Zhou Lingyu, who was traveling with him, didn't want to wait any longer, so he dropped the Soul-Suppressing Nail and inserted it into the bottom of the red coffin. Suddenly, a strong black wind blew up in the coffin, and the body of the female ghost in wedding clothes twisted violently, gradually turning into a wisp of white smoke and being taken into the Soul-Devouring Pot.
His eyes were cold and indifferent: "Su Ziyun, you are so indecisive and yet you are trying to reason with the female ghost. Do you really want to help it enter reincarnation?"
Faced with this evil spirit that has harmed people, the generally accepted attitude of the 79th Bureau is: eliminate it immediately without hesitation.
"Captain Zhou, why are you so anxious? If you can convince the ghost girl to let Li Jie go, Li Jie can be treated. Even if he has to be punished, he shouldn't die in this way."
"You still have time to persuade the female ghost, but I don't! My sister Yuyan is still waiting for me to save her!"
Su Ziyun said angrily, "You, my dear brother, are not the only one who cares about Yuyan. I care about her too! But investigating a case requires a process. It's not about killing everyone and then finding a solution right away!"
Zhou Lingyu disagreed: "I don't care, your way of investigating cases is just a waste of time!"
"Why can't you trust my sister? I've already told you that Yuyan's life is not in danger."
"Humph, just because you trust Su Yao doesn't mean I will believe it too."
Su Yao said: "The female ghost entered your Soul Devouring Pot and her soul has been scattered. The clues to finding your sister were cut off by you."
"What did you say?!" Zhou Lingyu was stunned for a moment.
"Your sister's disappearance has nothing to do with the female ghost, but she must know something."
He looked questioningly, "How can you be sure that Yuyan's disappearance had nothing to do with her?"
She said, "Just because she doesn't have your sister's scent, she hasn't harmed your sister."
Zhou Lingyu was silent for a moment, then asked, "Can you feel where Yuyan is?"
Su Yao looked at the village chief, who was still slumped on the ground. "It's time to confess what you did with Taoist Jia."
"What's going on? Miss Su, don't talk nonsense!"
The village chief was obviously feeling guilty.
"Just as we have the ability to exorcise ghosts, we also have the ability to make you speak the truth. If you don't want to suffer, confess immediately!" Su Ziyun stepped on his shoulder.
The next second, Hei Dou, who had been hiding in the shadows, rushed out and said sternly, "Sister Su! I know what the village chief and Taoist Jia were doing!"
"Hei Dou! Stop talking nonsense and go back! This is not the place for you!" the village chief scolded.
Hatred filled Hei Dou's eyes: "You old thing, in order to make money from the villagers, you conspired with Taoist Jia to cheat us out of our money!"
"They said a female ghost would come and take the lives of the entire village, and asked every household to contribute 5,000 yuan to exorcise the ghost!"
"Some people in the village didn't believe it, so you and your brother bit some chickens and ducks to death and pretended they were killed by a female ghost. Your goal was to make the villagers believe the female ghost would harm others so you could cheat them out of their money!"
The village chief kept shaking his head and said, "I didn't... I really didn't! I, I did think about asking Taoist Jia to exorcise the ghost, but he couldn't even cure my son's 'illness', so how could I dare to ask the villagers for money to exorcise the ghost!"
"How dare you quibble! I saw you and your brother mauling those chickens and ducks to death with my own eyes!"
"I also saw you dividing the stolen money with Taoist Jia! If you still want to deny it, I will call all the villagers who paid the money to see if you admit it!"
Seeing that Hei Dou looked like he wanted him dead, the village chief seemed to understand the reason and stopped denying it. "Yes, when the red coffin suddenly appeared at the land temple, a villager happened to see it... I came up with this idea to make money, also to earn back the betrothal money for my son."
"Shameless!" Su Ziyun cursed and couldn't help but kick him.
The village chief fell to the ground and lost consciousness instantly.
"This... Sister, I didn't use much force!"
Su Ziyun was so scared that he hurried to check. After turning the village chief over, he saw black blood constantly flowing out of his mouth, and a fishy smell was wafting around.
Su Yao looked at Hei Dou and asked, "Hei Dou, if you kill the village chief and get caught, who will take care of your sister in the future?"
