Lin Shuo was so scared that he was shaking all over and stammering, "I never sleepwalked before. I sometimes have nightmares, but never for half a month straight."
"What's even scarier is that I heard my father's voice. It was so strange, like he wanted to kill me. He was full of hatred and crazy, and he kept yelling for my life."
"But when my father died, I was living in the school dormitory. I had no idea what happened."
Su Chen asked in a low voice: "Did anything happen on the day of the burial? Tell me in detail."
Lin Shuo clenched his fists, thinking carefully about what happened that day, and muttered, "Dad had a rather sinister expression when he died. Mom said she was worried he wouldn't be at peace, so she found a Taoist priest to exorcise the evil spirit."
"If I have to say something unusual, it's that my father's body hasn't reanimated. My family is well-off, so we bought a large plot of land in the mountains for my father's grave."
"On the day of the burial, the master said that children's blood can exorcise evil spirits and help my father become less obsessed. I didn't want to see him for the last time, so they let me bleed in the coffin..."
After Balabala finished speaking, the students around him gasped and said in disbelief, "No, classmate Lin, it's such a different era now, why don't you have cremation?"
Lin Shuo scratched his head and said timidly, "My mind is buzzing. My mother has the final say at home. If she says no cremation, then no cremation. I don't understand why."
One person said, "Your father's death couldn't be related to your mother, right? Normally, when a husband dies, they would look for a Taoist priest to exorcise the evil spirits."
"Did you see what was behind your father's coffin? Was there anything wrong with it? Were there any messy nails or talismans?"
"No, I'm sure there aren't any of those."
Su Chen stared at his face and said softly, "Write me your birth date and I will tell you your fortune."
Lin Shuo cooperated very well. After finishing his writing honestly, he waited quietly by the side.
Two minutes later, Su Chen looked at him with a complicated expression: "You'll know the problem with your family after you open the coffin. Find the person you trust most to open the coffin. As for your mother, there's no need to go."
"Take leave now and we'll go there immediately, otherwise you won't survive more than three days."
"...Wha, what? My dad wants to kill me."
"Come on, you'll understand when we get there and the museum opens."
Lin Shuo's face grew paler, and he called his second and third uncles with trembling hands. They had always been very good to him, and there had been no messy disputes over property after his father passed away.
To him, she was naturally a trustworthy person. After the call, her voice trembled slightly: "Su, classmate Su, you will go with me, right?"
Su Chen hummed, "Yes, the sooner we deal with it, the better. Your father has already turned into a fierce ghost. You can't afford to delay any longer. If you delay any longer, you will die within three days."
"Okay, classmate Su, you didn't let me tell my mother, is it because my father's death has something to do with her..."
"Shh, some things you will know once you see them."
Lin Shuo's eyes flashed with struggle and pain. He sniffed and said nothing more. He went straight to the counselor to ask for leave, and the two of them walked out of the school.
Two hours later, Su Chen's car arrived at the foot of the mountain. He got out of the car and looked at the lush green mountain. He said softly, "The scenery here is really nice. Is this the mountain your family bought?"
"Yes, our family started a separate family tree after our great-grandfather split from the family. Since then, we have accumulated a lot of family property over the generations."
"Later, we consulted a Taoist priest about the feng shui, and my great-grandfather bought this hill as the Lin family's burial site. This way, it would be easier to visit the graves, as we could check them all at once."
"Actually, there's another reason. My great-grandfather felt cremation wasn't an option. But if he didn't, no cemetery would be willing to accept it. It was more convenient for us to buy a mountain for our own family."
Su Chen pulled the corner of his mouth and whispered: "Well, your relatives are here, let's prepare to go up the mountain to open the museum."
Lin Shuo received a call: [Second Uncle, Third Uncle, we are at the foot of the mountain. Are you there yet?]
[We're here. It's right here in the pavilion. Come over here.]
After the two sides met, Uncle Lin II and Uncle Lin III looked at him with inquiring eyes and asked in confusion: "Xiao Shuo, what's the matter with you suddenly calling us here? What happened in the cemetery?"
Lin Shuo gave a bitter laugh and said helplessly, "Yes, I've been having nightmares since my father was buried. The master said that if I don't go up the mountain to open the academy, I won't live for more than three days."
"Uncle Two, Uncle Three, could you please come up the mountain with me so we can open the coffin and take a look?"
Uncle Lin frowned upon hearing this and scolded him, "Nonsense! Your father is already buried. If you open the coffin now and see a rotting corpse, how can you feel good about it?"
"Also, why didn't you call your mother? Did you have a fight with her or something?"
"...I don't want to call my mom. She's always on business trips and I can't get in touch with her. Even if I could, it's useless because she won't come."
He grew up with his grandparents. His mother didn't have a deep affection for him, but she was very caring towards his father, and they always had a good relationship.
Uncle Lin's eyes were filled with hostility: "Who are you? You persuaded my nephew to open a museum. Do you know that this is a great disrespect to the dead? I hope Xiao Shuo will be seriously injured."
"Tell me, can you bear this responsibility?"
Lin Shuo waved his hands when he heard this: "Second Uncle is not like that. I will ask Master Su for help."
