White Bone Monkey King

When Jin An and the others came to the Zheng family, they found that the place was in a mess. When the Zheng family saw the Zhang family who came to the door, they immediately gathered around angrily and shouted at the Zhang family to hand over the body.

When they saw Jin An and the old Taoist priest walking with the Zhang family, the Zheng family were stunned for a moment, and then continued to chase the Zhang family for the body.

The Zhang family was surprised. They had just brought out the body of the young widow of the Zheng family. Did the Zheng family get the news so quickly?

But when they put down the straw mat on which the body was wrapped and handed over the body of the young widow of the Zheng family, the Zheng family members first exclaimed and then subconsciously backed away in fear. They were surprised that the Zhang family had the ability to take out the body, but they immediately scolded Zhang Baoshan angrily for not knowing what he was doing. Pretending to be confused, what they want is the body of the groom.

"People surnamed Zheng, stop your fucking farts! We have brought out the body. Hand over my mother's bones immediately. If you don't hand over my mother's bones today, I, Zhang Baoshan, will fight with your Zheng family to the end!" Zhang Baoshan yelled. .

They finally brought out the body of the young widow of the Zheng family, but they were beaten down and stole the body of the groom. Wasn't the body of the groom always kept in the coffin in the mourning hall? How could they have the chance to steal the body.

The Zheng family also refused to back down, and they exchanged insults with the Zhang family: "Zhang Baoshan, don't think we don't know that you took advantage of the chaos to steal your daughter's human skin. If you can steal it once in the mourning hall, you must have a way to do it. Zheng This is the second time the family has stolen from the mourning hall! Stop making excuses, there is no such thing as a coincidence in the world. As soon as you left, my nephew’s body also disappeared!"

When mentioning his daughter, Zhang Baoshan became silent. The Zheng family thought they had finally caught the Zhang family and insisted that it was Zhang Baoshan who stole the groom's body in an attempt to blackmail the Zheng family in exchange for the bones of the Zhang family's ancestors.

Just when the Zhang family and the Zheng family were quarreling red-faced and about to turn from a quarrel into a bloody conflict, the old Taoist priest took the initiative to stand between the two families and act as a peacemaker.

"Several donors, if you have time to argue here, why don't you think about how to find the lost body so that the deceased can rest in peace as soon as possible. Since you two families don't trust each other, why don't I and my little brother go to the mourning hall to see what's going on? , maybe we can find some clues to help your Zheng family recover the stolen body."

At first, the Zheng family did not agree to let the old Taoist priest and Jin An enter the mourning hall. The Zheng family regarded the two as traitors and could not trust them, but they were speechless by the old Taoist priest's words.

"We can even carry out the corpses you buried in the tombs of Zhang family ancestors safely. Do you think there is anything more difficult than this? Instead of arguing here, why not let us give it a try. You can do the whole process Watch our every move."

After a short discussion, the Zheng family finally reluctantly agreed to let only the old Taoist priest and Jin An enter the mourning hall, but turned the Zhang family away.

Zhang Baoshan was worried about the safety of the two of them and wanted to take others into Zheng's house, but was persuaded by the old Taoist priest to go back.

…

A group of people came to the Zheng family mourning hall.

The place is still the same as before leaving, except that the lid of one of the coffins has been opened.

"Can you tell me in detail how you discovered that the body in the coffin was missing?" The old Taoist priest circled the three coffins and finally came to the open black coffin and asked the Zheng family.

The attitude of the Zheng family was not friendly. They followed the old Taoist priest and Jin An all the time as if they were guarding against thieves. They said in a cold tone: "A Fu and A Xiang, a few young people, stayed vigil in the mourning hall all night. They accidentally fell asleep and waited. When I woke up, I found that one of the coffins had been opened and my nephew's body had been stolen."

This corpse-disposing process is simple enough.

The old Taoist priest had a good temper and did not argue with the Zheng family about such trivial matters. He knew that the Zheng family had been on guard against them and would not be able to get anything out of them if they continued to ask, so he simply stopped wasting his time and continued asking.

"It is better to rely on ourselves than to rely on others. It seems that we have to resolve this matter ourselves."

The old Taoist priest acted swiftly and swiftly, and began to do business according to his own method.

He first lit incense candles to pay homage to the three coffins in the mourning hall, and said some words to save the souls of the dead and no offense today. This is called etiquette. He hopes to be respected in front of others in life, and he also hopes to be respected in death. Then he asked the Zheng family to find a black dog and a hundred pounds of glutinous rice.

While waiting for the Zheng family to collect the necessary items, the old Taoist priest was not idle. He took out a small bag of grave rice for commemorating the dead from the Tai Chi Bagua bag he carried with him, and borrowed a porcelain bowl from the Zheng family to pour the rice into it. Eat at the grave.

This grave rice is not only used to commemorate the dead, but also to test whether any unclean things have stayed in a place. As the old saying goes, "One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers."

"If you want to know whether a living person stole a corpse or a dead person, you can tell by trying this bowl of rice on the grave." The old Taoist priest said as he skillfully lit an incense stick and inserted it into the rice on the grave.

As soon as the old Taoist priest placed the rice on the grave in front of the coffin, he discovered a shocking scene. The rice on the grave began to burn at an accelerated rate.

The old Taoist priest's expression changed slightly.

Then I saw him taking out several things from the Tai Chi Bagua bag, including a wolf brush and a stack of coins from Tiandi Bank. He chanted a spell in his mouth and wrote a series of numbers on the coins from Tiandi Bank. Zhang Du had 10,000 taels of bank notes, a pile of hundreds of thousands of bank notes.

The old Taoist priest took out the seal of the Lord of Hell from the Tai Chi Bagua bag, breathed at the seal a few times, and then stamped the seal of the Lord of Hell on each Tiandi Bank banknote.

After finishing all this work, the old Taoist priest found a brazier and burned the bank notes of Tiandi Bank.

But at this moment, on a sultry summer night that was supposed to be windless, the wind blew up for no reason, blowing the Tiandi Bank notes returned in the brazier everywhere, and none of the Tiandi Bank notes burned up.

"What a fierce thing! It doesn't even eat rice!"

The old Taoist priest looked at the Zheng family with a serious face: "I hope you can answer me truthfully. Apart from digging up the graves of the Zhang family's ancestors and having enmity with the Zhang family, have you ever had any disputes with anyone else?"

"I originally wanted to burn some paper money to the person who stole the body so that he could calm down his grievances and return the body, but the other party didn't want to negotiate at all!"

The Zheng family looked confused.

The old Taoist priest frowned and didn't need the Zheng family to answer. He already understood that if he asked again, there would be no results. Behind the Zheng family's back, he quietly said to Jin An: "Little brother, what happened today is a bit evil. Is this the case?" The Zheng family has done many unjust things and offended too many enemies; or maybe Zhang Baoshan's daughter died tragically and came back to take revenge..."

At this time, the Zheng family had returned to the mourning hall carrying several sacks of glutinous rice, and another group of people also brought a black dog.

"Dark clouds tread on the snow, with a bright moon in mind. This is a good dog to guard the home and the courtyard! It is the best dog!" The old Taoist priest's eyes lit up.

However, it was a critical moment to do business at this time, and there was no time to be distracted for the time being. He asked everyone to exit the mourning hall, and then spread the snow-white glutinous rice in the mourning hall.

"The glutinous rice reaches the sun and has the effect of removing poisons. It will react when it encounters poison..." As soon as the old Taoist priest finished speaking, a series of black footprints appeared on the glutinous rice in the mourning hall.

But those black footprints are very strange, there are only heel prints, but the forefoot prints are missing, like a person with half a foot? It's really strange.

"Sure enough, there are unclean things attached to the living people who come to the mourning hall to steal the corpses!" Under the explanation of the old Taoist priest, the Zheng family finally understood why those strange footprints appeared on the glutinous rice. The living people possessed by evil spirits were standing on their toes. Walking on tiptoes, what appears on the glutinous rice is not the footprints of the living but the footprints of the dead.

When evil spirits possess a living person, they move their feet under the soles of the living person's feet, so there is only half a footprint. Glutinous rice has no effect on the front footprints of a living person.

With the clue, the next thing will be easier to handle. The old Taoist blindfolded the black dog, then took off a few grains of glutinous rice from the black dog's footprints, put it in front of the black dog's nose and sniffed it for a while, and finally let go of the black dog. It helps everyone find the whereabouts of the body thief.

However, the next scene was beyond everyone's expectations. The black dog did not run towards the outside of Zheng's house, but ran straight into the depths of Zheng's house.

"Huh?"

"Could it be that the body thief and the groom's body have been hidden in the Zheng family?" The old Taoist priest was stunned.

The Zheng family turned pale with fright. They turned around to look at the dark night and hurriedly followed the old Taoist priest and Jin An.

Finally, the black dog ran to a dark and silent house with locked doors and windows and barked non-stop. It felt uncomfortable as soon as he approached the house. The dog was spiritual and sensed danger here, so he did not dare to take another step forward.

The old Taoist priest gently stroked the black dog to calm his emotions, then helped the black dog remove the blindfold, and then asked the Zheng family who lived in this house.

The faces of the Zheng family members turned green and white, their pupils trembled with fear, and they were very frightened.

"This, this is the room where the bride and groom spent their wedding day. Ever since...that incident happened, it has been locked and uninhabited..."
