Celestial Immortal

Chapter 56
The Yamen of ghosts and gods.

Taoist Master Xu Ping, the deputy governor, Taoist Qingyun, Zen Master Liaokong, and Huangmei, the four senior ghosts and gods, gathered in the side hall to discuss important matters at night with candlelight.

Daoist Xu Ping looked serious: "How is the investigation of the clues found before?"

Taoist Qingyun shook his head: "Our class A is responsible for three clues. In the past two days, Pindao sent capable officers to investigate one by one, and caught five prisoners who colluded with the bone demon and one little demon. The higher-ups don't know anything, and the clues are interrupted."

Zen Master Liaokong recited the Buddha's name, and said leisurely: "The three clues that the poor monk is responsible for have also been broken, and even the little demon has not been caught."

"It's useless for you to see me. I need clues. I can sit here until now. I will yell as soon as I enter the door."

Being stared at by everyone, Huang Mei was a little dumbfounded.

Daoist Xu Ping nodded.

As expected, he was not too disappointed.

However, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became dull.

The four senior ghosts and gods were all silent, their brows were furrowed, and their hearts were under a lot of pressure.

The case of the Bone Empress has already alarmed the higher-ups.

Not only the higher-level Guangping County Ghosts and Gods Department has repeatedly questioned, but the Qingzhou Ghosts and Gods Department has also repeatedly ordered to speed up the pace of solving the case, demanding that the bone bone lady be arrested and killed as soon as possible, so as to calm the hearts of the people.

It is said that even the Lord Shepherd of Qingzhou State has intervened in this matter.

If it goes wrong, or if there is no breakthrough, Guangping County Ghosts and Gods Division will probably be criticized, not to mention the four of them, Daoist Xu Ping, who are at the center of the storm.

The governor of Guangping County often asks about the case and follows the progress of the case.

This put Daoist Xu Ping, Qingyun Daoren and others under a lot of pressure, and they had trouble sleeping and eating.

The "Bone Empress" case has become the biggest challenge since Daoist Qingyun took over as the governor of Xin'an County Ghosts and Gods Division.

If you do a good job and bring the "White Bone Empress" to justice as soon as possible, then Xu Ping's post of governor can be regarded as firmly established, and a strong stroke will be added to the resume of meritorious deeds, and there will be a strong support for future promotion and transfer .

Of course, the case is big and influential.

If he didn't do well, Daoist Xu Ping might not be able to sit firmly in his post, and resigning in despair is inevitable.

Xu Ping's leader was unlucky, and Daoist Qing Yun, Zen Master Liao Kong, and Huang Mei didn't fare much better.

Serious officials, how many people are staring at him eagerly.

Usually there is no chance, but whenever there is a reason, there will be forces secretly rushing up like a pack of wolves, kicking them away and replacing them.

Therefore, the four principals and deputy of Xin'an County Ghosts and Gods Department are in charge, all of them are prosperous and all of them are hurt, and they are all worried about the case of "Bone Empress".

"Damn it! This Bone Empress is getting more and more refined. Not only does she not show up, but her confidantes are all dormant, trying to trick some stinky fish and rotten shrimp into shit sticks, disturbing the peace of several counties around us. "

Huang Mei cursed. He is a native of Xin'an County. The Huang family is a big family in the local area. It has multiplied and thrived for many years. The clan has tens of thousands of people and spreads all over the surrounding counties.

This Bone Empress harmed the common people were all his clan members, fathers and fellow villagers, he felt the deepest and hated it the most.

Zen Master Liaokong recited the Buddha's name, while Taoist Qingyun shook his head again and again.

The former director of the Xin'an Ghost and God Department was dismissed because of the bone-bone empress stealing souls, which caused too many people to die early, and there were many wronged souls.

Right now the reason is found, but it's a pity that Empress Bone can't catch it, and the matter is equally difficult.

Daoist Xu Ping looked resolute and encouraged his morale:

"Everyone, don't be discouraged. Evil does not overwhelm righteousness. To trouble the three of you tomorrow, we will continue to send the old officials who have been handling the case for many years to investigate carefully. No matter what, we must find clues!"

"As ordered!"

The three lieutenants all took the lead in unison.

At this time, a civil official hurriedly reported outside the courtyard.

"I would like to report to all of you, Mr. Liu, deputy head of class B, please see me!"

Everyone looked at Zen Master Kong.

Zen Master Liaokong shook his head: "The poor monk doesn't know, why don't you call him here and ask him about it."

Not long after, deputy head Liu of Class B hurried in.

"What's going on? There's such a panic, what a shame!"

Taoist Huangmei was in a bad mood, and his tone was a bit harsh.

Being reprimanded in the face, if it was the past deputy squad leader Liu, he would definitely feel uneasy.

But this time, Deputy Team Leader Liu didn't care at all, instead he said excitedly:

"Everyone cares, our class B has caught a big fish!"

When they heard "Big Fish", the four of them were both surprised and happy, and immediately regained their spirits.

Daoist Xu Ping sat up straight and leaned forward slightly, and hurriedly asked:

"What big fish, tell me quickly!"

Daoist Qingyun, Zen Master Liaokong, and Huang Mei all looked at deputy squad leader Liu with anticipation.

Deputy Liu was stared at by the four members of the Department of Ghosts and Gods. He was both nervous and excited, as if his life had reached a climax.

Because of his excitement, his voice was slightly hoarse:

"Everyone cares about it. The thing is like this. Today, the inspector Chu Chen of our class B brought the concierge Ding to report to the class. He said that the house of the concierge Ding's brother-in-law was haunted. The subordinates thought it was a trivial matter. So let the inspectors of Chu go to the countryside to handle the case."

"Wait, what did you say? You let Chu Chen handle the case alone? You bastard! Do you know?"

When Huang Mei heard this, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Chu Chen has a good relationship with his nephew Huang Fugui, loves the house and Wu, and pays close attention to Chu Chen's affairs, knowing the inside story.

But halfway through his speech, he stopped talking, sat back in his seat, and stopped talking.

The atmosphere was a little weird for a while.

Deputy Liu was stunned, his smile was restrained, and he was sweating profusely. He didn't know what he had done wrong, and he was stunned, at a loss.

Zen Master Liaokong and Taoist Qingyun vaguely guessed something, and frowned slightly.

Instead, Daoist Xu Ping waved his hand and ordered:
"Deputy Liu, continue talking."

Vice squad leader Liu touched the cold sweat on his forehead, stuttered a little: "Just now, the inspector of Chu came back, and his soldiers and horses escorted a bone goblin, a little female ghost."

Zen Master Liaokong hurriedly asked, "How is Chu Chen? Didn't he get hurt?"

Deputy Team Leader Liu finally understood why he was scolded by Huang Duguan, and hurriedly replied: "No, the inspector Chu was not injured, not at all, very good."

Hearing this, Xu Ping and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"Go, go and see!"

As soon as they heard that Chu Chen was fine, the four of them stopped entangled too much, but focused on the Bone Demon, each showing surprise.

Most of the Bone Demons in the surrounding areas of Xin'an County are under the command of the Bone Empress, and they are likely to be her confidants.

The "big fish" mentioned by Deputy Team Leader Liu is not an exaggeration.

Needless to say, this was a surprise.

A moment ago, they were still troubled by not being able to find clues about the "Bone Empress Case", but in the blink of an eye such a big surprise fell from the sky.

I really complied with that sentence, and came to give me a pillow when I was sleepy.

The four guards seemed quite excited, and each of them went straight to the prison of the Ghost and God Si Yamen.
