Chapter 235 The Guilty Greedy

Maybe it was a psychological effect, but Zhu Jixun felt that he was cold.

Thinking that ghosts would be afraid of men's masculinity, Qi Tao quickly gathered together with his companions and used twice as much masculinity to resist the attack of Yin energy.

Chen Lin, who had come along to eat melons, was being held by Zhu Jixun. Seeing that the person was trying to hide behind him, he felt a chill in his heart and shook off Zhu Jixun's hand.

"A grown man, who hasn't even seen that thing yet, is there any need to be so scared?"

Chen Lin was a man who held grudges, and because he couldn't afford to offend President Zhu, he couldn't put on a very nice face to please Zhu Jixun either.

Now he had another chance to ridicule Zhu Jixun, and of course he would not let it go.

When he heard Chen Lin's voice, he realized who he was pulling. Zhu Jixun was even more uncomfortable than Chen Lin, standing eight feet away from the person. He patted his body and spoke with disgust as if he was patting a dirty thing.

"Still mocking me, I want to say that you are a eunuch, you don't even have a bit of masculinity on you, don't let anything entangle you, those things, they like the feminine aura on you the most."

Zhu Jixun spoke angrily, looking at Chen Lin's face which had turned green with anger with a smile on his face. He made a heart with his hands for his good eloquence, but then he met the glaring eyes of Qi Tao and Meng Ying.

They realized that what he said to the human race was too unethical, so he quickly apologized and sincerely confessed to those big jars one by one. Seeing this, Qi Tao and his sister were no longer angry, but had a frown on their heads.

The Hua people value being buried in peace. Qi Tao wanted to bury all his relatives who died tragically, so he spent a lot of money to hire professionals to handle it.

After the police found some useful things, they walked up to Jiang Ning and asked.

"Comrade Jiang, do you know why those people trapped the Qi family in the jar?"

Jiang Ning opened the melon-eating system and looked at it, then nodded.

[When the farmer who had begun his plot to seize the Qi family's wealth risked his life to take all the property out of the Qi family, he had considered emptying it all. However, he simply couldn't carry anything out. He either nearly fell into a well or was nearly stabbed by a knife falling from the roof. The farmer was afraid and realized that he could only take a certain amount of property out. He had no choice but to give up and wait for the descendants of the Qi family to have children before he could take the property.]

Police officers are not allowed to have such metaphysical thoughts. It was difficult for him to ask, so Qi Tao asked directly.

"Could it be that this house really has ancestral spirits protecting it?"

He was still somewhat eager, and Meng Ying hoped so too.

How could they not feel sad when everyone in the family died tragically except for the two of them? It would definitely be great if all these deceased relatives were still alive, just in another form.

Qi Tao was thinking that if his ancestors were still alive, he would definitely offer incense to them and it would be even better if he could communicate with them.

"What are you thinking about? This is a normal world, not a supernatural story." Jiang Ning broke his fantasy.

[Those incidents of falling into wells and being hit by knives from rooftops are simply farmers feeling guilty and scaring themselves, attributing the accidents to supernatural phenomena.]

However, the Qi family members died tragically. Following the Taoist's advice, the farmer turned them into human pigs, symbolizing that their souls would be sealed in a jar forever, preventing them from causing any trouble. Even their descendants, who were sent to appease them, were treated the same way. Consequently, the number of large jars here increased, and the secret chambers dug were extended every hundred years or so.

[After the Qi family's property was almost completely taken, the descendants of the farmers discovered that by "sacrificing" a member of the Qi family, they would always become rich several times over the next thirty years. Fuelled by greed and unwilling to work hard, they naturally did not want to give up this path.]

[They were also afraid that it was the Qi family who owned this house that provided them with good fortune. No matter how much they coveted this valuable house, they dared not touch it.]

Qi Tao was now enlightened. No wonder they still wanted to continue this damn ritual even though everything valuable was gone except this house. It turned out that they still wanted to use the luck of their entire clan to support them.

How greedy!

Seeing that Qi Tao wanted to slaughter those livestock, Jiang Ning said in his heart.

[Don't worry, they're just overthinking it.]

[If they continue to spend money lavishly, there's a certain probability that they'll make a few fortunes within thirty years. This has nothing to do with metaphysics; it's purely a matter of probability.]

How illiterate and guilty are you to attribute all your good fortune to the Qi family?

Qi Tao also wanted to know.

This is the end of this story. Everyone, please come out first. The police will deal with the matter of the Qi family’s house later.

After coming out, Qi Tao received a call. Those evil people with the surname Qi who dared to come here to settle accounts with him were arrested by the police. He had a bad feeling that things were going to go wrong, so the clan leader and others who wanted to flee abroad were also arrested.

The police called to ask about the persecution of the Qi family for generations.

Qi Tao thanked Jiang Ning and apologized for the script's trickery on her, then rushed to the police station with Meng Ying.

They will have to watch those evil people pay the price for what they did!

The two left and the program recording ended. Jiang Ning moved around for a while, said goodbye to Lin Mian and the others, and got on the nanny car.

The internet was flooded with news about the Qi family. Netizens cursed those greedy animals, but also expressed regret that this era could not eliminate all the resentment for those members of the Qi family who died tragically.

Those animals, considered the mildest form of death in modern times, are being treated too lightly, aren't they? Their lives are not enough to atone for the sins of their ancestors.

Amidst the online curses, Qi Tao found the evidence of the evil deeds hidden by the livestock and handed it over to the police. While waiting for the final verdict, he hired someone to perform a ritual to pray for the souls of his relatives. After holding a funeral for them, he sent them to the cemetery. He and Meng Ying would visit them every once in a while and burn incense for them.

Because the animals had previously persecuted three people and had cruel motives to harm people, they were eventually sentenced to death.

Qi Tao and Meng Ying took this news to the cemetery that day, praying that their loved ones could rest in peace. If there is reincarnation, they hope that everything will be safe and smooth in their next life, and that they will not encounter these bad things again.

After finishing the recording of this episode, Jiang Ning focused her energy on "It's Your Turn", and occasionally went to other variety shows to eat melons and earn some money. Even when the director of the detective variety show strongly invited Jiang Ning to record again, she did not go.

First, the quality of the script is not very good, and second, Jiang Ning likes to go to new scenes and eat new melons.

While Jiang Ning was traveling around to eat melons and make money, Lu's company passed the official review and became the only company capable of mass-producing medical cabins.

As for the earthquake zone protection warehouse, due to its special nature, it was handed over to the official production.

However, even if it was just the authorization for the medical cabin, the opportunity Lu got was enough to make all the other major companies envious.

But they knew that Lu's family had won the favor of the government, so no matter how jealous they were, they dared not do anything. They had to establish friendly relations with Lu's family and wanted to follow Lu's family and get some benefits.
