Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

Chi Shuyan did have other motives for coming here. She wanted to know what was behind the mystery of Dashan Village.

At the same time, she was more curious about what happened during the days when Qi Zhenbai went missing. What kind of agreement did he reach with Aunt Miao? Why had she suddenly been willing to lead them out of the village?

Chi Shuyan asked all the questions she wanted to ask. Aunt Miao didn't want to hide it anymore. She was about to speak, when there was a knock on the door. Aunt Miao was about to get up, but Chi Shuyan got up first and said, "I'll go open the door."

When the door opened, not only were Brother Feng, Xiao Shan and Old Wu there, Director Wang, Ruan Shenglin, Yang Zhengming, Yang Kun, Song Yanru, Cao Zhengsong and Song Chu were also there. Chi Shuyan was a bit surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Everyone is here?"

Compared with the calm faces of Brother Feng and the others, Director Wang, Ruan Shenglin, Yan Zhengming and Yang Kun looked a bit embarrassed and nervous. Speaking of which, they had shamelessly followed her. Seeing that Master Chi was indeed in Aunt Miao's room, Director Wang and the others were a bit curious and asked carefully, "Master… Master Chi, can you also tell us about the village?"

Everyone was curious. Director Wang and the others were indeed very curious about the oddities and mystery of Dashan Village, but more than that, they wanted to know if the matter with the Buddha statue in the village was over.

Yan Zhengming in particular had heard from Yang Kun that Shenglin had been possessed and 'turned crazy' because of that Buddha. Fortunately, Master Chi had taken action, so Shenglin was fine.

When Director Wang asked Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun how they knew Master Chi, the two didn't hide it and immediately explained the matter in detail, including how Qin Qing had given the Ruan family a strange black Buddha pendant with ulterior motives, and how they had encountered a calamity.

Because of this, Director Wang and the others were more subdued about escaping Dashan Village. At the same time, they also understood that just because they had escaped from the village didn't mean that the matter was over.

After what happened in the village, everyone, including Director Wang, knew that there really were ghosts and supernatural beings in this world. They had to believe it.

If any of them were as unlucky as Shenglin, and some malicious person gave them a pendant of the True Buddha Lord… Director Wang and the others were scared witless just thinking about it, especially when they thought of the tragic fates of Ke Mingmei and the others. Director Wang and the others immediately couldn't sit still when they found out what happened to Shenglin, so they couldn't care about being thick-skinned and had come over to find out what happened in Dashan Village.

More than that, they wanted to know from Master Chi if this matter was over.

Chi Shuyan didn't say anything at that moment. She glanced around calmly and guessed most of what Director Wang and the others were thinking. At that moment, Aunt Miao saw Director Wang and the others and could guess what was going on. She wasn't surprised. She didn't want to make things difficult for Miss Chi. Besides, there was no difference if she told it to one person or to everyone. Even if it was a family scandal, after so many decades and experiencing so many things, she felt more relieved than anything else.

She could let go of everything, including all the unkind things that the Xu mother and son had done. The only thing she wanted now was for her child to be fine.

Aunt Miao immediately said readily, "Since you want to come in, come in! There's nothing you can't hear!"

Hearing Aunt Miao's words, Chi Shuyan relaxed. If Aunt Miao really wasn't willing, Chi Shuyan didn't want to force her. Conversely, she empathized with Aunt Miao. After all, exposing the scars in her heart wasn't an easy thing to do. In short, what Aunt Miao thought was the most important.

After hearing Aunt Miao's words, Chi Shuyan had Director Wang and the others come in with Brother Feng's group.

Director Wang and the others were afraid that Master Chi and Aunt Miao would change their minds and not let them in. They immediately said that they would listen obediently and not interrupt. One by one, they pulled out chairs and sat down quietly. After Director Wang said that, no one spoke again.

The corners of Feng Yuanlin, Xiao Shan, and Wu Haoming's mouths couldn't help but twitch at Director Wang's obedient attitude.

Chi Shuyan was quite satisfied with the attitude of Director Wang and the others.

After greeting Brother Feng, Chi Shuyan didn't waste any more time. She looked at Aunt Miao and said, "Aunt Miao, please!"

Aunt Miao nodded and said, "Back then, Dashan Village was still a very simple village. Although it was a little poor, everyone was content and happy, and didn't have any other thoughts. My life was really good. I'm 56 years old now. I accidentally entered Dashan Village when I was 18 or 19. I happened to faint in Dashan Village, and it was the Xu mother and son who saved me. At that time, Dashan Village was poor, and the Xu family was even poorer. Mother Xu saw that I looked good, and hatched a plan."

At that point, Aunt Miao paused for a moment before she continued, "At that time, I quite liked the simple atmosphere in the village. In addition, the Xu mother and son were indeed good to me, so it wasn't long before I married Xu Jianmin. It's just that the life of a daughter-in-law is different from that of a daughter. It's good if you have a more open-minded and good-tempered mother-in-law, but if you have a demanding mother-in-law, your days can only be bitter."

Although Aunt Miao had completely let go of what happened back then after so many years, she still couldn't help but sigh when she thought of her days in the Xu family.

At that time, when she saw how good the Xu mother and son were to her on the surface, she thought that they were really good. Later, many years after she married into the Xu family, she realized how two-faced some people could be. She had been a young, unmarried girl back then, so she was valuable to the poor Xu family. Naturally, the Xu mother and son had a motive for treating her well.

The Xu family had a good reputation in Dashan Village. Xu Jianmin was well-known for being a filial son. While that was true, he was also a mommy's boy. He was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong, but he only dared to act unreasonably in his own home.

As for Mother Xu, she had a good reputation in front of others, but not long after Aunt Miao married into the family, Mother Xu revealed her true nature. She was mean and liked to torment her daughter-in-law, and didn't like to see her son and daughter-in-law get along.

Aunt Miao tried to cultivate her feelings with Xu Jianmin. After giving birth, in particular, she hoped that the family would be happier for the sake of the child. It was just that she didn't expect Mother Xu to be so possessive and controlling. As long as Xu Jianmin said a few words in defense of Aunt Miao, it wouldn't be long before Mother Xu immediately sowed discord between her and Xu Jianmin, and accused her of being frivolous and a vixen.

Mother Xu even caused her to give birth prematurely to a son. Mother Xu didn't like the child, and even convinced Xu Jianmin to dislike him too.
