Chapter 16

Seeing such a scene, Lin Feng's expression could not help but change; he had not expected that the Third Young Master of the Wang family would be in such a situation.

However, the person had already been killed, and the situation had reached a point where there was no room for recovery.

Lin Feng immediately went to the female lead actress, but unfortunately, by this time, the other party had been tortured beyond recognition, and after seeing Lin Feng's current Play Ghost appearance, she completely lost all signs of life.

"Sigh~"

Lin Feng stepped forward to test her breath, then looked at the unrecognizable corpse, and sighed helplessly in his heart.

He really hadn't expected this to be the result; originally, he had only thought it was a simple act of saving someone.

"Forget it, better leave early."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng casually pulled over a quilt to wrap the female lead actress's corpse, and then took away the human-skin tattoo that had been suppressed by the Embroidery Ghost.

Then, a pool of corpse water began to surge from under his feet, submerging and taking away the corpses of the Third Young Master of the Wang family and his subordinate.

Finally, Lin Feng knocked over all the oil lamps in the cellar and the room. Having the relevant experience from that corpse from the Ghost Suppression Division, Lin Feng knew very well how to eliminate the traces he had left behind.

After doing all this, Lin Feng left quietly, then jumped onto the roof to observe the situation.

"Crackling."

The fire in the backyard of Yihong Pavilion grew larger, and the crimson tongues of fire quickly ignited the wooden building. Seeing this, Lin Feng flew away toward the outside of the city.

"Fire! Fire!"

Behind him, the people who discovered the fire began to shout loudly.

Quietly returning to the graveyard, Lin Feng buried the opera singer's corpse next to the Play Ghost's grave mound.

There was nothing to say about the corpse's experiences and harvest; from the moment a child of a poor family was born, that unfortunate life was destined.

It was just that Lin Feng also discovered the abnormality of the Third Young Master of the Wang family from the life record of the corpse.

"The physical body accommodates a ghost, and eventually it will also affect the spirit, gradually losing humanity and becoming a ghost!"

"So later, that guy acted more and more crazily, hoping to regain his humanity through various stimuli..."

Lin Feng let the Tou Gui release that human-skin tattoo; it seemed that without a living person as sustenance, this ghost residing on the tattoo also fell silent again.

"But it's just right to strengthen the Xi Gui's strength!"

In this battle, the role played by the Tou Gui was clearly stronger than that of the Xi Gui. If it weren't for the Tou Gui's assistance, it really wouldn't have been so easy to take down this ghost relying solely on the Xi Gui's abilities.

Peach wood nails, incense sticks, and copper coins—Lin Feng was not lacking in these things; after all, he had already prepared these things twice.

The sacrificial ritual began, and the human skin, which had been pinned to the ground by peach wood nails, gradually vanished on the spot as the incense burned slowly.

At the same time, an evil ghost face appeared on the Xi Gui's body again, and its strength was also evaluated as a Great Ghost by the "Corpse-Planting and Ghost-Raising Scripture."

With its strength improved again, Lin Feng felt a little happier in his heart.

This failed rescue attempt made him feel that it was meaningless; if it weren't for the small harvest, it would have been purely looking for trouble for himself.

"It's better to do fewer stupid things like this in the future; living one's own life peacefully is the right thing to do."

Finally, Lin Feng retracted the two ghosts by his side, then returned to the wooden house to prepare for rest.

Early the next morning, Lin Feng heard the "Dang~ Dang~ Dang~" sound of the funeral bell ringing again.

"Woof woof!"

The little black dog guarding under Lin Feng's short couch immediately pricked up its ears and barked alertly. No, yesterday Lin Feng had given it the name Lucky Wealth.

"Someone died again?"

Lin Feng rolled over and sat up from the short couch, and then understood what had happened.

This was already a common occurrence in the graveyard, and he didn't really pay much attention to it.

After opening the door, Lin Feng began to fetch water to wash up. Old Quezi was in the kitchen burning wood to boil porridge; the abnormality outside did not seem to have caused much impact on them.

"Woo-woo."

While eating, Lucky Wealth didn't know where it had dragged a bone from, but Lin Feng suspected it might be human, so he threw it far away from the small courtyard under Lucky Wealth's longing gaze.

"In the future, you are not allowed to run out of the courtyard at will, and even less allowed to run around the grave mounds!"

Lin Feng tapped Lucky Wealth on the head twice, then warned it sternly.

"Woof woof!!"

Lucky Wealth wagged its tail as if it understood; as for whether it had listened, only it knew.

After eating his fill, Lin Feng hadn't rested for long before the two bailiffs, Zhang Dazhuang and Li Erniu, drove a donkey cart over.

"Brother Lin, it wasn't peaceful last night; I'm afraid there will be plenty to do today!"

Li Erniu pointed to the corpses covered by black cloth on the donkey cart and said to Lin Feng.

"Mm, I know."

Lin Feng nodded and then began to work. A total of three corpses were delivered on the donkey cart, and Lin Feng felt the presence of ghosts on these three.

The three corpses had the same method of death; all their bodies were twisted into exaggerated shapes, and some joints were even directly reversed.

Because there were many corpses delivered at once, this time Old Quezi also carried a hoe to help dig pits.

However, his legs and feet were not agile, and after Lin Feng had dug two pits, he hadn't even finished digging one.

"Sigh, this person is really not what they used to be, not as good as you young and strong ones."

Old Quezi leaned on his hoe and sighed, his aged face feeling somewhat numb.

"Alright, you go and rest; leave this to me!"

Lin Feng shook his head and threw a corpse directly into a pit, and immediately, this corpse began to struggle in the pit.

But the next moment, Lin Feng's hoe struck down directly, and the entire corpse suddenly became obedient. Soon, the grave soil was filled in, and the grave mound was formed.

The Corpse-Planting and Ghost-Raising Scripture flipped, and the life of the corpse appeared before Lin Feng's eyes.

The previous content looked like an ordinary life with no abnormalities, but the final memories made Lin Feng alert.

The owner of the corpse, who had already gone to sleep last night, was awakened by a sound. When he opened the door to check the situation, he saw a terrifying scene.

One by one, strange wooden figures were continuously asking the same question to the people they had dragged out.

"Where did the Third Young Lady of the Chen family's corpse go?"

As the cold wind blew at night, the owner of the corpse just wanted to escape, but found that his body gradually became abnormally stiff, and finally began to walk toward those wooden figures uncontrollably.

Finally, in a daze, he said some vague information, and then completely lost consciousness.

"..."

After reading this content, Lin Feng's expression suddenly changed. When he checked the life of the Third Young Lady of the Chen family at the time, he had felt that something was wrong.

He didn't expect that there was someone laying out a plan behind this, and now the person laying out the plan had clearly discovered that there was a problem, so they began to use this method to find the corpse.

Without even looking at the harvest in detail, Lin Feng continued to bury the other two corpses. Since they were all the same method of death, the cause of death was naturally the same.

The only difference was that the questions asked by those wooden figures were different; some asked who had participated in the funeral that day, and who had come into contact with the corpse.

After burying these three corpses, Lin Feng felt an inexplicable sense of urgency. The other party cared so much about Chen Xiuniang's corpse, which was enough to show the importance of this corpse to them.

And the fact that the other party was searching by killing people one by one and asking questions meant that it definitely wouldn't take long for them to find him!

"Heh, I didn't expect that helping people bury corpses could also lead to problems!"

Because of last night's encounter, Lin Feng had originally planned to live a quiet life recently, but he didn't expect that this trouble would find its way to his door.

"I'm afraid tonight won't be peaceful. The other party can control so many wooden figures; their strength is definitely not simple. It's very likely they are a Grandmaster expert or even a True Person."

"With my current strength, escaping might not be a problem, but there are too many troubles..."

Lin Feng began to think carefully. Since it concerned his own life, he dared not be careless.
