Chapter 303: Reappearance of the Soul-Suppressing Nail and Soul-Catching Chain
Zhou Junming watched his father pick up a shovel and walk to the ancestral grave. He looked around and was about to start working. He couldn't help but shout out excitedly.
"Uncle, please persuade my dad."
Seeing that his father ignored him, he said to Zhou Xinjun beside him.
But Zhou Xinjun walked over, took the shovel from his hand, and joined the grave-digging team.
"Master Qing, this soil has obviously been disturbed. Should we just start digging now?"
Zhou Xinjun poked the soft soil beside him with the shovel in his hand and was completely shocked.
Someone actually moved his family’s ancestral grave!
"Yes, be careful with the coffin inside."
"Okay, okay."
The two Zhou brothers started to take action as soon as they heard it.
"Are you a Taoist priest? Don't be a liar."
Seeing that his father and uncle were both attracted by the girl in front of them, Zhou Junming walked over and looked at Qing Yanrou with suspicion.
But when he accidentally met Chu Tingbai's cold eyes, he was so frightened that he stood there in a daze.
"Kid. Come over here and help."
When he heard his father's call, he felt relieved, picked up the shovel and ran to join them.
Just now, Zhou Xinyi thought that Qing Yanrou and Chu Tingbai were two liars, and his cousin was desperate and trying all kinds of help.
But when he saw the ancestral grave that had obviously been disturbed, he became furious. He, Zhou Xinyi, had lived in the village for a long time, and his ancestral grave had been dug up. Wasn't this too much of an insult to him?
And it also involved his nephew Zhou Junyan.
Zhou Junyan was a smart kid with good grades since he was young. He looked like he had the potential to be an official, but who knew he would encounter such a thing.
He unknowingly believed Qing Yanrou's words. The ancestral tomb was there anyway, and there would be nothing wrong with digging it up when the time came. He must persuade his cousin not to pay a penny.
The three members of the Zhou family dug for about half an hour, and then the shovel touched a hard place. It seemed that they had reached their goal.
"Stop, take two steps back, and give me the shovel in your hand."
Qing Yanrou stopped the three from continuing and took the shovel from Zhou Junming's hand.
When the three of them heard her words, they all took two steps back obediently, but stretched their necks to see what was there.
"I'll do it."
Chu Tingbai took the shovel from her hand, looked at the soil that was emitting black air with heavy eyes, held the shovel in his hand, exerted force with both hands, and shoveled away the soil on the side with one shovel.
The wisps of black gas floated towards him because of his action. Chu Ting didn't even blink and continued to dig up the soil beside him. The wisps of black gas disappeared without a trace just as they approached him.
Qing Yanrou looked at this scene and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. Even the resentment and evil spirits had gone away?
After a while, all the coffins buried underground appeared.
"hiss--"
After seeing what was inside, the three members of the Zhou family gasped in shock, their faces frozen with shock.
This was beyond their imagination.
This is the tomb of Zhou Xinjun’s grandfather. At that time, there was no cremation, so people were buried in dark red coffins.
Now all I could see was a thick iron chain on the dark red coffin. The chain was very long and wrapped around the entire coffin. In the end, the chain was even wrapped inside the coffin.
This man not only dug up his own ancestral grave, he even opened the coffin. Not knowing what happened to the body inside, the Zhou brothers were obviously anxious and worried.
However, they did not say anything to disturb Qing Yanrou and Chu Tingbai.
They looked at each other, and seeing the familiar iron chain, Qing Yanrou couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth.
I didn't expect to encounter the Soul-Locking Chain in this place, so there must be the Soul-Suppressing Nail as well.
The elders of the Zhou family have been dead for decades, and these soul-suppressing nails and soul-locking chains cannot be used to suppress the soul, so they have only one purpose - to nourish the instrument.
This is using a cemetery in a Feng Shui treasure land to keep an evil object. Once the evil object is created, the land will become useless, and the descendants of the cemetery used to keep the object will also suffer misfortune.
In more serious cases, the incense will be cut off directly.
The Zhou family has been having bad luck recently because this evil weapon is about to be cultivated, and the originally excellent cemetery is about to become a haunted house. Isn't this the case with his family now?
At Qing Yanrou's signal, Chu Tingbai put the shovel in his hand on the ground, accumulated spiritual power in his hand, and began to hold the soul-locking chain directly with his hand.
Qing Yanrou was no longer surprised to find that he used spiritual power instead of mysterious power. Even if he ascended to heaven on the spot one day, she would only sigh with emotion and would never be surprised.
“Clatter—”
His hand gripped the Soul-Locking Chain, making a crisp sound. The evil and negative energies on it were vying to enter his body through his palm.
Chu Ting didn't look away, not caring about them at all. His dark eyes were fixed on the soul-binding chain in his hand. He pulled his hand upwards with force, and the chain made a "clattering" sound again.
"Bang--"
The coffin, which already had a crack, suddenly opened up because of his force, revealing the white bones inside.
A thick, pure black soul-calming nail was inserted into the skull of the corpse in the coffin.
The other end of the soul-binding chain in Chu Tingbai's hand tightly wrapped around the corpse from head to tail.
The evil spirit, negative energy and resentment above were so thick that they were about to form substance. Even the three members of the Zhou family present felt that that area was obviously colder, darker and more terrifying than other places.
"Who the hell is this wicked person who did such a shameful thing? Our Zhou family has always been kind to others. Who is so lacking in virtue to do such a thing!!!"
Zhou Xinyi was so angry at the scene that he was shaking all over, his eyes were about to burst, and he was in extreme anger.
There are only him and his cousin left in the Zhou family. His cousin's family does business in Beijing. With the support of his cousin, his family also started a breeding business in the village. Since he has been in his hometown all year round, he often goes to the mountains to visit the graves.
But he didn't notice anything wrong with it for so long, and it caused injuries to his cousin's family. Zhou Xinyi felt extremely guilty.
"Xinyi, you don't have to blame yourself. I come back to visit the graves often, but I haven't noticed anything wrong. It's just that the person behind this is too insidious and cunning."
Zhou Xinjun looked at his cousin, a dark-skinned middle-aged strong man who was wiping away tears of self-blame, and began to comfort him.
Compared to Zhou Xinyi's face full of shock and disbelief, Zhou Xinjun was much calmer. He had made some mental preparations beforehand, so he was able to comfort him.
"These Soul-Suppressing Nails and Soul-Locking Chains have been buried for at least two or three years. The person behind them also knows some sorcery. It's normal that you didn't notice them."
Qing Yanrou took a look at the things inside and said to the Zhou family.
"Master, can you find out who harmed my Zhou family?"
"Can."
