A black figure floated by the skylight on the second floor. With the moonlight outside, they could see clearly inside.
Lu Lingfeng widened his eyes and looked at Zhou Hao. The room was now pitch black.
He thought Zhou Hao could not see his expression, but in fact Zhou Hao could see clearly, and his face was full of horror.
Zhou Hao knew that it was not a ghost, so he jumped and came to the second floor.
I quickly pushed open the skylight and came to the roof, which was empty.
Only a gray tabby cat jumped out.
Zhou Hao was not sure just now that he was seeing a figure, but he was definitely not a ghost.
The two returned to the yard.
Lu Lingfeng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brother Qingxu, what did you find just now?"
Zhou Hao shook his head: "I saw nothing. Brother Lu don't worry, there are no ghosts in this yard. Maybe someone is using the reason for the haunted house to make a fool of himself."
Lu Lingfeng straightened his chest and said, "I'm not worried, it's just Xue Huan, you know, this child is very timid."
Just be stubborn, a guy who wants to save face.
Zhou Hao: "What are you going to do next?"
Lu Lingfeng gritted his teeth and said, "I suspect that this backyard is the so-called hiding place for the white-haired ghost. I will find a way to search this place thoroughly tomorrow!"
Even if it's not at night, he's scared.
-------------------------------------
On the second day, Lu Lingfeng had no chance to act.
It’s not that he didn’t think of a solution, but that the county magistrate was dragging his feet.
County Magistrate Lei doesn’t like disobedient subordinates.
So when he wanted to drive Lu Lingfeng away, he was so happy when he learned that he had made a bet with a victim's family.
Because he felt that no one could solve the case within seven days.
Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, Lu Lingfeng announced that the criminal had been caught and paraded in the streets.
He almost shocked the county magistrate's chin.
Later I learned that although it was fake, Lu Lingfeng caught it.
County Magistrate Lei was a little worried that Lu Lingfeng could really do it, so he began to stumbling to Lu Lingfeng.
He began to assign other jobs to Lu Lingfeng.
Digging canals, building Dragon King Temples and urging taxes are all the work of county magistrates.
In particular, tax issues are the top priority.
So the murderer was only left to stand for a few days.
It made Lu Lingfeng feel so frustrated that he had a headache. The headache was a local disease in Ju County.
Many people here have headaches, mainly due to miasma.
People cannot cure miasma, so they can only cure headaches.
But so far, this disease can be said to be unsolvable, and Dr. Zhai can only make the patient suffer less through acupuncture.
Patients who develop to the late stage can only suffer from pain.
Of course, Lu Lingfeng was just a headache caused by getting angry. Only after living here for a long time will he get headaches.
Zhou Hao helped Lu Lingfeng take over the work of repairing the Dragon King Temple.
Either he was asked to repair it or be a supervisor.
Repair it for a leak and it will be repaired in one day.
......
It's the seventh day in a blink of an eye.
The seven-day limit is limited, and many people are waiting to watch the fun.
However, Lu Lingfeng has not been doing chores all these seven days.
He asked the yamen runners to live opposite the Hall of Encyclopedia, and took turns to stare at the Hall of Encyclopedia for twelve hours a day, ensuring that no one except Doctor Zhai was in and out.
In other words, as long as that guy hides here, he will not have the chance to leave.
Lu Lingfeng summoned all the yamen runners in the county today.
He also specially asked Zhou Hao to put on a Taoist robe and appeared in front of these yamen runners.
Lu Lingfeng looked at the yamen runners in the array and said, "Although I have been busy with miscellaneous work in the city these days, my brothers are not idle. Lu Lingfeng thanked me, old elder, is the city gate so tightly?"
"Yan, as long as it is an adult man, he has never been released. The portrait provided by the adult is like a real person. If he appears, we promise to recognize him at first glance!"
It was not the old elders who spoke, but one of the yamen runners, and he was responsible for the city gate.
The old senior said, "With that portrait, he will be reported even if he appears in front of ordinary people. I think this murderer has not appeared in the past few days, so he must have been hiding somewhere."
Lu Lingfeng: "Have the city patrol has stopped?"
Old elder: "No!"
Xue Huan: "I and the old chief each led a team of men and turned over the entire county town several times, but I never stopped!"
Lu Lingfeng nodded with satisfaction: "So, the murderer has been caught by me!"
The old elder said in surprise: "Where is he?"
Lu Lingfeng smiled and said, "The Back Garden of the Hall of All living beings!"
Boom! As soon as these words came out, the yamen runners immediately changed their expressions. Unexpectedly, the murderer hid in the haunted house.
He had a look of excitement just now, but now he has begun to give up.
You can't blame them, Lu Lingfeng was scared very much.
The old chief said in a little fear: "Prince Lu, you are not going to take us to the Hall of Enemies to arrest..."
"County lieutenant, we dare to arrest people, but we dare not arrest ghosts!" The young yamen runner who said he promised to recognize him.
Lu Lingfeng shouted, "Where is there any evil spirit? The one next to me is Taoist Master Qingxu. He comes from Donghuaguan, the capital. I don't know if you have heard of it. His master is the Immortal Master Luo who killed the snake demon."
"Uh, I know, I heard that Taoist Master Qingxu helped the emperor find it..."
"Yes, I also rewarded the title."
The yamen runners started to talk about it, and it seemed that they all knew Zhou Hao’s deeds.
Yet, his deeds were compiled into storytelling in Nanzhou. It was less than an hour away from Nanzhou City.
Zhou Hao said, "I have been living in the Hall of All living beings these days. If there are ghosts, I will definitely be able to detect them and take action to get rid of them! Today, I will go to the back garden of the Hall of All living beings with you. What else is there to be scary about you?"
"Since we have the Taoist priest who follows us, we are not afraid!"
"Yes! We are not afraid anymore, county magistrate."
Seeing that the morale was available, Lu Lingfeng waved his hand with satisfaction and said, "Go!"
The group came to the door of the Hall of All living beings.
Lu Lingfeng looked at Xue Huan and said, "Xue Huan, where is the official power!"
Xue Huan held a gong in his hand and said, "The government will catch the thief, and the people will avoid it!"
While beating the gong, the group rushed directly into the back garden.
The people didn't know about it at first, but now they all ran out and gathered outside the Hall of All living beings.
Zhai Liang rushed in in panic.
"No, what are you going to do? Sir..."
Lu Lingfeng pointed to Zhang Langzhong and said, "This man is an accomplice. Stop it first and don't let him inform the thief!"
"yes!"
Zhai Liang said speechlessly: "You are allowed to beat the gong, so you don't need to speak? What's the reason..."
The yamen runners also found it a bit strange, but they were obedient and directly tied up Doctor Zhai's mouth.
With Zhou Hao in charge, these yamen runners were extremely brave and kicked open the door and rushed in.
Zhou Hao stayed in the yard without going in.
The doctor Zhai widened his eyes and struggled to stop him, but he was just a doctor.
How could it be possible to break free from these strong yamen runners?
At this moment, a man wearing a white robe and a mask came out from the window on the second floor.
It is the legendary white-haired ghost.
This look scared many people, especially Doctor Zhai, who was so scared that he hid behind the yamen runners.
The white-haired ghost stepped on the roof and wanted to leave, but found that there were yamen runners everywhere around him, and he had nowhere to escape.
"The thief is outside the window!" Xue Huan shouted while ringing the gong.
Zhou Hao was so angry that his brain hurt so that he didn't let him continue to shout.
He jumped up to the roof with everyone's screams.
The white-haired evil spirit opened its hands and rushed towards Zhou Hao.
"Pretending to be a ghost!"
Chapter completed!
