A blue-black handprint, obviously the shape of a woman's small hand, appeared on the arm of the county magistrate Tian Wenliang.
This is no longer a nightmare, it cannot be explained by thinking about it every day and dreaming about it every night.
This is obviously what they call strange power and chaos.
In other words, the left deputy Dutou they fired may have really done something wrong.
But the most important thing now is not the matter about the left deputy chief, but the fact that the name of the county magistrate Tian Wenliang actually appears in the bright red ghost wedding letter with the dragon and phoenix pattern appearing, next to the groom's name.
This is the reason why Tian Wenliang and Master's expressions changed drastically, because during the day, they heard Li Captou and Luo Dutou saying that once their names appear in the marriage book, all grooms will have only one result, and that is to disappear. without a trace.
And when he had the nightmare, the wedding team and the ghost of the wedding lady who got off the sedan tried to drag him away. If it weren't for the mirror at the yamen door, Tian Wenliang might have been taken away.
As for whether the grooms in the past really married the female ghost after they were captured, it has been impossible to verify, but the outcome will not be good after all.
So he felt that he should be lucky that he was a county magistrate and that his position was the county government office.
"Master, what should I do about this matter? Give me an idea!"
The county magistrate Tian Wenliang is not a quick-witted person. In essence, he is just a playboy who squanders his family fortune.
If the staff master who inherited the kindness from his ancestors had not told him that he could buy an official position and work abroad, he would have squandered all his family property in the capital and become one of the struggling people at the bottom of the capital.
Therefore, his first reaction when encountering something is to let his career give him good advice. This is already instinctive.
The staff master knew that this matter was troublesome, but now was not the time to panic. Instead, he calmed down and asked Tian Wenliang to recount the two nightmares he had in detail.
Not to mention, most people have a vague memory of their dreams after waking up from them, but Tian Wenliang remembered the two dreams he just had very clearly.
Because it wasn't a dream at all, but something he actually experienced.
So he recounted his two nightmares in detail.
The master took the pen and ink and wrote down all the dreams mentioned by the county magistrate. Then he thought about it for a while and then sighed.
“First, you cannot leave the county government office until the matter is resolved.
According to what you said, you were almost pulled away by the female ghost in your dream, but the mirror at the door of the county government office emitted a beam of light and froze you, and you escaped after the cockcrow.
This can prove that if the situation last night was the same, it was the mirror at the county government office that saved you.
The wedding team, including the ghost in wedding clothes, all stopped at the gate of the county government office, so they probably couldn't get in.
Therefore, until the matter is resolved, you cannot leave the county office. No matter who the local squire is to invite you, you cannot go. It is important to save your life!
Second, early tomorrow morning, I will personally prepare a generous gift and go to Zuofu to ask Zuo Deputy Chief of Staff to resume his duties!
I have seen through the so-called specialization in the arts. In the face of these strange things, people with such special abilities are really needed to calm the situation.
Dong Weng, what do you think? "
Upon hearing this, Tian Wenliang stood up without even thinking and said to the guard on the side: "Why wait for tomorrow? Go now, the sooner the better!
Liu Erhu, go and prepare a generous gift. You must be considerate!
Now go and ask the left deputy chief! "
The staff master stopped Liu Erhu dumbfounded, turned around and said to Tian Wenliang: "Dong Weng, the county magistrate, what are you thinking about!
When asking for help, you must act like you are asking for help!
What time is it now? It’s night now and it’s not yet dawn!
The left deputy is not your subordinate now, and he does not work under you. Besides, we have offended him before.
And now he is the only one we can rely on. At this time, all we can do is wait for dawn.
After daybreak, I would prepare generous gifts and I, a confidant, would personally go to the door and invite the person back with all the courtesy and courtesy.
We are begging for help now!
Don't mess around! "
But Tian Wenliang looked out the window at the night sky, which was still a long time before dawn, and said to the master with a little trembling: "If I don't call him right away, I'm worried that I won't be able to wait until dawn!"
correct……"
Pointing to the marriage document on the desk, he said to Liu Erhu: "Go get a brazier and burn the marriage document. Hurry up..."
Liu Erhu heard this and quickly went to find the brazier. The staff master wanted to say something, but didn't.
Just waiting with Tian Wenliang, the brazier was soon moved in. The marriage letter that several people present saw with their own eyes was burned to ashes by the flames, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
But unexpectedly, when they just breathed a sigh of relief, they thought they had destroyed the marriage document. However, they did not expect that the marriage document was intact and suddenly appeared in front of Tian Wenliang.
Tian Wenliang looked at the sudden appearance of the marriage certificate, his face turned blue with shock, his hands were shaking, and his teeth were chattering.
If it was just a guess before, even if there is a purple female handprint on his arm, it is just a guess and suspicion, and there is no concrete evidence yet.
But when the marriage letter was burned by him and suddenly appeared in front of him, all the speculations became true.
Not many people can stay calm about this kind of thing, ghost!
When the fire does not burn you, you can still stand calmly and watch from a distance, and even feel a little pity for others.
But once the burn hits you, you won't be able to remain calm, and you will only focus on fear!
Tian Wenliang grabbed his master and said tremblingly: "There's no need to wait until dawn!
Go and invite him now. You must invite him. Without him, I’m afraid I won’t be able to wait until tomorrow!
It will kill people!
I will die! "
The master shook his head. Even though Tian Wenliang was his boss and the county magistrate, he did not agree to this idea.
"Dong Weng, there is not much time before dawn, and the students have also analyzed that this female ghost's method requires you to fall asleep before she takes action.
As long as you don't fall asleep in the next time and we are here to guard you, the most important thing is that you are in the county office.
Don't mess up your position!
You must know that during the day, we offended Zuo Fudutou, and not everyone's heart can be broad-minded and tolerant.
Even the sages said, repay evil with kindness, how to repay kindness, repay hatred with straightness, repay kindness with kindness!
Therefore, if we go to harass Deputy Zuo in the middle of the night, and we offended him so arrogantly during the day yesterday.
I'm afraid the left deputy wouldn't even come here, and he would even be happy to see you suffer!
Now, we are here to protect you, and we are still in the county government office. This important official position should be able to protect you for a while.
You must not be rash, you must wait until dawn, invite him politely and with enough respect, otherwise the students will not be sure that they can invite him!
This is our only life-saving straw, we can’t afford to lose it! "
This sentence was very reasonable, and the county magistrate Tian Wenliang who said it had no room for refutation.
Because, Deputy Zuo Dutou was indeed their last life-saving straw, because except for Deputy Zuo Dutou, no one around here was heard to be able to deal with this ghost.
Among the temples in Guobei County, I used to hear that there was Lanruo Temple, but it fell into decline for some unknown reason. Now there is really only Zuo Fudutou.
And they just had a grudge with the left deputy yesterday. If they come to the door in the middle of the night at this time, they will disturb people's dreams.
If you really end up resenting him again because of your lack of etiquette, I'm afraid there will only be a dead end.
Fortunately, both the shivering county magistrate Tian Wenliang and the master and several guards who stayed with him all night survived safely until dawn.
The sky was slightly bright, Tian Wenliang immediately sent his bodyguard to call Li Captou and Luo Dutou. The master hurriedly went to the market to buy gifts. The etiquette must be enough!
"What!"
Li Captou couldn't believe his eyes. The name of the county magistrate Tian Wenliang was actually on the marriage certificate.
"That shouldn't be the case! The county magistrate has the aura of a royal official, so he should not be afraid of the marriage certificate. How come your name appears on the marriage certificate?
In this county government, the royal official spirit can suppress ghosts and ghosts, otherwise we, mortal eyes, would not be able to see such things.
Now we can see that the royal official spirit can still be suppressed, but why does the name of the county official appear? "
Li Captou was puzzled.
Luo Dutou sighed: "If your name appears on the marriage certificate, it is basically difficult to avoid it.
But there is no need to be afraid. The royal aura of the officials in the county government office can suppress ghosts. Even if the ghost dares to cause trouble, it will not dare to come to the county government office to cause trouble.
If you don't worry about your life, just try your best not to appear outside the county government office after dark. "
Tian Wenliang was about to burst into tears: "You two, I am in the county government office, and this ghost mist can still harm me!"
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and let the two of them see the blue-black woman's handprint on his arm.
"This was last night..."
He recounted what happened to him last night, and specifically said that even if he slept in the county government office, the other party could still pull him into that weird dream.
Once you really leave with the other person in the dream, you still don't know whether you can wake up or whether you still exist.
So he is afraid!
"Master has gone to the market to buy gifts, and plans to invite Deputy Zuo Dutou back again. The two of you have a deep friendship with Deputy Zuo, and we hope to go with Master to help you.
After all, when it comes to dealing with these weird things, Zuo Dutou is more convincing. "
Li Captou and Luo Dutou looked at each other. If they had known about this, why did they do it in the first place?
However, after knowing such a thing, even if he didn't say anything, they still had to go together to persuade the left deputy to come back.
I don't know what's going on. In the past few years or even more than ten years, there was no mysterious case. Now, there are more and more cases of these strange ghosts and monsters.
How long has it been?
In just a few months, so many evil things happened, which made them feel a little anxious.
They are worried that this kind of thing will happen more and more in the future, and if there is no capable person in charge of their own county, it will be very dangerous!
So after the staff master came back from buying a bunch of gifts, they followed him to the door of Chen Yun's house.
The master knocked on the door himself. Since you want to invite someone, you must be polite.
Therefore, the master stepped forward to knock on the door very carefully, and put on a sincere smile the moment the door opened.
"Hello, madam, I am the master of the staff of the Yamen County Grand Master, and I have come here to see the Vice-President Zuo."
It was Miss Jiu who opened the door.
At dawn, the whole family was practicing swordsmanship, and Miss Ninth's face was dripping with sweat.
After a few months of raising the general with no worries about food and clothing, and the sword skills taught by Chen Yun were good at improving the body, Ninth Girl became more slender, slender, fair and toned.
The master was stunned for a moment when he saw it, but he quickly realized it. Knowing that no evil should be tolerated, he clasped his hands in a bow, bowed, and sang a fat promise.
"I wonder if the left deputy has already gotten up?"
At this time, Li Captou and Luo Dutou naturally wanted to help, and they quickly took two steps forward: "Brother and sister, is Brother Zuo up?"
Miss Jiu originally didn't want to pay attention to this master, but since Li Captou and Luo Dutou were there, she had no choice but to say: "I'm practicing my sword in the courtyard!"
Then he walked inside, without saying please come in or not letting in. It was quite rude, but no one cared about it.
Chen Yun's sword skills are versatile and sharp, while Old Man Zuo's sword skills are fierce and full of evil spirit. Even Dunzi, who is hiding in the corner and practicing his wooden sword, is very methodical in every move.
When he saw someone coming, if it was just the Yamen's staff, Chen Yun had no need to stop his sword.
But among the people who came were Li Captou and Luo Dutou, he could only stop his sword, lean the long knife in his hand against the wall, and walk over.
"Master's arrival this morning is a bit unexpected!
Any advice? "
The master hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Deputy Zuo, I offended you yesterday, so I came here to apologize today!
A few small gifts are not respectful, but I hope you will accept them! "
Miss Ninth handed over the sweat towel. Chen Yun took it and wiped the sweat from his head, face and body, and twisted it. The sweat towel seemed to be washed with water.
While wiping his sweat, he asked Capt. Li and Luo Dutou to sit down and poured a bowl of water for each of them.
"There's no tea this morning, just warm water!"
After saying that, he poured a bowl of water before saying to the master: "So, what is the purpose of the master coming here today?
Master also knows that we are rough people, good at dancing with guns and sticks, so I can’t figure out what I mean by talking in such a roundabout way.
Why don't you just say it! "
The so-called showing courtesy for nothing is either a traitor or a thief. He just drove me away yesterday, and today he came to the door with gifts in person, and it seemed that these gifts were not cheap.
What else can I say? I must be asking for something.
Otherwise, how could they bring together Capt. Li and Luo Dutou?
Didn't he just want to use the friendship between Li Captou and Luo Dutou to him?
Seeing how direct Chen Yun was, the master didn't waste any words: "The county magistrate wants Deputy Chief Zuo to be reinstated and take charge of prison affairs and supernatural matters again!
I wonder what Deputy Zuo Dutou thinks? "
As he spoke, he winked at Li Captou and Luo Dutou, but he didn't expect that these two people seemed to be blind.
Chen Yun looked at the master seriously and asked, "Tell me! I want to hear the truth!"
The master had no choice but to tell the truth: "The county minister is getting married, and the bride is a female ghost..."
