Since the old lady didn't go, she had her own reasons for not going. Ren Xiaofan didn't hesitate to ask more questions. After each of him and Li Wanyan put on a mask, they went out and followed the villagers who were helping.
Although the back mountain is not very far away, it is the place where the dead are buried after all, and it cannot be too close to the place where the living live.
Therefore, I walked a long way and didn't stop until I was close to the back mountain, halfway up the mountain.
Ren Xiaofan took a look around and judged from his studies in the past few days that this place was indeed good.
There is a small stream at the foot of the mountain, which can be regarded as being surrounded by mountains and rivers. There are other hills surrounding it, which can hardly be regarded as majestic.
"Let's just go here. It's surrounded by mountains and rivers. It's a beautiful scenery that will bless your descendants." The middle-aged monk turned around with a compass in his hand, and finally chose a place halfway up the mountain.
"It all depends on the arrangement of the Taoist priest."
The person who spoke was a man. I don’t know who the deceased was, but he seemed to be about the same age as a middle-aged monk. However, he was quite well-built, and he looked like a man who often ate big fish and meat.
After choosing a place, the host called for help and started digging.
Ren Xiaofan watched from a distance and quickly concluded that the person who died in this family must be an elder. Because the people who died were of different generations, the depth of the hole dug was also particular. This was recorded in the Yin and Yang Dao, and he remembered it very well.
clear.
As for Li Wanyan, she didn't look over there at all. Instead, she took out a compass and looked here and there along the way, counting with her fingers from time to time.
Ren Xiaofan only understood the compass theoretically, but had never actually used it, so he didn't know what this girl was planning. But looking at Li Wanyan's posture, he felt that it was more reliable than that of the middle-aged monk.
And just when he thought so, he heard Li Wanyan, holding a compass, speaking to him with a solemn expression, "Brother Xiao Fan, I feel something is wrong. This place is a bit like a corpse raising ground."
"What did you say?" Ren Xiaofan was startled.
Corpse raising ground, these three words are a big taboo in Feng Shui for burying people. Corpse raising grounds are generally shady places, and it is best if the Yin Qi gathers. If the corpse is buried in this place for a long time, it will produce
Zombie transformation. Generally evil spirits will use this to create zombies, and then use spells to control them to achieve their own purposes.
But he took a look around. Firstly, this place was not very shady, and the sun could shine during the day. Secondly, there was no yin energy. How could he talk about the place to raise corpses? Could it be that Li Wanyan had made a miscalculation?
?
"It's true, Brother Xiaofan, look."
Seeing Ren Xiaofan's suspicious expression, Li Wanyan became a little anxious and quickly pointed to the place where they were digging, "This is the innate corpse raising ground. There are no intersections on the mountain, and halfway up the mountain is far away from the river. The energy from the surface of the mountains and rivers lurks too deep underground, and the corpses
It is difficult to rot. Xiaoyi Tun is far away from the crematorium, and there are usually no sparks after death, so... if the corpse is buried here, something will happen."
Ren Xiaofan actually guessed correctly. This was indeed the first time for Li Wanyan to go out on her own and do a mission.
Therefore, she did a lot of homework before coming here.
In villages like this, which are far away from the outskirts of the city, due to inconvenient transportation, most people are not taken to the crematorium after death, but are directly carried to a place with good feng shui for burial.
"What...are you talking about? Why can't I understand you?"
Ren Xiaofan was a little confused when he heard it. There was no record of the yin and yang path such as the innate corpse raising place and the mountain with no fork in the road. Therefore, seeing what this girl said was so clear and logical, he was a little confused for a moment.
"Ah? This, this..." Li Wanyan was stunned for a moment. These are the ancestral Feng Shui techniques in their family and are not passed down to others. Unexpectedly, she actually said it outright in a hurry.
Fortunately, she looked at Ren Xiaofan and didn't understand, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I saw these in an ancient book. They are true anyway. Brother Xiaofan, believe me.
If they really bury the body here, something will happen."
Li Wanyan said, holding Ren Xiaofan's arm again with both hands, looking anxious.
Ren Xiaofan ignored her grabbing his arm because he was already used to it.
Although I didn't understand what this girl said, I remembered the phenomena she mentioned clearly. So I looked up and down the mountain respectively, and found that it was indeed what she said.
This made Ren Xiaofan frown immediately. Although Li Wanyan made him feel very innocent and easy to deceive, Ren Xiaofan still believed in the authenticity of what she said.
So what made him frown was not this, but the current situation. The owner obviously believed in the middle-aged monk. If he ran to the owner now and said, "This is a corpse raising ground, you can't bury people and so on."
...", I am afraid that I will definitely be talked nonsense on the spot.
Although Li Wanyan was simple, she was not a fool. She also knew that if she just ran up to her and said something, others would not believe her. So she had no good solution.
"It turns out that the two fellow Taoists didn't leave. I thought you left last night."
And just as the two of them were standing here thinking about how to explain it to their host, the middle-aged monk's voice suddenly came over.
This time he was too lazy to pretend to Ren Xiaofan and the others. He walked up to the two of them with a sneer on his face and said: "Haha, it seems that these five points are very important to fellow Taoists. They are all chasing me here."
Ren Xiaofan's brows furrowed even more, and he watched him utter one word coldly, "Get out!"
He was in a bad mood and came here just to relax. So he didn't have the good temper to listen to him being "sarcastic" here. Last night, he was pulled away quickly by Li Wanyan. Otherwise, if he said one more thing, he would be fine.
Xiaofan would never tolerate his mistakes.
"What did you say!"
The middle-aged monk was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that Ren Xiaofan would dare to let him go. A loser who was not even a monk dared to be so arrogant like him, which made him furious.
"I'm telling you to get lost. Get out of here now, immediately!"
He didn't like ink stains, so since he couldn't tell his owner clearly, he might as well just drive this guy away.
They have buried all the corpses in the corpse raising ground, and you still want points for this? Just dream.
"Boy, I think you are impatient. How dare you talk to me like this!!!" The middle-aged monk gritted his teeth and raised his fist to hit Ren Xiaofan.
His punch was powerful, and there was a layer of Tao Qi wrapped around the fist. If Ren Xiaofan were an ordinary person, this punch would not only kill him but also cripple him.
However, there are no ifs in this world, and Ren Xiaofan is not an ordinary person. He didn't even bother to hide, and directly raised his kick and kicked the middle-aged monk in the stomach.
boom!
Why are arms as long as legs? Therefore, without any surprise, the middle-aged monk was directly kicked by Ren Xiaofan and flew out, and then hit the ground heavily.
"To be continued..."
