"When our family moved here, there was indeed a cemetery here."
After listening to An Xuan's words, I knew that things were not simple. If we had to know something, then we had to know something about the Xu family.
Today, I don’t know if the heavens sensed something, and the sun failed to show up. Now the sky outside is gloomy, and the location we are in adds to the gloomy atmosphere here.
"Then do you know the reason why your Xu family moved here? Who would be willing to build a house next to the cemetery? Isn't this deliberately making trouble for yourself?"
I asked, Xu Mang was at a loss, looking at his face, he could tell that he was hiding something, but even if he didn't say anything, it made me anxious and angry.
After dawdling for a long time, he finally said softly: "I... I don't know either."
I was about to kneel down to him. If he didn’t know, I would have admitted earlier that I didn’t know. After dawdling for so long, I thought he was going to tell me some big news, so I had to organize my words.
I don't know what words to use to describe my mood at the moment.
complex? Helpless
However, I'm not stupid. Through his actions, I know that Uncle Xu Mang must know something, but he just doesn't tell us, he just wants to hide it.
At this point, he indirectly harmed a group of people in the An family, not to mention the failure of the exorcism ceremony, doesn't he have any idea of redemption
What kind of big thing is it that you just refuse to reveal a little bit
Chris's good temper seemed to have been worn out by him, and he immediately stood up from his seat and pulled off his suit.
"Since you have not cooperated, we have nothing to say. Let's go. Don't forget to reimburse the hospitalization expenses of the An family. As for exorcising ghosts, we can't do it."
Chris's voice was very decisive, and he walked towards the door without hesitation after speaking. I looked at Xu Mang helplessly, and followed him out.
"Wait a minute... please wait a moment."
Xu Mang chased after him and hurried to keep us. I sighed, looked at him and said, "Uncle Xu, we want to help you if you are not willing to cooperate with us."
He wiped his forehead again, and finally, as if he had made a major decision, he shook his hands and said, "I... I said, I said, I explained everything."
Wouldn't it be okay to do this sooner
I stopped in my tracks, ready to hear what he had to say.
Xu Mang was drenched in sweat and trembling nervously: "Actually, when our ancestors moved here, this place was already a cemetery. At that time, our ancestors said that the Feng Shui here is very good, so they didn't care about the cemetery."
"Then what?"
I pushed him, for fear that he would choke out such a sentence, and then fall silent again, like squeezing toothpaste, the toothpaste won't come out if no one presses it behind the tube.
"Later, my ancestor passed away for unknown reasons, so he was buried in a nearby cemetery. Later, something happened at home."
I frowned, no, if that troublesome guy in the cemetery is Xu Mang's ancestor, then why did he die in the first place
Normal death, the soul will not stay in the world.
Moreover, a hundred years have passed, and it is too long for him, how can it be possible not to become a demon.
Now I am still a difficult ghost with a hundred years of practice, I covered my head and glanced at Chris and An Xuan, wondering what they were thinking.
"Then tell me what happened and how did your ancestor die."
Xu Mang looked unwilling to speak, and we used up our last patience to wait for him to speak.
Finally, as if he had figured it out, he said in a very soft voice: "Actually...he died suddenly. The main reason he decided to move his family here was not Feng Shui."
He looked at us with some fear, his eyes full of confusion.
"He said that after receiving the decree from God, God has given us a new mission in the Xu family, and let us come here to guard this cemetery from generation to generation."
I was dumbfounded when I heard this. He hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Look, even if I tell you, you won't believe me, and you will treat me as a mental patient."
"God's order? Given a mission?"
I raised my eyebrows and repeated in amazement, resisting the urge to spray water. What he said was even more inconceivable than the phrase "there are ghosts in the world"!
But I haven't forgotten that the pervert told me before that although he lives in the underworld, he is correctly identified as a god, and I know that there are gods in the world.
Even so, I don't think God would do such a silly and funny thing.
The pervert was actually by my side all the time, didn't speak, but reacted a little when he heard Xu Mang's words.
Chris also looked at him, as if asking for advice, while the pervert shook his head, and I noticed the turmoil in his eyes.
"Then your whole family moved here, and then your ancestor died suddenly, and the number of people in your family began to decline and become scarce."
An Xuan pinched his chin, thought about it for a while, and had a guess in his heart.
"Are you sure your ancestors received an oracle, not a ghost?"
I had this thought too, but I didn't say it clearly.
"I think this is a bit the same as the last time I encountered a generational curse. This place is definitely not a good place, and the cemetery is the same."
An Xuan and Chris didn't know about Yu Gong's family, I just mentioned it casually, they seemed to be engrossed in their own thoughts, and didn't ask any more questions.
"The oracle asked you to guard this cemetery for generations? I'm afraid it didn't make you become soul keeper?"
Chris crossed his arms and uttered a new word I hadn't heard.
"Soul Gravekeeper?"
He nodded: "There are also many cases in foreign countries, because there are some very remote cemeteries in foreign countries, where there are special people guarding the tombs, but most of them are alone, with few family members."
"There is a saying."
He suddenly lowered his face, and said in a gloomy voice: "It is said that the yang energy of these tomb guards is not enough to support them to guard a cemetery, so..."
Before Chris could continue, I suddenly felt enlightened and enlightened.
I combined the two things before and after, and finally came to a conclusion.
"So these yang qi were taken from the family members he should have been born in? It is because of this reason that anyone who works in this business will have a family fortune?"
Chris smiled awkwardly: "I didn't say that, it's just a guess."
"Moreover." Chris then set his eyes on Xu Mang, he received the eyes of a pervert, and his voice was filled with regret, "I'm afraid your ancestors didn't receive the oracle, but some bad, and Very powerful guy, he took a fancy to your strong connections at that time, so he chose your ancestors and let your family move here."
"To put it bluntly, everyone in your family, whether they are born or not, are all victims."
I sighed and glanced at Xu Mang who was full of despair.
He didn't seem to have thought that things would develop like this, and he definitely wasn't mentally prepared to accept this almost factual guess.
"As for the reason for your ancestor's sudden death."
An Xuan glanced at the cemetery surrounded by green trees not far away, and said calmly: "We have to find out to find out."
The man next to me finally spoke, but the words shocked me.
"I'm afraid his purpose is not as simple as just wanting a soul tomb keeper."
When I heard this, my eyes drooped, and Xu Mang, a big man, fell to the ground and couldn't stand up for a long time.
Sweat was dripping down his pale face, down his cheeks.
"I want to go see Grandpa An and the others first. When they were exorcising ghosts, they should have seen those two guys in the cemetery."
Chris tidied up his suit, took his time and did not rush at all: "Now is not the time to be reckless, let's visit Patriarch An first, and then discuss countermeasures."
"Just me and you, there is no way to perform the exorcism ceremony."
I clicked on the pervert: "Isn't it enough to have him?"
A strange smile suddenly appeared on Chris's face, and he asked with a narrow smile, "Are you willing to put your husband under such pressure?"
"Lord Hades is busy enough to deal with the affairs of the underworld. This incident happened in the underworld, and it belongs to the jurisdiction of our exorcists. It is not enough for the ruler of the underworld to help."
A layer of arrogance suddenly appeared on his face: "If everything is done by your husband, the exorcist, exorcist, and all the psychics don't need to exist."
When we were about to leave, Xu Mang still had a shocked expression on his face, and he collapsed to the ground limply.
I felt pity for him in my heart. Maybe he also noticed the weirdness of the cemetery, so he only asked for foreign aid until now.
It's just that he still can't digest this fact.
Give him more time.
Let's take our leave first and go to a central hospital in the city.
Grandpa an and the others were admitted to the hospital because of internal injuries.
This kind of unnatural injury, the medical side may not be able to detect any problems, but they only know that their physical indicators are not very good.
When we arrived at the hospital, Grandpa An was sitting on the bed. In front of him was an automatic dining table that usually placed food trays. There were several thick books on it. He was scribbling in a notebook with a pen in one hand.
He had a look of surprise on his face when he saw me and Chris.
Maybe our appearance was completely unexpected to him.
"You are... from the David family." He shook his gray eyebrows and said firmly.
Now it's An Xuan and I's turn to be surprised. In my impression, Grandpa An has been staying in his shroud shop all the time.
Not to mention knowing what his family is.
Grandpa An chuckled, with a smile on his tired and weak face: "Don't be surprised, when David was a baby, his father brought him to our house as a guest."
By the way, he raised his hand and waved it, half-jokingly said: "At that time, our two families even booked a baby kiss."
I was stunned, and a bad feeling suddenly rose in my heart.
"That's right, it's Ning girl. That guy and I made the appointment as a joke before. After so many years, why did I recognize you at a glance?"
His eyes turned to the ring on Chris' finger: "It turns out that this ring is worn around your neck, and it is the family treasure of the David family."
