Festival Awakening: I, the Ghost Festival, a night of strange things

Chapter 71 Heading to Thousand Buddha Temple

In the suburbs of Longjiang City, there is a Buddhist temple called Qianfo Temple.

Due to the strange invasion, ordinary people are in danger. Therefore, the incense in Qianfo Temple has been very strong in recent days.

When people encounter something they cannot understand, they always like to improvise.

However, this time it is obvious that Buddha cannot bless these ordinary people.

Because it seems that Buddha cannot even protect the monks who worship him all day long.

One night three days ago, the monk in the Thousand Buddhas Temple disappeared mysteriously.

It was determined that these monks disappeared mysteriously at night.

It's because, during the daytime on the first day, when the pilgrims went to offer incense, everything was still business as usual at Thousand Buddhas Temple.

The next day, when pilgrims went to offer incense again, Thousand Buddhas Temple was already empty, with not a single monk left.

Originally, the monks at Thousand Buddha Temple seemed to have mysteriously disappeared overnight.

Pilgrims who came to offer incense noticed that something was wrong and immediately reported the incident.

After receiving the report, the people from the Night Patrol Department immediately sent an action team to investigate.

Unfortunately, the action team went there and found nothing.

In the end, we could only temporarily seal off the area around Thousand Buddhas Temple and prevent ordinary people from getting close.

Blocking Thousand Buddhas Temple is treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

If you want to completely solve this strange incident, you still need to find out the reason for the mysterious disappearance of the monks and find the hidden evil spirits.

"Oh shit!"

"There is no useful information at all about the cases handled by this group of related households in Team [-]!" After reading the file, Zhang Ding threw the file on the table and said angrily.

Team Three, this is a special team in the Night Patrol Division.

The members of the third team were all related to wealthy people and relatives of officials. After awakening to become solar terms masters, they were assigned to the Night Patrol Department to gain gold.

The captain of the third team is the brother-in-law of the director of the Night Patrol Department.

This group of people in the third team, in terms of overall strength, is the weakest in the night patrol department, and their case handling ability is also the weakest in the night patrol department.

The director often arranges some simple tasks and assigns them to the third team.

The case of Thousand Buddha Temple is also defined as a simple case because there are only missing persons and no casualties for the time being.

The director of the Night Patrol Department handed over this case to the third team, originally intending to let the third team take credit.

I never expected that the third team still couldn't handle this case.

In desperation, the area around Thousand Buddhas Temple could only be sealed off.

Now handing over this case to Zhang Ding, to put it bluntly, is asking Zhang Ding to wipe his brother-in-law's ass.

Zhang Ding is a responsible person. Zhang Ding understands that if the strange incident is not resolved, even if there are no casualties for the time being, there will be casualties sooner or later.

In order to avoid casualties, he decided to take the case.

After checking the files, Zhang Ding did not find any useful information. He decided to go to Thousand Buddha Temple in person tonight.

Most of his team members have been transferred, and there are really not many people available now.

After much thought, Zhang Ding decided to transfer brothers Dazhuang and Xiaozhuang back.

Then, taking Hua Xiangrong with them, the four of them explored Thousand Buddhas Temple at night.

In the evening, Zhang Ding was already preparing to leave for Qianfo Temple.

For some reason, he suddenly felt uneasy.

In the office, Zhang Ding looked at Hua Xiangrong and Dazhuang. Xiaozhuang said, "It's just the four of us. I always feel a little uneasy in my heart."

Dazhuang, who had been silent all this time, said: "The other brothers were transferred to the Japanese Patrol Department during the day and have been busy all day."

"If we let them come to perform tasks again at night, I'm afraid there will be some complaints!" Xiaozhuang was also nearby and said angrily: "If you ask me, the director is partial and always asks us to wipe the butt of the third team."

Zhang Ding waved his hand, stopped Xiaozhuang from continuing to speak, and said: "The third team's capabilities are limited, and what they can't solve will naturally be solved by us."

"If the strange incident continues to be delayed, the people who will be harmed will still be ordinary people."

In terms of character, Zhang Ding is definitely nothing to say.

This is why he has such a group of brothers who follow him without complaint.

"How about looking for Gao Fei?" Hua Xiangrong reminded from the side.

Since, for now, there is no one to adjust.

Then, we can only find foreign aid.

Gao Fei's strength is not inferior to Zhang Ding, so he is considered a good foreign aid.

"Correct!"

"How could I forget brother Gao Fei!" Zhang Ding said, slapping his thigh.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ding immediately called Gao Fei and wanted to ask Gao Fei for help.

Gao Fei is not averse to dealing with strange events.

As a solar term master, if you want to become stronger, you must kill evil spirits.

By helping Zhang Ding deal with strange incidents, he can not only kill evil spirits and absorb ghost energy, but also receive rewards from the Night Patrol Department. This is the best of both worlds.

After listening to Zhang Ding's narration of what happened, Gao Fei said that there was no problem in helping, but the brothers had to settle the accounts.

Merit points are definitely indispensable.

Meritorious points?
For Zhang Ding, this is not a big deal.

It was nothing more than a matter of him making a report.

After all, Gao Fei and Master Hu have a close relationship. For Master Hu's sake, the night patrol director will not deliberately deny Gao Fei's merit points.

After hearing Gao Fei's request, Zhang Ding quickly assured on the phone: "Brother, merit points are not a problem."

"However, the difficulty of this mission is unknown. I cannot judge how many merit points are appropriate to give you."

"Otherwise, we will decide the specific number of merit points after the task is completed. In short, don't worry, I will definitely not treat you badly."

Gao Fei trusted Zhang Ding's character.

Therefore, he agreed immediately and said, "Okay, come and pick me up!"

After hearing that Gao Fei agreed, Zhang Ding was overjoyed.

On Gao Fei's side, after hanging up the phone, he made a special call to Zhang Yi and asked Zhang Yi to come find him.

If there is a mission, Gao Fei still faces his new little brother.

After solving the Black Cat mission last time, Zhang Ding took back the golden pistol lent to Zhang Yi.

The weapons and equipment of the Night Patrol Division are all registered and cannot be given away at will.

Gao Fei did not make things difficult for Zhang Ding. After dealing with the black cat, he directly ordered two gold box cannons for Zhang Yi.

The two golden box cannons, plus the bullets, cost Gao Fei a hundred merit points in total.

Now, Zhang Yi has to work for Gao Fei to pay off his debts.

About half an hour later, Zhang Yi took the lead to join Gao Fei, and then, after waiting for another ten minutes, Zhang Ding and the others also arrived.

After everyone gathered together, the vehicle drove towards the Thousand Buddha Temple in the suburbs.

In the car, Zhang Ding introduced Gao Fei to the general situation of Qianfo Temple.

The vehicle drove on the road and arrived near Thousand Buddhas Temple in about half an hour.
