I become a god in another world

Chapter 613 The undercurrent is surging
Chapter 613

Everyone has been exhausted physically and mentally during this period of time.

Although they relaxed for a short while when they were in Longyang County, Longyang County was not their destination, but just a temporary resting place - and the situation there was strange, and Zhao Fusheng even had a strange and bizarre dream, so naturally he couldn't completely relax mentally.

But Teikyo is different.

This is the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Bureau, under the feet of the emperor.

The capital at this time is different from what it was 58 years ago. It is safe now, and it is the destination of everyone's trip, so they felt relaxed when they arrived at the official inn.

The official posthouse of the Demon Suppression Bureau usually does not receive many people, but it is fully equipped inside.

The house is cleaned every day and the bedding is all brand new. When it is newly laid out, you can even smell the scent of the quilt after it has been dried in the sun, which is very reassuring.

The kitchen has a variety of food.

While the officer on duty at the Demon Suppression Station came to ask if they had eaten, Zhao Fusheng asked where the people from Changping County were now.

The officer was about fifty or sixty years old, with a slightly hunched back and a forced smile on his face. After hearing her question, he quickly understood the whole story and explained:

"The Lord Ding from Changping County that you mentioned does not live here."

His expression was quite strange when he said this, as if he was surprised that Zhao Fusheng would live here.

"Perhaps he has other properties in the Imperial Capital. However, I will have someone check after your instructions, and I will get a reply tomorrow morning."

If Ding Datong can enter Beijing smoothly this time, no accidents will happen anyway, so Zhao Fusheng is not worried and nodded when he heard it.

After a day's journey, everyone let down their guard and ordered some easily digestible side dishes. After eating, they washed up, turned off the lights, and went to bed.

That night Zhao Fusheng slept more peacefully than ever before.

On the second day, as soon as Meng Po entered the room, Zhao Fusheng opened his eyes.

"My Lord, sleep well this day."

Meng Po's eyes were sharp. Seeing that Zhao Fusheng had regained his spirits, she smiled and said something.

She was holding a basin of water with a brand new towel inside.

Zhao Fusheng smiled and said:
"You have to do these things yourself."

Meng Po shook her head:

"I think doing this kind of thing is very practical, and it's great to have the opportunity to do this--" When she said this, she looked at Zhao Fusheng gently, but after a moment, her eyes seemed to be looking through her at another 'person'.

Meng Po thought of her daughter.

If Shen Yishu had not had the accident that year, she would have taken care of her daughter in the same way. Unfortunately, such an opportunity will never come again.

All this is because of the paper man Zhang!
One day, she will make Paper Man Zhang pay for his blood debt with blood and return the lives of her daughter and everyone in the Sun family!

A faint smell of blood emanated from Meng Po's body.

But after a moment, she quickly restrained her out-of-control emotions and said with a smile:

"It seems that Longyang is not a good place for Feng Shui. Your Excellency can't rest well there. You can only sleep well after entering the capital."

While speaking, a strange expression appeared on Zhao Fusheng's face.

Meng Po paused and was about to ask:

"My Lord, how is this——"

Before he could finish his words, he saw that the ground under Zhao Fusheng's feet seemed to be infiltrated by black air, and in an instant the dust sank and turned into an abyss.

The shadow of hell spread outward from the shadow under her, quickly enveloping Meng Po, Kuai Manzhou and Chen Duozi who had just entered the room.

In the shadows, Grandma Xu, who had not been seen for only two days, quickly walked out from the darkness.

"Where's Ayu?" she asked.

If it had been a little while earlier, Zhao Fusheng would have found it difficult to answer her question.

At this point she replied:
"I'm going to meet her later and take her away from the Imperial Capital."

When Granny Xu heard this, her expression lightened up a little.

But she still had some things to say:

"Master Zhao, Ah Yu is still young. How long has she lived in Zhongdu City? She doesn't know much about worldly affairs. Why did you let her go out alone?"

She and Xu Yu have been together for many years and have a very deep relationship. They are not biological grandparents, but they are like biological children.

When he thought about it at this moment, Zhao Fusheng inexplicably felt guilty.

It’s not a good time to explain the matter of time and space reincarnation to Grandma Xu at this moment.

If this old woman knew that she had placed Xu Yu 58 years ago, she would not care whether she was in line with history or not. With Grandma Xu's extremely strong character, she would definitely fight with her.

"Some circumstances are special. I'll explain them to you later."

Zhao Fusheng answered vaguely:
"I have done what I promised you. I brought Xu Yu out of the ghost realm. I will keep her by my side from now on."

Only then did Granny Xu look around and, seeing the surrounding scene, a look of satisfaction appeared in her eyes.

"This doesn't look like a house in the palace."

She looked left and right curiously, but unfortunately, because she was in the ghost realm and could not step out of hell, she could not touch many things. She could only look at them to satisfy her eyes.

"This is where?"

"The official post station set up by the Imperial Capital's Demon Suppression Bureau is a place for ghost controllers from outside the Demon Suppression Bureau to stay." Zhao Fusheng explained in detail.

Granny Xu nodded, and finally said unhappily:
"Master Zhao, you took me in for a while, but why do you always lock me up and not let me talk to anyone——"

Po Meng smiled and said:

"Old sister, you went through a lot of hardships to get out of Zang Junji's hell, and then you encountered another ghost case. After that, you temporarily entrusted A Yu to the Demon Suppression Division to help take care of him. As soon as you finished your work, you rushed back to the Imperial Capital to pick him up. How could you have time to chat with others?"

Granny Xu is just outspoken and will speak her mind when she is dissatisfied.

She had originally had a good impression of Zhao Fusheng. After listening to Meng Po's explanation, she realized that she had misunderstood Zhao Fusheng and felt bad for a moment.

However, she was too irritable to apologize, so she looked at the basin in Meng Po's hand. Just as she was about to speak, Meng Po handed the basin to Chen Duozi and signaled with her eyes that she and Zhao Fusheng should wash up first. Finally, she pulled Xu Po and said:
"By the way, since we last parted, we have encountered some problems, and your old acquaintance——"

With Meng Po's help, Grandma Xu quickly diverted her attention.

Chen Duozi breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhao Fusheng couldn't help but laugh.

After she finished washing up, Granny Xu talked with Po Meng for a while and learned about the existence of the seventeen levels of hell and the whereabouts of Zang Junji. She even learned that Concubine Du's uterus was indeed filled with resurrected evil spirits as Zhang Yunzhong had expected, and that the evil spirits were in a mutual restraint with Zang Junji. Her face turned gloomy when she learned that.

……

After talking to others, Grandma Xu was satisfied.

When she learned that Zhao Fusheng was going to pick up Xu Yu later, she returned to the eleventh level of hell, but before leaving, she said with full energy:

"I'm not dead yet. Next time, let me out to talk more often. I'm not in jail."

Zhao Fusheng had no choice but to nod:

"Row."

There was a dark light in her eyes:
"But if you want to come out more often, you have to help out next time we handle a case." Granny Xu vaguely heard the hidden meaning in her words.

But the old woman was confident in her ability and did not take her words to heart. She said proudly:
"Don't worry, I have plenty of strength and methods. During these years in the palace, I have killed and killed those ghosts again and again. There is no way to stop them."

After that, he complained:
"You're still talking about this. For some reason, a lot of new people suddenly came to the palace a few days ago. I spent a long time cleaning them up. I was busy all day long—"

They were the ghost riders who died in the headless ghost disaster in Zhongdu City. After the evil ghosts went out of control, some of them were taken into Zhao Fusheng's hell.

Her hell is already overcrowded with ghosts, some of whom have fallen into the eleventh level of the ghost realm and are being suppressed by Granny Xu.

While she was chattering, Zhao Fusheng took her back into the ghost realm.

Seeing Granny Xu leave, Granny Meng smiled and said:
"Sir, this Sister Xu has a bad temper, but she is a righteous person. If she joins the Ghost Disaster in the future, she will be able to help you, Sir."

Zhao Fusheng nodded.

When everyone came out of the room, the inn had already prepared the meal. Liu Yizhen and others had already gotten up. They were all very curious about the Imperial Capital and planned to pick up Xu Yu today and travel around the Imperial Capital for a few days.

Just then, a messenger from the inn came to report that someone from the Demon Suppression Division came to pay a visit to Zhao Fusheng.

Wu Shaochun said:

"Maybe it's Lord Ding."

As soon as he finished speaking, they heard several footsteps coming from outside. Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Ding Datong who looked nervous.

From the outbreak of the ghost disaster in Shangyang County to the time when both parties acted separately until now, it has not been a long time. However, because of the law of reincarnation among everyone, they went back to the past 58 years ago, and too many things happened. When they met again at this time, they felt as if they were in a different world.

Ding Datong walked in quickly, and when he saw Zhao Fusheng and others, his eyes lit up. He first showed joy on his face, then he quickly looked around the room and realized that the most noisy Zhang Chuanshi was missing.

He was startled, and did not dare to ask any more questions, so he quickly said:
"I knew that you, my Lord, would be blessed by heaven and would definitely subdue the evil spirit and enter the capital safely."

Zhao Fusheng responded, then looked at the others:

"Did everything go smoothly after your last visit to Beijing? How about the Lu family?"

"Temporarily place them in a house in the Imperial Capital."

Ding Datong was from Feng Guangchong in Xuzhou and also had a place to stay in Beijing.

Since he separated from Zhao Fusheng in Shangyang County last time, he, Tao Lifang, Hu Rong and three others brought the Lu family and Li Dongping to Beijing. The journey was smooth and they settled in Beijing three days later.

At that time, Ding Datong was well aware of the strength of Shangyang County and made two plans.

He glanced at Chen Duozi.

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but after not seeing this woman for a few days, it seemed that the woman's aura was more terrifying than before, and she had completely lost her previous cowardly look. When Ding Datong looked at her, her first reaction was no longer to shyly lower her head, purse her lips and smile uneasily, but to look at him frankly, and even nodded to Ding Datong, which made Ding Datong extremely surprised.

"I think if the case goes smoothly, we can meet again after entering Beijing, and then we can discuss the Lu family's stay or departure."

He paused and then said:
"If you are delayed by something," Ding Datong said politely, "I plan to stay in the Imperial Capital for about 40 days, receive the imperial award, and then bring the Lu family back to Changping County."

The people present were all smart, and they all understood the meaning behind his words:

If Zhao Fusheng fails in handling the case and dies in Shangyang County, he will also settle the Lu family.

Although Chen Duozi is a ghost rider and might follow Zhao Fusheng back to Wan'an County in the future, she is not included in the Soul Register after all, and there is no list of her in the Demon Suppression Bureau. If she dies in the ghost disaster in Shangyang County, according to the rules of the Demon Suppression Bureau, her family will not be compensated.

Ding Datong's statement at this time undoubtedly shows that he intends to take care of her family.

After realizing this, Chen Duozi thanked him softly.

Zhao Fusheng also said:
"Your arrangement is good."

Ding Da was delighted by her praise. Then he saw Zhao Fusheng arrive in Beijing safely and wanted to find out the whole story of the Shangyang County ghost case. But he hesitated and decided to talk about it later.

"How long do you plan to stay in Beijing this time, sir?"

"I have some things to do in Beijing, and I'll try to finish them within ten days. During this time, I need you to do a few things for me."

As soon as Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, Ding Datong showed a happy expression:

"Please make the arrangements, my Lord."

He also wanted to join Zhao Fusheng, but was afraid of being excluded by her.

Ding Datong had traveled all the way from Changping County. He had witnessed Zhao Fusheng's methods and knew how powerful she was. But when he saw that she was able to escape from the ghost disaster in Shangyang County, he became even more convinced of her.

If I can stay with her in the future, my chances of survival will naturally be greatly improved.

"I promised Zhu Guangling in Shangyang County that I would take care of his family. The ghost case in Shangyang County has been resolved, and Zhu Guangling died in the ghost disaster. I have to fulfill this promise." Zhao Fusheng said:

"I want you to find the Zhu family members within ten days, and have them collect their belongings, and then move the whole family to Wan'an County."

Ding Datong nodded without hesitation:
"it is good!"

Zhao Fusheng smiled:

"There is another thing. I promised Lord Fengdu that I would investigate a case for him privately. When we leave Beijing, I will leave separately from you. You, Tao Lifang, and Hu Rong will still escort the people from the Zhu and Lu families."

Ding Datong was a little surprised to hear this. He did not agree immediately this time. Instead, he hesitated for a moment, bit his cheek, and said:

"Sir, if we just go back the same way, I don't think it will be too dangerous. Why don't we let Lao Tao and Hu Rong escort the Zhu and Lu families, and I will just stay with you, Sir."

It is rare for him to make such a statement.

But Zhao Fusheng did not agree, but shook his head:

"I have other helpers. Just do what I tell you to do and ensure the safety of Zhu and Lu's families."

Ding Datong then nodded.

After saying a few more words, the officer came in again and reported that the carriage sent by the Demon Suppression Division to welcome Zhao Fusheng and others into the palace had already stopped at the inn.

Everyone packed up and filed out.

This time Feng Du and Xie Jingsheng both came to pick them up. After they got on the carriage, Feng Du said:
"It's not far from here to Zhongdu City. Due to the special situation of the ghost disaster in Shangyang County, the emperor's imperial decree on you should be postponed for the time being."

He explained:
"This case is important. The Demon Suppression Department must first discuss and come up with a set of rules, and then the court must go through the procedures."

Zhao Fusheng nodded.

Before going to Beijing, her goal was to become a Jin general, but after learning about Zang Junji's past achievements, she no longer cared about the title of Jin general.

She glanced at Xie Jingsheng, who said dissatisfiedly:

"What does this look mean?"

Feng Du laughed at Xie Jingsheng's words, then seemed to remember something and said seriously:

"By the way, the Demon Suppression Bureau has complicated internal affairs. The case in Shangyang County this time may be..." He paused for a moment and did not continue.

Liu Yizhen felt something was wrong and asked:

"Is there any controversy over the case in Shangyang County?"

Fengdu nodded:

"In short, there may be some unfriendly people. I'm telling you in advance that you should be aware of this. However, merit is merit after all, and I will take care of the matter for you as a general later."

His words not only failed to make Zhao Fusheng smile, but made her frown.
