I become a god in another world

Chapter 258 Improving Strength
Chapter 258

"good idea?"

Zhang Chuanshi frowned, then thoughtfully:
"I understand."

Fan Bisheng's mind was also bright. After thinking about it for a moment, his eyes lit up:
"I understand too."

"clear?"

Fan Wujiu was confused: "What do you understand?!"

Everyone was sitting in the hall of the east wing.

He clearly heard every word spoken by Zhao Fusheng and Liu Yizhen, but he had no idea what Fan Bisheng understood.

When he saw everyone's expressions of understanding, he was afraid that everyone would find out that he was stupid, so he pretended to "understand" and nodded as if he suddenly understood.

Fan Wujiu rolled his eyes and saw Po Meng sitting next to him with a smile. He quickly asked her: "Meng Po, do you understand?"

Po Meng laughed twice and said:
"Your Majesty, the ghosts restrain each other and reach a balance before they fall into a state of sleep and cannot kill."

"Yeah, yeah." Fan Wujiu nodded:

"anything else?"

"The two ghosts in Confucius Temple originally reached a balance, but as soon as the ghost troupe arrived, the balance was broken."

Zhao Fusheng also said these words. Fan Wujiu could no longer pretend, and said in confusion: "But the master said that the ghost theater troupe is not strong enough to break the balance."

"Sooner or later." Po Meng said with a kind face:
"So my lord wants to take away the headless ghost first and leave Liu Huacheng to confront the ghost troupe."

The reason why the Confucius Temple has undergone the current changes is because the headless ghost is coveted by the paper man Zhang. Once the headless ghost is taken away, no matter what back-ups the paper man Zhang arranges, at least his original purpose will not be achieved.

The paper man Zhang appears and disappears, and the ghost troupe has not yet appeared, but once Liu Huacheng reaches a balance with the ghosts, if the paper man Zhang appears again, the balance will be broken.

Humans cannot actively capture hidden ghosts, but ghosts can.

The moment the balance is broken, the ghosts will attack the paper man Zhang and trap him in the Confucius Temple - this is a disguised form of using ghosts to defeat ghosts.

Zhao Fusheng was reborn too late, and the arrangements of the Zhang family were made more than forty years ago. She was restrained in every way. This was the best way she could think of to temporarily restrain the paper man Zhang.

After Meng Po finished explaining, Fan Wujiu finally smiled:

"I understand too."

"But I don't know if I'm right or not. Everything is just my guess, haha." Po Meng laughed.

"you're right."

Zhao Fusheng nodded:
"The ghost troupe seems to be slightly weaker at the moment, but I can temporarily add a ghost seal to Liu Huacheng's coffin and suppress part of its strength, so that the two can reach a balance."

"As for the headless ghost trapped in the ghost coffin -" she looked at Liu Yizhen:
"I'll have to trouble you, Yizhen, to carry it on your back for now."

The headless ghost at this stage absolutely cannot be revived.

This evil ghost has the ability to restrain the power of evil spirits, and the consequences will be disastrous.

And Liu Yizhen has the ability to suppress the evil ghosts. The Liu family has guarded the headless ghosts for many years. Their understanding of this ghost is far better than that of the others in the Demon Suppression Department. Once there is any trouble with the headless ghosts, Liu Yizhen will be the first to discover and solve it.

Therefore, he is the best candidate to carry the ghost coffin.

"it is good."

Liu Yizhen nodded without hesitation.

Zhao Fusheng smiled and added:
"At that time, I will put a door god mark on the ghost coffin and on you respectively to reduce the risk of the headless ghost reviving and you being harmed."

As soon as she finished speaking, except for Po Meng and Kuai Manzhou, the faces of everyone else in the hall changed.

Zhang Chuanshi felt a little sour in his heart.

After Zhao Fusheng became the goalkeeper, he was the first person to be branded as a doorkeeper, and he has always been proud of it. Even though Zheng He and Wu Shaochun were branded one after another, Zhang Chuanshi was still famous for being the first to bear the ghost mark. Earned with pride.

But at this moment, Liu Yizhen broke the balance in his heart - this kid was able to coax Zhao Fusheng to make two seals for him without saying anything.

Zhang Chuanshi was about to make a scene.

But out of the corner of his eye, he saw Fan Wujiu, whose face suddenly turned red. This kid was a fool.

The butt he had just raised sat back on the chair.

As expected, Fan Wujiu shouted:

"Sir, this is unfair!"

Fan Bisheng failed to hold his younger brother back, and Fan Wujiu felt aggrieved:

"We are all the envoys of the Demon Suppression Department. This kid Liu Yizhen has never handled a case with the adults. I have acted with the adults twice. Even if we come first, we will not get his turn -"

"That's why I called everyone to discuss this meeting tonight."

Faced with Fan Wujiu's protest, Zhao Fusheng was mentally prepared. She said calmly:

"The red moon has appeared, and the probability of ghost cases in our Wan'an County may greatly increase in the future."

Zhao Fusheng has established his own prestige based on his strength.

As soon as she spoke, Fan Wujiu forcibly controlled his temper and listened to her continue:
"The paper man Zhang is dormant in the dark again. Our Demon Suppression Division now has a total of nine envoys. Except for Zheng He and Gu Jiansheng, who are not here, among the other seven, Manzhou and Shaochun have already controlled the ghosts."

Her words made Fan Wujiu a little anxious, but he didn't speak in a hurry.

Zhao Fusheng said again:
"Lao Zhang has a ghost mark and has controlled a very dangerous thing. There is no need to change it for the time being. For the rest of you who have not controlled ghosts, except for Po Meng, I will mark you as a door god so that you can survive in future ghost cases. Opportunity."

Her words made Fan Wujiu's eyes light up, and he subconsciously turned to look at his brother.

Fan Bisheng was a little overwhelmed, a little excited and mixed with fear.

"But the door god is a ghost after all. Once printed, there may be a crisis of losing control in the future." Although Zhao Fusheng intended to use printing to enhance the strength of the Wan'an County Town Magic Division and her own door god, she still warned of the danger:
"If you don't want to take the risk, you can refuse."

After she finished speaking, Fan Bisheng was still hesitating, while Fan Wujiu shouted excitedly:

"I want to print!"

"No help-"

Fan Bisheng panicked and pulled his brother.

Fan Wujiu said:
"Brother, what is there to hesitate about?"

The two brothers have already entered the Demon Suppression Division, Wan'an County is still there, and they will always stay here in the future.

As long as they are still in the county, once a ghost case occurs, the two of them cannot hide in the yamen forever and wait for others to handle the case.

"Since we all have to deal with ghost cases, why not get a ghost seal and have the strength to protect ourselves?"

Even if Zhao Fusheng showed mercy and was willing to let the two of them leave Wan'an County, under such circumstances, where could the two brothers go?
If it falls into the hands of other ghost masters, sooner or later it will end like countless envoys in the Han Dynasty - die at the hands of evil ghosts.

When Zhang Chuanshi heard this, he couldn't help but look at Fan Wujiu in surprise.

This kid seems to have no brains on weekdays, but at critical moments he is more decisive than Fan Bi.

"it is good!"

Although Fan Bishi was scared, what he said about the ghost mark made sense, and it aroused the bloody passion in Fan Bishi's heart.

He also doesn't want to be an envoy in the future, but he can only do trivial things.

If you want to get the attention of others, you must have equivalent strength.

Now Wu Shaochun has come from behind and has succeeded in controlling ghosts. The two brothers were obviously the first old men to follow Zhao Fusheng, and now they are probably the only one who can compare with Gu Jiansheng.

Thinking of this, Fan Bi died without hesitation:
"Sir, both of us brothers must be branded as door gods." "Okay."

Zhao Fusheng nodded:
"Since this is the case, without further ado, I will first place the ghost seal for you, and then accompany Yizhen to the Confucius Temple. Please return to the Headless Ghost."

She saw Fan Bisheng's unwillingness to deal with chores anymore and said:
"Afterwards, Brother Fan will promote someone from among the handymen to handle the affairs in the government office, but you still need to arrange some things tonight. You can find someone to clean up a quiet wing for Yizhen to live temporarily."

"it is good."

Fan Bisheng suppressed the excitement and anxiety in his heart and nodded in response.

Having finished what needed to be said, Zhao Fusheng stopped delaying and immediately stood up and walked to Liu Yizhen.

Liu Yizhen endured the pain and pulled away the cotton towel wrapped around his chest, revealing injuries so deep that his internal organs could almost be seen.

If it weren't for his special ability, the Confucius Temple Demon would have almost killed him when he revived.

But even though the special 'golden body' blocked the life-threatening attack of the ghost, the skin and flesh on the chest and back were scratched, revealing the dense white bones inside, and the black and red evil energy of the ghost remained on the bones.

Zhao Fusheng dipped his hand in blood and drew a blood-red 'door frame' on his back. He then activated the God List and summoned the Mark of the Door God.

As the 1000 merit points were deducted, the mark of the door god turned into two bloody ghosts, sneaking into Liu Yizhen's body.

As soon as the ghost blended in, the blood still seeping out from the criss-crossing wounds quickly seemed to be imprisoned by some mysterious force.

The blood was absorbed by Li Gui's power and shrank back into the flesh little by little.

The rolled wounds began to heal and shrink, and finally, in full view of the public, these originally terrifying wounds turned into blood lines densely covering Liu Yizhen's body.

The ghost figure carrying the door panel flashed twice, and then disappeared into Liu Yizhen's figure.

He only felt that as the ghost mark was laid down, the coldness to the bones was replaced by severe pain.

After a while, he took off the blood-stained cotton and linen bandage.

The injuries on his chest and back were completely restored under the influence of the ghost, but Liu Yizhen felt that there was indeed the aura of the ghost in his body.

The blood on the linen on his hands has not dried yet, but except for the remaining blood marks, he can no longer feel the injuries on his body.

"The power of the gate god is really strong."

He sighed.

As soon as he finished speaking, a prompt sounded in Zhao Fusheng's consciousness: The door god gained a devout believer, and the incense value was +1.

Zhao Fusheng was extremely satisfied with such a result.

Since controlling the door god and printing with ghosts and gods, Zhao Fusheng has collected 4 points of the door god's incense value.

She cast her eyes on Er Fan, and for some reason they both felt numb at the sight of her.

But Fan Wujiu had been waiting for this day for a long time, and now that the opportunity finally came, he no longer hesitated.

When he saw that Liu Yizhen's wound had recovered as good as before after the branding was completed, he looked forward to the power of the ghost even more.

He saw the scene when Zhang Chuanshi was printing that day. He was not injured at the moment, but he had been preparing a dagger, just to wait for this day and let Zhao Fusheng carve the door frame to restrain the door god on his back.

"grown ups!"

He took out the dagger and handed it to Zhao Fusheng.

This special 'door frame' painted with flesh and blood is not only a place for the gods to attach themselves to, but also a sacrifice to the door god with flesh and blood.

Zhao Fusheng took the dagger and quickly marked Fan Wujiu as a ghost.

Later, Fan Bisheng followed the same example. When the mark was laid, Zhao Fusheng's prompt on the list of gods in the sea of ​​​​knowledge also appeared: the door god gained devout believers, and the incense value was +2.

……

As soon as the three people from the Zhenmo Division were branded, the door god's incense value reached a total of 6 points.

The list of gods has reminded that when the incense value reaches 10 points, the power of the door god will change.

While Zhao Fusheng was satisfied, he felt distressed for a moment when he saw that he only had 9104 merit points left in his consciousness.

After that, the headless ghost's ghost coffin needs to be branded again, and another 1000 merit points have to be removed.

The remaining 8104 merit points are enough for her to find another 4 points of incense points for the door god to advance to the next level.

She returned the dagger to Fan Wujiu and looked at the two brothers who were holding back their excitement:

"The brand has been laid. If there is no ghost case, the door god's brand should not show up."

The two brothers were touching their chests and backs, feeling a little panicked but also a little happy.

Both of them could feel the coolness when the ghost entered their bodies, but this coldness did not get out of control. After the power of the ghost was restrained, it quickly became dormant in the body.

In the past, Fan Bisheng always thought that everything related to ghosts was extremely dangerous, but now after taking the ghost mark, he felt a rare sense of relief.

It seemed that the fear of ghosts that had always been there had dissipated a lot now that he had the protection of the door god.

"Ghosts are not necessarily scary."

He touched his chest and whispered.

Finally, he and his brother looked at each other, and both of them showed happy expressions on their faces.

"All right."

What needs to be done tonight has been done, and what needs to be said has been said.

For Zhao Fusheng, today can be regarded as a harvest night.

Not to mention the addition of Meng Po in Wan'an County's Demonic Town, Confucius Temple removed a headless ghost, Liu Yizhen temporarily joined the Demonic Town, Erfan got the ghost seal, and her door god incense value increased - everyone can say Everyone is happy.

She had something to do later, so she sent Po Meng and others to rest first.

Po Meng knew that she had to go to Confucius Temple and originally wanted to go with her, but Zhao Fusheng refused:

"You will be accompanied by Manzhou, and you will stay in the Demon Suppressing Division."

The paper figures were hidden in the dark, and Zhao Fusheng couldn't completely rest assured until the headless ghost was successfully moved away.

Although Po Meng is not a ghost at this time, she has the ability to influence ghosts. With her in charge of the Demon Division, Zhao Fusheng can feel at ease.

Er Fan was happily sent away, and Zhang Chuanshi returned to his room melancholy.

After everyone left, Zhao Fusheng took Kuai Manzhou and quietly left the Demon Suppression Division at night with Liu Yizhen and came to the Confucius Temple.

……

It was late at night and the begging alley was extremely quiet.

The moon in the sky has faded from its blood color, and the moonlight pours down like silvery water, shining on the paths of Beggaring Alley.

The short, narrow, dilapidated houses on both sides form undulating shadows under the light and shadow. The environment here is quiet, but it exudes a creepy and dangerous feeling.

After the case of the beggar was settled, the ghost community dispersed, but the place never regained its previous popularity.

Even though it was a place where no one had set foot during the day, Zhao Fusheng and the other three entered the place after nightfall.

For Zhao Fusheng, Begging Alley is a very special place.

Here she experienced her first fight with a ghost, gained the qualification to gain a foothold in this world, and also 'got her first pot of gold' from a beggar ghost.

The three of them walked side by side, their shadows stretched on the ground.

The bloodstains from the ghost case that occurred here that day have been cleaned up, but the houses destroyed by the ghosts have not been repaired and exude an air of desolation.
