The so-called Shou is the most powerful kind of walking corpse, which can come and go without a trace and kill people invisibly.
Once formed, it will take all the resources around it as its own, especially by sucking up local water to nourish its yin qi.
As long as there is a drought in a place, there must be a severe drought, so it is called a drought. In the old society, if there is no rain for three months, one must ask the Dragon King for rain, and the other is to drive a dry bone pile - find the drought, break the bones, and the water will come back.
I immediately remembered - I read the news a few days ago and saw that there was a local drought, so it was a drought?
Du Hengzhi told me that the Tianshi Mansion also sent some Feng Shui gentlemen, but they couldn't find the dry nest. The situation was getting worse day by day, and it seemed that they could only find it through the method of hope. This matter is of great importance, so the best person I can think of is me.
Cheng Xinghe sneered when he heard it: "No wonder Mr. Du is willing to offer such good conditions. It's really a tricky job, and it's not much different from defusing bombs."
Du Hengzhi brought a high cultivation of an upper class person, and she didn't care about it. A pair of big eyes only stared at me, and the light in her eyes was flowing, which was very exciting: "Of course, things that are not easy to do, naturally let those who have the ability do it."
Drought is such a fierce thing, and the evil spirit must be very large. According to my current ability to look forward to it, it should not be difficult to find Drought. If I find Drought, it will save the natural disaster.
More importantly, I have less and less time. I have to find Cripple Jiang. I haven't found the Heavenly Master Mansion yet. It is the only clue to find Cripple Jiang.
Although this was a difficult task, the benefits were not small. Overall, it was worth it, so I nodded and agreed.
Du Hengzhi was not surprised at all, as if she had known that I would agree, and gave me a prepared address: "I have already greeted the local residents. After you go, they will help you."
Cheng Xinghe frowned when he saw that I agreed, but he also wanted to find Cripple Jiang, so he didn't stop him, looking like a gentleman who sacrificed his life to accompany him: "I have the most important thing to ask."
Du Hengzhi nodded: "You say."
"Are you reimbursing for the round-trip travel expenses and food and lodging?"
Du Hengzhi smiled: "Of course, in addition to that, there is also a big thank you."
Cheng Xinghe's face was a little better now, saying that you are sincere. Then he bumped into me with his shoulders, whispering that the reputation of Tianshi Mansion is here, and he is not afraid that they will default on their debts.
At this moment, a cough suddenly rang out from the door.
The old man's voice.
This time I still remembered - the first rule the old man set for me was not to be in the yin and yang group.
And Tianshi Mansion is the highest-end yin and yang group.
Du Hengzhi heard the cough and looked at the room curiously. "Is there anyone else in your family?"
"My third uncle is a little demented."
I felt guilty for a while - I broke the third rule first, then the first rule, and then married a famous Bai Fumei like Du Hengzhi, and the rules would be broken.
However, this was purely a fantasy. How could Du Hengzhi have a crush on me?
I didn't know it at the time, but it was another regrettable decision.
When Du Hengzhi left, I went to see the address. In fact, it's not far from us, so I said to the old man, "Third uncle and grandpa, I will go out these days, and I will ask Teacher Gao to take care of you later. Don't run around and jump around - don't forget the pain when the scar heals."
The old man put one hand on the back of Xiaobai's foot and squinted his eyes while singing, "Let's go, let's go, people always have to learn to grow up by themselves, let's go, let's go, life will inevitably experience hardships and struggles..."
How come you can still sing pop songs? And how did you know I was going to struggle?
Cheng Xinghe's mouth was never idle, and he also sang to me: "Let's go, let's go, find a home for your heart..."
You two can make your debut together.
I instructed Xiaobai Foot again to take care of the old man. Xiaobai Foot meowed proudly and swung its claws as if to reassure me.
Cheng Xinghe said that I'm afraid there's something wrong with my brain, and I can still entrust people to cats.
How do you know the ability of Xiaobai Foot?
I asked Cheng Xinghe to take me there in his hearse, and the oil money would be reimbursed by Tianshi Mansion.
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Cheng Xinghe was very happy and specially filled up the oil.
That place is called Shaping Town, and it takes two or three hours to get on the expressway from us.
Watermelons are produced in Shaping Town. In summer, the watermelons sold in the streets and alleys all have the same slogan: "Shaping Town's watermelons are ripe and sweet, and the sand flesh is fine!"
The locals are also melon farmers who grow melons as a profession, so in the event of a drought, it can be said that the people are struggling to survive and suffer heavy losses.
Sure enough, from the highway, it could be seen that there were continuous melons here, but the melons and vines were all dry, and the ground was cracked into turtle shells. Those melons were also crooked melons, and they were all scowling farmers.
Cheng Xinghe said while watching, no wonder this year's watermelons are so expensive.
When they arrived at the place, they only felt waves of heat, and the sight in front of them was a little curved. The roasted person felt uncomfortable all over, just like in Turpan.
Get out of the car and take a look. Du Hengzhi gave the address to a large courtyard. A few shirtless farmers were fanning with fans with bitter faces. When they looked up, they saw our faces were suspicious. Obviously, few outsiders came here.
I told them the purpose of my visit, and those people became excited in an instant and started to tell each other: "Here comes the gentleman who sees things again!"
With this cry, many people surged out and surrounded us. An old man who looked like the main thing came out, claiming to be the local village chief, and quickly said, "Please come in, we can count on you!"
Saying that, he made us a pot of hot tea.
Drinking hot tea this day is like being punished. Helpless and really thirsty, I reluctantly took a sip, but I almost didn't spit it out - it's salty, bitter and astringent, what kind of tea is this?
The village chief was a little sorry, saying that now that the wells and reservoirs are dry, there is only so much water in stock, so we can only drink this. Let's not dislike it, and it is soaked in local grass roots, which is a fire.
Even this made the people outside swallow their saliva - these were all for entertaining guests, and it seemed that they were usually reluctant to drink too much of this.
There was no air conditioner inside, and the electric fan was also blowing hot air, which was similar to a sauna. When Cheng Xinghe saw it, his tongue stuck out, saying that he had known he would not come - this season, life is given by air conditioners.
The village head was very embarrassed to say that he must arrange an air-conditioned room for us. Please don't dislike it and help us. Originally, there were few people, but no more dead people could be killed.
Hearing this, Cheng Xinghe and I were stunned for a moment, and we also said in unison: "Are there still dead people here?"
The village chief nodded again and again, but it was a little inexplicable: "Two gentlemen, don't you know?"
Du Hengzhi didn't say anything!
I suddenly had an ominous premonition, so I asked the village chief to talk about it in detail.
Only then did the village chief tell us that since the drought broke out, more than a dozen people had died in the area.
In the beginning, an old man surnamed Liu died. He was also a melon farmer. There were melon sheds in the melon fields to prevent people from stealing melons during the harvest season.
The next day, his daughter-in-law went to the melon field to bring him food, and he saw that the old man was not moving. At first glance, he was dead - the corpse was dry, like a dried corpse that had been drying in the desert for several days.
This night's kung fu, people can't look like this even if they die!
This scared his daughter-in-law and almost crawled back home. Of course, the family believed that the old man was harmed by someone, but after such an inspection, it was found that the old man had no trauma at all. No one knew how the old man died.
While everyone was looking at each other, another widow died, just like an old man - dry and unscathed.
If you are old, say, don't make a fuss, right?
Only then could one absorb all one's essence without leaving any trauma.
This caused a lot of panic, and no one dared to go out. This is not just to invite people to see if there is something wrong with Feng Shui, but the gentleman who came looked bad and said that they were afraid that they could not deal with it.
After being dragged down like this, many people died one after another in the local area. At first, one a week, then one every three days, and now, almost one a day.
If this went on, wouldn't all the people in this village die?
There are already many timid people who have moved away, but there are still some who are reluctant to leave their homes and have nowhere else to go, so they just stare blankly and wait for someone to come to their rescue.
When I said why Du Hengzhi didn't come, I knew that the drought here was caused by the drought. I thought she figured it out, and she knew that people were dead here.
It's already powerful - being able to eat so many people in a short time is of course even more difficult to deal with.
Du Hengzhi said that he saw that I had the ability, so he pushed me into the fire pit, right?
After Cheng Xinghe finished listening, he got up from his chair like a spring, and pulled me out: "I knew that Du Hengzhi was a little fox. I saw that she was willing to offer such good conditions, but I thought she had a crush on you.
When the village chief saw it, his hands trembled: "Hey, you, why are you leaving?"
Cheng Xinghe waved his hand: "We are the same as those gentlemen, we don't have this ability."
The onlookers were quite excited, but when they heard this, they all showed disappointed expressions.
At this time, an old lady suddenly knelt in front of us and said, "Two gentlemen, I beg you, please save the people of our village! So many people have already left, and if you leave again, I am afraid that no sir will dare to care about our village!"
That old lady is about the same age as my third uncle. We can't afford to kneel down and worship such a long-lived person.
Moreover, the ground was scalding hot!
So I quickly helped the old lady up. The old lady looked thin, but because she had been farming all year round, she couldn't afford it. She cried and said, "I'm old bones, and I'm not afraid of death, but there are still many children in the village! We don't have the money to move out!"
It turned out that there were a lot of left-behind children in this village. They were all dressed in tattered clothes and tanned. They all stared at us with big eyes. Obviously, they didn't know what terrible things had happened in the local area, but they were very curious about everything.
My heart skipped a beat - yeah, if this matter is not resolved quickly, these children are also in danger.
Cheng Xinghe didn't let himself look there, he just pulled me, and I grabbed him backhand: "You don't want to find Cripple Jiang?"
Cheng Xinghe pouted: "If you care about this, can you go back and talk about it? Return Lame Jiang."
Having said that, he sat on the threshold, sighed, and said to himself, "What have I done, with a party like you, where is the thunder and where is it..."
As a result, the threshold burned his butt and bounced him up again.
I felt a little happy and agreed to go back and treat him to popsicles.
He glared at me, took a long time from his arms, took out a handful of snacks and distributed them to the children.
Those children had never seen such a fancy snack before, and they all became excited and began to fight for it. Cheng Xinghe looked fierce and asked them to be honest, but his eyes were very gentle.
I had planned to go to a higher place to take a look at the geomancy here, but at this time, a person said coldly, "Now that I know Mr. Qiu, when you hurt people earlier, why didn't you think of this retribution today?"
