Chapter 5: Zhu Long Enters the Water Bureau

  Yin Yang Rogue

  I had Liu Wanwan take me there immediately, the place is not particularly far from the village, and it would take more than 20 minutes to get there on foot. The surrounding mountains and rivers are embracing each other, but they have already shown signs of decline. I took out my compass, measured the direction, and soon found Zhang Jianjia's ancestral tomb.

  Arriving at the grave, I took a look and indeed it was a Zhu Long Ru Shui formation. I also recalled that when I went to Ming Qing's mansion last night, the housekeeper told me: "This mansion has been around for 70 years." Suddenly, I understood the connection between them.

  I saw Liu's eyes staring at me with a tense gaze. It was already dusk, and the sun was about to set. The afterglow of the sunset fell on the tomb, casting an indescribable desolation and gloom.

  I looked at Liu Wanwan with a serious expression and said: "I know you have many questions, but don't ask now, hurry up and find me a few things."

  Liu Wanwan nodded tightly and I told her to go to the village to find cat feces, black dog blood, and raw lime for me, plus a iron shovel. Liu Wanwan quickly found them back. Hesitating with a hint of panic, she asked me: "Fang Xian, that...I want to know, what is a Blood Cloud Brocade?"

  I looked at her seriously and said: "Do you really want to know what's going on? I'm afraid you'll be scared when you hear it."

  Liu Wanwan hesitated for a moment, her face suddenly turned pale, as if she knew that this matter had something to do with herself. If I said it, it would undoubtedly be like pronouncing a death sentence on her fate.

  Finally, the girl bit her lip and nodded bravely. I knew it was only a matter of time before she spoke out, and all I could hope for was that she would be strong enough. And so she began to tell her story.

  Liu Wanwan's marriage was actually a huge conspiracy, rather than just comforting the dead.

  What I just said "Xiā Pèi Tì Xuě" is a very difficult to achieve kind of extremely poisonous situation. Why do I say that? Because Xiā Pèi Tì Xuě requires Méi Kāi èr Dù.

  In ancient times, people attached great importance to this matter. The first wife was called "wife", and the second one was called "concubine". Only when the wife died could a man marry another woman through proper procedures and call her his "wife" again. So what does "Mei Kai Er Du" mean? It means that a wife must be married twice.

  And Liu Wanwan is that "wife"! These two times are: The first time, one death and one life. The second time, one life and one death. After these two times were completed, it was called "Tears of Blood Red Clouds"!

  Liu Wanwan listened to me and her expression became even more bewildered: "What do you mean? Haven't I already gotten married?"

  I shook my head and said to her: "The first groom died, and the living bride was married. This is called one death and one life. When you hold a ghost wedding, it's to complete this one death and one life."

  Liu Wanwan nodded: "What about life and death?"

  I sighed: "One life, one death refers to the fact that the bride is still alive. Through a ghost marriage, the soul of the bride is married into the netherworld, causing the bride to die! This is what 'one life, one death' means! After completing this 'one death, one life', 'one life, one death' can be considered thoroughly completed, and this Blood Tears Wedding Veil will also be completely finished."

  After hearing my words, Liu Wanwan's face turned pale and her expression was shocked. Her whole body shook slightly, almost falling down. I helped her sit down beside me and comforted her, saying: "You don't have to worry too much, I will do my best to help you break this Blood Tears Brocade."

  Liu Wanwan looked as if she had lost her soul: "How can I break it? I've already been married once!"

  I held the compass and tried to feel the earth's pulse, meanwhile, I chose a good location on the dragon tail hole of the entire grave and drilled a hole, then poured the cat dung and black dog blood in my hand into it.

  "I said to Liu Wanwan while doing it, 'The real source is in this tomb. As long as this tomb is dismantled, the Xiaopei blood will be useless.'"

  "What's the grave agency? What does it have to do with our family ancestors' graves?" Liu Wanwan asked me in confusion.

  Just then, a group of people came from afar, making a ruckus. By this time, the sky had already darkened, and a group of people carrying flashlights and torches rushed towards us, panting and shouting: "Liu Wanwan, you are my Zhang family's daughter-in-law, how can you bring outsiders to dig up my Zhang family's ancestral tomb?"

  As they spoke, the group of people had already approached, and when I took a closer look, it turned out that they were all fellow villagers, young and old. There were men and women, old and young, and at the forefront was a man in his fifties with a broad forehead, big ears, and a prominent beer belly, his face full of shock and anger.

  I asked in a low voice who this person was. Liu Wanwan took two steps back, frightened, and whispered: "Zhang Jian's father, Zhang Dazhou."

  The one who grew up following Zhou's side was Chen Shancai, the iron-faced bridge. At this time, although Chen Shancai was anxious, his face still had an arrogant expression, as if having more people made him fearless.

  An old man next to him looked at Wanwan with a painful expression: "Wanwan, our village raised you, is this ancestral tomb movable? How can you do this? Bring outsiders to demolish the ancestral tomb of our own villagers?"

  Liu Wanwan's expression suddenly became embarrassed, her face also flushed red and said: "Grandpa Li, it's not like that, I...this..."

  "Alright, alright, no need to say more. Wanjun, was it this young whippersnapper who incited you to do this? Fellow villagers, take a look, this is our own village's land, our own ancestral graves, being ruined by an outsider, a young upstart. How can this be allowed?"

  Zhang Dazhou's words caused an explosion around him, and those old masters also followed suit, shouting loudly.

  "Is it? Is it? Are you going to bring disaster to our village?"

  "Where did this kid come from? Is this place somewhere you can just move around as you like?"

  "Get out of here quickly! If you dare to disturb our village's ancestral tomb today, tomorrow you won't be able to shit on our heads!"

  "Right, go and catch him, then throw him into the county police station."

  Chen Shanzai also chimed in, "In my opinion, it's definitely Liu Wanwan who took the betrothal gifts and held a ghost wedding. Then she hooked up with this young pretty boy outside for a few months and now she's come to wreak havoc on our village. Everyone says, how can this be? Let's catch her quickly!"

  Those villagers were even more furious when they heard that, and immediately came at me with their sticks and iron shovels. I took two steps back, the iron shovel in my hand stained with black dog blood and cat dung, and hung it on an inconspicuous position on the edge of the grave. With this movement, Chen Shancan's eyes were wide open, and he hastily waved his hand, shouting loudly: "Wait a minute! Don't move!"

  A group of old men were startled, and hastily stopped in their tracks. That big Zhou seemed to have realized something too, pointing at me and cursing: "What the hell do you think you're doing to my family's ancestral tomb?"

  I gave a cold smile and swept a glance around the surrounding villagers, asking: "Didn't everyone want to know why I came? Then back away a bit, now I'll explain it to you all?"

  Those people looked at each other in confusion, I ignored them and continued shouting:

  "You want to send me to the county police station? If you're not afraid of the truth about the ghost marriage coming out, then take me there and see. In this day and age, is it feudal superstition to engage in ghost marriages? Are you all trying to get reported in the newspapers and on TV? How much benefit did the Zhang family give you? You've forced a living girl to marry a dead man!"

  When I said this, the villagers around me looked embarrassed and started discussing in a low voice.

  Then I heard a voice in the crowd shouting: "That, that is Liu Wanwan herself willing to marry, and it has nothing to do with us. Besides, they were already in a relationship when she was alive, just leaving some memories behind, didn't really bury Wanwan in the grave, right?"

  "Yes, yes, this matter has been agreed upon by the Liu family, they have known each other since childhood and were even betrothed before birth, so what's the point of a ghost marriage?"

  I sneered: "Ignorance is terrifying. Do you know? If it weren't for me, Liu Wanwan would have died last night. The reason is the ghost marriage, this tomb."

  When I said this, the villagers around me were in an uproar and started whispering to each other.

  I added more fuel to the fire and said, "Also, I'm telling you all that if Liu Wanwan dies, your village will never know peace again. The ghost of Xia Pei will cry blood, this is the first time a dead person has married a new bride, and this time it's something everyone can see."

  The second time is to take the bride's soul, making the bride die. The second dark marriage is something that everyone can't see at all. If the bride dies, the resentment won't disperse, and her spirit will keep wandering around this village, causing trouble everywhere. Do you think any of your families have a runaway?

  Zhang Dazhou became a bit flustered and hastily shouted to those around him, "Don't listen to this kid's nonsense! How is that possible? Why would we do such a thing? It doesn't make any sense at all!"

  I sneered and said: "Why? Don't you know it yourself, Zhang the big landlord? Since you don't know, I'll say it out loud for everyone to hear."

  Zhang Dazhou's face was covered in sweat, and Chen Shancan beside him also had beads of sweat on his forehead. He shouted loudly: "Don't listen to his nonsense, a ghost marriage is meant to comfort the dead and give two children who were betrothed as infants a complete life."

  I grew even angrier and my voice turned colder: "If that's really how it is, then let me say something."

  Zhang Dazhou also stopped and shouted: "Don't listen to this kid, he's fooling people."

  I suddenly laughed and said, "Zhang Dazhou, if you're not guilty, why don't you let people hear the whole story? I advise you to listen carefully too. Don't think that just because Zhu Long is back, everything will be fine again. I'm telling you, when the time comes, your family will have more deaths than mine. You should ask your guest, the great Chen Shancun, the master of Fengshui."

  Zhang Dazhou was taken aback by my words and turned to look at Chen Shancan, who frantically waved his hand: "Master, don't listen to him, I've told you everything I do, how could I possibly harm you?"

  The villagers around heard Chen Shancan say this, and in an instant the whole surrounding area fell silent. They also heard something, Chen Shancan said "do what things to tell you", meaning that only Zhang Dazhou knew, did these people not know at all?

  I continued: "Didn't you just ask what's good for your family? I'll tell you now.
