Chapter 72: The Female Corpse Buried Alive
The skin and flesh of the skull were well preserved, except for the dirt that covered it, which made it look dusty, but the face was clearly discernible. Its hair was very long and dense, so it was obviously a woman, and she looked pretty and young. This situation shocked Mr. Lu and Lin Yuxi so much that they were speechless. We accidentally changed the Feng Shui Bureau and dug up an unknown female corpse. It was so unexpected.
But I know in my heart that this is not an accident, and the female corpse was not buried recently. It must have been a tragedy forty years ago. Someone specifically wanted to deal with the Lu family and destroy the Feng Shui. They broke the buried bricks and buried a female corpse, forming a "murderous corpse strangling the head", so that the old man's corpse would not decay and also become a murderous corpse, causing the Lu family to gradually die out and have no descendants!
I couldn't help but feel cold in my heart. This person was so vicious that it was not enough to harm the Lu family. He actually killed a woman, or buried her alive here. As I thought about it, I asked Lin Yuxi for some tissues and bravely wiped the dirt off the face of the female corpse. Although the skin and flesh were not rotten, they had lost all their blood color. However, they retained enough moisture and did not appear to be shriveled. The eyelids were tightly closed, but it seemed that there was soil in the eyelids. Judging from the traces of bleeding from all seven orifices, she must have been buried alive !
The cave was tilted, and it was almost noon, so the sun shone in. Mr. Lu and Lin Yuxi could see the face of the female corpse clearly. Mr. Lu suddenly trembled and said in horror: "I have dreamed of this woman. She wants to kill me!" He took a step back, and a stone happened to trip him. He rolled down the hillside, and Lin Yuxi ran down to chase him.
At this moment, the female corpse's eyelids suddenly opened, and a pair of blood-red eyeballs were covered with dirt. This should be because she opened her eyes when she struggled violently before suffocating to death, and when she closed her eyes, she rolled up the dirt. I thought about this and realized that the female corpse opening her eyes was a sign of pretending to be dead, and it was also a sign of the evil corpse waking up.
I was so scared that I hurriedly scraped the loose soil around to cover its head and face, then quickly climbed out of the cave and filled it back with soil with a shovel. The female corpse was awakened by the sunlight. If I didn't bury it with soil quickly, it would follow me for the rest of its life. When Lin Yuxi came back with the dusty Mr. Lu, I had already filled the cave and stomped it down with my feet, and then I felt relieved.
Mr. Lu was distracted at the moment and didn't say a word. Lin Yuxi asked me, "What's going on?"
I frowned and said, "Someone deliberately sabotaged it. Forty years ago, the Feng Shui master buried the inscribed bricks, and then someone dug it up and buried a woman alive inside. You can imagine how resentful a person must have been to bury her alive. The dead body was strangled, so the old man's body has not rotted for forty years, and he has been tortured every day. This has brought disaster to his family and future generations."
“Then just dig it out and replace it with blue bricks and everything will be fine, right?” Lin Yuxi hadn’t realized how serious the situation was and thought it could be easily handled.
I shook my head, looked back at the entrance of the cave and said, "This corpse has too much resentment and has long since turned into a zombie. It cannot be easily dug out. This is not only related to the safety of the nearby villages, but also to the safety of the entire Lu family's descendants. Because in the past forty years, the female corpse has been connected to the old man through the earth veins, just like a yin and yang knot. If one is moved, the other will react. If things go wrong, all the direct descendants of the Lu family will die suddenly!"
After hearing the last sentence, Mr. Lu shuddered and almost fell down again.
Lin Yuxi swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "You...you're so scary." Then he rolled his eyes and secretly glanced at Mr. Lu, leaned over and asked me in a low voice, "Is there a way to crack it? If not, we'll collect the money and go home. If there is a way, we can make a lot of money."
I thought to myself that there must be a way, but the problem is that it is too difficult. But no matter how difficult it is, we have to get this done. This is related to the lives of many descendants of the Lu family. Money is not important. So I whispered to her: "There is a way, but it won't work today. Let's discuss it when we get back."
Lin Yuxi hummed, turned around and said to Mr. Lu: "Mr. Lu, this matter is very difficult to handle. We dare not continue. Please find someone else."
I was stunned. Didn’t you want to make a fortune? Why didn’t you do it?
"Manager Lin, please help me to the end. Just tell me how much it costs." Although Mr. Lu was scared, he could see that we were not incapable of doing it. How could we ask others? Besides, we had asked many experts before, but none of them worked. It was not easy to find such a "magical" man like me, how could we let him go?
"Well, first of all, it's very dangerous and we have to consider personal safety. Secondly, the cost is too high and I feel embarrassed to ask you for so much money." Lin Yuxi frowned, looking very embarrassed.
I suddenly understood that this girl was taking the opportunity to raise the price. I couldn't help but smile bitterly. In terms of business acumen, I am far behind her. But Xiaopang is comparable to her.
Mr. Lu was afraid that she would not agree, so when he saw that she had something to live with, he immediately said, "Money is not a problem. As long as this matter is settled, I can accept any price."
"Okay then, let's go back and discuss the price and give you an answer tomorrow morning." Lin Yuxi continued to keep me in suspense with a sullen face, which made me feel very ridiculous.
Before leaving, I stuck the chisel into the soil, tied a red rope around the end of the chisel, and stretched a few nets horizontally and vertically, and then covered them with soil. Because I didn't expect to encounter evil corpses when I came here, I didn't bring anything to suppress the corpses, so I used the chisel as a mason's awl, and with the five ghost seals made with the red rope, there shouldn't be any trouble.
On the way back, Mr. Lu introduced us to his family. His grandfather's generation moved from the south and served as the village chief of Xiadian Village for more than ten years. He was less than fifty years old when he died. He was not yet born at that time. Later, when he was fifteen years old, his father passed away. A few years later, his two uncles also died inexplicably. However, since his grandfather's death, the family's living conditions have improved a lot. His father once served as the director of the county, and his two uncles also served in the township. The Lu family was very prominent for a time.
After his father and uncle died, the Lu family did not collapse. He graduated from university and stayed in Xiling City, working his way up to the department level. Several of his cousins also lived well, either as civil servants or big bosses, none of them poor. Now the Lu family is once again on the rise, even more impressive than their father's generation.
The strange thing is that two cousins died of strange diseases in the past two years, and the rest of the brothers and sisters are also in poor health. They once thought about the cemetery and invited several famous Feng Shui masters to come back to Xiadian to take a look, but they all said there was no problem, so everyone thought it was caused by genetics and stopped thinking about other things.
I asked him if he knew how his grandfather died? Because the old man was less than 50 years old when he died, he was still very young, and it felt a little strange. Mr. Lu said that he was not very clear about how his grandfather died, because it was still a turbulent period, and the medical conditions were not good. He died as a sudden illness. But when I was a child, my grandmother told me that on the night of his death, he was drinking outside, and when he came back, he encountered a gust of cold wind. He was so scared that he ran home quickly. When he came back, he found that the jade Guanyin hanging around his neck was broken!
