Section 294, Strange Inheritance [Part 1]
After Liu Shoucai came back, he looked depressed. Badou and Xiaobai thought that Liu Shoucai had a quarrel with Chen Aotu, so they hurried over to comfort him.
"Liu Shoucai, you also know that Old Chen's bad temper is. We must not be bothered by those people. Those people have thicker skin than the base of the city wall, so we should not be angry!"
"What are you thinking? How could I get angry with him? I just saw Fang Bei."
Liu Shoucai was so amused and laughed by Xiaobai's words, but he still told them about Fang Bei. After listening to Liu Shoucai's explanation, Xiaobai and Badou both showed contemptuous eyes.
"Then Fang Bei is so brainless. He actually did all the bloody things. He really convinced him."
"Oh! You guys, am I too cruel? If I hadn't driven him away, these things wouldn't have happened."
"This has nothing to do with you. It's his own choice of the path, it's his own problem. You are not his parents, masters, relatives, etc., so you have no responsibility to deal with him. Besides, he is an adult, not a child. He has a brain to judge right and wrong, so it has nothing to do with you."
"Yes, Brother Liu, it has nothing to do with you. Why do you have to sulk for someone who has nothing to do with you? We just don't go to see him in the future. Besides, we have nothing to do with him either."
"Oh! I know, but I feel depressed."
"In my heart? Haven't your heart been taken away by the man in black? What else can you feel?"
Xiaobai looked at Liu Shoucai in confusion, and Liu Shoucai glared at Xiaobai with anger.
"I am heartless, can't I sigh? Really, I'll take a pot without opening any pot, get out of the pot while practicing."
Seeing that Liu Shoucai had returned to normal, Xiaobai and Badou dispersed. As soon as Xiaobai and Badou left, Liu Shoucai also began to meditate and practice. Although he did not need any practice now, it was necessary to consolidate it.
For several days, Liu Shoucai never left the house and seemed to have been a otakus. Until the afternoon of the weekend, Xia Xiaojiu called Liu Shoucai.
"Liu Shoucai, I'm out for a trip again. Guess where I am now?"
"Tell me! Is there something that cannot be solved again?"
Xia Xiaojiu would call Liu Shoucai every time she traveled, so when she called, Liu Shoucai knew that something must be happening again.
"Haha... You are so smart. I have encountered something strange. The people here are very strange. Every night when they go to bed, they will burn paper money in the cottage. Because a young daughter of a family forgot to burn paper money, she died at home the next day.
The girl died so scary. Her eyes were staring at the beams of the room. Everyone here said that she had encountered a ghost. I felt so scared. Can you come and help them see it?"
"Okay! I have nothing to do at the moment. Give me the address and I'll pack it up later."
When Xia Xiaojiu heard that Liu Shoucai was about to go over, she immediately became happy. She quickly sent Liu Shoucai a detailed address. After reading the address, Liu Shoucai went to find Xiaobai and Badou.
"Xiao Jiu has encountered something again, we are going to set off. This time we are facing some ghosts, so I don't need to remind you! I have enough of everything I should take. Don't use local materials if it is not enough at that time."
"Okay, I know, I'm verbose."
Xiaobai muttered, it didn't need to prepare anything anyway, and Liu Shoucai's words were just for Badou and Lao Er. After preparing the things, Liu Shoucai greeted Xiao Ni'er and took Badou and the others away.
Because Xia Xiaojiu said that the situation was relatively anxious, Liu Shoucai directly used teleportation technique. After arriving at the place where Xia Xiaojiu was, Liu Shoucai also frowned.
"Damn, the yin energy in this village is too strong, right?"
"I heard that most of the people in this village are women. Those men rarely live past forty years old, while those women live longer and usually die after being over 80 years old."
Liu Shoucai's words made everyone think. As soon as Liu Shoucai came here, Xia Xiaojiu rushed over immediately. Seeing Liu Shoucai, Xia Xiaojiu's heart was not as panicked as before.
"Liu Shoucai, you are finally here. I was almost scared to death last night. Several people have died here, and they are all because I went to the cottage at night without burning paper. I couldn't hold back to the cottage last night. Fortunately, I have a talisman here, otherwise the way you see me would be floating like your sister."
Xia Xiaojiu looked aggrieved, and Liu Shoucai was a little sweating. He would have known that he would not have come so quickly. This girl didn't have a look of fear, she was just acting coquettish.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, take us to see the dead! You can only know what's going on after seeing it."
Liu Shoucai pushed Xia Xiaojiu away and walked towards the village. Xia Xiaojiu didn't care. She smiled and took Liu Shoucai and the others to the family he lived in for the past few days.
"The girl who died last night was the granddaughter of this family. She is only over seven years old and is a very cute child. I played well with her before, but unfortunately she is now lying there and can never get up again."
Xia Xiaojiu shed tears as she spoke. She was a very emotional woman. The dead little girl liked to play with Xia Xiaojiu during her lifetime. Xia Xiaojiu seemed to see her when she was a child, so she treated the little girl sincerely, but she didn't expect that because of a negligence, the little girl died tragically.
Xia Xiaojiu introduced the identities of Liu Shoucai and Badou to the owner. The owner looked sad now, so he went to the scene after saying hello to Liu Shoucai and the others. Liu Shoucai didn't mind, he could understand the owner's sadness.
"It's her. Look at her face turned dark. Was she really killed by a ghost?"
"Well, she has a strong ghost energy on her body, and she was killed by the little ghost. When we arrived at the entrance of the village just now, we found that the yin energy in this village was very strong. I wonder if there are a large number of dead people buried in this village?"
"The inheritance customs of this village are very strange. As long as the people in the village die, they will be buried in the ancestral hall. The ancestral hall is in the center of the village. Do you think the resentment of the dead will not disperse for a long time, which will harm the villagers here?"
Xia Xiaojiu also learned a lot of things with Liu Shoucai, so she could tell a lot of things. Liu Shoucai nodded, and he also agreed with Xia Xiaojiu's perception.
"Let's go to the ancestral hall first."
Xia Xiaojiu took Liu Shoucai and Badou to the ancestral hall. No one spoke along the way. After arriving at the ancestral hall, Liu Shoucai almost bit off his tongue. No wonder the heavy yin energy in this village.
"Ah! How could these ignorant humans choose to bury people next to the ancestral hall? Isn't this what makes those people unable to reincarnate? Over time, the souls of those people will never be dispersed for a long time, so it is normal for them to become evil ghosts to harm people. I really don't know what to say about them. It's their own fault that they can do today."
Liu Shoucai shook his head as he said that Liu Shoucai had never had any good expressions for those ignorant humans. Xia Xiaojiu sighed. In fact, she guessed that this was the problem, but it still needs to be solved now, otherwise one day, this place will become an unman's land.
"Then what should we do now? We can't get all the people buried next to the ancestral hall again, right? I guess the people in the village wouldn't agree."
"Xia Xiaojiu, please bring your brain with you next time you go out? How is this kind of insulting method possible? People have been buried in for so many years, and it is impossible to dig it out again. Now, just do a good job of doing a ritual and then use the Tianhuo Talisman to eliminate the yin evil energy here. Of course, the villagers also have to take some talisman water. They have been eroded by yin energy all year round, so it is impossible not to use talisman water."
"Oh! That's it! That's quite simple, let's do it! I'll inform those people and leave the evil spirit here to you first."
After Xia Xiaojiu got the answer, she ran away immediately. As soon as Xia Xiaojiu left, Liu Shoucai immediately shook his head. He thought it was something big, but it seemed that he had thought too much before.
"Brother Liu, is it really okay to use a few talismans? The evil spirit here is too strong. Also, who told the villagers that they buried the dead here? I always feel that there seems to be a huge conspiracy behind this."
"Ba Dou, you have read too many novels! Okay, work! Try to eliminate the evil spirit here before dark. At night, the evil spirit here will spread again. We strive to handle the matter here within three days."
"All right!"
Seeing that Liu Shoucai's expression was very serious, Badou also knew that it was not the time to get angry, so he could only work by accepting his fate. Xiaobai and Lu Gui naturally used magic to clear away the evil spirits.
Xia Xiaojiu ran to the owner's house panting and told the owner what Liu Shoucai said. After hearing this, the owner looked incredible. She did not expect that the tragic death of her daughter was because of the dead people buried in the village.
"Oh! I have long felt that the custom in our village is wrong. When I went back to my parents' home, people from my parents said that our village was very evil. At that time, I thought they were just jealous of me and wanted to instigate relationships, so I said that if I could react earlier, maybe Xiaoya wouldn't have died."
Xiao Ya is the daughter of the owner who died. Seeing that the owner started to blame himself again, Xia Xiaojiu quickly said good things to comfort her. It was not until Liu Shoucai and the others came back that the owner turned around and went out.
"Liu Shoucai, how are you doing? Have those evil spirits been eliminated?"
"How can it be so fast? It takes three days to completely remove it, and it can only be removed when the sun is hottest at noon. However, at night, the evil spirit will rebound again, so we have to be careful these days. Remember, don't go out and run around the village at night to avoid any accidents."
"Oh! I understand, don't worry! Although I am brave, I still have a brain. I cherish my life very much."
Xia Xiaojiu smiled and repeatedly promised that Liu Shoucai saw that Xia Xiaojiu was not lying, so he ignored her and went directly to the room arranged by the owner to rest. Xiaobai and Badou naturally went to rest. Xia Xiaojiu felt a chill in the yard and was so scared that he hurried back to the room.
It was not until the evening that the owner walked back with a lonely expression. Xiao Ya's body had to stay for three days before it was buried. This is the custom here. If the old man dies, he will stay for seven days, and children are different.
"Homeowner, why are you back now? Where did you go in the afternoon?"
"Oh! I went to find a place for burial for Xiao Ya. I wouldn't let Xiao Ya bury it in the village ancestral hall. It's a place to harm people. How could I let Xiao Ya get entangled after she died because of that place? If I had known that it would be like this, I wouldn't have married back then. The customs of this village are really to kill people..."
The owner looked sad, and Xia Xiaojiu's sympathy began to spread again, so he kept comforting the owner. Liu Shoucai and Badou also heard the abnormality in the house, but because they were the opposite sex and the owner was a widow, the people in this village were very conservative, so Liu Shoucai and the others were not convenient for him to come out to comfort him, so they could only use Xia Xiaojiu's hand to comfort the owner.
At noon the next day, Liu Shoucai and Badou continued to fight against the evil spirits. Xia Xiaojiu and the owner had already notified the people in the village. The people in the village seemed to be very concerned about this kind of thing, but that's true. After all, this is the ancestral hall of their tribe, and the bodies of several relatives of their families were buried here.
"Are you not afraid of God's punishment when you do this? All the people in our village will be killed by you. Stop quickly and leave here..."
Suddenly, an old man in the crowd suddenly complained, and then rushed towards Liu Shoucai and the others. Seeing that the old man was so excited, Liu Shoucai stopped casting spells even though he was irritable.
"Old man, what are you doing? We are not harming people, we are saving people. If we continue to let these evil spirits survive, in less than three years, the people in your entire village will be tortured to death. Your relatives are buried here, but they will also trap their souls and cannot be reborn.
Over time, they became resentful, and they were all resentful that you had trapped them, so there were so many strange things happening in your village at night. Do you really want to live in such a frightened day?"
"Far, don't talk sweetly here. How can our relatives harm us? Don't lie. You scammers who are ignorant, get out of the village..."
The old man was very angry. He didn't believe Liu Shoucai's words at all. The villagers didn't say a word. They were not fools. They had known that there would be something wrong here, but the village chief kept stopping them, so they naturally didn't dare to say anything. Now with Liu Shoucai's help, they were eager to eliminate the evil spirit here.
"Old man, why are you so excited? These evil spirits harm others and yourself, and why didn't you tell the villagers about raising a little ghost? I don't know how much money you made with that little ghost."
"What are you talking nonsense?"
When the old man heard Liu Shoucai's sarcastic words, he immediately changed his face. The villagers began to talk about it below at this time. They all heard Liu Shoucai's words. At this time, their minds suddenly lit up. No wonder the whole village is so poor, and the village chief's family has always lived a wealthy life.
"Village Chief, why has your family been so rich? Our ancestors said that your family is a living by mud legs. Where does that money come from? Explain it clearly to us! Also, Master Liu said that you raised a little ghost, is it true? Take it out and show us!"
Some of the villagers were not against the village chief, so they immediately shouted out. Seeing that everyone was pointing at him, the village chief was ruthless and recited a spell directly. Soon, a dark little ghost appeared in front of everyone, and the people were so scared that they quickly retreated.
"I'll listen to it. If you are still as obedient as before, the village chief will not blame him for his past. If he doesn't know the truth, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Master Liu, right? This village chief originally wanted to save your life, but now it seems that there is no need to keep it."
The village chief became ferocious, which was inconsistent with his usual kind appearance. The villagers are now looking forward to Liu Shoucai being able to destroy the village chief's ghost. They now have only one idea, which is to leave this terrifying place as soon as possible. Today, the village chief's threat has left a deep shadow on the villagers' hearts.
"Hahaha... Old man, don't you think you are really ridiculous? The little ghost you raised is so weak, do you think it will be my opponent? Although the little ghost has brought you a lot of wealth, it is not powerful. Of course, for ordinary people, it is already very powerful. It's a pity that the person you are facing now is me."
Liu Shoucai's tone became very cold. What he hated the most was that others threatened him. The village chief was so eyebrow-less. He could deal with the evil spirits here. Could it be that he could not deal with a mere little ghost?
"Hmph! The little ghost I raised has absorbed the luck of the whole village. Don't dream of surpassing it, Xiao Hei, sucking all their fortunes."
The village chief sneered and then began to order the little ghost. After receiving the order, he rushed towards Liu Shoucai immediately. However, before the little ghost got close to Liu Shoucai, he was slapped away by Xiaobai.
"A mere little devil dares to be casual and presumptuous. I think you are really tired of living."
As soon as Xiaobai spoke, the people were immediately scared. They did not expect that a big white rooster would speak human language, so they all thought that Xiaobai was a monster. Seeing everyone looking at Xiaobai in panic, Liu Shoucai looked embarrassed.
