Chapter 317: Chenling Evocation
More than a dozen criminal police officers were busy beside an earthen grave. The criminal police captain Song Ruian frowned and tried his best to endure the wailing sounds of several people.
It was a new grave, lying quietly on a low-lying land to the west of Xiaochenzhuang.
It turned out that after Li Bing and the other five people found out about Meng Chong's family from the aunt's house in Xiaochenzhuang, they thought of the innocent soul under Xianya on Chenling and felt that there was something interesting in it.
After Zhang Yuanshan gave the aunt some advice on how to break the bad feng shui of the house, the aunt was extremely grateful and thanked him profusely.
Li Bing struck while the iron was hot: "Auntie, I need to ask you a favor. Can you quietly take us to the deceased Zhang Mei's natal home without making any noise?"
The aunt was stunned. Although she didn't understand what these foreign tourists meant, she was filled with joy because they gave her home a free Feng Shui inspection, and she happily agreed.
She took Li Bing and others to Zhang Mei's natal home.
Zhang Mei's family members opened the door and saw the aunt from the same village coming to their home with several strangers they had never seen before. They couldn't help but look suspicious.
The aunt told Zhang Mei's family that the five people were tourists from Shanghai. She pointed at Zhang Yuanshan and told Zhang Mei's family in an admiring tone that Zhang Yuanshan, a Taoist priest with profound spiritual practice, could see her Feng Shui at a glance and gave her free of charge.
Cracked.
Mountain people are very superstitious by nature. When they heard the aunt's introduction, they couldn't help but respect Zhang Yuanshan.
Zhang Mei's family asked Zhang Yuanshan: "Excuse me, distinguished guests, why did you come to my house? Could it be that this Taoist also saw that there is something wrong with our family's feng shui?"
Zhang Yuanshan shook his head, and Li Bing said at the side: "Don't get me wrong, we didn't come here to see your home's Feng Shui. But we encountered a strange thing on Chenling. We heard this aunt mention it, so we came here to think about it.
Let’s find out what’s going on, I’m sorry to bother you!”
When the Zhang family heard that these outsiders mentioned Chenling, they felt their bodies tremble.
Zhang Mei's mother couldn't help but shed tears when she thought of her daughter who fell to death on Chenling. She sobbed: "Excuse me, what did you see on Chenling? Come to my house today, is this strange thing related to my family?"
"
Li Bing hesitated and said, "Sorry, if we say something wrong, please don't blame us."
Zhang Mei's mother nodded and said, "I won't blame you. We mountain people are not that stingy. You can ask whatever you want, and I also want to know what strange things happened to you on Chenling."
Li Bing tactfully told the story about Zhang Mei who unfortunately fell from the Chenling cliff and died at the aunt's house. Then he said word for word: "I suspect that Zhang Mei did not fall to her death by herself."
Yes, but there is something hidden in it.”
As soon as Li Bing said this, the Zhang family suddenly burst into flames. After a brief silence, they suddenly started to cry loudly.
The crying attracted the attention of the neighbor next door, so Li Bing had to quietly tell Zhang Mei's father and ask him to persuade the neighbor to leave before he could reveal the secret.
Zhang Mei's father suppressed his grief, persuaded the neighbors to leave, and closed the door.
Li Bing then said: "My brother Zhang is a Taoist priest from Maoshan Mountain and is quite spiritual. Yesterday we went up to Chenling Mountain to play. When we came down from the mountain, it was already dark. It was at the place where the aunt mentioned that Zhang Mei fell.
, we encountered a strange thing."
The whole Zhang family stared at Li Bing in surprise, and Li Bing continued steadily: "Under the mountain, a ghost in red appeared. Originally, I, Brother Zhang, wanted to use Maoshan Taoism to disperse the ghost.
The ghost’s soul. Who would have expected that although the ghost can’t speak, it has no ill intentions towards us and instead bows to us.”
"Brother Zhang knew that this ghost would definitely die with his eyes open. Just by chance, he wanted Brother Zhang to redress her grievances. Brother Zhang agreed to her request, and the ghost dispersed."
He glanced at everyone and saw that everyone had stopped crying, with expressions on their faces that were both frightened and surprised. Then he said: "We came to your village today just for this reason and agreed to the ghost's promise.
.During the conversation with my aunt, I unexpectedly learned that the place was where Zhang Mei died, and coincidentally, Zhang Mei happened to be wearing a red cotton-padded jacket when she died."
"That's why we suspected that this ghost was Zhang Mei. Her appearance and asking us for help meant that she probably didn't fall to death by herself, but was plotted against her and fell down the mountain to her death."
The Zhang family couldn't help but burst into tears when they heard this, especially Zhang Mei's mother, who cried like a tear. She yelled and cursed the evil man who had plotted against Zhang Mei.
Zhang Mei's father was also extremely grieved, but after all, he had seen a lot of the world outside. Resisting the grief of losing his daughter, he asked in a hoarse voice: "Brother, what is your surname?"
Li Bing hurriedly reached out his hand, shook hands with Zhang Mei's father and said, "Your surname is Li!"
Zhang Mei's father asked sadly and angrily: "Brother Li, do you have any evidence? Everyone in our village knows that my daughter went up the mountain to pick herbs and unfortunately fell to death. If we just rely on your few words to confirm that I
My daughter was killed by someone, so if she wrongfully accuses someone else, it would be a big sin."
Li Bing asked him, but he thought it was reasonable, and he didn't have any good ideas for a while.
Seeing this, Shi Liya whispered a few times into Li Bing's ear.
Li Bing was stunned at first, and then showed a look of joy. But when he saw that the Zhang family was grieving, he immediately felt something was wrong and quickly stopped smiling.
Li Bing said to Zhang Mei's father: "Don't worry, my brother Zhang is a Taoist, and he will naturally have a way to prove it. As long as you go see the ghost and see if it is your daughter."
As soon as Zhang Yuanshan told Li Bing, he secretly complained in his heart: "Li Bing, what are you doing? You know that I have no ability to summon this kind of ownerless soul, but you are blaming it on me."
He caught a glimpse of the Zhang family staring at him, but he didn't dare to ruin Li Bing's important matter. Although he was confused, he readily agreed.
Under Zhang Yuanshan's instructions, the Zhang family prepared their daughter's birthday horoscopes and incense paper candles, and without telling many of their neighbors, they headed for Chenling with Li Bing and his entourage.
Although the villagers were also suspicious, Zhang Mei's father said that those people were Zhang Mei's classmates from outside the country. Occasionally they heard that Zhang Mei was dead, so they came together to pay their respects. They thought it was human nature, so they gave up.
All questions answered.
Everyone was silent all the way, and came to the cliff in Chenling. They looked at the sky and saw that the sun was still hanging in the sky. They had to be patient and wait anxiously for dark.
When the sun set in the west, Zhang's family laid out offerings at the foot of the mountain, lit incense and candles, and began to pay homage to their daughter's deceased soul.
The sky had completely darkened. Zhang Yuanshan tried to recite the soul-calling spell, but the ghost of the female ghost in red never appeared.
