Chapter 238

When Zhao Fusheng saw the end of the letter, he saw that the handwriting was twisted. It was obvious that Xu Yachen was extremely frightened when he wrote this letter.

Her eyes fell on the request for mercy, and she pondered for a long time.

Yu Weide didn't dare to say anything.

But with Zhao Fusheng's shrewdness, he naturally knew that the old man's silence at this time was also a form of 'begging for mercy'.

If he had no intention of standing up for Xu Yachen, he would not have carried the letter with him at all and presented the letter to himself at the same time.

After a few breaths, Zhao Fusheng folded the letter again and was about to put it into the envelope. Fan Bisheng, who was very discerning, stepped forward to take it, put the letter in order, and handed it back to Wei De's hand.

The old gentleman couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Talking to smart people is a pleasure.

A few people almost formed a tacit understanding as they passed and received each other.

Zhao Fusheng did not get angry, which proved that she accepted Yu Weide's hint and forgave Xu Yachen's 'default'.

Ever since he received Xu Yachen's letter, Yu Weide had been unable to eat and sleep restlessly. It was not until he received the letter again that his heart finally fell.

This letter is no longer a hot potato. If the sky falls, there will be a tall person to pick it up.

"Sir, Brother Yachen has already mentioned in his letter about the Hongquan Opera Troupe, but the specific details are not clear. Perhaps we will only know after Brother Yachen comes to Wan'an County and asks about it."

Yu Weide stuffed the letter into his sleeves and picked up the crutch again:
"Based on what I know about this old friend, he must be feeling extremely guilty at this time and is waiting at home for his punishment."

After talking about business, the expressions of Pang Zhixian and others gradually returned to normal.

Although no one else had seen the letter, everyone already knew about the disappearance of the Hongquan Troupe.

"Sir, did the troupe take the money and escape?"

Fan Bisheng was the first to ask questions.

"No." Zhao Fusheng shook his head.

These people had not read the letter, she explained to everyone:

"The theater troupe disappeared suddenly. After the disappearance, Xu Yachen checked the family's finances and found that there was no loss." She added:
"Except for the two boys assigned to wait on the theater troupe, there is no shortage of people registered in the family."

What she said was equivalent to telling everyone that there was no possibility for the troupe to elope with Miss Xu and the maid.

"The number of people is not small, and there is no loss of property, it means that they are not escaping privately." Fan Bisheng analyzed:
"The Hongquan Troupe has received the blessing of adults, and the possibility of leaving privately is quite low."

The Han Dynasty was plagued by ghost disasters. The theater troupes traveled from village to village in order to make a living, and the chance of accidents was far higher than that of ordinary people.

Now that they have found a supporter like Zhao Fusheng, it stands to reason that they should wait and settle in Wan'an County temporarily.

Now that all possibilities of them leaving on their own initiative have been ruled out, Fan Bisei guessed:

"Sir, has a bad ghost resurrected in Xu Yachen's home?"

When he spoke, he turned to look at Yu Weide's face.

Yu Weide was the first person to read the letter. If a ghost disaster happened to the Xu family, Xu Yachen would not only write to apologize, but also ask for help.

But Yu Weide's expression did not change after hearing Fan Bisheng's words, which meant that the Xu family should have found a way to rule out the possibility of ghost trouble.

It's not a ghost disaster, it's really strange that so many people are missing mysteriously.

"I don't know if there is a ghost resurrecting in Xu Yachen's home, but I'm sure there is a ghost in it." Zhao Fusheng sneered:
"Even if it's not a real ghost, someone is still causing trouble."

"Is someone causing trouble?"

Magistrate Pang was surprised when he heard this.

At this moment, a shrill scream suddenly came from the hall:

"what!!!"

Zhang Chuanshi, who was hiding in the corner, crawled out from under a bench.

A thin black line dangled in mid-air, and a drop of blood slid down the black line. When it reached the end of the line, the blood drop turned into a pair of dark pupils.

These eyes hung on black threads, almost touching Zhang Chuanshi's eyes. They exuded a cold aura, which made his scalp numb. The sparse hair roots in front of his shiny forehead stood up visibly, and he let out another deafening scream. .

"Ahhhh!!!"

"Manzhou."

Zhao Fusheng shouted.

A criss-crossing blood line quickly appeared around the pupil, and snow-white bones and bright red flesh began to grow rapidly above the blood line. In an instant, a little girl appeared out of thin air in front of everyone as if she had transformed into a living person.

Although Pang Qing and others already knew that Kuai Manzhou was a ghost controller and understood that this little girl liked to use the power of ghosts, seeing the strange scene of the child with their own eyes still left an indelible and terrifying shadow in everyone's hearts.

"..."

Even Yu Weide, who hated Zhang Chuanshi with gritted teeth, couldn't help but sympathize with the old man.

Zhang Chuanshi was so frightened that he peed his pants. He crawled hard on the ground with his arms and dragged his legs as soft as cotton toward Zhao Fusheng.

"Sir, look at her -" Zhang Chuanshi complained with an aggrieved look:

"This man is scary to death. Sir, please take care of him."

The little girl was hanging on the thin thread with an expressionless face. When Zhang Chuanshi complained, another thread hung down from above and was twisted into a thin thread with the blood thread that Kuai Manzhou was originally climbing on.

She hung up and sat on it, like sitting on a swing. With a pair of small feet, her thin body swayed high.

The child's hair was flying in the air. When she heard Zhang Chuanshi's complaint, her expression was indifferent. Her eyes were filled with curiosity, a hint of provocation, and some dissatisfaction, which mixed into a kind of ignorant cruelty. The expression, coupled with her innocent and childish face, is chilling.

"I can't control it."

Zhao Fusheng shook his head and refused.

Her answer made Zhang Chuanshi dumbfounded.

Kuai Manzhou, who was swinging in the air, was startled for a moment, and his swing slowed down.

"Why can't you control it, sir? You are the commander of the Demon Suppression Division, and she, she is the commander -"

Zhang Chuanshi said aggrievedly:
"I was sitting behind the chair, and she came out of nowhere, crawled out from behind the chair and stabbed me in the back."

Originally, Zhang Chuanshi was not afraid at that time. His attention was still on the disappearance of the Hongquan Theater Troupe. When he noticed someone stabbed him in the back, he subconsciously turned around to look.

Behind it was empty.

He lay on the ground and looked, but there was no one on the ground.

Just when Zhang Chuanshi thought that he might be in a trance and having an illusion, he turned around and saw a pair of eyes that seemed to have been dug out alive, dangling against his face.

He didn't pass out with his eyes open on the spot. It was purely because he had worked on several ghost cases with Zhao Fusheng in recent months to build up his courage.

"Old Zhang——"

Zhao Fusheng's eyes suddenly became meaningful:

"We have so many people sitting here, including Xiaofan, Magistrate Pang, Mr. Pang, and Squire Yu. Why does Manzhou not tease others but why he teases you?"

"I, I don't know-"

Zhang Chuanshi was stunned by what she said and shook his head subconsciously.

"Sometimes you have to look for your own reasons." Zhao Fusheng pretended to be profound.

"What reasons do I have..." Zhang Chuanshi was still mumbling, but Zhao Fusheng had turned to look at Kuai Manzhou, his expression becoming stern:

"Manzhou, come here!"

As soon as she scolded, the hall became extremely quiet.

The child was dangling in mid-air and did not respond. Magistrate Pang and others gradually became uneasy.

Most of those who control ghosts have unruly temperaments. Kuai Manzhou is still young and is inherently uncertain. However, a child of this age controls powerful ghosts, which makes her temperament elusive and terrifying.

Zhao Fusheng was yelling at her in front of everyone, treating her like an ordinary child, which might arouse the child's rebellious spirit.

Just when everyone was scared - Kuai Manzhou kicked his legs hard and his body flew into the air.

When she was in mid-air, she suddenly jumped forward and flew towards Zhao Fusheng.

Zhao Fusheng opened her arms subconsciously, and the child's body fell into her arms like a light butterfly.

Then a pair of cold little hands wrapped around Zhao Fusheng's neck, and Kuai Manzhou pressed his face against her shoulder, softly admitting his mistake:

"Fusheng, I was wrong. I won't make fun of people next time."

When Zhang Chuanshi complained, Kuai Manzhou originally thought that Zhao Fusheng would immediately reprimand him.

But she didn't do what the child thought. Instead, she defended the little girl first and then called her name.

Tears suddenly welled up in the child's eyes:
"Fusheng, you are as good as my mother."

"..."

Zhao Fusheng originally wanted to say something to her, but after hearing what she said, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

She raised her hand in the air, and after a while, it fell on the child's back and patted her, then silently lowered the little girl back to the ground.

Zhao Fusheng took Kuai Manzhou's hand, skipped this episode, and looked at everyone:
"There is obviously something wrong with the disappearance of the Hongquan Theater Troupe." She resumed the topic interrupted by Zhang Chuanshi:

"This troupe is involved in a ghost case. I think the troupe's disappearance is very suspicious."

Fan Bisheng cast a fearful glance at Kuai Manzhou, who was being held by her side like a little follower, and asked tentatively: "What do you mean, sir, do you want to go to Baozhi County?"

"Yes."

Zhao Fusheng nodded:
"This thing is not normal. Whether it's a ghost or someone pretending to be a ghost, I'm going to get to the bottom of it."

"But Baozhi County is not our territory after all. We went out there rashly like this -"

Fan Bisheng was a little hesitant.

"It's out of the way."

Zhao Fusheng shook his head.

Zheng He gave up his position as Baozhi County Magistrate that day and brought her all the signs of the Baozhi County Magistrate. In Zhao Fusheng's mind, Baozhi County had already been designated as his own territory.

It's just that things in Wan'an County haven't been sorted out yet, so she can't spare any time to continue taking over Baozhi County.

Now that she has such an opportunity, she is ready to make another trip to Baozhi County in person.

"I'm afraid it will take two days to go back and forth."

Pangzhi County Road:

"My lord, you have been busy lately..."

"Tiredness is the second best thing." Zhao Fusheng's eyes were deep:

"I estimate that this trip will probably just come back in vain."

There was something in her words, and everyone turned to look at each other, not understanding what she meant.

Pang Qing, who had been silent since everyone mentioned the ghost case of the Hongquan Opera Troupe, suddenly spoke up:
"Sir, do you think the Hongquan Troupe is still alive?"

"Hard to say."

Zhao Fusheng suddenly turned his head and glanced south, then sighed silently.

Magistrate Pang and others also felt a little heavy.

"The Hongquan Opera Troupe has been around for many years and is an old troupe. I grew up in the Imperial Capital when I was young. When I was young, I went to see their operas in Beijing with my brother Qing."

Pang Qing nodded:

"Back then, Sebring's voice and figure were outstanding. As soon as she took the stage, there were huge crowds of onlookers."

After all, Hongquan Theater Troupe is a big troupe, with a lot of people.

It's a pity that a strange incident happened, and it is very likely that such a large team will be destroyed in an instant.

The mention of the topic about ghosts aroused the fear in Pang Qing's heart:
"This world is really not peaceful."

No one else spoke, and the atmosphere fell silent.

Later, when Zhao Fusheng asked about what happened in the Demon Suppression Division a few days after he left, everyone was not in a high mood and felt very depressed.

"correct."

Fan Bisheng said:
"Sir, Zhou Song from Wulitian Village came yesterday and said he wanted to report back to you about the cleanup matters in Kuailiang Village and Zhuangjia Village."

Zhao Fusheng said:

"Pang Zhi County will take over this matter." It is a matter of government affairs, which is originally a matter within Pang Zhi County.

She originally planned to meet Zhou Song to show that she valued the aftermath of Kuai Liang Village and make Zhou Song take notice.

Now that the disappearance of the Hongquan Theater Troupe has made Zhao Fusheng uneasy, he naturally has no time to deal with such political affairs.

"I don't have time to see him this time." But she always pays more attention to places where ghost cases have occurred under the jurisdiction of Wan'an County, and it is impossible to completely abandon them.

Zhao Fusheng thought for a while and added:
"Just let me know. Before this year's New Year, Magistrate Pang will inform all the major towns under Wan'an County on my behalf and order all their subordinate officials to enter the county town so that I can meet them. I know what I know."

When Magistrate Pang heard that the mission was coming, he not only didn't panic, he was actually a little happy.

Generally speaking, the commander of the ghost control department is impatient to deal with such noisy matters - the commander of the county-level demon-suppressing commander can only live for a year and a half at most. It is a miracle that Zheng He survived for two years.

At this time, Zhao Fusheng mentioned that she would meet with her subordinates before the new year, which proved that she was very confident that there would be no trouble in Wan'an County at least before the New Year. It also showed that the actual owner of Wan'an County was now in stable condition, and for Pang Zhi County For everyone in Wan'an County, this is undoubtedly great news.

"Yes!"

Magistrate Pang hurriedly stood up and responded:
"I will sort out the official documents when I return home later, and have Master copy them one by one and distribute them for delivery."

"The specific time will be discussed after I return from Baozhi County."

After Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, he said a few more words to everyone, and then waved his hands to signal everyone to disperse.

Pang Zhixian and others left one by one, and when Fan Bisheng was about to leave, Zhao Fusheng shouted:
"Brother Fan, stay."

She had something to say to Fan Bishi.

Fan Wujiu had a curious look on his face. Before going out, he frequently looked back and looked inside, as if he wanted to stay too.

Fan Bisheng was worried. After everyone left, he noticed that Kuai Manzhou, who had been following Zhao Fusheng, was also missing.

The hall was very quiet.

Zhao Fusheng sat on a chair, holding the cup with one hand, lifting the lid with his thumb, and took a sip of tea.

"Sir, do you want me to do something?"

Fan Bisheng saw her put down the tea cup and then asked aloud.

He was many times smarter than his brother with well-developed limbs and simple mind. He vaguely guessed Zhao Fusheng's intention almost as soon as Zhao Fusheng opened his mouth to call him.
