Chapter 78: Abandoned Grave in the Mountains

That night, the two of them stayed in the He family mansion. There were guest rooms prepared in the backyard, one for each of them.

Chen Yan lived quite comfortably there - in this wealthy family's home, all the furniture, facilities and daily necessities were high-end goods.

That night, Chen Yan meditated and practiced the movement of vital energy for a while, and did not fall asleep until the second half of the night.

At dawn, Chen Yan got up after sleeping for less than four hours. With his energy replenished, he was full of energy and vigor.

He first checked WeChat on his phone, but there was no message from Gu Qingyi. He thought about it and took the initiative to send a message to this young lady Gu to let her know that she was safe. After waiting for a few minutes, he received no reply.

Well, Tianren’s stepmother is indeed very aloof.

When I got up and walked out the door, I saw Chu Keqing standing in the open space in the backyard.

The winter morning was very cold. Today, Chu Keqing was going to explore the mountains. She finally stopped wearing the cheongsam that would make men's eyes go blank. Instead, she wore a down sweater, jeans, and hiking shoes. She also carried a backpack on her back.

Chen Yan took a look and couldn't help but smile.

This woman has always been a sexy, beautiful mature woman, but after changing her outfit today, she looks a little younger.

"Good morning, senior." Chu Keqing greeted him politely.

Chen Yan looked at her with some confusion: "You haven't been standing here waiting for me to come out this morning, have you?"

Chu Keqing said solemnly, "Ever since you, Senior, showed me your kindness in correcting our sect's techniques yesterday, I have made up my mind to treat you with respect as a teacher from now on. In front of you, I, Chu Keqing, will act as a disciple!"

Chen Yan raised his eyebrows and glanced at the woman.

Hey...actually...you can just give the money directly!

You can transfer money or scan the code. The more zeros after the number, the happier I am.

What's this about treating each other with respect as a teacher and treating each other with respect as a disciple...why don't you be practical?

Chen Yan took Chu Keqing out of the backyard and came to the restaurant in front. The He family's nanny had already prepared breakfast.

During the meal, Chen Yan said nothing. Chu Keqing thought that this senior was thinking about various doubts. Little did she know that this senior Chen was actually thinking: How can I let this woman know without leaving any trace that I have a girlish heart that likes pink?

After breakfast, Chu Keqing met with Boss He, and after a brief conversation, she set off with Chen Yan to investigate in the mountains.

Boss He did not send anyone as Chu Keqing requested, but only gave Chu Keqing a car to use.

Chu Keqing drove the car and Chen Yan sat in the passenger seat. The two drove along yesterday's road to the foot of the mountain and then walked up the mountain.

Walking up the mountain, they first arrived at the He family's ancestral tomb. Chu Keqing stopped to rest for a few minutes, drank a few sips of water, and then looked at Chen Yan: "Senior, where should we start?"

Chen Yan shook his head: "We don't even know where the target is, so it doesn't matter where we start. Frankly speaking, we're just trying our luck today. We'll just wander around the mountains and use the Qi-gazing technique to search around and see if we can stumble upon anything lucky and make a discovery.

It’s good to make a discovery, but don’t be discouraged if you don’t.

Anyway, it’s better to go out for a walk and breathe the fresh mountain air than to stay in the He family mansion.”

After a pause, Chen Yan deliberately glanced at Chu Keqing: "Don't you think that staying in that mansion for too long is so lifeless that it makes people feel suffocated?"

Chu Keqing looked at Chen Yan, then shook her head: "I didn't notice it."

She just thought that this senior was probably bored at home and wanted to go for a walk in the mountains.

The two of them just wandered around in the mountains for the whole morning, and during that time nothing clichéd like "the woman sprained her ankle or was in danger, the man came to her aid, then carried the woman on his back, and sparks flew between the lonely man and woman in the deep mountains" happened.

However, Chu Keqing discovered a detail: this Senior Chen would always, intentionally or unintentionally, fall behind her when climbing the mountain...

She is a woman, and more importantly, a woman who has been admired by men around her since she was a child because of her beauty. Her thoughts on men are not like those of Lu Sisi, an ignorant little girl.

Any woman who is beautiful and self-aware like this has been looked at and noticed by countless men since childhood. She actually knows exactly what men are looking at and thinking.

(This senior, despite being quite old, is… not very serious. He really is a scumbag!)

Chu Keqing blushed secretly as she walked along the hillside, but was too embarrassed to speak out. Then she thought of the prescription she had read, and thought that this elder must have had an excessive amount of "fire"... Chu Keqing's face flushed even more.

Chen Yan, who was following behind Chu Keqing, was enjoying it.

Well, when you look up, you can see a round peach swaying in front of you.

Pleasant to watch!

·
At noon, the two of them were already standing on the top of the western mountain, which was actually quite a distance away from the He family's ancestral tomb.

When he reached the top of the mountain, Chen Yan chose a high place to stand, and looked around as his vital energy circulated.

This place is the highest point on the western hill, which is also the western hill of the "Green Dragon on the left and White Tiger on the right" that Chen Yan saw when he stood at the He family's ancestral tomb, the place of the Green Dragon.

With such a high terrain, you can stand higher and see farther, and you can almost see everything at the bottom of the mountain.

Under the technique of looking at qi, the gray energy in this mountain area is flowing, which is much more abundant and richer than the energy in the city.

In Chen Yan's field of vision, he saw a place on the side of the mountain where the surrounding vital energy flowed over, then was nourished there and no longer dispersed. Judging from his appearance, it should be the He family's ancestral tomb, which absorbed the surrounding vital energy with its advantageous geographical location.

But when he looked into the mountain again, Chen Yan's eyes moved and he exclaimed, "Huh?"

Behind his left hand, at the foot of the mountain, there was an area. He used the Qi-gazing technique to observe that the vital energy at the foot of the mountain was weak and thin, the breath was stagnant, and even the vegetation in that area seemed much sparser than elsewhere in the mountain.

Looking closely, even the vital energy of that area was flowing in one direction. Following the direction of the vital energy, it was the place where the He family's ancestral tomb was located.

This is strange!
It seemed as if the He family's ancestral tomb on the hillside was using a force similar to that of a "dragon sucking water" to slowly extract the vital energy from the area at the bottom of the mountain for its own use.

Chen Yan was watching when Chu Keqing walked up to him.

The woman had a trace of fatigue in her eyes. She took out some bread and pastries from her backpack, handed a piece of toast to Chen Yan, and stuffed a bottle of mineral water in his hand. She said, "Senior, it's noon. Let's eat something."

Chen Yan took it casually and glanced at the woman - Chu Keqing had been climbing the mountain for a whole morning, and her face was flushed. Beads of sweat could be seen faintly on her forehead, and she was slightly out of breath.

Although her Yun Zong's martial arts were incomplete and lacked the effect of nourishing the body with vital energy, she had practiced vital energy for so many years, and her body had benefited to some extent, and her physical fitness was better than that of ordinary people.

But a morning's trek was a bit overwhelming for Chu Keqing, who was used to a life of luxury in the city.

"Look at that place." Chen Yan didn't have much sympathy for the woman, so he calmly pointed and made way for her.

Chu Keqing walked over and took a look. Then his expression became more serious. He stared carefully in that direction for more than ten seconds before frowning and saying, "Senior, the flow of vital energy in that place is a bit strange."

"Yeah." Chen Yan found a hilltop to sit down, unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and took two sips, then stuffed a piece of bread into his mouth and said vaguely, "The vitality of that place was sucked away by the He family's ancestral tomb."

Chu Keqing did have some real skills after all. She squinted her eyes and looked at it for a while, then whispered, "There's something strange. It's not just the vital energy that's been sucked away, but also a trace of luck that's been sucked away along with the vital energy."

Chen Yan looked up at Chu Keqing and said with a smile, "Tell me."

Chu Keqing thought it was just a question from the senior. After a moment of deep thought, he said seriously, "That place was originally a depression in the mountains. The surrounding vital energy would flow there and be gathered by the surrounding mountains. So, logically speaking, the vital energy there should be very rich.

But... because of the existence of the He family's ancestral tomb, there is a He family's ancestral tomb on that hilltop, which attracts good luck with its shady and secluded place. In addition, it has the advantageous shape of [a dragon chasing the sun], which creates a kind of attraction to good luck.

The so-called water flows to the low places and air rises to the high places.

The loss of vitality or luck often drifts upwards.

The He family's ancestral tomb is located just above that area, and because of its advantageous location, it's like sitting right on top of it. After the energy is sucked away, the He family's ancestral tomb will benefit the most!

Chen Yan swallowed the bread in his mouth with water and nodded, "That's right, let's go and take a look!"

·
The two walked in the mountains, and Chu Keqing even took out a hiking stick for assistance. However, Chen Yan was in good shape and showed no sign of physical weakness.

After he had built up his vital energy, his physical strength was now several times greater than that of an ordinary person. He walked in the mountains for most of the day without feeling tired at all.

Later on, Chen Yan no longer cared about admiring the peaches. Instead, he took the initiative to walk to the front, reached out and grabbed Chu Keqing's trekking pole, and pulled her forward.

The two walked for about an hour and finally reached the valley.

When we walked down, we found that the vegetation here was withered, dead grass was everywhere, and the trees were crooked and had sparse branches and leaves.

However, there is no road in the mountains, which seems to indicate that no one usually comes to such a place.

As they walked down the hill and into the valley, both of their eyes subconsciously lit up!
In the valley, there are ruins of broken walls and low skirt walls in a circle, one by one, one piece by one, but they are all collapsed and scattered.

There is also a stone tablet, but after being weathered by wind and rain for who knows how many years, it looks tattered and only half is left, and the other half is lying on the ground, buried in the weeds.

The smell of rotten branches and dead leaves accumulated in this valley. The cold and damp smell was very unpleasant.

Chen Yan said nothing, but walked to the half-broken stone tablet and took a look.

The stone tablet was about the height of a man, but only half of it remained, reaching Chen Yan's waist. The base was buried in the weeds. Next to it were several low, tattered stone sculptures, their features clearly visible, probably some kind of guardian beast.

Chu Keqing squinted her eyes and looked at it for a while, then whispered, "Senior... this is an ancient tomb! These carved stone beasts are all guardians of the tomb."

Chen Yan nodded, said nothing, and continued to stare at the stone tablet in silence.

Chu Keqing whispered, "There's more than one tomb. The deepest one in the center has the largest walls. The other tombs are also located one after another, and they are all arranged in a certain order. The landslide in this area has occurred, and most of the tombs must have been buried."

Chen Yan thought for a moment and said, "So, it's an ancestral tomb? Perhaps it's the tomb of some wealthy family from ancient times?"

Chu Keqing whispered, "Hmm, it looks like there are graves everywhere. They must be the ancestral tombs of some ancient family. However... they are so dilapidated. Perhaps that family has moved away, or perhaps the entire family has been lost in history."

Chen Yan frowned, then looked up and glanced in the direction of the He family's ancestral tomb on the mountain.

The luck... was also taken away by the He family.

·
When people describe a family’s prosperity, they often use a saying: Smoke is coming out of the ancestral grave.

Chen Yan had also read in what he had learned: Luck is something elusive and traceless, but for a family, the place where the luck is most concentrated is often the ancestral tomb!

The ancestral tomb is often the root of a family's fortune.

Therefore, famous and powerful families often attach great importance to the location of their ancestral tombs. Selecting a site and worshipping are all top priorities.

A family's fortune is often the strongest and most concentrated in its ancestral tomb.

The gathering of luck in the ancestral tomb will be reflected in the descendants of the family. If it is a famous family with a deep foundation, once a talented person appears in the family, it will be easy for him to make a fortune and rise to prominence.

This is what people often call "the blessing of ancestors". In fact, it is the good fortune accumulated by ancestors over generations, which is fulfilled on a certain individual.

The personal success and prosperity of descendants will further feed the luck back to the ancestral tomb, making the family's luck even stronger.

To put it in an analogy, the family's ancestral tomb is like a private bank that is only open to business within the family.

Lend the currency of [luck] to outstanding children in the family. When the children become prosperous, they will also give more luck to the bank.

That's how accumulation is done.

This kind of fortune and destiny is also the foundation for the long-lasting prosperity of some families with a long history.

Good fortune will gather in the ancestral tomb for a long time, even if the family declines, falls, or even breaks up.

As long as the ancestral tomb is still there, the luck will not disappear immediately, but can continue to be maintained for a long time, waiting for an outstanding person to emerge from the family, rise again, and revive the family's luck.

Of course, this maintenance won’t last forever!

If the time is too long, the family is too ruined and the bloodline is cut off, or the descendants are mediocre and unable to rise up, the luck gathered in the ancestral tomb will gradually dissipate and return to the natural order of this world.

I don’t know which family this ancient tomb in front of me belongs to... No matter who it is, after the luck of this place is lost, the first to benefit will be the He family’s ancestral tomb on the mountain!

The direction in which the luck flowed was exactly towards the He family.

If there were no He family ancestral tomb, the mountain would not be able to retain the energy. The energy here would flow out and dissipate between heaven and earth, return to the way of heaven, and re-enter the cycle of energy.

But because of the existence of the He family's ancestral tomb, with the power of the cemetery and the advantageous location, no matter how much luck flows out from here, it will be attracted to the He family's ancestral tomb and intercepted!
"Senior... could it be... that the He family's ancestors deliberately set up the ancestral tomb on that hilltop in order to steal the luck of this ancient tomb? They stole other people's luck and then harmed this entire family?" Chu Keqing whispered with a sharp gaze - she had been in the business of metaphysics for many years and had done a lot of things like helping people to choose burial sites and tombs, so she had heard of this kind of insidious method.

Chen Yan sighed, finally withdrawing his gaze from the broken stele. "Come and take a look at the words on this stele."

Chu Keqing walked over and squatted down to look at it for a while, and her expression changed slightly!
Although only half of the tombstone remains, the remaining words on it are mostly damaged and worn out, and 90% of them are unrecognizable.

However, the family's surname happened to be left under the tombstone, and the words were well preserved and could be clearly seen!
Chu Keqing lost her voice and said, "This family... is surnamed Sun!"

·
Chu Keqing reacted very quickly and immediately thought of Mrs. He from the He family, Sun Chen.

However, she then carefully examined the remaining text on the stele and frowned, saying, "The remaining text below the stele has the year number..."

"Yeah." Chen Yan nodded.

There is a year number under the inscription, which can be used to determine its age.

This era name is [the second year of Qingli].

If it were any other era name, Chen Yan probably wouldn't recognize it - he wasn't an expert in history.

However, the reign title Qingli is different.

Most people have been to school, and at least learned that "In the spring of the fourth year of the Qingli reign, Teng Zijing was exiled to Baling County..."

When I was in middle school, I also memorized this "Yueyang Tower Inscription".

So he remembered very clearly that "Qingli" was the reign title during the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Northern Song Dynasty.

This means that it should be nearly a thousand years ago.

I remember that when we were in class, the teacher specifically taught them to calculate accurately. The spring of the fourth year of the Qingli period in the textbook was 1044 AD.

Chu Keqing thought for a moment and continued, "The second year of the Qingli period in the Northern Song Dynasty, that was almost a thousand years ago."

Chen Yan glanced at the woman and said with a smile, "You know this is the reign title of the Northern Song Dynasty. You seem to have memorized the Yueyang Tower Inscription very well."

Chu Keqing blushed, looking a little strange, but shook her head and said, "I dare not hide it from you, Senior. I...actually, I have never recited the Yueyang Tower Record."

Huh? Chen Yan was a little surprised: "You..."

"I have never been to school." Chu Keqing shook her head and said this quietly.

Chen Yan frowned: "Didn't you get into university?"

Hey, that’s not right. Yueyang Tower Inscription is not a university textbook, it’s from middle school.

Chu Keqing took a deep breath, her eyes a little complicated, and she slowly said, "I, actually, have never been to school since I was a child. I have been studying with my master in the school since I was a child. My master's education is a bit like that of an old-fashioned private school. He taught me by words and deeds, and all of them are the Four Books and Five Classics and the I Ching and the Eight Trigrams. He mainly studied metaphysics and numerology.

Poetry and prose are considered miscellaneous studies, and my master did not teach me to read them."

Chen Yan was a little curious: "Then how did you recognize the reign title of Qingli?"

Chu Keqing's face actually showed a bit of shyness like a little girl, and she whispered: "I... I have seen "Joy of Life"."

Ok!

Chen Yan really didn't expect this.

Seeing that Chu Keqing was a little embarrassed, Chen Yan waved his hand: "It's okay, go on."

"Yes." Chu Keqing exhaled and continued, "The He family moved here only three hundred years ago - there is a difference of seven hundred years between the age of this ancestral tomb and that of the He family.

So, the He family probably didn't intentionally harm the Sun family by placing their ancestral tomb on the hilltop to steal their luck. With a gap of seven hundred years, perhaps the Sun family would have long since ceased to exist, or perhaps they would have fallen apart and declined."

After a pause, Chu Keqing pondered for a moment and added, "Based on the scale and construction style of this ancient tomb, the Sun family must be a family of officials. Their ancestors must have held official positions to build a tomb of such specifications. However, I haven't heard of a large family with the surname Sun in this place."

Looking at the ancient tomb again, Chu Keqing sighed with some regret: "What a pity, most of this area was buried by the collapsed mountain. There are not many left outside, and they are all damaged. The two of us can't examine it carefully."

Chen Yan showed no regret at all. He shook his head and said, "Whether the He family's ancestors deliberately set up an ancestral tomb on the mountain to steal the Sun family's luck is hard to say. Even if they did, it was done three hundred years ago. The people who did it are now reduced to dust. We can't drag them out to be punished. And we are not here to survey the ancient tomb."

Chu Keqing looked at Chen Yan: "Senior, what do you mean?"

"What I mean is that convicting the He family's ancestors is not our goal this time. Let's take care of the things at hand first." Chen Yan waved his hand: "First, check this 'Sun' character to see if it has any connection with Mrs. He's Sun Chen."

As he spoke, Chen Yan took out his cell phone and took a few photos of the ancient tomb, and even took several careful photos of the half of the stone tablet.

Then the two of them went down the mountain, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon when they reached the foot of the mountain.

On this day, while searching in the mountains, we didn't find any monsters or spirits, but we did find an ancient tomb that was a thousand years old.

As soon as she got into the car, Chu Keqing's cell phone rang. Seeing that it was her female assistant who called, she answered it immediately.

On the phone, the female assistant's voice was a little excited: "Master Zi, I have found out the situation of the Sun family."

When Chu Keqing heard the assistant's tone, she knew she must have discovered something. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "Speak!"

"Ms. Sun Chen's father has a younger brother, who is Sun Chen's uncle. His name is Sun Zhihui, and he is fifty-four years old. He has a son named Sun Xiaofei, who is Mrs. He Sun Chen's cousin. I have inquired about it, and the story is similar to what Senior Chen Yan found out.

Sun Xiaofei died four years ago. He was a drug addict and had been forced to undergo drug rehabilitation. He committed suicide by jumping off a building four years ago because he couldn't repay a loan sharking loan. He lost control of his emotions and jumped to his death. He was 25 years old when he died.

Chu Keqing frowned after hearing this and said, "You went out last night, and in such a long time until this afternoon, is this all you have found out?"

What the female assistant said was almost the same as what Chen Yan had found out while playing mahjong last night. He just found out the names and ages of the family, which was better than nothing.

The female assistant quickly said, "Of course there are other possibilities. I found out about Sun Zhihui, Mrs. He's uncle. His family originally lived in the next county, and Sun Zhihui worked as a mechanical maintenance worker at the official copper company's mine in the next county.

They used to live in the county town next door, but a year ago, his wife also passed away. I heard she died of cancer.

Sun Zhihui resigned from the company, and then it was heard that he was poached by a small private mine at a high price to work as a mechanical maintenance master.

Just half a year ago, this person resigned again, but this time after leaving, no one knew where he went.

I even went to the next county and looked for him at his home, but found out that his house had been sold. I asked the current owner, and he said he bought the house from Sun Zhihui six months ago!

Chu Keqing answered the phone with the speaker turned on, and Chen Yan could hear the female assistant's words clearly.

After hearing this, Chen Yan nodded and said, "Any other discoveries?"

"No more for now." The female assistant said quickly, "If you have any other instructions or need me to investigate, I'll get on with it!"

Chen Yan thought for a moment and said, "Go to the county library or archives and look through the county annals to see if there was a large family with the surname Sun in the local area in ancient times. Focus your search on the Northern Song Dynasty and after."

Then, find a way to investigate whether Mrs. He Sunchen's Sun family has any connection with the Sun family I asked you to investigate, and whether they are descendants of this Sun family."

Ordinary people don’t know that from ancient times to the present, in every place in Longguo, the county-level government will compile a "county chronicle" to record some major events that occurred locally, or some local celebrities and famous events - this tradition has existed in all dynasties.

To put it simply and roughly, it can be regarded as a history book at the county level.

These documents are basically kept in local libraries or archives. Even if dynasties change, these county annals will generally be preserved and continue to be repaired and written.

The female assistant quickly agreed, and Chu Keqing gave a few more instructions before hanging up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Chu Keqing sat in the driver's seat and couldn't help but look at Chen Yan: "Senior..."

Chen Yan leaned back, thought for a moment, and then whispered, "I think we can make a rough guess about what happened."

Chu Keqing sighed and nodded silently.

At this moment, the two of them actually had a common judgment on the matter:

Sun Zhihui lost his son four years ago and his wife last year, leaving him alone. Furthermore, when his son was arrested for drug abuse, the He family severed ties with them, revoking the preferential treatment and care they had previously given him.

After his son's death, Sun Zhihui actually brought people to the house to make a scene - this just shows that this guy is an unreasonable and confused bastard.

His son died, and later his wife also died. Judging from this man's behavior, he had enough reason to resent Old Lady He - it was Old Lady He who ordered her not to care about his son's affairs and cut off contact between the two families.

So, when his son and wife died, Sun Zhihui became a lonely man, and it is very likely that he placed all his hatred and resentment on Old Mrs. He.

He had enough motive for revenge.

Theoretically speaking, Sun Zhihui, who has lost his wife and children and has no worries in his old age, has become an "invincible" person and has sufficient reasons to abandon everything and take risks.

He sold the only house he lived in half a year ago. He probably started planning his revenge from that time, and selling the house was a way to raise money.

The three people in He Village, Ding Youquan, Wang Dasheng, and He Denian, should all be accomplices bribed by Sun Zhihui.

After being bribed by Sun Zhihui, the three men had already made plans against the He family.

So when the old lady of the He family passed away, the three of them did not dare to go to the house to pay their respects because they had a guilty conscience.

After all, I had already made plans to destroy someone's grave, so I felt a little guilty and didn't dare to go to the mourning hall.

"Sun Zhihui works in a mine. He should be able to get explosives like dynamite." Chen Yan sighed.

Chu Keqing nodded: "So, the tomb was not destroyed by the gentle slope of the mountain collapse caused by heavy rain, but... dynamite!"

"It was raining heavily on the day we did it, and there might have been thunder. This mountain is not too far from the village, and with the sound of rain as cover, it would be difficult for anyone to detect an explosion. Even if someone heard it, they would mistake it for thunder." Chen Yan said quickly, "The traces left afterward would also be difficult to detect.

Firstly, it rained heavily all night. Even if the explosion left behind a lot of sulfur, saltpeter, and other substances, a night of heavy rain would be enough to wash away 99% of the traces. Not to mention the landslides and collapses, which also buried many traces..."

When Chen Yan said this, before he could continue, Chu Keqing's eyes lit up and she continued, following Chen Yan's words:
"Secondly, cemeteries are often not short of fireworks. Traditionally, firecrackers have been set off at burial sites. Therefore, it wouldn't be surprising to find residues of sulfur, saltpeter, or the like near cemeteries. Senior Chen Yan, is that what you mean?"

Chen Yan nodded: "Not bad."

Chu Keqing: "So, our general guess is that Mrs. He's uncle, Sun Zhihui, in order to take revenge on the He family, bribed three village ruffians to help him. Taking advantage of the heavy rain, they used explosives to collapse the hillside and destroyed Mrs. He's tomb. Is this a form of revenge?"

Chen Yan smiled and said nothing.

Selfish, extreme-minded idiots—there's no shortage of this kind of trash in the world.

After his son died, Sun Zhihui did not reflect on his inadequate education and discipline of his son, which led his son astray and eventually to his death.

But he blamed the He family for not helping, and he was resentful of the He family and went to their house to make trouble.

There is really no point in talking to such people.

"Mrs. He rarely goes out on weekdays, and the He family lives in a large compound with skilled security guards. Even if he wanted to take revenge on the He family directly, he couldn't even get through the door.

Because he had fallen out with the He family before, he was even on the He family's blacklist. If he came to cause trouble again, he might be discovered as soon as he walked into the village.

So, in the end, they came up with a way to take revenge on the dead, the insidious method of destroying people’s graves, which is also ridiculous..."

Chen Yan sighed when he said this.

Chu Keqing lowered her head and thought for a while, but when she raised her head, her face looked a little ugly.

"Senior, so... the three people who died in He Village were all accomplices of Sun Zhihui. They all died recently after destroying the old lady's grave. This... looks very much like an act of revenge!"

Chu Keqing said, also looking at Chen Yan: "You say... could it be that Boss He found out about what happened, and then took revenge and killed these three people?"

Chen Yan looked at Chu Keqing: "What do you think?"

Chu Keqing hesitated for a moment: "I don't think it's Mr. He. If it was him, he would already know who destroyed the tomb, so there would be no need for me to help him investigate this matter. And...

Yesterday, when we came down the mountain, we encountered Ding Youquan's funeral procession. I was standing next to Mr. He at the time, and his performance was flawless. If he was the one who ordered Ding Youquan's death... then his acting was really good.

Seeing that Chen Yan was silent, Chu Keqing frowned and asked, "Is it possible that Sun Zhihui killed someone to silence him?"

Chen Yan sighed, his tone dark: "Sun Zhihui... If I'm not mistaken, he may have died."

As he spoke, he looked at the rearview mirror inside the car. What was reflected in the mirror was the mountain behind the car...
