Chapter 112 Metaphysics Live Broadcast + Raising a Child 36
After confirming the documents were correct, the police dispelled their doubts, but the suspicion in their hearts remained.
Seeing this colleague being so familiar with those Taoist priests, could it be that ghosts really exist in this world???
With this doubt in mind, the comrades from the Ministry of State Security asked their people and police dogs to come out of the villa. They saw her make some gesture and a yellow talisman in her hand suddenly burned. In the blink of an eye, a mist came and the villa in front of them had changed its appearance.
The villa was no longer brightly lit. It was pitch black inside, as thick as fog. The light from outside could not penetrate the villa, and a faint sound of unknown sobbing could be heard.
There was a dark shadow huddled beside the gate. The police were shocked by the scene that had overturned their worldview. Then they saw the national security comrade, who was as strong as an ox, raising his hand to lift the dark shadow over.
"Are there any family members present? Come over and identify them."
As they moved away from the darkness, the police saw that the black shadow was the property that had inexplicably disappeared before their eyes.
The property manager closed his eyes tightly, not daring to open them. His face was pale and he was waving his fists desperately, making threatening noises, as if telling someone not to come over.
Without giving it much thought, the police quickly reassured the property management: "We are the police. Don't worry, you are safe now."
Hearing the word "police," the property manager opened his eyes in confusion. Seeing the police, he burst into tears: "Wow, why did you come just now? I've been here all day and all night, and there are so many ghosts..."
"This kid is lucky."
"Who said it wasn't? I didn't really go in there, I just got a little scared. With so many ghosts around, I'm lucky not to see any blood."
The police were a little confused. It had only been more than two hours, so why did the other party say he had stayed for a day and a night?
"The speed of time flow in each ghost domain is different, some are fast and some are slow. The one in front of us is fast." Comrade Guoan said.
As she spoke, she opened a mineral water bottle and said, "There are quite a few ghosts in here. I can't handle them all by myself. Sprinkle this water on your weapons to damage the ghosts. Everyone, stay put. Make them gather in one place and don't let them leave. This Painted Skin Ghost is a bit tricky. The masters and I will think of a solution later."
Fearing the police might worry, she explained, "You are all righteous, so the demons' tricks won't work on you. Furthermore, the police badges we carry are connected to the nation's destiny, and can restrain demons. So, there's no need to worry about them harming you. Just treat them like living people and arrest them."
The police then realized why the property had disappeared before and there was nothing wrong with them. It turned out that the position of police allowed them not to be afraid of being harmed by ghosts. They didn't feel scared when they thought about it.
But...if ghosts are afraid of police badges, if we distribute police badges to the people, will it prevent ghosts from harming living people again?
As if reading the police officer's thoughts, the master who had been lecturing his disciples said, "It would be wonderful if the police badge alone could completely subdue ghosts. Ghosts are afraid of the badge, but it's only a psychological fear, you know? It's like a thief being afraid of the police. Harming a living person isn't difficult for them. What they truly fear is your righteous spirit. In other words, your evil spirit and your good deeds!"
He muttered, "If ghosts were really afraid of police badges, what would we do? We'd have gone to a factory to make screws!"
"I'm just an outsider, so it's normal for me not to understand these things, but you're so capable! You're so powerful, why did that ghost bride ask for help from Taoist Wang last time?"
"Oh, who would have thought that the ghost baby still had feelings for the mother who wanted to kill it?" the man argued.
"Look at you, you're stuck in a stereotype, aren't you? Ghosts are also transformed from living people. Human nature is always complex. Children will hate their parents who abused and killed them, but it's undeniable that some will still have feelings for them. In short, if you encounter such a situation in the future, be more careful!"
While people were chattering and helping out, the police on the other side were also prepared. They were even worried that something might happen to the police dogs and sprinkled water on them.
Police dogs are also their comrades-in-arms!
This villa is indeed very big, but the interior is actually larger than the original floor area!
There are many ghosts, but they also have many living people.
With everyone working together, they captured the ghosts one after another and found several people who had reported the case but had lost contact before.
Some of these ghosts still retain the tragic appearance they had before death, with missing arms and legs, and their heads half-open revealing the red and white brains inside. Most of them have purple faces, and it is obvious at a glance that they are not living people.
At first they wanted to pounce, but after feeling substantial damage, they were shocked and frightened and fled frantically. However, how could they hide from this group of specially trained police officers?
"How many ghosts are there in here? Who is your boss? Where are the others? If you resist, you will be punished severely; if you confess, you will be treated leniently. Tell us quickly!" The police didn't know if this trick would work on the ghosts, but they still wanted to know what the situation was like in here so that they could rescue them more easily. They suppressed their nausea and started the interrogation.
This ghost must have been in a car accident before his death. Half of the left side of his body was gone, and his brain was exposed. He looked disgusting and scary.
The reason why people are afraid of the dead is due to biology and instinctive reactions. The protective mechanism reminds people that a similar person has died in this place, so that the living stay away from danger.
Even police officers who are used to seeing all kinds of scenes will still feel physical discomfort when facing ghosts. It's just that their mental qualities have been trained and are relatively stronger than other ordinary people.
The car accident ghost was clueless: "I don't know either. I sensed something was going on here, so I ran over to join in the fun. As for who started it, how would a little ghost like me know? Even if you hit me again, I wouldn't know! Besides, you're police officers, you can't just beat us up! At most, we can scare these people and feed off their negative emotions, but we haven't hurt them. You can't hit me, it's against discipline!"
police:"……"
A ghost also has to follow discipline?
The other ghosts, fearing being beaten, all spoke up at once, "We really weren't lying! I felt the excitement just like it did, so I came over to take a look. You know, ghosts in our country love to watch the fun. Who knew watching the fun was illegal?"
"Although I don't know who the ghost who started the event is, if you want to find him, you can look deeper. The outer areas are full of little ghosts like us."
Just as the police were about to go deeper, the sky suddenly brightened.
Oh no, it was that the lights around suddenly lit up, the ghost zone was opened, and noisy footsteps were heard from upstairs.
Is this Painted Skin Ghost so arrogant?
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound warily as if they were facing a great enemy.
A handsome young man walked down from upstairs, followed by a series of people supporting each other.
These living people seemed to be frightened, their faces were pale, and there was fear in their eyes. They wanted to stick tightly to the young man in front of them. It was obvious that they were very dependent on him. Even the appearance of the police only made them happy for a moment, but they still did not leave the young man's side.
"Painted Skin Ghost?" the little disciple said strangely.
As soon as he finished speaking, his master knocked him on the head: "Painted skin ghost! Painted skin ghost! I let you! Painted skin ghost!"
The master's movements were rhythmic and full of rhythm: "I told you not to read the book properly! This is our colleague! Painted Skin, you idiot!"
The young disciple covered his head with tears in his eyes: "I was wrong, Master, please don't hit me!"
The master took a deep breath and looked at Xiao Yan calmly: "Fellow Daoist, where is the Painted Skin Ghost?"
Xiao Yan came in front of everyone and said, "Painted Skin Ghost? He's gone."
The master's eyes widened: "Run away? Where did he run to?"
Such a ferocious Painted Skin Ghost has appeared in the world, and who knows how many people it will harm! We must find it as soon as possible!
Xiao Yan blinked: "It didn't run away, I let it go."
Master: “???”
Master: “!!!”
"How could you let such a scourge go? Do you know how much harm the Painted Skin Ghost would cause to ordinary people once it leaves?"
The young monk chanted a Buddhist name: "I sense the breath of blood and new souls, there are quite a few of them."
Before Xiao Yan could say anything, the Liu family relative spoke with disgust on his face: "That's what they deserve!"
The other girls followed suit, saying, "They deserve this!"
Everyone looked at the rich second generation and their female companions in confusion, some suspected that these people had their minds bewitched by ghosts, but no matter how they looked at it, these people did not have any ghost energy on them, which meant that ghosts had not come into contact with them, and there was only a little bit of yin energy left because they stayed in the ghost realm.
These Yin energies are very thin, and will not cause harm to the human body as long as you get more sun exposure and maintain a regular schedule.
It is obvious that these people are not possessed by ghosts.
From the chatter of these people, everyone learned what had happened.
It turned out that several of them were second-generation rich people who had sexually assaulted and killed a passing girl a year ago. They used money to settle the case, leaving the family of the deceased unable to seek justice and forcing them to leave their hometown.
After the girl died, she turned into a ghost, and fortunately with the help of the Painted Skin Ghost, she was able to condense her soul.
Until today, the girl finally took revenge on the enemy who killed her, so all the rich second-generations who participated in the evil deeds are dead.
"The living have their own rules, and the dead have their own rules. Since ancient times, debts have been repaid, murders have been punished, and wronged souls are seeking revenge in accordance with the rules of the underworld. The laws of the living do not apply to them. Moreover, this ghost has not implicated any innocent people, so why should I keep it here?"
Logically, the police felt that there was nothing wrong with it, but legally speaking… bullshit! He was a dead person, how could the law apply to him?
I have to say that this result is quite good. These second-generation rich people are powerful and influential, and they don’t have to pay with their lives even if they go to jail. This is very unfair to the deceased and their families.
Comrade Guoan took out his phone and flipped through it. "Well, according to our country's laws on ghosts in the underworld, these ghosts haven't broken any rules."
She nodded at Xiao Yan: "You did nothing wrong."
The country has another set of laws for ghosts. They are all ghosts, and the underworld has its own rules. Even if the country's laws have constraints, they cannot interfere with the rules of heaven and earth.
It's common sense in the underworld for wronged souls to seek revenge, recognized by heaven and earth. The underworld doesn't believe in the notion that a crime isn't punishable by death. According to underworld rules, killing someone means paying with one's life! This doesn't apply to death row prisoners, of course. These individuals carry a lot of karma, and upon death, they're taken into custody by a special underworld agency. There's no time for them to collect their debts. This is the result of committing numerous evil deeds!
