Chapter Ninety-Eight: Searching for the Corpse

That night, Li Bing and Zhang Yuanshan stayed at the village director's house.

The next day, when the sun rose, the village chief's wife had already prepared breakfast. After a few people had breakfast, the village chief accompanied Li Bing and Zhang Yuanshan to a farmland far away from the west of the village. There, alone, there were several mounds of graves.

The villagers also rushed to hear the news, and a large group of people stood on the edge of the ridge and watched.

Zhang Yuanshan carefully looked at several graves, and suddenly found a mounds that had collapsed in half.

Several villagers, under the command of the village director, brought a few hoes and shovels, and they all held their breath and listened quietly to Zhang Yuanshan's command.

Zhang Yuanshan pointed to the grave and said, "Director, whose grave is this?" Can it be planed? ”

The village chief shook his head and said, "I don't know, I saw this tomb when I was a child, but I've never seen anyone come to worship." Anyway, this is a lonely grave, and it is also within the scope of relocation and cleaning, so you can dig it up. ”

Zhang Yuanshan smiled and said to the villagers: "Do it, be careful, there must be snakes inside." Fortunately, it's winter, and snakes are not likely to hurt people, so they should all be hibernating. ”

The villagers were a little nervous, took a few deep breaths, and began to carefully dig the mound.

As soon as the grave was dug open, a disgusting scene was seen: a corpse lying on its back in the grave, surrounded by many fragments of blackened human bones. The corpse was densely packed with hundreds of snakes, most of them motionless, and a few snakes slowly crawled around on the corpse when they saw the sunlight.

Zhang Yuanshan instructed the two villagers to carefully pick up the corpse from the grave with a hoe, wrap it around the corpse and follow a few snakes that were picked up, and immediately let several villagers stone it to death with a hoe.

When the body was turned over, the villagers immediately recognized that it was the missing Chen Ergou.

Chen Ergou's death was quite terrifying, his two eye sockets were empty, leaving only a pool of black blood, and it was estimated that both eyeballs were devoured by the snake. There were still many snake teeth gnaws on the corpse, and a snake was crawling out of a black bloody hole in his stomach, looking at the crowd.

The villagers hurriedly killed the snake, but they didn't expect another one to come out of their stomachs, and it wasn't until the villagers killed more than ten that they didn't see any snakes come out. Chen Ergou's black and swollen belly was like a deflated ball at this time, and it slowly deflated.

The villagers talked a lot, and saw Zhang Yuanshan burn a few pieces of rune paper and a few pieces of paper money, and threw them into the grave.

Zhang Yuanshan turned back to the village chief and said, "Director, you go find some diesel fuel, pour it into this tomb, and burn the scattered bones and hundreds of snakes together." ”

The village chief agreed, and ordered the two villagers to immediately find diesel fuel, pour it into the grave, and light the fire.

The fire grew stronger and stronger, and the villagers all saw a terrifying scene, hundreds of snakes made strange noises, constantly twisting and struggling in the firelight, and an unpleasant stench of burning filled the air.

The village chief instructed a few people to find a stretcher and carry Chen Ergou's body back to the village committee. Then, according to Zhang Yuanshan's description, many people began to search along the riverside.

Suddenly, a villager shouted, "Look, there's a big rock on the ice in the river over there." ”

The village director and Zhang Yuanshan looked at each other for a while, and said quietly: "Found it, let's go and have a look." ”

It was a large rock covered with moss, and since it was winter, the moss on it had turned black, so from a distance, it was a black boulder.

At this moment, the boulder stood alone on the ice in the middle of the creek, and the villagers wondered how the stone could freeze on the ice.

The village chief commanded a few strong villagers to smash the ice with a hoe, and the huge black stone rolled into the river with a thud and was never seen again.

More than a dozen villagers had already followed the instructions of the village chief, each took a bamboo pole, tied a curved iron hook to it, and began to line up in a row, and pulled it into the river in unison.

In a short time, the two poles hooked the same heavy object at the same time, and everyone worked together to slowly retract the poles.

After a while, a corpse surfaced, and the villagers recognized it as the missing Chen Fusheng.

Everyone worked together to drag Chen Fusheng, whose stomach was bulging and soaked so white that his whole body was disgustingly white, from the water to the shore.

When the two bodies were placed side by side in the courtyard of the village committee, the village chief dialed the phone number of the local police station, and after a while, several police cars drove to the entrance of the village committee.

After several policemen examined the body and made a record, after listening to the introduction of the village director, they looked at Li Bing's Zhang Yuanshan and Zhang Yuanshan with suspicious eyes.

After inquiring about the whereabouts of the two, the police officer in charge instructed the other person to drive to the Qixia Ancient Temple in Nanjing to find Zen Master Kong Ming to understand the situation.

More than two hours later, after receiving confirmation from Zen Master Kongming, Li Bing and Zhang Yuanshan, on the night of their deaths, did not sleep, but consulted Zen Master Kongming for a night of Buddhism. After ruling out the suspicion of the two, the police ordered the body to be sent to the funeral home, and took care of Li Bing, Zhang Yuanshan, and the village director, not to talk nonsense to the outside world, and not to publicize superstitious things everywhere, and then the team left.

The villagers were amazed and admired Zhang Yuanshan so much.

Zhang Yuanshan smiled and politely refused the villagers' request for him to help see the feng shui fortune telling, and was about to say goodbye to Li Bing and leave, that Chen Xudong quietly said to Zhang Yuanshan: "Master Zhang, I have a terrible thing, I implore the master to give me some guidance." ”

Zhang Yuanshan said: "You asked for our mobile phone number that day, not because these villagers didn't listen to my advice, but because you had something else to ask for, right?" ”

Chen Xudong nodded but shook his head and said, "Zhang Tianshi, I won't tell you the truth, the mu of wheat field where the coffin was dug up was originally my family's. ”

Zhang Yuanshan was very surprised, and at this time the village director introduced on the side: "Xudong's family is a famous family in our village, his father has been doing business outside for many years, making a lot of money, and he is the richest man in our village. His brother built his own transport car, and his life was very prosperous, and what was even more embarrassing was that Xudong was the only college student in our village. ”

Zhang Yuanshan was greatly surprised, and sighed: "No wonder I said that the tomb feng shui is so good, it should be for future generations, why is Chen Kunming an honest and authentic farmer." Then how could the coffin dug up in your family's field belong to his? ”

The village director said: "This field originally belonged to his family, but wasn't it because Xudong was admitted to university?" His hukou was also changed to an urban hukou, so the mu of land was recovered, and later distributed to Chen Kunming's family, who had a difficult family. ”

Zhang Yuanshan shook his head and sighed: "Young man, that mu of land is estimated to have been left by your ancestor, the years have changed, the grave is gone, and you don't know who that ancestor is." This shows that this tomb should at least be before the Republic of China, and now that the feng shui has been broken, your family will not be prosperous again. But because it is not destroyed at the hands of future generations, it will not bring any bad luck. You can rest assured, nothing will happen. ”

When Chen Xudong heard this, his face was a little stretched, and he asked Zhang Yuanshan to help him see if he could achieve a career in the future.

Zhang Yuanshan smiled and politely refused, and just wanted to go with Li Bing, he suddenly stopped, stared at Chen Xudong's face carefully, his eyes kept rolling, and he looked Chen Xudong up and down.

Zhang Yuanshan looked at it for a while, and looked at Chen Xudong so much that he was stunned.

After a long time, Zhang Yuanshan said to Li Bing: "Let's go, it's not too early, immediately rush back to Qixia Temple." ”

Chen Xudong was a little disappointed, and when Zhang Yuanshan passed by him, he whispered in his ear: "Young man, you have a bloody disaster. Don't make a noise about this, you can come to Qixia Temple tomorrow to find me. ”

Chen Xudong thanked him repeatedly, watched the two get into the off-road vehicle, and walked away.

On the way, Li Bing said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, I knew you would call him to come to you." ”

Zhang Yuanshan laughed: "Brother Li, if you don't come to this set, I wasn't going to pay more attention to him." Just now, I accidentally found that his Yin Tang was black and his eyebrows were angry, so he asked him to come tomorrow. ”

Li Bing said in surprise: "Won't it? Brother Zhang, did you just find out? I've been seeing it for a long time. ”

Zhang Yuanshan opened his mouth wide in surprise, staring at Li Bing all the time, and said for a long time: "Brother Li, you didn't fool me, did you?" You haven't studied Taoism, how can you see it? ”

Li Bing said formally while driving the car: "Brother Zhang, I'm not joking with you, I mean it." I saw it when he called us yesterday and that's why I left him my number. I didn't tell you, I thought you had already seen it, and I didn't understand much, so I didn't dare to say more. ”

Zhang Yuanshan thought for a while, laughed and said, "Brother Li, I understand, congratulations." This should be the aura of the Vermilion Bird, which has been completely transformed by you. ”
