"Uncle San can't be unable to remember such a simple thing, right?" Chu Sen said with disbelief.

"The simpler things are, the more likely they are to be overlooked. The third brother has been doing ** things since his debut. He has never learned the rituals of the first seven days and the night of the return of the soul since he was a child. How can he remember them?The reason he liked to hear the story of the hanged ghost was because he was a child

One can hear dissatisfaction with the third uncle in the uncle's tone. It is estimated that when they were young, the two were often compared with each other, and the uncle must have been the typical "stupid kid". This may be the reason why the uncle still feels a little resentful towards the third uncle.

"Uncle, are there really zombies in this world?" I asked.

"Two famous scholars in history, Ji Xiaolan and Yuan Mei, both wrote about zombies . Our family comes from Yong'an, a land famous for its corpses. There's a notorious mountain called Luosha Mountain. Anyone who dies unjustly or violently buried there will inevitably turn into a corpse. All earthworkers who join the industry must make a pilgrimage to Luosha Mountain. At the entrance to the mountain, there are two statues of Ming Dynasty generals that look like statues. They're actually stuffed zombies."

"Oh my god, zombies can be made into specimens?" I said.

"It's difficult. The only way to eliminate zombies is to burn them to charcoal. Generally speaking, a zombie isn't killed as long as its flesh remains intact. However, these two zombies were indeed suppressed, leaving behind their flesh bodies that were made into specimens. We can clearly see every part of their bodies."

"My God, is there any difference between you and humans?"

"Except for the color of some parts of the body being off, everything else is the same, so zombie transformation definitely exists. It's just that folk stories about zombies are too far-fetched, so they're all fake."

"But the Feng Shui tomb contains a statue of the black wooden god. How could there be a corpse transformation?" Chu Sen said.

"That's the weird part. There shouldn't be any living people in a Feng Shui tomb, whether they're hanged ghosts or zombies."

Soon the car arrived downstairs of Zhao Duan's house. Coincidentally, I met him coming downstairs and I didn't know where he was going. He looked refreshed and didn't look like he was possessed by a ghost. I was about to get out of the car, but my uncle said, "Don't get off yet." Then he continued to observe him.

Soon Zhao Duan walked past our car, and my uncle said, "Call him and ask him if he got the money and what he's doing now."

I called Zhao Duan and chatted for a while. Then I asked him what he was doing. He said, "At home. Where else can I go?"

After hanging up the phone, I said, "Going out isn't something you can't talk about, so why would he lie?"

The uncle said, "Follow him and see where he goes."

Chu Sen drove his car and followed him slowly, and Zhao Duan had no anti-reconnaissance awareness. He didn't notice such obvious following behavior at all and walked all the way to the gate of the community.

At this time we met another acquaintance, Yang Yanan. We didn't know what they talked about. Yang Yanan took out a palm-sized red brocade box and handed it to Zhao Duan. Then the two waved goodbye, and Zhao Duan walked home with a smile on his face.

Not knowing what the two were doing, Chu Sen then drove over to catch up with Yang Yanan. After the two parties exchanged greetings, he said, "Thank you for your help. It allowed me to continue communicating with Tingting after she left."

I looked at my uncle. When did he perform the ritual? Why did he do it behind our backs?

But the uncle didn't seem to know what was going on and asked, "How do you communicate with Tingting?"

"Why, you don't know?" Yang Yanan asked in surprise. Then he thought about it and smiled, "It seems that the gentleman did it for me."

"That gentleman" refers to the Third Uncle, but the Third Uncle has not yet been discharged from the hospital? Could it be that he performed a spiritual ritual for Yang Yanan while injured?

"Did Zhao Duan tell you?"

"Yes, he said that after the ritual, I could see the possessed ghost with my own eyes . It was Tingting herself. So even though Tingting is dead, she can stay with me forever." Yang Yanan said with a smile.

"What did you give Zhao Duan?"

"There's a necklace and a diamond ring. Zhao Duan said his sister wanted these things. Seeing the things is like seeing the person."

"Besides the decoration, has he ever asked you for money?"

"The day before yesterday, he asked for over 50,000 yuan. Zhao Duan said that Tingting's current place is very cold, and he wants to spend money to renovate the cemetery."

"You... Yang Yanan, although you are not short of money, don't be a sucker." I couldn't help but remind him.

"I believe Zhao Duan is not a liar, because the Long Muting incident fully proves that strange things do exist in the world, so Tingting must be with us and has not left." Yang Yanan said with certainty.

Faced with such an innocent young man, he didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only leave temporarily. The uncle looked out the window thoughtfully for a long time before saying, "I guessed for a long time what the ghost was, but it turned out to be a ghost in disguise."

I also found it both funny and sad. I said, "From the beginning, Zhao Duan was just playing tricks. It's just that the black-clothed ghost he described happened to match the model of the Black Wood God, so he fooled us all."

"How shameless." Chu Sen said hatefully.

I have nothing to say. What Zhao Duan did was absolutely despicable, but there really are people like Yang Yanan. He actually believed such a terrible lie. God knows what else his brain can be used for besides eating.

There were no zombies or hanged ghosts in the Feng Shui tomb except the Black Wood God. Afterwards, we analyzed that the reason why Zhao Duan lied was probably because he wanted to blackmail Yang Yanan for 30 million from the beginning. What he wanted was definitely not ghost money , but it was interpreted as ghost money by his uncle. Zhao Duan took advantage of the situation and pretended to have seen his sister's ghost. After receiving 1.2 million in compensation, he continued to blackmail Yang Yanan.

And the instigator of this scam turned out to be Uncle San. I am also shocked.

The uncle shook his head and said, "Don't blame Zhao Duan. If you think about it carefully, the problem isn't with anyone. It's the Black Wood God who's causing all this trouble."

"How come Zhao Duan is related to the Black Wood God again?" I asked curiously.

"Why did Zhao Tingting die? I suspect she most likely made a wish at Long Mu Pavilion on the day Yang Yanan proposed to her for a better life for her family . Girls from poor families often mature early because they carry more expectations. In other words, if she hadn't made the wish, she wouldn't have been drained of her essence by the Black Wood God. This is the equivalent exchange between humans and evil spirits. Yang Yanan isn't truly stupid; he's been blinded by the Black Wood God."

This shows how evil the Black Wood God is .

I said, "Making money by offering sacrifices to the Black Wood God is the most unreliable thing in the world."

"This isn't surprising. Every penny a person earns is actually earned through exchange. It's just that some people are willing to take risky moves to gain greater returns. It all depends on one's courage."

Chu Sen said: "Uncle is right. If business people can make three times the profit, they will kill for it. This is human nature."

"There's a legend in Western mythology that says if you sell your soul to the devil, you can fulfill one of your wishes. The Black Wood God is actually the devil, and Yun Hui's mother is the one who sold her soul, so Yun Hui was able to get away with it in a decent manner," said the uncle.

"It can't be said that he escaped unscathed. Yun Hui is a filial son, and he is well-known for this in the Shanghai business circle. But his mother died at the age of 49. This is also the price to be paid for Yun Hui." Chu Sen said.

"You are right. If you want to build a career, you should take the right path. What is yours will not escape, and if you force something that is not yours, you will have to pay a heavy price. Yun Hui is smart. He is now preparing to send the Black Wood God away." said the uncle.

"Can you send him off safely?" I asked.

"As long as the method is correct, it is still possible to dig a grave."

"After digging out the Black Wood God, where should we send it to?" I asked.

"There are two places to send him. If you want him to be safe, send him to a temple for a ritual. If you want to send him away, we will arrange to send him to a Tantric Taoist temple. It depends on Yunhui's choice." said the uncle.

Soon Yun Hui's money was transferred to the account. My uncle gave me 76,000 yuan according to the old rules. Together with the 200,000 yuan Yang Yanan gave me and the 140,000 yuan I earned before, I earned 400,000 yuan in half a month, which was considered a "huge sum of money".

My uncle set an auspicious day for the grave excavation. We arrived at the scene early that day. We had abstained from meat and fish the day before, and were not allowed to eat spicy foods such as chopped green onions, ginger, and garlic. On the day of the grave excavation, we were not allowed to wear brightly colored clothes, and even underwear had to be plain.

My uncle deduced that the Black Wood God's shrine was under the wooden pavilion, and Longmu Pavilion was actually the crown of the Black Wood God, so the statue of the Black Wood God must be quite large.

However, the difference between a Feng Shui tomb and a family tomb is that you must never stand on top of the coffin , otherwise your energy will be sucked away, which can bring bad luck at best and even life-threatening at worst. My third uncle is an example.
