Chapter 173: The Origin of Digging Graves

“Let’s talk about the cemetery first. When my grandfather was young, a feng shui master came to the village. He dressed like a beggar and came to the village to beg for food. At that time, it was not only our village, but also other places. Everyone was poor and did not have much food. The man asked the villagers for help, but no one in the village gave him food.”

“Later on, my grandfather saw how pitiful he was, so he gave him his own food and chose to starve for a day. The feng shui master was very touched. In order to repay his kindness, he told my grandfather a method that could change the fate of the entire village so that their descendants could live a good life.”

“You even robbed the home of a dead person. I’m really impressed. This is much more ruthless than those grave robbers. They only stole some valuable things, but you directly tore down their home,” Shen Jian ridiculed.

Su Meng interjected, “This method is to occupy that cemetery? Use the good feng shui of the dead to change the fortunes of the living?”

The village chief nodded. He continued, “There’s no other way. Everyone was really having a hard time at that time. My grandfather was also the village chief. In order to let everyone have a better life, he used the feng shui master’s method to occupy half of the cemetery. He also dug a well on the flattened cemetery to suppress the unclean things. Our village was originally at the side, but it was slowly moved over.”

“That graveyard had already been there since our ancestors moved over. We’ve never seen any descendants come back to pay their respects. Since no one cared, we directly flattened it. Speaking of which, it’s strange. Ever since we followed the feng shui master’s method, the luck of the village has indeed become better and better, and the villagers have become richer and richer.”

“But the good times didn’t last long. After a few decades, strange things began to happen in the village. First, cats and dogs fell into the well. We thought that since no one drank the water there, we didn’t care. Unexpectedly, people also started to fall into the well. We’ve already warned everyone in the village not to go near the well. Everyone knows that.”

“But even so, accidents often happened later. Logically speaking, children don’t listen to us. They like to go near the well to play, but in the end, the ones who got into trouble were all adults. There was not a single child. We also covered the well, but after we covered it, it became the misfortune of the entire village. There’s nothing we can do. Although accidents happen all the time, we can only open the well.”

Su Meng pinched her fingers and calculated. She looked at the Village Chief and said, “No wonder you’re the only one in the village who doesn’t have that green fog. It seems that the feng shui master has a clear distinction between kindness and hatred. The other villagers didn’t help him, but only your grandfather did. So, he set up a scheme to use the luck of the entire village to support your family’s luck.”

“At first, I thought that the array formation in your house was a little strange. Now I understand. I guess he was the one who let Hong Si be the core of the array formation.”

The Village Chief nodded and said, “The feng shui master left a note with the eight characters of his birthday written on it. Anyone who matches the eight characters of this birthday can be the core of the array formation.”

“Then why does it have to be Brother Hong? Why is it so coincidental that it’s him?” Lin Ai could not help but ask.

“I only found out by accident. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked him to do this when he grew up.” The Village Chief avoided looking at her with an unnatural expression.

Su Meng listened from the side and did not have any reaction to it.

After getting a general understanding, Su Meng stood up and said, “Let’s go. Let’s go to the car to get the tools first. Then we’ll go to the cemetery to take a look. We need to solve the problem first.”

After returning to the car to get the things, the Village Chief led the way while Su Meng and the others followed behind. The villagers at the side could not help but feel puzzled when they saw the Village Chief personally leading the few outsiders.

“Village Chief, who are they? Are they your relatives?” someone asked.

“Go do what you need to do. These are my guests. We have something to do.” The Village Chief chased away all the people who came to join in the fun. Then, he led Su Meng to take a shortcut.

When they came to the vicinity of the graveyard, they saw a figure standing by the well. The upper half of his body was bent, as if he was ready to dive into it.

“Oh my god, someone has fallen into the trap again. Quick, quick!” Shen Jian shouted when he saw the figure. Then, he rushed to the well. He shouted as he ran, but the person in front of him seemed to not hear him. There was no reaction at all.

The Village Chief followed behind Shen Jian. After the two of them rushed over, they hugged the person’s waist and dragged him to the side.

This person looked a little familiar. Shen Jian took a look. Wasn’t this the old man who had pointed the way for them yesterday? The old man’s eyes were blank. He had no reaction to the person beside him.

Su Meng walked to the old man’s side and recognized him.

“Boss, how do we wake him up?” Shen Jian grabbed the old man and turned to ask Su Meng.
