"Master Ren, this matter is truly troublesome. If it isn't explained clearly, it could very well lead to serious trouble.
And it concerns your family, Master Ren, so..."
Upon hearing this, Master Ren glanced at Ren Tingting beside him before finally nodding and saying,
"Fine! All of you, withdraw for now!"
The servants around them all turned and left upon hearing this. Only Ren Tingting and Awei remained.
"All right, Uncle Jiu. You can speak now, can't you?"
Uncle Jiu nodded and said, "Master Ren, although I don't know how this Dragonfly Water Point Grave Site came to be, the person who arranged your father's grave had no good intentions.
A dragonfly touching water must actually touch water to count as dragonfly touching water. But your grave has been sealed over with cement, unable to touch even a drop of water. This grave site has been completely ruined."
The moment these words were spoken, Master Ren's expression became extremely unpleasant. He then said coldly,
"Hmph! That fellow really was up to something. I was wondering how he could possibly have kindly arranged my Old Man's burial back then.
So this was where he had been plotting against the Ren family. No wonder our family business has been getting worse and worse these past years."
After hearing this, Zhang Chulan suddenly spoke up from the side.
"Master Ren, you're quite bold. This Dragonfly Water Point Grave Site was probably seized from that feng shui master, wasn't it?
You stole something from him, yet you dared to have the very feng shui master you robbed build the grave for you. You truly have nerve.
And afterward, you didn't even ask anyone else to inspect it. You really trusted that fellow that much!
You even followed that feng shui master's instructions and are moving the grave now. Did you never consider that there might be a problem?"
Master Ren was startled by these words. He looked at the two of them and asked,
"Uncle Jiu, does my father's grave have other problems besides this?"
Uncle Jiu nodded with a grave expression.
"Master Ren, once your father's body is brought out, I advise you not to open the coffin. Cremate it on the spot!"
Master Ren immediately shook his head in objection.
"No, absolutely not, Uncle Jiu. I absolutely will not agree to that.
My Father feared fire while he was alive. I cannot have him cremated. Don't even think about it."
Zhang Chulan let out a cold laugh after hearing this.
"Heh, fine, don't cremate him. Then in a little while, we can cremate your whole family together!"
At those words, Awei immediately drew his pistol and pointed it at Zhang Chulan.
"Kid, you've got some nerve, threatening my uncle-in-law!"
Zhang Chulan's eyes flashed with electricity at the sight.
"Ah..."
Awei immediately cried out in pain. His right hand had already been burned black.
Zhang Chulan said coldly,
"Next time, don't point that thing at me. I'm afraid it might go off!"
After saying that, Zhang Chulan looked at Uncle Jiu. "Uncle Jiu, there's no need for you to keep hiding it from him.
You're afraid that if something like this happens to the Ren family, the people in town will turn against them.
But the problem is even bigger now. What's inside is a Flying Zombie.
If anything goes wrong, the entire town could become a town of the dead! If you won't say it, I will.
Master Ren, didn't you want to know why?
Your Old Man was tampered with by that feng shui master. Using this Dragonfly Water Point Grave Site, he has already been refined into a Zombie.
And for some unknown reason, he has even become a Flying Zombie capable of flying through the sky and burrowing through the earth.
Once this thing emerges, it will slaughter everything within a thousand miles, leaving neither chickens nor dogs alive.
That is why Uncle Jiu advised you to burn this Flying Zombie as quickly as possible.
But let me remind you: after digging him up, before opening the coffin, it may still be possible to burn him directly.
But once the coffin is opened, the moment that thing comes into contact with human presence—especially the direct Bloodline of you two—it will inevitably go berserk.
When that happens, even we won't be able to control what follows.
After all, this is a Flying Zombie. Unless someone at the level of a Celestial Master intervenes, killing him will be difficult.
In other words, all of you may die here!"
At these words, Ren Tingting finally could not hold herself back any longer.
She immediately retorted, "Are you after money? Stop using such alarmist nonsense here.
Zombies? I've never even heard of such a thing. Do you even know what science is?"
Zhang Chulan looked at Ren Tingting as though she were an idiot.
"Heh, I know more about science than you do.
Anything that can be explained is called science. Believe it or not, Master Ren, we only came here to give you a warning.
If you refuse to listen, we cannot guarantee your safety when things happen next.
We're only telling you this in advance! If something truly goes wrong in the end, don't blame us for failing to warn you."
Master Ren frowned after hearing this.
"This matter is none of your concern. You only need to arrange my Father's reburial properly!"
Zhang Chulan gave Master Ren a deep look.
"Uncle Jiu, let's go. Let's head over and prepare to open the coffin!"
Uncle Jiu sighed helplessly and nodded. As he walked back, he said,
"Chu Lan, why don't you try persuading him again...?"
Zhang Chulan gave a bitter smile.
"Uncle Jiu, good advice cannot save someone determined to die, and compassion cannot save one who has chosen destruction!
We've already said everything we needed to say. Besides, that Master Ren is clearly a greedy man who places great importance on wealth.
He obviously wants to settle his Old Man into a decent, or perhaps even better, grave site so his descendants can continue to prosper.
So no matter how much we try to persuade him, it will be useless. It's better not to interfere from here on."
Hearing this, Uncle Jiu merely sighed and nodded gently.
"Alas! So be it. You're right."
Zhang Chulan smiled at that.
"Uncle Jiu, I understand what you're thinking. But sometimes, some people won't shed tears until they see the coffin, and won't turn back until they hit the wall!
We've said more than enough. Any more, and we'll make enemies of them.
You know, Uncle Jiu, I used to be pretending all along. My grandfather once told me that we gifted people must not be too kind, or others will isolate and suppress us.
If we're too weak, others will bully us. Only by being about the same as them can we avoid trouble.
So I've been pretending all these years, terrified that something might happen.
Though I've kept it up for so many years, I've also come to understand something. People don't need to be overly concerned with every little thing. Wouldn't it be better to live with a clearer heart?
Come on, Uncle Jiu. If we can save them later, we'll save them. If we can't, then so be it. After all, they chose this path themselves. We can't interfere, can we?"
Very soon, at Uncle Jiu's command, the coffin was brought out.
At this point, Master Ren and his group also came over.
"Master Ren, are you truly going to open the coffin?"
Master Ren gave Uncle Jiu a somewhat displeased look.
"Open it. I want to see my Father!"
Several people nearby immediately stepped forward and began pulling out the coffin nails. Before long, the coffin was completely opened.
The moment the coffin opened, a stream of black qi shot into the sky.
The previously clear sky immediately began to gather dark clouds once more.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhen's face instantly darkened.
"Don't push your luck. Get lost!!!"
At Jiang Zhen's shout, the gathering dark clouds instantly dispersed. Everyone stared at Jiang Zhen in shock.
Jiang Zhen said nothing. He merely walked over.
Master Ren also moved closer. Just as he leaned in, took one look at his Old Man, and was about to speak—
Old Master Ren suddenly opened his eyes, and the nails on both hands instantly grew long.
He seized Master Ren in one grab.
"Ah..."
The ordinary people who saw this screamed in terror and turned to run, no longer caring about anything. Ren Tingting let out a terrified cry and fainted.
