I become a god in another world

Chapter 346: Ghost Disaster Advancement
Chapter 346

If Huizhong was not still pregnant, with an increasingly stiff expression and a body that was so cold that there was no warmth at all, anyone would think she was a "living person".

She no longer actively talks to people around her, but if someone calls her, she will respond - but her reaction is a little slow.

At first, everyone in the nunnery wanted to conceal the matter, but Huizhong still walked around the nunnery as if she were reborn.

In this case, even if the people in the nunnery kept their mouths shut, unfortunately there is no wall that is impenetrable, and after a long time, rumors will still spread.

Outsiders did not understand how the nunnery's abbess had Huizhong strangled to death and her body dumped, so they spread rumors that the nunnery was "full of obscenity."

Guangci Temple originally relied on women from nearby families in Fengning County to burn incense and make donations. When this rumor spread, many female donors were worried that their reputation would be tarnished and refused to come.

The abbot was anxious, but he saw that Huizhong's daily routine was normal and there was nothing strange about her. There had been no disturbances in the nunnery recently, as if nothing had happened. So his fear subsided, but he started to have evil thoughts again.

So he used his evil plan again, and selected several strong nuns in the nunnery to work together to "kill" Huizhong again.

The process is not shown.

In short, the people in Guangci Temple were afraid that Huizhong was not "dead", so they returned to the temple, tied up her body, and tied it with large stones. In the end, they threw her into the well, and then sealed the well and covered it with heavy objects.

……

When Yu Ping said this, everyone who heard about this case felt a chill run down their spine.

If you were in their shoes, and found that the person you usually live with suddenly came back to life after the death, and most importantly, that person was killed by your own hands, the fear would be doubled.

This incident reveals an evil nature that makes people feel creepy from the bottom of their hearts.

After two attempts, the trouble was not solved, but became more difficult.

Huizhong, who was suppressed at the bottom of the well, came back again.

The people in the nunnery collapsed.

Even the host who ordered the killing twice was frightened. Firstly, he was afraid that Huizhong would die with his eyes open and turn into a ghost; secondly, he was afraid that the evil spirit would take revenge.

After much thought, the nuns surrendered themselves to the authorities in panic, confessed their crimes, and begged them to arrest the criminals.

People in the local county government were also shocked when they heard about this case.

It was obvious that there was something fishy about this case, and the government didn't dare to intervene, so they tried to shirk their responsibilities.

But the nuns were afraid of death and refused to return to Guangci Nunnery no matter what. Including the abbess who ordered the killings twice, they all took the initiative to ask the government to detain them.

The magistrate of Fengning County was helpless and had to muster up the courage to report the matter to the head of the local Demon Suppression Division.

'Ugh. '

Yu Ping sighed deeply:
"The chief officer of the Lingsi in Fengning County is a man who controls evil spirits. He took over the position of Lingsi only last year and has already handled three ghost cases."

This man himself was already on the verge of a ghost reviving, but the imperial order had not yet arrived, and he had not met the target for handling ghosts this year. When he heard about a strange case in the county, he had no choice but to go there.

"But there is no ghost." Zhong Yao said.

The situation was the same as that in Liuxi Alley in Changping County that day.

"This Lingsi went to Guangci Temple and indeed met Huizhong, whom the nuns mentioned."

And just as the nuns said, her belly was already showing and the fetus inside her looked to be at least six or seven months old.

There were no more pilgrims or believers in the huge nunnery, and the nuns ran to the government office out of fear to avoid disaster.

When the ghost handler from Fengning County's Demon Suppression Department bravely led people there, they found that Huizhong was the only one in the nunnery. She was still meditating, chanting scriptures, and living her life as usual.

There was no one cooking in the nunnery, but she was still holding the empty plate and pretending to serve rice. When the ghost rider arrived, she was sitting at the dining table, holding the empty plate with chopsticks, and scooping "rice" into her mouth one mouthful at a time - the scene was extremely weird.

The skin on her cheeks was dehydrated and looked wrinkled like dried fruit.

Fortunately, it was winter and she didn't smell bad yet.

When there were outsiders coming to the nunnery, Huizhong told them: The nunnery does not receive male guests.

At that time, the people from Fengning County Demon Suppression Bureau didn't know whether to be terrified or relieved, and they all left Guangci Temple.

As soon as he saw Huizhong, this experienced ghost hunter from Fengning County Demon Suppression Bureau knew that he could not handle this case.

Her condition was strange, and she did not show any frightening aggressiveness, but the ghost rider felt a shudder the moment he saw her, as if a great disaster would occur if he provoked her.

The ghost rider then reported the case to Changping County.

The Han Dynasty had a regulation that if a ghost disaster had a serious impact and the local demon-suppression department was unable to handle it, it would report it to the county government.

If the county government cannot handle it, it will report it to the state government.

"If it weren't for the two special ghost cases in Changping County earlier, the case in Fengning County would be just a small matter for the people in the county government."

It doesn't take much effort to deal with a strangely pregnant 'living dead'. If the one who controls the evil-level ghosts can't handle it, then just leave it to the one who controls the disaster-level ghosts to solve.

But with the previous two bizarre ghost cases, the strange thing in Guangci Temple in Fengning County was also a pregnant woman who was found to be alive, so the incident was immediately different.

Ding Datong realized at that time that this ghost case was no ordinary ghost case and it was very likely to have reached a disaster level.

"Our county government cannot afford such a catastrophic ghost case, so Ding Datong immediately reported it to the state government."

Zhao Fusheng hasn't spoken for a long time.

Ever since Yu Ping brought up this ghost case, she spent more time thinking than talking. Even Fan Wujiu, who had strong limbs but a simple mind, joined in the questioning, but she remained silent.

Everyone from Wan'an County present had followed her in handling cases before and were accustomed to her way and methods of handling cases. At this time, Zhao Fusheng's silence attracted everyone's attention.

Liu Yizhen hesitated to speak and glanced at Zhao Fusheng. She immediately realized Liu Yizhen's gaze and looked up at him.

Then Liu Yizhen looked at him and asked: Are you okay?
Zhao Fusheng shook his head imperceptibly.

She put away the distracting thoughts in her mind and asked Yu Ping:

"Did the state government send anyone afterward?"

When she asked this question, she already had the answer in her heart.

Changping County is one of the three major counties under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou, and it also governs several large counties. The existence of Changping County is very important to Xuzhou Prefecture and it is impossible to ignore it.

According to Yu Ping, Ding Datong is controlling a disaster-level evil ghost, and his condition is stable. He has not yet acted crazy, so the Xuzhou Demon Suppression Bureau will definitely take his request for help seriously.

Therefore, the provincial government will definitely lend a helping hand when Changping County asks for help.

But after this case, Changping County sent three more envoys to Wan'an County - this move was of great significance.

Yu Ping still mentioned the case of the living dead being pregnant, and even though the case had been taken over by the people from the state government, they still needed to ask for help from Wan'an County, which meant that the people from the state government had failed.

As her mind turned, Yu Ping nodded:
"coming."

"The people from the provincial government failed." Zhao Fusheng's words were not a question but an affirmation.

The corner of Yu Ping's mouth twitched, Zhong Yao's body trembled, and he said:
"The ghost rider from the state capital is dead."

This answer surprised Liu Yizhen and others.

Yu Ping calmed down his fear and said:
"The person sent by the prefecture is a ghost rider of the same rank as Ding Datong. The ghosts he rides are special. As long as there is water, he can drag people and ghosts into the water, even fierce ghosts of the same rank are no exception."

At this point, Yu Ping shook his head:
"We had made full preparations when we went to Guangci Temple in Fengning County."

Because Huo Huizhong was strangled to death by the nuns in the nunnery and pushed into a dry well in the back mountain - the nuns in Guangci Temple repeated this process twice.

The most important thing is that these people are still alive. The experience of the predecessors is the most important.

When the ghost riders from Xuzhou Prefecture arrived, they also prepared to follow the previous path of the nuns in Guangci Temple.

They found that although Huizhong was a living dead, she did not show any aggression towards strangers in the temple. However, when she saw a man entering the temple, she would persuade him to leave with a stiff face.

Therefore, the messengers in the Demon Suppression Division disguised themselves and entered the nunnery as nuns.

In order to prevent Huizhong from becoming suspicious, they even captured two of the original nuns and brought them in.

As a result, Huizhong no longer paid too much attention to the existence of these people and continued to live her own life.

After entering the nunnery, the disguised messenger rushed straight to the dry well in the back mountain and carried water to pour into the well.

After the dry well was filled with water again, "the ghost-controllers from the prefecture hid in the water, and the others were ordered to strangle Huizhong to death and then throw him into the well."

Once the living dead enters the well, the ghost rider hidden in the well will use the power of a ghost to drag Huizhong to the bottom of the well and trap her.

"The plan is good, and the nun was indeed thrown into the well." Yu Ping swallowed and clutched his pants tightly:

"But after throwing her down the well, the man from the state government cut open her belly while trying to catch her."

The mutation occurred at that moment.

The dead man's abdominal cavity exploded, squeezing out the fetus inside.

The ghost fetus has not been born yet and is wrapped in a thin film, looking particularly terrifying.

As soon as the ghost fetus touched the ghost rider's hand, it immediately drilled into the ghost rider's abdominal cavity.

"After the ghost rider unleashes the power of evil spirits, in some ways, he is no different from a ghost." Yu Ping said with some fear:

"But the man from the prefecture was also possessed by a ghost fetus after he turned into a ghost. His belly suddenly bulged up high, as if he was seven months pregnant."

No ghost can escape the parasitism of the ghost fetus!
At that time, the evil ghost was pregnant with ghosts, and the ghost rider's expression changed immediately.

"We didn't know what happened underwater. We just heard the water splashing and then it died down after a while."

After a few breaths, the body of a man with his abdomen ripped open suddenly emerged from the well.

The interior of the corpse was hollowed out, and the whole person looked like a pile of brittle bones wrapped in thin paper, with some women's hair, but there was no trace of the evil spirit.

Just as all the envoys were feeling terrified and uneasy, the envoys traveling with them began to show strange changes one after another.

The marking of evil spirits has begun!

The belly of the person marked by the ghost will swell rapidly as if blown up, then it will swell to the limit, a big hole will appear in the belly, and the person will be dead when he falls down.

There was no sign of this evil spirit law beforehand, and within a short moment, more than a dozen messengers died in the same way.

The remaining envoys fled in all directions like frightened birds.

Until a shrill scream was heard from the nunnery.

"That was the nun we brought with us to confuse the living dead just in case." Yu Ping panted twice and said in a trembling voice:
"These two people are not dead. They are hiding in the side rooms. When they were screaming, no one in our Demon Suppression Division died."

When Zhao Fusheng heard this, he guessed the truth:
"The ghost fetus was transferred into the stomachs of these two nuns?"

Yu Ping nodded.

He was already filled with fear when he mentioned this bizarre case. He forgot to flatter the man for a moment. Realizing that his attitude was inadequate, he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly added:
"Your Excellency is truly a master of foresight."

"That's enough." Zhao Fusheng frowned.

"Stop talking nonsense and finish your case."

"Yes." Yu Ping responded and said:
"We were lucky enough to survive. When we saw that the disaster had not spread, we gathered the brothers who had not fled and bravely followed the sound. We soon found the two nuns."

Zhong Yao also continued:
"One of them was pregnant."

"When we entered the nunnery, we found two nuns, both of whom were around 30 or 40 years old. They were not pregnant when they entered. The nun with a big belly must be carrying a ghost fetus." Yu Ping added.

Fortunately, two nuns were brought along that day, and they were able to temporarily stop the outbreak of the ghost disaster.

The accident that occurred in Guangci Temple this time caused the death of a ghost rider from the provincial government who controlled a very evil ghost, as well as more than 30 of his traveling emissaries and several runners.

Both Changping County and Xuzhou Demon Suppression Division suffered heavy losses.

At this point, the case is already very clear.

"What did you do after that?" Zhao Fusheng asked.

Yu Ping calmed down and said:

"The two nuns didn't die at the time, but they were terrified."

The nun who was pregnant with something evil was frightened to death at that moment.

According to another nun who was traveling with her, at the time of the incident, she and the nun who was marked by the evil spirit were hiding in a side room. They didn't know when black air began to roll in the room, and then they seemed to hear a baby crying.

When the crying sound died down, the two looked carefully and saw that the unfortunate nun's belly had grown bigger without them noticing.

The ghost found the source of possession and stopped killing people randomly.

"Afterwards, Ding Datong speculated that the ghost fetus was dormant at this time because the timing was wrong," said Yu Ping.

Fan Wujiu didn't understand the meaning of this, and couldn't help asking:

"What's wrong with the timing?"

Zhao Fusheng spoke:
"The timing of production."

She explained:

"As the saying goes, a pregnancy lasts ten months. From the time Huizhong got pregnant to now, the ghost case at Guangci Temple should not have lasted for a full month."

Yu Ping nodded:

"Ding Datong later checked the files and interrogated the other nuns in Guangci Temple. He asked for their confessions and was able to confirm that the initial source of the ghost disaster should have been seven and a half months before the incident."

Fan Wujiu now understood:
"What you mean is that the ghost case in Guangci Temple is actually only temporarily suspended, and the real outbreak will occur when the ghost fetus is born at full term?"

"Yes." Zhao Fusheng responded.

After she finished speaking, she asked Yu Ping:

"How long has it been since the Guangci Temple incident was settled?"

Yu Ping said:

"It's already November 24th." He mentioned the date with some reluctance:

"It happened to be early November when we went to Fengning County."

It took more than half a month from the time the nun from Guangci Temple reported the case to the time it was reported to the county demon-suppression bureau and then to the county government.

After the incident, Ding Datong did not dare to delay and sent someone to report it to the county government as soon as possible. The county government understood the severity of the incident and ordered the ghost driver to come. Several more days passed in between.

As a result, the case was discovered in early October, but it was not actually handled until a month later.

“It’s really inadequate.”

Zhao Fusheng shook his head.
