What should my president do when he encounters non-human beings all the time?
Chapter 5 Ancestral Tomb Stolen
This house is made of wood, it looks old, and it is more delicately built. It is only ten kilometers away from Chu Shengjiang's hometown.
Chu Shengjiang got off the car and walked to Master, looking around curiously.
The host took a rough look: "Mrs. Zhao, do you have very few people taking care of your house?"
Mrs. Zhao nodded and said, "Only the old housekeeper and his wife are here to take care of us here. Our family moved to the city decades ago, and we only come back to get together with relatives during Chinese New Year or major events."
Several people entered the house and immediately felt the deserted scene in the house.
Chu Shengjiang felt that besides the desertedness, there was also a gloomy taste.
"Master, is this house?" Into a wild ghost?Chu Shengjiang didn't say what he said later, there are some things that cannot be broken.
The viewer nodded, and said to Mrs. Zhao: "When did your housekeeper notice the voices of outsiders in the house?"
Mrs. Zhao asked the housekeeper to come out and describe the scene at that time.
The housekeeper is nearly 60 years old, and his body is still strong. He replied in not very standard Mandarin: "About three nights ago, my wolf dog Ah Huang suddenly barked inexplicably. I got up and turned on the light. Turned around and found nothing.
When I was about to go back to sleep, I heard movement in the hall. I thought it was a mouse, and the next day I searched the corners of the house to see where there were mouse holes.
Then it was very strange. My wife is usually responsible for simple cleaning. When she was cleaning the ancestral hall, she found that the characters on the enshrined tablets in the ancestral hall had changed.
Originally, most of the names started with Zhao, but suddenly they have all kinds of surnames.I immediately told Boss Zhao's housekeeper in the city. "
The Guanzhu said: "Can we go to see the ancestral hall?"
"Of course, master." Mrs. Zhao said.
Every year during the Chinese New Year, Zhao Qianyuan has to come to the ancestral hall to worship, which is an inherent ritual.
But he actually doesn't believe in this kind of theory of gods and ghosts at all, and he is skeptical about the idea that the tablets have been changed.
When he saw the tablet, the first thing he thought was that someone had moved the tablet in our house: "Mom, could it be that a thief broke in, and no one in our house came to play a prank?"
Mrs. Zhao had already looked at those tablets before inviting the audience. She was very familiar with those tablets. She shook her head and said, "I have looked at these tablets for many years. The tablets here are the same ones, only the characters are different."
The temple master took a closer look at the ancestral hall and said, "I understand, Mrs. Zhao, let's talk outside the house."
Everyone moved out of the house.
The Guanzhu said: "There are guest ghosts here, and there is usually no popularity here, so the guest ghosts took advantage of it."
Mrs. Zhao was a little scared when she heard this: "Is there any way to drive them away?"
The temple master replied: "Today we will live here first, and it will be easier to drive away the guest ghosts when we are popular. I need to prepare and set up an altar. When the time comes, I will feed the guest ghosts. Please leave them. Just don't mention the guest ghosts in the house." Ghost, it’s not easy to let them notice.”
Mrs. Zhao quickly agreed: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Chu Shengjiang said: "Master, then shall I arrange the talisman first?"
The Guanzhu said: "Go, you will also buy some things you need to build the altar."
"It's on me." Chu Shengjiang was about to set off full of confidence.
Mrs. Zhao didn't say a few words when she saw that Zhao Qianyuan was coming, so she said, "I don't think Xiaojiang is familiar with Lu Xiaojiang in the vegetable market here. Xiaoyuan, it's boring for you to stay here. You can take Xiaojiang there."
Zhao Qianyuan agreed, and the two walked together.
At this time, you should curry favor with your boss, right?Chu Shengjiang thought for a while, walking together is very rare, and it seems that it is not good to say nothing, so he said: "Boss, your ancestors are also rich, right? The house is quite big."
Zhao Qianyuan said: "Well, I used to be an official in the Qing Dynasty, and then the war broke out, and the family fortune fell. My grandfather's generation started from scratch and saved the current family business."
"It's amazing. My family is just an ordinary family, and I have never had such high-ranking officials." Chu Shengjiang guessed that it would take this time to accumulate such a family business.
"Are you envious?" Zhao Qianyuan asked.
"Ah? I'm envious." Chu Shengjiang felt that Zhao Qianyuan's chatting skills appeared again.
"You can also work hard to be a rich generation." Zhao Qianyuan said.
Chu Shengjiang thought for a while, and made a smiling expression: "That's too difficult, I should just work honestly for now."
Zhao Qianyuan thought it was fun to tease Chu Shengjiang, after all, his subordinates couldn't tell whether he did it on purpose.
Arriving at the vegetable market, Chu Shengjiang chose a chicken and a duck for the stall owner to handle, and bought some offering fruits, glutinous rice and rice wine for Zhao Qianyuan to help carry.
Incense, cinnabar and talisman paper are all carried by the temple master, so there is no need to buy them.
After returning, Chu Shengjiang chanted a spell and pasted the talisman paper on the corners of the yard.
"What are you doing with three layers?" Zhao Qianyuan questioned while watching.
Chu Shengjiang squatted and mumbled, and said, "I don't have enough mana. I don't know if all the talisman papers will be effective. After sticking three layers, one layer will always work."
Zhao Qianyuan said: "This method sounds like a lot of luck, how is your luck usually?"
Chu Shengjiang said helplessly: "It's very ordinary, and the chance of getting a good card in the card game is not high."
After posting the talisman, Chu Shengjiang went to play with the sacrifices he put on the altar table. He cooked the chicken and duck simply, so it doesn't have to be too good for the guest ghosts, it can be casual.
Zhao Qianyuan had nothing to do, so he walked up and down with him, watching him busy making preparations.
After the preparations were completed, Chu Shengjiang sat on the chair and joked: "Boss, this time I will come to your house to do things during the rest time. Does that count as my working overtime?"
Zhao Qianyuan said, "My mother invited you, not me. If you want a tip, you can go to my mother."
Chu Shengjiang said with a smile: "I just said that casually, my master will not let me go and sit on the ground and raise the price."
"I'm looking forward to seeing your master perform Taoism. This kind of thing seems like a fantasy."
"Just wait, I am also looking forward to it, and I can learn new knowledge again."
The next night, because it had been raining recently, the stars and the moon in the sky were dimmed.
The master stood in front of the altar and chanted a spell to summon the guest ghosts: "The poor people who have no fixed place to live, come out quickly. There are delicious food and drinks here. You can eat the incense on this altar."
A few guest ghosts came out, and they all jumped on the altar to eat. There were also a few guest ghosts who were confused and didn't look very hungry.
Chu Shengjiang dripped tears of cow's tears from one eye as usual, but Zhao Qianyuan couldn't see anything. He only knew that the temperature of the venue dropped significantly as the voice of the temple master fell.
Chu Shengjiang and the temple master were very puzzled by those dumb guest ghosts, this state was not right.
The viewer drew close to a few guest ghosts who had no reaction to the altar and asked, "Why don't you eat the offerings from the altar?"
The guest ghost said: "Someone in my family is offering to me. I'm not hungry."
Chu Shengjiang thought of the digging of the ancestral grave that his mother knew yesterday, and asked, "Which village are you from, and what are you doing here?"
"I'm from Yuanliu Village, master, how did I get here?" This turned into a guest ghost asking the master.
"Our village!" Chu Shengjiang was a little excited, "Master, three days ago in our village, many people's graves were dug. I think there must be a relationship between the two."
With a wave of his sleeves, the temple master expelled those free-eating guest ghosts from the house, leaving the normal guest ghosts behind.
"I've also heard about that incident. I have taken away all the ghosts that are not short of offerings. After this place is over, let's go to Yuanliu Village."
Zhao Qianyuan said: "I'll go too, someone must be planning this matter. Master, if our house is haunted by ghosts, what will happen?"
The viewer said: "The ancestral house is the foundation of your family. The ghosts and ghosts are too vicious. It will make the descendants of the master's family go bankrupt at least, and even make your family members seriously ill."
"Boss, did your family offend someone? That they want to fight you like this?" Chu Shengjiang asked doubtfully.
Zhao Qianyuan said indifferently: "Business competition will inevitably lead to stumbling blocks with others, but there is no one who has formed such a big enmity, but maybe I don't think it is such a big enmity, others will think so."
Chu Shengjiang understood, maybe with the boss's self-confident and indifferent personality, there are many situations where people are offended and people don't know it.
After a brief tidying up, the few of them went to bed.
Early morning is another busy day, it is already the third day of the holiday, and this holiday is too fulfilling, Chu Shengjiang thought.
The three of them went to Yuanliu Village by car.
At Chu Shengjiang's house, his mother ate breakfast and knit a sweater at the door to bask in the sun.
"Mom, I brought Master to see you."
"Hey, why did you come here? Come in and sit down. Thank you Master for taking care of me these two days." Chu Ma said enthusiastically.
The temple master smiled and said: "Where is Mama Chu, I don't need to worry too much about Xiao Jiang, so we won't sit any longer. I heard from Xiao Jiang that your family's ancestral grave was stolen and dug up. I mainly came to see this matter."
"Okay, then let's go and have a look." Chu Ma immediately led them to the direction of the ancestral grave.
On the way, Chu's mother knew that Zhao Qianyuan was Chu Shengjiang's boss, so she kept inviting him to have lunch at home later.
The place where the ancestral graves are buried is a treasured place of geomantic omen. Most of the family's ancestral graves in the village are in this area, and everyone's luck is shared equally.
The temple master looked carefully at the excavated parts. The excavated soil did not seem to be very deep, but there must be something strange if the thief did not leave.
He let Chu Shengjiang's small shovel come in handy.In order to prevent the ancestors from blaming him, he took Chu Shengjiang to recite scriptures to appease the ancestors for a period of time.
Then Chu Shengjiang continued to dig deeper into the loose soil. After digging for a while, they found that the coffin below was opened.
And the bones that should have stayed inside were gone.
It turned out that the part that was dug up was actually the soil that was hastily buried back. Because the cover was not tight, it looked like it had been dug in half and did not continue digging.
It's okay to steal funeral objects, but stealing bones is a bit intriguing.
Chu Shengjiang got off the car and walked to Master, looking around curiously.
The host took a rough look: "Mrs. Zhao, do you have very few people taking care of your house?"
Mrs. Zhao nodded and said, "Only the old housekeeper and his wife are here to take care of us here. Our family moved to the city decades ago, and we only come back to get together with relatives during Chinese New Year or major events."
