"Yes, right here!"
"Dig this tree for me."
"Okay, dig it up, this harmful tree."
"This tree has probably become a spirit. I'm afraid it's eating us."
Early the next morning, the mayor, who was wearing a black village committee uniform, had a high hairline and was slightly stout, pointed to the road in front and led a large group of villagers to the entrance of the town.
The excavator and crane are lowered and supported sideways, and the front of the truck is reversed to prepare for excavation.
Because under this big tree, another person was killed just now. It was a passing villager who noticed something was wrong with the other person.
At first, the man crossed the cordon and squatted under a big tree. His body was twisted in a weird posture and lying on the ground. He kept carving something on the ground quickly with branches.
He kept mumbling a string of Thai words.
The villagers were just about to go over and ask what was going on. The man seemed to have finished painting and inserted the branch into his neck with his backhand.
Moreover, it was inserted continuously, and several bloody holes appeared on his neck. As the blood spurted out, the man twisted and froze in place, maintaining a strange posture until he died.
Witnesses witnessed it, and police investigations confirmed it was suicide.
But the mayor thought this tree was unlucky and it was this tree that was responsible.
So he dug up the tree.
Fortunately, those who were involved in the accident were all gang members, but we couldn't let the villagers get into trouble, which had already caused panic in the town.
"Stop, what are you doing!" A sharp shout sounded.
A siren sounded, and ten police cars came around, surrounding everyone at the entrance of the town.
The thick-browed Commander Cai got out of the leading police car and stopped the action at the scene.
When the crane and excavator drivers saw this posture, they did not dare to move anymore.
"Captain Cai, this is a matter for our town. Do we need to dispatch police officers to dig out a tree?"
The mayor walked out of the crowd, and a group of villagers also gathered behind the mayor. With a puzzled expression on his face, the mayor asked somewhat unclearly.
"This tree is the scene where a trafficker was hanged. The case is still being investigated. How can it be dug up? You are destroying evidence and destroying the crime scene."
Team Cai's reply is also well-founded.
The mayor heard this but hesitated:
"Captain Cai, you don't know that this tree is unlucky. It can kill people and must be dug up. This is also the opinion of the villagers."
But Team Cai didn't listen to the mayor's explanation at all:
"I don't care if you want to dig up the tree, but destroying the crime scene is definitely not possible. If you want to dig it up, you have to wait until the investigation is completed."
When the surrounding villagers heard this, they all hesitated. Uh-huh.
"No, it must be dug up. No more people can die. A-Hun, A-Jun, please start the machine and let others stop these ignorant people."
"We are all villagers in the town. You don't want your relatives to be hanged under the big tree!"
The mayor heard the words but didn't care at all. When he spoke, a red light flashed in his eyes, and his eyeballs began to turn red.
After the crane and excavator drivers struggled for a while, they continued to work.
"Oh, it's exactly what Mr. Zhang said."
Captain Cai had been observing the mayor, and he immediately noticed the mayor's red eyes.
Ordinary people might think that the mayor was angry, but Zhang Fudao had already contacted him and told him about the tree, and it was confirmed by 9 mages.
What was under this big tree was a foreign evil spirit that was ten times more powerful than the female evil spirit that night. If it was released, it would be a disaster, and he had to stop it.
Mr. Zhang Fudao told him that if he found out about the mayor's change, he should immediately stick it to him with a talisman.
Since the encounter with evil that night, the team members, including him, basically had a charm in their hands, folded into a triangle and worn everywhere.
Captain Cai took out a yellow paper charm from the folder in his briefcase, walked up to it and stuck it on the mayor's head.
The mayor felt as if he had been splashed with hot oil, his head made a sizzling sound, and he squatted on the ground holding his head.
This performance frightened the villagers, and they all took a few steps back.
"You've been struck by evil spirits. What are you still doing in a daze? Quickly retreat. You should know what it's like to alternately grab someone, right?"
When they heard the word "Zhongsha", everyone ran away in fright. The crane and excavator drivers also abandoned their vehicles, jumped directly from the car door, and ran away after them.
Team Cai took out four more charms from the folder and handed them to two police officers. They stepped forward and put the charms on the mayor's wrists, pinched his arms through the charms, cuffed his hands, and took him back to the police car.
'I want you to be unable to go to heaven or enter the earth. The unclean soul cannot be defeated, and no method can drive away evil. Darkness and evil will always be with you.'
The mayor kept mumbling and uttered a series of low-pitched Thai words like the buzzing of flies, cursing everyone.
Captain Cai and two of his men took out several talismans at the same time and applied them to the mayor's mouth and body.
In the original plot, this was a subplot that forcibly destroyed the meat dumplings ceremony, leading to Ghost Master's rebellion later.
Because Wu Heng arranged for him to go to a big show, but he became a maintainer.
Team Cai contacted Wu Heng in Guardian Affairs Temple and told him about the mayor.
The two communicated for a while and heard that Wu Heng would come to deal with it soon. Team Cai sent people to block the roads within a hundred meters and asked the villagers to take a detour.
Wu Heng, who was in Guardian Affairs Temple, received the news from Team Cai and knew that Ghost Master was already in a hurry, so he had to speed up too.
At this time, all six friends invited by Master Jinguang have arrived, including Master Axi, Zhong Yanhuo and Wu Heng, for a total of nine.
"Masters, please take a look. Someone just sent this message It Comes. It seems that this evil spirit has noticed something is wrong. The Thai text written on this corpse translates to curse others and its intention to transform into a human being."
Everyone craned their necks and looked at each other. They had already discussed four plans It Comes, but none of them were perfect.
This is also the overall environment here. Mages have always been in a weak position when facing evil spirits. They usually focus on communication and negotiation when sending evil spirits.
"How about we use the fourth plan? You don't have to worry about your own weakness causing the formation to be broken. Zhong Yanhuo and I can hold it down."
"I forgot to introduce you to you, this Zhong Yanhuo is the person who possesses Zhong Kui Destiny."
Wu Heng saw that everyone did not have a unified opinion, so he simply made a decision.
"Oh? If Zhong Kui is a destined person, he is very likely to be able to control him." Master Zhengyang's eyes lit up.
"Not only that, Mr. Zhang's destiny is no worse than Yan Huo's."
Master Axi also added something, which made all the mages shine brightly.
However, Master Axi hesitated and said:
"But this formation requires eight people. Last year, I was devastated by a female evil spirit and my internal organs were injured. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on until the end. If Yanhuo and Fudao go to suppress the formation, there will be one less person."
Everyone frowned again, it was indeed the same reason.
But at present, all the mages that can be found have basically been found. The circle is so big and there are only so many people. How can we just add another one.
Young people can be found, but if the method is not enough, it will become a weakness and may become a breakthrough, causing things to fail.
"Master Axi, are you seriously injured?" Master Red Flower asked.
"I don't even have the ability to do it even if I ask for my life." Master Axi smiled bitterly and shook his head.
For a mage, it is already very serious if the most basic method of sending one's life fails.
