After hearing the scream, my heartbeat quickened. I thought this was unbelievable. How could a ghost catch a soul and make such a big noise? Could it be that the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demons personally killed the person? Impossible, because the underworld's control was also very strict. The ghost catchers were only responsible for catching souls and could not harm people. Moreover, there were day and night patrols, so they dared not do anything reckless.
So, they checked the time of death of this person according to the Book of Life and Death, and it happened to be that he was murdered, so his soul was taken away. This is the only explanation that makes sense.
"Brother Xi, from the sound of the screams it was a woman, could she be Boss Zheng's concubine?" Lu Fei asked anxiously. If this woman was really killed, the reward would be lost again.
I was also worried about this. The voice just now was indeed a woman's voice, but Boss Zheng's family also hired a female nanny, so I couldn't be sure whether it was his concubine. I just shook my head and didn't answer. I waited in the dark for another half a minute, and then I saw a female ghost with disheveled hair and covered in blood between the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Ghosts, floating out of the yard and walking back along the way I came, just passing the alley.
When they came closer and saw the appearance of the female ghost clearly, I was shocked and almost screamed, and quickly covered my mouth with my hands.
It turned out to be Boss Zheng's concubine. Although her hair covered most of her face, I could never have mistaken her charming appearance. How could such a rare beauty die like this? I felt bad. God was so unfair. Why didn't he let Boss Zheng die
I don't care about the loss of the reward, but I feel sorry for this woman. Although it is her fault to be a mistress, she did not harm anyone, but was harmed, which is worthy of sympathy. Nowadays, the world is going downhill, and it is more legitimate for rich men to keep mistresses than to have a relationship in the 1980s, and it is not surprising in the eyes of the world, and everyone is used to it. Their fate is the same as being a prostitute, they are all for survival, there is no right or wrong, the mistake is that rich men should not be unfaithful.
I am not saying this to justify the name of the mistress, but I think this is due to the changes in the world and the loss of morality. In fact, to be honest, how many women really want to be a mistress who is reviled by others? It's because of the pressure of life and the atmosphere!
Seeing the ghost woman walking through the alley, I felt sorry for her, but it was ridiculous for her to argue with the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demons. Why should I do that? For the reward
At this moment, another blue-faced ghost came lightly in front of him. He was also wearing a suit and looked like a civil servant from the underworld. He had a wide nose and a wide mouth, and stared with a pair of scary eyes, like a yaksha. He held a wooden sign in his hand with the two black words "Night Patrol" written on it.
My heart moved. Could this be the legendary night-wandering god
The Night Wandering God, along with the Black and White Impermanence and the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demon, is one of the ten great ghost generals in the underworld. He is responsible for patrolling the world at night. In fact, to put it bluntly, he is a group of small spies sent from the underworld to the world of the living. There are as many as sixteen of them. It is said that they are not very good ghosts. They specialize in collecting some private information of the human world and reporting it back. They are all full of bad intentions and are not good people.
"Hey, it's Brother Erba, where are you going to patrol?" The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Monster stopped and greeted him.
The 28 refers to the total number of night walkers, which is 16. 28 equals 16, which is a general term for night walkers. It seems that this little ghost is really a night walker. I wonder why they don't make them 24, but 38
