"Come here a few people, light the torches and stay here. The rest of you can leave. Don't forget to report to the official." Butcher Hu left the main room and found a random place in the yard to sit down cross-legged.

Let's talk about Chunwa's family. After the crowd dispersed, the family of three hurried to the village chief's house. The old village chief knew that they were coming and had already prepared everything.

After several people arrived, the village chief asked Chunwa's parents to put Chunwa on the kang. Then he took out a writing brush, dipped it in the cinnabar ink that had been mixed, picked up the pen, and wrote on Chunwa's forehead.

There are some unintelligible symbols.

After putting down the pen, the village chief picked up the small copper bell placed aside, told the two to keep an eye on Chunwa, put on his clothes and went out again.

Not long after, I saw the village chief walking into the yard while shaking the bell. From time to time, he turned his head and looked behind him, as if someone was following him.

The old village chief entered the house like this, walked slowly to Chunwa's side, swayed back and forth around Chunwa's body a few times, and muttered something in the air. Chunwa's parents vaguely heard something: "The fetus enters the heart at the speed of light, and the ghost is calm."

The essence quickly enters and stabilizes, the refreshing spirit quickly enters the body, the three souls and seven souls return to the body, and the demons and evil spirits cannot invade."

After sitting down together, the old village chief breathed a sigh of relief and put everything away.

"His second grandfather, Chunwa, it's settled now, right?" Chunwa's mother was a little worried when she saw that the matter was settled simply.

"It's done. Go back and let him have a good sleep. Don't catch the wind. It will be fine in two or three days. Okay, you can go. I'm sleepy, so I'm going to sleep first." The old village chief didn't look back.

He said, and after finishing speaking, he went into the back room to sleep.

Chunwa's parents looked at each other, both looking puzzled, but they had no choice, the village chief had gone to bed, so it was not easy to disturb them. They picked up Chunwa and left the old village chief's house.

After hearing this, the village chief was so frightened that he never dared to play near the big yard again? Until now.

"Huh? Nothing was developed at that time. The government went to investigate, but nothing came out. They closed the case hastily and took the corpses away. In the end, there is still no explanation." The village chief's eyes were filled with tears.

In despair? It seems that the big courtyard in the middle of the village has caused a lot of trouble to people over the years.

"Uncle? Don't worry. We will definitely solve this matter for you. Can you tell me more? Has anything else happened in this yard?" Shen Wanshan quickly comforted the village chief. What if there is something wrong with such a big man?

what to do.

"Well, as we get older, it's normal to sigh. It doesn't matter. I understand what you mean." The village chief sighed again, "Not long after, my second grandfather and the butcher Hu died inexplicably.

The rest of the people who had entered the yard also left this world in different ways. People were panicked for a while. People quickly invited a Taoist priest from outside. The Taoist priest set up an altar at the entrance of the yard and performed the rituals for opening the altar.

, I did it for nine days in total, and on the last day, as soon as the Taoist priest put down his copper coin sword, he fell to the ground, bleeding to death from his seven orifices."

"The Taoist priest was a wild man who traveled all over the world, so it was okay to die. People found a place, dug a hole, and buried him. The remaining things were placed in my second grandfather's house. Since then, everyone has avoided it.

I walk around the yard, but there are always those kinds of ghosts who died unjustly. No, one just died yesterday. He was thrown at the door of that house with a thud in the middle of the night. Now they are preparing for the funeral. The corpse is really hard to see."

"Someone died again. Can you take us to see what the corpse looks like?" Shen Wanshan knew that there must be something weird here, so he decided to mind his business.

"Okay, come with me." The village chief dismissed the others and led Shen Wanshan and his party into the village. He turned two corners and came to a house. He approached and looked up. Sure enough, there was a white hanging hanging on the door. The dark word "Dian" on the lantern is particularly conspicuous.

Apart from the two lanterns, there were no other extra white decorations in this house. It seemed that this house was not very wealthy. Shen Wanshan took a look at it and followed the village chief into the yard of the house.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard bursts of crying. There was a mourning hall set up in the yard. A coffin was parked steadily in the mourning hall. There were two stools underneath to carry the coffin. Here, lift the coffin. The name of this stool is called the Wealth Stool. There is a saying about this stool, which I will not explain in detail here.

In front of the coffin, several people wearing sackcloth and mourning were kneeling in front of the coffin and crying hard. Some were crying for their grandfather, some were crying for their husband, and some were crying for their father.

Several people were crying so sadly that they didn't notice anyone coming to the door. The village chief quietly walked over and patted one of them on the shoulder. The man was stunned for a moment. When he turned around, he realized it was the village chief and quickly wiped away his tears and stood up.

The village chief whispered a few words to him, and the man glanced sideways at Shen Wanshan and his group, and nodded slightly.

The village chief walked back to Shen Wanshan: "Okay, young man, the eldest son of this family agrees that you can see the old man's body, but be careful."

"Yes, I understand." Shen Wanshan nodded and led the three people towards the coffin.

When several crying people saw four strangers approaching the coffin, they stopped crying and looked at Shen Wanshan's actions with tearful eyes.

Shen Wanshan first walked around the coffin and gently touched the coffin with his right hand. The old man's family thought that Shen Wanshan was just touching the coffin to express condolences, so they were not alert and prepared to continue crying. Who would have thought that Shen Wanshan Shan fingers pressed the gap between the coffin board and the coffin body, and the force from his calf was transmitted to the waist, back, and finally to the arms. With a "click", the coffin board was opened by Shen Wanshan. , and was thrown aside by Shen Wanshan with a "bang" sound.

Everyone present was stunned. Master Qi and Master Jiu were okay, but Tang Fei behind him was the boss with his mouth open. He really didn't expect that Shen Wanshan, a middle-aged and old man, would have such great strength.

In fact, it's quite normal. Tang Fei is just a new young man who has been with them for less than a week. His understanding of these three middle-aged and elderly people is only a little bit superficial, and that little bit of knowledge belongs to the Intelligence Department. It was obtained by him with the help of nine cows and two tigers.

The family members were stunned on the spot. They wanted to go up and stop Shen Wanshan, but Shen Wanshan's strength frightened them, so they still knelt on the ground, silently saying to the old man not to blame, and the old woman even more so. It was so terrible that when my wife's coffin board was lifted, she fainted immediately. People rushed to rub their foreheads and beat their backs to save the old woman.

Let’s not talk about what they did, let’s talk about Shen Wanshan. After opening the coffin board, he peeked inside. After the first glance, he didn’t want to take a second look. He died so tragically that most of his face was skinless. Yes, it looks like the mark was torn off by something.

Look at the body again, let alone see it. There is not a single piece of flesh on the whole body that is intact. All the skin and flesh are turned outwards. You can clearly see the bones inside. Even the belly is a little better and shriveled. Shen Wan Shan stretched out his hand and touched his stomach, feeling something was wrong: "Is there anything in this old man's stomach?"

"We found someone to take care of it, because it was even uglier than this when we first discovered it. It was disemboweled and all the organs in the stomach were gone. Oh, my dad..." The eldest son The more he talked, the more uncomfortable he became, and finally he fell to the ground and cried again.

"It's interesting. What kind of thing is it to torture people like this? It's getting more and more interesting. I'll take care of this matter." Shen Wanshan patted the coffin, went around to the other side, picked up the coffin board, and started again. Put it back on the coffin.

"If you want to take care of this, don't forget that we have other things to do." Tang Fei said quickly. He had no intention of taking care of this matter now. The first reason is because it is too scary, and the second reason is because they are here. The purpose here is not for the things here...

"It's okay to postpone those things for a while. We have time anyway. I have to take care of the things here no matter what. This old man can't just die. Village Chief, we will live in the haunted yard at night. I want to Look, what kind of monster is that thing that is working for the tiger?" Shen Wanshan patted the coffin again, turned around and strode toward the door.

"Hey, you." Tang Fei was furious, wasn't this sincerely causing trouble?

"Tang Fei, I know you are timid. It's okay. I'm protecting you. I guarantee that nothing will happen to you. Besides, if you really can't do it, you can just drive away. It doesn't matter to us, right? When it comes to merit, all the credit belongs to you, how about it?" Master Qi came closer to Tang Fei, put his arm around Tang Fei's shoulders, and said with a smile.

"Who said I'm afraid? Just go. There's nothing to be afraid of. I just want to see what's there." Tang Fei snorted and ran out. Master Qi smiled: "Hey, that's right. , Village chief, prepare torches soon and place them around the yard. It’s a bit dark at night, hey, I need some lighting.”

"Oh, okay, if you have any needs, just ask." The village chief nodded. Although he didn't know what it was, he still listened to Qi Ye's suggestion.

"It's gone for now, Lao Jiu is leaving." Master Qi dragged Master Jiu and left the house, leaving only the village chief who was stunned and the old man's family members who didn't know why.

After Shen Wanshan saw the old man's body, he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, so he made up his mind to take care of the affairs of the village. Naturally, no one else had any different opinions, except Tang Fei.

Even if Tang Fei didn't want to live in that courtyard for a few days in order to complete the mission, he should not forget that there was Master Qi beside him. Master Qi walked up to him, put his arms around his shoulders, and stimulated him with a few simple words. Tang Fei swallowed Unexpectedly, he walked towards the courtyard in the center of the village out of anger. Who knew that as soon as he approached and pushed the door open, a stench hit his face. Tang Fei didn't pay attention and was choked and coughed violently.

"Do you really want to go in?" Master Qi looked at Tang Fei standing at the door of the courtyard with a smile, coughing incessantly, with a somewhat mocking tone in his tone.

"You have nothing to do with me." Tang Fei walked aside, leaned against the wall and began to cough, which became more and more severe.

"Okay, stop making trouble." Shen Wanshan patted Master Qi on the shoulder. Master Qi smiled at Shen Wanshan and came behind Shen Wanshan.

Shen Wanshan looked up at the courtyard, then at the walls on both sides, and stretched his hand back: "Compass."

"Oh" Master Qi hurriedly ran to the entrance of the village, drove the car not far from the compound, jumped out of the car, and put the compass in Shen Wanshan's hand. Shen Wanshan took the compass, stood in the middle of the gate, and fiddled with it. He checked the compass, and after a while, Shen Wanshan raised his eyebrows and said: "Directly south and north, the owner of this courtyard is really powerful. Even the emperor's palace in ancient times was slightly to the side, so he didn't dare to face it directly. South and north. This means one thing. Either the owner of this family has a higher status than the emperor, or he just has no brains. Now it seems that he has no brains." After Shen Wanshan finished speaking, he put away the compass and took a step forward. Entered the courtyard.

The courtyard is a typical courtyard building with three entrances. There is no screen wall opposite the gate. It seems that this family is really stupid. There was a saying in the past that the screen wall facing the gate in this house can prevent ghosts. Because it is said that ghosts cannot turn corners and will not go forward when they encounter the shadow wall.

Shen Wanshan looked inside the yard and smiled: "It's interesting. You guys should move all your things down. You may have to live here for a few days. Prepare your things and have dinner later."

"Yes." Master Qi can be said to be the person who listens to Shen Wanshan's words the most. As soon as Shen Wanshan finished speaking, he immediately ran out of the yard to move things in the car. Tang Fei coughed for a while and felt that his throat and nose were full. , I ran out and went to the car to move things with Master Qi.

Shen Wanshan and Jiuye wandered around the courtyard. They wanted to see what was special about this courtyard. However, after wandering around, both of them were a little disappointed. This courtyard was ordinary. It's no different from other people's yards.

The old man worked very quickly. In a short time, all the necessities in the car were moved to the yard. A small pot stand was also set up. Tang Fei didn't know where he got the dry firewood and put it on Under the small pot, I took out a lighter, lit a few pieces of paper, and put them into the pile of dry wood. Slowly, the fire started.

Seeing the fire burning, Tang Fei smacked his lips and asked, "Don't be in such a hurry to eat, what time is it?"

Shen Wanshan raised his wrist and glanced at his watch before replying: "It's almost six o'clock. It's almost six-thirty when I finish, almost."

While adding vegetables to the pot, Tang Fei looked at Shen Wanshan with contempt: "I don't know who said he wouldn't eat just now, and now he is looking at the pot eagerly. Man, you are saying one thing and doing another." .”
