In addition to Qingji and other auxiliary police officers, there is also a temporary team composed of wandering ghosts who have recently been helping the Demon Suppression Department patrol demons.
After death, the soul will go to the underworld, but there are also souls that stay in the human world for various reasons.
Among them, souls that have no resentment, evil spirits, and no harmful intentions often turn into wandering ghosts.
They often have unfulfilled wishes.
Either help them fulfill their wishes, or perform a religious ritual for their salvation, otherwise their souls will keep wandering in the world.
And helping wandering souls and wild ghosts to be saved is also one of the tasks of the Demon Suppression Department.
Because wandering ghosts are yin objects, if they are not rescued and allowed to remain in the human world, even if they have no harmful intentions, they will damage the yang energy of living people and make them sick and suffer disasters.
They are even targeted by some people who practice evil arts and turn them into evil ghosts and ghosts.
Of course, the salvation mentioned here is salvation in the true sense, coordinating the practices of people in temples and Taoist temples.
Rather than the special way of salvation used by Monk Ma.
This time, because of the gathering of demons and ghosts in Mianyuan County and the strong Yin energy, many wandering ghosts wandering in the world were also attracted here.
After the night watchmen discovered these wandering ghosts, they identified them from harmful demons and ghosts, and then brought them back to the Demon Suppression Department.
Originally, he planned to ask Cui Xiaoqi to perform rituals for them, but unexpectedly, Cui Xiaoqi had an idea and 'recruited' them as temporary workers, specifically for the night shift.
As for the matter of salvation, I plan to wait until the demons and ghosts in the city are cleared out before proceeding.
Cui Youyou learned some ghost-control techniques in Jade Emperor Temple, and he just put them to use.
At this moment, these wandering ghosts are hiding in the shadows behind the lobby.
Not only can you avoid the sun here, but it is also the place with the strongest yin energy in the Demon Suppression Division.
Because there is a qi-entraining magic circle and a fuso ghost tree.
Qin Shaoyou was once very worried, fearing that these wandering ghosts would be devoured and enslaved by the Fuso Ghost Tree.
But after a few days, what he worried about did not happen, and the wandering ghosts were still alive and kicking.
I don’t know if it’s because this fuso ghost tree has just been planted and hasn’t developed the ability to detain ghosts yet.
Qin Shaoyou retracted his gaze from looking at the shadows at the back of the lobby. Hearing the nursery rhymes and shouts coming from outside the gate of the Demon Suppression Department, he couldn't help but smile.
He likes these movements because it shows that the evil spirit in Mianyuan County has been greatly alleviated and the lives of ordinary people are gradually returning to normal.
Isn't this what they, the night watchmen, are working so hard for?
Returning to the mission room with a smile on his face, Qin Shaoyou motioned to several flag officers to continue reporting their work.
The reports from Zhu Xiucai, Cui Youxu and others also proved that the public security in Mianyuan County is rapidly recovering.
After listening to the report, Qin Shaoyou nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard during this period. I have recorded all your credit and hard work in the book. I am going to report to Master Baihu and Master Qianhu to take credit for you.
.”
Although Zhu Xiucai, Sun Xianzong and others were all smiles, they did not forget to flatter them: "The adults commanded them well, and the subordinates dare not take credit."
Only Cui Youyou did not say this. He stood with his hands behind his back and his chest proudly raised, as if he was saying, "You are right, Master Dao, I have indeed made great contributions."
After praising him for his hard work, Qin Shaoyou discussed the next work arrangements with several small flag officials.
"That's it. If you think of anything you need to add when you get down, come back to me."
Qin Shaoyou issued an order to expel guests and planned to continue practicing Xuanwu Zhenqing after the few flag officers left.
Cui Yougui, Sun Xianzong and others responded and prepared to leave.
But Zhu Xiucai stopped everyone at this time, and said to Mr. Qin with a smile: "Sir, everyone has worked hard these days, you might as well take a rest and adjust. As the old saying goes, men and women match...
…Ah, it’s a combination of work and rest, so I can work without getting tired.”
Qin Shaoyou heard a black thread.
What kind of old saying is this?
"Do you want me to give everyone a day off?" Qin Shaoyou asked with a frown.
Zhu Xiucai waved his hand and said: "Forget it, just take a day off. Although the evil mood has been greatly alleviated now, it has not been completely eliminated after all. I want to say that we might as well leave a team of people on duty today and give others a half-day off. I
Please go to Goulan to listen to the music."
As soon as these words came out, not only Qin Shaoyou, but also several other small flag officers were surprised.
Shan Daonian opened his mouth wide with a look of shock on his face: "Did I hear you correctly? Scholar, you said you want to treat us? Or do you want to invite a big guy?"
Cui Yougui stuck his head out, glanced outside the mission room, and murmured: "The sun doesn't rise in the west, scholar. Why did you start talking nonsense?"
Monk Ma stepped in front of Zhu Xiucai with a serious look on his face, stretched out his hand and rubbed and pinched his face, causing Zhu Xiucai to struggle quickly and asked repeatedly: "What are you doing? Don't rub it, or it will break."
Xiang, can you help me find a wife?"
Monk Ma said: "There's nothing wrong with this face. It's not someone else pretending to be."
Sun Xianzong frowned and asked warily: "Xiucai, what tricks do you want to play this time?"
Zhu Xiucai was unhappy. After getting rid of Monk Ma's iron hand, he rubbed his sore face and asked with a groan: "I invite everyone to go to Goulan to listen to music. Why is it just a trick?"
Sun Xianzong said: "Nonsense, you are so stingy. You always take advantage of others. How can you treat me as a guest?"
Zhu Xiucai argued with reason: "Who said I didn't treat you to a guest? Old Sun, you are hiding your conscience and said, before coming to Mianyuan County, when I was in Luocheng, didn't I ask you to dance the sand dance?"
"It's just because you asked me to dance the sand dance that I suspect you are playing tricks."
It's okay that Zhu Xiucai didn't mention this matter. Once he mentioned it, Sun Xianzong gritted his teeth with hatred.
"You invited me to dance a sand dance for one penny, and then you asked me to treat you to a drink and ask for damn good wine. After all, I spent two taels of silver on the drink, which is enough to dance for twenty
Qusha is dancing! Even if you add a little more money, you can bring the dancing girl out!"
Zhu Xiucai was a little embarrassed when his colleagues revealed his dark history. He smiled dryly and explained: "I'm not stinging, I just want to save money to marry a wife..."
"cut!"
Everyone didn't believe it.
Qin Shaoyou waved his hand to calm down a few of his men, and then asked Zhu Xiucai: "To be honest, why are you treating us?"
Zhu Xiucai smiled and told the truth: "I wrote a book and sold it to the storyteller. I recently gave a lecture at Goulanwasi. It is said that it was very popular and the venue was full..."
"Book? What book?"
"Xiucai, you must be writing some kind of book, right? Oh my, if you write that kind of book, why don't you show it to your brothers first for fun?"
"Bah!" Zhu Xiucai spat, "What I wrote is a regular storybook. It is the heroic deeds of our Demon Suppression Division, not the kind of book you are talking about!"
Qin Shaoyou was shocked.
Zhu Xiucai actually wrote a storybook and sold it to storytellers? It was very popular, and every venue was sold out?
Unexpectedly, this Fengxiao under my hand is also a best-selling author?
When Zhu Xiucai said that he was writing about the Demon Suppressing Division and the night watchmen, several of the flag officers immediately became excited and asked:
"Xiucai, have you written about me?"
"I am in your storybook, am I powerful?"
"Brother Xiucai, you must say something nice for me in your storybook. I haven't asked for a wife yet..."
Cui Yougui's eyes were bright.
He recalled the promise Zhu Xiucai had made to him, promising that his heroic deeds would be spread throughout Mianyuan County.
Is it possible that this story is originally about his deeds?
In order to save the common people in the world, the disciples of the Jade Emperor Temple took off their Taoist robes and put on black clothes to kill demons and demons. Oh my, just thinking about such a story made his blood boil.
No wonder the people in Mianyuan County love it so much that every venue is packed!
In a daze, Cui Youyou seemed to have seen the scene where he was worshiped by all the people.
"Hehe, hehehe..."
Senior Brother Cui couldn't hold it back anymore and grinned stupidly.
