I’m Being Held Captive by Demons Chapter 71: It’s weird

"Although the gate of **** is closed, the ghosts can't get in."

Wan'er explained: "I have to correct Ning Zhaotou on this point."

"Although the gate of ghosts is closed, all the yin and spirits in the yin division have died out. But that is only the lack of black and white impermanence, bull-headed horse-faced and other ghosts to guide the soul."

"Without the guidance of the ghost messenger, seven days after a person's death, the remnant souls will gradually condense and become wandering spirits wandering in the world."

"And they are not in the world, and the longer they stay in the world, the more difficult it will be."

"Whether the sun is blowing or the rain is blowing, it is a torment for them."

"These wandering ghosts will eventually wander towards the gate of **** unconsciously, and eventually hide in the underworld."

"It is indeed difficult for us living people to enter the closed gate of hell."

"But these dead lonely ghosts are already spirit bodies, but they can easily enter the underworld."

"You can't get out if you go in."

Wan'er said, "I've seen it before, the ghost guards who closed the gate of **** only blocked the way out from the inside, but specially left a path for the wandering ghosts outside to enter."

Speaking of this, Wan'er couldn't help sighing.

"Unfortunately, this kind of move was originally a good intention, but in the end it fueled the arrogance of the ghost of the city **** in the Yin Division."

"In the past 20 years, He has continuously enslaved the ghosts of the Yin Division, absorbed the yang energy of the world, and greatly strengthened the ghosts."

"That's why the ghost of the city **** is so huge."

"At least half of the ghosts of the people who have died in Shanlan County over the past ten years have been swallowed up by it. The rest have also been locked in the ghost market by Him and have lost their ego."

Wan'er said: "Miss Xu San's ghost, according to common sense, there is no ghost to pick up the ghost, and it will take seven days to condense and manifest."

"And there is no Yin Shi to guide, this kind of self-condensed ghosts, all have no intelligence, no confusion, only the most basic instincts, no different from dementia."

"So even if Miss Xu San's ghost is condensed, she will definitely not remember the past, love and hatred, and she will not come here to touch Caiwei's head."

Wan'er looked at Kong Ning and said helplessly, "It's very likely that Ning Caotou has caught your eye."

Kong Ning frowned, constantly recalling the startling glance when he turned around.

Although it was only for a moment, the picture was very real.

Unlikely dazzling.

Kong Ning frowned and said, "Then there is no other possibility besides this? For example, Miss Xu San is so talented that she can condense her soul just after death?"

Wan'er smiled helplessly, and said, "This possibility is not without... If Miss Xu San is resentful and has a strong character. Then after a tragic death, she will directly transform into an evil ghost and linger in the world."

"But the yard is empty, there is no yin, and no evil spirit dares to show up in the daylight."

"As for resentment... When Miss Xu San died, her obsession was gone, and Ning Catou promised to help her take care of her children and avenge her deep revenge. It can be said that she walked very peacefully, and it was impossible to turn into evil. Damn."

Wan'er said: "Take ten thousand steps back, even if Miss Xu San is really resentful and turned into an evil spirit. But a evil spirit can haunt both of us... Ning Caotou, Do you think this is possible?"

Kong Ning thought for a while, then nodded helplessly: "It's really unlikely, I'm probably dazzled."

Although I don't think it's possible for me to see dazzling eyes, compared with Wan'er's meticulous reasoning, my own dazzling eyes seems more logical.

After leaving Tian's abandoned house, Kong Ning rode a jujube yellow horse back to the county office.

Along the way, he carefully observed the situation around him.

However, the figure of the woman in red never appeared again.

Seeing Xu Miaoyi's ghost in Tian's abandoned house seems to be his illusion.

When I returned to the yamen, it was time for dinner.

Today, the crowd did not go out to eat, but sat in the courtyard of the yamen and set up a banquet.

When Kong Ning arrived, everyone greeted him and took his seat.

Kong Ning was a little confused: "What happened today? Why did you suddenly set up a table in the yard?"

Ma Liudao on the side: "Today, the adults have a treat, so you must have a good meal."

Kong Ning's expression was astonished and unbelievable: "My lord?"

That stingy county magistrate?

Also asked the county government to arrest more than 300 people?

Kong Ning immediately asked in a low voice, "What happened?"

They are county magistrates, but they are notoriously stingy. To eat him a meal, I am afraid that the labor of ten meals will have to be vomited out.

Sure enough, Ma Liu whispered: "Sir, let us eat and drink enough, and go to the mountains in the afternoon to chop down trees."

"The batch of sycamore wood he bought from Hejian Mansion doesn't seem to be enough."

Before the county magistrate asked Zhang Rong and the other ten arresters to **** the body of the monster to Hejian Mansion, when they came back, those arresters did buy a batch of sycamore trees for the county magistrate and brought them all into the county magistrate's The yard of the carpenter's brother-in-law's house.

Because of the reason for the head arrest, Kong Ning didn't need to work hard, so he didn't move it in person, but he also heard other people in the yamen talking about it.

Is there not enough locust wood now? The county magistrate wants to call everyone to go to the mountains to cut?

There are indeed quite a lot of yin locust trees in the mountains~IndoMTL.com~ But if Kong Ning remembers correctly, there were several cars of yin locust trees towed back from Hejianfu last time, right? Still not enough?

The county magistrate, the brother-in-law, why do you want so much ash tree?

Kong Ning was very puzzled.

After asking around, I roughly understood the cause and effect.

The county magistrate's brother-in-law used this batch of yin locust wood to make masks for Nuo opera.

And since the locust tree arrived last month, that guy's workshop has been working day and night without stopping, working overtime to make Nuo opera masks.

The head of the soap room told Kong Ning in a low voice that the county magistrate planned to restart the Nuo opera sacrifice on the Mid-Autumn Festival, and invited people to perform Nuo opera and sacrifice to heaven and earth to pray for a good harvest.

Tomorrow, the yamen will be going to put up a notice to let the people in the city know about this and cooperate.

The county magistrate's brother-in-law worked overtime to make these Nuo opera masks, obviously intending to make a lot of money on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

After all, the Nuo opera sacrifice is so important that the villagers in this world must participate, and no one dares to be absent.

At that time, the people of the whole city can only buy the Nuo opera masks of the county magistrate and brother-in-law...

This is really...

Kong Ning shook his head wordlessly, finally clarifying the cause and effect.

And if he guessed right, the magistrate himself also took a stake in this business.

So many shade trees are not a small sum of money.

But Nuo opera... Shanlan County has not held such large-scale Nuo opera sacrifices for several years.

The county magistrate was suddenly so winded that he wanted to hold a Nuo opera sacrifice?

Could it be that he's been on a tight leash lately?

But I haven't heard that the county magistrate is short of money recently... It's really strange.
