Surprise! Mrs. Xie is setting up a fortune-telling stall on a tricycle again

Li Jiefeng's hometown is Ganshi Village.

It’s about seven or eight hours’ drive from Beijing.

Li Jiefeng and his friends were planning to drive back, but Jiang Cha said, "Driving is too slow."

Li Jiecheng supported his wife, who was a little unsteady due to her excitement, and said, "It would be more convenient to drive. High-speed trains and planes can only go to the city, and then it would be very troublesome to transfer. It might take longer than driving."

Jiang Cha put his hand on the back of Xie Jiutang's wheelchair and patted it twice, "Master Jiu, can you lend me the helicopter?"

At a glance from Xie Jiutang, Steward Lin immediately made a phone call to arrange a helicopter.

In less than two hours, the group arrived at their destination, Ganshi Village.

Ganshi Village is located deep in the mountains and forests. There is only one small road extending out of the entire village. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides and is visibly poor. Crops are planted in the fields, but the ground is dry and water-scarce, so the grain harvest is not good.

There are a total of seventeen households in the entire village, and only the Li family has built a two-story Western-style house.

The Li Jiefeng brothers went to Beijing to work early and only returned home a few times a year. The elderly person in their family had passed away. Before they returned home, the house was empty and all the furniture was covered in dust.

The vegetable patch in the yard was also deserted, overgrown with weeds taller than a person.

Li Jiefeng opened the door and wanted to boil water to make tea for Jiang Cha and the others, but he found that the well at home was dry. When he finally fetched water from the shared well at the entrance of the village, he found that the tea leaves at home had gone moldy.

Li Jiefeng went to his neighbor's house to borrow tea again.

After Jiang Cha entered the house, he began to look around.

She first looked at the Li family's feng shui, then looked at the situation of their Li family's ancestral home, and then began to walk around the village.

The crow threw Li Jin onto the bed. The bed, which had been unoccupied for a long time, was covered with a layer of dust. The crow pretended not to see it, turned around and ran away, following to protect Jiang Cha.

Xie Rongan also followed.

Xiao Hei was wrapped around Jiang Cha's arm, and from a distance it looked like there was an extra tattoo on Jiang Cha's arm.

Li Jiecheng ran away from home and wanted to take Jiang Cha to see the ghost girl's grave.

Jiang Cha shook his head, "Don't worry, where is your village chief?"

"Do you have something to do with the village chief?" Li Jiecheng asked.

"Well, let's look for it." said Jiang Cha.

Li Jiecheng didn't ask any more questions and went to the village chief's house with ginger tea.

The village chief is an elderly man who is a little hard of hearing. He is in his seventies and should have retired and been replaced long ago. However, all the younger people in Ganshi Village have left to work outside, and the only ones left in the village are either elderly or children. Those elderly people are older than the current village chief, so he cannot step down.

When Jiang Cha and his friends arrived at the village head's house, he was cooking on a large earthen stove in the countryside, using dried corn leaves to start the fire.

People of the village chief’s age were used to using matches. They still use matches to light fires. A small match can light up with just a touch.

The village chief's house is only a one-story bungalow, which is larger than the Li family's, but there is no one else in the house except the village chief.

His children bought a house in the county town, started their own family and career in the county town, and his grandchildren also went to school in the county town, so they may not be able to come back once a year.

The children also suggested taking the village chief to live in the city, but the village chief, who had been accustomed to rural life all his life, could not adapt to the pace of city life at all. In addition, he had no way to leave the villagers of Ganshi Village behind, so he came back after just a few days.

Some people say that the village chief is stupid and doesn’t know how to enjoy the good days.

But the village chief always smiled and said nothing.

Jiang Cha was standing outside the door, and through the large glass window he just happened to see the village chief sitting on an old wooden stool, silently lighting a match.

Li Jiecheng shouted loudly inside: "Village Chief, Village Chief Li Ming, I am Li Jiecheng."

I shouted several times, but got no response.

Li Jiecheng smiled at Jiang Cha apologetically and said, "The old man's hearing loss may have worsened. I'll go in and find him."

When Jiang Cha looked up, he saw a big fat black cat lying next to the chimney on the kitchen roof. The cat's pupils were very bright and it was staring at Jiang Cha.

Jiang Cha asked Li Jiecheng: "When did the village start to be short of water?"

Judging from the Feng Shui structure of Ganshi Village, there should be no water shortage, but the current water shortage is obviously quite serious.

Li Jie admitted that he really thought about it and said, "It should be five years ago. I don't know the exact time. At that time, my brother and I were working outside. We only learned about the drought when we came back to worship our ancestors. I may have asked the village chief for the details."

Li Jiecheng pushed open the door of the village chief's house and walked in.

There is a well in the yard of the village chief's house.

Jiang Cha walked over and tried to press it, but no water came out.

Suddenly, a black shadow jumped over and landed on the well in front of Jiang Cha. The black cat licked its paws and then looked at Jiang Cha.

"Meow."

"Where are you taking me?" Jiang Cha started talking to the black cat.

"Meow."

The black cat asked Ginger Tea to follow it, then jumped up and ran across the roof to another place.

Ginger tea quickly followed.

When the village chief and Li Jiecheng came out, only Xie Rongan and Crow were left in the yard, looking at each other in bewilderment.

They wanted to follow Jiang Cha, but when they turned around, the man disappeared.

Crow thought he was pretty fast, but in front of Miss Jiang, he was nothing.

Jiang Cha followed the black cat into an abandoned old house in the deepest part of the village.

The house looks very old and has a sense of age.

The eaves were covered with spider silk and looked shaky, as if they would collapse at any second.

The black cat ran very fast, and its figure flashed by and disappeared again.

Xiao Hei quickly climbed onto the roof and followed.

Jiang Cha followed the black cat to a yard. The yard was desolate and eerie.

She found a rusty shovel and walked in. The shovel was originally rusty and unusable, but when it came into her hand, she wrote and drew a few times on the handle, and the shovel immediately became brand new, as new as if it had just been stolen from the grocery store.

The weeds in the yard were taller than she was.

When Xie Rongan and Crow came over, they didn't see Jiang Cha, but only saw weeds shaking in the middle of the yard, which looked eerie and scary.

Xie Rongan didn't dare to move forward, and directly grabbed Wu Ya's hand, "Wait a minute, call out first, what if it's not her?"

Crow shouted inside: "Miss Jiang, are you there?"

As soon as the crow finished shouting, a black snake pounced towards them.

Before Xie Rongan recognized that it was Xiao Hei, his legs went limp with fear and he hid behind the crow.

"Hiss~" Xiao Hei spit out his tongue at them, then turned his head, signaling them to follow.

Xie Rongan and Crow followed Xiao Hei to the utility room. Xiao Hei used his tail to hook two shovels down and motioned for them to pick them up.

Xie Rongan and Crow picked up the two shovels on the ground that had been corroded by time and were almost unusable, and followed Xiao Hei along a path into the yard.

The road was not straight, and it turned around and came to the middle of the yard.

There is a dry well in the middle.

Ginger tea is dug next to the dry well.

Xie Rongan walked over and asked, "Where did you steal such a new shovel?"

Jiang Cha threw the shovel in his hand to him, then took the shovel from Xie Rongan and drew on it a few times, and the shovel was back to its original state.

The crow came over and when he saw this scene, he consciously handed over the shovel in his hand.

Xie Rongan asked Wu Ya: "Do you just accept it so calmly?"

Wu Ya straightened his back and said, "Ms. Jiang is not a human."

Jiang Cha glanced at him.

Crow immediately explained: "I mean she is not an ordinary person. Anything that happens to her is reasonable. Being powerful is reasonable."

Xie Rongan pressed his brows. He almost forgot that Crow's desire to be strong has always been stronger than others.

Jiang Cha knocked the ground with a shovel and said, "Dig up the places I marked, about two meters deep."

"Two meters?" Xie Rongan had never dug such a deep hole in his entire life.

Crow has taken direct action. He took off his suit jacket, revealing a short-sleeved white shirt underneath.

When you grip the shovel handle and apply force, the strong muscles in your arms will tense up.

Crow has the best physique among all the bodyguards.

Xie Rongan took a quick glance and couldn't help but compare himself to others. He simply unbuttoned two buttons of his floral shirt. When he bent over and exerted force, his chest muscles bulged and the muscle lines became very visible.

Xiao Hei watched them competing with each other in muscle strength, and couldn't help but straighten his upper body and try hard to pose.

The only audience member in the room didn't even look at them.

Jiang Cha walked around the yard and dug up a spot.

After digging for a while, I picked out a few pitch-black beads.

The bead was as big as a black grape, round and radiating an ominous luster. It was clearly just dug out of the ground, but the bead was not dull at all.

When Jiang Cha came back, Xie Rongan was curious about the black beads in her hand and reached out to touch them.

Jiang Cha dodged and used the handle of the shovel to push away Xie Rongan's outstretched hand, saying, "Don't touch it if you don't want your hand to rot."

Xie Rongan was so scared that he jumped back more than a meter.

Jiang Cha looked at the hole they had dug and said, "Keep digging."

The black cat was on the roof, looking at them anxiously and pacing back and forth.

The rubble made noises from time to time because of the cat's movement.

Xie Rongan looked in the direction of the black cat several times, and goose bumps appeared on his arms. He rubbed his arms and asked Jiang Cha: "Dad, is there something on the roof?"

He couldn't see the black cat.

The black cat is just a ghost.

Half an hour later.

They finally dug up something, a human skeleton and the remains of a kitten.

Jiang Cha squatted down, picked up the bodies of the two, took the suit jacket that Crow had taken off, and threw it to Crow, "Hold it."

The crow dropped the shovel and hugged the thing in his arms tightly.

Several people left the abandoned old house again.

As soon as I walked out, I saw Li Jiecheng and the village chief at the door.

The village chief's face was covered with some black stains from the bottom of the pot.

Jiang Cha walked over and asked the village chief directly, "Did the owner of this old house come back five years ago?"

The village chief thought seriously for a while and said, "Yes, he came back once and brought several people with him, including a fortune teller. He said he was planning to come back and rebuild the old house, and he also asked the fortune teller to come and calculate the date and feng shui, but after a few days, he left again."

Li Jiecheng also remembered this incident and said, "Yes, we happened to come back to worship and saw them once. Their family left Ganshi Village 20 or 30 years ago and never came back since then. They came back once five years ago and have never been back since then."

Xie Rongan couldn't help but ask: "Is this related to Li Jin's matter or to the water shortage in the village?"

The water shortage in the entire Ganshi Village was obvious, and they all noticed it when they first entered the village.

Jiang Cha said casually: "It has something to do with lack of water."

Li Jiecheng immediately became excited, "Master, can you crack it? Can you restore the water source in the village to its original state?"

Ganshi Village never lacked water in the past. There was a river that must pass through here, and there was also an endless supply of spring water in the mountains, which was enough for the daily use and planting needs of the villagers.

But this situation has gradually worsened since five years ago. First, the river continued to shrink and the riverbed rose, then the water source decreased, and later even mountain spring water became very scarce. Originally, every household had a well water that could be drunk directly, but later they gradually became dry wells.

Jiang Cha: "It can be restored, but your family needs to provide a piece of land."

Li Jiecheng immediately said, "It doesn't matter. As long as the water source in the village can be restored, let alone a piece of land, you can even take all our land."

Jiang Cha casually put the shovel on his shoulder, stepped on his flip-flops, and said, "Let's go, now we can go see the female ghost's grave."

Li Jiecheng couldn't quite follow Jiang Cha's train of thought, but he just had to do as he was told and lead the way.

"The grave is a bit far away, let's go home and get some water first." Li Jiecheng said.

The group returned to Li Jiecheng's home.

Before Jiang Cha left, he glanced at the black cat. The black cat stretched on the roof, and when Jiang Cha and the others left, he also jumped up.

After arriving at Li's house, Li Jiecheng immediately found a pair of Jiefang shoes and handed them to Jiang Cha, saying, "Master, we will be crossing two mountains soon. The mountain road is not easy to walk on. Do you think you should change your shoes first?"

Ginger Tea looked down at her flip-flops, "No, thank you."

Li Jiecheng wanted to give them some more advice, mainly because they had often climbed those two mountains and knew how difficult the road was.

Xie Rongan put his hand on Li Jiecheng's shoulder and said, "Uncle, don't try to persuade her. She won't be hurt even if she doesn't wear it."

Li Jiecheng thought that maybe this was the realm of a master, so he stopped persuading him.

Li Jiecheng and Li Jiefeng followed, Su Fangfang was at home.

The crow carries Li Jin on its back.

The village chief was also going to go, but he was too old, and the two Li brothers refused to let him go, so they found an excuse to let the village chief go home.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Xie Rongan wiped the sweat from his forehead, then looked up at the nearly vertical mountain in front of him and asked in shock: "Is this how you usually climb to worship your ancestors?"

Li Jiefeng skillfully found a hemp rope three fingers thick from the pile of weeds, grabbed the rope to gain leverage and began to climb up.

Li Jiecheng showed a somewhat silly smile, "We are all used to it. After climbing over this mountain, there is a higher mountain behind it."

Xie Rongan: “…”

The last time he climbed such a high mountain, he carried a lot of mountaineering equipment.

The Li brothers simply pulled a hemp rope with their bare hands and climbed up flexibly.

Comparable to the flexibility of Maluo.
