[PS: In the previous chapter, the name of the female ghost has been changed to "Mrs. Chu".]
Li Mu regretfully handed the Soul Beating Whip to Constable Zhao. When he felt the lust in his body, his mood became better again.
For Mrs. Chu, if she couldn't reach the Soul Realm in three days, she would be sacrificed to Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon.
Therefore, she had an extremely urgent desire to absorb Li Mu's Yang Qi.
This desire between life and death just happened to make Li Mu. He could feel that the lust in his body had been perfected and he could condense his soul at any time.
In Spring Wind Pavilion, the two women, Qiaoqiao and Rongrong, looked at Li Mu angrily. They gritted their teeth and said, "It's you who harmed Mrs. Chu!"
Li Mu had called them out the most in the past half month, so he was the most familiar with them. He sighed and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a constable."
Many prostitutes in the brothel, including the madam, had long been bewitched by Mrs. Chu. They regarded her as their master in their hearts. They needed the cultivators of the yamen to forcibly intervene in their minds so that they could become ordinary people again.
Constable Zhao looked at the crowd and ordered, "Take them back to the yamen first."
The constables took the prostitutes and marched to the yamen, attracting the attention of countless passers-by. When they passed by Yunyan Pavilion, even Liu Hanyan ran out to watch the fun.
She saw Li Mu walking at the front at a glance. She ran over and asked, "What's going on?"
Li Mu said, "Behind Spring Wind Pavilion, there is a female ghost controlling it. These are all brothel girls who have been bewitched by her. Now I want to take them back to the government office and remove the bewitchment of the female ghost. Now you should believe that I went to the brothel to do something serious, right?"
Liu Hanyan rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm not by your side. Who knows what you're doing inside?"
Li Mu glanced at her and said: "Do you think I'm stupid enough to give away my primordial yang that I've been saving for nineteen years to these prostitutes? My primordial yang is for you …"
Liu Hanyan blushed and quickly covered Li Mu's mouth. Since the last time she took the initiative to kiss him, he became bolder and bolder in front of her.
The constables not far away did not hear what Li Mu said, but they saw the intimate actions of the two.
One of the constables sighed and said, "Everyone said that Li Mu hooked up with a young, beautiful, and rich woman. I didn't believe it, but now I do …"
Another constable shook his head and said, "Li Mu is handsome and capable. He is highly regarded by Constable Zhao and the County Lieutenant. His future is limitless. We can't be envious of him …"
Li Mu's hearing was very good. The words of those people entered his ears without missing a single word.
He was a little depressed and said with a sigh, "They all said that I'm with you because of your money."
Liu Hanyan said, "Isn't that the case?"
"Shallow. Do you think I'm Zhang Shan who only has eyes for money?" Li Mu looked at her and said, "I like you because of your knowledge, gentleness, generosity, kindness, consideration, independence, talent, beauty, and dignity …"
"Do you also say the same to those prostitutes?" Liu Hanyan glanced at Li Mu, but her wrist involuntarily wrapped around his.
The Yunyan Pavilion would officially open in two days. She had nothing to do, so she held Li Mu's arm and followed him all the way to the county yamen.
A few constables gathered the prostitutes in a room and removed the female ghost's charm on them.
After a quarter of an hour, these women came out of the room. Although their faces were a little pale, their eyes were less rigid and more lively.
Several women came over and bowed to Li Mu, gratefully saying, "Thank you for saving us. If it weren't for you, we would have been bewitched by that evil ghost for the rest of our lives …"
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "I'm a constable. This is what I should do."
The brothel keeper of Spring Wind Pavilion was even more excited. She ran over and said to Li Mu, "If it weren't for you, our Spring Wind Pavilion would be finished. If you come to Spring Wind Pavilion in the future, you can order whoever you want. I promise you that I won't charge you a single cent …"
Li Mu was a little emotional. He never thought that one day he would be treated like Li Si in a brothel.
Then he felt the temperature around him drop, and a chill rose from his heart.
He said with a straight face, "There's no need for that."
The brothel keeper thought Li Mu didn't believe her, so she quickly said, "You can come over today. I'll let your favorite Qiaoqiao and Rongrong serve you together. Qiaoqiao, Rongrong, why aren't you coming over …"
Constable Zhao looked at the two women coming over and said to Li Mu meaningfully, "One is cold and proud, and the other is beautiful beyond compare. You really know how to choose …"
Liu Hanyan looked at Li Mu with a smile and asked, "So that's what you like. Between Qiaoqiao and Rongrong, who do you like more?"
This was a question of death with only one correct answer.
Qiaoqiao had a proud figure, while Rongrong was cold and arrogant. If Li Mu dared to say that he preferred the cold and arrogant one, he would have to sleep alone tonight.
He cleared his throat and was about to speak when the brothel keeper spoke first, "I think His Excellency likes Rongrong more. The first time he came, he took a fancy to Rongrong at first sight …"
Liu Hanyan looked at Li Mu and said, "I'll go back first."
Constable Zhao didn't understand. Li Si patted Li Mu's shoulder and said, "The devil is hidden in the details. You deserve it …"
When the brothel girls left the yamen, they looked at Li Mu reluctantly and said, "His Excellency, we'll wait for you at Spring Wind Pavilion …"
Li Mu could somewhat understand how Li Si felt before, but he didn't want this feeling. Just as he was about to chase after Liu Hanyan, a figure came from outside.
Commandant Shen walked into the yamen, holding a thick iron chain in one hand. On the other end of the iron chain was a woman with disheveled hair. Li Mu looked carefully and recognized that she was Madam Chu.
However, at this time, she was in a very sorry state. Her clothes were tattered and her hair was disheveled. Even her originally solid body was much more illusory.
The iron chain passed through her shoulder blade, making it impossible for her to turn into a soul and break free.
Commandant Shen looked at her indifferently and asked, "Speak, what is Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon's plot to come to the North County?"
Madam Chu stared at him fiercely and didn't say a word.
A smile appeared on Commandant Shen's face and he said coldly, "You won't speak, right?"
…
Li Mu walked out of the yamen's courtyard and could still hear Madam Chu's miserable screams.
He didn't expect that Commandant Shen, a gentle person, could be so cruel.
Even Li Mu couldn't stand the way he forced Madam Chu to speak and could only temporarily avoid him.
Constable Zhao followed him out and sighed. "Commandant Shen's parents and wife were all killed by Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon. His hatred for Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon is unimaginable …"
When the screams in the courtyard stopped and Li Mu walked in again, Madam Chu's soul was extremely weak and was on the verge of dissipating.
Commandant Shen glanced at Li Mu and said, "You haven't condensed your soul yet. Her soul power is useful to you. You can deal with it."
Li Mu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Commandant Shen."
It seemed that he didn't get any useful information from Madam Chu.
After all, Madam Chu wasn't in the Soul Realm and wouldn't be valued by Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon. She was ranked seventeenth among Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon's ghost generals, only slightly stronger than the eighteenth-ranked Green-faced Ghost.
Commandant Shen untied a gourd from his waist, raised his head and drank a mouthful of wine. Then he left alone.
Li Mu glanced at Madam Chu and didn't do anything. Even if he didn't do anything, this ghost's soul would dissipate in fifteen minutes.
The reason why Li Mu didn't do anything was that Madam Chu's Yin Qi was extremely pure and clear. Obviously, she hadn't killed anyone before the Spring Wind Pavilion case.
However, she still wanted to kill someone. Li Mu had the ability to save her, but he didn't plan to.
Madam Chu was lying on the ground and her soul was on the verge of collapse. She suddenly laughed.
Li Mu looked down at her and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Madam Chu's face showed a trace of sarcasm. She said, "I'm laughing at the ways of the world. Good people don't get good rewards while evil people sit firmly in the high court. You so-called government officials who make decisions for the people are just a group of people who bully the weak and fear the strong …"
Li Mu sneered and said, "You suck people's Yang Qi and want to kill them. What kind of good is that?"
Madam Chu's soul had dissipated to the extreme. She didn't answer Li Mu and used the last of her strength to shout, "Cui Ming, you'll die a horrible death!"
She closed her eyes and her soul was about to dissipate.
The next moment, a golden light entered her body and made her soul more solid.
Li Mu looked down at her and asked, "Who did you just say?"
