Chapter 128 Three Bowls of Rice for the Dead Change the Feng Shui, Your Death is Coming
Why? Did you really hire that food delivery person?
If that woman really did kill someone, I wholeheartedly agree that Yun Shu should deal with her!
After a flurry of speculation from netizens, Yun Shu explained, "It wasn't me who had food delivered to the dead, but I know who went to her house for dinner."
Who is it?
"It's called 'dead people's food,' so the people who come to eat here are obviously dead people."
Yun Shu said calmly.
The viewers in the live stream started speculating wildly: "Could it be those people Wen Aili killed? Is someone trying to use the food for the dead to lure vengeful spirits to Wen Aili for revenge?"
"As expected of you guys, you even guessed it. That's pretty much it."
Yun Shu said.
Although Wen Aili deleted all the content she had posted before, Yun Shu had already taken screenshots and saved all the photos she had taken.
Yun Shu carefully looked at Wen Aili's front door on her phone.
The house next to hers had a number 506, but Wen Aili's house had a number 147. The house number was also made of a different material than the neighbor's, so it was obvious that it had been replaced.
In the comments section of the video that Wen Aili posted earlier, her neighbors commented on what she had done.
Yun Shu had seen comments saying that Yao Shengwu's ex-wife worked at a barbecue restaurant, and Wen Aili often went to the barbecue restaurant to cause trouble for the ex-wife. Later, a fire broke out at the barbecue restaurant, and the ex-wife and son were trapped inside and burned to death.
The barbecue restaurant where Yao Shengwu's ex-wife worked was the site of a fire that killed many people and made the news at the time.
Yun Shu searched online and quickly found information about the barbecue restaurant, including photos of the area around it. The barbecue restaurant was located at number 147 on that street.
Yun Shu also has an iPad at home. She put the photos on the iPad and showed them to the viewers in the live stream.
“Look at the first photo. This is Wen Aili’s house number, but the house number next to hers shows that her house is on the fifth floor. This house number 147 is obviously not correct.”
The second photo shows the barbecue restaurant, number 147, where the former owner's ex-wife used to work. Unfortunately, a fire broke out at that restaurant, killing the ex-wife and son inside.
[Holy crap, did they disguise Moon Aili's house as a barbecue restaurant where someone died?]
You guessed right.
Yun Shu further explained, "Most people who die tragically don't become fierce ghosts, so they can't directly seek revenge on the person who killed them. Some vengeful spirits have obsessions after dying tragically, but they can't take revenge, so they're just trapped in the place of their death."
If I'm not mistaken, the food stall owner's ex-wife and son died tragically at the barbecue restaurant, and their souls are probably still trapped there, unable to leave the restaurant to seek revenge or be reincarnated in the underworld.
Changing the address and offering food to the dead can indeed make vengeful spirits believe that another place is also where they died tragically, thus drawing them here. However, it requires offering food to the dead three times, and the food must be mixed with special incense ash for it to succeed.
Yun Shu also gave a brief explanation.
What kind of special incense ash is it?
"The ash of the guiding incense. Guiding incense is the kind of incense that souls love the most. Many funeral shops sell it."
The fragrance Yun Shu was referring to was the one the man in black lit next to the bowl of fried rice at the door.
However, there were two points that Yun Shu did not mention: the person who lit the guiding incense must be a close relative of the deceased for it to be effective.
In addition, the nameplate that Wen Aili's family changed had to come from the barbecue restaurant that caught fire, in order to give Wen Aili's home the atmosphere of the crime scene.
Yun Shu didn't reveal these two points in the live stream, not only because she didn't want to expose the identity of the man in black, but also because she didn't want anyone with ulterior motives to learn this method of summoning ghosts and harm innocent people.
[The "meal for the dead" has only been delivered twice. What will happen if it's delivered a third time?]
Will the vengeful spirit come to seek revenge on Wen Aili?
[Yun Shu, why don't you go livestream from Wen Aili's house? I'm so curious if she'll encounter any ghosts today!]
When Yun Shu saw that many fans in the live chat wanted her to go live, she didn't answer directly. Instead, she packed her things and said, "I still have a lot of orders to do today, so I'll end the broadcast at 8 pm."
[You used to stream making paper offerings until midnight, why are you ending the stream so early today?]
[Oh! I know why Yunshu ended her broadcast so early. Looking forward to your good news!]
Yun Shu finished her live stream so early today, so she naturally planned to go and visit Wen Aili. Anyway, her home isn't far from here, and she can just ride her electric scooter there.
While Yun Shu was talking about these things in her live stream, Wen Aili happened to be watching her live stream.
Wen Aili was convinced that Yun Shu had hired someone to deliver food to the dead. She couldn't help but sneer, "Playing the ghost is just to clear your name. What do you mean by delivering food to the dead three times? If you dare to send someone else to deliver it again, I'll arrest that person and send them to the police station. Let's see how you explain yourself then!"
After seeing the man in black on the surveillance footage, Wen Aili was no longer so afraid of the dead man's food.
Thinking that the man in black might come to deliver the food for the dead again that night, she called her father and brother to come over.
After finishing the phone call, Wen Aili said to Yao Shengwu, "Honey, close the food stall today and wait at home with me. That man will definitely come tonight to deliver the 'meat for the dead' again. I've asked my dad and brother to come too. Let's catch that man in black red-handed and send him to the police station!"
"knew."
Yao Shengwu sat on the sofa playing on his phone, his brows furrowed. He gave a perfunctory reply without even glancing at her.
Wen Aili had no idea that Yun Shu was currently at the peak of her popularity, and anything she did could make it to the trending topics. After she smeared Yun Shu, netizens dug up her past and discussed it online. The related topics remained on the trending topics list, and many marketing accounts edited related videos.
Yao Shengwu came across the relevant video.
In order to grab attention, the marketing accounts did not verify the matter and claimed in the video that Wen Aili killed his ex-wife and son in order to climb the social ladder, and now he is getting his comeuppance by receiving food made from the dead.
Some marketing accounts even analyzed the information online in a very logical way, claiming that the fire at the barbecue restaurant was caused by Wen Aili.
As Yao Shengwu watched more videos, his gaze towards Wen Aili became more suspicious.
He thought for a moment, then suddenly said to Wen Aili, "Xiaoli, I remember you went to see them the day the barbecue restaurant caught fire."
With her back to Yao Shengwu, Wen Aili's expression immediately changed. After a long pause, she finally said, "What do you mean by that?"
Yao Shengwu, holding a grudge, said directly, "People online are saying that you started the fire."
Wen Aili turned to look at him, her face dark. "You believe everything people say online? This is definitely something that celebrity made up to mislead netizens!"
The police already investigated; the barbecue restaurant caught fire because the grill's wiring malfunctioned, causing it to explode! I don't have the skills to modify someone else's grill!
Yao Shengwu thought about it and agreed that it made sense.
Wen Aili is lazy and loves to eat. She's just a bit prettier than the average person and loves to look good. She spends all her time thinking about what clothes and cosmetics to buy, but she really doesn't have the brains for it.
Because Wen Aili's father and younger brother were coming, Yao Shengwu thought he should cook some good dishes for dinner, so he took Wen Aili out to buy groceries.
When they returned, Wen Aili's father and younger brother had already arrived at the entrance of the residential area.
As soon as the two stepped out of the elevator, Wen Aili heard her younger brother's voice, "Sis, why are you leaving a bowl of rice at the door? Are you feeding the stray cats?"
Wen Aili and Yao Shengwu quickly looked towards the door and saw a bowl of white rice on the ground, with black chopsticks stuck on the white porcelain bowl.
The white rice looked somewhat grayish, with a lot of incense ash on it, and there were ashes from burning incense next to the porcelain bottle.
"It's that person again!"
Wen Aili said through gritted teeth, "He must have been watching us from the shadows, and he deliberately chose to deliver this 'meal for the dead' when we were out!"
Yao Shengwu frowned and said, "I saw that celebrity say online that if you receive food from the dead three times, the vengeful spirits will treat our house as the place where they died tragically."
"fart!"
Wen Aili's face was full of anger. "That little bitch is just pretending to be a ghost to scare us! Besides, I haven't harmed anyone, so I'm not afraid of vengeful spirits!"
After she finished speaking, she noticed that her house number had changed. "Why does this house number say 147? Our house is 504. Who changed it?"
Wen Aili reached out and tried to pry it off, only to find that the doorplate was just stuck on with double-sided tape and could be easily peeled off the door. Their original doorplate was gone.
Yao Shengwu said with a grim expression, "I saw a video online saying that the barbecue restaurant that caught fire was number 147 on that street. We should throw away this address card immediately!"
Upon hearing Yao Shengwu's words, Wen Aili felt a chill run down her spine. She quickly went inside and threw the house number into the trash can.
But they hadn't noticed the house number before, and now it was too late to throw it away. The three bowls of rice had already been delivered, and the feng shui of their house had long since changed.
Wen Aili clenched her fists tightly and said, "We won't sleep tonight, we'll stay here and keep watch. I want to see what kind of things come up!"
Yao Shengwu looked at his phone and even glanced at Yun Shu's live stream. The comments were all saying that she would be live streaming a "death meal" after 8 o'clock.
Although Yun Shu didn't explicitly say she was going to do a live stream, her fans still guessed it.
Yao Shengwu said to Wen Aili, "That celebrity's fans said she'll be doing a live stream near our house tonight."
"I see!"
Wen Aili's face twisted in pain. "There are no ghosts in this world. This whole thing was a show that Yun Shu orchestrated herself! She first provoked me with the food of the dead, causing a conflict between us, so that the reporters would take pictures and create a topic of conversation!"
Then she'll use this as an opportunity to create hype, saying our house is haunted, and that's why she's doing a live stream. There are no ghosts at all; she'll definitely have someone create some special effects to fool the viewers!
"Possibly."
Yao Shengwu said, "Should I call a few of my brothers over too? We can have them play cards at home tonight. If that celebrity brings people over and tries to scare us with fake ghosts, I'll have my brothers help send them to the police station."
“Yes! Let all your friends come!” Wen Aili sneered. “The more people the better, today we’ll expose this celebrity’s true colors!”
Yao Shengwu immediately called his friends.
Not long after, a large number of people came to their home, including Wen Aili's father and younger brother, making more than ten people in total.
Yao Shengwu went out and bought a lot of groceries, planning to treat them to a good meal that evening. He also told them about the matter and asked them to stay and help out that night.
Those people all agreed.
Yao Shengwu and Wen Aili were busy in the kitchen, preparing a large table of dishes. By the time they could eat dinner, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening.
Their house was bustling with activity. Even at eight o'clock, dinner was still not finished, and Yao Shengwu and his friends were still drinking and chatting.
Yun Shu had already finished her live stream and rode her electric scooter alone to this neighborhood.
She entered the residential area, using a compass to find the exact location. By the time she found it, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.
The dinner party at Wen Aili's house finally ended, and everyone sat in the living room to rest while Yao Shengwu and Wen Aili cleaned up the mess.
Suddenly, there was a snapping sound, and all the lights in the house went out, plunging the house into complete darkness.
then.
With a bang.
The crisp sound of porcelain shattering on the ground rang out.
The lights suddenly went out, and Wen Aili, not paying attention, accidentally knocked over a wine bottle on the table.
She stood rooted to the spot, afraid to step on shards of glass, and anxiously asked Yao Shengwu, "What happened? Why did the light go out!"
Before Yao Shengwu could speak, Wen Aili's younger brother said, "Sister, I pressed the switch, but it didn't work. The light still won't turn on."
Yao Shengwu then said, "It might be a power outage. I'll go check it out."
After he finished speaking, he found a flashlight, turned it on, and walked towards the door, where the main power switch for the house was located.
"The circuit breaker doesn't look tripped here, so why won't the lights turn on? Could there be a problem with the wiring?"
Yao Shengwu muttered something to himself, then said to Wen Aili, "Xiaoli, come here and get me the flashlight. I'm going to take this apart and check the wiring."
"oh."
Wen Aili came over to get him the flashlight, but after a while, the flashlight beam swept across the doorway and Wen Aili suddenly saw a figure appear on the door.
But there was no one else by the door except for the couple! Their shadows on the ground couldn't possibly be reflected on the door!
