"Why are you guys here?"
When he arrived downstairs, Ye Xuan looked at Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng who were just entering and could not help but ask in puzzlement.
"Master…Master…"
The two of them were panting. Clearly, they had run all the way here.
" Master asked us to find you," Qiu Sheng said." Just now, we dug out a coffin in the south of the village!"”
"What is it? Dig out a coffin?"
Ye Xuan's eyes instantly focused.
"What's going on? Didn't you guys instruct everyone to dig a well to find a new water source? How could a coffin suddenly be dug out?”
"We're not sure about that either."
Qiu Sheng answered quickly.
"Previously, we were digging a well at the location that Master had set. However, for some reason, as we were digging, we suddenly dug out a coffin.”
"There's such a thing?"
At this moment, Ye Xuan already understood that the coffin that was dug out was very likely to be the missing Father William.
"Not good!"
Ye Xuan's expression suddenly changed.
He suddenly remembered that there should be a cross with a ruby on Father William's chest.
If any of the villagers were greedy and took down the ruby cross, then things would be a big problem.
"Let's go and take a look!”
Ye Xuan said to Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai before bidding farewell to the middle-aged dean behind him. Only then did he take the lead and rush towards the location the two of them had mentioned.
Rumble!
At the same time, the sky suddenly began to rain heavily.
In the south of Qingshui Village, Ninth Uncle looked at Chen Danian and the others with a gloomy expression. He could not help but say with a hint of anger,"
"Village Chief, what's going on? Didn't I remind you guys before? That corpse was very dangerous and had to be cremated as soon as possible. Before that, he had to watch it closely and not let anyone take it away!
But now?"
Ninth Uncle was really furious.
When they dug up the corpse, especially when he saw the ruby cross on the corpse, he knew that there was something wrong with the corpse, and it was a big problem!
At the same time, he also understood that the ruby cross that was inserted on the corpse was a huge temptation to these villagers.
This was also the main reason why he was so patient and kept reminding Chen Danian and the others to take good care of the corpse and not let it be stolen by others.
But now, the thing that his Ninth Uncle did not want to see the most had still happened.
Chen Danian and the others were also embarrassed by Ninth Uncle's words.
They did not expect that there would be such a bold person in their village who dared to steal such a corpse.
Chen Danian said apologetically,""Ninth Uncle, calm down first. I'll send someone to investigate this matter immediately. We'll definitely find that corpse in the shortest time possible!”
"Sigh…"
Ninth Uncle shook his head and sighed heavily.
"I'm just afraid that there won't be enough time."
"Too late?"
Chen Danian and the others clearly did not quite understand.
Uncle Nine explained," To tell you the truth, you must have seen the ruby cross on the corpse. That's right. It's a magical artifact that suppresses the corpse and prevents it from transforming.
If someone couldn't hold back their greed and tried to take the ruby cross off the corpse, the corpse would probably turn into a corpse in an instant.”
"What is it? Instant corpse transformation?"
Upon hearing Ninth Uncle's words, Chen Danian and the others 'expressions changed drastically.
"How could this be? Ninth Uncle, what should we do now? What if…"
Just as Chen Danian and the others were shocked and terrified by Ninth Uncle's words, Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng's shouts suddenly came from not far away.
Master, Mister Ye is here!"
"Hmm?"
Ninth Uncle, Chen Danian, and the others immediately turned to look.
In the heavy rain, Ye Xuan, Wen Cai, Qiu Sheng, and the others were quickly rushing over.
When they walked in, Ye Xuan immediately looked at Ninth Uncle and asked,"
"Ninth Uncle, I heard that you dug up a coffin. Is there a corpse that hasn't decomposed in that coffin? How was the situation now? Did you cremate it?"
"Eh…?"
Upon hearing Ye Xuan's question, Ninth Uncle immediately shook his head and sighed.
As for Chen Danian and the others, they all had awkward expressions and fear in their eyes.
After all, Ye Xuan's status was not comparable to Ninth Uncle's. They could still discuss with Ninth Uncle or even brush him off. However, if they did not handle Ye Xuan well, all of them would probably have to pack up and leave.
This was quite possible.
After all, Ye Xuan was the young master of the Ye Family. Once he was really angered, the consequences were not something they could bear at all.
"What happened?"
As if sensing that something was wrong, Ye Xuan's expression immediately darkened.
Chen Danian and the others did not dare to speak. Instead, they turned their gazes to Ninth Uncle.
Ninth Uncle sighed again. He no longer hid anything and told Ye Xuan everything that had happened.
"Wow, aren't they too bold? He even dared to steal a corpse like that. Did he not want to live?”
Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng could not help but exclaim.
But Ye Xuan sneered.
"So what? Some people even dared to touch their ancestral graves for the sake of benefits. A mere corpse was nothing.”
The scene instantly fell silent.
Ye Xuan couldn't be bothered to say any more nonsense. He immediately turned to Chen Danian and said,
"Quickly organize your men to search for that corpse. Remember, if you find anything, don't make any decisions on your own. Immediately come and inform Ninth Uncle and me, understand?”
"Yes, yes, yes. We'll send someone to investigate immediately!”
How could Chen Danian and the others dare to say anything else? Upon hearing this, all of them immediately bowed and accepted the order. They quickly arranged for their men to go.
"Ninth Uncle, let's split up.”
At this moment, Ye Xuan looked at Ninth Uncle.
Ninth Uncle pondered for a moment and then nodded.
"Alright, but you have to be careful, Mister Ye. I suspect that thing might not be ordinary.”
"Yeah, you too."
Ye Xuan nodded.
Soon, the two sides split up and went to search for the corpse.
