Modern Little Town God

Ding Hai's request was very abrupt, but after Ruan Jiao heard it, he probably guessed why he kept silent before.Probably, he knew that ghost, and he didn't want anything to happen to that ghost.

Ruan Jiao murmured, "You are staring at Miss Lu, is it because you are guarding the substitute for that ghost?" After finishing speaking, he vetoed, "No, from what you said, I can see that you care about Lu very much. Miss Lu, I don't want her to die either. Then, you followed her to protect Miss Lu, and it was another ghost that really wanted to kill Miss Lu... But you don't want that ghost to have an accident, is that ghost a dead ghost? She had to find a substitute, and she chose Miss Lu, right? You sympathized with that ghost's death in vain, but you didn't want anything to happen to Miss Lu, so your behavior is full of contradictions, right?"

Listening to Ruan Jiao's words, Ding Hai unconsciously raised his head again.

Lu Zixuan still didn't dare to look directly at his face, but because of Ruan Jiao's speculation, it seemed that she was no longer so afraid of Ding Hai.

Ruan Jiao's tone softened a lot, and said, "I didn't guess wrong, did I?"

In fact, if Ding Hai didn't see any crimes in his body and knew that he hadn't killed anyone, he wouldn't be in the mood to tell him so much.

Ding Hai was silent for a while.

"……Um."

Lu Zixuan was very surprised: "Then..." She suddenly didn't know how to express her feelings, and finally just said, "Ding Hai, tell me what happened. You can't make me confused of—I nearly died several times."

Ding Hai lowered his eyes and finally spoke slowly.

·

Ding Hai and Lu Zixuan were classmates in high school, not in the same class. He fell in love with Lu Zixuan at first sight at the time, and had the feeling of a young boy who had just started his love.However, Lu Zixuan was an excellent student, and he was a poor student. He often stayed outside with the gangsters, and his status was quite high. It can be said that the two are very different and have no intersection.Later Ding Hai was found out about his intentions, and as soon as the "brothers" encouraged him, he became tempted and wanted to follow Lu Zixuan and "protect" her home, so as to attract her attention.

The next thing is that another group of gangsters also fell in love with Lu Zixuan, and Ding Hai was young and enthusiastic to fight with others to "rob women", almost because he was young and innocent, and he didn't know that he would cause a lot of trouble to others.Ding Hai won. He thought that he was handsome and heroic, and Lu Zixuan would definitely be moved by him. As long as he protected her for a while longer, she would be his girlfriend... But the fact is that Lu Zixuan called the police. Both gangsters were taken there for education, and they were ordered not to harass girls.

Ding Hai was very disappointed, and also complained about Lu Zixuan, thinking that she "doesn't know how to flatter her", but since then he has been watched closely by his family, and he didn't dare to do anything more, and was also ordered to cut off contact with some younger brothers.After that, he still didn't get into university, and he didn't want to study any more, so he just went out to work.He is also willing to work hard, and he has gradually become a little bit promising, and he has matured a lot.

During this period, Ding Hai sometimes talked with his co-workers about his youth, and gradually realized that what he did was wrong. When he thought of Lu Zixuan, her beautiful face and outstanding temperament, he was more left Not much more than a trace of throbbing.After all, Lu Zixuan was her first love. He remembered and thought that maybe one day they would meet again. He would apologize properly, bid farewell to this first love, and wish her happiness.

It's a pity that Ding Hai had just received his salary and wanted to mail it back to his family when he was hit and killed by a drunk driving dude.He is still young and still has many plans for the future. Of course he is not reconciled. He is also worried about his parents who worried about him in the past and finally let him mature, and worry that they will have nowhere to depend on in the future.

Later, the person who caused the accident gave his parents enough compensation, and Ding Hai's resentment dissipated. Compared with revenge, he hoped that his parents could spend the rest of their lives safely.

It's just that his parents have settled down, but Ding Hai is still unwilling to die, and unknowingly missed the gate of ghosts, and began to wander in the imperial capital.Seeing the prosperity of the imperial capital, and remembering that he hadn't lived enough in this life, his obsession deepened.And because of the ghost's wandering, he also saw some things under the glamorous surface in the imperial capital.

Once, Ding Hai saw a woman swallowed sleeping pills and died. After she died, a greasy fat man came over the first time. He was not afraid after seeing the woman's body. After she was completely dead, they actually dismembered her body, stuffed it firmly into a big bag, packed it in a big box, and took her away.

Ding Hai was frightened. He felt that the fat man's series of movements were too skillful, so he followed him unconsciously.The fat man took the corpse to the wild mountains around the imperial capital. After roughly burning it in a hidden cave, he picked up the remains and threw them into the pool under the cliff.

That female ghost full of resentment was witnessed by Ding Hai emerging from the charred corpse.

The resentment grew stronger and stronger, and then slowly crawled out of that pool of water...

Ding Hai originally wanted to communicate with the female ghost, but found that the female ghost had lost her sanity. On the day of the female ghost's first seven days, when Ding Hai was not paying attention, she rushed to the distance quickly.Because the ghost will seek revenge on the night of returning to the soul, and the ghost that night was the most ferocious, Ding Hai thought that the female ghost sought revenge from someone, and he guessed that it might have something to do with the fat man, after all, in the few words that the fat man said He mentioned things like ignorance of good and bad, causing trouble for him, but unfortunately, after he went to find the fat man, he found that the fat man was fine, and there was no sign of a ghost, which made him lose the clue of the female ghost.

When Ding Hai saw the female ghost again, the female ghost was standing across the street, staring at a beautiful girl, and Ding Hai also recognized that the girl was Lu Zixuan.

Ding Hai didn't know why the female ghost was staring at Lu Zixuan, but he could see that the female ghost's resentment had not dissipated, and the resentment was not aimed at Lu Zixuan, but the female ghost really wanted Lu Zixuan's life.Gradually, Ding Hai realized that the female ghost wanted Lu Zixuan as a substitute.

After all, Lu Zixuan was Ding Hai's regret and the only girl he ever liked in his life. Of course, he couldn't let the female ghost harm her. In order to stop the female ghost, he could only follow Lu Zixuan day and night.

Therefore, when Lu Zixuan found out that someone was staring at her and following her, it was because of Ding Hai and the female ghost, but it was the female ghost who wanted to harm her, and Ding Hai wanted to protect her.

Lu Zixuan's nightmares every night were not real dreams, but the female ghost wrapped her neck with resentment, and the ghost energy interfered with her nerves, making her think she was dreaming.In fact, the female ghost really came to kill her. Whenever the female ghost wanted to strangle her, it was Ding Hai who rushed over to block the female ghost so that she could not hurt Lu Zixuan.

Because Lu Zixuan's perception was intermittent, when she saw Ding Hai rushing towards her, she thought it was Ding Hai who was trying to harm her. In fact, the ghost crying she heard was the ghost crying that weakened her will. It comes from the female ghost, the large blood red is an illusion caused by the female ghost's strong resentment, and the blood that emerges from the ghost's body after Ding Hai consumes too much...

·

Ding Hai said solemnly: "I don't know that female ghost, but I can probably see that something bad happened to her, and she committed suicide because she had no desire to live. She still has grievances after the first seven days. , it must be that the grudge was not repaid, and he missed the gate of hell, and the dead ghost who committed suicide like her had to find a substitute to reincarnate. Although the reason for staring at Lu... classmate is unknown, it should be an instinct. I didn’t say it just now , because I am worried that a Xuanmen celestial master like you who has the ability to recruit ghosts will think she is too vicious and want to break her up."

Ruan Jiao suddenly realized.

This Ding Hai watched the female ghost commit suicide, watched her being burned and thrown away, watched her turn into a ghost, and watched her revenge failed, so of course he sympathized with her and felt that she was too miserable.It was only later that I heard that he didn't care about Lu Zixuan, and that he wanted to take away Ding Hai who could protect Lu Zixuan. After weighing it, he finally confessed.

After all, to Ding Hai, Lu Zixuan is both innocent and more important.It's just that Ding Hai still tried his best to hope that Ruan Jiao would not be cruel, deliberately describing so many female ghosts, and probably also wanted to express the pity of the female ghosts.

Lu Zixuan had a complicated expression after listening.

For a moment, she felt that she should be grateful to Ding Hai, because he has been protecting her, and for a moment, she was a little bit resentful, thinking that the female ghost was pitiful, but she, who was targeted as a substitute for no reason, couldn't be pitiful?But at the same time, she can indeed understand some of Ding Hai's feelings, after all, the female ghost is really miserable...

Ding Hai said to Lu Zixuan, "I'm sorry about that incident a long time ago." He added sullenly, "I'm also sorry about the matter of hiding the ghost from the female ghost."

Lu Zixuan didn't know what to say, but she was no longer afraid of Ding Hai.

After hesitating for a while, she shook her head and said, "You have saved me several times, and I should thank you."

After all, no one deserves to protect anyone.

When Ding Hai made trouble for her back then, she also sent him to the bureau for education. In terms of behavior, he did not owe each other. In fact, Ding Hai still has a heart for her.This kind of intention made Ding Hai remember her and protect her after his death. This is all kindness.As for his sympathy for that female ghost... this actually shows that Ding Hai's heart is very soft, doesn't it?Otherwise, even if he still has feelings for her, he can wait for the female ghost to kill her, and then come to see her as a substitute, right?Anyway, she wouldn't know that he had been watching her die.

Compared to waiting for her to die, Ding Hai would rather let her live, even if she didn't even know that it was Ding Hai who saved her... Lu Zixuan is not a white-eyed wolf, she understands the preciousness of this kindness.

Ding Hai was taken aback when he heard Lu Zixuan's words.

When he was young, he was self-righteous in protecting her, but now he finally protected her for once. Originally, this was something he kept in his heart... But now he suddenly felt that the first love he had been thinking about for so many years was this... Girl, it's worth it.

Ruan Jiao waited for this person and ghost to communicate, and after they finished communicating, he said, "Then Miss Lu, what do you think now?"

Lu Zixuan was startled: "What do you think?"

Ruan Jiao said, "That female ghost."

Lu Zixuan whispered, "I don't want to be a stand-in."

Ruan Jiao nodded and said, "Of course. I mean, what do you want to do with that female ghost after you find it?"

Lu Zixuan's gaze flickered slightly.

"I want to know what happened to her." She said hesitantly, "and I want to know if she killed innocent people besides focusing on me. If not, then I... maybe I can forgive her .”

Ruan Jiao smiled: "Let's find her first." Then, he looked at Ding Hai, "You have been protecting Miss Lu for a while, can you find the whereabouts of that female ghost? Also, yesterday you suddenly disappeared , why? Why isn't the female ghost here?"

Ding Hai didn't hesitate this time, but said directly: "The female ghost has been following classmate Lu these days, and I have been following her to stop her. But probably because I have been around, the female ghost only appeared occasionally during the day, and at night Her strength has increased greatly, and her hands are faster. She didn't come during the day, I saw that Lu had invited the master, so I left temporarily to avoid being misunderstood. At night, I felt a panic in the distance In the community, I thought that the master invited by classmate Lu might have real skills, so I didn't dare to show up. As for the female ghost... I think it may be because the master just recruited ghosts, and she was also intimidated." Speaking of this, He thought for a while, "I don't know the whereabouts of the female ghost. She moves so fast that I can't keep up. But I left her ghostly aura to prevent myself from missing her tracks. I don't know if this is useful. If this doesn't work, I can take you to the place where the female ghost lived, and maybe I can find a way to get some of the things she used."

Lu Zixuan immediately looked at Ruan Jiao——Can the ghost spirit work?

Ruan Jiao smiled and said, "It's okay to be ghostly."

Other Taoist priests may need more things from the female ghost's life, but he is different, the city god can track ghost energy, and it is more convenient to find ghosts.

After hearing this, Ding Hai carefully squeezed out a trace of ghostly aura from his ghost body pocket, but when he handed it out, he was a little entangled and didn't know how the other party would answer it.

But this was not a problem for Ruan Jiao, he reached out and grabbed the ghost energy.

Ding Hai: "?!"

Ruan Jiao said, "I will cast a spell later, Miss Lu, please go out first."

Lu Zixuan was a little puzzled: "...Is there any hindrance from me?"

Ruan Jiao looked at her and replied: "It's my secret method. It's okay if ghosts know it, but it's not good if people know it. Miss Lu, I will first close the yin and yang eyes for you, and wait until you find the female ghost. It depends on the situation to decide whether to reopen it for you."

Although Lu Zixuan is no longer afraid of Ding Hai, it is not because she has a big heart, but Ding Hai himself made her barely ignore his terrifying appearance, and more ghosts... In fact, she doesn't really want to look again.

So, she only paused for a moment, then nodded.

"I'm outside...are you okay?"

Ruan Jiao pointed to her eyes and said, "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be fine."

Lu Zixuan let out a breath slowly, and Ding Hai could no longer be seen, but her fear of the unknown was much less in her heart.

"Then I'm going out," she said, and then opened the door and sat in front of her house.

In the room, Ruan Jiao looked at Ding Hai.

Ding Hai suddenly felt that the current master seemed to be very different from the previous master, which made him feel a sense of awe from the bottom of his heart.

Ruan Jiao didn't say much, just sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.

Ding Hai was a little puzzled, but in the next second, he saw a young man wearing a red official uniform and a two-winged official hat walking out of that body, with a blue ghost face on his face and blue ghost claws on his hands.

"City, City God?" He instinctively knew the other party's identity.

Ruan Jiao nodded slightly.

Ding Hai hastily bowed down to salute——he finally understood why he couldn't resist the power of summoning. It was not an ordinary Taoist priest summoning ghosts, but a real god summoning the ghosts in the jurisdiction!

Ruan Jiao said: "It is more accurate to use the city god's seal to track the ghosts with ghost aura, so I have to manifest the god body and leave the body. Now I use the yang world body to walk in the world, you must not reveal my identity to others and other ghosts."

Of course Ding Hai quickly agreed, but he didn't quite understand why he was not allowed to stay away.

Ruan Jiao saw his doubts and said, "Even if you hide it now, you will have to testify and know my identity when you find the female ghost and interrogate her. In addition, I also want to ask you, are you responsible for Lu Zixuan and Li Gui?" Fighting, the ghost energy in your body has dissipated a lot, and the original unwillingness has also eased a lot. After this incident, do you still want to enter the gate of ghosts and reincarnate?"

Ding Hai was stunned: "I, I missed the ghost gate, can I still go to reincarnation?"

Ruan Jiao smiled: "If I allow, of course I can."

Ding Hai took a deep breath of ghostly breath, and said gratefully: "Then thank you, City God. After the matter with that female ghost is over, I am willing to reincarnate, thank you."

Ruan Jiao said, "You don't need to be too polite."

In fact, Ruan Jiao also thought about whether to let Ding Hai be a ghost messenger - after all, his character is not bad, although the judge still can't do it, but black and white can be impermanent.However, the ghost messenger must be a ghost who is attached to the world. After he proposed reincarnation, Ding Hai was already very willing, so there is no need to force it.

After that, Ruan Jiao didn't talk too much, and first blew the ghost energy forward, and then took out the city god's seal, and injected his own divine power.

He still remembers doing this before. At that time, he was also chasing ghosts. He believed in krypton in the City God's Seal, and the City God's Seal would start working naturally. But this time the experience was very different. He could clearly feel that he had inspired him with divine power City God Seal, let the City God Seal recognize the ghost aura, and emit divine light, and the ghost aura will fly forward quickly.

Ruan Jiao put away the City God's seal and pointed her finger towards the divine light.

Shen Guang stopped temporarily with a ghostly air.

Ruan Jiao returned to his body, stood up and moved a little bit, then with a little divine light, he opened the door and led Ding Hai out.

·

When Lu Zixuan heard the door ring, she turned her head suddenly, and saw the door was opened, and the very effective classmate Ruan came out.Her gaze unconsciously looked to both sides, but she didn't see Ding Hai.

Ding Hai also knew that Lu Zixuan could no longer see him, so he walked silently to her left.

Ruan Jiao said to Lu Zixuan: "The spell is successful. Ding Hai and I will go over immediately. Miss Lu, are you waiting at home...or come with us?"

Lu Zixuan hesitated.

Ruan Jiao smiled and said, "Whether you go or stay, you will be safe."

Lu Zixuan exhaled fiercely, and said, "I'll go with you. I never want to encounter such a thing again, but this time I want to understand thoroughly. The substitute is not chosen randomly, right? Besides... She said with the greatest courage in her life, "I don't want to have any chances. Since she used me as a substitute, I followed. It will be easier to find her, right?"

Ruan Jiao nodded and said, "Miss Lu, you are very courageous. Let's go together."

Next, he didn't open Lu Zixuan's yin and yang eyes, but stood on Lu Zixuan's right side.

Ruan Jiao flicked the divine light, and the divine light flew straight out of the community.

Because of the control, its speed is not fast, just enough for two people and one ghost to keep up...

·

Outside the community, two towering figures stood upright under the tree.

Ding Hai blurted out: "Ox head horse noodles?"

After speaking, he couldn't help but look at Ruan Jiao.

Ruan Jiao nodded to him, and signaled to Li Sanniang and Qin Su to follow.

Don't look at him not doing business until ten o'clock tonight, but just after he came to Lu Zixuan's house, he has already ordered the bull head and horse face to guard outside the community - once a ghost appears here, the two ghosts will be caught and questioned.

But since the bull head and horse face never went in to report, that is to say, no ghosts were seen here tonight.

Following the direction of the divine light, the bull head and horse face strode ahead to open the way.

Because Ruan Jiao was in his own shell, he restrained his divine light, which didn't make Ding Hai feel too depressed, but the ghosts and gods in front of him brought him a lot of pressure.

Ding Hai tried his best to adapt himself. Ruan Jiao sensed his discomfort and drew a small symbol on his arm with divine power, which made him relax a lot and floated more briskly.

When reaching the gate of the community, Ruan Jiao stopped suddenly and said to Lu Zixuan, "I almost forgot, we can't slow down, first draw two magic amulets for you."

Lu Zixuan: "God's Talisman?"

Ruan Jiao pointed to Lu Zixuan's calf, drew a rune in a vague manner, and said, "Okay."

Lu Zixuan looked down: "Okay?"

Ruan Jiao didn't say much, just smiled and said, "Let's go and see."

Lu Zixuan walked away, and once she walked, she noticed the difference.

In the past, when she walked down-to-earth, even wearing flat heels, she couldn't go anywhere fast, but this time when she lifted her foot, she felt as light as a swallow, and her footsteps seemed uncontrollable, leading her forward quickly without touching the ground.

In the blink of an eye, it seems that you have already walked half a street?

Lu Zixuan is fast, and ghosts and gods are certainly not slow.

Shen Guang's speed was getting faster and faster, Ruan Jiao used his divine power to cover himself and Lu Zixuan, and quickly walked around two streets.

There are many residential buildings in a not-so-wide street. This street is relatively old and relatively old. Most of the people living here are from the north, and most of them are rented houses.

Ding Hai felt strong resentment in a building, and whispered: "So it's here."

The place where the female ghost committed suicide.
