"Don't worry, there will be a generous reward." The female ghost winked mischievously and whispered to Feng Ling, hinting at something.
Feng Ling helped her and the baby, so she must be rewarded.
Feng Ling quickly looked up at the sky. A female ghost with a pale face and black eyes was pretending to be cute to her. Are you serious?
Fortunately, Feng Ling had already been refined and did not suffer a myocardial infarction, but the villagers who had nothing to do with the cause and effect could not see it at all.
Feng Ling had no reason to refuse. "Of course you can, but not now. You know, the scene needs to be dealt with, and there are other ghosts waiting."
I'm so busy, there's no way I can finish it.
"I know, I know. You go ahead and do your thing. I'll be back soon." The female ghost ran into the Zhang family holding the ghost baby. She wanted to go to Mrs. Zhang's room to get money to pay Feng Ling.
Mrs. Zhang has been raising Gu all year round. She has no other skills, but she can drive the Gu insects to take her into the mountains to find people to grow Ganoderma lucidum, and she sells them for a lot of money.
The villagers only knew that the Zhang family was rich, but they didn't know that the money was actually earned by Mrs. Zhang.
In fact, even Butcher Zhang didn't know how much money Mrs. Zhang had.
Only the female ghost Liu happened to know where Mrs. Zhang hid the money.
The death of Zhang's mother and son, as well as Mrs. Zhang's incestuous behavior, left the villagers stunned for a while.
"Village chief, it's over. Aren't you going to collect the bodies?" Feng Ling spoke, and the villagers finally came back to their senses.
"Oh! Oh my God!" Late at night, they actually witnessed a murder case in its entirety.
Butcher Zhang slaughtered Mrs. Zhang, his mother, like a pig.
It turned out that Mrs. Zhang was a Gu woman. Not only did she kill her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, she slept with her own son and raised him as a Gu person.
"What a sin!" How could such a horrific thing happen? It seemed the Zhang family's feng shui was truly failing.
Some people whose hearts couldn't bear it fainted.
The old village chief frowned, but did not feel sorry for the evildoers. Instead, he objectively expressed his own views.
“It is said that some uncivilized barbarians outside the Great Wall only refer to male and female like animals, and there is no such relationship as mother and son or father and daughter.
Therefore, when a son inherits the family business, he or she also inherits the women of his or her father's generation. A daughter can marry anyone, including her brother, father, and grandfather.
Could it be that Mrs. Zhang came from beyond the Great Wall?" That would explain why she slept with her son.
Because in her opinion, this is a very common thing.
Feng Ling was also shocked by the village chief's words. Fortunately, she didn't travel to the outside of the Great Wall...
"Feng Ling, why don't you perform a ritual to drive away the evil spirit so that I can arrange for someone else to collect the body." The village chief couldn't bear to watch any longer. It was too bloody and almost killed his old bones.
"Don't worry, the Zhang family won't deny the due compensation. Just do what you want, and they'll be able to handle the aftermath."
Needless to say, everything in Butcher Zhang's family, except for necessary expenses, will be confiscated and handed over to the clan. The Zhang family has many people willing to do this job.
You know, Butcher Zhang's family is extremely wealthy.
"Okay." The evil spirits here must be purified, and there is also the mantra for rebirth to prevent them from turning into evil spirits.
"Move them to the main hall and cover them with cloth..." Feng Ling gave instructions while lighting incense and arranging the ritual.
That's why the Zhang family was in chaos. There were people who were afraid of blood, but there were more brave people who rushed to work. They put in more effort and would definitely get a larger share in the final distribution of the property.
The whole process doesn't take much time at all, and the Zhang mother and son can be sent out for burial tomorrow.
"Which house should we go to now? How many are left?" The village chief was very nervous.
Feng Ling is really capable of doing things. If she doesn't make a sound, she will make a big splash. She speaks up for ghosts. Wherever she goes, there will be injustices and bad luck for the living. Just ask yourself, are you afraid of such a person?
Anyway, the elders had already wilted and had completely lost the toughness they had at the beginning. They were frightened.
They really didn't want to go along to watch the fun, fearing their hearts wouldn't be able to take it. Who would believe that they were going to watch the fun of ghosts? They were walking with ghosts...
Feng Ling released the skeleton and the old ghost carpenter, "I have to ask their opinions first.
You guys choose, whose house do you want to go to first?" Feng Ling asked, pointing to the empty space beside him.
The village chief shuddered, his legs and feet becoming unsteady. "Feng Ling, aren't they said to have a strong yin energy? It won't be a problem for old bones like us, right?"
How could she be so creepy? Pian Fengling was able to remain calm, and the village chief just wanted to give her a big thumbs up.
"It has no effect, because I drew cinnabar charms on their bodies."
Feng Ling's words made the village chief's shoulders slump. Follow him and go collect the bodies. You will have to pay for what you have done. The village chief can't do anything about it.
At this time, the skeleton spoke, and the village chief and others could also hear it, "Let's go to the old carpenter's house first. Things are more complicated over there."
Everyone could only hear the voice but not see the person, and fortunately they couldn't see the true face of the talking ghost. Just by listening to Lu Feng's accent, they could guess that it was a disabled person.
Even the village chief, who had extensive connections, couldn't identify the owner of the voice for a moment.
But the old carpenter? There was only one carpenter in their village, and that was the village chief's cousin. But he had been dead for many years, so why hadn't he been reincarnated yet?
"Is there any other hidden story behind my brother's death?" The village chief's brows wrinkled like earthworms again. This shouldn't be the case.
At that time, the old carpenter fell from the roof while working outside and died. Many villagers saw it and said there was nothing wrong with him. The owner also compensated him with fifty taels of silver, which was considered generous.
"No, I just haven't explained some things clearly to my family. I'll just say a few words and leave." The old carpenter spoke in a muffled voice, feeling very awkward.
The village chief's mouth twitched. The familiar scene was exactly the same as when the old carpenter was alive. Suddenly, the village chief felt that ghosts were not so scary anymore.
I could also roughly guess the old carpenter's intention.
The old carpenter is a good person in every way except that he is too stingy.
He hid all the money and valuables in the house by himself, without even telling his wife who had been with him through thick and thin.
As for his carpentry skills, he even kept them from his son and didn't teach anyone else.
Later, the old carpenter died suddenly without leaving any time to explain, resulting in the loss of all the family’s money, valuables, and carpentry skills.
If it weren't for the fifty taels of silver as compensation from the master, his family probably wouldn't have been able to handle his funeral.
The old carpenter doesn't know how to do carpentry, and his family of more than a dozen people have had to rely on compensation and a few acres of land to make a living for many years. With no income and having to support a large family, life is not easy at all.
Who wouldn’t feel resentful when having such a stingy father?
You see, the old man himself is also brooding over it, and has not been reincarnated even after being dead for many years.
Fortunately, he met Feng Ling, which made it possible for the carpenters in Heshan Village to rise again.
At this moment, the village chief finally realized the greatness of Feng Ling.
"Since it's a private matter, why don't we just not go in?" Wealth should not be exposed, and skills should not be made public. It would be redundant for outsiders to go in.
"You have to go and tell me about my funeral arrangements. I need to pay Feng Ling. Don't you have to be a witness?"
Remuneration? Why does it sound so strange coming from the stingy old carpenter?
