Chapter 10 Corpse
I have been searching for the Zhou family for so long, but it turns out that the ghost is hidden in that garden!
If that wronged soul is found, then the source of Zhou Tiantian’s crying in the middle of the night will be found.
It turned out that I always thought that the Zhou family was haunted must have a lot to do with this Zhou Haitao. After all, I believed that the old monk and that little girl said, and believed that Zhou Haitao was dead. Now I still believe that they did not lie to me, but what they saw was a person who looked very similar to Zhou Haitao, and they mistakenly thought it was Zhou Haitao.
I said that the Zhou family villa was originally a place of a yin tomb. Before building the house, countless people were buried underground. It is not surprising that haunted things will happen in this house.
It is possible that the crying sound of Zhou Tiantian in the middle of the night was made by a wronged soul who had nothing to do with the Zhou family. This is what I think now.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to pass on this unjust soul, and the haunted incident of the Zhou family will be solved.
Isn’t it a piece of cake to me for the passing of ghosts?
"Ye Meng, tell me, where is the wronged soul you smelled?" I wanted to find the hiding place of the wronged soul.
"I'm not sure..." Ye Meng pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that behind the rockery in the garden, I want to confirm further, but I was itchy all over by the talisman you said."
"Back to the rockery?" I had no choice but to admit now that Ye Meng's nose was much better than my compass, and even this one could smell it.
"It should be there," Ye Meng said with certainty: "Don't forget, I'm a ghost..."
I nodded and said, "Sun Yue, we have something to do tonight."
"Tonight?" Sun Yue looked shocked: "Brother, what are you going to do?"
"Go to the Zhou family with you," I smiled and said, "Let's go to the Zhou family garden to dig up the corpse!"
"I'll go," Sun Yue looked disgusted: "I'll ask me to do the digging of the corpse. Did you think I'm your sister?"
My black thread on my forehead: "I didn't look for you before, but you said you didn't give you a chance to practice. Now I'm looking for you, and you're picky and picky. I really don't know what to say about you. If you don't go, I can go alone."
"Okay, okay," Sun Yue quickly changed his words when he heard this, "It's okay if I'm with you."
"Sun Heng, then I'm going to go too." Ye Meng smiled and said.
"Ye Meng, you can't go," I said with a solemn face: "Did you forget that the Zhou family has a talisman? That talisman is too powerful and may make you lose your soul."
"Yes, Ye Meng," Sun Yue also advised: "You might as well stay. I'll just go with my brother. Anyway, digging up the body is not a good job."
I glared at Sun Yue, and then Sun Yue covered her mouth and stopped talking.
In the middle of the night, the stars were dim, and even the lonely moon hid in the cloud curtain, as if it could not bear to witness the filth of this world.
I have come to Zhou’s villa so many times and have already mastered the environment here, so it is not difficult for me to enter the Zhou family. Moreover, the Zhou’s villa is so big and there are few people living there, which also provides us with convenience.
Sun Yue and I sneaked into the garden of Zhou's villa without any effort. In the middle of the night, the garden looked even more gloomy and terrifying.
However, both of us brothers and sisters deal with ghosts, and even the most feared ghosts have seen them, so these things cannot scare us at all.
When I entered the garden, I started looking for the rockery that Ye Meng mentioned. Fortunately, although the garden was large, there was only one rockery and I found it in less than a minute or two.
The rockery is against the wall behind it, but there is a hidden open space between the rockery and the wall, and it is mud. The place Ye Meng mentioned should be there.
When Sun Yue and I arrived, we had already prepared a small shovel for excavation. At that moment, we started digging in the open space.
Until now, Sun Yue still looked disgusted, digging while pouting and not talking.
I was too lazy to care about her, I just wanted to dig out the body quickly, and then help it to cross it and let it leave the Zhou family. After these things are done, I can go to Zhou Haitao to get my wages tomorrow.
After digging about one or two meters, I suddenly felt something touching my shovel. This thing was obviously different from the surrounding soil, and it was very likely that it was a corpse!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but get excited and quickly digged two more shovels. Sure enough, a piece of black thing appeared from the soil. Although only part of it was exposed, I was already sure it was a corpse.
Ye Meng was right, there was indeed a corpse buried behind the rockery.
When Sun Yue saw the corpse, he became excited. He swept away all the disgusting looks just now. He quickly helped to shovel the soil next to the corpse, so that all the corpse could be exposed.
The body had been dug out, but it was rotten and there was no way to see what it looked like.
However, according to my experience, this corpse was not left behind by the previous yin tomb, but a very new corpse. The deceased will not die for more than half a year!
How could there be a body in the Zhou family’s villa that had been dead for less than half a year?
I was just astonished and puzzled when I suddenly heard the rustling sound of the bushes behind me.
"Who?" I whispered.
Sun Yue also heard the sound of the bushes over there, and looked at the bushes with a nervous look.
Obviously, compared with the corpse in front of me, the noise there was even more terrifying.
This is the mentality of a person. Things that cannot be seen will always be terrifying than things that are seen, because what you see is already fixed, while things that cannot be seen may be in any shape.
Compared with the two, which one do you think is more terrifying?
After all, I am a man and have more courage than Sun Yue, so I turned around and slowly approached the bushes.
Whether it is a god or a ghost, I have to see its true nature.
When Sun Yue saw me walking towards the bushes, her face turned pale. If something happened to me and she left her alone, she wouldn't know what to do.
I was getting closer and closer to the bushes. The bushes were very dense and I couldn't see anything inside from the outside. Because of this, I was actually a little cowardly.
As I approached the bush, I suddenly stretched out my long arms and pulled someone out of the bush.
Because I tried too hard, the man was sobbing that he screamed. When I heard the man's scream, my heart suddenly felt relieved because ghosts would not call him like this.
When I saw the person's face, I was shocked. It turned out that the person was Zhou Haitao's nephew Gao Ce!
I know that Gao Ce has sleepwalking disease, but judging from his current appearance, he is obviously very awake and doesn't look like he is sleepwalking at all. Did he say that he pretends to sleepwalking?
"Gaoce, it's midnight, why are you here?" I asked in a deep voice.
"I...I..." Gao Ce stammered for a long time, probably not wanting to say it.
"Gaoce, if you don't say it, we will tell your uncle to go!" Sun Yue came over and threatened Gaoce.
Gao Ce pursed his dry lips and then honestly explained: "I sneaked out tonight to play, climbed over the wall from the garden, heard a sound here, so I walked over to see what was going on. I didn't expect you, brothers and sisters..."
"Well, you're honest," I patted the boy's head and said, "Go back to bed quickly, I'll go to school tomorrow."
Sun Yue and I sneaked in, and I wanted to send this kid away as soon as possible.
"Then I'll go back to bed first, beg you." Gao Ce waved to me and Sun Yue, and was about to leave.
Suddenly, he saw a lot of soil digging out from the rockery, and he became curious and ran over there.
When I saw it, I was very anxious, but the boy ran so fast that it was too late to stop him.
As soon as Gao Ce walked to the back of the rockery, he saw a corpse lying straight there, and screamed loudly.
"Diet! Dead!... There are dead here!"
It's midnight now, and when Gao Ce's call, he could hear it in almost every place in the Zhou family villa.
Soon, everyone in the Zhou family was awakened. Zhou Haitao and the butler Lao Luo rushed over. Zhou Haitao was still wearing pajamas and only had a long coat. Lao Luo was wearing a flashlight in his hand to shine the way for Zhou Haitao.
When Zhou Haitao saw me, he looked shocked: "Master Sun, why are you here?"
I couldn't answer his question, so I could only smile awkwardly.
Seeing Gao Ce, Lao Luo said angrily: "You little brat, you are in the middle of the night, why are you screaming here?"
"Corps...corpse...corpse," Gao Ce pointed to the rockery with horror face: "There are...corpses over there..."
Seeing Gao Ce pointing to the rockery, Zhou Tao's face changed slightly.
Lao Luo came over and patted Gao Ce's head, and scolded angrily: "You little brat, are you sleepwalking again? There is no body in our Zhou family? If you say such unlucky words, be careful that I will sew your mouth on it!"
"Really... there are really corpses, don't believe...you...you go and see..." Gao Ce did not dare to approach the rockery anymore and asked Lao Luo to see it himself.
Lao Luo was half-believing and half-doubted and muttered, "I'll go and see it. If there are no corpses, I'll give you a few chestnuts to eat!"
As he said that, Lao Luo walked to the rockery and shone with the flashlight in his hand. He couldn't help but scream in fear, and the flashlight in his hand almost fell to the ground.
He ran to Zhou Haitao with a pale face and said tremblingly: "Mr. Zhou, then... there is really a... a corpse over there..."
When Zhou Haitao heard this, his body seemed to be shocked and murmured: "How is it possible...how is it possible?"
"Mr. Zhou, this is true," I walked up to Zhou Haitao and said, "This corpse was just dug out."
"Just dug out?" Zhou Haitao seemed unable to accept this fact: "How come my Zhou family buried a body?"
"I should ask you this question." I smiled faintly.
"Master Sun, what do you mean by saying that?" Zhou Haitao looked a little unhappy.
"This corpse looks very new, and the deceased only seems to have only been half a year, which means that he died after your Zhou family built a house." I expressed my opinion and also expressed my questions to Zhou Haitao.
Just as Zhou Haitao was about to continue the conversation, he looked at Gao Ce who was standing beside him and said to him: "Gao Ce, there is nothing you have to do here, you can go back and sleep first."
Gao Ce just returned home in the middle of the night and was worried that Zhou Haitao would punish him. Now when he heard Zhou Haitao let him go, he was eager to leave quickly, and he left without a trace in the blink of an eye.
After Gao Ce left, Zhou Haitao said, "Master Sun, you broke into my house in the middle of the night. I think you should know the origin of this corpse better than me, otherwise how did you know that there was a corpse buried here?"
After Zhou Haitao said this, I was speechless. I couldn't say that this was told by a female ghost named Ye Meng, right? Even if this statement is said, no one will believe it.
So, I can only bypass this question for the time being and say something else.
"Mr. Zhou, you asked me to investigate the reason why your family cried in the middle of the night. I think I have found it," I said, "It should be this corpse."
"Oh, then your job is completed, I will ask Lao Luo to settle your wages tomorrow." Zhou Haitao's tone sounded much more relaxed.
I ignored what he said and continued: "It's just that this corpse is highly decayed and cannot tell his identity, so..."
"What did you decide?" Zhou Haitao asked with concern.
"However, this is also a life," I looked at Zhou Haitao and said, "So I plan to notify the police and ask the police to extract the DNA of the body and verify the identity of the deceased. I don't know that Mr. Zhou, do you agree with my approach?"
