A moment later…
Chief Han finally stood up and said,"
"Perhaps…They were the netherworld soldiers, or perhaps they were malicious ghosts…But they didn't hurt anyone, so we can't provoke them!”
"After all, we don't have the power to fight against them!”
"Since their goal is to kill the malicious ghosts, let's just sit back and watch them fight!”
Chief Han's words set the Supernatural Department's attitude toward the ghost soldiers.
Not close, not provoking.
Everyone agreed. After all, this was the best decision.
Then…
The meeting ended and everyone dispersed.
Then, Chief Han asked Yun Ying and the other two to stay.
"The three of you will carry out another mission, which is to help Elder Jie Bei investigate the cause of his disciple Yuan Tong's death!”
"There are still three hours before dawn. You guys should rest first…He would go to Yuantong Temple with Elder Jiebei at dawn!”
After Yun Ying heard this, she was stunned and said,
"Chief…Why should we help these monks? They were clearly cultivators, but they sat in the mountain gate and never came out to help get rid of ghosts…We still need to spend a lot of money to hire them!"
"Compared to the Taoist masters, these monks are as disgusting as worms!”
Yun Ying never had a good impression of monks.
Chief Han nodded slightly.
However, he sighed and said,
"There's nothing we can do now, because there are still too few experts in our Supernatural Department…"There are many experts in the Buddhist Sect, and we still need their strength. It doesn't matter if we spend money. As long as we can suppress the malicious ghosts and protect the people, it's fine!”
He was also very helpless.
This was because ever since the revival of the Specters a hundred years ago, the power of the country had weakened significantly.
This was because firearms had no effect on ghosts at all.
They could only rely on cultivators to kill ghosts.
However, even if the country tried its best to nurture cultivators, they could not catch up to the people of religion.
Both Taoism and Buddhism had many experts.
Moreover, in the early days of the revival of malicious ghosts, Taoism had sent most of the experts down the mountain to suppress the malicious ghosts.
Therefore, they suffered heavy losses. The number of experts now was simply inferior to the Buddhist Sect.
After the revival of the ghost energy, Buddhism closed its doors for decades.
In these decades, these monks did not care about the affairs of the world.
He had been recuperating.
Therefore, after Buddhism reopened its sect 50 years ago, its strength greatly surpassed Taoism.
Moreover…
Now that Buddhism was mixed up with the foreign God's religion, Taoism was being suppressed.
It was almost as if there was no incense left in Taoism, and there was almost no capital to cultivate disciples.
So...
Now, the Dragon Country had no choice. If they encountered a powerful ghost, they would have to spend a lot of money to hire a Buddhist expert to help.
"It's just that…What a pity for the Daoists!"
Elder Han sighed.
Hearing Elder Han's words, Yun Ying couldn't refuse.
He could only nod and agree to help with the investigation.
Seeing this, Elder Han nodded in satisfaction and said,
"You've worked hard…After this matter is investigated, all of you should rest for a period of time and recuperate!”
Yun Ying bowed and said,
"Yes, sir! Thank you, Chief!"
Then, he brought Huang Sheng and Lin Feng to rest.
......
The next morning!
Ye Bei woke up comfortably in bed.
Although he had only slept for a short while, he was full of energy.
After eating his breakfast slowly, he prepared to go down the mountain to buy some tools to repair the City God Temple.
After all, he used to farm all day long and did not have much free time to build this Shing Wong Temple.
Moreover, the main door of the Shing Wong Temple had been destroyed by malicious ghosts yesterday. He had to buy a new door to replace it!
but...
Just as she stepped out of the door, she realized that someone was walking up from the mountain path.
One had to know that almost no one had set foot in the City God Temple now.
Almost all of them went to the church and Yuantong Temple to offer incense.
There were two people. An old man was holding the hand of a ten-year-old child.
Both of them were dressed in plain clothes.
It could even be said to be a little broken.
However, it was still relatively clean.
When he got closer, the old man took out a few crumpled notes and put them into the Merit Box.
Then, she said to Ye Bei,"
"Little Master, can you give me two incense sticks? I want to pay my respects to Lord Shing Wong!"
This surprised Ye Bei.
He knew that almost no one came to the City God Temple to offer incense anymore.
And now, for the first time ever, someone came to offer incense.
However…
He then guessed the reason.
That was because the souls of the people from the church and Yuantong Temple had been extracted by him.
This kind of big case where dozens of people died would definitely be discovered.
Therefore…
It was very likely that the churches and temples below had long been sealed off, and the police might be investigating them now.
Thinking of this…
Ye Bei led the old man into the main hall of the City God Temple.
Then, he gave an incense stick to the old man and the child respectively.
"Thank you, Little Master!"
The old man took the incense and lit it on the candle beside him.
Then, he pulled his grandson to kneel in front of the Shing Wong statue and kowtowed a few times.
Then he began to read,
" Lord Shing Wong, please save my grandson! Lord Shing Wong, please save my grandson!"
"If my grandson can survive, I will definitely come to fulfill my wish and offer three sacrifices to Lord Shing Wong!”
“......”
As the old man read, tears streamed down his face.
His face was filled with bitterness and despair.
Perhaps, he came to this Shing Wong Temple to seek peace of mind.
After all, it had been so many years since the Ghost Qi had revived, but there had never been a god appearing.
The only one who could save humanity was humanity itself. This was what everyone knew.
Now that the old man was here, perhaps he was just trying his luck!
