Chapter 77: I feel like being targeted by my grandfather
The atmosphere in the hall was a little awkward.
The Luxes couldn't help frowning.
It's not that he is suspicious of Qin Shaoyou, but he is worried: the incense for Jiutian Dangmo Patriarch is actually gone? Is the patriarch refusing to help us? Or is the case involving the vampire too tricky to handle?
Zhu Xiucai was keenly aware of this unusual atmosphere.
He helped find an excuse and said, "It is estimated that these incense sticks are damp, Lao Zhang, you can get three sticks of incense sticks for the adults again. Pick the good ones, but don't take the damp incense sticks again."
Zhang Li Shi agreed, and immediately went to pick the incense.
The other fighters breathed a sigh of relief:
"It turned out that the incense was damp, so I said, how could the incense go out inexplicably."
"Huh... scare me, I thought it was the Patriarch Jiutian Dangmo who refused to accept our incense."
Only Qin Shaoyou remained silent.
Because he knew that the three sticks of incense just now were not damp.
He has the talent of [Bright Eyes]. Is there any problem with Xiang, so he can't see it?
Qin Shaoyou looked at the statue of Jiutian Dangmo Patriarch and murmured in his heart: Could it be that Jiutian Dangmo Patriarch refused to accept my incense? No, he took it all last time. Although blood and tears fell from the back, wasn't that caused by the Black Lotus Sect? It has nothing to do with me either...
Just thinking about it, Zhang Lishi picked out three new incense sticks, lit them, and handed them over.
Qin Shaoyou also wanted to try again, so he took the incense, bowed again, and put the incense into the incense burner.
This time he didn't turn around and just stared at the three incense sticks in the censer.
After a few breaths, the three incense sticks that were burning very well suddenly disappeared.
The wrestlers, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't help whispering, all guessing what was going on.
Qin Shaoyou raised his head again and looked at the statue of Jiutian Dangmo Patriarch.
Patriarch, do you always do it on purpose? a bit too much...
At this time, Zhang Lishi next to him silently ordered three incense sticks and handed them to him.
Qin Shaoyou took the incense blankly and looked at Zhang Shi.
Zhang Li Shi also looked at him.
Qin Shaoyou really wanted to ask Zhang Lishi whether he would do things. At this time, what would he be doing so diligently and actively?
What if the incense sticks in it and goes out again? How can I explain this?
Just embarrassed, Monk Ma came to the hall with two wrestlers.
He didn't notice the strange atmosphere in the hall, and handed over to Qin Shaoyou to report: "Sir, we have escorted your parents to the inner house in the backyard."
"Thanks for your hard work."
Qin Shaoyou took the opportunity to walk to Monk Ma's side and gave him the three incense sticks in his hand.
"Go and put incense on the statue of Jiutian Dangmo Patriarch, and ask him to bless us with a smooth trial."
"Okay." Although Monk Ma didn't understand why he asked him to offer incense, he nodded and agreed, took the incense and worshipped the statue of the ancestor of Jiutian Dangmo, and then inserted it into the incense burner.
Everyone was staring at the censer.
After this, Monk Ma turned around and was stunned: "What's wrong with you guys?"
No one paid any attention to him, they were all looking to see if the three incense sticks would go out again.
After waiting for a while, the incense didn't go out. After the rising smoke, it was sucked into the body by the ancestor of Jiutian Dangmo.
It really is targeting me!
Qin Shaoyou looked at the statue of Jiutian Dangmo Patriarch, his eyes full of resentment.
Mingming received my incense last time. Your heart has changed too quickly, right? I can't really blame the blood and tears from my eyes, right?
The statue of the ancestor of Jiutian Dangmo stared at him, the ancient well had no waves and no changes.
The wrestlers came back to their senses one after another, and they couldn't help but discuss, why did the first two incense offerings fail, but they succeeded when they changed to monks?
Qin Shaoyou made an excuse: "Maybe it's because when I came back with the blood ghost, I smeared some of its ghost blood on my hands, and I was disliked by the ancestor of Jiutian Dangmo."
For this reason, I can barely explain it.
Only Qin Shaoyou knew that things would not be so simple.
The ancestor of Jiutian Dangmo refused to accept his incense, probably for another reason.
Is it because of his identity as a transmigrator? Or because of the mysterious recipe in his head?
It can't be because he eats demons, right? The other people in the Demon Suppression Division did not eat less.
At this time, Zhu Xiucai greeted everyone: "Okay, let's not discuss it. Since the ancestor of Jiutian Dangmo has accepted our incense, let's quickly interrogate the blood ghosts. Old Liao, come on."
Liao Lishi responded, and he took out the torture tools he had just borrowed from the torture room, specially used to deal with ghosts, and placed them in front of the blood ghosts.
The Luxes also stopped talking.
Qin Shaoyou suppressed the doubts in his heart, walked to the **** ghost, raised his hand and pointed to Yan Liu, who was dead beside him, and asked, "Who told you to kill him?"
The blood ghost just stared at Qin Shaoyou fiercely without saying a word.
Qin Shaoyou raised a few more questions, no matter whether it was coercion or lure, the vampire wouldn't open his mouth.
Zhu Xiucai suggested: "Sir, this fellow's mouth is quite hard. Should he be punished, let's see if he can still bite his teeth and not speak."
Qin Shaoyou was about to agree when a footstep sounded suddenly.
A group of people appeared in the hall.
The leader was an acquaintance - Xue Qingshan's cronie, the general banner Xu Ba'an.
Xu Baan went to take over the Wujiabao before. After secretly bringing the people and property of the Wujia back to the Demon Suppression Division, he has been in charge of interrogating the Wujia family and investigating the forces behind the Wujia for the past few days.
Xue Qingshan led the team to Mianyuan County, but he didn't go with him, but stayed at the town of Yaosi Shou's house.
He came here now because he listened to the report of his subordinates, saying that Qin Shaoyou had caught a ghost and came back for trial, so he came to see the specific situation and see if there was anything he could help.
"Master Xu." Qin Shaoyou bowed his hands.
Xu Baan smiled and waved his hand, very enthusiastic: "Hi, what's your name, Mr. Xu, I have a good relationship with your brother-in-law, and I'm a few years older than you. You can just call me Brother Xu."
Because the blood ghost was tied into a zongzi shape by the ghost chain and ink bucket thread, Xu Baan didn't recognize it at a glance, but recognized the deceased Yan Liu, and his expression changed suddenly.
"Yan Liu is the one who died? This is killing people!"
Qin Shaoyou raised his brows and asked, "How does Brother Xu know that it was a murder?"
Xu Ba'an said: "We have been interrogating people in Wujiabao these days, and they have confessed to some officials who have interests, including this Yan Liu. We suspect that there are higher-level people behind Yan Liu. , I didn't rush to arrest him, just sent someone to investigate secretly."
"Have you found anything?" Qin Shaoyou asked.
Xu Baan shook his head: "No, Yan Liu's performance in the past few days is the same as in the past. It's no different. Yesterday he suddenly became very happy, but we haven't found out why he was happy, so he died."
Speaking of which, Xu Baan turned his attention to the zongzi-shaped blood ghost: "Yan Liu was killed by this ghost? Hey, this is... a blood ghost?"
He finally saw the vampire clearly.
Qin Shaoyou reported to Xu Baan what happened before and after Yan Liu's death.
After listening, Xu Baan didn't say anything else, pointed at the blood ghost and said, "So it's this blood ghost that you are trying to judge?"
Qin Shaoyou heard something wrong in his tone and asked, "Is there a problem?"
"Any of you know ghost language?" Xu Baan asked, his eyes swept over Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others~www.readwn.com~ It seemed that he was surprised that Qin Shaoyou had foreign language talents.
Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others shook their heads one after another.
"do not know."
"I can't even learn Mandarin, so how can I understand nonsense."
"I was scolded by my daughter-in-law for nonsense... Does that count?"
"Since you don't understand nonsense, what kind of blood ghost are you trying to judge?"
Xu Baan shook his head and laughed.
"This blood ghost is trained by a fetus that has not yet been born, so it doesn't understand people's language at all. You can't judge it with nonsense, doesn't it mean that you are talking about chickens and ducks!"
Only then did Qin Shaoyou and the others react.
It turns out that the blood ghosts have been ignoring them, not because of how hard their mouths are, but because the blood ghosts simply did not understand them?
In addition to being surprised, Qin Shaoyou asked, "Since the blood ghost can't understand human language, how do the people who keep it communicate with it?"
Xu Ba'an said, "Have you seen the talisman on the forehead of the vampire? The person who raised it controls it through that talisman."
Qin Shaoyou's expression changed: "Will the blood-raising ghost pass through this talisman and know that it has been captured by us?"
"That's not true." Xu Ba'an said, "But people who raise blood ghosts can summon and drive the blood ghosts through secret techniques. If the blood ghosts don't respond, the people who raise blood ghosts will definitely be suspicious."
Qin Shaoyou breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Xu Ba'an again, "Is there anyone in our Luocheng Town Demon Division who understands ghost language?"
"Of course there is..."
Before Xu Baan finished speaking, the vampire who was bound into a dumpling-like shape suddenly struggled violently after being quiet for a while.
His expression was painful and hideous.
