Qin Shaoyou knew that Zhu Xiucai was flattering, but he agreed with one thing in Zhu Xiucai's words.

The ghost that was sealed in the drum was probably really calling for revenge.

Because this ghost, from the beginning to the end, except for beating the drum, did not toss about anything else, and did not harm anyone.

Although the drum sound it made was irritating and uncomfortable, it did not cause substantial harm to people. It was more like using this method to attract people's attention.

Thinking of this, Qin Shaoyou said to the human-skinned ghost drum: "I am the chief banner officer of the Demon Division in Mianyuan County. If you have any grievances, just speak out, and I will make the decision for you."

Cui Youxu was taken aback when he heard the words.

In his impression, Qin Shaoyou has always been a ruthless person who kills demons and ghosts without mercy. Why did he change his personality today and want to make decisions for ghosts?

Confused, he leaned into Qin Shaoyou's ear and asked in a low voice, "Do you really want to avenge the ghost?"

Qin Shaoyou nodded and said: "Although it is a ghost now, when it was alive, it was also a citizen of Daxia. Now it runs to the gate of Zhenyaosi to beat drums and complain, how can I ignore it?

Although the duty of our Demon Suppressors is to suppress demons and ghosts, we should also help them seek justice when they encounter ghosts who have grievances and have not harmed others.

What's more, this person who peeled human skin to make a drum and sealed his soul in the drum is definitely not a kind person. Moreover, he must have conspired to place the human-skin ghost drum at the gate of the county government office.

Therefore, helping this ghost to seek justice is not only punishing the evil and promoting the good, protecting the environment and the people, but also helping ourselves. "

When Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others heard this, they all nodded, thinking that Qin Shaoyou was right.

Monk Ma put his palms together, and after reciting the Buddha's name, he sighed again: "My lord is really..."

Zhu Xiucai took the lead and said: "Have roots of wisdom? Have a destiny with Buddha? Monk, monk, I just praised you today and finally changed your words. Why did you change them back?"

Monk Ma, who was robbed of his words, was stunned, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

In fact, neither Zhu Xiucai nor Monk Ma knew. Qin Shaoyou had another reason for not saying it.

Qin Shaoyou is now able to collect the gratitude of ghosts and ghosts for food.

If he can help the ghost in the human skin ghost drum and avenge his grievances, he can not only get new recipes and ingredients when killing the real culprit behind the scenes, but also collect the gratitude of the ghosts to make ghost dew.

It is really killing multiple birds with one stone.

After pondering for a moment, Cui Youxu nodded in agreement: "You're right, this case really should be investigated."

It's just that the ghost in the drum didn't know whether it didn't hear Qin Shaoyou's words, or didn't believe Qin Shaoyou, and didn't tell its grievances, but just kept beating the drum.

Qin Shaoyou frowned, waiting to repeat what he said just now.

Cui Youzheng shook his head and said, "It's useless. This ghost is sealed in the drum, so he has no way to communicate with you, otherwise he wouldn't be beating the drum to communicate."

Qin Shaoyou immediately asked: "Then Senior Brother Cui, is there any way to call this ghost out of the drum?"

Cui Yougui habitually pretended to be coercive, and he held his head high and held his chest high, and said proudly: "You asked the right person. It is really difficult for other Taoists to summon the ghost in the human skin drum. But for For me, it's a trivial matter. I just need to put down the altar and cast a little spell, and I can make this ghost in the drum break free and come out to see you."

"As expected of Senior Brother Cui, he is really amazing."

Qin Shaoyou flattered, and then made arrangements: "Brother Cui, take a look at what you need to set up the altar, and tell Zhu Xiucai to prepare it immediately."

Then he turned back and shouted: "Monk, come and carry this human skin ghost drum back to the Yamen of the Zhenyaosi."

At the same time, he didn't forget to say hello to An Mutong: "Fifth brother-in-law, this drum involves evil methods and unjust ghosts, so I took it away, and I also took over the case."

An Mutong nodded, no objection.

Although this drum is the drum for complaining in the county government, it involves human skin, unjust ghosts and evil methods, so it should naturally be under the control of the demon town chief.

The fifth sister told Qin Shaoyou to pay attention to safety and to protect herself.

An Mutong also ordered a few words, and then asked Qin Shaoyou to send someone to the county government office to inform him when the case made progress.

"No problem." Qin Shaoyou agreed, glanced at the yamen servants on duty hiding behind the county yamen gate, and waved to them: "Come here, everyone, I have something to ask you."

Several yamen servants came out trembling, and before Qin Shaoyou could speak, they hurriedly proved their innocence:

"My lord, this matter has nothing to do with us!"

"That's right, my lord, we didn't know it was a human skin ghost drum, let alone a ghost was sealed inside it, if we knew, we couldn't let it be placed here..."

"That's right, if we knew, we would have burned it down."

"Don't be nervous, I know this drum has nothing to do with you, I just want to ask you, when was this drum placed here?"

Qin Shaoyou is already very proficient in using [Smart Tongue].

What he said was nothing special to others, but after hearing it, the yamen servants really stopped being nervous.

They only thought it was some kind of secret technique of the demon town master, although they were curious, they didn't dare to ask more.

Answer questions honestly.

"This grievance drum was placed outside the county government a long time ago, but a few months ago, when the officials of the Zhenyao Division wiped out the demons of the Black Lotus Sect, it was smashed by Liu Ya. Afterwards, we found someone to repair it. It was repaired not long ago, and it was placed back at the gate of the county government office."

"Oh?" Qin Shaoyou raised his brows slightly, "Did the drum beat on its own before to complain of grievances?"

Several yamen servants shook their heads together: "No."

It seems that there is probably something wrong with the person who repaired the drum... Qin Shaoyou guessed in his heart, and then asked: "Who is the person who repaired the Drum of Injustice?"

A yamen servant immediately replied, "It's a Song drum maker in the west of the city."

"Do you know the exact address of his home?"

"I know." The yamen servant responded first, and then asked: "My lord, do you want to invite the Song drum maker to interrogate?"

Qin Shaoyou noticed the abnormality of the yamen servant, and said, "Why, what's the problem?"

"The Song drummer is dead."

Qin Shaoyou was taken aback by the yamen servant's answer, and quickly asked, "Dead? When did it happen?"

"Just a few days after he repaired the Drum of Injustice." The yamen servant replied.

"What was the cause of death?"

"I heard it's a disease."

"Sick? What kind of disease?"

"this……"

The yamen servant was speechless and could not answer.

Qin Shaoyou didn't embarrass him, he turned his head and called out the night watchman retained by Mianyuan County to ask, but these people didn't know.

Can't blame them too much.

After all, before tonight, Mingyuan Drum had never shown any abnormalities, and they were just ordinary night watchmen with the highest cultivation level of eighth rank, so it was normal to see no problem with this drum.

So although Qin Shaoyou was disappointed, he didn't blame them. He just arranged for them to investigate at the drummer's house to see how and why the drummer died.

These remaining night watchmen also knew that Qin Shaoyou was giving them a chance to make up the proof, so he immediately took orders to go to the house of the Song Drummaker.

Qin Shaoyou asked the yamen servants a few more questions before releasing them back to the county yamen.

After saying goodbye to An Mutong and Fifth Sister, Qin Shaoyou returned to Zhenyaosi.

At this moment, a dharma altar has been set up in the courtyard of the demon town hall.

The human-skin ghost drum was placed right in front of the altar. Cui Yougui made a formula with his left hand and held a sword in his right. He walked around the altar and the human-skin ghost drum. Even more muttering.

As Cui Yougui cast the spell, the sound of 'dong dong' coming from the human skin ghost drum gradually became more rapid.

Vaguely, Qin Shaoyou and the others heard a shrill roar mixed in with the drumbeats, which made people shudder and shudder.

And on the tympanic membrane, there also appeared a grimace whose face could not be seen clearly.

It is struggling desperately, rushing wildly, trying to break through the shackles of the eardrum, and rush out from the human skin ghost drum.

Just as Qin Shaoyou was waiting for Cui Yougui to call out the ghost in the drum, a paper crane flew into the demon town of Mianyuan County under the cover of night.

It was Liao Yaoshao and others who were sent to follow the wedding party, and the news came back.
