The turmoil in the Yao family villa was over for the time being. We chatted with Yao Ziqiang for a few more words, and then we covered his mother's crystal coffin together.
Pushing the lid of the coffin, Yao Ziqiang supported the coffin and sobbed slightly: "To be honest, mother, I am really not willing to bury you and that bastard together, but I don't want you to die in peace, as long as you can leave.
Don’t worry, I rely on you in everything.”
Next, Yao Ziqiang said that he would let Mai Xiaorou and I stay in his villa, while he called the funeral home and the people attending the funeral tomorrow to inform them that tomorrow's funeral was arranged in the countryside.
At the same time, he also called his friend in the countryside and asked him to find someone to dig a grave next to his father's grave to bury his mother.
As soon as the phone call was made, Yao Ziqiang made all the arrangements for tomorrow's funeral. It must be said that he is still somewhat capable.
Seeing that Yao Ziqiang had almost arranged everything, Mai Xiaorou and I no longer stayed in the living room, but went to the room Yao Ziqiang arranged for us.
Mai Xiaorou's injuries are getting worse and she needs to be nursed back to health.
This time Yao Ziqiang did not leave home again, but stayed beside his mother with peace of mind, guarding her coffin. Not only that, he also called his wife and children back.
It was almost evening when Yao Ziqiang's wife drove over with her son, and Mai Xiaorou and I saw them during dinner in the evening.
Yao Ziqiang's wife is called Lin Hui. She is a very gentle woman. She speaks softly and will do whatever Yao Ziqiang asks her to do immediately.
Yao Ziqiang's son is named Yao Liangliang, who has just entered junior high school. His personality is very similar to Lin Hui. From a glance, you can tell that Yao Liangliang usually spends more time with Lin Hui.
Lin Hui knew very well about the identities of Mai Xiaorou and I, so she didn't ask any more questions.
After dinner, we just exchanged a few polite words and went back to our houses to rest. We didn't say a word to each other about what happened during the day.
After returning to the room, Mai Xiaorou asked me: "Chen Yu, do you think Yao Ziqiang will beat his wife and children? I just saw Lin Hui who seemed to be afraid of Yao Ziqiang, and Yao Liangliang, looking at Yao Ziqiang
Sometimes, my eyes always dodge, and I am obviously afraid."
I have never thought about this. If Yao Zi beat his mother, his wife and children, what is the difference between him and his father?
But we cannot conclude based on the attitudes of Lin Hui and Yao Liangliang that Yao Ziqiang beat them. Lin Hui's humble attitude may be just because she has no financial status. Judging from her appearance, she should be a housewife.
As for Yao Liangliang, he is still a child. If Yao Ziqiang is usually strict with him, it makes sense that he is afraid of Yao Ziqiang.
I told Mai Xiaorou my analysis. Before she could reply to me, our door rang. When I asked who it was, I heard Lin Hui's voice: "It's me, Lin Hui."
I went over to open the door for Lin Hui and asked her if she had anything to do with us. Lin Hui said, "Actually, it's nothing. I just wanted to ask you about my mother-in-law."
With that said, Lin Hui looked downstairs.
I told her that those matters had been resolved and there would be no more trouble, so that she could rest assured. Then I asked sideways whether Yao Ziqiang also had a tendency of domestic violence towards her and her children.
Lin Hui was very smart. After hearing my question, she said in a very gentle voice: "Master Chen is worrying too much. Ziqiang is a very good person. He may have a bad temper because of the recent pressure. He
Although I have beaten my mother-in-law, I have never touched my children. Before that, our family lived in harmony."
"The reason why my children and I are afraid of Ziqiang is because he beat my mother-in-law, but he didn't do anything to us."
After saying this, Lin Hui asked us again: "My mother-in-law has passed away, and Ziqiang's temper should gradually get better."
Mai Xiaorou and I didn't speak. None of us dared to promise Lin Hui this point.
And those things are beyond our control.
After chatting for a while, Lin Hui went back to the house to rest.
The rest of the night was peaceful, there was no sound from the crystal coffin on the first floor, and Yao Ziqiang's mother did not open her eyes again.
Early the next morning, a motorcade began to arrive in front of the Yao family's villa area. After a simple coffin lifting ceremony, several young people came, then lifted the crystal coffin and loaded it onto the hearse smoothly.
Then we followed the motorcade to Yao Ziqiang’s hometown.
The funeral procession was very large and attracted a lot of people's attention along the way. Almost everyone from the village went to Yao Ziqiang's hometown. Some helped, some watched the fun, and some mourned with Yao Ziqiang.
After arriving here, according to the request of another Mr. Yin and Yang that Yao Zi forcibly invited, the crystal coffin was replaced with a wooden coffin that had been prepared long ago, and then the coffin was sealed and buried before twelve o'clock.
Originally, Yao Ziqiang wanted Mai Xiaorou and I to preside over the funeral, but the two of us refused. We said that we were only responsible for exorcising evil spirits and catching ghosts, not hosting the ceremony.
After we refused, Yao Ziqiang invited another Yin Yang.
As for that Yin Yang, Mai Xiaorou secretly told me that he has no real ability and is just a guy who uses his words to deceive people.
The whole funeral went smoothly. After Yao Ziqiang's mother was buried, her ghosts dispersed. The life soul attached to the body also slowly floated out after the ghosts dispersed. The two life souls reunited again.
Because Yao Ziqiang's mother's reincarnation time has not yet arrived, the soul of life needs to stay in the world for a while, and the soul of earth must go to the underworld to undergo some hardships.
The queue waiting for the funeral dispersed, but Mai Xiaorou and I still stayed in front of the grave.
After a while, the twin souls of Yao Ziqiang's mother and the soul of another middle-aged man wearing a black shroud walked out of the grave together.
Yao Ziqiang's father died of drinking when he was middle-aged. That male ghost should be Yao Ziqiang's father.
The couple really reunited here.
Yao Ziqiang's mother and the man knelt down to me and Mai Xiaorou, and we quickly asked them to get up.
Although they are ghosts, they are also elders, and we cannot bear this kind of worship.
After they straightened up, Yao Ziqiang's father said: "Thank you. If it weren't for you, Ziqiang wouldn't have sent my wife to me. If my wife didn't come back to me, I would never have the chance to be reincarnated."
I was too useless when I was young. My earthly soul suffered in the underworld these years, and my life soul also sensed it. I have deeply felt my mistake."
Yao Ziqiang's mother also said: "In the days when I was about to die, I often thought of him, and as a soul, he also sensed that I was thinking of him, so he took the initiative to come to my dream to apologize to me and beg me to come back.
, Really, I have been waiting for him to admit his mistake to me for a lifetime. Although I am already dead, I finally waited and I can rest in peace!"
It seems that Yao Ziqiang's father has sincerely repented, and Yao Ziqiang's mother has also sincerely forgiven him.
After saying this, the two people returned to the tomb together.
Mai Xiaorou took a deep breath and said: "It seems that there are no complications and everything is going smoothly. This matter is a little more difficult than the Mirror House, and there are a lot more dangers. I guess the next case may be more difficult.
."
Mai Xiaorou and I stayed at Fengbao for a while, and then went to Yao Ziqiang's home in the countryside after making sure there were no problems.
It is a two-story small building, but there is no decoration in the house and it is simply decorated. It is obvious at a glance that basically no one from the Yao family has lived here.
When we arrived at Yao's house, there were still a lot of people here. Seeing that we were back, Yao Ziqiang asked us if everything at the tomb had been solved. If so, he would send a car to take us away, and they were going to
He stayed here all night and burned the first seven pieces of paper for his mother before leaving.
I was just about to say yes, but for some reason, the Snake King Pendant on my chest began to heat up inexplicably, and then a feeling of disgust appeared in my heart.
Is there anything around here that the Snake King Pendant doesn't like?
I looked around a few times and found that except for Yao Ziqiang's family, friends and fellow villagers, there was no other suspicious person.
When Snake King Pendant reacted, I immediately changed my words and said, "Since you want to burn the first seven pieces of paper, then we will wait until your mother's first seven pieces of paper come back to life before leaving, so as to avoid further complications."
Yao Ziqiang nodded, and then arranged for the people next to him to prepare a place for us to rest.
I asked Yao Ziqiang to do his work first, then took Mai Xiaorou to a deserted place and asked her, "Have you ever felt anything wrong around you?"
Mai Xiaorou shook her head and asked me if I felt anything.
I said: "It's not me, it's the Snake King Pendant. There is something around here that the Snake King Pendant hates, but the Snake King Pendant didn't give me a clear hint. I don't know what it is."
Neither Mai Xiaorou nor I felt it, so naturally we had no clue.
At twelve o'clock in the evening, Yao Ziqiang's family went to burn the first seven pieces of paper for his mother, and then came back to rest.
Mai Xiaorou and I didn't sleep, but waited for everyone to go to bed and then started searching near Yao Ziqiang's house in the countryside.
Because since the afternoon, the disgusting feeling of Snake King Pendant has not subsided and has been constantly transmitted to my heart.
And as soon as I was far away from Yao Ziqiang's house, the feeling of disgust disappeared, which meant that the thing Snake King Pendant hated was near this house.
We kept searching until after two o'clock in the morning, but still found nothing. Mai Xiaorou and I couldn't feel any special atmosphere at all.
Mai Xiaorou and I stood in the gutter behind the house feeling helpless.
But at this moment, the ground beneath our feet suddenly moved, as if something was about to come out of the soil.
I took a photo of the drainage ditch with my mobile phone and found that the ground for more than ten meters had signs of slight bulges upwards.
This thing looks quite small!
At this time, Mai Xiaorou suddenly said: "The thing below is alive. It looks like a big snake. It has three souls, no, four souls!"
What is going on? We clearly couldn’t feel anything just now... (To be continued)
