Page Boy’s Yin & Yang Road - C115
“Then what do you want us to do for you?” Seeing Cao Fenglin finish talking about the reason for the incident, he asked directly.
Cao Fenglin paused for a moment, looked at me with a somewhat heavy gaze, and said to Wu Ji: “I hope you two can help me investigate the cause of death of my daughter.”
“Wasn’t it for the police to look for the cause of your daughter’s death?” I asked curiously.
Cao Fenglin looked at Wu Ji and said that his daughter died of an illness on the surface, but he had always felt that the matter was very strange, because not only did he say that his daughter had periodically taken a medical examination, but also that she had been extremely healthy since young.
And even if he did not find the underlying cause of the disease, the cause of the disease was unknown. Even the doctors did not manage to find the cause of the disease, and all of this happened not long after his daughter and Lin Baiquan registered for the marriage!
With just these, Cao Fenglin had already suspected that Lin Baiquan had some sort of plan, and after the private investigator he sent to report back that Lin Baiquan was drunk, Cao Fenglin was even more determined to believe that this matter was related to Lin Baiquan!
After being drunk, a person’s consciousness would no longer be clear, and their vigilance would be lowered by quite a bit. Even if the words spoken were not 100% true, they would still be at least 60 to 70% authentic!
With regards to Cao Fenglin’s request, I feel that it’s a bit strange. Not to mention whether his daughter was truly killed by Lin Baiquan, even if it’s true, what kind of method does Wu Ji intend to use to investigate this matter? We’re not detectives and we’re not police. This is totally a professional mistake.
I want to see what Xiang Wuji means.
He quietly listened to what Cao Fenglin had to say, and asked after pausing for a moment: “Has your daughter’s corpse been cremated?”
Cao Fenglin shook his head and said, “No.”
Although cremation is practised today, with regards to the local customs or the special needs of the rich and powerful, it is still possible to use the traditional method of burial. During Dongkanzi Village, I know quite a few, because rural people are relatively more secretive and believe that corpses should be left intact after death.
Moreover, there were also places where it was believed that when a person burned the corpse after death, the soul of the deceased could empathize with the body, which was the same as incinerating the soul of the deceased. Not only would the dead not be able to rest peacefully in the grave, it would instead make the dead suffer even more after death.
Hearing that Cao Fenglin’s daughter was not cremated, Wu Ji asked him why he did not choose to perform an autopsy since he suspected that Lin Baiquan was the culprit.
Although there were some causes of death that could not be detected while living, if a person dissected the corpse after death, they would be able to discover a lot of clues that they had not been able to discover before.
But if it was Lin Baiquan who killed his daughter, no matter if it was the poison or some kind of evil trick, it would mostly leave clues inside and outside of his body, so an autopsy was the quickest way to find the crux of the problem, and it was also the most powerful and reliable way.
Although Wu Ji helped people catch ghosts and drive away evil spirits, he would never earn any extra money. If Cao Fenglin said these words to the other masters and masters on the market, they would definitely agree to it, and quickly agree to it. At that time, they would find a random excuse to lie, and their act would be gone.
After all, no one dared to say anything about the subject of mystical arts and learning. There were always many kinds of truths and falsehoods. Even if they were exposed, those with more brain activity could still find other excuses to go back.
However, Wu Ji made the most direct suggestion. If Cao Fenglin took this suggestion, then he would naturally lose a portion of his income.
“Someone also suggested this to me, but my daughter left miserably enough, so how can I let her …” As he finished speaking, Cao Fenglin suddenly felt a bit choked up, and was unable to finish the last half of his sentence.
That’s right, if they were in another place to think about it, then no matter who stood on Cao Fenglin’s position, they wouldn’t have the heart to send their daughter’s body to be dissected. And the Chinese have always valued such things.
“But what can we do if we don’t dissect the corpse?” I couldn’t help but ask.
Cao Fenglin calmed his emotions, looked at us and said: “Then we have to see if master has a way. If you promise, I will provide you all the help you need, regardless of whether you want people or money, even if you want to take my, Cao Fenglin’s, life, all you need to do is for you to find out the cause of my daughter’s death! ”
Hearing him say that, I felt that it was difficult, Cao Fenglin is certain that his daughter was killed by Lin Baiquan, and what we need to investigate is how Lin Baiquan actually killed his daughter!
But if we agree to this matter, in the end, we find out that Lin Baiquan was just spouting nonsense, and that the real cause of death for his daughter was a sudden illness, would Cao Fenglin believe it?
This kind of decision requires Wu Ji to make himself, I don’t have any concept of this kind of thing. Just listening to it makes me feel that it’s a bit weird, and I don’t know if Wu Ji has any way to fulfill this Cao Fenglin’s request.
Seeing that we were quiet for a moment, Cao Fenglin indicated to the butler and he immediately pushed a bank card in front of us.
I looked at Cao Fenglin suspiciously, not knowing what he meant by that.
Cao Fenglin said: “Inside this is the deposit of five hundred thousand. If you can find the answer that I want, I will also pay you another five hundred thousand! Furthermore, all the expenses incurred during this period of time shall be borne by me. ”
The deposit was five hundred thousand, and after the deal was completed, there would still be five hundred thousand. That added up to a million!
In my entire life, I have never seen one million yuan, and I never even thought of earning one million yuan. Although this money belongs to Wu Ji, I feel envious watching it from the side, and wish I could agree to this matter on his behalf!
However, Wu Ji did not even glance at the bank card and only told Cao Fenglin that he would try to find some related questions, but whether or not he could actually find the security Lin Baiquan had used to harm his daughter, he could not guarantee.
In other words, Wu Ji agreed, but did not make things too categorical.
Hearing that, Cao Fenglin’s brow relaxed a little, and he nodded: “Then I’ll be troubling you!”
In the end, when we left, Wu Ji did not take the card with him. He meant that if he took it after we settle this matter, Cao Fenglin would show some praise towards his actions.
After that, perhaps because he was afraid that Wu Ji would directly fire him and fire him, Cao Fenglin found out that Wu Ji did not have any real estate in the city, so he lent Wu Ji a house under his name. Furthermore, the driver service was all prepared, causing me to be extremely envious.
After we said our goodbyes, Cao Fenglin turned around and walked back to his room. On the way, I asked Wu Ji, confused: “This Cao Fenglin seems to have a lot of trust in you, and is even confident that you can help him find a clue. He has a house and money, and is practically begging for your help.
Wu Ji smiled, and explained the reason to me.
So there was actually a reason why Cao Fenglin trusted Wu Ji so much. This matter was related to a place that Wu Ji had helped people look after.
Roughly a year ago, a person who had been introduced to Wu Ji by a friend had found him and asked him to help him choose a Yin Residence. That was because this person wanted to move his father’s tomb.
There weren’t many things like moving to a cemetery. Previously, he said that the Chinese people all wanted to bury their people in the ground to make peace. Since they had already buried them in a coffin, it wouldn’t be easy to dig them out without a reason.
When people argue, they always say, ‘I dig up your ancestor’s grave’ or something like that.
The graves of the elders, in particular, were closely related to the future generations of the family. If the graves were chosen well, it would not be difficult for the future generations to get rich, and if they did not, it would not be strange for them to have bad luck in the past three disasters.
It was even harder for the dead to disturb the peace and quiet after they had been buried in the ground. It might even ruin the feng shui of the tomb, and might disturb the dead as well.
Otherwise, all of the Tomb Robber s would not end up well, because they had to dig graves to damage their merits, although not every dead person would care about this, and not every grave had their own ghosts that did not dissipate, but as long as one or two were struck, that was bad enough for a lifetime.
