you think of the feng shui here"I scoff, does this even need asking Anyone with a shred of knowledge can see that the feng shui here is terrible.Surrounded by construction sites, the atmosphere is ch...Jiang Qiyun slightly frowned, listening to the hurried words on the other end of the phone, and replied in a low voice: "Hmm, I'm coming now, keep up."

What's wrong I've never heard him talk on the phone for more than three words.

I knew without thinking who was calling. Except for my brother, I can't imagine anyone else making him speak so politely. What could my brother possibly want by calling me this early

"Let's go, your brother has been watching all night. This morning when the hospital opened a side door, a car came to take away a body. He noticed something was strange about that man last night."

Is that Lao Lin Besides him, my brother also mentioned the Nine Aperture Jade last night, which has caught my attention as well.

In ancient times, our ancestors revered jade very much. They believed that jade could ensure people's safety and immortality for the deceased's physical body.

The red blood jade that Jiang Qiyun gave me, the cī lóng jade ring, and the now-missing seal are all made of red blood jade. This shows how spiritual and important jade is.

The so-called Nine Aperture Jade refers to nine jade ornaments placed in the nine orifices of the human body: two pieces for each eye, two for each ear, two for the nostrils, one for the mouth, one for the anus, and one for the genitals.

Eye plugs are coverings for the eyes, earplugs are octagonal prism-shaped, nose plugs are short cylinders, mouth plugs are crescent moon-shaped smiles, they cannot be inserted but only cover. There are also backdoor plugs which are conical platform-shaped and sex organ plugs which differ between male and female.

A little imagination, and this is practically the ancestor of **. Just thinking about it makes my brain burn.

The Jin Dynasty Taoist classic "Huapuzi" conveyed the belief that "gold and jade are found in the nine heavens, so mortals become immortal through them." From then on, nine-hole jade became popular among aristocratic families. This was more realistic than a gold-embroidered jade garment.

But in modern times, this belief has long since waned. With the advancement of technology and society, the methods of embalming have disappeared.

Old Lin told my brother that these corpses had nine orifices jade, he must have wanted to tell my brother something inconvenient to say openly.

Of course, these bodies are not made of real jade, but specially crafted cork or plastic products.

On Taobao, you can easily find many similar ** products. To use them on a corpse is truly disgusting. What kind of person would do such a thing to a body Why was Lao Lin so aggressive towards me

If his mother's last name is Mu, then there's probably some familial connection. The Mu family members are almost all involved in the funeral industry. Since he works as a mortician here, it must be because of "family tradition."

It is said that this line of work also has many taboos, for example: must be a man with strong life fire, no animals can enter, only look straight ahead, cannot turn your head left and right, when you need to look back, you have to turn your whole body over.

I understand this point. Those who walk the Yin-Yang path know that there are two flames on a person's shoulders. If they turn their head, their breath will temporarily disrupt one shoulder's flame, thus weakening their yang energy and making them more susceptible to being possessed by yin spirits.

But imagine, in a morgue like this, you can only walk and turn straight. Living people would look like zombies too...

My brother took the only car in our house. I wanted to ask Jiang Qiyun to go with me first, but he gave me a cold glance: "What if something happens to you Your brother is much smarter than you. Take care of yourself."

I was speechless and could only call Yin Cha Da Bao. On the way, my brother sent me his location, he was already heading to Hulushan in the suburbs.

Hulu Mountain is a crematorium and cemetery complex. It was named after the homophone of "blessing and fortune" (福祿). The surrounding area is filled with black and white shops, all operating in the funeral industry.

I thought this car was towed to the funeral home, but my brother's voice message said: The car drove straight past Hulushan Mountain's gate and around to the back. He couldn't follow anymore; following would expose him, so he could only stop by the roadside and wait for us.

When we arrived, Yin Cha Da Bao immediately grabbed a bag of paper money and went to a secluded corner to perform an offering to the Earth God to get information. My brother whispered to me, "That old Lin, before dawn I saw him carrying out three bodies! Which family would normally take in so many corpses"

Lao Lin's unusual emotions last night have aroused our suspicion, especially his ferocious demeanor forbidding me from entering the autopsy room and his eerie warning to be careful.

Be careful of what If it's just evil spirits or ghosts, I'm not really afraid now, I'm just a little scared of zombies.

Those bodies that had been treated with magic, I couldn't win against them no matter how hard I tried, the spells and incantations had limited effect on them, all I could do was run as far away as possible. And those zombies, one by one, were so repulsive to look at, just seeing them made me involuntarily tremble.

"Last night I snuck around the hospital to find out about Old Lin. He's been working in the morgue since it was built. He's a strange and quiet person, and no one can get close to him. I heard he's from the countryside and lives alone in the city. We should take some time to visit his home!"

My brother watched the hearse disappear into the mountains, frowning with a hint of regret. But there was only one mountain road here, and following it recklessly would surely alert them.

Yincha Da Bao whispered to the Earth God for a while, then came over and reported to us: "This is the back door of the crematorium. It is said that some people who died abnormally or were unclaimed were brought here, piled up together and burned. It's a place to destroy evidence. But these people are definitely not official personnel. They brought them here to cover up their tracks. After the bodies thawed, they would secretly send them away..."

A chill ran down my spine as I thought back to the night we were chased by those zombies. They had brought fresh, rotting corpses with them. Could these be the source of their supply

A black and gray bird suddenly shrieked, its voice like a banshee’s wail, short and piercing.

I pulled my neck back and saw a tiny owl perched on a branch, staring at us warily.

That is an owl. Because it flies silently at night like a ghost and has a shrill cry, it is called a "nightcat," "death omen bird," or "soul stealer."

Wasn't this bird wrongly killed

Jiang Qiyun beckoned to the bird with his finger, and the bird, as if possessed, flew toward him and perched obediently on his forearm.

He pinched at me with incomprehensible seals, his speed so fast that I only saw a few points of cold light merging into the hawk's body.

The morning mist still lingered in the forest, and this owl transformed into a half-human shadow standing under a tree. My brother and I gaped at it with wide eyes.

"Go... and scare those people inside, force them out. This seat doesn't have time to waste here..." Jiang Qiyun's clear voice, like a whispered curse, caused the ignorant, half-human creature to let out a shrill screech and flee towards the back mountains.

"This...this..." I stuttered, unable to contain my astonishment at this incredible magic.

Jiang Qiyun said coldly, "…It's just a little spell. Which honored deity wouldn't know how"

He paused, then suddenly let out a self-deprecating chuckle.

"Qingrui and Qingluan, weren't they like this too…"e this kind of room, how am I supposed to sleep!" I was just about to get into bed!Now I don't even want my feet to touch the ground.Jiang Qiyun sneered: "What are you afraid of with me here The one...
