Chapter 266: Stone tombs suppress wronged souls, and incense is cut off from relatives
The real estate developer bought this piece of land and was about to start construction when a grave appeared here.
The progress of the project has been postponed again and again, and it would not have been completed if it were not for the urgent pressure from the higher-ups.
"I don't care, we have to start work today!" Manager Huang of the engineering team disagreed.
"I've inquired and this grave doesn't belong to your village. I've hired professionals to dig it up."
"What?" Village Chief Wang Changsheng looked puzzled. "Who did you invite?"
As he was speaking, he saw Lao Liu rushing over from a distance, holding a bottle of wine: "Did you see that? He's here!"
This Old Liu was the person who had just been eating and drinking in the restaurant. It turned out that the shady work he was talking about was digging graves and corpses.
It was past six o'clock and the sun was beginning to set.
Digging graves and exhuming corpses is not a good job. It will damage your virtue and shorten your life.
So the construction team found Liu Haiqiao from their village, who had been doing funeral work for decades.
"Liu Haiqiao?" Wang Changsheng was also stunned when he saw him: "You, how could you agree to this?"
Liu Haiqiao snorted drunkenly, "Isn't it just a lonely grave? Others don't dare to dig it, but I do."
Moreover, Manager Huang of the engineering team promised to give him 50,000 yuan. In the past, he could only earn 1,800 yuan at most by helping with Pepsi.
But how many families can hold funerals throughout the year? How could he not be tempted by the 50,000 yuan?
So even though they knew that this lonely grave could not be dug, they still had to do it for the sake of the money.
Liu Haiqiao brought a hoe, and several construction team members also came over to help.
Meng Fuling watched as several people began to dig graves and couldn't help but shake her head: "You can earn this money, but you can't spend it!"
Everyone around looked at her. When they saw her, Liu Haiqiao's face darkened: "You again?"
"You're here spouting alarmism again. Are you police officers all too busy?"
"What? Police?" The engineering team members heard this and said, "Comrade police, we are doing this legally and in compliance with regulations."
Officer Yao checked their documents and found that the development was legal and all the procedures were complete.
"As long as it's legal, you are free to do whatever you want!"
He said slowly but with the intention of dissuading people: "However, you still have to pay attention to safety when digging graves privately."
[What a fate! Who would have thought the gravedigger would be the one who disrespected the master?]
[If you don't even care about your life for 50,000 yuan, be careful, you may not be able to spend it even though you earn it!]
[He digs up graves and corpses, isn't he afraid that the dead will seek revenge? Haven't you heard that all the grave diggers in the past died suddenly?]
[The brave will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation. This grave even has a tombstone, so who knows who is inside.]
[They're really willing to risk their lives for money. Aren't they afraid of retribution for damaging their virtue?]
Fans complained, and Liu Haiqiao looked annoyed: "Are we going to dig it out or not? If we don't dig it out soon, it will be dark soon."
"Dig, dig now!" Manager Huang gave the order, and Liu Haiqiao immediately picked up the hoe.
"Bang, bang, bang!" The dirt on the grave was splashed, and soon a hole was dug out on the grave.
"Did you see that, Village Chief?" Manager Huang sneered, "It's just a dilapidated grave. How could there be any evil spirit in it?"
The village chief sighed helplessly, and the villagers took a few steps back.
"Crack!" At this moment, the hoe seemed to hit something hard, making a metallic collision sound.
Liu Haiqiao stopped and everyone looked towards the grave.
"What is this?" They looked carefully and found that the grave was actually full of stones.
The inside seemed to be made of neat stone bricks, neatly stacked into an oval-shaped ancient bag.
The stone is dark and hard, and even with a hoe it is impossible to pry it open.
"Are you crazy? What good family wants their grave built of stone?"
Meng Fuling frowned as she looked at the stone pattern and whispered, "Stone graves suppress wronged souls, and incense and offerings to relatives are cut off."
"This grave cannot be dug!" she warned everyone again.
"What?" Everyone looked at each other in confusion after hearing her words. The older generation had also heard such statements before.
The village chief pointed at the stone tomb with a pale face and said, "No, you can't dig it. Shorty Liu dug up a stone tomb before and was cursed and died."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't suppress their fear. After all, no one wanted to die.
"What kind of curse is this? There are no ghosts in this world!" Manager Huang was furious.
"Don't waste time talking to them, just dig!" He gave the order, and Liu Haiqiao swung his arms and started digging at the stone.
There was a "crash" sound of stones breaking, followed by several blue bricks falling down.
The stone tomb was finally dug up, and everyone held their breath as they looked at the pitch-black grave mound.
"Woo, woo, woo!" Suddenly, faint crying sounds came from the grave.
"What's that sound?" The village chief listened carefully to the noise: "Is there a child crying in there?"
Although they were far away, everyone heard the crying.
The miserable cries and wails echoed in the air, but no one could see a dry hand extending from inside.
The black fingernails were covered with scars, and a pair of scarlet eyes peeked out from inside.
"Whoosh!" At this moment, black smoke emerged from the cracked tomb.
The smoke gushed out, and the people around inhaled the black smoke and covered their throats.
"Cough cough cough!" They started coughing madly, their faces flushed, their eyes were about to burst, and they couldn't breathe.
"Don't go over there, don't inhale the miasma!" Meng Fuling pulled Officer Yao and the others back quickly.
But those who didn't have time to run away suffered a miserable fate. Veins on their necks bulged, their eyes were bloodshot, and blood was flowing from all their orifices. It was extremely terrifying.
Black lines gradually appeared on their faces, and they fell to the ground foaming at the mouth.
All the workers were dead. Liu Haiqiao crawled out from the ground, covering his mouth and nose: "Help, help!"
"What on earth is this?" Seeing many people fall to the ground.
"This is miasma, the poisonous gas produced by the dead evil spirits trapped underground."
"What? Evil ghosts? We didn't see any?" Some people couldn't believe it: "Where are the ghosts?"
Meng Fuling raised her hand and made a gesture, and saw the black smoke gradually dissipate.
Inside the stone tomb, a pair of dry hands were desperately digging away the blue bricks.
Then a black head popped out from inside, with messy black hair covering the face.
Scarlet eyes with a cold glow appeared from beneath the hair, emitting the joy of being released.
The female ghost used all four limbs and crawled out of the tomb that was never exposed to sunlight.
[Oh my god, what the hell is this? It's so scary crawling out of a grave.]
[Sister Sadako, I was wrong. Please don't come to me. I didn't dig up your grave.]
[I was so scared I almost dropped my phone. Could these people have been poisoned to death?]
[I told you not to dig up graves and bodies, and now you're being punished immediately.]
[It's damnable. So many people couldn't persuade him, and in the end, this thing was allowed to see the light of day again.]
"This is a corpse-guarding ghost!" Meng Fuling said slowly, "A ghost that refuses to leave after death and clings to its own corpse."
"Even if they were turned into a pile of bones and buried in a grave, their souls would not leave."
"Who is it? Who dug up my grave?" The female ghost crawled on the ground, looking at the people around her who were running away in panic.
His eyes fell directly on Liu Haiqiao, and he was so scared that he wet his pants.
"No, don't come over!" He cried excitedly, pointing at Manager Huang who was slumped on the ground.
"It was him. He was the one who asked me to dig your grave. Go and settle the score with him!"
A sinister smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "You all must die!"
Liu Haiqiao rolled and crawled at this moment, grabbing the trouser leg of Meng Fuling next to him.
"Master, I was wrong. I shouldn't have ignored your advice. Please save me!"
Who was so arrogant just now and is now begging for help in a panic?
