Chapter 34 Protection of Pinghu Division
"Hmph, of course I'm a ghost."

Hearing Zitong's question, Lu Niang said softly.

Zitong opened his mouth wide, and immediately showed a bitter smile, and said to himself:
"It really is a ghost... Then I am a ghost too... I am dead as expected."

"Pfft, idiot."

Zi Tong muttered to herself, making Lu Niang couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The laughter made Zi Tong frown, she looked at Lu Niang again, and asked:
"What are you laughing at? You are a ghost, and I am also a ghost. If you have become a ghost, then what is it if you are dead?"

"Really? Have you ever heard that 'ghosts' can bleed, have a heartbeat, and breathe?"

"what?"

Zi Tong was stunned, and hurriedly touched her heart, and she really felt an extremely strong heartbeat.

Not only that, Zitong realized after being reminded that he was still breathing, and the breath exhaled between his nose was so obvious at this moment.

"Then... I'm not dead...?"

"not dead."

"But you said I became a ghost..."

"It turned into a ghost, but this ghost is not that ghost. Forget it, my son asked me to explain it after you wake up, and I will explain it to you reluctantly."

Lu Niang said with a look of disgust, then walked up to Zitong, grabbed her arm and dragged her off the bed.

"But before that, get the hell out of here, and you've said that this bed is for the young master!"

"..."

Can't you just finish talking before doing anything...

Zi Tong, who was dragged off the bed without any resistance, was so slandering in her heart.

……

"Young Master Gu, if you take the liberty to come to visit, I hope you don't mind."

In Gu Chen's courtyard, Zheng Hong, who was accompanied by Liu Yuan and Wu Chai, smiled lightly and apologized to Gu Chen.

Counting this time, plus the time at the hospital, Zheng Hong has come to visit Gu Chen three times. The first two times were to ask about Gu Chen's situation because of the destruction of the Gu family. robe people's affairs.

Gu Chen poured a cup of hot tea for Zheng Hong and the others, and also responded with a smile:
"It's okay, I don't have many friends, and I usually stay in my room and don't communicate with others. Mr. Zheng's presence here, on the contrary, has made my courtyard a little more popular."

"Hahaha, Mr. Gu doesn't think it's better if I wait to make trouble."

Zheng Hong responded with a smile, and Gu Chen also smiled back. Both the host and the guest were happy for a while.

But it was only for a while to be polite, Zheng Hong restrained his smile and said:
"Young Master Gu should know the purpose of my coming here today."

"Well, about the thief who kidnapped me yesterday, right? Before I talk about it, I have to thank Mr. Zheng for not making it public, otherwise I will definitely be lectured by my brother-in-law."

Gu Chen expressed his thanks appropriately.

Zheng Hong waved his hand and said:

"Mr. Gu, you don't have to thank me. To be honest, the mysterious person who kidnapped Mr. Gu yesterday may be related to the case of the Gu family extermination and the Jinlong Temple extermination case. For such a major case, if the incident is not found out, I will wait for it." I don’t speak up easily, so that’s where my job is.”

Gu Chen nodded, and asked in a little silence:

"So yesterday's man in black is indeed related to the two murder cases?"

"I can't be sure yet, that's why I came to find Mr. Gu today. After the mysterious man took you away yesterday, did he say anything to you? What did he do?"

"... She didn't do anything to me, she just asked me one thing."

Gu Chen said hesitantly.

Zheng Hong's expression changed, and he asked, "What's the matter?"

"The evening before yesterday, Sister Qianqian...that is, the young lady of the Tao family, went to the temple to ask for a piece of Jade Guanyin for me. She said that it has the effect of eliminating diseases and disasters, and asked me to wear it on my body at any time.

"Then that night, before falling asleep, I put Jade Guanyin on the table in the room, and when I woke up the next morning, I found that Jade Guanyin was no longer there..."

Gu Chen didn't talk about the man in black right away, but said another thing first, telling the story of Yu Guanyin.

Zheng Hong didn't urge him, he was drinking tea while listening to Gu Chen's narration, without any sign of impatience, then Gu Chen paused and continued:

"Because the Jade Avalokitesvara was given to me by Ms. Tao, it was lost in just one day. I am too embarrassed to disclose this matter. I just want to go outside and buy a similar jade pendant after the review from the medical clinic. Afterwards, I will slowly look for the lost Jade Guanyin, but..."

"But I didn't expect to be kidnapped halfway."

"Yes, and to my surprise, the mysterious woman who kidnapped me... came for the lost piece of Jade Guanyin..."

Only then did Gu Chen say that the purpose of the mysterious woman was for the piece of Jade Guanyin who didn't know what it was used for.

Zheng Hong thought for a while after listening, and then asked:
"Didn't she say anything else besides asking about Yuguanyin?"

"It's gone. After she found out that Jade Guanyin was lost, she seemed shocked and said something... Oh, yes, something like 'Gods have spirits'..."

Gu Chen didn't finish his sentence, but he knew that Zheng Hong must have guessed something, which can be seen from Zheng Hong's current expression.

Gu Chen deliberately waited for a while, and after there was no sound for a long time, he asked Zheng Hong:

"Master Zheng...But what did you think of?"

"I have some clues, but I'm sorry I can't tell Mr. Gu."

When he came back to his senses, Zheng Hong said to Gu Chen slightly apologetically.

Gu Chen shook his head and said:
"The case that Division Pinghu is in charge of shouldn't have been explained to ordinary people, so why should Master Zheng apologize?"

"Young Master Gu can understand, that's why it couldn't be better." Zheng Hong nodded with a smile, and then said seriously:

"In addition, there is one thing that I need to ask Mr. Gu for permission."

"please say."

"The lost piece of Jade Guanyin, if I'm right, should be an extremely important item. If the man in black really came here for this Jade Guanyin, he probably won't give up easily, and she will probably make a comeback. Come to trouble Mr. Gu again.

"So in order to prevent this from happening, I hope Mr. Gu can accept our protection."

"This..." Gu Chen hesitated, after a while, Gu Chen said: "I am also living in Tao's house, if I accept the protection of the yamen..."

"Please rest assured, Mr. Gu, I will not enter the Tao's house, but when Mr. Gu leaves the Tao's house for a trip, there will be arresters from the yamen to follow."

Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words: "Okay, since that's the case... then I'll be in a position to trouble everyone."

After seeing off Zheng Hong and his party, Gu Chen, who was sitting in the courtyard drinking tea, was slightly dazed looking at where Zheng Hong was just now.

Zheng Hong's proposal to protect Gu Chen is not necessarily for Gu Chen's safety. He probably knows what Jade Guanyin is, and he also doubts whether Gu Chen's claim that Jade Guanyin is lost is true or false.

To be more precise, it was Zheng Hong's keen sense of smell that sensed that there might be something wrong with Gu Chen, but without knowing the existence of ghosts or the existence of Hei Si Mou, Zheng Hong couldn't connect all the clues to Gu Chen.

"What a keen guy, are all the people in Pinghu Division like this?"

Gu Chen, who was slightly annoyed by Zheng Hong's keen intuition, couldn't help but raised his hands and kneaded his temples.

Last night, using the Brilliant Eyes of the Other Shore caused a great burden on Gu Chen's eyes. Although he was not blind, he also suffered a certain degree of vision loss, probably due to myopia, and he didn't know if he would recover.

Coupled with the increase in eye pressure, Gu Chen sometimes feels a headache, and Hei Si Mou said that this state may last for a few days.

This is just a side effect after opening the Bian Zhuyan for a moment. If it is used like Kanao in the original book, blindness will probably be unavoidable.

Rubbing his forehead to relieve the pain in his head, Gu Chen got up and went back to the room.

Even if Zheng Hong's intuition is sensitive, he can't check everything clearly, so there is no need to worry about his problems for the time being.

In contrast, Gu Chen was more interested in the monster-like purple pupil with animal ears.

He really didn't expect that such a species existed in this world.

This world, which seems to be just an ordinary ancient world, is really getting more and more interesting.
