Qiantang County Government Office, the Qiantang County Magistrate looked at Li Gongfu and others standing under the desk, his eyes full of disbelief: "Captain Li, you said that there was an evil spirit that killed people in Shuntian Escort Bureau, and the world is bright, you can't say such nonsense. ."

In any dynasty, spreading rumors about evildoers being rampant is a serious crime. No wonder the Qiantang County magistrate was a little angry.

Li Gongfu also knew the key, but he didn't care much at the moment. They escaped from the Shuntian Escort Bureau. Li Gongfu just hurriedly bandaged the wound on his chest and immediately brought Wang Jiucheng, the victim, to the county government to report the matter.

Although it sounds unbelievable, the evil spirit of Shuntian Escort Bureau has appeared in the world. Many people in Shuntian Escort Bureau and the Yamen have witnessed it with their own eyes. Even if Li Gongfu wanted to hide it, he could not hide it.

When the county magistrate heard that many witnesses in the hall were talking about evil spirits in the Shuntian Escort Agency, even though he was a scholar and never believed in ghosts and gods, he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.

Hundreds of people saw it with their own eyes. Could it be that something evil really happened in Qiantang County?

Thinking of the big and bizarre bat in Xuanwu Temple a few days ago, the county magistrate began to feel shaken.

At this time, Li Gongfu stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, when we left the Shuntian Escort Bureau, the evil spirit was still entrenched in the Shuntian Escort Agency. I am worried that if time goes by, the evil spirit leaves the Escort Agency and enters the county."

The county magistrate's eyes suddenly changed. If what Li Gongfu and others said was true, the evil spirit was going on a killing spree in Qiantang County. Regardless of whether he was finally surrendered, he, the county magistrate, would be held accountable by his superiors.

But now his most capable subordinate Li Gongfu has been seriously injured. Wang Jiucheng, the former chief bodyguard, is like a lost dog. How can Qiantang County still have the power to subdue the evil spirits?

Thinking of this, he focused his eyes on Wang Jiucheng, who was in despair, and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Wang, the evil head of the escort agency, is here in Shuntian Escort Bureau. What do you have to say?"

Wang Jiucheng's body trembled. He raised his head and glanced at the county magistrate. He quickly lowered his head again with an ugly smile on his face: "Back to the county magistrate, I really don't know this. I have always been a human being, so I really don't know." How can I provoke evil spirits? I have pity on my wife, who has been a vegetarian all year round and has been doing good deeds, but she was harmed by evil spirits. The villain is really confused at the moment."

Li Gongfu's heart was moved and he looked at him and asked: "Mr. Wang, head escort, did you just come back from escorting the escort a few days ago? Did you attract evil spirits while escorting the escort?"

As soon as Li Gongfu said this, everyone in the hall nodded.

Qiantang County has the protection of the city god, and the weather has been good these years, and there has never been any abnormality. The Shuntian Escort Bureau has been escorting escorts out all the year round, and maybe they have provoked something while escorting outside.

Wang Jiucheng frowned when he heard this. He recalled it carefully, and his body was shaken after a long time.

"Maybe it was that night."

Then he raised his head and said to the county magistrate and Li Gongfu: "I dare not deceive the magistrate and Mr. Li. We have always taken the high road when traveling as escorts, but when we returned to Qiantang this time, because we were eager to return home, we took a road that we had never walked before. The mountain road we took was one night five days ago. When we were walking in the mountains that night, it suddenly rained, so we had to rest in a mountain temple. Could it be that we collided with something at that time? "

Hearing this, Li Gongfu also frowned, "As far as I know, in the entire Qiantang County, there are no mountain temples except the Chenghuang Temple."

Wang Jiucheng smiled bitterly and said: "We also reacted afterwards, but we all thought it was a mountain temple built privately by the villagers, so we didn't take it seriously."

At this time, the master beside the county magistrate thought for a moment and said: "If what Li Captou and others said is true, sir, I'm afraid ordinary warriors won't be able to do much to deal with this evil spirit."

The county magistrate stroked his beard and asked, "Do you mean to invite some Buddhist and Taoist masters to come?"

The master nodded and said: "As far as I know, Master Fahai, the host of Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang, is a truly accomplished monk. If you can invite him here, you can subdue evil spirits with just a raise of your hands."

The county magistrate nodded and said: "I have also heard the name of Jinshan Temple. It's just that Jinshan Temple is five hundred miles away from Qiantang. Even if we work hard, it will take several days to go back and forth. Isn't it too late?" The master said: "The current plan is, We can only send people to keep an eye on the Shuntian Escort Bureau and hope that the evil spirit will not harm anyone for the time being."

The county magistrate sighed: "Are there no monks or Taoists near our Qiantang County?"

At this time, Li Gongfu thought for a while and bravely said: "My lord, if you want to subdue evil spirits, I would like to recommend someone to you."

The county magistrate suddenly became energetic and said, "Oh, Capt. Li also knows the master, let's talk about it."

To be fair, Li Gongfu is not willing to expose Song Xing's existence easily, because he still can't figure out Song Xing's character until now. If Song Xing is bent on Qingxiu, and he rashly reveals that he knows Taoism, he may anger Song Xing. OK.

But after seeing the terrifying and evil power of Mrs. Wang Jiucheng, he was afraid that the evil spirits would break out of the Shuntian Escort Bureau and cause greater harm to Qiantang County.

Comparing the two, Li Gongfu finally gritted his teeth and revealed Song Xing's existence.

"The expert recommended by the villain is a Taoist priest who once practiced in Zhong Nanshan. I met him by chance. I was able to escape safely from the Shuntian Escort Bureau this time, thanks to the gift given by the Taoist priest before. A talisman."

He was careful and hid the existence of the copper coin, only saying that it was a talisman awarded by Song Xing.

After listening to Li Gongfu's words, the county magistrate showed an expression of joy on his face: "It turns out that it is Zhong Nanshan who is practicing Quanzhen. No wonder it can make Capt. Li bow down. In this case, I need you, Capt. Li, to come forward and explain the situation to that person." A Taoist priest came forward to subdue the evil spirit."

Although the county magistrate has not seen with his own eyes the power of the legendary Taoist master, he has heard about Zhong Nanshan.

It is said that Zhongnan Mountain is the dojo where Lu Zu's lineage practiced. It is popular with pilgrims and even the local county guard has come to seek enlightenment and elixirs.

Since Li Gongfu swore that Taoist Zhong Nanshan had the true way of practice, it would be good for the county magistrate to have one more helper.

"As for Jinshan Temple, Master, you still send people there. I have admired the name of Master Fahai of Jinshan Temple for a long time, and it is my wish to have a glimpse of his grace."

Although the county magistrate believed Li Gongfu's words, he still made preparations and asked people to go to Jinshan Temple to invite Fahai and his party.

In this way, even if the Taoist recommended by Li Gongfu fails, Fa Hai will still be there as a backup.

After giving the instructions, the county magistrate saw that Mr. Li Gongfu looked troubled and asked, "Captain Li, do you have anything else to say?"

Li Gongfu pondered for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, this Taoist priest is different from ordinary people after all. I'm afraid that if I go to invite someone, he may not be willing to take action."

The county magistrate immediately understood what Li Gongfu meant. Buddhism and Taoism are respected in today's world, so the status of Buddhism and Taoism is high.

With his status as a county magistrate, an ordinary monk would naturally not be worthy of his courtesy, but if he were an eminent monk like Fahai of Jinshan Temple, he would be worthy of his personal greeting.

If the Taoist priest Li Gongfu mentioned is also a Taoist Quanzhen, then going there in person can not only show respect, but also take the opportunity to make good friends with him.

Thinking of this, the county magistrate nodded: "In that case, Mr. Li, please arrange for me to meet this Taoist priest in person."
