Chapter 30 I warn you not to mess around
I saw that the place where the grave was supposed to be was charred and the soil was turned over.
There was no grass growing around it, only a big pit in the middle, with the black and mottled coffin lid half buried and half exposed.
"This...what is going on?" The Ming family members were dumbfounded and followed Duke Ming to check it out.
But Yun Qingqing raised her hand to stop him.
"Don't go over there! There's something unclean in there!"
Several people stopped immediately, their expressions becoming increasingly grim.
"Hiss... Do you feel that the air is much cooler than before?" asked the second son of Duke Ming, rubbing his arms.
"Now that you mention it, it's true..." The third brother shuddered at what he said.
The boss didn't say anything, but silently moved closer to the people next to him.
As if to confirm everyone's guess, suddenly a cold wind blew up, the sky and the earth changed color, and a strange black wind rushed towards everyone.
Everyone in the Ming family retreated in fear, unable to control their cries of surprise.
"Protect the prince!" Nan Zheng held the hilt of the knife and stood in front of Xiao Changheng's wheelchair.
Xiao Changheng shouted, "Protect the princess first! If anything happens to her, you're the only ones to ask!"
But before the guards could act, Yun Qingqing's eyes turned fierce and he shouted:
"Don't get in the way, everyone, get out of the way!"
The guard didn't know who to listen to, and while he was hesitating, Yun Qingqing had already drawn out a talisman to face the strange wind.
She formed a seal with one hand, pinched the talisman paper between two fingers of the other hand, chanted a spell, and pushed it forward.
"retreat!"
The strange wind, which had no substance at first, hit the talisman paper and made a clanging sound. Everyone seemed to see a flash of light shield. When they came to their senses, the strange wind had stopped and the chill in the air had dissipated.
Everyone in the Ming family breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Yun Qingqing with respect.
Nan Zheng wiped a cold sweat. If something happened to the princess here, who knows how angry the prince would be.
Duke Ming was trembling as he was supported by his eldest son and looked at Yun Qingqing:
"Master Yun... Master Yun, was that the culprit who destroyed my family's ancestral tomb? Has he been eliminated this time?"
Yun Qingqing shook her head and took out a few talismans and handed them to Nan Zheng:
"Have eight guards each take one and stand in eight different directions. Everyone should retreat to the circle formed by the people holding the talismans. No one is allowed to move without my permission, otherwise they will bear the consequences!"
Everyone did as they were told without objection. Yun Qingqing stood alone outside the circle and took out a piece of talisman paper and stuck it on her chest.
At this moment, others suddenly felt that something was different about her, but they couldn't put it into words.
Only Xiao Changheng's expression changed. He sat up straight and asked in a deep voice, "Where is she?"
Nan Zheng was stunned and said, "The princess is right there and hasn't gone anywhere..."
"Don't make a sound!" Yun Qingqing's voice came clearly, and Xiao Changheng was stunned.
Nan Zheng looked at the prince, then at the princess, and suddenly realized what was different about the princess.
Although she had been standing there, her aura had completely disappeared!
Even with the prince's keen perception, he still couldn't detect her presence at all. No wonder he was nervous.
He looked at Yun Qingqing with admiration, and once again sighed at the princess's great abilities.
Suddenly there was movement in the woods nearby, and everyone started and held their breath.
I saw a strange wind swirling out of the woods and coming around the tomb.
"Found it!" A faint light flashed in Yun Qingqing's clear eyes. She quickly stepped forward and threw a piece of talisman paper towards the strange wind. With a sharp whistle, the strange wind condensed into a human figure and fell to the ground.
The figure was a woman in a red silk dress, with her long hair hanging down and covering most of her face. The remaining half was covered tightly by the yellow talisman on her forehead, which looked quite creepy.
"...Ghost!" Someone in the circle couldn't help but scream.
The woman paused, and suddenly said angrily:
"Who are you scolding? You are the ghost, your whole family is ghosts!"
Everyone in the Ming family: ...
Seeing that the woman's momentum was surging and she was about to blow the talisman away, Yun Qingqing "slapped" another talisman on her, and her breath suddenly weakened.
But she cursed even more fiercely.
"Let me go! You damned mortals came into my house and messed around, making it a mess, and now you're trying to attack me! You've completely lost your conscience and are unforgivable!"
Although the Ming family was afraid, they couldn't help but feel angry when she said that.
The third son of the Ming family said angrily:
"You evil ghost blew up my Ming family's ancestral tomb, and you still dare to talk nonsense and turn the tables!"
"Bah! Shame on you!" The woman grew even angrier. "It was clearly one of your own family who dumped the evil object in front of the ancestral grave. It was so evil that it attracted thunder from the heavens, and this whole area has become a place of great evil and gathering of evil! Now you're blaming me?"
"You're talking nonsense..."
The third son of the Ming family subconsciously wanted to refute, but Yun Qingqing interrupted:
"She's right."
The Ming family was stunned.
Yun Qingqing said:
"She's a mountain ghost, transformed from the essence of the mountains and rivers. She has no yin energy and no blood debt, which means she has never harmed anyone. The yin energy in this cemetery has other reasons."
"In fact, if she hadn't deterred us before, who knows how many evil spirits would have been attracted to the ancestral tombs. The evil would have brought disaster to our descendants, and the disaster that your family suffered would have been much more serious."
“…Is that really the case?” The Ming family members looked at each other in surprise.
Yun Qingqing nodded: "She was acting like a ghost just now to scare away the living people, so as to prevent them from being contaminated by the evil spirit of this place and getting into trouble."
"That's good to know." The mountain ghost snorted coldly, raised his hand and threw a bronze mirror to Yun Qingqing.
"Look, this family uses this kind of thing to worship their ancestors. Isn't this digging their own graves? Foolish mortals, they don't understand anything, and when something goes wrong they try to shirk responsibility. It's simply unjust!"
Yun Qingqing took the bronze mirror and looked at it for a while, then looked at Duke Ming with an indescribable expression:
"You put this here?"
Duke Ming looked bewildered, but his eldest son Ming Cheng's expression changed.
"This... I bought it at a high price... But that expert said it had a Qi-gathering array carved into it using a secret method, which could ensure the family's long-term prosperity. That's why..."
"You've been deceived," Yun Qingqing said mercilessly, pointing at the patterns on the bronze mirror. "This isn't a Qi Gathering Array at all, it's a Yin Gathering Array. Placing this thing in front of your ancestral tomb is like opening the gates of hell."
Ming Cheng: ...
After Yun Qingqing said these words, her expression changed slightly and she looked at the bronze mirror and fell into deep thought.
"Hey, now that the truth has been revealed, can you let me go now?" The mountain ghost was suppressed by the talisman paper and had no way out. He said irritably.
"...Master Yun, what should we do with my family's ancestral tomb?" Duke Ming was only concerned about his own ancestral tomb.
Yun Qingqing looked around the cemetery, then her gaze fell on the mountain ghost, and she said thoughtfully:
"The feng shui of this piece of land has already been completely ruined. The only way to escape the bad luck is to move the graves, but there is no better feng shui site than this one on the entire mountain."
The Ming family looked disappointed.
"However, if this mountain ghost girl is willing to cooperate, there is a better solution. It can even make your family's fortune better than before."
As soon as Yun Qingqing finished speaking, the eyes of the Ming family fell on the red-clothed mountain ghost.
The mountain ghost shrank his neck: "...I warn you not to mess around!"
