I become a god in another world

Chapter 254 Convening a meeting
Chapter 254

Kuai Manzhou looked pale and stood behind Zhao Fusheng with a serious expression to massage her, seemingly turning a deaf ear to the conversation in the private room.

Zhao Fusheng looked at Po Meng and raised his eyebrows:
"Are you willing to join the Demon Suppression Division?"

"Yes."

Po Meng nodded:

"Thanks to you for not giving up, now I know the cause and effect, and I want to join the Demon Suppression Division." She said:

"Red shoes—red shoes—"

Although Zhao Fusheng speculated that the Red Shoes Ghost was most likely the resurrected ghost after Shen Yishu's death, Meng Po still could not say the word "ghost":
"It could be my daughter. Now it's killing people and committing crimes. I can't just watch -"

She didn't finish the rest of her words, but looked at Zhao Fusheng.

"I see."

Zhao Fusheng said.

When Po Meng heard what she said, she couldn't help but smile:

"I know adults will understand me."

The two people's mindless conversation made the little girl, who seemed to be engrossed in the conversation, raise her head in confusion.

"Fusheng, what do you understand? I don't understand."

Although Kuai Manzhou is extremely smart, she is still a child after all, and she cannot understand some of the twists and turns in the adult world.

Zhao Fusheng smiled and said:

"Mother Meng is worried that the Red Shoe Ghost Case is related to her daughter. If she wants to join the Demon Suppression Division, she probably also wants to participate in the investigation of this ghost case."

When she said this, Po Meng nodded, with wetness in her eyes:

"To be honest with you, my father was a servant under the Northern Army Guards in Changzhou when he was alive. He hated evil very much and was fair and just. When he was alive, he couldn't bear to see people bullying others."

Recalling the past, the wrinkles on her face gradually relaxed:
"When he was still alive, he taught us brothers and sisters not to make mistakes and to do things with a clear conscience."

After saying that, he felt a little embarrassed and pressed his hair with his hand:

"It's a bit rude of me to say this. I neither control ghosts nor have any abilities. I can only enter the Demon Suppressing Division because of your mercy. I'm afraid that you will laugh at me for not overestimating my own ability to investigate this ghost case, so -"

So she stopped mid-sentence.

As expected, Zhao Fusheng understood what she meant, which made Po Meng feel relieved and a little grateful.

After Kuai Manzhou heard what she said, he put his hands around Zhao Fusheng's shoulders, turned his head to one side and looked at Zhao Fusheng:
"Fu Sheng, is it true?"

"Fake!"

Zhao Fusheng pinched her pale face:
"Our language is broad and profound. Po Meng is teasing you."

"I don't understand." Kuai Manzhou said in confusion.

"I did suspect from the beginning that the case of the Red Shoe Ghost was related to the case of Mrs. Meng's daughter's disappearance." She explained to Kuai Manzhou:
"There are too many similarities between the two, and Po Meng has been pursuing it for so many years. If she can get a result, it will be a good thing for her."

But after the ghost car incident, she realized that there was something strange about Po Meng, and when Kuai Manzhou met Po Meng for the first time, she noticed that the blood on Po Meng's body was shocking, which made her even more suspicious that Po Meng had an intercourse with some big ghost. Law interaction.

"So I recruited her. I originally wanted her to avoid the ghosts seeking her life, but when she was agitated, she activated the law of ghosts, causing a red moon to appear in the city. This proves that Po Meng may have more power than we imagined. ——”

When Zhao Fusheng said this, he paused and then said with a smile:

"The fact that she finally regained consciousness was not entirely due to me calling her, but to her own extraordinary willpower."

"You must be aware of such a power, even if Po Meng cannot completely control it, right?" Zhao Fusheng asked.

She left home alone and traveled for many years. To be able to survive safely until now, she must have her own way to save her life.

When Po Meng heard this, she just pursed her lips and lowered her head, without saying a word to refute.

"Since Po Meng is an extraordinary person and can summon the blood moon, she naturally has the confidence to join the Demon Suppression Division."

"I understand." Kuai Manzhou said:
"So Mrs. Meng has the ability, but she also says that she has no ability."

Zhao Fusheng said calmly:

"It's called humility."

"Oh." Kuai Manzhou seemed to understand and nodded.

Po Meng's eyes gradually softened as she watched the conversation between the elder and the younger.

She originally felt very bad after hearing the news that her daughter might have died 43 years ago, but now she felt much better after hearing this conversation.

Talking to Zhao Fusheng always makes her feel relaxed and at ease.

She wiped her eyes:

"I did feel that I was very powerful before, especially after my daughter disappeared. Two or three men are no match for me." She also vaguely felt that something was wrong, but did not think about it in detail.

Firstly, her mind was completely focused on finding the whereabouts of her daughter, and secondly, she had doubted whether she had been possessed by evil spirits.

But after decades, she was still living well and had never encountered any evil in her life.

Even if something happened in the begging alley, the ghost domain would stop right in front of her stall. She was so lucky and extraordinary that she naturally wouldn't think about it elsewhere.

It wasn't until today that she felt strange in her heart, and Mrs. Meng finally confirmed that she might have been connected with ghosts unknowingly, and she also found out the reason why her strength has been far stronger than that of ordinary old women over the years.

After chatting, Po Meng said seriously:
"In addition to wanting to find out the red shoe case, your Excellency also reminded me of another sentence."

If the evil spirit in the Red Shoe Ghost Case is really Shen Yishu, then Shen Yishu was killed by someone. She committed evil unconsciously after her death, but the person who harmed others did it intentionally.

Such people should be cut to pieces and do not deserve to live in this world!

"I want to find the real murderer and make him pay with his life." She gritted her teeth, and when she spoke, a shadow appeared on her face again, and a ghostly look appeared.

But this time she wasn't completely out of control.

At the moment when the ghost energy dissipated, the door god's mark reappeared on her forehead, competing with the blood and light to form a balance.

"It's natural."

Zhao Fusheng nodded:
"However, after joining the Demon Suppressing Division, you need to fill the soul book with blood." After speaking, Zhao Fusheng added:
"It's easy to join the company, but after joining the Demon Suppression Division, your stall -"

Po Meng said without hesitation:
"Of course I won't set up a stall anymore."

She originally set up a stall to find her daughter's whereabouts. In her early years, she learned that Shen Yishu had been abducted and appeared in a begging alley.

Now that there are new clues about her daughter, she no longer needs to stay in the begging alley selling soup day after day.

"I will move to the Demon Suppression Division in the future. If you have a case next time, I will also be willing to accompany you." After that, he added:

"I just can't bear to part with my belongings, especially that pot, which has been with me for many years—"

Zhao Fusheng said:
"After that, I'll ask Brother Fan to find someone to take you back, pack your things and come back to the Demon Suppression Division."

"Then I'll trouble you, sir." Po Meng didn't refuse.

After the two sides finished talking, Zhao Fusheng took out the book of souls and fate, and Po Meng took the jade book. The jade book seemed to bite people.

When it fell into her hands, a large number of ghost curses appeared on the jade book, covering Po Meng's palm.

But as soon as the ghost curse touched Po Meng's palm, it seemed to be restrained and it suddenly retracted into the jade book.

Po Meng looked at her fingers.

Wherever she looked, she saw a needle-like red dot suddenly appear on the tip of her finger.

Then the red dot grew bigger and bigger, and soon formed a drop of blood like a soybean. She wiped the blood drop onto the jade book.

The blood beads soaked into the jade book, and the soul and life book suddenly trembled after being forced to inhale this drop of blood.

Zhao Fusheng seemed to hear a sharp and piercing scream in his ears, and then a blood-red shadow of an old lady with a rickety back appeared on the jade book.

The shadow of the mini old lady was shrouded in blood and looked particularly eerie.

The soul book trembled crazily and could not calm down for a long time.

The blood beads that Po Meng wiped on turned into bright red blood lines and wandered among the emerald green jade books, as if they were carving words on them.

About half a quarter of an hour later, two words finally appeared on it: Po Meng.

Zhao Fusheng's eyes narrowed.

After the soul is touched on the soul and destiny book with blood, the ghost will hold a ray of the person's soul as hostage, and the soul and destiny book will show the true name and identity of the person who touched the blood.

Ever since she got this book, there has been no exception.

Although Po Meng claims to be called 'Meng Po', this may be related to her age. Her real name may not be that name.

But at this time, the word 'Meng Po' appears on the soul and destiny book, which shows that there is something wrong with the soul and destiny book.

Jia Yi, who controls the ghosts, is far away in the imperial capital and cannot control the soul and destiny book. Therefore, the strangeness in the soul and destiny book should be related to Po Meng.

Combined with the strange thing that happened when Po Meng was drawing blood, Zhao Fusheng guessed that the jade book in his hand might have been out of control - or that its power was limited. When collecting the life soul, it not only failed to control Meng Po, maybe she was influenced by Po Meng, which is why the soul book did not record the real name of 'Meng Po', but only recorded 'Meng Po'.

She did not point out this point, but put away the soul book as if nothing had happened, and said to Po Meng:
"Whatever you need to collect or bring with you in the future, just tell the Yamen officers."

Zhao Fusheng paused, and then his eyes became shrewd:

"Besides, you are no longer in business, but after joining the Demon Suppression Division, you will also receive a salary, and someone will take care of three meals a day." She leaned back on the chair and raised her legs:
"But favors are favors, and the ghost case in the Yamen has to be discussed separately."

She said:
"I just branded you the door god in order to wake you up. If there is a ghost case later, you have to go with me."

Seeing that she quickly stopped her previous compassion and concern and began to speak openly, Po Meng couldn't help but find it interesting. She pursed her lips and smiled:
"That's right. Your Excellency, you don't mind my old age and frailty. Just move slowly."

"You are not old and infirm—" Zhao Fusheng shook his head.

Ever since she enshrined the Zhao family as gods and printed for others, whether she was printing for Zhang Chuanshi or making ghost seals for Zheng He and Wu Shaochun, she could gain incense value.

But after printing it for Po Meng, there was no reminder on the list of gods.

In other words, Po Meng was not a believer in the door god—Zhao Fusheng’s thousand merits were worth nothing.

This should be due to Meng Po's own special situation.

"Haha." Po Meng laughed twice.

The two of them talked for a few more words. Zhao Fusheng was in a good mood as he settled a matter that was on his mind and uncovered a corner of the mystery of the Blood Moon.

She loudly called Fan Bisheng in and asked him to arrange for someone to send Po Meng home to pick up her belongings. She also asked him to find someone to tidy up the wing, and add Po Meng's name to Pang Qing's residence list.

After everything was explained and Fan Bisheng left with Po Meng, Zhao Fusheng leaned back in his chair comfortably and shouted:

"Manzhou, pinch your neck."

……

There is not much free time left for Zhao Fusheng.

After the blood moon appears, Magistrate Pang and all the gentry and merchants in the county may come quickly to ask about the reason.

Zhao Fusheng's mind was not on these trivial matters. She thought of Confucius Temple and Liu Yizhen.

"The blood moon is in the sky, and hundreds of ghosts are walking at night -" She squinted her eyes to enjoy the child's massage, and remembered the prophecy of Xu Yu's prophecy mentioned by Fan Bishi in her mind.

The blood moon has appeared, but there is no scene of hundreds of ghosts walking at night in the county.

However, after the incident, Fan Bisheng rushed into the room and mentioned that there was something strange about the Demon Suppressor's sign, which proved that the appearance of the blood moon would indeed trigger a series of strange movements of ghosts.

There were two big ghosts at the Confucius Temple who had just reached a balance. I wonder if Liu Yizhen was affected.

Thinking of this, she became more and more uneasy, and couldn't help but take out the soul book in her arms and look at it.

Liu Yizhen's name was still on it. She rubbed the name twice, and an image of a black and red little man with a face full of resentment appeared on it. A pair of dark ghost eyes looked at Zhao Fusheng coldly.

Zhao Fusheng's previous rubbing caused blood to flow from the figure's body, and an unknown premonition surged into Zhao Fusheng's heart.

She sat up quickly and said:

"No, I have to go to Confucius Temple later."

But she ultimately failed to travel.

Because not long after, not only Pang Zhixian and others came as she expected, wanting to ask her about the reason for the previous blood moon, but Fan Bisheng also brought her another news: Liu Yizhen was here.

This young man who had been staying at the Confucius Temple to suppress the two ghosts left the Confucius Temple again.

Liu Yizhen has a cautious temperament and should know the responsibilities of a ghost guardian. Since he can't help but come, something big must have happened in the temple.

Zhao Fusheng handed over the errand of greeting Magistrate Pang and others to Brother Fan Bisheng, while he himself summoned Zhang Chuanshi and Po Meng to meet Liu Yizhen.

The number of envoys from the Wan'an County Demon Division has gradually increased. They all work together in name, but so far they have not sat together seriously.

The appearance of the blood moon is no small matter. She must make some preparations before the blood moon comes.

……

Pang Zhixian, Yu Weide and others were placed in the west wing, with the two brothers Fan Bisheng responsible for greeting and comforting them. The people from the Suppressing Demon Division gathered in the east wing, led by Zhao Fusheng, to prepare for a meeting under her control. The first official meeting since An County.

"It's just a small disturbance tonight. The adults will resolve it quickly——"

Fan Bisheng was still talking to Magistrate Pang and others, while Fan Wujiu was absent-minded and frequently looked to the other side. He didn't even notice that his elder brother glared at him.

Until Fan Bisheng finished speaking, he frowned and shouted: "Wujiu, what are you thinking!"

"Brother, I also want to go to Fusheng."

Fan Wujiu waited for this opportunity to speak.

He saw helplessly that his colleagues had gone to the other side, not knowing what they were talking about, but he and his brother had to stay behind to greet these old men from Wan'an County...

"Fusheng said that we haven't spoken since the restart of our Demon Suppression Division. I want to take advantage of tonight's blood moon incident to have something to say, and I want to hear it too!"
