Chapter 36

Due to rumors of evil ghosts, Zhangjia Village has formed a unique custom from May 1 to May 5 in recent years.

Closing the village.

Every household puts new door gods and lights candles.

Under the leadership of the majority of the villagers of Zhang, every day after the evil ghost bell disappears, they gather at the glutinous rice dumplings in the village at 11 o'clock to celebrate the Zhang family's ancestral plaques to burn paper to ensure safety.

Of course, in an atmosphere of fear, the entire activity should be kept as quiet as possible.

In the village where people were not seen during the day, after eleven o'clock, people were everywhere, but they didn't say anything between each other, which seemed particularly strange. After seeing this situation, those who went to Zhangjia Village to explore, they mistakenly thought it was a kind of evil sacrifice, so they added fuel to the fire and posted it online, which also became an important proof that Zhangjia Village is a ghost village.

The sacrifice is mainly composed of the Zhang family, and the surname Zhang is not ranked last.

A large cast iron incense burner was placed in the center of the gravel field. The paper money was burning, and high flames rose, illuminating the villagers of Zhangjia Village who were expressionless around him.

There is a merit box in front of the large cast iron incense burner. Another important part of the sacrifice is to donate money.

After the Zhang family finished the turn, they finally went up to the Yu family to donate money. Chen Jiangtao followed the three of the Yu family. As soon as he walked to the merit box, a villager who was guarding there snatched Yu Xu's father a stack of money into the merit box. He took out four or five pieces before stuffing it in. He cursed and said, "Take more money tomorrow, it's not pious at all. You who are not surnamed Zhang who are taking food and drink in Zhangjia Village should be taken away by evil ghosts!"

Yu Xu's parents swallowed their anger and retreated aside.

After the ceremony, a fat middle-aged man with a big belly stood in the middle and spoke in a low voice: "Tomorrow is May 4th, and evil ghosts will appear in the village. Everyone must be careful not to go out and speak less. I hope everyone can survive smoothly. I really don't want someone else in our village on May 5th."

Yu Xu leaned into Chen Jiangtao's ear and said, "This is our village chief Zhang Erfu."

The village chief said a lot of advice, and the others encouraged everyone to go to the sacrifice and donate more money.

Chen Jiangtao looked at the surrounding situation. The glutinous yard in Zhangjia Village was a rectangular shape with a circle of low walls next to it. There were openings to enter and exit in and out in three directions, but the wall in the north was blocked, and a few stone millstones were thrown under the wall.

"Follow me." Chen Jiangtao took Yu Xu over and erected a stone mill under the low wall in the north, and stuck it with a stone; then he went to a position in the east and south directions, and rolled a stone mill to stand up.

During the whole process, the villagers listened attentively to the village speech, but no one noticed them. After these were done, the village chief also talked about the final part.

Chen Jiangtao stretched out his thumb and little finger on his right hand, and clasped the other fingers tightly, forming a right angle. He approached the stone millstone in four directions and determined a central position. Chen Jiangtao picked up four small stones and placed a cross at that central position.

"The village committee has contacted the famous Taoist priest of Crystal Temple, and will hold a Dharma Assembly for our Zhangjia Village later." Village chief Zhang Erfusai looked at the villagers: "Everyone should donate money enthusiastically. After the Dharma Assembly, the evil ghosts may not appear again next year; everyone is safe and everything goes well, and spending money to eliminate disasters is better than being affected."

The villagers whispered and then dispersed.

Back at the Yu family, after Yu Xu's parents fell asleep, Chen Jiangtao called Yu Xu, Miao Li and Zhang Min into the house, but did not turn on the lights. He turned on the window and said to the three of them in the moonlight: "Tomorrow, Yu Xu will pull out the man who pretended to be an evil ghost and we will help him."

Miao Li and Zhang Min looked at Yu Xu in surprise: "Can you really catch that person?"

Yu Xu was actually not sure, but now that things have come to this point, he couldn't refuse, not to mention that this was originally a matter of their village. He glanced at Chen Jiangtao and said firmly: "Since I'm sure that that is not an evil ghost, I will do my best to catch him."

"You don't have to worry too much. I'll make some arrangements later just in case." Chen Jiangtao said, looking at the time, and then quietly took the three of them out.

When we arrived at the river beach by the village, we found a quadrilateral stone, and the four of us moved it back together.

Chen Jiangtao looked at the direction with his compass and stared at the time. When it was only one minute away from the minus, that is, 00:00, Chen Jiangtao asked the three of them to carry the stone with him and place it in a corner in the southeast direction.

Miao Li couldn't help but ask Chen Jiangtao: "What's the use of this stone?"

Chen Jiangtao pondered: "Back to the rocks, used to prevent any unexpected situations tomorrow."

At the same time, after all the classmates slept, Zhang Pengyuan entered a room in the resort hotel. Several people were drinking, playing cards and chatting. They were the people in the other two cars brought by Zhang Pengyuan.

"Hello Uncle Wang, hello Uncle Zhao!" Zhang Pengyuan greeted the two of them politely.

Two people who were in high spirits turned around, pulled Zhang Pengyuan over, and patted him on the shoulder kindly: "Big nephew, don't be polite, you mean the person we want us to catch tomorrow is the boy named Chen Jiangtao today, right?"

"Yes." Zhang Pengyuan nodded and said embarrassedly: "It's really not necessary to bother your two uncles for a little bit of my life."

One of the men wearing glasses asked cautiously: "Today I saw that boy had a luxury car to send him. Are you sure he doesn't have any special background?"

Zhang Pengyuan said affirmatively: "I have checked it carefully. Chen Jiangtao has no special background. He came from a village in Sanjiao Town."

Another thirties with a mustache said, "We will do our business according to law. You will call for a report tomorrow and say that someone in the village is engaged in feudal superstitious activities. We will go there and take people back to the station and keep them all night. It is not too difficult for this classmate. However, this kind of thing will not be an example."

"Okay!" Zhang Pengyuan looked at the mustache with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Wang, thank you for your hard work!"

After walking out of the room, Zhang Pengyuan smiled gloomyly: Humph, Chen Jiangtao, Chen Jiangtao, aren’t you talking about Feng Shui Bureau all the time? This time you really get into the bureau.

If Chen Jiangtao and others stayed in Zhangjia Village for five days, they would win, but they would be arrested if they were not yet on the next day.

Haha, I never do things I don’t know.

After deciding on Feng Shui with Shen Jiangtao, Zhang Pengyuan made a plan to choose the top ten terrifying places like Zhangjia Village, and then agreed to stay for five days to win.

After Chen Jiangtao and his group entered the village, Zhang Pengyuan asked someone to report that there was a feudal superstitious activity in Zhangjia Village the next day, and directly asked the police station staff who had a relationship with his family to take Chen Jiangtao away.

First, Chen Jiangtao lost after not staying for five days; second, he indirectly warned other students that Feng Shui is feudal superstitious and will be caught if he encounters it.

Zhang Pengyuan felt secretly happy: Fighting with me, Chen Jiangtao, what a thing? I won’t throw some red, yellow and blue on you, and I really forgot that I specialize in art-making pigments!
