In the past, when Great Shanghai was not called Greater Shanghai, but Songjiang Mansion, there was a small fishing village of Hujiawa near Qingpu near the Huangpu River. The people here are simple, and most of them have the surname Hu, and they have a common ancestor. Although many people with foreign surnames moved in later, they were still dominated by the Hu clan. The villagers get along with each other day and night, have a harmonious relationship, and help each other to fish and live, although the days are hard, but life is peaceful and uneventful.

Suddenly, one year, the old Hu family who fished in the village gave birth to a big fat boy, which was a great joy for the whole village. Because the old couple is kind and charitable, although they are nearly half a hundred years old and have no children and no daughters, they also live a good life. The old couple has suffered for half their lives, but they have a son when they are old, and while thanking their ancestors for blessing and God opening their eyes, they take care of this hard-won child to the extreme. Although this kid has been pampered since he was a child, he is from a poor family, and no matter how pampered he is, he is not as stubborn as the son of the rich man's family in the town. On the contrary, although this child can't read books, he loves martial arts, often plays with guns and sticks, and apprentices everywhere.

When he was a little older, he went to take the martial arts exam, and after failing for many years, he actually passed the township exam for the first time and became a well-known martial arts person. Since then, the ** family has become a big family in Hu Jiawa in one fell swoop, and Hu Juren also married a daughter-in-law who was 28 years old because of his fame. Although the age difference between the two is 10 years, Hu Juren loves his daughter-in-law very much, and the old husband and young wife respect each other like guests, and envy many neighbors.

Maybe it's the inheritance of the Hu Ju family, or maybe the body was broken when he practiced martial arts when he was young, and the two still have no children. Even if you seek medical advice from many parties, or if you eat fast and pray for Buddha, it will not have the slightest effect.

Hu Juren slowly put down the idea of having an heir, and turned his mind to business. Don't look at Hu Juren's ability to study, but he is very talented in martial arts and business. Soon, his business spread across the banks of the Grand Canal, earning a lot of money and employing many helpers.

In this year, a young man surnamed Chu was introduced to Hufu. After a little consideration, Hu Juren decided to hire him. This young man is not only handsome, diligent in his work, but also very clever, very popular with Hu Ju, not only to mention his way of doing business, but also to slowly entrust him with the big and small affairs of the family.

Hu Juren's business is huge, and there are many boundaries on both sides of the north-south canal, and most of them are not at home. Hu Lao and his wife died early, and the heavy responsibility of the family fell on Hu Juren's daughter-in-law. Fortunately, with the help of the descendants surnamed Chu, they will not mess up. The relationship between the two people also warmed up rapidly, although they didn't do anything ugly, but the daily intimacy was naturally rumored in the eyes of others.

When Boss Hu came back from going out, someone with good deeds told him that the hat on his head had been green several times during his absence. Hu Juren was furious and beat the informant severely, expressing his firm belief in the innocence of his daughter-in-law, and also believing that the descendants surnamed Chu were not ungrateful and untrustworthy.

But not long after this incident, Hu Ju ** actually had joy. After the child is born, the mother is tired and causes premature birth. If it weren't for the midwife's skills, I am afraid that it would be a human tragedy with one corpse and two lives. When the girl was five years old, there were good people to provoke, saying that the girl's eyebrows and eyes were neither like her mother nor her father, but more like the descendants of Chu. He also said that the child was not born prematurely at all, but was born at term, or the body was so strong, and he didn't have any problems when he was more than five years old.

After going back and forth, Hu Juren really became suspicious. According to full-term, the time when his daughter-in-law conceived the child was actually a few months when he was away. Hu Juren went down to ask his daughter-in-law in a rage, and beat her up violently. How do you know that the daughter-in-law insists that the child is his, and she is innocent. Hu Juren had no evidence and could not make a rash assertion, so he had to give up. However, this thorn in my heart is getting deeper and deeper, and the relationship between the two people is getting more and more stiff. treats the children either beating or scolding, and treats the daughter-in-law more and more coldly, preferring to sleep in the willows than touch his wife for half a point.

The surname Chu felt sorry for the housemother, and often spoke comforting and enlightening, but he didn't expect to completely open the heart and lungs of Hu Juren's daughter-in-law.

After a long time, Hu Juren naturally noticed it. But for the sake of face, he pretended not to see it, but he became more and more fond of the descendants surnamed Chu, and often took him to talk about business with him.

The end of this year is approaching, Hu Juren is busy with business, he deliberately put on the surname Chu Housheng, and traveled through various business places by boat. A lot of goods were transported back and forth, loading and unloading goods at each place, and the surname Chu was tired and tired.

When he got on the boat at a ferry, Hu Juren suddenly remembered that there was a note for an account left at home, so he sent the descendant surnamed Chu to get it from his wife in the starry night, and he waited for him to come back on the ferry.

After returning to Hufu alone, he met the drunken daughter-in-law of Hu Juren, who was naturally dry firewood, and tossed for most of the day despite exhaustion, and then took the note and rushed back. That night coincided with the night rain and cold wind, the surname Chu was exhausted, and he was exposed to the cold in his body, and he had a high fever at dawn, and he died in less than two hours after being sent home.

Hu Juren used a little trick to remove the person who cuckolded him, how to look at the two women in the family when he returned to his home, one big and one small, was not pleasing to the eye. It happened that his mother-in-law was visiting relatives during the New Year, so he counted the ugly things her daughter did in front of the old man, and the voice was so loud that his wife in the kitchen was ashamed to hear it, and he actually committed suicide by hanging herself with a ruthless heart. Before he died, he did not forget to leave a letter insisting that although he was sorry for Hu Juren, the child must be Hu Juren, and hoped that he could treat his flesh and blood well.

Hu Juren naturally didn't believe it, he still abused this girl often, died early, and was buried near a locust tree by him, and he didn't even give him a chance to be buried with his mother. Fortunately, the retribution of the heavenly cycle was not happy, and at the end of the second year, at the ferry of that year, Hu Juren didn't know who pushed him from behind when he got on the ferry and fell into the river. Everyone around him knew his notoriety, and no one would help him, so he drowned in the canal. Later, it was rumored that the person who pushed him behind his back was the father of the descendant surnamed Chu.

……

When everyone heard this, although they felt that Hu Juren deserved to die, what did this have to do with the strange things in Chu Yigong's family?

Wang Mengxiong looked at the bound subordinate on the ground, and inadvertently swept everyone's faces, and said slowly: "This subordinate is surnamed Qin, and he learned the art of puppet soul fixing in his early years. It is said that this technique can summon and control the Yin with a few bones and a puppet wooden man. Ask the Yin to do what he tells him to do, and he can also attach to the Yin and monitor his every move.
