On the side, the middle-aged man also had red eyes.
He choked up and said, “Actually, we also know that we shouldn’t do this sort of thing, it’s superstition… but we really had no other choice. My youngest son is already six and a half years old, and the other kids his age are starting school, but he still can’t talk or walk… We’ve thought of every possible solution and visited every hospital we can think of!”
Someone from the village stepped forward to help speak up.
Although the female ghost was fat, she had a kind heart. Hearing this, she stepped forward and whispered, “Why don’t… you give them my remains? I was greedy when I was alive, so I grew too fat, and nobody wanted me. But if I could have a Yin marriage after death, and marry a good husband, it would be a good thing!”
Xu Yang was speechless.
You’re a ghost, why are you following human superstitions?
Yes!
It’s just feudal superstition!
Yin marriage is groundless. Real experts who “see things” and “break things” would never use this kind of technique, mainly because it doesn’t work.
After pondering for a moment.
Xu Yang said, “Forget it forget it… Just bringyour son to my shop tomorrow, and I’ll take a look at him. This Yin marriage is just nonsense, and that so- called Master Lin is just a scammer.”
“You?”
The middle-aged couple, their eyes full of hope, asked cautiously, “Young man, can you also see things?”
After asking this question, the middle-aged man regretted it!
Isn’t that obvious?
He can grab a ghost’s head like a soccer ball and smash all the “paper people” with a hammer. How can he be an ordinary person?
Xu Yang left them an address.
The rest of the matter was up to Officer Wang and the others.
Helping these six ghosts find their remains and return them to their original place would give them, and their families, closure. Once their wishes were fulfilled, they could be transcended, earning Xu Yang some merit.
In addition, the money the “Master Lin” gang swindled needed to be recovered.
As for how much could be recovered, it would depend on luck.
After saying goodbye to Officer Wang, Xu Yang said, “All right, Officer Wang, you go ahead and get busy, I’ll head back first.”
“Should I have Xiao Zhang take you back?”
“No need, you guys still have cases to deal with, just let someone from the village take me back.”
Xu Yang looked at the young man who had just been beaten up, and asked, “Do you have a car?”
The young man stammered, not daring to look directly at Xu Yang, “I do…I do…”
Li Si also ran over panting, “Master, we’re going back first.”
The three ghosts’ eyes changed as they looked at Xu Yang.
Before coming here, they only knew that Xu Yang was powerful and was the “Master” of the Yue family’s second young lady, but they never thought… he was the legendary “Northwest Hammer King,” the renowned Iron Hammer Daoist who had recently become famous and shaken the ghost world of Xi Xia!
How could these three ghosts dare to stay any longer?
They transformed in an instant, turning into a wisp of Yin wind and quickly arrived at the “spirit” car that Xu Yang had given them.
As the three ghosts got into the car, they saw the white Land Rover perform a drifting U-turn on the spot, then whizzed forward and disappeared at the crossroads of the country road in an instant…
When the car reappeared, it was already in a small town shrouded in darkness.
The architectural style of the town was very ancient. It seemed that it hadn’t been electrified yet. Every household had a large red lantern hanging at the door… Upon closer inspection, it wasn’t a lantern, but a “human head lamp” with a red candle in its mouth.
It was late at night, but the streets were bustling.
This was the Ghost Market!
The “market” of the Ghost Market opened twice a month, on the first and fifteenth days of each month. These were the major market days… However, in reality, the Ghost Market was lively every day. After all, there were countless Yin spirits and ghostly creatures in Xi Xia and even the entire Northwest, and not all of them liked to haunt the human world!
Many of them settled in the Ghost Market.
On the street, various cries of selling were endless, with various Yin spirits, malevolent beings, and ghostly creatures wandering the streets.
Some had tongues three feet long, probably hanging ghosts.
Others had blood flowing from their seven orifices, their faces black and green, most likely poisoned to death when they were alive.
There were also headless ghosts, bodyless ghosts, and so on.
“Li Si, you’re back? I heard you went to serve the second Master? How was it? Did you get any benefits?”
Li Si laughed, “Not much, just that the Master gave me a car…Oh, by the way…”
He lowered his voice, “You guys probably don’t know, the second Master is actually the Iron Hammer Daoist… ”
“What?”
“Iron Hammer Daoist?”
“My God…”
As for all this, Xu Yang naturally knew nothing.
At this moment, he was already on his way back.
The young man with bruises on his face was driving a BYD Song. He was afraid that Xu Yang wouldn’t be comfortable, so as soon as they got in the car, he said “Master, please bear with me. We folks from the countryside don’t have better conditions and can only afford this kind of broken car.”
Xu Yang: “…”
Xu Yang looked at the interior.
He thought to himself that this BYD Song was the latest 2022 hybrid version, more than 20,000 dollars more expensive than his own Song, and this was still considered a broken car?
So he said, “I support domestic cars too, I also drive a Song.”
“Really?”
The relationship between the two of them suddenly became much closer.
However, when the young man glanced at the rearview mirror and saw the six ghosts squeezed in the back seat, he dared not say anything else. He took Xu Yang to the funeral shop, and when Xu Yang took out too dollars for gas money, he didn’t want to take it, so Xu Yang could only take out two packs of Chinese cigarettes and give them to him, saying, “Take these two packs of cigarettes to smoke. By the way, I see your brow is dim and lacks luster, like a financial loss… So, since we’re fated, you can come over tomorrow with Cao family’s little son, and I’ll help you resolve it.”
Opening the funeral shop door, Xu Yang settled the six ghosts inside and said, “Stay here and don’t run around. Once the police find your remains, I’ll take you back…”
With that,
He put several Daoist talismans on the door, ensuring they couldn’t escape even if they wanted to.
After all, these were six ghosts.
If they were all transcended, at least 600 merit points could be gained.
A louse, no matter how small, is still meat, right?
Upon returning to the villa,
Yun Mengxi approached him resentfully and said, “Xu Yang, where’s the coffin you said you’d make for me?”
“These days, I haven’t slept well without a coffin…”
“I’ve been too busy these days and forgot to order a coffin for you… Let’s do this, tomorrow, I’ll find Elder Wang, who used to run a longevity shop and is a professional… Oh, let’s go to your room, so you can tell me any requirements you have for the coffin!”
“Ah… you… why are you taking off my clothes?”
“To sleep with you!”
