"How can such a ferocious ghost be easily moved?" I asked worriedly.

"Some things happen for a reason. Why be afraid ? Ghosts are transformed from humans." Uncle San looked as if he was used to it.

"Then let's go to Longmu Pavilion now?"

To be honest, I don't really want to go because it's too dangerous. It's hard to say whether I will encounter danger if I rush in rashly.

But my Third Uncle also thought of what I could think of. He said, "Don't worry, Third Uncle is not a fool. We must be cautious in areas like this that are unfamiliar and dangerous."

"Yes, you must be sure when entering a place like this, otherwise you will really be killed." Chu Sen said.

Uncle San thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Zhen, contact Yang Yanan. I need him to gather the kids in the unknown corner to find out what's going on in Longmu Pavilion."

So I contacted Yang Yanan, and when he heard that Zhao Duan agreed to bury Tingting, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I've finally put my mind at ease."

"But there's a prerequisite for this. The coffin buried under Long Mu Pavilion must be dug out , and Zhao Duan must see it with his own eyes before he agrees."

"What? There is a coffin buried under Longmuting?" Yang Yanan asked curiously.

"Yes, the person buried in this coffin is the one who killed Tingting."

"How did you come to this conclusion?"

"Don't worry about it. Just help gather the students from the unknown corners."

"Of course, no problem. You guys set a time and I'll gather everyone." So the two parties decided to meet at a famous hot pot restaurant in Shanghai at six o'clock that evening.

Then my third uncle took us to a teahouse and ordered a private room. He took out a cinnabar brush and started writing and drawing on long strips of talisman paper. He drew more than a dozen talismans in the afternoon. There were strange-shaped fonts on them, as well as some figures similar to tiger heads and lion heads. After my third uncle finished drawing one, he spread it on the sand to dry, and the two of us helped him.

After finishing the drawings, Uncle San rested his hands on his waist to relax. He said, "Drawing talismans is also a skill that must be learned. Talismans are divided into three categories: graphics, text, and Sanskrit. A single mistake can make a world of difference. Therefore, you must be very careful when making talismans. If a useless talisman is leaked, it may harm others and yourself."

"Uncle San, can you teach us how to draw talismans?" Chu Sen did not give up any opportunity to learn.

"Not yet, because without any theoretical basis, talismans drawn by simply memorizing graphics and characters will be useless."

"Then you should teach us some theoretical foundations. Otherwise, it's really unpleasant to just watch this person get itchy all the time."

Uncle San said, "Some things cannot be achieved without hesitation. You should be patient. Now is not the time to talk about this, but I think it will be soon."

Seeing that Third Uncle's attitude didn't seem to be perfunctory, Chu Sen immediately became excited and asked, "Uncle, have you heard any news?"

Uncle San laughed and said, "Need I say this? Business is getting busier and busier, and we simply don't have enough manpower. Several of the heads of the families have said they want to recruit outsiders to supplement the staff. All that's missing is the Fifth Old Master's approval."

"Really? That's great." Chu Sen almost jumped up.

"Be patient and wait. Longhua Village has been closed for decades. It's time to recruit new blood."

We chatted until six in the evening, and then we went to the agreed hotpot restaurant. Yang Yanan had already arrived, accompanied by two men and one woman, all of whom looked to be college students in their early twenties. The four of them had highly consistent expressions, all of them frowning and looking worried.

After the two parties sat down, Yang Yanan said, "These are the members of the Unknown Corner. There are a few who don't want to show up, so I won't force them to come."

"Excuse me, everyone." Uncle San greeted everyone and said, "I have nothing else to ask you all to come here today. I just wanted to ask how you all knew about Long Mu Pavilion."

The three of them exchanged glances, and the girl said, "We heard about this from a scrap collector. Although we have Yang Yanan's financial support, we also collect scrap in our spare time and raise funds for our activities. So, we got to know a scrap collector on Dongpai Road. After he learned about our extracurricular activities, he told us about a place like Longmuting, so, that's why we went there."

"Oh, how many times have you been there?"

"We went there three times in total. The environment there was much better than most of the abandoned places we've visited. We never expected an accident to happen."

"Can you give me a brief description of the situation in Longmu Pavilion?"

"The vegetation inside is very lush, with locust trees, mulberry trees, pine trees, sunflowers, and morning glories. The area covers an area about the size of two football fields, so it can be considered a lush greenery. Among the trees is a red-painted triangular wooden pavilion. That's about it."

"Didn't you notice any abnormalities the previous two times?"

"There was nothing unusual. Tingting even said it was a nice park, better than many she'd seen. I didn't expect something like that would happen on her third visit."

"Where did the accident happen?"

"It was right in front of the wooden pavilion entrance. Yang Yanan had placed the flowers inside, and Tingting was going inside to get her wedding ring. As soon as she reached the pavilion entrance, she sank into the soil. When she floated up, she just…"

Uncle San waved his hand to signal that there was no need to say anything more, and turned to ask Yang Yanan, "Did you enter the pavilion from that position as well?"

"Yes, I don't understand why I was fine but Tingting fell in. Could it be because I stepped on the soil and loosened it?"

Uncle San said: "It has nothing to do with you, it may be related to gender."

"It's about gender? You mean girls can't stand at the entrance of the pavilion? Why is that?"

"I'm just guessing, but judging by the accident, it's very likely to be the case. Luckily, the other girls were just watching on the sidelines that day, otherwise Tingting wouldn't be the only one to die."

After hearing what Uncle San said, the girl who spoke earlier turned pale as paper and looked terrified.

Uncle San sighed slightly and said, "Why does the scrap collector know about Long Muting? Did he tell you the reason?"

One of the boys said, "I asked Boss Wang, but he just laughed and said it was a big scandal and it was inconvenient to tell us, so I didn't ask."

Uncle San said to Yang Yanan, "Could you please ask Boss Wang to come over? The information he knows might be very important."

"Then I'll go pick him up." After saying that, Yang Yanan left the hot pot restaurant.

"Master, is Longmuting really haunted ? Are you here to catch ghosts?" the boy asked cautiously.

Uncle San said, "There's no ghost to catch. I'm just a funeral worker. I came here to bury Zhao Tingting."

"You asked so carefully that I thought you wanted to catch a ghost." The boy looked disappointed.

"I'm not a Taoist priest , just a tomb worker. However, I believe that the reason why the dead linger and harbor resentment is because the burial methods and methods are not correct. This leads to people dying unwillingly and even harming innocent people. The solution to these problems cannot be achieved through suppression. All we need to do is rebury the deceased and fulfill his unfulfilled wishes."

"You mean if we dig out that coffin and bury it again, Long Muting will be safe from now on?" the young man asked in surprise.

"That's certainly the case from the operational perspective, but the actual operation is more complicated than you describe. The only thing I can confirm is that the deceased was a woman who hanged herself. The purpose of reburial isn't to dig up the body and rebury it, but to fulfill the deceased's unfulfilled wish. Otherwise, it would be useless and cause enormous trouble for the earthwork, and could even put her life in danger."

"Oh, is that so?" Judging from the young man's expression when he answered, he didn't believe what his uncle said at all.

A while later, Yang Yanan arrived with a dirty middle-aged man. He sat down and distributed business cards with a smile on his face. He said, "Hello everyone, if you have any unused electrical appliances at home , please don't just throw them away. Give me a call. I guarantee the price will be higher than any other seller."

Uncle San smiled and said, "Be sure to remember to take care of Boss Wang's business, but I asked Boss Wang to come here today because I have something to consult you about."

"You tell me, I will tell you everything I know."

"Okay, I heard that you know some unknown things about Long Muting. Can you tell me here? It won't be in vain." After saying that, the third uncle took out a hundred yuan and put it in front of him.
