"Thank you, Brother Erzhu."
"Young Master Jin An, you're welcome."
Jin An hugged Lin Erzhu's fists, and then stepped into Lin Lu's yard.
Lin Erzhu opened the courtyard door for Jin An.
After Jin An entered, he slammed the courtyard door again.
Block out other people's prying eyes.
Jin Anfu was admitted to hospital.
Unexpectedly, the courtyard was already filled with more than a dozen people.
These people are all Lin Lu's relatives of the Lin family.
They are all Lin Lu's cousins, and all the uncles and uncles are here.
Several wooden benches were placed in several directions. Some senior elders or prominent figures from the Lin family were all there at the moment.
There are several elderly people who are very old and have difficulty moving. Behind them, there are still a few young people standing to take care of the elderly and help them walk.
At this time, the Lin family members, including Lin Lu and his father, all seemed to be worried, and they all sat with their brows furrowed and said nothing.
The atmosphere was very depressing and silent.
The scene in front of me is a bit like...
Everyone is waiting in silence for something...
The white coffin placed in the yard was still there safely, and the lid had been closed again.
It's just that the lime powder that was sprinkled on the ground yesterday is now very messy under the footsteps of pairs of feet.
Jin An looked around.
A strange phenomenon was discovered.
There were only old men in the yard, not a single female family member, and not even Lin Lu's mother was in the yard.
Jin An's head sank.
Jin An was not familiar with Lin Lu and other members of the family, so he found the place where the old Taoist priest was standing.
Jin An deliberately lowered his voice so that only he and the old Taoist priest could hear: "Old magician, what's going on? Why do I think there's something wrong with the atmosphere in this yard?"
"Did someone come to steal the body last night? Someone died..."
"Lin Lu..."
The old Taoist priest secretly glared at Jin An, meaning that when Jin An was alone, calling him the old magic stick was an insult to his personality.
But now is not the time for bickering. The old Taoist priest said: "Old Taoist, I suspect that the person who drugged our meals last night and knocked out several of us is the Lin family."
"Because the food we had yesterday was cooked by Lin Lu's aunts and aunts. When it comes to poisoning the food, the most likely suspect is to investigate it first with Lin Lu's aunts and uncles."
"It's just that we asked for a long time, but nothing came out. No one admitted that they did it. When I saw their expressions when they spoke, it didn't look like they were lying. I felt like this was not done by a living person. , it should be that some of them are possessed by dirty things, but they don’t know it at all.”
"So, I asked the Lin family to select a few strong women and lead Aunt Lin Lu, who was responsible for cooking food for us last night, into the back room for a physical examination."
Jin An had a surprised expression on his face when he heard this.
"I've heard of people being possessed by dirty things."
"I remember that when I was a child, I loved to move. The elders in my family often told us not to run around at night. When a person runs, his heels are off the ground, which is like a broken root, and it is easy for dirt to be picked up from behind you. Insert the two feet into the heels to possess the body and blow out the three Yang Fires of the person."
"There is also a saying that people naturally rest at sunset and have less yang at night. If they run strenuously at night, they sweat a lot. The sweat takes away body heat, making the yang energy even weaker. And for people with less yang, It’s easy to hit dirty things. So running at night is not recommended.”
"But there's no need to bring them into the house to check. Just see who is walking on their heels."
Who knows.
The old Taoist priest glanced sideways at Jin An.
That sideways glance...
It's like scolding Jin An for farting!
"It's daytime, it's sunny, and the sky and the earth are burning like a sun furnace. What evil spirit dares to come out at this time if it doesn't cost its life?"
"Old Taoist, I've seen that Lin Lu's aunts and uncles all walk with their heels on the ground, just like ordinary people. At least they are not possessed by dirty things during the day."
"What I want to check is which one of them was possessed by something dirty last night."
"As long as a person has been possessed by dirty things, they will leave behind some special characteristics that will not disappear immediately."
When the old Taoist priest said this, he frowned slightly: "After all, it is a yin and yang. Even if you pour a splash of cold water into the hot oil, the oil will splash out all over the pot. It cannot be completely clean without leaving any traces. Any trace."
The old Taoist priest continued to explain: "Human beings are yang, and evil spirits are yin. When evil spirits possess the body and cannot clear the upper and lower parts, it is easy for the qi of the liver and lungs to stagnate. If the liver and lungs are affected by evil spirits, the liver, lungs, and spleen will be deficient and unlucky, qi stagnation, blood stasis, and meridians block."
"Insufficient healthy qi leads to the dominance of back-evils, liver qi becomes inverse, and lung qi turns into hidden nuclei and knots in the chest and breasts."
According to the words of an old Taoist priest, if a person has been possessed by dirty things, even if the person recovers afterwards, some abnormalities will remain in the chest closest to the lungs.
Therefore, you can tell whether you have been possessed or not by taking off your clothes and checking the person's chest for any abnormalities.
Although the old Taoist priest wanted to be on the safe side and inspected it with his own hands, it was more secure and safe, and no muscle would be missed. He is willing to throw himself into the fiery hell in order to subjugate demons and maintain a peaceful world.
But in the end the matter was dropped.
After all, men and women are different.
Chastity is a big deal.
So I asked Lin Lu's mother, together with several strong and powerful Lin family ladies, to close the door and check themselves.
"?"
"!"
The old Taoist priest blinked at Jin An, and the two of them showed that look that all men knew.
While they were talking, the door to the inner room, which had been closed, finally opened from the inside.
A group of thick-waisted tiger and wolf masters came out with several female relatives. One of them was crying, and his two almond-shaped eyes were red and swollen from crying.
The pale and helpless little hands tightly covered the slightly messy clothes on her chest.
No need to ask, the results of this physical examination have already been produced.
A group of old men who had been waiting silently in the yard suddenly stood up, with expressions of shock and horror on their faces.
"Why is it you, little aunt!"
Lin Lu had a stunned expression on his face.
At the same time, another middle-aged man in the yard had an ugly look on his face.
"Donor, don't be fooled. The cause and effect of this matter is not your wife's fault. She is also the victim. You must not have a grudge because of this and mistreat your wife, who has suffered the same suffering as you in the world."
The old Taoist priest looked at the middle-aged man.
It turned out that the two people were sleeping in the same bed.
The next thing was much simpler. I asked Lin Lu's aunt if anything strange had happened around her in the past few days. Or have you come into contact with any strangers?
Then a man followed the clues.
It turned out that Lin Lu's aunt did meet a strange man last night, and he had been following her. It wasn't until she ran into Lin Lu's house that he left.
Lin Lu had many relatives in his family. They took the painted portraits and went around Chang County to find out the identity of the man who followed Lin Lu's aunt last night.
After half a day, the results finally came.
It turns out that man’s name is Chen Pi!
So, a group of angry men from the Lin family, armed with hoes and shovels, took the old Taoist priest and Jin An, and ran to find the body thief.
