Chapter 603: Chapter 603: Be Careful When Driving on Tomb Sweeping Day_1

As they spoke, the scandalous couple quickly got into a red Ferrari.

When the Ferrari drove past Ye Xiao, three pale hands stretched out from the passenger seat, waving at you. You waved back and said with a grin, "Have fun, enjoy yourselves..."

Seeing this, your mother couldn’t help but scold you, "As a Disciple of the Taoist School, ridding the world of evil is your duty. Why then are you encouraging such demonic spirits?"

"Oh, my dear mother, please, could you not speak in such a stiff manner?" You turned around with a bit of a headache and said to your mother in the back seat, "That couple knew that this is a very special time, and yet they have the nerve to run to the cemetery to take photos. They’re practically inviting ghosts. Besides, although I know some simple Taoist techniques, I am not part of the Taoist sect. Those nonsensical rules don’t apply to me."

Your mother wanted to say something else, but then she stopped herself, "Never mind, some things you don’t need to know right now. After you meet your grandmother tomorrow, she should tell you."

Upon hearing the implication in her words, you immediately asked, "What’s that about?"

"Go and ask your grandmother. I don’t want to be scolded for being too talkative," your mother replied with a slight pout, turning towards Zhao’er who was sitting in the front passenger seat, "Zhao’er, let me tell you, being a daughter-in-law is the toughest role under the heavens."

Zhao’er tilted her head slightly, clearly not understanding the meaning behind her mother’s words.

"But rest assured, Zhao’er, I am the most gentle, kindest, and considerate mother-in-law in the whole wide world. I will always treat you as if you were my own daughter," she continued.

"Mhm," Zhao’er said.

Although she didn’t quite grasp what your mother was talking about, Zhao’er still obediently nodded her head.

Being satisfied, your mother said, "Good, that’s my wonderful daughter-in-law." Then she turned her head around sharply and glared at you fiercely, "What are you staring at! Drive faster, what time do you think it is? We’ll miss the plane if we’re late."

"Plane? What plane are we catching?"

As soon as you asked, your mother took out three plane tickets from her exquisite crocodile leather bag and handed them to you.

Upon examining them, you saw that they bore the names of you, Zhao’er, and Wu Qiyi. The departure time was four o’clock in the afternoon, and the destination was Minnan Putian.

"Wasn’t it supposed to be tomorrow?"

"The elderly lady is in a hurry, and besides, after living with her for more than twenty years, no one understands her temperament better than your dear mother. When she says tomorrow, she means that you should take Zhao’er and Little Yun to Chaotian Village by tomorrow. If you fly tomorrow, do you think you’ll make it to Chaotian Village that same tomorrow?"

After she explained, you finally realized the issue.

Chaotian Village is located in the depths of Putian’s mountains, far from the city. Not only is the journey a long one, but the latter half through the mountains is extremely difficult to traverse and time-consuming.

However, the car had only been on the road for about ten minutes when you discovered that there was a traffic jam ahead.

"Why have we stopped?"

"There’s a traffic jam up ahead."

"Why would there be a jam all of a sudden?"

"I don’t know, I’ll go check it out."

The cars on the road were jammed tight, and you noticed many drivers had gotten out of their cars, gathering in small groups as if they were discussing something, so you opened your door and hopped out.

You asked a young man walking towards you, "Hey, Brother, what happened up ahead?"

The young man sighed lightly and said, "At this time, it’s peak period for visiting graves, so it’s inevitable that the narrow road would get clogged. Everything was fine at first, but for some reason, the driver of a Mercedes SUV went crazy, slammed on the gas, and charged down a steep slope! He hit a family who were cleaning a grave and sent them flying, then crashed into four more cars... Ah, I heard that two people are already dead, and that Mercedes driver actually fled the scene."

The young man shook his head, lamenting as he walked away, "Even if something had latched onto that driver, that family and the people in those cars were innocent, right? Sigh..."

Watching the young man leave, you stood by the side of the road, frowning. Turning back to your car, you said to your mother inside, "Mom, I’m going to check it out. You take over driving; the traffic police should be here soon."

"Mm."

Due to the roadblock, a large number of vehicles were stuck, and coupled with the special dates these past days, it was natural for people’s conversations to drift towards the topic of "ghosts."

Bystander A: "Hey, I just heard that when the Mercedes came up, it was originally driven by a woman, but for some reason, it became a man driving when the car went down."

Bystander B: "What’s so strange about that? It must have been a driver switch."

Bystander A: "There was only one person in the car, so how could they switch?"

Bystander B: "Only one person?"

Bystander A: "Right, I heard it from a friend. He saw the woman get out of the car and cry at a gravestone for a while before driving off. At that time, he saw it clearly; there was only that female driver in the Mercedes. But somehow, when the car went down, it was a man driving. Now, isn’t that just too bizarre?"

Bystander C: "Haven’t you thought about what time it is now? Though today is not Qingming, it’s just a day away. If it were somewhere else, that’d be one thing, but it happened right here in this graveyard. It’s not so strange for such a thing to happen. I reckon that woman might have been possessed."

Bystander A and Bystander B exchanged glances, feeling a chill run down their spines: "That can’t be, can it?"

Bystander C: "Why not? This place always has some incidents every Qingming Festival; it’s just that what happened this year is more serious than usual. After all, four people died at once; that’s bound to get attention."

"Let’s, let’s leave early then. You hadn’t mentioned it and it was fine, but now that you say it, I also feel there’s something ominous about this place."

...

As you walked along, there were many such conversations, mostly along similar lines.

The accident scene was located at a turn on a downhill slope, with only a drainage ditch separating the road from the cemetery.

There was no need to ask others; walking to a large tree nearby, you placed your hand on the trunk, and as the Sen Luo Curse Mark faintly flickered, the events of that moment appeared in your mind.

At the time, a family of four was slowly walking by the roadside. About five or six meters ahead of them was the turn, and less than a meter across the drainage ditch was the cemetery, where another family was preparing offerings such as fruits to worship their ancestors.

Then, a black Mercedes SUV came charging up from the steep slope behind, and from this angle, the person driving inside was indeed a man.

The speed of the black Mercedes SUV was not fast at first, but for some reason, when it was less than two meters away from the walking family, the car suddenly accelerated and rammed straight into the family of four!
