Chapter 35

After burying the corpse, he lit incense and candles and burned paper money.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

"The 'flowing water absorbs life' situation has been broken." Chen Jiangtao looked at the tomb pit covered by the straw mat. He did not destroy the corpse with slaughtered flesh inside, as it would alarm the snake. Now, with Chen Jiangtao's ability, he can only temporarily break the Feng Shui situation and completely get rid of Zhangjia Village from bad luck. He can only find out all the situations before dealing with it.

The two of them packed up their things and were about to leave when they heard the sound of bells ringing from afar. Chen Jiangtao pondered for a moment, immediately shoveled some soil with a shovel, covered all the lit incense, candles and paper money, and then pulled Yu Xu to touch the place where the bell sound came.

Yu Xu was semi-paralyzed and kept trembling.

"Don't be afraid, this bell sound was made by man." Chen Jiangtao leaned over Yu Xu's ear to comfort him, but it didn't work. Yu Xu's whole body was shaking like a sieve.

Turning around the corner of an alley, Chen Jiangtao saw the black shadow appear again, drifting in the direction of the cemetery for a while, and then drifting back.

Seeing the black shadow floating in the air, Yu Xu couldn't help but scream in shock. Chen Jiangtao quickly covered himself: "Don't scream, that's a person, don't be afraid!"

clang…

Dang... Dang...

At this moment, the black shadow seemed to hear the sound, and the bells leaned towards the place where the two were.

"It's bad! Come here!"

Chen Jiangtao hurriedly took Yu Xu to a gatehouse in the alley. At this time, the moonlight was very bright, and the gatehouses in the countryside were not wide. The two of them hid there. As long as the shadows were close, they would definitely be able to find them.

The two held their breath and hugged each other tightly, trying to hide their bodies into the gatehouse. To ensure that, Chen Jiangtao also covered Yu Xu's mouth, for fear that he would make another sound at the critical moment.

The black shadows were getting closer and closer, and the sound of bells in their ears became louder and louder, and the cold sweat on Yu Xu's forehead dripped down.

clang…

Dang... Dang...

Sweat began to appear on Chen Jiangtao's forehead, and he began to count silently in his heart: "One, two, three..." He rushed out after counting ten. He had a shovel in his hand and Yu Xu had a hoe in his hand, so he could fight.

"six…"

When Shen Jiangtao counted to six in secret, he had already seen the black shadow leaning against the edge of the gatehouse. From the perspective of the black shadow, he would definitely not be able to see Chen Jiangtao and Yu Xu, but if he took a step forward, the two of them would definitely be discovered.

“Seven, eight, nine…”

Just as Shen Jiangtao was about to figure it out and was about to rush out with a shovel, the shadow retreated, and heard the bell ringing, and he actually turned around and left the alley.

Hearing the ringtone getting farther and farther away, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, let go of their tightly held hands, and sat on the ground to breathe.

Chen Jiangtao recovered a little and asked, "Yu Xu, when did the bell ring disappear in the past?"

Yu Xu's face turned pale and didn't listen to Chen Jiangtao's words. After Shen Jiangtao shook him a few times, he reacted and asked in panic: "What...what?...evil ghost?"

Chen Jiangtao patted his head lightly: "All evil ghosts have said that, that's a middle-aged man. I ask you, when did the bell ring disappear in the past?"

Yu Xu then understood and replied with lingering fear: "Around ten o'clock."

"Okay." Chen Jiangtao stepped out against the corner of the wall: "Let's follow us."

Yu Xu grabbed Chen Jiangtao and said frightenedly: "What else do you want to do? After he left, let's go home quickly..."

"This person has made the whole village uneasy in the past few years. Don't you want to know who he is? Where did he come from?" Chen Jiangtao asked in a low voice.

Yu Xu hesitated immediately. At this moment, his heart was pounding, his eyes twisting left and right, not knowing what decision to make.

"Hurry up, it's too late, don't let him run away."

Chen Jiangtao left first. When Yu Xu saw Chen Jiangtao go, he gritted his teeth and followed him again.

The two followed the sound of the bell, trying to lighten their paces and breathe deliberately and gently. The black shadow floated to the village head, paused for a while, turned left and right, and then headed northwest.

"This is really a human... it's a human being floating in the air..." Yu Xu asked in horror.

Chen Jiangtao pointed to the bottom of the black shadow: "Look, there are two thin things supporting it below. That must be a person. As for how this person can float in the air, I don't know."

Yu Xu looked carefully below the black shadow, and indeed he could see two thumb-sized things, which were not easy to find during the day, and it was even harder to see clearly at night. If it weren't for Chen Jiangtao's reminder and at first glance, the black shadow would have floated in the air.

The black shadow floated to a small wood in the northwest, and turned around several times, as if checking whether anyone was following him. Then, he heard a "puff" sound, as if a person farted.

Then the black shadow's body began to grow smaller, and then the black shadow fell to the ground.

Chen Jiangtao, who was close to him, saw clearly that he was indeed a middle-aged man. He was wearing something that could be inflatable, and the two thin things were two thin sticks similar to stilts.

The man took off his inflatable suit, folded the thin stick under his feet, walked into a bush, got on a black car parked there and left.

Yu Xu, who witnessed the whole process, completely believed in Chen Jiangtao. The evil ghost that came was clearly a person who was determined.

"Chen Jiangtao, what do you think this person wants to do? He pretended to be a god and scared our village for so many years." Yu Xu's tone stopped trembling, full of indignation.

"I don't know either, but he must have a purpose when he is so tired of pretending to be an evil ghost." Chen Jiangtao pondered: "This person likes to pretend to be an evil ghost. I will let you be a ghost-killing hero tomorrow."

"I? Ghost-killing hero?" Yu Xu was stunned.

After returning to Yu Xu's house, looking at the two people covered in dust, Yu Xu's parents and Miao Li, Zhang Min both asked where they had gone. Even if they went to the cemetery, they shouldn't have come back so late.

Yu Xu's mother said tremblingly: "After you went to the cemetery, the evil ghost's bell sounded and walked around the village several times. I'm really worried that you would be hit by the evil ghost."

Judging from Yu Xu's parents' fear expression, it was obvious that they did not believe the words Chen Jiangtao had told them before that "evil ghost" was a middle-aged man.

After all, this is an "evil ghost" who has caused Zhangjia Village for many years. With Chen Jiangtao's words, it will definitely not be dispelled.

Rumors opened their mouths, and they broke their legs when they refuted the rumors.

Now the Feng Shui Bureau of the cemetery has been broken by Chen Jiangtao. What we need to do next is to make the villagers believe that the sound of the bell is not an "evil ghost".

Such evil ghosts will lead to rumors of dead people and the consequences will be very serious, especially in such villages.

And seeing that middle-aged man was ready to play an evil ghost, the purpose was probably to create an atmosphere of selecting people by evil ghosts, and then take the opportunity to harm people on the rumored May 5th.

Chen Jiangtao looked at Yu Xu's mother and asked, "Auntie, please tell me about Yu Xu's birth date and horoscope."

"Birthday and Eight Characters?" Yu Xu's mother didn't know why Chen Jiangtao suddenly asked this, but she still told him.
