Xue Huan saw the white ghosts in the courtyard, but Lu Lingfeng chased them out but found only a few white cats, so Xue Huan was afraid, and Lu Lingfeng asked Xue Huan to stay with him at night.

A Cui, the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Orange County, was looking in the mirror at night, but unexpectedly saw a ghost in the mirror. A Cui died tragically the next day. Lu Lingfeng and others received a report. The method is the same as the previous ten cases, the murderer should be one person. The wealthy businessman scolds the county government and others as waste. Lu Lingfeng and the wealthy businessman agreed to solve the case for seven days.

The maid A Cui described what she saw with her own eyes last night was a white ghost in red clothes. Xue Huan said that it was the same as what she saw in the Hall of Living Beings. Lu Lingfeng denied this statement. The county magistrate learned about the seven-day appointment between Lu Lingfeng and the wealthy businessman, and came to confirm the matter with Lu Lingfeng. Lu Lingfeng did not deny the matter, saying that if he did not solve the case, he would resign himself, which made the magistrate very happy and looked forward to seeing Lu Lingfeng’s speech Officer leaves Orange County.

Lu Lingfeng asked people to post a notice to show that the murderer had been caught, and then pretended to be the murderer to parade in the street. Sure enough, he saw a suspicious man among the onlookers. Lu Lingfeng hurriedly chased after him and cooperated with Xue Huan to chase, and finally let the murderer escape. As the county captain, Lu Lingfeng tried his best to arrest the murderer and convince the people. The people in Ju County suffered from frequent headaches due to severe miasma, and the people's livelihood was withered. work.

Lu Lingfeng noticed someone outside the window at night, but he chased out of the yard but found no one. When he was looking at the attic yard, he saw Zhai Liang coming to the pharmacy to check the medicinal materials. Feeling that Zhai Liang was suspicious, he asked a few questions. Lu Lingfeng was concentrating on investigating the case, but the county magistrate arranged for him to pay taxes, build dams and other trivial chores, but these were also Lu Lingfeng's own work, so Lu Lingfeng had to accept it.

On this day, Lu Lingfeng came to Zhai Liang for acupuncture treatment with a head disease. During the period, he asked people about the head disease. Zhai Liang said that the head disease of the people was caused by miasma. More than 30% can be cured, more than 30% can be maintained through treatment, and the remaining 30% will die. Zhai Liang's uncle, Meng Lang, was very skilled in traditional Chinese medicine and was praised by the people, but unfortunately he passed away before writing the book on the treatment of head diseases. Lu Lingfeng wanted to worship in the attic where Meng Langzhong wrote and refined medicine, but Zhai Liang refused.

At night, after Xue Huan fell asleep, Lu Lingfeng talked about the attic at night, and found Lao Meng's tomb on the second floor of the attic, and saw a scene that made Lu Lingfeng feel terrified.

The next day, the seven-day period had come, and Lu Lingfeng brought all the catchers to the attic in the backyard of the Hall of Living Beings to catch the murderer. When Zhai Liang heard about this, he came to block it, and Lu Lingfeng broke into the attic regardless of the block. Although the people in the attic had disappeared, they still found the red-clothed and white-haired ghost outside the attic. Taking off his white hair and mask, Zhai Liang recognized that this person was Liang Sanqi, who was originally a thief. Old Meng helped him heal his broken bone. Lu Lingfeng realized that although Zhai Liang prevented himself from coming to the attic, it was not Liang Sanqi's accomplice, but because the grave in the middle of the attic was afraid of being discovered. Liang Sanqi admitted that he had murdered twelve women, but he was unwilling to tell the twelve women where their heads were.

The relatives of the deceased learned that the case had been solved and came to vent their hatred on the murderer Liang Sanqi's body. The wealthy businessman wanted to complete the seven-day contract and swallowed the stone, but was stopped by Lu Lingfeng. Lu Lingfeng said that the whole body of the deceased would be returned as soon as possible, and the people kneeled to thank Lu Lingfeng to find out the truth.
