Grave Moving Brigade - Chapter 44 PT2

Chapter 44 PT2 – Sifang Mountain

But the lines wrapped by the shirt are very smooth and beautiful. Chen Ling wondered if there are clearly defined abdominal muscles on the abdomen opposite the lower back.

Sun Zhi walked and cried all the way. He wanted to beg for mercy but didn’t dare to. The expression on his face was terribly distorted.

He followed Chen Ling and others to the parking space next to him, where a high-end black sedan was parked. It was just enough for four people to sit, but there was no room for Sun Zhi.

It was really disgusting to look at his face with snot and tears all over it. No one cared whether he was willing or not. Wu Weiwei found an angle that the camera couldn’t capture and pushed him into the trunk.

The trunk was clean and tidy, with a soft cushion. He didn’t feel uncomfortable curled up in it, but he felt humiliated in his heart.

Before he could even howl, the trunk lid was slammed shut by gravity, leaving only darkness in front of him.

Several people got into the car one after another. Jiang Yu drove the car while Chen Ling sat in the passenger seat, holding the macaw in his arms that dared not say a word in front of the ancestor.

Jiang Yu started the car and looked at the road ahead. “Where are we going?”

Chen Ling held the back of the seat and turned to look behind him: “Li Hongyu, did you drive here today?”

“Yes.” Li Hongyu glanced at the back of Jiang Yu’s head, and his tone unconsciously carried a hint of respect, “Mr. Jiang, can you take me back to the breeding base? I have something that needs to be given to Mr. Chen, and it’s still in my car.”

Jiang Yu: “Yeah.”

Chen Ling frowned: “What is it?”

“A ceramic jar with newly found remains inside.” Without waiting for the young man to continue asking questions, Li Hongyu explained, “Last night, on my way to the Sun family, I received a call from my senior brother saying that a female skeleton was found at the foot of Sifang Mountain. There’s nothing strange about this, and the Special Investigation Department shouldn’t have been dispatched. But the owner of the land kept saying that he saw a woman in white wandering on the roadside.”

Chen Ling listened carefully: “A ghost who died on the road?”

Li Hongyu shook his head and said, “It shouldn’t be. We checked carefully after arriving and found no ghosts or resentment. My senior brother said that maybe the owner made a mistake or mistook a living person for a ghost. I think so too.”

Wu Weiwei asked, “Then why did you bring the urn over here? For us to bury it?”

Li Hongyu: “According to preliminary judgment, the skeleton had been buried in the soil for at least two years without any identification, and during these two years, the public security organs had not received any reports from the family members that their daughter or wife was missing.”

Chen Ling: “Have the bones been sent for examination?”

“We sent them for examination overnight. It was not poisoning, and there were no signs of use of any sharp weapons on the bones. We cannot determine whether she was murdered or died of natural causes. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility of death from illness.” Li Hongyu said, “We have tried to summon her soul, but it was useless. The deceased should have been reincarnated.”

Chen Ling was silent for a moment, then said, “Then why did you think of our Yuhe Mountain?”

A subtle embarrassment flashed across Li Hongyu’s face, and his voice dropped a few degrees. “After the skeleton was exposed, the family could not be found. To show respect, it must be buried as soon as possible, so as to let the deceased rest in peace underground. But, you also know the prices of other cemeteries. Our special dispatch department has limited funds, and the finance department cannot approve it.”

Is the Special Investigation Department so miserable? Chen Ling asked, “If you had discovered something similar before, how would you have solved it?”

“Before, a cemetery was willing to do good deeds and sold us graves at low prices. But in the past two years, the price of graves has become more and more outrageous…”

Chen Ling: “…”

After all, it all comes down to the fact that Yuhe mountain has a bad geographical location, a bad environment, and a cheap price.

Chen Ling pondered for a moment and said, “It can be buried in Yuhe Mountain. I won’t charge a high price, but only this time.” He paused and said with a bit of grievance, “We also need to make money. Look at this big family. Every day when we wake up, we have to open our mouths to eat and spend money. It’s not easy for us either.”

Li Hongyu: “Thank you.”

Then he pointed at the backpack Wu Weiwei placed on his lap and said, “I know there’s a weasel in there. Is it a newly caught one? What are you going to do with it?”

“Don’t pay attention to it.” Wu Weiwei hugged the bag and turned sideways to face the car door. “This is the new mascot of our Yuhe Mountain…”

The parrot, who was afraid to speak because of Jiang Yu’s aura, could no longer hold back and shouted bravely, “Mascot, I am the mascot.”

Chen Ling stroked its head to comfort it, and said to Li Hongyu: “It is the guardian deity of Mr. Sun’s family. It has never done anything evil.”

Li Hongyu disagreed and said, “The weasel may have bad intentions. You are taking a risk by bringing it back.”

Chen Ling assured: “I will take good care of it.”

Li Hongyu still couldn’t understand. He had followed his master and senior brothers in the outside world for a long time and had seen many evil spirits and monsters causing great harm to people. All the victims regretted their actions and regretted that they were kind-hearted and let the wolf into the house.

“It’s up to you. Just don’t make things too messy when the time comes.” Li Hongyu said coldly, hugged his arms with both hands and stopped talking.

After about a few minutes, he suddenly remembered something and opened his eyes again.

“Mr. Chen, the owner of the land in Sifang Mountain is looking for someone to perform a ritual to exorcise the evil spirits. I gave him your phone number.”

This can be regarded as introducing business to Yuhe Mountain.

“Does your Special Investigation Department not accept small orders like this?”

“We do, but the man refused to let us do the job.” Li Hongyu pursed his lips and did not give a specific reason. He only said, “If he goes out to look for someone by himself, there is a high possibility that he will be deceived. If he calls, you should take the order.”

Even a mosquito leg is meat, as long as there is no money in the pocket. Chen Ling nodded and agreed, “I understand, thank you.”

Li Hongyu glanced at Chen Ling, who seemed to be always smiling. He nodded and stopped talking.

Arriving at the guesthouse of the breeding base, Chen Ling got out of the car first and moved the urn from Li Hongyu’s trunk.

Li Hongyu rang the Sanqing Bell and controlled Sun Zhi to climb from the trunk of Jiang Yu’s car to his own car. Then he obtained the previously written description of the crime from Wu Weiwei, whispered a greeting, and left.

Chen Ling asked Jiang Yu to wait for a moment and took Xiao Lan to the base to comfort the female parrot.

It is really cruel that the two parrots are forced to separate just after they form a pair. In order to prevent the female parrot from continuing to be depressed, Chen Ling promised Qian Qing that he would let Wu Weiwei bring Xiao Lan over every day so that the two parrots could have a date.

Qian Qing thanked him repeatedly, and then talked about the follow-up work: “You should know how precious the Hyacinth Macaw is. When the breeding pilot project in Yuhe Mountain is built, I will take two days a week to go and take a look.”

Chen Ling: “I understand.”

“I understand.” Qian Qing sighed and said, “We didn’t choose to exchange the female macaw for investment. It’s because the base is really short of funds and there is no extra money to bring in a new one. The reason why the Southwest Base agreed to foster Xiao Lan with Mr. Zhao was that they were ‘rich’. The Southwest has a natural monsoon climate, which is very conducive to the growth of tropical birds like macaws. I heard that they successfully hatched three chicks this year.”

Those who suffer from drought will die of drought, and those who suffer from floods will die of floods.

Chen Ling said, “Sister Qian, I understand. Don’t worry, I will take good care of them and keep in touch with the breeding base at all times.”

Qian Qing pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly, hesitating to speak for a while before saying: “What I did yesterday was actually wrong. Regarding the anesthesia gun incident, the emergency situation is not an excuse. My actions at the time were indeed a bit extreme.”

There was nothing wrong with using anesthesia guns to calm down escaped or out-of-control animals. Almost every base would be equipped with several anesthesia guns to deal with emergencies. But thinking back, compared with Chen Ling’s gentle approach, Qian Qing felt that he was somewhat arrogant as a human being.

“Don’t think about the past. Buy more delicious food. Parrots are easy to please and don’t hold grudges.” Chen Ling looked up at the round wall clock in Qian Qing’s office. Unconsciously, he had been in the base for more than half an hour. Then he went to the breeding room with Qian Qing and took Xiao Lan out.

Outside the base, Wu Weiwei was asking about Sifang Mountain in his information sharing group.

Sifang Mountain is located in the northwest of the north city. At the foot of the mountain there is a landscaping company that moved here from other places less than a year ago. The skeleton was found next to the planting area of ​​the landscaping company.

The passenger door was opened from the outside. Wu Weiwei looked up and saw Chen Ling sitting in with the parrot in his arms. He quickly handed the chat history on his phone to the front.

“Sifang Landscaping Company?” Chen Ling sighed, “What a coincidence. I just wanted to buy saplings and turf from them.”

Sifang Landscaping moved to their city from the neighboring city because the market scope expanded and the planting scope also expanded, so new planting areas had to be opened up.

Sifang Mountain has beautiful mountains and water, and there happened to be a large open space at the foot of the mountain. The owner of Sifang Garden bought the land. Because he liked the environment there, he moved his company there and changed the former company “Siping Garden” to the current “Sifang Garden”.

All this information was on the introduction page of the company’s website, and Chen Ling knew about it early on.

But he didn’t expect that this incident would be related to Tang Siping, the owner of Sifang Garden.

According to the news, Tang Siping found the skeleton when he was walking his dog in the evening. The dog was naughty and saw a wild vegetable it had never seen before and wanted to dig it out like crazy.

The roots of the wild vegetables were deeply embedded, and the dog went from playing around to digging seriously. No matter how hard the owner pulled, he couldn’t pull them away.

Only after the pit was dug half a meter deep was the wild vegetable finally pulled out by the roots, along with a small finger bone.

The story was somewhat dramatic, and Chen Ling read it with great interest, sliding his finger upwards at the screen.

That’s all.

That’s all the information shared.

Chen Ling handed the phone back to Wu Weiwei and said, “There isn’t anything about the female ghost in white in this.”

“Maybe it’s really like what Li Hongyu said, the owner saw it wrong, or a woman in white just happened to pass by.” Although Wu Weiwei was rude and unconvinced of Li Hongyu, he was still very confident in his abilities in his heart.

Since Li Hongyu said no, then it must be true.

Chen Ling: “Let’s wait and see if the boss will call us.”

It was the sun’s highest now, if the master went to the supermarket to buy vegetables and then came back to cook, he would be starving. Chen Ling took charge and found a restaurant to pack up the food and take it home to eat.

Zhao Xunchang hadn’t seen his little apprentice for nearly a day and a half. Seeing that he had returned safely, he took Xiao Lan with a smile and touched him twice.

Then he whispered, “That’s four orders in total. How do you feel? Are you scared?”

“Not afraid.” Chen Ling shook his head, then nodded and said, “I was afraid of the first order.”

Afraid that Jiang Yu would hear, he covered his mouth and whispered to his master: “The ancestor is too powerful. Even the Sanqing Bells have no reaction to him. He is completely different from the ghosts I encountered before.”

Ever since he met Zhao Xunchang and got the Sanqing Bell, whenever ghosts approach, the Sanqing Bell either vibrates or rings automatically.

The ancestor, Jiang Yu was the only exception.

His ancestor is worthy of being his ancestor, he is good-looking, has long legs, is rich, and is an encyclopedia that knows everything.

Thinking of this, Chen Ling couldn’t hold back and was eager to express his gratitude to Jiang Yu for his recent help and advice. After dinner, he first briefly introduced the new member, the Weasel to Zhao Xunchang, then took the offerings and incense, and sincerely went to burn incense for the ancestors.

Before leaving, he thought of the urn, so he asked Wu Weiwei to take him with him, and he wanted to find a place on the mountain to bury the unknown skeleton. He also took the weasel to familiarize itself with the surrounding environment.

Knowing that he could learn something by going up the mountain, Wu Weiwei responded happily through the window in the room. Due to his excitement, he didn’t look at the road when he ran out and almost bumped into Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu looked past Wu Weiwei and glanced at Chen Ling who was standing at the gate: “You’re going out?”

Chen Ling waved the three incense sticks in his hand and the heavy paper bag of roast chicken hanging on his wrist at him, and silently said with his mouth: “Reward you.”
