The group left the mansion, found a carriage on the street, and headed towards the mass grave.
At this moment, the mass grave is at noon, when the yang energy is at its peak.
Even standing here, one still feels a sense of gloom and coldness.
Marquis Zhenbei appeared at the mass grave carrying a basket. After looking around, his gaze settled on the dry well.
He walked somewhat unsteadily toward the dry well.
It was a hot July day, and at noon, the Marquis of Zhenbei was already drenched in sweat from the tension.
He put down the basket, took out some incense, lit it with firewood, and stuck it in front of the dry well. Then he took out some food and a few bright yellow talismans and threw them directly into the dry well.
His voice carried a hint of confusion.
"Back then, you were blinded by lust, so don't blame me!"
"You've defiled my beautiful wife; you can die without regret!"
"It's much better for me to keep you here than to go down there. At least you won't suffer. You should thank me!"
After muttering to himself for a long time, the Marquis of Zhenbei went into the woods again, carried out a large stone, and then heavily placed it on top of the dry well.
Then, with a ferocious expression, he left.
Ye Lanyin, carrying the child, came out from the other side and watched him climb onto the carriage with a guilty conscience and drive away.
Her gaze was fixed on the dry well not far away.
If she remembered correctly, the last time she saw that child ghost, he said there were evil spirits here.
Her palms were sweating slightly; she wondered what the Marquis of Zhenbei was doing here.
After the carriage had completely left, she walked over with Hua Mei.
Looking at the burning incense on the ground and the dry well, she looked troubled. "Hua Mei, move this stone away."
"Yes, madam."
Lin Wanwan poked her head out and looked at the dry well that was covered by a large rock, feeling puzzled.
So she pointed to the leaves and mumbled something.
[Brother Tree said, "That scumbag dad killed someone."]
Just leave it here~
Oh ho, karmic debts must be repaid after death~
She babbled and continued to chew on the teething toy in her arms.
“Sa...Sa...man…”
Her non-standard voice reached Ye Lanyin's ears.
Furthermore, Ye Lanyin overheard Lin Wanwan's inner thoughts, which made her even more convinced of Xuanxin's feelings.
"Madam, why is Master worshipping here? And whom is he worshipping?"
"And they were so cruel, actually using stones to suppress it. They're not planning to let it be reincarnated for all eternity."
How could Ye Lanyin not know?
The Marquis of Zhenbei is blinded by greed, and this person must have seriously jeopardized his interests, otherwise he wouldn't have locked up his soul and prevented him from ever being reborn.
“Painting plum blossoms is no small matter; we must find a way to investigate it.”
[Investigation? Ask me!]
Lin Wanwan clapped her hands, then suddenly her eyebrows furrowed.
Ye Lanyin looked at her daughter with a hopeful expression in her eyes.
[He's been dead for fourteen years.]
[On the day of my mother's wedding, that scumbag father dragged her here.]
Ye Lanyin's eyes were glazed over, as if her soul had been ripped out, and her face showed shock.
On the day of the wedding?
Did so many things happen that day?
Hua Mei exerted all her strength to move the stone.
With a "bang," the stone fell to the ground, as if the floor itself was shaking.
Just as she was in shock, suddenly, ghostly roars came from the bottom of the dry well, startling Ye Lanyin and Hua Mei into taking a step back.
Hua Mei looked terrified.
"Madam, did you hear anything?"
A flicker of panic crossed Ye Lanyin's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and said, "I heard you."
Hua Mei murmured:
"Could it be that the master has killed someone?"
Ye Lanyin grabbed Hua Mei, who was about to step forward, and said nervously, "Wait, don't go over there."
"What's wrong?"
“We’ve been following him all the way here, how come we haven’t seen him dragging anyone?” As she spoke, Ye Lanyin looked around again. “This is a mass grave, we should be careful, it’s always better to be safe than sorry.”
He realized his mistake too late and took a step back.
Since her last visit to Yunxi Village and hearing Huaxin recount what had happened there, she knew it was always wise to be cautious given the current mysterious situation.
"Wow!"
Suddenly, another roar came from the dry well, and Ye Lanyin and Huaxin exchanged a glance again.
"Ah—" the two exclaimed at the same time.
Upon hearing this, the evil spirit below suddenly looked up, revealing a hideous scar on its face, along with its two gouged-out eyes.
"Ahhh, Lin Dehong!"
The evil spirit roared and leaped up from the bottom of the dry well.
Ye Lanyin stared at the disheveled man in front of her, her pupils widening as a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.
I'll kill you all!
After saying this, the evil spirit pricked up its ears, spread its arms, and began to search for the source of the sound.
Hua Mei covered her mouth tightly, trying not to make a sound.
The blazing sunlight shone on the evil spirit, making a 'sizzling' sound.
Before long, the sunlight scorched the evil spirit's body, and wisps of mist began to rise from it.
Lin Wanwan took one look and exclaimed in surprise.
[This demon is unafraid of sunlight.]
[His soul will soon be scattered!]
"Chirp..."
She pointed with her finger.
Upon hearing the sound, the evil spirit immediately locked onto its target and began to approach Ye Lanyin and the others step by step.
"Merit?" He suddenly stopped with his raised leg.
Then he grinned, his face still covered in blood and tears.
Ye Lanyin felt a chill run down her spine.
"No matter how much merit you summon, I will kill you, kill you, you heartless bastard!"
