Corpse Recovery Diver

In the graveyard, Beng Beng was smiling happily.

This child preferred and adapted more to this ghostly, sinister environment.

Fortunately, he was still young, and everything could still be corrected.

Li Zhiyuan looked at the child in his arms with a hint of helplessness.

He reached out and pinched the child's mouth shut.

The child stopped smiling.

But when Li Zhiyuan released his hand, the child laughed even more joyfully, as if thinking the young man was playing a game with him.

On the ground beside the young man, there were five damp humanoid marks.

This indicated that the young man had just subdued five Evil spirits trying to break through the soil.

For the young man, this was not difficult at all.

Compared to the Evil entities Jiang Shui had meticulously cooked up, these randomly wild Evil spirits were merely snacks, meant to add some variety.

The Feng Shui of this place originally had no issues, it wasn't great but at least it wasn't bad, but because an industrial park was built ahead, blocking one river and altering the course of another, it artificially turned an ordinary Feng Shui land into a restrictive Yin ground.

Coincidentally, the disturbance caused by Ding Dalin and his Water Monkeys awakened the one in Peach Forest, causing the Peach Forest to suppress the surrounding area, holding back the conflict that should have arisen.

Once the dweller of Peach Forest turned over for a nap, the accumulated Yin energy rushed in here like floodwaters released from a sluice, resulting in the mutation.

The advancement of industrial technology made it increasingly easy for humans to modify nature; projects that used to require gathering a large amount of manpower and resources could now be handled by a construction team equipped with enough machinery.

With the arrival of the era of large-scale infrastructure, such abrupt changes in Feng Shui and the resulting incidents were bound to be numerous.

This was something Li Zhiyuan had long anticipated.

The young man continued to hold Beng Beng with his left hand while extending his right hand forward. As the Karmic Fire emerged, it surged around.

Under the illusory roasting of the Karmic Fire, the ghost energy at the graveyard was cleansed, and the surroundings became extremely clean.

Beng Beng pouted, and stopped giggling.

At dawn, Li Zhiyuan returned home.

The others hadn't come back.

And over the next two days, they still hadn't returned.

Because although they resolved the known issues, there could still be follow-ups, so everyone figured they might as well stay in their positions and be on standby.

Three times a day, Li Zhiyuan would place the Compass on Beng Beng's tummy to perform calculations and perception.

Whenever he discovered any small fry attempting to come in, or something new was about to be born, he would page the nearest partner to deal with it.

Back when Tan Yunlong rode his motorcycle to take him to investigate a case, and they were inquiring at a foot massage parlor, Tan Yunlong said that the discordant elements in society would never disappear, and that true lasting solutions don't exist in this world, but that doesn't mean the significance of each cleansing and crackdown should be denied.

The same goes for filth; no matter how clean a place is, without regular cleaning, it will still gather dust.

However, the news came.

The honest second son of the Wu family, Wu Yougen, came over to invite Li Sanjiang to perform a cleansing ritual.

Li Zhiyuan finally heard the whistle of the end.

He could even say he came here just for this plate of dumplings with vinegar dip.

At first, he only came for the vinegar.

However, what surprised Li Zhiyuan was that the way the Wu family died was a little different from what he had expected.

The police received a report and investigated the Wu family.

There was no material or testimonial evidence, and even the informant had to remain confidential; the investigation was awkward from the start.

As expected, Luo Jinhua and Wu Changshun vehemently denied any such events, swearing that if they had truly committed such unconscionable acts, they would die miserable deaths.

They believed someone in the village was deliberately spreading rumors to make them laughable, so Luo Jinhua led people to scold in front of villagers' houses with grudges, ranting indiscriminately rather than missing anyone.

More absurd and infuriatingly, Wu Youhou, the husband and father of those three children, also didn't recognize it as "hearsay" and even stood up to explain and vouch for his own family to the police.

That day, Grandmaster sat on the second-floor rattan chair, cursing him for quite some time, because Grandmaster had eaten more salt than many others had rice, and clearly understood how disappointing and hateful someone like Wu Youhou could be.

The crux of senseless filial piety isn't the "filial" part, but the "senseless" part; only a fool would continue to live under such unjust life conditions, not splitting from the family after so long, willingly sucking his siblings' livelihoods dry, dragging his wife and children along with him in misery.

When Tan Yunlong received the call from Tan Wenbin about the report, he immediately said this case would be difficult, because he knew too well that some cases could be settled clearly, but others weren't about police wanting to muddy the waters, it was that the case itself was muddy.

The police were very responsible, even going so far as to exhume the recently deceased child's body for forensic examination, revealing no signs of poisoning; it was indeed disease-related death.

However, a child who was underdeveloped from the womb could succumb early if deliberately targeted with careless exposure and malnutrition, or even intentional emotional distress.

The investigation came to no conclusion.

But Luo Jinhua and the others felt guilty, concealing something, so the day after the investigation ended, they had their biological fourth son borrow a tractor from the factory to take the old partner Wu Changshun, the second son, and herself, a total of four people, to Wolf Mountain to burn incense.
