Chapter 1022 Qingchuan
"Ah!
Even now, you're still stubbornly refusing to admit it!
Alright, I'm not going to argue with you about this anymore. There's no point in arguing with a dead person anyway.
"you……"
Song Yaoyao didn't say anything more. With a wave of her hand, Song Yi immediately stepped forward and ended Lan Jinyi's life.
Next, without Song Yaoyao saying anything, Song Yi and the others took the initiative to search the corpse.
Previously, they were very resistant to touching corpses, but after they tasted the benefits, they started doing it on their own initiative without Song Yaoyao having to say anything.
Every time they found some silver, their master refused it and let them divide it among themselves.
This allowed them to accumulate a considerable fortune.
After touching the corpse, Song Yaoyao took out the corpse-dissolving powder and handed it over, saying:
"Clean it up a bit more."
"Yes."
……
Song Yaoyao sent a message to the Emperor about what had happened here.
After receiving the letter, the Emperor was finally relieved.
……
In the days that followed, Song Yaoyao traveled around, and when she encountered injustice, she would decisively take action.
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
During this time, Song Yaoyao and her friends planned to visit the Witch Clan.
The Witch Clan is so mysterious; Song Yaoyao has wanted to visit them for a long time.
On that day, when they arrived at the witch clan, they encountered a funeral procession.
Song Yaoyao ordered everyone to make way.
That evening, Song Yaoyao and her companions found a village to stay in.
Song Yaoyao and her friends stayed at the village chief's house.
Song Yaoyao asked:
"Village chief, how far is it from here to the Witch Clan?"
"Are you going to the Witch Clan?"
"Ah."
"It's very close. It only takes a day to walk there."
"Oh."
The village chief seemed to remember something and warned:
"Gentlemen, whatever you hear tonight, pretend you didn't hear anything, and don't go out to investigate!"
Song Yi asked in confusion:
"Village chief, what do you mean by that?"
"There are some things I can't say too much about. Just remember what I said. Remember that, otherwise if something happens, no one can save you!"
Song Yi wanted to ask more, but the village chief had already gotten up and left, clearly unwilling to say more.
Song Yi asked:
"Master, what should we do now?"
"Since we're new here, we should do as the village chief says."
"Yes."
After dinner, Song Yaoyao and the others went back to their respective rooms.
Lying in bed, Song Yaoyao asked:
[Guagua, what did the village chief mean by what he said earlier?]
Moreover, I found this village particularly eerie. As soon as the sun set, no one could be seen in the village anymore; everyone was hiding in their homes.
The villages we passed through before weren't like this. After dinner, everyone would gather together to chat, and the village would be filled with the laughter of children.
Look at this village again, it looks eerie no matter how you look at it. Do you know why?
Guagua: [I know.]
Song Yaoyao: [Tell me quickly.]
Guagua: [Here's what happened.]
There was a girl named Qingchuan in this village.
This girl lost both her parents at a young age and was later taken in as a disciple by a man named Youchen from the Wu tribe.
Let's talk about Youchen first.
In modern terms, Youchen's profession is that of a mortician.
Because of his profession, Youchen has remained unmarried and childless even in middle age.
Once, Youchen went out and saw young Qingchuan being bullied. He took pity on her, rescued her, and took her in as his disciple.
For the next ten years or so, with Youchen protecting her, Qingchuan lived a very happy life.
After shifting slightly, Guagua continued:
Youchen passed away at the age of 58.
By then, Qingchuan had grown into a beautiful young woman.
When Youchen was alive, with her master around, Qingchuan never had to worry about making a living.
Although the profession of mortician is daunting, the income is not low, and Youchen's income is more than enough to support the two of them, master and apprentice.
Previously, Youchen wanted to pass on his skills to Qingchuan.
However, Qingchuan didn't like this profession at all. She was a young woman, and if she had to deal with dead people every day, how would she ever get married?
But she didn't dare tell her master.
Every time her master taught her, it went in one ear and out the other.
Song Yaoyao: [And then? ]
Guagua: [Qingchuan didn't learn anything.]
After Youchen passed away, six months later, Qingchuan had spent all the money her master had left her, and she had to find a way to earn money to support herself.
She hadn't learned the art of embalming, nor did she know anything else.
Just as she was worrying about making a living, something happened.
Song Yaoyao: [What's up?]
Guagua: [There was a wealthy businessman named Qiu Lin. He and his son Qiu Chengye went out to discuss business. On the way, they encountered robbers. He survived, but his son met with misfortune.]
Qiu Chengye never married or had children, nor did he have any concubines.
The Qiu couple were devastated and, fearing their son would be lonely in the afterlife, they decided to arrange a ghost marriage.
When Qingchuan found out about this, she felt that her chance had come.
Qingchuan took the initiative to approach Master Qiu and said that she was willing to arrange a ghost marriage for Young Master Qiu.
The Qiu couple were utterly astonished. They were looking for a woman who had recently died and whose birth chart matched theirs; they hadn't expected to find a living person.
However, at this time, the master invited by the Qiu family said that it would be even better if a living person were to be paired with a ghost for a marriage.
Qingchuan doesn't need to be buried with him. She does good deeds in the mortal world, and as husband and wife are one, the merit she accumulates will go to Young Master Qiu. He will have a very smooth life in the underworld, and once he has accumulated enough merit, he will soon be arranged to be reincarnated.
Song Yaoyao: [Is this even possible?]
What happened next? 】
Guagua: [After hearing this, the Qiu couple agreed.]
After that, they had a master match their birth charts, and it turned out that Young Master Qiu and Qingchuan's birth charts were very compatible.
And so, Qingchuan married the deceased Young Master Qiu.
Logically speaking, Qingchuan should have stayed with the Qiu family, but the other branches of the Qiu family considered it unlucky, so they united to oppose Qingchuan moving into the Qiu family.
Qiu Lin had no choice but to buy Qingchuan a one-courtyard house outside, let her move in, and gave her a large sum of money to take care of herself.
After a pause, Guagua continued:
Qingchuan was only after money; she never intended to guard a dead person for the rest of her life.
Originally, Qingchuan was thinking about how to get away, but unexpectedly, the opportunity came.
After moving out, Qingchuan sold the house, packed up her valuables, and fled overnight.
Song Yaoyao: [What happened next? ]
Guagua: With this money, Qingchuan lived a life of luxury.
After two years of living a carefree life, Qingchuan had already squandered almost all the things she brought from the Qiu family.
So she resorted to her old tricks again, arranging a second ghost marriage for herself.
Song Yaoyao: [This Qingchuan is really something!]
Guagua, just tell me, how many ghost marriages did she have in total?
Guagua: [5 times.]
Song Yaoyao: [My goodness, that's incredibly skillful and daring!]
