"Zhou Ruohua, let's go." In the bedroom of Yan Daoqing and Zhou Ruohua in the backyard of Yan Mansion, Yanzhou Prefecture.
A gust of cold wind blew, and two soul-catching ghost officials appeared in front of Zhou Ruohua.
Zhou Ruohua was a little confused. She looked at the two ghost messengers in front of her and asked, "Who are you? Why are you in my room?"
"Could it be a thief?" Zhou Ruohua was startled and quickly turned around and called out to her husband Yan Daoqing, "Husband, husband..."
Zhou Ruhua just screamed when she suddenly saw a woman lying next to her husband Yan Daoqing. But she was stunned for a moment and found that the woman... was herself?
"This..." Zhou Ruohua looked at the 'self' lying next to Yan Daoqing, whose face was gradually turning pale. She reached out and touched her cheeks and body. Something was wrong... She was Zhou Ruohua, so who was that on the bed?
Just as Zhou Ruhua was stunned, a cold and eerie chain suddenly fell on her body, and a huge force surged from the chain, instantly pulling her in front of the two ghost officials.
"Zhou Ruohua, your time has come. We are here to capture your soul in compliance with the order of King Qin Guang." said the ghost messenger on the left.
Zhou Ruohua was shocked when she heard this, and then turned around to look at the two ghost officials. Sure enough, after a closer look, she found that the two ghost officials in front of her were dressed exactly the same as those in the temple.
A trace of fear flashed in Zhou Ruhua's eyes, and then she suddenly shouted at Yan Daoqing who was sleeping soundly on the bed: "Husband! Save me! Husband! Save me!"
However, Yan Daoqing could not hear her voice at all. Instead, the two ghost officials beside her frowned. Then the ghost official on the right raised the ghost-beating stick in his hand and hit Zhou Ruhua's soul three times.
Zhou Ruohua suddenly felt excruciating pain and screamed heartbreakingly.
Afterwards, Zhou Ruohua was forcibly dragged out of Yan Mansion by two ghost officials and headed all the way to the City God Temple in Yanzhou Prefecture.
Because there are City God Temples and Land God Temples in the city, and generally Land God Temples are attached to City God Temples, so it makes no difference whether the soul-catching ghost in the big city goes to the Land God Temple or the City God Temple.
Zhou Ruhua cried all the way, but she found that no one in the mansion or on the street could see her or hear her voice.
It is now the hour of Hai, and there is still an hour until the hour of Zi, but the city of Yanzhou is still as brightly lit as during the day and bustling with people.
The Tang Dynasty did not implement a curfew, so even late at night, the streets were still crowded with people.
Zhou Ruohua was taken all the way to the outside of the City God Temple in Yanzhou Prefecture. Suddenly, she turned her head and saw a middle-aged couple passing by not far away.
Zhou Ruohua hurriedly called out because she knew the middle-aged couple, they were Zheng Li and his wife. Zheng Li was the chief clerk of the prison department of Yanzhou Prefecture, and was also acquainted with her father-in-law, the military captain Yan Xiumin. He was often invited to Yan's house with other officials.
Attending the banquet, so Zhou Ruohua also knew him.
"Master Zheng! Master Zheng!" Zhou Ruohua shouted anxiously.
Zheng Li also stopped and began to look around with his head raised.
Zheng Li's wife was very puzzled and asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"
Zheng Li said, "I seemed to hear someone calling me."
"No..." Zheng Li's wife looked around blankly, then confirmed again: "No one called you."
But Zhou Ruohua's voice became more and more urgent and louder. Zheng Li took a few steps forward and finally saw Zhou Ruohua under the dim light outside the City God Temple.
He squinted his eyes and finally saw Zhou Ruohua's face clearly. "That looks like the daughter-in-law of Captain Yan, the military commander... Wait, she's been kidnapped!"
After saying this, Zheng Li hurriedly shouted, "Catch the thief, catch the thief!"
While shouting, Zheng Li ran quickly towards the City God Temple, because Zhou Ruohua had been dragged into the City God Temple by two ghost officials.
Zheng Li's shouting immediately alarmed everyone on the street. After they reacted, they immediately ran over to follow Zheng Li.
"What's going on? Who are these thieves?" A young man ran very fast and soon caught up with Zheng Li and asked.
Zheng Li pointed to the City God Temple and said, "I saw someone kidnap a woman and enter the City God Temple."
"What!" The young man was furious when he heard this. "Is there such a thing?"
After saying this, the young man immediately shouted around: "Help, help, there are human traffickers, the human traffickers are kidnapping people!"
This shout immediately alarmed the neighbors in three streets and four directions. In an instant, hundreds of men and women, young and old, holding various weapons surrounded the City God Temple.
As for Zheng Li...people can't find Zheng Li now, because he has followed the two ghost officials to the front of the dark fog.
The moment Zheng Li saw the dark fog, he felt a sense of familiarity, but he still stood in front of the dark fog and blocked the way of the two ghost officials.
"Stop! How dare you kidnap decent women!" Zheng Li shouted at the two ghost officials.
The two ghost officials were startled, then looked at Zheng Li in disbelief. Then they revealed an expression as if they had seen a ghost, "Can you see us?"
"I'm not blind, how can I not see you?" Zheng Li shouted harshly.
The two ghost officials did not dare to be careless and immediately used their magic power. The dark fog spread out in an instant and enveloped Zheng Li in an instant.
Now, the mortals outside could no longer see Zheng Li.
"Sir Zheng, I am Zhou Ruhua, the wife of Yan Daoqing. Sir Zheng, please save me." Zhou Ruhua found that Zheng Li could see her and the ghost, and infinite hope suddenly surged in her heart, and she hurriedly shouted to Zheng Li.
