"The people buried here should be the ancestors of the village for generations." I said and looked at the village chief sitting on the big stone on the side.
"Yes, the ancestors of our village have been here for generations." The village chief was still a little out of breath.
"Let's burn incense first." I said, opening my backpack and walking to the open space of the cemetery.
"Come on one by one?" Heizi chased after them with a frown.
"Can we go there one by one until next year? Just a courtesy and express our intention." I said and took out a handful of incense.
"Is it necessary? Just say no." Heizi straightened up impatiently.
"This has the same meaning as knocking on the door. This is someone else's home. Because of our status, we should pay more attention to these etiquette." I said and glared at Heizi.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Heizi said impatiently, but his attitude still became respectful.
I lit a handful of incense, gave three sticks to each person, and stuck the others on the ground.
"There is a severe drought in your village. Today, a few of us were entrusted by the villagers to come to investigate. Please forgive me for disturbing you. We are now offering incense." I said and bowed to the cemetery.
Of course, we did not kneel down, after all, these were not our relatives. We just held up the incense and bowed three times to the cemetery, and then placed the incense on the ground.
"Let's get started." I stood up and said to everyone.
"Start with what?" Heizi came over with a puzzled look on his face.
"Looking for a problem." I replied angrily.
"What problem are you looking for?" Heizi looked at me with his small eyes widened.
"Let's see if any of the tombs are very different from the others, especially the ones with no grass growing on them." I touched my chin and looked at Peony.
If it was really a corpse, Mudan would know better.
"Yes, do as Xiaotian wants, Jiaonan, you come with me." After Mudan said that, she led Zhou Jiaonan into the cemetery.
"Xiaotian, I'm with you." Haitang said and walked over.
"Well, let's go." I nodded, and the two of them walked directly into the cemetery.
"What about me?" Heizi asked loudly, still standing behind.
"Isn't Dahei still there?" he said without looking back.
"Hmph, Dahei, let's go." Heizi angrily led Dahei towards the other direction.
"Have you and Peony guessed what it was?" Haitang asked casually as she observed the tombs around her.
"Peony said it might be a dry corpse." I also carefully looked at the tomb in front of me.
"If it's just a drought corpse, how can it be so powerful? On the way here, I saw that the drought is very serious, and it seems to be spreading." Haitang expressed her doubts.
"Actually, Peony and I are not sure, so we decided to take a look first. If it is really a dry corpse, the tomb will definitely show it." I said and continued walking forward.
The two of us walked very quickly, because the order of burials in this cemetery is very regular, a bit like a cemetery, neatly arranged.
The only difference from the cemetery is the burial, instead of just a monument standing in front of the cemetery.
Although this place is not small, you can still clearly see the situation on the tomb bag at a glance, and you can feel confident after taking a quick glance.
"But we walked around the village and didn't feel any evil spirits." Haitang's unintentional words made me stop in surprise.
"Ouch... why did you stop suddenly..." Haitang bumped into me and complained in pain.
"When you say that, is it really not a problem with the land?" I frowned and looked at Haitang.
"Judging from the cemetery, this place is in a good location. There shouldn't be any problems here, but since I'm here, I'd better take a look first." Haitang said and gave me a push.
"Revenge?" I staggered when she pushed me. In fact, I did it on purpose.
"Huh, so what about revenge?" Haitang raised her eyebrows and pushed me on her waist.
"Don't act coquettishly here. If you have anything to say, go back and tell me." I deliberately teased.
"Come on, come on, you're still a Taoist." Haitang glanced around and pushed me again.
But this time I didn't tease her anymore. It was really inappropriate to have a fight in the cemetery.
However, we who were in charge of the site walked around and found no problems on any of the graves.
This place is indeed well maintained, and every family's grave is clean and neat. The word clean here does not mean that there is no grass, but that there are no unnecessary plants.
Back in the clearing, Mudan and Zhou Jiaonan also came back.
"How's it going?" I stepped forward anxiously and asked.
"I didn't find anything unusual." Mudan shook her head bitterly.
"Just look at Heizi's side." I said and looked in the direction Heizi left.
Everyone looked forward to it and waited for a long time before Heizi ran over with Dahei. Yes, he ran.
Needless to say, something must have been discovered.
"Xiaotian, there is not a blade of grass on Youzun's grave, and the grave is about to collapse." Heizi looked excited, as if he had won a big prize.
"Come on, let's go take a look, village chief, wait a moment." I turned around and said hello, then ran with Heizi, followed closely by the three girls.
"Nuo, look, there's not a blade of grass growing." Arriving at the grave, Heizi excitedly pointed at the grave in front of him and said.
I took a look at the surrounding graves. They were covered with green grass, and some had a few small flowers blooming.
The grave in front of me is indeed barren of grass, and the grave is still somewhat sunken. It looks like it will collapse in a short time.
"Xiaotian..." Mudan called me with a wry smile.
"What's wrong?" He came to Mudan and followed Mudan's gaze.
"Heizi, your uncle, let's go." After saying a few words, I asked everyone to leave.
"What are you doing? Didn't you say you were looking for a grave like this?" Heizi scratched his head innocently and asked in confusion as he stood there.
"This is an empty tomb, no one is buried there." I turned around and replied angrily.
"Ah?" Heizi finally woke up and ran forward to take a look at the empty tombstone.
"Dahei, this is all your fault." Heizi also wanted to throw the blame to Dahei.
"Woof... woof..." What's Dahei's temper? Can you let him?
"I was just talking..." Heizi immediately gave up.
"Dahei, don't make trouble." I stopped and shouted at Dahei. This is a cemetery.
"Ugh..." Dahei then roared at Heizi and ran towards us.
"Master, how are you?" Returning to the open space, the being hurriedly stood up.
"No problem." I frowned.
"Village chief, are there any other cemeteries in your village?" Zhou Jiaonan asked directly.
"In the past few years, people with foreign surnames were indeed buried in another mountain, but then the rules were changed. Now they have all moved here. There is no other place." The village chief said truthfully.
"Is there something wrong with Feng Shui?" His cousin, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.
"Wind refers to air flow. Now that Huhusheng's wind is flowing smoothly, the wind must be fine." Haitang knows more about Feng Shui than I do, so she immediately explained.
"Could it be a water problem?" The village chief became a little nervous.
When he said this, I frowned and looked at Mudan, and she happened to look at me as well.
We have always wondered if something evil was going on, but we have never considered Feng Shui. Maybe there is really something wrong with the water source.
"Village chief, where is the water source for the village?" I asked excitedly.
"The food and drink in the village are basically well water, but the water from the mountain is still used for irrigation." Seeing my excitement, the village explained very seriously.
"Let's go, take us to see the water source." In this case, there is probably something wrong with the water source.
"In the next mountain..." The village chief looked at me with some embarrassment.
"Cousin, you accompany the village chief down the mountain, and we'll go by ourselves." It's almost noon now, and if we ask the village chief to come with us, I'm really worried about tiring him out.
"You keep walking along the path in front of you. You will probably see the stream in an hour or two." His cousin did not forget to show us the way.
"Okay, you guys wait at the bottom of the mountain. If it gets dark and we haven't come back yet, you can go home first." After saying this, we put our bags on our backs and walked towards the trail.
After making sure that the village chief and his cousin could no longer see us, we immediately used the "Cloud Chasing Kick". However, the mountain road was narrow and it still took us more than 20 minutes.
There is a stream in front of you, but judging from the water situation, this is not the source. The water source should be some distance away from here.
"I think the water is fine, it's so clear." Heizi said and bent down to drink from the stream.
"Wait a minute." Haitang suddenly stopped him.
Just like Begonia took a few steps forward and pulled up the water plants near the shore.
"Holy shit..." Heizi was so frightened that he quickly spilled the water in his hand.
