Chapter 277 - Surveillance Bureau

Chapter 277 - Surveillance Bureau

As he spoke, Li Huowang dragged the “ghost” by the hair and raised it up for everyone to see. “Look closely! The ghost has been killed by me! It’s no longer a threat and the people of Pi County will no longer suffer from having their sexual organs shrink!” This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

Li Huowang’s voice echoed throughout the entire county.

Bam!

Soon, everyone within Pi County started shouting and celebrating until the entire place shook. Everyone was crying tears of joy. They were no longer plagued by it anymore!

All of them reached inside their clothing and took out the ropes or chains before throwing them high up into the air.

Many of them even kneeled in front of Li Huowang and started calling him their Godfather. It was funny to think that they had previously doubted him.

The town guards quickly used long rods and strings to tie up the ghost’s body before parading it around all of Pi County.

Soon, the news spread and everyone in the County had learned of it.

With this, Li Huowang’s position and popularity within the County rose dramatically. Almost everyone gave him some food while the elders even kneeled and thanked him for saving their grandchildren.

That night, Magistrate Yang booked the best restaurant of the County to treat the guests to a meal.

Having saved all of Pi County, Li Huowang was assigned to the main seat, and many of the high ranking officers from the magistrate’s office even poured wine for him.

The worries that had clouded the minds of the people within Pi County had now completely disappeared. The desolate county soon regained its normal hustle and bustle.

Puppy, Gao Zhijian, and everyone else ate the best meal that the restaurant could offer. All of them felt like they were in Heaven.

Even if the ingredients were familiar to them and things that they had cooked many times before, the chefs of the best restaurant were able to turn them into something extraordinary.

Still, the County treated them equally well. The guards were eating from a clay pot filled with meat and drinking wine from a massive black cask.

When they saw Li Huowang walk in, the town guards immediately greeted him politely before inviting him to eat with them.

“All of you, get out first. The ghost has been cultivating for thousands of years and I need to make sure to get rid of it properly,” said Li Huowang.

None of them objected and quickly ran out of the morgue.

As he walked in, Li Huowang saw rows of corpses that were covered with a white cloth on the floor of the cold morgue.

Li Huowang walked past all the cold bodies until he reached the final one and took off the white cloth, revealing the dead beggar who was possessed by the ghost.

The beggar's face was covered in stubby hair and his clothes were tattered, but for some reason, they looked quite neat on him and there was no stench coming from him. He looked quite normal, like someone who would easily blend into the crowd. The only distinguishing feature of the beggar was his unibrow.

As Li Huowang examined the body, the body also opened its eyes and stared at Li Huowang.

Seeing this, Li Huowang took a step back as the beggar tore off the yellow talisman from his forehead. “Interesting. What kind of talisman is this and what is its effect?”

“I don’t know. I just used it randomly. It was drawn by someone else,” answered Li Huowang calmly; it was as if he had already expected all this.

The beggar rolled off the wooden pallet and shook off the dust on his body. As he moved, a metallic clanging sound could be heard from within his body.

“How should I address you?” The beggar bowed toward Li Huowang, his eyes resolute.

“Ao Jing Sect, Er Jiu.” Li Huowang would never reveal his true name and thus, he decided to use the name of the dead Jiang Yingzi.

“If I am right, you must be from the Surveillance Bureau,” continued Li Huowang.

The beggar did not deny it. “Yep. I’m one of the underlings. You are very smart. All I did was wink at you and you followed my plan.”
