Looking at Li Mao's sly expression, Zhao Youliang couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
"Xiao Li, even if the police come, how do you know it's a murder and not caused by something supernatural?"
Xiao Li was prepared for this question, or rather, he was just waiting for Zhao Youliang to ask him.
Upon hearing this, he immediately replied, "I put dust in my own eyes!"
"I smeared so much dust on it, it's so bad it hurts my eyes, but I still can't see any ghosts!"
Zhao Youliang sighed helplessly for a while after hearing this: "Li Mao, do you think it's possible that ghosts don't come out during the day, which is why you didn't see them?"
Li Mao was taken aback, and after a long while, he nodded gently: "That's true..."
Just as they were talking, police officer Xiao Zhao strode in.
Just as Li Mao said, he was indeed wearing plain clothes.
After Xiao Zhao came in, he plopped down on the stool without saying a word, panting heavily.
Judging from his expression, he wasn't tired, but rather nervous.
Seeing this, Zhao Youliang quickly poured a cup of hot water and handed it over.
"What's wrong, Brother Zhao? Don't rush, tell me slowly."
After a long while, Xiao Zhao finally spoke softly.
"Quantum, do you remember that figure we saw at the crematorium when we brought my colleague back last time?"
"The one dragging a sack along the roadside!"
"I remember, of course I remember!" Zhao Youliang answered without hesitation.
"I even joked: 'In the middle of the night, the sack must be filled with either people or RMB.'"
At this moment, Xiao Zhao was in no mood to appreciate Zhao Youliang's humor; in fact, his voice was trembling slightly.
"Quantum, I just saw that figure again, right at the crime scene!"
But apart from me, no one else can see it.
When I told my other colleagues, they thought I was joking!
"What!?" Hearing what Xiao Zhao said, Zhao Youliang finally took it seriously.
"Come on, let's go take a look!"
Just as Zhao Youliang was about to get up, he was pulled back by police officer Xiao Zhao.
"There's no need to go to Quantum; that figure only stayed for a short while before dragging the sack away."
"They also...they also put all of Old Joe's family's internal organs inside and took them with them."
"I swear that's exactly what I saw!"
"But...but when others saw it, their viscera, which had been pulled out, were still scattered on the ground!"
Police officer Xiao Zhao's words shocked Li Mao.
"Holy crap, Brother Zhao, are you serious?"
"Could it be something evil harming people again?"
"They even ripped out Old Joe's whole family's intestines?!"
Compared to Li Mao, Zhao Youliang has made significant progress after experiencing so much.
Instead of being dumbfounded, he started to analyze the situation while speaking.
"Brother Zhao, you didn't see it wrong, and neither did your colleague."
"If that figure was truly something evil, what he took away in the sack was his 'spirit and vitality,' while what he left behind at the scene was flesh."
"Sigh, we really never get any peace and quiet here!"
Hearing Zhao Youliang say that, Li Mao was "clearly unconvinced": "Quantum, I wiped the soot off the bottom of the pot and didn't see any dirt, so why can Brother Zhao see it?"
"Could it be that he, like you, has the ability to see ghosts!?"
Zhao Youliang slowly shook his head: "How could that be?"
"If Brother Zhao had the ability to see ghosts, he would have known long ago."
"Actually, the most common reason why ordinary people can see ghosts is that the ghost wants you to see them."
"And this often happens when evil spirits are demanding lives!"
After saying that, Zhao Youliang looked at the police officer Xiao Zhao with a worried expression.
Xiao Zhao was stunned for a moment, then pointed to his nose in disbelief: "Quantum, you're saying that the ghost dragging the sack wanted to harm me?"
"Yes!" Zhao Youliang nodded deeply.
"But Brother Zhao, you don't need to worry. As long as you do as I say, ordinary ghosts can't harm you."
Since it concerned his own life, police officer Xiao Zhao naturally nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, Quantum, you tell me, and I'll do as you say."
Zhao Youliang's method was extremely simple; he had learned it from the book that Manager Sun had given him recently.
If Xiao Zhao wants to be safe, he should not go home from now on, but stay in the police station, especially at night.
Because ghosts and evil spirits dare not approach state organs, especially violent institutions such as military regions and police stations.
The term "violent organs" mentioned above is not intended to be a malicious denigration or smear; it is simply the state's basic definition of these departments.
Besides the military and police, the organs of violence also include courts, prisons, and so on.
Aside from staying in the police station, Xiao Zhao should ideally wear his work uniform 24 hours a day.
In addition, one must have a righteous heart, which means not doing anything against one's conscience, let alone doing anything immoral or immoral.
The fact that the dirty guy dragging the sack dared to show up in front of Xiao Zhao today is largely due to the fact that all the police officers were wearing plainclothes.
If they were wearing police uniforms... haha!
"Okay! I've got what you said, Quantum!"
"I'll go back and switch shifts with my colleague right away. I'll take all the night shifts this month!"
"Alas, it's a pity that Master Mao Keng has disappeared. If he were still here, Quantum and you would definitely be able to catch the evil spirit."
After Officer Zhao left, Zhao Youliang, still worried, made a special trip to Old Qiao's house.
All I could see was that the gate was tightly closed and sealed with a tape.
Upon seeing the seal, a series of images suddenly flashed through Zhao Youliang's mind, all of which were things taught to him by the old man in his dream.
After a moment of stunned silence, Zhao Youliang subconsciously asked Li Mao to buy a stack of yellow paper, and then used the ink line he carried with him to draw on the yellow paper.
He drew a "ghost-suppressing talisman" that the old man in his dream taught him.
While drawing, Zhao Youliang chanted incantations, accompanied by a single-handed hand seal.
"The Three Pure Ones above reflect the mind below, heaven is clear and earth is spiritual. The second stroke reveals the ancestral master, invoking the heavenly gods and mobilizing the heavenly soldiers. The third stroke makes the evil gods retreat, what ghost dares to witness, what evil spirit dares to face."
"The laws governing the round heaven and square earth are in nine chapters; I now begin to write, and all ghosts will be subdued!"
"Hurry, hurry, as the law commands!"
As he finished chanting the incantation, Zhao Youliang also drew the final stroke.
He then instructed Li Mao to paste the newly drawn talisman on the front door of the Qiao family's house.
"Quantum, you're getting more and more mystical! You can even draw talismans now?!"
When can you teach me?
Zhao Youliang dared not easily agree to Li Mao's request.
Because he vaguely remembered that when the old man in his dream was "teaching" him, he said, "The Way should not be lightly passed on."
Besides, I'm not even a half-baked expert these days, so how can I be qualified to teach others?
Although that's what he thought, Zhao Youliang joked with Li Mao.
"Want to learn? Sure! With our relationship, would I refuse to teach you?!"
“Starting tomorrow, you will come with me to the coffin shop every day and help me make coffins.”
"When you've made five hundred coffins, you'll naturally be able to draw talismans!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mao looked on with suspicion: "Really? You're not lying to me, are you?"
"You want me to work for you for free and make coffins for you to sell for money, right?!"
