Chapter 195 Evil Ghost
1.
As the tea shop shop said, Taizhou City was already panicked. Anyone who could still walk was planning to escape.
Taizhou was already in chaos. When Yu Shisan and I entered Taizhou City, the city gate guards were slackened, and the soldiers guarding the city gate looked nervous and nervous. Occasionally, a few people whispered to plan something, and there was always a guard standing by the side. Even if they were guarding, they looked absent-minded.
Seeing that a few people were discussing not far away, I curiously approached and wanted to hear what they were saying. Unexpectedly, as soon as I approached me, the few people appeared, and exchanged their eyes and dispersed.
Everyone is very alert.
I grabbed a passerby in a hurry on the street and said, "Dare you ask..." Before I could ask, the man hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, "I don't know, I don't know anything." After that, he lowered his head and left as if he ran away.
From receiving the message from Liu Wufeng to the fact that we met in Taizhou City in just a few days, what exactly happened here? We have no way to know. But judging from everyone's performance, there must be something more serious than what Liu Wufeng said, otherwise people would not be panicked, so that even the people in the government would be nervous and whisper in a low voice.
Yu Shisan is not the kind of personality that knows how to take care of other people's emotions. When he saw that I couldn't find out the news, he grabbed a fat man who passed by and asked, "Where is the haunted?"
He asked directly, and he was frightened by a fat man with a rosy face as white as paper. He shook Yu Shisan's hand vigorously and wanted to leave without answering. However, Yu Shisan rushed to him in two steps, pressed the fat man's chest with a cold dagger, staring at the fat man with a pair of eyes that were even more terrifying than the ferocious beast, and asked, "I ask you, why don't you answer me?"
The fat man actually limped, collapsed on the ground, begging for mercy: "Young hero, please spare me, young hero!"
I couldn't stand it and thought that Yu Shisan was young and could not make any moves, so he could not make people die. Since I became his master, I had the responsibility to teach him how to behave and do things. I shouted "Stop" at Yu Shisan. Yu Shisan put away the knife, and the fat man's face did not improve at all. I stepped forward to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, I just wanted to find out what was born in this city? Why are everyone in a panic?"
The fat man swept around vigilantly, perhaps feeling that there were few people around him, so he asked in a low voice: "Are you from other places?"
I said, "Yes."
The fat man said, "You go quickly. This Taizhou City is now a deadly place and cannot be kept."
I asked, "What happened? But it was haunted because of this?"
The fat man's blood color that had just recovered a little dissipated immediately, his face pale, and he whispered: "Speak softly, this is a taboo in Taizhou City, and you should not say it out loud."
Yu Shisan said: "What are you afraid of? We are here to catch ghosts."
The fat man looked at Yu Shisan and said disdainfully: "You are the only one? There are so many heroes in the Cang Sect that can't stand it. You are so crazy about your words at a young age. I'm afraid that no matter how you die, you may not know."
Perhaps he forgot that Yu Shisan had just pressed his chest with a dagger, so he dared to laugh at Yu Shisan like this. Next, Yu Shisan used his own way to make the case for that.
The fat man recalled it and deepened his impression.
The fat man screamed. Yu Shisan's dagger pierced an inch below the fat man's heart. It was very shallow, but blood still bleeded out. I hurriedly grabbed Yu Shisan's hand and shouted, "Why hurt people?"
Yu Shisan said: "He laughed at me."
I had no time to argue with Yu Shisan, and pushed him aside and kept a safe distance from the fat man. I stood in the middle, held the fat man who was screaming, and said with concern: "Are you okay?"
The fat man seemed very scared and begged: "Please don't kill me, I don't know anything."
I glanced at Yu Shisan coldly. His face was calm and he had no intention of reflecting on his bad behavior. I turned to comfort the fat man and said, "Don't be afraid if I am here." This is what I often use to comfort Shu Yao. Now I am using it on this strange fat man, and suddenly I feel very strange.
But this seemed to work very well for the fat man. His eyes were full of gratitude, and almost tears were snatching the frame. He said, "Hero, can you let me go?"
I said, "No."
The fat man said, "What the hell are you going to do?"
I said, "I just want to find out about the haunted?"
The fat man's face was twisted into a ball due to difficulty and pain, and he said, "Why do you ask me?"
Yu Shisan said: "You'd better answer honestly unless you want to die." The fat man was nervous again.
I glared at Yu Shisan, continued to comfort the fat man, and said, "Don't be afraid. Tell me, what's going on in Taizhou City?"
The fat man looked at Yu Shisan carefully, then looked at me again, sighed, his face as if dead, and said, "Okay. About a month ago, many people died overnight in several villages around Taizhou City. They were all stiff and covered in frost. It is said that when the government arrived, the dead bodies were still cold in their tentacles, as if they were frozen."
I said, "I know all this. What happened later?"
The fat man whispered: "Later...thing became more strange. The government searched for evil people everywhere, but all the yamen who were sent out had turned into ice men without exception, with no wounds on their bodies, and they died extremely miserably." When he said this, the fat man swallowed, as if he had been plucked up a lot of courage and continued: "From then, no one in the yamen in the government dared to take on this job again. Just so, Zhang Debiao, the chief inspector of Taizhou Prefecture, had some connection with the Kuocang Sect, so he asked the Kuocang Sect to take action and help the government arrest the murderer."
Kuocang Sect?!
This is not surprising. Taizhou City is very close to Kuocang Mountain, and Taizhou Prefecture seeks help from the people of the Jianghu on the spot, which is not surprising.
But what happened next to the fat man was very surprised and even scary.
The fat man said that hundreds of people from Kuocang Sect gathered in Taizhou City. The Taizhou Magistrate was very happy. In order to express his gratitude, he held a banquet in the government yamen and entertained a group of heroes from the Kuocang Sect. Unexpectedly, the Kuocang Sect ate in Taizhou Yamen for three days. Not only did he not want to leave the city to arrest the murderers, but he asked the Taizhou Yamen and others to move out of Taizhou City as soon as possible.
The Taizhou magistrate was furious and scolded the Kuocang Sect for being shameless and betrayal. But what was unexpected was that the Taizhou Prefecture Yamen was suddenly attacked by a strong cold wind, and in an instant
The grass and trees died, and the ground was covered with frost. Everyone was surprised. Suddenly, a strange man with a disheveled head, a red-eyed and extremely ferocious face rushed into the government office. With a wave of his hand, the Taizhou government office went to fall into the ice cave. The magistrate and the guards all became ice men.
From then on, the weird man took over the Taizhou government office. He threatened the Kuocang Sect and the officials inside and outside the government office to submit, demanding that they be tight inside and loose outside, as if nothing happened. However, Taizhou City died every day, and people disappeared for no reason every day. Everyone fell into great fear, but no one dared to resist. Because the bad man was too powerful, his ability was almost not as good as that of a mortal, so everyone called him an evil ghost.
Gradually, some people wanted to escape and leave Taizhou City. But the evil ghost seemed to have set up countless eyes in Taizhou City. As long as someone escaped, he would suddenly appear and freeze the escaped person into an ice man.
The fat man sighed: "Hero, this Taizhou City is easy to get in, but it is difficult to get out. You have come to the wrong place."
"That's right!" I was so excited. The fat man looked confused and asked, "That's right? I've said this, but you still think it's right?"
That's right. I'm even more convinced that it was the Mahabudama mantra. The secret book I lost in my hand should be the only one that exists in the world. If you find the "evil ghost" mentioned by the fat man, you will definitely find out Shu Yao's whereabouts.
However, a strong sense of uneasiness arose in my heart. From the fat man's mouth, I learned that the man had almost reached a point of being criticized for practicing the Mahabudama mantra. Wouldn't Ruoshuyao be in his hands...
No! No! No!
I hurriedly interrupted my random thoughts. Shu Yao will be safe and she will return to me safely.
I said to Yu Shisan: "Let's go to Taizhou Prefecture."
"You are crazy?" the fat man roared in a low voice, and he said, "Do you know that evil... that person is in the Taizhou Prefecture. Wouldn't you seek death if you go to Taizhou Prefecture?!"
I ignored it and took Yu Shisan toward the Taizhou Prefecture.
2.
Taizhou City is not big. Compared with Lin'an, it is indeed like a small place. But it is also very large, with alleys and streets crisscrossing and the terrain is very complex.
Pedestrians on the road avoided talking. Even in the face of Yu Shisan's death threat, no one was willing to tell me the specific location of the Taizhou Prefecture Office.
I can't really ask Yu Shisan to kill them.
Just when I was at a loss, I suddenly saw a figure swaying by at the end of the alley.
Although it was a flash, I still felt that the generous and sturdy figure made me feel familiar.
I took Yu Shisan to chase after him. After chasing an alley, the figure seemed to have noticed my tracking and stopped at the end of the alley.
I didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend, so I hurriedly hid.
"Who is sneaky, why don't you come out and let people see it clearly." The voice is thick and powerful, full of energy.
I had heard who he was and was thinking about whether to show up to meet him. But I heard him shouting like a lion, "Let me come out quickly!"
The sound was particularly shocking, and even the wall behind him was shaken by a lot of dust.
I shook my head and smiled bitterly, walked out slowly, bowed and said, "Brother Zhou, don't be fine!"
