I become a god in another world

Chapter 253 Joining the Government Office
Chapter 252

From Fan Bisheng's previous reaction, Meng Po vaguely realized that the trouble she had caused this time was not a small one.

She has lived long enough and has experienced many things.

In recent years, she has set up a stall outside the Begging Alley. The Begging Alley is a mixed bag of good and bad, full of evil, including kidnappers, robbers, and thieves. She is used to seeing all kinds of evil in human nature.

He had caused a big disaster today. Even if Zhao Fusheng understood the truth, he might not be angry.

In fact, she was still talking to him at this time, with no strange or disgusted look on her face, and a calm tone, which was enough to show that this adult had good self-control.

But Zhao Fusheng didn't say it, but she didn't dare not mention it.

As soon as these words came out of her mouth, Mrs. Meng saw Zhao Fusheng smile.

"Let's see what we say about this."

Zhao Fusheng did not directly answer what Mrs. Meng said. What she said made Po Meng a little confused, so she smiled bitterly and said:

"Please give me some advice, sir."

"I mentioned the ghost case in Fengmen Village earlier, and then you saw your daughter appear, and then you did act strange. Then the sky suddenly turned dark, and then the moon turned red——"

Zhao Fusheng pointed outside when he spoke:
"The entire Wan'an County should see it."

In addition to the people in the Demon Suppression Division who were frightened, everyone in the county, villages and towns who had seen the red moon should have been frightened.

Many people are afraid of this wave of red moons, which will have a profound impact. Maybe the few remaining gentry and merchants in the county will privately flee the county one after another.

From this point of view, Po Meng's accident had a series of consequences.

In addition, there may be some unknown events happening.

Something strange happened to the plaque of the Demon Suppressing Division - and Zhao Fusheng remembered that Fan Bisheng mentioned a key word when he mentioned the red moon: A Hundred Ghosts Walking in the Night.

In other words, under the shining of the red moon, a large number of evil ghosts will be revived.

Once the ghosts revive, they will cause great harm to the people in the city, and this will also have great consequences.

She thought about the two big ghosts in the Confucius Temple. She wondered if they were affected by the red moon and acted strangely.

……

The more Zhao Fusheng talked, the more frightened Po Meng became. She was about to speak, but she saw that this adult did not seem to take these troubles to heart, but said again:

"But did you mean to do that?"

"No, it's not."

Po Meng waved her hands desperately:

"I would never dare to do that."

After she finished speaking, Zhao Fusheng smiled slightly:
"Since you didn't mean to cause trouble, what does the appearance of the red moon have to do with you?"

"..."

Her words left Meng Po speechless, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"I suspect that you do have the mark of a fierce ghost on your body, but since you are in Wan'an County, you are a citizen of Wan'an County. It is my problem to solve the ghost disaster, not your responsibility." Zhao Fusheng's words made Po Meng After being stunned for a moment, the hands on his legs slowly relaxed and then started shaking.

"Have you paid the taxes to the county and the Demon Suppression Department on weekdays?" Seeing that she was silent, Zhao Fusheng asked again.

"All handed over." When Po Meng heard this, she already understood the meaning of Zhao Fusheng's words.

Her eyes were moist and she responded softly.

"That's fine."

Zhao Fusheng stopped talking about this issue.

"I suspect that the red moon is strange, maybe it's the same as what you just saw -" she thought for a while and said:

"It has something to do with the image of your daughter wearing a wedding robe."

Perhaps it was because she had heard Zhao Fusheng mention the Fengmen Village ghost case 43 years ago, and had also experienced the shock of the blood moon, Meng Po was not as shocked as before when she heard these words. Instead, she showed a sad look and nodded: "Sir, just tell me, I can bear the worst result."

In such a world, she left her husband's family alone to look for her daughter. Not only was she deviant in the eyes of the world, but she was also very bold and definitely not an ordinary woman.

Since Po Meng now said that she could withstand the worst outcome, Zhao Fusheng also believed it.

"Then I will continue to talk about the ghost case in Fengmen Village 43 years ago."

Zhao Fusheng said:

"After this ghost case occurred, the person who handled the case was Xie Jingsheng, the commander sent by the state and county."

Po Meng held her breath and listened carefully to Zhao Fusheng's narration, fearing that she would miss every word she said.

"According to the case records from that year, when the evil ghost killed someone, a strange red shoe would appear on the victim's feet before he died——"

Speaking of this, Zhao Fusheng took a deep look at Po Meng.

When Po Meng heard what she said, she was shocked.

There were waves of dizziness in front of her eyes.

Although she had not been with Zhao Fusheng for a long time, she had a general understanding of this adult's temperament.

Zhao Fusheng not only summoned her to the Demon Suppression Division, but also invited her to join the government office and brought up an old ghost case with her. This must be because this adult believed that this case was somehow related to the disappearance of his daughter, and She has certain certainty and evidence, otherwise she would not act rashly.

But when Po Meng really heard that "a fierce ghost kills someone" and that the victim wore "a red shoe" before she died, she still felt unspeakable fear in her heart.

She thought of the phantom of her daughter she had seen earlier.

Shen Yishu was wearing a red wedding robe, his face was pale and stiff, and he was wearing a pair of red shoes, reaching out to ask for help.

"As soon as the red shoes appear under the victim's feet, the victim will disappear in just a few breaths." Zhao Fusheng kept looking at Po Meng.

She did not interrupt her words, forcing herself to be calm, but the hands resting on her knees kept changing between fists and palms. It was obvious that her heart was not as calm as she appeared on the surface.

The impact of the 'Red Shoes Ghost' on Po Meng should be no less than when she heard about the ghost case in Fengmen Village.

But as Meng Po said before, she did not lose control this time. She clenched her hands into fists and pressed them on her knees, anxiously waiting for Zhao Fusheng's next words.

"After a person dies, the red shoes disappear immediately, leaving a reddish-brown bloody footprint where the person died."

When Zhao Fusheng said this, he paused for a moment, leaving some time for Po Meng to digest the information.

Seeing that she had calmed down a little, he said again:
"Xie Jingsheng had someone measure the ghost's footprints at that time. They were ten inches long -" Before she could finish her words, Po Meng felt dizzy in front of her eyes.

She seemed to be unable to hold on any longer and leaned to the side.

The moment she was about to fall, she stretched out her hand to support the table.

The tea cup on the table was pushed over, and the porcelain was shattered on the ground.

The hot tea spilled, and Po Meng knelt down, hurriedly trying to clean up the broken pieces of the cup:

"I'm sorry, sir—I, I—"

She didn't know what she was talking about. After picking up a few pieces, she made a sudden movement, then squatted on the spot and froze for a moment.

After a long time, she suddenly wiped her tears, adjusted her mood, and said:

"Not long before my daughter disappeared, I happened to have her feet measured and made a new pair of shoes -" Zhao Fusheng's hand trying to help her froze in mid-air. After Meng Po finished speaking, she suppressed her grief and collected all the tiny pieces of porcelain. Stacked in the palm of your hand:
"I remember exactly ten inches, exactly."

After Mrs. Meng finished speaking, she stood up and sat back down.

Zhao Fusheng nodded:
"This incident happened a long time ago, but this time I went to Fengmen Village to find the witness of the ghost case back then, and I also learned some life stories about the resurrected ghost from his mouth."

She roughly recounted the news she heard from Old Man Zhang, and finally said:
"If he is not talking nonsense, then the evil ghost originally started because of Wu Laocai in Huanggang Village. Before I left Fengmen Village, I ordered Kong Youde from Changtiao Town to take the old man into the house. I wanted him to go to Huanggang Village to inquire about information and see if he could Can't find any useful clues."

At this point, Zhao Fusheng finally revealed the reason why he summoned Po Meng to Suppress the Demon Division:

"This old ghost case has many details similar to your missing daughter." She detailed:

"Through inquiries, visits, and confessions, we can now learn that Gui is similar in age to Shen Yishu, both are women, and the crime occurred 43 years ago, which was when your daughter disappeared."

In addition, due to the evil spirit at work, when Zhao Fusheng did not mention the red shoes, the scene when Po Meng 'saw' her daughter asking for help earlier was also when Shen Yishu was wearing a wedding robe.

Various clues point to the possibility that the Red Shoe Ghost Case is related to Shen Yishu.

"Especially the scene where you interacted with a ghost before has greatly increased the probability of this possibility." Zhao Fusheng said calmly:
"This is why I suggest you join the Demon Suppression Division."

She analyzed:

"If Shen Yishu died unfortunately many years ago, and then the evil ghost revived."

According to Zhao Fusheng’s experience in dealing with ghosts in the past six months, “Once a person becomes a ghost after death, the remaining obsessions and certain people and things that have affected her/him during life may become a ghost. The law of killing."

"If the Red Shoe Ghost is really Shen Yishu, you and it are mother and daughter. You two will have a close relationship long ago. One day in the future -"

Zhao Fusheng did not say the rest of the words, but from the previous scene, Po Meng had already guessed what she had left unfinished.

"Besides, there is one more thing -"

Zhao Fusheng thought of Meng Po's mention that when Shen Yishu disappeared 43 years ago, someone reported that a short and thin old man in black robe had spoken to two girls.

"I suspect that this incident was not an accident, but a man-made tragedy——"

Images of paper figures appeared in her mind.

This man has a surly and gloomy personality, and behaves strangely. Since Zhang Xiongwu, the Zhang family has been involved in many cases related to big ghosts.

Liu Huacheng, the headless ghost, the stand-in ghost, the beggar ghost, as well as the Kuai Liang Village and Hongquan troupes earlier all appeared as paper figures.

Zhao Fusheng suspected that the disappearance of the Shen family's daughter 43 years ago was most likely related to Zhang Xiongwu.

The Zhang family has created so many ghosts, and their intentions are not trivial. This person will eventually become a disaster when he is alive.

Zhao Fusheng frowned.

At this moment, a cold little hand came over silently and touched her eyebrows.

She instinctively tilted her head back and reached out a hand to grab the little hand.

"..."

"..."

The big one and the small one looked at each other, one with doubts on his face, and the other with innocent eyes.

Neither of them spoke.

On the other side, Po Meng was a little distracted.

"Red Shoe Ghost——Kill——"

Po Meng's thoughts were not on her own safety.

She suddenly smiled bitterly:
"Sir, if my daughter really dies tragically and the evil ghost comes back to life, has she killed many people?"

Zhao Fusheng, who was staring at Kuai Manzhou with big eyes, quickly let go and turned around.

When she turned around, Kuai Manzhou immediately had an opportunity to take advantage of him.

The little girl's hand flexibly broke free from Zhao Fusheng's palm, and two small fingers fell on her frowning eyebrows, rubbing them gently.

"..."

Zhao Fusheng was stunned for a moment. Kuai Manzhou seemed to be unable to exert himself while sitting down, so he simply stood up, stood behind Zhao Fusheng, and obediently rubbed her temples for her.

Zhao Fusheng's body stiffened for a moment.

She could feel the child's hands being cold and trembling slightly, as if he was afraid of her rejection and didn't dare to exert any force.

She sighed silently and tried to relax her body, not rejecting Kuai Manzhou's kindness.

The child received her acquiescence, his eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a small smile.

“A man dies like a lamp going out.”

Zhao Fusheng returned his mind to the conversation with Po Meng:

"Once the evil ghost revives, the ghost can only rely on instinct to kill. It has no consciousness and memory, and naturally has no emotion or reluctance."

"I thought the warlocks back then were talking nonsense, but it turned out that it was actually true——"

Po Meng seemed greatly stimulated.

Zhao Fusheng said:

"It's not true. People are people and ghosts are ghosts."

She thought for a while:

"I don't dare to go further. As for the ghost-related cases I handle, every ghost that wakes up is involuntarily."

After saying that, he laughed:
"Including my parents."

"Have you seen my parents? They also died at the hands of the evil spirits. After their death, the evil spirits revived and were controlled by me."

"..." Po Meng was stunned for a moment, thinking of the two ghosts she had seen carrying the ghost door panels on their backs. At that time, she felt that those two people were a bit weird and chilling. At this time, she heard Zhao Fusheng say this , she realized that she had seen a ghost.

"When you are alive, you are too weak. You are unable to resist when you are bullied. You cannot control your fate. After death, only when the evil ghost wakes up can you go on a killing spree to take revenge."

This statement is not only applicable to the doorkeeper couple, but also to the fourth lady Zhuang and the red shoe ghost.

"The world forces people to become ghosts, and after becoming ghosts, they massacre human beings——"

Zhao Fusheng hesitated to speak, but in the end he let out a long sigh:
"Mother Meng, it was not your daughter who made the mistake. The person who should repent may not have received the retribution he deserves."

Her words not only made Po Meng stunned, but also Kuai Manzhou, who was massaging Zhao Fusheng, froze.

After a while, the little girl suddenly seemed to come back to her senses, and her little hands became stronger.

"Is that so?"

Po Meng seemed to be crying but not crying, so she murmured a question.

She didn't expect anyone to answer her words. Soon after, she restrained her emotions and said to Zhao Fusheng:

"Anyway, since you mentioned the red shoes and suspected my Yishu, if my daughter really resurrects after death and causes murder, I, I will take care of it."

After saying this, she seemed to have made up her mind:

"My lord said before that if I join the Demon Suppression Division, does it still count?"
