Chapter 396 Practice

Two sons are a man's lifeblood. If Xia Zhizhi scolded his mother, he might be able to endure it, but how could he endure it if she said he was extinct?

His expression suddenly turned very ugly, and he shouted loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Xia Zhizhi was not afraid of him and said in a deep voice: "Believe it or not, it's your family's business!"

Xia Zhizhi said to Ah Ju again: "Since they don't believe it, we won't say anything here. Everyone has their own fate. Xiaojuzi, let's go!"

Ah Ju was very obedient, and the two of them immediately turned around and prepared to leave.

The village has been haunted at night for the past half month. Not only have all methods tried to no avail, but the masters also have no idea why.

It's not easy to find someone who seems to be able to see some tricks, so it's naturally impossible to let him go so easily.

If Xia Zhizhi directly said that this was a female ghost demanding their lives and that they would die, and that they could stay safe as long as they paid money to buy amulets, these people might not believe it, because ghosts are not as scary as those that come from poverty.

But Xia Zhizhi talked nonsense, saying that this matter might affect their future offspring, which was serious.

In the minds of some of them, continuing the family line is their lifelong pursuit and is a mission that is higher than their own lives.

In this time of panic, no matter what Xia Zhizhi said, they would rather believe it than not. After all, what if it was true?

Thinking that he might need help from Xia Zhizhi, the village chief immediately smiled and said, "Master Xia, don't bother with a fool like you. He has such bad behavior. We all believe that you are capable and can see the problems in our village at a glance. We old folks won't mention it. Anyway, we are buried up to our necks in the earth, so it's not a pity to die."

The village chief said this, waved to the two children nearby, called them over, and then began to morally blackmail Xia Zhizhi: "Look, these children in the village are all innocent. We can't let those resentful spirits affect the children. For the sake of the children, you must help us!"

As soon as the village chief opened his mouth, others around him also joined in pleading.

Everyone chatted with each other for a long time.

Xia Zhizhi took Qiao and saw that the time was almost right. She went down the hill with an embarrassed look on her face. She sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to help you. Now that things have come to this, I will tell you the truth and tell you the truth. I don't know if you have asked other masters to come and take a look. These girls are too resentful, and I am not 100% sure!"

The village chief immediately responded, "Just do your best. Tell me what you need and how you want us to cooperate. We will all listen to you. Although our village is not rich, every household will contribute to the reward. We will definitely not let your hard work go in vain!"

Others also responded, promising to raise funds to pay for his work.

Xia Zhizhi waved her hands and said, "Since you said so, I will give it a try first. There is no need to mention whether I will be paid or not. I am a cultivator and I don't need any money. We are from the same village and it is fate that we met. We are not rich, so there is no need to make a fuss about it."

Seeing that she was so noble and upright that she didn't even ask for any reward, the villagers trusted her even more.

If he is a scammer and doesn't want any money, then why come to the village all the time? You might as well sit down and rest for a while. After all, there is not much food no matter where you are now, and everyone's stomach is empty. The more you move, the faster you digest and the more likely you are to get hungry.

Xia Zhizhi asked the village chief to set up an incense table as a token of her respect, and said that she would perform a ritual to see if she could communicate with the group of wronged souls.

Naturally, the village chief had no choice but to obey.

After the incense table was set up, Xia Zhizhi performed a few dances as if to express her gratitude, and then pretended to light three incense sticks.

As soon as the incense was lit, she used her mental power to overturn the table.

The table fell to the ground with a bang, and the dishes and offerings on the table fell to the ground.

This is still quite impressive. After all, the table was quite heavy at that moment. Without anyone touching it, it flipped over on its own.

Xia Zhizhi staggered back a step, then covered her chest with her hands and spit out some blood.

Seeing how ferocious this thing was, the village chief's face suddenly darkened. He walked over and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Master Xia?"

Xia Zhizhi hunched her back, holding Ah Ju's arm, breathing heavily, and then questioned the village chief: "Didn't you say that it was because the village was poor and couldn't afford to raise so many children, so some girls were thrown into the mountains when they were just born?"

The village chief nodded and said, "That's right, Master Xia. It's not just our village. You know, in this day and age, this world, there are such things happening everywhere."

Xia Zhizhi said in a sharp voice: "I am just wondering, how can a newborn baby be so pure-minded and so chaotic? Tell me the truth, how many girls have been tortured to death in your village with cruel means?"

The village chief's eyes were evasive, and he hesitated, considering whether to tell the truth.

Xia Zhizhi looked like she was letting it go: "You've seen their attitude. If you want to continue covering it up, that's up to you. I'm not trying to scare you, but if this trend continues, every family in your village will be wiped out."

After saying that, she sat down, closed her eyes and began to rest.

These days, swearing at someone and leaving their entire family extinct is a very vicious word, and the faces of the villagers standing by were all very ugly.

The village chief hesitated for a while, knowing that there was nothing left to hide at this point, so he called the heads of every household in the village and had them confess everything to Xia Zhizhi one by one.

Why do we need to call the head of the family?

As a mother, due to the hormones in their bodies, few people would be cruel enough to strangle their children to death after giving birth.

It is usually the parents-in-law in the family who deal with this situation. In order to keep the daughter-in-law stable, some families will tell their daughter-in-law to give the child away.

Only they know where it went.

There are hundreds of people in the village, and these days everyone lives together as a family. There are only about forty households registered, and the number of families that have not abandoned their baby girls can be counted on one hand.

For example, there are three brothers in a family, and they all get married. If the first child of the eldest and second brothers is a daughter, these two children may be abandoned or raised.

But if the third brother's child is also a daughter, the family will see that the three brothers all gave birth to daughters, and think it is a bad sign. The family will not have enough food to raise so many girls.

This daughter, who was born as the first child in a small family, is now the third girl in a large family.

Then it is very likely that it will be processed.

Families that have never abandoned a baby girl are simply lucky and have more genes for having a boy. It is not unacceptable for a family to have more than ten grandsons but only one or two granddaughters.

After counting, Xia Zhizhi realized that the number was far more than she had imagined, because people these days are really fertile, and having two children in three years is not just talk.
