The eldest lady has no taboos in what she does

Chapter 186 Strange things in the village

The man in the room heard the noise and rushed out.

"What are you shouting about so late at night?"

The weak moonlight made the woman's face pale, and she pointed at the hand tremblingly.

"Yes, there are thieves, there are thieves!"

As soon as the man heard that there was a thief, he grabbed the hoe at the base of the wall and rushed over and hit the hand.

With a "pop", the hand instantly became bloody and bloody, but the man didn't seem to know the pain and didn't even hum.

Now the men were very frightened.

The woman hurried back to her house, lit a lamp and came out to illuminate the yard.

Through the gap in the fence wall, she saw an eye with a dilated pupil and half of a rotten face. The half of the face was covered with wriggling maggots, which was extremely terrifying.

"Li, Li Dongqiang, it's Li Dongqiang!"

"You stupid bitch, what are you talking about? Li Dongqiang was buried a few days ago."

Although the man said this, his eyes became frightened. He was pulled by the woman to a gap in the fence. When he saw clearly the situation outside the fence, he was so frightened that he rolled his eyes and fainted.

Before dawn, many people in the village gathered at the village chief's house. Each of these people had a look of fear on their faces and their legs were swaying.

"Li, Li Zheng, I, I saw Li Dongqiang who has been dead for many days last night. He, he was just outside the fence of my house... I have never done anything to feel sorry for him. I have not done anything to feel sorry for his people. Not me!"

"I, I saw my mother, village chief. My mother has been dead for half a month and she still came out. I'm sorry for my mother..."

The village chief looked at the people in the yard with a bad expression, because he also saw something unclean last night!

But even if he was frightened, he couldn't show his timidity in front of so many people.

"Calm down, everyone. Maybe, maybe you all saw it wrong at night."

The village chief himself didn't believe this.

"Village chief, let's forget one or two, so many people have seen it, how can you do anything false?"

"Yes, village chief, please hurry up and ask the Taoist leader to come back and help us do it. This is really scary!"

Before things were sorted out here, someone hurried over and shouted in horror: "Village chief, the village chief is in trouble, the graves have been dug, and all the graves in the village have been dug!" "

Half an hour later, the village chief and the people in the village looked at the coffin lids that were lifted one by one. They were so frightened that they could not speak.

This matter was no small matter, and he did not dare to delay at all. He quickly had someone hitch a carriage and prepare to report to Jing Zhaoyin.

Because the village they were in was relatively close to Xijing, the department directly under its jurisdiction was Xijing City, so when they arrived in Xijing City, the village chief found the government office, and it happened to be Gu Ming'an who received him.

Gu Ming'an looked at him with empty eyes, and his hands were clenched in one place unconsciously. This was obviously a sign of excessive nervousness, which made people wonder what happened to him.

"I said, Village Chief Zhang, what's going on? There's a big robber in the village, or a bully who's not afraid of death. Look how scared you are. It's not a big deal. We adults have always been fair and strict. As long as it's the other party's fault, Your Excellency must give you justice.”

Gu Ming'an has been working as an errand in Jingzhao Yin Mansion for many years and is relatively familiar with Chengzhou's personnel. He has dealt with Village Chief Zhang before and the two of them are considered acquaintances.

Village Chief Zhang came back to his senses, looked around and said, "Oh, Gu Guanye doesn't know something. If only this matter were so simple."

These words aroused Gu Ming'an's curiosity, "Tell me, what's going on? I won't be back for a while, so tell me first and I'll analyze it for you." Zhang Cun The chief also trusted him, so after thinking about it, he told him everything that happened last night.

"Originally, I didn't really believe in these things, but when I saw the opened coffins right in front of me, it was hard not to believe it. Mr. Gu, tell me, what is going on?"

If this was told to others, they might not necessarily believe it, but Gu Ming'an, who had experienced many things, felt that Village Chief Zhang was not necessarily talking nonsense.

"Before this happened, was there anything unusual in the village?"

Village Chief Zhang shook his head, "No, everything is the same as usual."

"Your Excellency is still working away from home and won't be able to come back for a while. In this case, I will go to the village with you to check out the situation. After I find out the situation, I will report it to Your Excellency."

Village Chief Zhang saw that Gu Ming'an did not question him, and was very grateful. When he came, he had even thought of ways to convince them to believe his words, but now he has no use for them.

Gu Ming'an went to order three officials to follow him.

Several people quickly followed the village chief back to the village.

After Gu Ming'an went to check the empty coffins, he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he always felt that the amulet in his heart was heating up.

This thing was so weird that he didn't dare to tease it too much. He quickly asked about it and went back to the city with the official.

"You talk about how you have become more and more courageous in order to match the ghost marriage. Some of them are almost turning into bones and they are dug out. What do you think this is, if not evil?"

"A match for underworld marriage?"

"That's right, otherwise what are those people digging up dead people for? Isn't it just to sell them to others for underworld marriage? I heard that the prices of these dead people are different depending on their age and cause of death."

The officials who followed Gu Ming'an to check it all felt that someone was directing and acting on their own, and the thief shouted to catch the thief. It was not like they had never handled such cases in the years they had been in Jing Zhaoyin.

But Gu Ming'an felt that things were not that simple. After all, who was worthy of a ghost marriage had to be an eighty-year-old lady.

Jing Zhaoyin didn't come back, so Gu Ming'an could only write down the case temporarily and report the situation to him when he came back.

Because it was already dark by the time he returned to the city, everyone had already finished their dinner when Gu Mingqi returned to the Gu family.

Ms. Zhao asked someone to bring out the food that had been left alone.

"Master, why are you so busy today? You won't be back until this time."

On the way back, Gu Ming'an was still thinking about today's events, "Well, something strange happened, so it was a little late to return to the city."

"Master, are you out of town today?"

Gu Ming'an nodded, "Yes, I went to the village to the west outside the city. They said it was haunted last night, and everyone in the village was scared."

Zhao became more excited when she heard that this was the case, "Really or not? Isn't there someone behind the scenes?"

Gu Ming'an shook his head, "I don't know, but it doesn't look artificial. When I'm full, I'll talk to my aunt and see if she knows what's going on."

Mrs. Zhao gave him an angry look, "You really think that my aunt is a living god. You bother her with everything. She is getting married to the prince soon, and she doesn't want to follow you around."

"I know, I'll just ask." (End of Chapter)
