Chapter 39 This House is Not Clean
The two came to the mass grave outside the city, where the air was filled with gloomy energy even during the day.
There are mounds of earth standing on the top of the hill. Some of them have wooden signs in front of them with some blurry words on them, while some of them have nothing in front of them.
Feng Zhi looked at the mounds and asked, "Are there corpses buried here?"
Su Nuobai nodded: "The oldest one is probably a few years old, and the youngest one is just born."
When she looked up, she saw some infant spirits peeking out from under the shade of the trees, looking at the two of them curiously.
"Brother, sister, are they relatives of someone?"
The older child shook his head: "No."
Su Nuobai looked at these children helplessly: "Why are you all staying here if you don't want to reincarnate?"
A group of infant spirits stared at her with wide eyes: "Sister, can you see us?"
They were so happy that they wanted to run out, but after running a few steps, they felt the scorching heat of the sun and quickly retreated to the shade of the trees.
Su Nuobai walked towards them and said, "You have stayed in the human world for a long time."
The oldest child was fifteen or sixteen years old: "We don't want to be reincarnated. Even if we were to be reincarnated, we would be abandoned and forgotten."
Su Nuobai looked at her. She had been dead for many, many years. She grew up little by little with the help of the yin energy here, and now looked like a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.
"You've been taking care of them all along!"
The girl nodded: "They were all abandoned by their families. They don't even have names."
Su Nuobai knew that these children had no names, and there was no record of them even in the judge's book of life and death.
No underworld officials will come to capture them, and no one cares whether they will be reincarnated.
No one will come to worship them.
These children were very young when they died, and they were ignorant and had no resentment at all. Even the evil ghosts disliked eating them because they would not increase their cultivation.
They have become the cleanest yet forgotten existence in this world.
"Did you play a trick on Doctor Song yesterday?"
"Sister, we are just too bored and want to hear him say something interesting. We know he is a good person." A little boy of five or six years old looked at her with a flattering face.
Su Nuobai touched their heads and said, "Sister will send you to reincarnate, okay?"
"Will we be abandoned again?" a group of children asked hesitantly.
Su Nuobai smiled and shook her head: "No. You will have a good home and meet parents who love you very much."
“Even though you may not be rich, you can still live a happy life.”
The eyes of the group of children are full of longing. They long to have a family, relatives, their own names, and they long to be remembered by someone.
"Sister, you won't lie to us?"
"No lie." Su Nuobai knew that these children had never been involved in a murder, and they occasionally teased people walking at night just to make people remember them.
All the children looked at the oldest girl.
The girl hesitated for a moment and then nodded: "Please take us to the underworld."
Su Nuobai opened the Ghost Gate with a wave of his hand. When they were queuing to enter the Ghost Gate, he recited the "Duren Sutra" for them to help them attain salvation.
In this way, they will surely have a happy and fulfilling life in the next life.
Feng Zhi just watched quietly from the side, and when she stopped chanting, the coldness around her disappeared.
"Are they all gone?"
Su Nuobai stretched and said, "Let's go. There won't be any naughty kids here wanting to hear stories anymore."
Feng Zhi followed her out of the cemetery. Turning around, he found that the originally eerie and terrifying place didn't seem so scary anymore.
When they came out, both of them used a trick. Seeing that it was still early, they simply rented a carriage to Shengjing West Market.
After getting out of the carriage, Feng Zhi paid the driver and took her forward.
"This house is quite far away. I just asked about it and have never been here."
Su Nuobai looked up at the West Market. Most of the people here were ordinary people, and it was even more lively than the East Market.
Ox carts, mule carts and the like can be seen everywhere, and the noise adds to the atmosphere of life.
Feng Zhi asked Su Nuobai to walk to the side and stood outside to prevent the crowd from squeezing her.
Su Nuobai walked in one direction, and the further he went, the fewer people there were.
By the time you get to the middle, you can hardly see any people.
This is not the quietest street in West City. On the contrary, it should be the most lively one.
But there are only a few people coming here, and those who do come here are in a hurry and walk by quickly.
As soon as Feng Zhi entered the street, he felt a little cool, even though the sun above his head was still very hot.
Su Nuobai stood at the door of a shop. The shop was covered with dust, but there were no cobwebs.
This is interesting. There is not even a living animal.
"Hey! Don't stand there, go away!" The owner of the shop next door saw them standing there and shouted anxiously.
Su Nuobai turned around and saw the boss waving at them.
She and Feng Zhi walked towards his shop, and when they reached the door, they saw paper figures placed inside.
I turned around and looked at the shop on the other side, which was selling coffins.
Wow, both of these companies have become one-stop services.
When she looked more closely, she saw that the whole street was full of paper-making shops and coffin shops.
Only the shop with the best location was vacant.
The boss quickly asked them to come in and talk: "How dare you be so bold to stay anywhere? Are you trying to save your life?"
Su Nuobai looked at him with a smile: "Boss, we heard that there is a shop for sale here, so we came to take a look."
Boss Zhou was stunned when he heard this: "Are you talking about the shop next door?"
Su Nuobai nodded: "Yes!"
Boss Zhou looked at the two of them and asked, "Aren't you locals?"
Feng Zhi quickly said, "We just arrived in Shengjing not long ago."
Boss Zhou sighed and said, "In that case, I would like to advise you two not to buy the shop next door or the house behind it."
Feng Zhi looked at Su Nuobai, then asked, "Boss, why can't I buy it?"
Boss Zhou looked around and saw that there was no one around and whispered, "This house is not clean."
Feng Zhi looked unconvinced: "No way!"
Seeing their disbelief, Boss Zhou quickly said, "Really? This street used to be very busy, and the shop with the best business was the one next door."
"But for some unknown reason, this family suddenly died overnight, and their deaths were extremely horrific."
Feng Zhi asked knowingly, "Has the murderer been caught?"
Boss Zhou shook his head: "No, the two neighbors didn't even hear any sound."
He looked around fearfully, and finding nothing unusual, he continued, "Since then, there have been strange noises in this house."
"At first, no one paid much attention to it, thinking it was just a stray cat or dog. But then the two shops next door also became unlucky."
"My family members kept having accidents, either falling ill or encountering disasters."
