Shen Bing thought the same as I did, sneering, "There are so many people trying to cheat people out of money nowadays, maybe he is looking for a fake one?"
Zhang Jinsheng shook his head and said, "You all know that I am in this business. I have made friends with many real fortune tellers and ask them for advice on Feng Shui. The fortune tellers I hire are definitely not fake."
I couldn't help but wonder, since they couldn't find anything wrong, it meant his sister really had a difficult and complicated disease. My buddy once said that the Heavenly Master was not omnipotent, just like I made mistakes with the living corpse, and the sexy ghost Xiao Jin in Maoshan. If a master like that was possessed, it would be really difficult to detect.
"So what do you think of us?" Shen Bing asked.
I thought to myself that you are trying to solicit business again, but the question is wrong, it's not reasonable.
"No, not at all. This move of yours really opened my eyes. I thought he was a god." Zhang Jinsheng flattered him as much as he could, and then continued, "I invited you home, and also wanted you to help my sister."
I nodded and said, "That's no problem. I'll go check out where they live later."
"Just rent a house at the east end of town."
After finishing the bottle of liquor and eating the steaming pancakes, he felt very comfortable. He asked Zhang Jinsheng to lead the way to his sister's house. On the way, he said that his sister was originally from Celi Village, seven or eight miles away from here, but she got this strange disease a few years ago, so she let them live in the town. Since there was no room at home, she rented a house so that she could take them to see a doctor and also do some small business with her brother-in-law to support the family.
When I heard what was going on, I looked at Shen Bing in surprise. I remembered that the old woman said that Baihua Valley was this village. Shen Bing also remembered it, and stared with astonishment.
"How many Celi villages do you have here?" I asked with a frown.
"Just one, what's wrong?" Zhang Jinsheng was a little confused when he saw that my face looked strange.
"Which direction is the village?"
Zhang Jinsheng pointed to the north: "Near the foot of the mountain, right over there."
"How far is it from Baihua Valley?" I felt more and more that something was wrong.
"Over that mountain is the White Flower Valley, separated by a mountain."
I looked over there in amazement, and felt a chill rising in my heart. It turned out that Celi Village and Baihua Valley were only separated by a mountain. The old woman was probably not lying, she was really from Celi Village. So I stopped and asked, "Are there many old ladies in the village?"
Zhang Jinsheng scratched his head and laughed, "What a question! Which village doesn't have many old ladies?"
"How old are they?" Shen Bing asked nervously.
"Oh, that's hard to say. I heard there are several centenarians who have lived to be over a hundred years old."
Shen Bing and I immediately changed color. Could it be that the old lady was a human being, not a ghost? This was a bit puzzling. A person of such an old age suddenly appeared in Baihua Valley, sent me to the tomb without anyone noticing, and then buried Shen Bing alive. Who would believe this
"What's wrong with you two?" Zhang Jinsheng asked in surprise.
I shook my head. "Nothing. I remember you told us that a woman died unjustly in Baihua Valley. Did she die in Celi Village or Baihua Valley? Was she from Celi Village?"
Zhang Jinsheng was stunned and said, "I don't know about that. I heard about this from the elders. It happened many years ago."
At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked very wealthy greeted him. He was wearing brand-name clothes and a pair of leather shoes that were polished to a shiny black.
