"Thank you, thank you so much for letting me know the truth..."
As he spoke, Chen Bing could no longer hold back and burst into tears, covering his face.
"You're welcome. From now on, just pretend nothing happened and have a normal funeral. Don't worry, your mother won't die unjustly."
"Okay, I'll listen to you in everything."
After saying this, he wiped away his tears, concealed the sadness and anger in his eyes, and went to arrange his mother's funeral as usual, as if nothing had happened.
After all, after the meal it was the auspicious time and it was time to carry the coffin on the road.
Qi Ling, Si Yu and Si You also sat at the table, ready to continue eating.
The three of them were silent at this moment. Even Si Yu, who loved to talk the most, had a gloomy face and pricked up his ears to listen to the gossip of a few aunts at the next table.
A frail, middle-aged woman with droopy eyes and single eyelids approached the table with a mysterious look on her face. "Do you know anything? I heard that the wake last night was not peaceful at all. My son was so scared when he came back that he was pale as a sheet of paper."
"I know this too. I'm telling you something. Chen Bing's uncle died. I heard he died in a terrible way. His neck was separated from his body, and his eyes were not even closed. He died with his eyes open."
"What the hell? Is this true?"
"Of course it's true. How could I lie to you? My husband heard about this from the village chief early in the morning and couldn't wait to rush to his uncle's house to check on the situation."
"What?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this. It was simply unbelievable.
"No wonder my husband rushed to Uncle Chen's house early in the morning after receiving the call. Something big happened!"
The women at the table all had fear in their eyes, but they still couldn't help gossiping.
"If you ask me, his uncle's affair is probably related to Widow Chen. Maybe she died with regrets, so she came to seek revenge on him."
"But he deserved to die."
A woman who often works away from home and rarely comes home asked in confusion, "Why do they say that Widow Chen is responsible for his uncle's death?"
"Why else? That bastard has been thinking about his sister-in-law for a long time. I heard that Widow Chen was naked when she died, and he was the only one at the scene. Who else could it be if not him?"
"What? There's actually such a thing? Didn't they say Widow Chen died accidentally?"
"You believe this? Only that idiot Ah Bing would believe it. You better not go around saying such things in front of him!"
"Don't worry, we won't meddle in other people's business. If it's really as you said, then he deserves to die. He's worse than an animal. He seems so kind to his sister-in-law on the surface, and everyone in the village praises him. But who would have thought that he would actually bully orphans and widows like that behind their backs?"
"Yeah, I heard that the old bachelor was also involved. I don't know if it's true or not."
"I also heard that your man was involved!"
"Bullshit, how could my man possibly fall for that widow who's available to everyone?"
…
What followed was their quiet quarrel, and Qi Ling didn't listen any further.
After dinner, a burst of firecrackers rang out, and the men were shouting and starting to prepare to carry the coffin on the road.
At the same time, the master that the group of men with guilty consciences had found also arrived.
He was an older man wearing a tattered yellow Taoist robe, looking serious and upright.
They all called him Taoist Li.
Chen Bing also noticed it, but he kept Qi Ling's words in mind and didn't ask or say much. He just pretended he didn't see it at all and went on to take care of other things.
As soon as Taoist Priest Li arrived, he looked around the coffin from a distance and frowned, "The female corpse is full of resentment and has killed people before. She is also full of evil spirits. Although I have a talisman to suppress evil spirits, it may not be effective."
As soon as these words came out, the village chief's face changed drastically. He trembled and said shakily, "What should we do? Taoist Li, you have to save us! If you can't do anything, we will all be killed by her."
"Don't worry, I will find a way and will never let this evil spirit harm anyone."
"Why not cremate her? Once the fire is over, she won't be able to kill anyone again."
But this was quickly rejected by others.
"We can't decide this. Chen Bing will definitely not allow it. Let's think of another way!"
The Taoist priest thought for a moment, then reluctantly took out a thunder talisman from his bag.
"This is called the Heavenly Thunder Talisman. Any ghost or monster that comes into contact with it will be instantly struck by the thunder and their souls will be shattered."
Several men immediately smiled happily, "What are you waiting for? Use it now!"
As long as we can scatter her soul and leave only a corpse, she will never come out to cause trouble again.
"No, the female corpse is not moving at all. It is very likely that killing one person has exhausted all her energy. If there is still no movement after burial, there is no need to use the Heavenly Thunder Talisman."
After all, this was the only one he had! It was the only one his master left him before he passed away.
Thinking of this, he said: "If you use this talisman, you have to pay more."
"How much?"
“1”
The Taoist priest made a gesture of 1.
Several people breathed a sigh of relief
10,000?
As long as they can solve this problem, they can still get it if they get together.
Who knew the chief would just shake his head and say, "One price, one hundred thousand!"
The village chief's father couldn't help but raise his voice: "What? One hundred thousand? Why don't you just go and rob?"
The butcher stopped him and said, "One hundred thousand is one hundred thousand, as long as I can ensure that she won't come to my house again."
There are five or six of them here. If we split the bill equally, each person would get more than 20,000 yuan, which is still enough.
After all, money is external possessions and is not as important as your life.
Without life, you have nothing!
