"Brother Kong, I came to ask you for help!"

Kong Hanan didn't understand, so Zeng Wu explained it to him.

It turned out that the previous county lieutenant was frightened out of his wits by Li San and his gang. Although he was awake now, he was still dazed and stupid.

This incident was ordered by the county magistrate and happened in the middle of the night to the county lieutenant. It involved the mistakes of the superiors and the manipulation of the ghosts and gods. No one could say much, so the family knew very little about why the county lieutenant had an accident.

The pressure fell on the new county lieutenant Zeng Wu.

Being able to become a county lieutenant, his family still has some influence in the local area. Kong Hanan did not leave the house for the past two days and did not know that Helue Town was full of rumors that Zeng Wu murdered the old county lieutenant in order to get promoted and make money.

This is a small matter. Kong Hanan recruited Li Mihai, but Li Mihai was also puzzled.

"It's just a shock. His soul should have returned to his body, right?"

Zeng Wu smiled bitterly. The demons under Brother Kong were very powerful, so he couldn't say anything. But the fact was that the old county lieutenant had not yet come back to life. The pressure from public opinion and the disturbance caused by his family members made him feel very uncomfortable.

Yan Changan, who was standing by, whispered, "Was it sucked away by the nearby ghost nest?"

Ever since Hou Tu fell asleep, the dead souls have been in chaos. The Emperor Dongyue was very casual and didn't take much care of it. So hundreds of ghosts roamed the world at night, and a very key point among them was the ghost nest.

Yinfeng Mountain is a high-level ghost nest with its own maze, and is a product of heaven and earth.

But there are also many acquired ones, and the generation method is also very simple.

A ghost with a cultivation level higher than that of a demon occupies a place with dense yin energy, releasing dark and fierce energy to pollute the land. Within one or two years, the land will become a ghost nest.

The ghost nest is a place with strong yin energy and is nourished by ghost energy. It can significantly improve the cultivation speed of ghosts and ghost cultivators, and it is easy to attract wandering souls nearby.

The birth of a ghost nest will also cause harm to the people in nearby towns. After all, ghosts need to devour living beings. At the same time, some ghost cultivators use ** to deliberately harm people to create wronged souls, or capture ghosts in the wild and give birth to resentful spirits in the ghost nest.

What Bai Wuchang said makes sense. The wandering soul of the old county lieutenant was most likely attracted to the ghost nest or captured by a ghost cultivator.

The reason why each county and prefecture has a temple or a national temple is also due to this. People like Chen Daoshou are responsible for assisting the government in defending the territory, and every once in a while, each county will have a monk in the God Transformation Stage lead a team to conduct regular sweeps.

However, this kind of sweep is actually not very effective. At most, it can only temporarily dampen the arrogance of the ghosts. Although the ghosts and ghost cultivators are not very powerful, they have many means. At worst, they can just move to another place to rebuild the ghost nest.

After learning this, Kong Hanan's eyes lit up.

They can't do it, but we can!

Kong Hanan said to Zeng Wu, "This matter was caused by us. We will not put it in any difficult position. Don't worry. Starting tonight, I will lead the team to clean out the ghost nest near Helue Town."

After giving the order, the Li Geng clan's ghost messengers scattered in all directions to gather information.

Zeng Wu bowed and said, "Then I'll leave it to Brother Kong."

After they finished breakfast together, Kong Hanan and Zeng Wu went out together.

Having just learned the skill of making talismans, he was itching to make more talismans and planned to go out and buy some materials.

Although he was short of money, the materials for talisman paper, a disposable consumable, were not expensive, so Kong Hanan gritted his teeth and prepared to buy some.

I have to urge Xiaobai to sort out his property as soon as possible. Why hasn’t he sorted it out after so long?

As luck would have it, not long after the two separated, two more waves of guests came to Kong Hanan's house.

A monster with blue skin, red hair and red eyes, about two meters tall, carrying a steel fork and a large package, appeared at the door of Kong Hanan's mansion.

It is the Yaksha clan, the earth-walking Yaksha, and the heir of Yaki.

Before he knocked on the door, he heard someone coming behind him.

"Excuse me, is Mr. Kong at home?"

Turning around, I saw a man riding a tall horse, fully armored.

Based on Ye Qisi's many years of experience in cannibalism, this man must be a general. Even if he is not a general, his status is not far off!

The clan mother once said that Kong Hanan had extraordinary abilities. Now it seems that what she said is true. Although he lives in a shabby house, the person who comes to visit him is actually a general?

Since you are here to see your future master, you have to be polite.

Ye Qisi tried his best to imitate human behavior, cupped his hands and said, "I don't know either. I came here to seek refuge with Mr. Kong."

Upon hearing this, the general was amazed again.

This general is still Xu Meng.

Today is the day when the team will break camp and return. After arranging the work, he did not take off his armor or saddle his horse, and specially visited Kong Hanan before the team set off. In the past, when he encountered monsters, he would have drawn his sword and charged forward, but this time, when he appeared at the door of Kong Hanan's house, he endured it.

I didn't expect that Mr. Kong is so famous that some demons would come to him on their own initiative. Judging from the way they salute him, he seems to have been educated!

"Squeak~"

The old wooden door opened, and Li Mihai, who had sensed the noise, asked Ma Mian and Bai Wuchang to come out and greet them.

Finally, the demons arrived. Ma Mian was so excited that tears filled his eyes. Although he was a little confused as to why it was a ground-walking yaksha, he still pulled him in.

As for Xu Meng...

Yan Changan stood in front of the door with a smile: "I'm really sorry, my husband is planning to clean up the ghost nest near Helue Town recently. He has gone out and will not be back in the short term."

After saying that, he closed the door.

A captain is a high-ranking official, comparable to a general. Yan Changan may not have seen such a high-ranking official when he was alive.

But so what? Our master will surely be the overlord of the underworld in the future. Why should he have to obey such a person in the world of the living?

Don't be fooled by his usual smiling face and clever appearance, he still holds a grudge. He believes that the person who came to capture Kong Hanan that night must have been arranged by this corrupt official.

Xu Meng sighed as he looked at the gate: "How many forces does Mr. Kong have under his command? How come there is another Ghost King?"

The more he couldn't get it, the more he wanted it. He became even more determined to visit Mr. Kong again.
