The county magistrate of Goose City has changed countless times, but the four major families remain the same, their positions as stable as Mount Tai.
They still call the shots in Goose City.
But this new county magistrate is not only young, but also holds real power. He can wipe out hundreds of bandits, so how weak can he be?
If the two families were to marry, wouldn't the Ren family be able to return to Goose City instead of being confined to Ren Family Town?
The more Mr. Ren thought about it, the more feasible the idea seemed.
Anyway, my daughter Ren Tingting is grown up and will eventually marry someone else.
As for his nephew Awei, he's a complete idiot and utterly useless.
If Ren Tingting is married off to Awei, then the Ren family will be completely ruined.
She glanced at Shen Hao, then at her daughter Tingting.
At that moment, they even thought of names for their child.
If the county magistrate and Tingting had a child who would take the surname Ren, thus continuing the Ren family line, that would be perfect.
In his generation, there were no sons, and Ren Tingting was an only daughter. The Ren family was facing the crisis of having no male heir, so he even considered finding a son-in-law to live with them.
Thinking of this, Master Ren decided to test Shen Hao's words.
Qiu Sheng, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but ask, "Master, what exactly is this ritual burial?"
Uncle Nine explained, "The so-called 'legal burial' is burial upright, isn't that right, Master Ren?"
Master Ren then came to his senses and nodded, saying, "Yes, that feng shui master said back then:"
"If ancestors are buried upright, their descendants will surely prosper."
Uncle Nine raised an eyebrow and deliberately asked, "So, is it effective?"
Clearly, he had already realized there was a problem.
Mr. Ren sighed and said, "Over the past twenty years, our Ren family's business has been getting worse and worse."
They've already been kicked out of Goose City.
I don't know why, but both of my sons died young.
Uncle Nine bluntly stated, "I think that feng shui master has a grudge against your Ren family."
"A grudge?" Master Ren asked suspiciously;
Uncle Nine nodded and said:
"I think so. Did the old man have some kind of grudge against him before he died?"
After hesitating for a moment, Mr. Ren explained, "This land originally belonged to a feng shui master, but my father bought it after finding out about it."
Uncle Nine said with a hint of sarcasm, "Was it bribery or coercion?"
Mr. Ren gave an awkward smile and remained silent.
Silence means you guessed correctly.
"I could tell at a glance that he had threatened you, otherwise he would never have harmed you by covering the 'dragonfly skimming water' hole with cement."
Shen Hao listened with great curiosity, as he had never been exposed to knowledge about feng shui and ghost-catching before, and he wanted to learn more.
53. Is there a reward for capturing a female ghost?
"Precisely because it is not covered by snowflakes, this 'dragonfly skimming the water' spot has become a fatal flaw."
The top was sealed with cement, so the head of the coffin couldn't touch water, and therefore, how could it get wet?
Fortunately, the other party had a conscience and allowed you to have your coffin exhumed and reburied twenty years later.
"They'll ruin your life for half a lifetime, but not your whole life; they'll ruin your generation, but not your eighteenth generation."
After Uncle Jiu finished speaking, Master Ren's face turned somewhat pale.
Shen Hao, who was standing to the side, also became curious about the feng shui and wanted to know what would happen to the ashes in the future.
So he couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Jiu, if the body is cremated, what burial site is best for future generations?"
Uncle Nine was stumped by the question, but he still explained, "The bones turned to ashes and returned to dust, and everything was no longer connected."
We cannot fail to bless future generations.
"The coffin has been found."
Just then, a farmhand said;
Uncle Nine and Master Ren and the others also rushed forward to check.
In the mound of yellow earth, there was a dark purple pear wood coffin.
Uncle Nine calculated with his fingers and checked the time.
He said, "It's noon now, bring up Old Master Ren's coffin."
"Okay, Taoist priest."
Several people tied the coffin with ropes, supported it with a frame and a pulley, and slowly hoisted it up.
After the coffin was laid flat, Uncle Nine said calmly, "Loosen the ropes, pull up the nails."
After saying that, he turned to Shen Hao's maid and servant and said, "Everyone, today is the day when Ren Gong's might is seen again."
Anyone aged 36, 22, 35, or 48 who is born in the Year of the Rooster or the Year of the Ox should turn away and avoid the area.
"Open the coffin!"
Just as the farmhands were about to open the coffin, countless crows flew out from the surrounding woods, cawing loudly.
Seeing this, Uncle Nine frowned deeply.
He thought to himself: "The yin energy is so heavy."
When the coffin was opened, wisps of black smoke billowed out.
The body reappeared.
When the full appearance of the body was seen, it showed no signs of decomposition even after twenty years.
Uncle Nine's pupils contracted, and he knew in his heart that something was wrong.
Too weird.
Mr. Ren and Ren Tingting immediately knelt in front of the coffin.
"Father, I am so sorry to have troubled you like this; I am truly an unfilial son."
After saying that, he immediately stood up and asked Uncle Nine, "Uncle Nine, is this tomb still usable?"
Uncle Nine shook his head and said, "The Qing court would dip the water in one spot at a time, and they would never dip it in the same spot twice."
This "dragonfly skimming water" technique is obsolete and useless.
Master Ren looked disappointed and hurriedly asked, "Then what can we do? Without a good feng shui location, is my Ren family doomed?"
Shen Hao, standing nearby, was speechless. Relying on a corpse to bless the family, they had no ambition whatsoever.
Shen Hao knew that this Old Master Ren would definitely turn into a zombie.
Not only will they not help the Ren family, they will also destroy them.
Uncle Nine said solemnly, "I propose we cremate them on the spot."
Master Ren shook his head and firmly disagreed.
“My late father was most afraid of fire. I can’t do that. Cremation would leave no trace of his body. I absolutely disagree.”
Shen Hao said, "A corpse that hasn't decomposed in 20 years is definitely problematic; cremation is better."
Master Ren said, "Magistrate, this is my family's private matter, so I hope you will not interfere."
One sentence left Shen Hao speechless for a long time.
You reap what you sow.
According to Shen Hao's estimation, the Ren family is no good either.
Old Master Ren seized the feng shui master's precious burial site through coercion and bribery.
The old man became a zombie after his death, which could only be achieved by harboring resentment.
Old Master Ren was not a good person to begin with, and the fact that such a bad person could die with resentment shows that Old Master Ren was no good either.
Thinking of this, Shen Hao fell silent.
I love it to death.
Uncle Nine, standing to the side, had already begun to suspect that Old Master Ren was about to turn into a zombie.
So he said, "Master Ren, why don't you transport the coffin to my mortuary?"
I am looking for another burial site for Old Master Ren.
Master Ren nodded and said, "Then thank you very much, Uncle Jiu."
Immediately, Master Ren waved to Shen Hao, got into the bamboo chair, and left.
