"boarding."
Shen Qingyao took us to the parking place. After we were seated, she stepped on the accelerator and drove away from Cao's house.
Even though this Miss Shen Er is very resolute when doing things, she is very disciplined and disciplined when driving, and she will not overtake at will.
It was dark at this time and it was already past midnight, but the streets were still lively.
I asked Shen Qingyao to take a trip to Xinghua Old Street, where I found an incense and candle shop and bought a lot of incense, as well as some paper money.
"What are you doing?" Shen Qingyao asked with some confusion.
I said, "You're all gone, let's burn some money for the souls passing by."
Shen Qingyao hummed, but without asking any more questions, she came out of Xinghua Old Street and drove all the way out of the city.
In about an hour, the car arrived at Civet Ridge and drove slowly along the winding mountain road.
"It's quite cold here. I haven't seen a car for a long time." Shao Zilong looked through the car window.
While talking, Shen Qingyao stepped on the brakes and slowly pulled the car over to a stop.
"right here?"
We opened the door and got out of the car and looked around.
This place is located halfway up the mountain, with a rock wall on one side and a cliff on the other, with a river flowing below.
Although this Civet Ridge is not high, if the car really has to rush down, it will definitely be doomed.
"I asked my sister before, it should be this place." Shen Qingyao pointed to a place on the road, "Three cars were parked here at the time."
We went over and took a closer look. At this time, the road had been cleared, so we couldn't see it. There were no signs of collision around it.
At this time, a gust of mountain wind passed by, making the trees nearby rustle.
There is always a lot of yin in the mountains, but this place is different.
I took out the paper money for the incense candles I bought from the car, walked to the roadside, and called the two of them to help.
"How to do it?" Shao Zilong looked over and asked.
I handed each of them a large handful of incense, lit it with fire, and pointed to the roadside, "You two, one side at a time, just go along the road."
"Like this?" Shao Zilong demonstrated, inserting a stick of incense into the soil on the side of the road.
I said almost.
"Okay." Shao Zilong immediately started working.
Shen Qingyao stood for a while and asked, "Then what are you doing?"
"I'm burning paper money." I pointed to the paper money piled on the ground, "How about we exchange it?"
Shen Qingyao said nothing, held the incense and walked to the other side, imitating Shao Zilong's example and crossing along the way.
The road was soon shrouded in incense smoke, and coughs could be heard from time to time.
After the two of them finished putting the incense in their hands, they saw dots on both sides of the road, as if there were two more light strips.
I turned around and lit the paper money, while silently reciting the incantation. I started the incantation with my left hand and pointed to the ground. Then I squatted on the edge and looked at the incense smoke swimming on the road.
"What are you looking at?"
Shao Zilong and Shen Qingyao came back to ask after placing the incense.
"Look at the dead souls." I explained casually.
"Dead soul?" Shao Zilong stared at the smoke with his eyes widened in surprise.
Shen Qingyao also looked at it several times and asked doubtfully, "Where is it?"
Shao Zilong closed his eyes, opened them again after a while, shook his head and said, "I can't feel it."
"It's not really a dead soul. Look carefully at the smoke." I said.
The two stared at each other for a long time, but both looked puzzled. Shao Zilong asked, "What did you want us to see?"
"You have to practice this skill of seeing smoke. It's normal if you can't see it." I asked them to look at the cars on both sides of the road. If there is a car coming, stop it first.
The two of them were a little distrustful and stared at it for a while. In the end, they probably didn't see anything, so they went to stop the car separately.
When the incense was halfway burned, I had enough to see and called the two of them back.
"Tell us what you did just now!" Shao Zilong shouted as soon as he came back.
"This is called Yinxiang. You can watch the incense and see the souls of the dead. Of course, it's not really about the souls of the dead, but some traces left by the souls." I explained to them.
"Some yin incense?" Shao Zilong scratched his head and asked Shen Qingyao, "Have you heard of Xiaoyao?"
"No." Shen Qingyao said, and then asked me, "Then do you see anything?"
I asked her, "Have a lot of people died in this place?"
"Yes." Shen Qingyao glanced at me in surprise and nodded, "There used to be car accidents in this place. Later, seniors from our association came here to have a look at Feng Shui."
"Is the feng shui of this place bad?" Shao Zilong asked, looking around.
Shen Qingyao said, "The feng shui here is actually not bad, but things always happen from time to time."
As she spoke, she walked to a rock wall and pointed upward, "Look at this."
Shao Zilong and I went over to take a look and saw a gray-white stone exposed on the rock wall above, and there seemed to be writing on it.
"That's the mountain rock. It was installed by the seniors of our association after they came to see it." Shen Qingyao explained, "Since then, there have been a lot less accidents, but there are still some."
When I heard her talk about these things, her tone was a little strange, so I asked, "How do you know so much about it?"
Shen Qingyao was silent for a long time and said, "When I was a child, I had a very good friend, and his family was involved in a car accident here."
Shao Zilong and I were stunned when we heard this. We didn't expect this to happen.
"What happened next?"
I saw Shen Qingyao's expression and knew that the result would definitely not be good, but I still had to ask about it.
"The car rushed out of the guardrail and fell into the river." Shen Qingyao walked to the roadside and looked at the rushing river below. "The bodies of her parents were later found, but she has... never been recovered."
"Sorry." Shao Zilong sighed.
"I'm fine." Shen Qingyao shook her head.
I thought for a moment and asked her, "Besides your best friend, are there anyone else missing?"
"Yes." Shen Qingyao said, "The river down here is very fast and deep. If you accidentally rush down the river, you may not be able to find anyone."
"There aren't any powerful corpse collectors in your association?" Shao Zilong asked puzzledly.
"Yes, and they are all experienced experts, but they have not been able to get people back." Shen Qingyao said.
"This is strange." Shao Zilong went over and looked at the river below.
"Who are the people missing in the river? Are there more women?" I asked.
"Why are there more women?" Shao Zilong was a little confused.
"I'm looking for someone to ask." Shen Qingyao took out her mobile phone.
However, the signal here was not very good, so I changed locations several times before finally making the call.
