I become a god in another world

Chapter 13
Chapter 13
"I...forget it, I don't want it anymore..."

Lao Zhang hesitated for a while and then shook his head.

He already understood that he was too impatient and had fallen into Zhao Fusheng's trick, and she had tricked her into leaking the information. At this time, he felt regretful and backed away:

"Forget it, I won't collect the bill for the time being——"

"That won't work."

At this time, he wanted to leave, but Zhao Fusheng did not allow him:

"It's only right and proper to pay off debts."

She pretended to be kind:
"Well, I control ghosts. As a neighbor, you must know that."

When Lao Zhang heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

A bad premonition arose in his heart, his right eye twitched rapidly, and just as he was about to speak, Zhao Fusheng said again:
"After all, you have been neighbors for many years. You should know the ghost I control best. Give first and take later, right?"

She smiled and said:
"In my opinion, what kind of ghost is this? He is simply the reincarnation of the God of Wealth! A good ghost who provides carbon in the snow!"

"..."

Brothers Fan Bishi and Fan Wujiu had expressions of bewilderment on their faces, and looked at her with expressions that were hard to describe.

"I have tried this ghost's 'power', including sending money and rice."

The sweat on Lao Zhang's forehead became even thicker. Zhao Fusheng took a step forward, but he backed away desperately, shaking:

"No no no..."

"Why don't I ask the ghost for 102 taels of silver for you..." Before Zhao Fusheng could finish his words, Lao Zhang screamed loudly: "Isn't that okay?"

"What's wrong?" Zhao Fusheng smiled and said:

"Isn't it just money? If it's not enough, I can ask for more."

"No." Lao Zhang shook his head.

Zhao Fusheng suddenly stretched out his hand to grab his clothes. He was caught unawares by her. The girl's hands were cold and slender. When he thought about her being surrounded by a ghost, he was so frightened that the old man kept screaming:

"Ah! Help, help—"

"Don't kill me, I don't want the money anymore..."

"How can we not need money? We must."

Zhao Fusheng sneered:
"Not only can I want it, but I want it all."

"No, no, no, I made a mistake in my calculation. It's not so much money. I have to calculate it again -" Lao Zhang said loudly, while calling the Fan brothers for help:
"Fan, Fan Lingshi..."

"Fusheng." The development of the matter was beyond the Fan brothers' expectations. Zhao Fusheng swept away his past cowardice and became shrewd and strong.

Fan Bisheng's heart skipped a beat and he quickly said:

"Don't kill him, he, he and Paper Man Zhang are from the same clan..."

"Yes, yes, yes, the paper man Zhang is my distant nephew." Lao Zhang suddenly regained his vitality and said loudly:
"Do not kill me."

"He's just a distant nephew, not a real nephew." Zhao Fusheng sneered, refusing to accept this trick:
"What's more, this so-called paper man Zhang almost killed me with his tricks before. Although I didn't die, my parents did. If he doesn't come to trouble me, I will settle this matter with him."

Her tough performance was beyond Fan Bisei's expectation.

However, this is the case for those who control ghosts. After dealing with ghosts for a long time, they will inevitably be affected by the evil spirits, and their temperament will become gloomy, cruel and lonely, making it extremely difficult to deal with.

At this time, she was pregnant with the evil spirit, and her mentality was inflated for a moment, and she didn't know what the world was like. Fan Bisheng had seen such people before, and most of them didn't live long. In the later stage, they were affected by the evil spirit, and their actions became more and more difficult to control.

Within a year and a half, if you don't die in the hands of ghosts, you will die in the hands of the court.

But that is for the future, and now Zhao Fusheng is about to lose control.

If she is allowed to continue and kill Lao Zhang, it is very likely to anger Paper Man Zhang.

She controls the devils and is not afraid of trouble, but the Fan brothers will have a headache.

The most important thing is that her words revealed a message that made Fan Bisei uneasy: she was remembering the death of her parents and was only temporarily enduring it.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me—"

When Lao Zhang saw that even the paper man Zhang could not scare her, he suddenly thought of the ghost controllers from the Demon Suppression Division in the past, and he felt even more frightened.

"What do you want to take away from the Demon Suppression Division?"

Zhao Fusheng asked again.

"I..." Lao Zhang paused after hearing this. After a while, despair flashed in his eyes:
"I, I said the wrong thing, I just want money..."

He was obviously extremely afraid of the ghost on Zhao Fusheng, but it seemed that there was something more terrifying than the ghost. As he spoke, he would rather die at the hands of the ghost than reveal more.

"Fu Sheng, paper man Zhang, he——"

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Fan Bisheng quickly tried to smooth things over again:

"He is not easy to deal with. In the past, when Zhao Qiming was still alive, he was on good terms with him. If you want to control the Demon Suppression Division, why should you antagonize him? What's more, the power of the evil ghost cannot be used rashly unless it is absolutely necessary..."

"What are you afraid of?" Zhao Fusheng said deliberately:
"You also know that I will definitely die. The difference is that I will die early and die later. If he wants to cause trouble for me, my parents are dead anyway, and I am alone and can't live long, so I will fight him to the death."

Her attitude was tyrannical, as if there was no room for negotiation at all.

Fan Bisheng was immediately speechless.

Even though he was as shrewd as he was, he looked at his younger brother at a loss at this moment, and Fan Wujiu didn't even dare to say anything.

Lao Zhang's face was full of despair. When he saw this scene, he led the two incense and paper money shop owners who looked like mannequins. At some point, he quietly exited the Demon Suppression Department, slipped back to the shop, and even closed the door tightly.

Just when everyone thought there was no room for maneuver in this matter, Zhao Fusheng suddenly changed the subject, his face turned cold, and he smiled so hard that his eyes curled up:

"But Brother Fan is right."

As soon as she let go of her hand, the coffin spreader's legs became unstable, and it fell to the ground with a pop.

"We are all neighbors, so don't do anything too extreme, right?" she asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes -" Lao Zhang escaped from death and nodded desperately.

"I miscalculated the cost of the coffin. How can a coffin cost three taels of silver?" He was so frightened that he was sweating, but he didn't dare to reach out and wipe it:

"Besides, as a native of Wan'an County, now that the Demon Suppressor is in trouble, I have a duty to help. How can I continue to collect old debts? Why not just write them off..."

He was really afraid of the ghost in Zhao Fusheng, and he was also afraid that he would lose his life if he received something that didn't belong to him.

"I will give Zhao Lingsi two more coffins..."

"No! How can I let you give it away?" Zhao Fusheng said with great righteousness.

"Well, the money for the coffin is still calculated, so you can't lose money, but we really don't have the money now..."

"I don't want money..." Lao Zhang expressed his position tremblingly.Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Fusheng changed his tone:
"I don't have money, but I have a position. Now I am the commander of the Demon Suppression Department. Everything is up to me. I will now make the decision to drag you into the government office."

"No, no, no -" Lao Zhang was shocked when he heard this, and then refused hastily. Zhao Fusheng took his hand and said seriously:
"As soon as you join the Suppressing Demon Division, you will be a member of the imperial court in life and a ghost of the imperial court in death. In the future, once the crisis in Wan'an County is over, the imperial court will give you the money you owe."

"I..." Lao Zhang's eyes widened.

"Don't worry." Zhao Fusheng interrupted him:
"No job is more stable than a job in the imperial court. This is a law that has not changed for thousands of years!"

She said categorically: "If you work for a few more years, the court will take care of you in the future -" She made irresponsible promises. At the end, she turned to look at Fan Wujiu:
"Take out the book of souls and fate. Lao Zhang is not one of ours. I can't keep his coffin securely. I will have to borrow ghost money first to use it."

She blocked Lao Zhang's retreat with one word.

After finishing speaking, he added another sentence:
"Put the money you owe him in the account, and the court will pay it back in the future."

"..."

"..."

Fan Wujiu and Fan Bisei looked at each other.

Such a development was unexpected by no one. After Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, when he saw that the Fan brothers were still standing, he couldn't help but raised his eyebrows and urged:

"Don't go soon!"

Fan Bisheng retrieved the jade book. Before the ghost book, Lao Zhang resisted with all his strength.

He turned his head several times to look behind him. The fat man looked indifferent, as if he had lost all human compassion, and said nothing to the farce in front of him.

Zhao Fusheng looked at him with a smile and threats in his eyes.

In this world, human life is worthless. Although the person who controls the ghost is still a human in name, his mind has been distorted the moment he gets along with the ghost, and he is half human and half ghost when he loses control.

Lao Zhang is well aware that such people have a surly character. The Wan'an County Demon Division is now in name only. Zhao Fusheng's parents have both died. He is successful in controlling ghosts and acts crazy and regardless of the consequences. He has no choice at all.

In the end, he had no choice but to bite his index finger and blood dripped onto the blood book.

In an instant, a black shadow wrapped in blood appeared on the jade book, turning into a half-bald man about the height of a palm.

The figure exuded a look of malice, which eventually turned into a bloody name: Zhang Chuanshi.

When Zhao Fusheng saw this scene, he smiled:
"very good."

"Aren't you afraid of my nephew..."

Zhang Chuanshi was forced to join the Demon Suppression Division, and he was extremely unwilling to do so.

At this time, he knew the situation of the Demon Suppressor in Wan'an County very clearly. As soon as a drop of blood entered the soul book, he was bound here in disguise.

Once the evil spirit in Zhao Fusheng gets out of control, as a member of the Demon Suppression Division, he will also be in crisis.

"I'm not sure how long I'll live, so how can I have time to worry about other things?"

Zhao Fusheng achieved his goal and smiled:
"Everyone is on their own now. You can send two coffins over. My father and mother's bodies must be laid to rest as soon as possible."

"Humph!"

……

Zhang Chuanshi left with the pot-bellied guy with an ugly expression on his face. He didn't even take the account books placed on the ground before leaving.

Zhao Fusheng ignored him. Anyway, if he left now, he would come back.

The Book of Souls and Life is in her hands, and he cannot leave Wan'an County. As for what he wants to take away from the Demon Suppression Division, he will have the opportunity to find out in the future.

If this man didn't bring the coffin, she would just go to his shop and carry it herself.

She looked at the book of souls and fate, hesitated for a long time, and did not put it back into the box, but put it into her lapel.

This action made Fan Bisheng startled.

"I want to keep this thing close to my heart." She put the things away and said.

Fan Bidi didn't say anything.

This thing was indeed kept by the commander as usual, but this thing is wrapped in a ghost spell. In this way, it is disguised as having another 'ghost' tied to his side. Every move is most likely to be transmitted through the soul book. It fell into Jia Yi's "eyes", so the general commander would place this thing separately.

But he thought that Zhao Fusheng was a ghost controller. She must have been worried that the ghost in her body would gradually lose control, so she wanted to use this object to suppress the ghost in her body.

He nodded without making a sound.

Zhao Fusheng asked:
"How are ghost cases handled in the Demon Suppression Department?"

"..." Fan Bisei glanced at her with a strange expression.

When she threatened Lao Zhang before, she smiled with a chilling smile. Now when she mentioned the ghost case, her expression was serious, and she didn't look like she was joking.

"Fusheng, dealing with ghosts is not fun." He frowned and reminded:

"The horror of ghosts is indescribable. At this time, you are the only one in Wan'an County, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Why not have a good time? Why don't you think about these ghost cases?"

"I said, I want to take over the Demon Suppression Division again, and taking on ghost cases is what I want to do."

Zhao Fusheng frowned.

She is completely different from the previous Zhao Fusheng, and she has never considered hiding her personality.

Maybe she was pregnant with a ghost, so Fan Bisheng felt vaguely pressure when he talked to her again.

Fan Bisheng was silent for a long time, and finally gave up persuading, and had no choice but to say:
"Generally speaking, if there is a ghost appearing in the local area, someone must report it first, and then the Demon Suppression Division will dispatch."

But dealing with ghosts is not easy.

Demon-suppressing officers from all over the country are faced with some difficult situations. They hide and push whenever they can.

As long as the situation is not bad enough, the main purpose is to suppress public opinion. The court will first deceive the matter, and then report it if the matter becomes too big to be dealt with.

Generally speaking, as long as it doesn't cause chaos in the local area, the court is unable to control these ghost masters in all aspects. Most of the time, they just turn a blind eye and close one eye. On the surface, everyone can get by.

For ordinary civilians, although ghosts are scary, sometimes they are not as evil as the human heart.

People who control ghosts deal with ghosts, and many people think they are no different from ghosts.

The most terrifying thing is that they may be greedy, lustful, malicious, and crueler than ghosts.

Sometimes some families would rather have their relatives be harmed by ghosts than report it to the Demon Suppressor, for fear of causing worse consequences that would affect the whole family.

Under such circumstances, the frequency of ghost incidents under the jurisdiction of various counties is actually not high.

Even in places like Wan'an County, where ghost fog is gradually appearing, there are actually very few people who report the crime.

"In the past six months, there have indeed been sporadic reports."

But the Demon Suppressing Division was also in crisis at that time, and the Fan brothers themselves were in trouble, so how could they have the time to deal with these things?
