Chapter 71 - 71: The Giant Python in the Graveyard!
Li Yidao was initially taken aback, then shook his head, “Please don’t tease me. Since I’ve come, I naturally want to take a look.”
After speaking, Li Yidao didn’t wait for the other’s response and took the lead, walking ahead.
At this moment, he had already seen the ancestral grave of the Huangpu family in front of him.
There were no weeds around several stone tablets.
The smooth ground and clean inscriptions indicated that someone had been taking care of it regularly.
Upon closer inspection, this was reasonable.
After all, the place was not far from the village, and with the Huangpu family’s status, they could easily hire people to maintain it.
However…
Just as Li Yidao took a few steps forward, his pupils instantly dilated!
He felt like his whole body was frozen in place!
His gaze fixed firmly on what lay ahead!
But upon closer observation, it became clear that his focus wasn’t on the location of the stone tablets.
Instead, his gaze was fixed on the mountain behind the stone tablets!
That mountain gave him a terrifying feeling!
At the same time, while Li Yidao was in the deep mountains, helping the
Huangpu family survey the new ancestral grave site, Sister Zhou, who was in Shanghai, accompanied by her assistant, went to the hospital for a comprehensive examination.
Looking at the examination report without any issues, she fell into contemplation.
Even when she returned home, she still felt uneasy.
Seeing her dazed expression, her assistant comforted her, “Sister Zhou, don’t think too much, don’t be afraid. Look, we went to the hospital for a check-up, and everything is fine.”
“The previous streamers’ deaths were due to their own illnesses. So, you definitely have no problem now, and Brother Dao’s following isn’t necessarily a death sentence. We need to consider the probability…” However, when it came to probabilities, she couldn’t continue.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, she scratched her head.
Sister Zhou looked at her assistant and felt a little helpless.
The probability was not high?
So far, there were 17 people who had been followed, and only Police Officer
Chaoyang didn’t die.
That was because Brother Dao himself said the officer wouldn’t die.
As for herself, she was the 18th person to be followed. How could she not be afraid?
“Um, Sister Zhou, how about… I take you to see a master to have your fortune read?” her assistant suggested.
“I happen to know a master who came from my hometown. He’s quite famous there. Should we go and see him?”
Her assistant hesitated for a moment and then glanced at Sister Zhou.
Sister Zhou was taken aback.
Having her fortune read?
She had never experienced something like that before.
Was this stuff really that mystical?
She couldn’t decide.
After thinking for a while, she shook her head and then gritted her teeth, saying, “No need to find that master. Let’s go to Jiang City and directly find Brother Dao!”
“Instead of seeking others, it’s better to go directly to him. Since he can follow and save Police Officer Chaoyang’s life, I believe… he should be somewhat capable.”
Sister Zhou’s tone carried a hint of uncertainty.
In fact, she hadn’t thought this way yesterday.
But after carefully examining all the information about Li Yidao from the time he became famous until now, she became more and more uneasy and fearful.
Every person Li Yidao had followed experienced accidental deaths completely unrelated to Li Yidao.
The only connection was that they had been followed by him through a click of the follow button.
Could it be that following someone would lead to their untimely death? That would be a joke. No one would believe it.
It was after seeing those incidents that Sister Zhou felt fearful, went to the hospital for a check-up, and made the decision she had now—to directly find Li Yidao.
She didn’t believe it!
As long as she stayed by Li Yidao’s side, he wouldn’t let her die, right?
At this moment, Li Yidao was unaware that Sister Zhou from Shanghai had set off for Jiang City to find him.
Even if he had known, there was nothing he could do about it.
One couldn’t run away from one’s fate.
As the owner of the Brother Yidao Funeral Shop, he couldn’t possibly close down the shop, making it easy for others to find him.
However, at this moment, Li Yidao didn’t have the mental capacity to think about all of this!
He gazed at the distant mountain peak!
An invisible fear surged into his heart!
It was an instinctive fear!
This fear had nothing to do with the system but was an instinct he had never spoken about with anyone!
It was a sense of instinct for certain special situations!
Seeing Li Yidao standing still, his gaze fixed on the distant mountain peak, Huangpu Qi first looked puzzled, then slowly walked up to stand beside Li Yidao.
“You are indeed like your father, able to see through some things,” Huangpu Qi said, shifting his gaze away from the mountain peak ahead, frowning as he looked at Li Yidao.
“Back then, your father saw some things and made some arrangements that allowed the Huangpu family to prosper for thirty years. But at that time, he said that borrowed things would always need to be returned. Thirty years later, he would come to help me, but at a price…”
At this point, Huangpu Qi’s lips curved into a slight smile as he looked at Li Yidao.
“You already saw the price, Did you?”
Li Yidao remained silent.
But his silence was an implicit acknowledgment.
He had already seen the price.
And that price was Huangpu Qi’s life!
No wonder when Li Yidao first saw Huangpu Qi, the system prompted a message.
And the cause of death was “life span exhausted”!
That was exactly why!
Thirty years ago, Huangpu Qi paid with his own life span to set up their ancestral grave here to ensure the prosperity of his family for thirty years!
And now, thirty years later, it was time for him to pay the price, and it was also the time when their ancestral grave needed to be relocated!
Otherwise…
The following price would be unbearable for the Huangpu family!
“My time is running out, and your father has already arranged everything here.”
“You don’t need to do anything. The price has already been paid, so there won’t be any accidents.
“I called you here only to ask for your help in selecting a new location with good Feng Shui, a place that can ensure the safety and well-being of my family’s descendants.”
“These thirty years have been tiring…”
At this moment, Huangpu Qi appeared desolate, much like the old man with fading vitality.
Huangpu Shengyun, who stood beside him, listened to his grandfather’s explanation, his eyes filled with confusion.
Clearly, he had no idea about all of this.
In fact, if it weren’t for Li Yidao having the system and the prompt that revealed Huangpu Qi’s limited time left, he might not have understood what Huangpu Qi was talking about.
Even if he had a special ability to perceive certain things, he couldn’t connect all these dots.
After all, this matter was just too bizarre!
And there was another point…
Was his father really just an ordinary funeral shop owner?
There were things that exceeded his imagination!
Li Yidao was about to follow Huangpu Qi’s instructions, not paying attention to anything else. He wanted to quickly find a new location with good Feng Shui to move the ancestral grave.
Suddenly!
He felt a chill all over his body!
In the area of the stone tablet in front of them, a giant python appeared out of nowhere!
It opened its blood-filled mouth and pounced toward them fiercely!
