Chapter 204: Chapter 201: The Whole Family is Being Watched

It seemed the ghost had hidden early inside the locust tree, waiting for Wang Shuangwei’s grandfather to come before appearing and killing him.

During the process of death, he fell into the rice field!

If that was indeed the case, then the ghost was purposely targeting them.

There were many people in the village, yet the ghost did not harm anyone else but focused solely on the Wang family. Why? Could it be because that old, long-lived woman held a grudge against Wang Shuangwei for stealing the Ginsengfruit, and thus summoned a ghost for revenge?

Qin Zhao felt that things were not that simple.

She left a mark here at the locust tree before she left.

Then she and Chu Yan returned to Wang Shuangwei’s house, only to hear the ongoing cries.

"Third brother! Dad! Wake up and look at me!"

"What kind of sins have we committed! Does heaven not want our family to live?"

"Wuu wuu wuu, Grandpa, Grandpa wake up!"

The members of Wang Shuangwei’s family were overcome with grief, and the neighboring villagers all looked on with somber faces.

As for Wang Shuangwei, he was sitting alone in his uncle’s room.

His face was as pale as death, and the words Qin Zhao had spoken kept flashing through his mind.

He felt both angry and a bit scared.

Could it be that his grandfather and uncle’s deaths were really because of the Ginsengfruit? He had stolen the Ginsengfruit, and everyone in the family had eaten it; wouldn’t they all be in danger in the future?

Thinking this, Wang Shuangwei shuddered, his lips trembling.

He looked toward the door, just in time to see Qin Zhao and Chu Yan walking in.

Wang Shuangwei rushed over and asked Qin Zhao in a panicked voice, "Do you know what’s happening? Please save me! I won’t dare to steal again! If you can save me and my family, I’ll turn myself in at the police station!"

After speaking, Wang Shuangwei even attempted to kneel before Qin Zhao.

He was so anxious that tears were nearly spilling from his eyes, not having thought that his moment of greed could bring such calamity to his family and lead to their successive deaths. Even he might die!

"Get up, I need to understand the situation first."

Qin Zhao did not let him kneel and, seeing the crowd in the courtyard, she first entered the house.

Wang Shuangwei followed nervously, "You could tell the difference in the Ginsengfruit, so you should be able to resolve this matter, right? How exactly did my uncle and grandfather die?"

"It was definitely the ghost that killed them, how else could they have died?"

Qin Zhao said lightly, causing Wang Shuangwei’s legs to go weak, feeling as if something were staring at him from behind, making his scalp tingle and his body break out in cold sweat.

Chu Yan also spoke, "The injuries from your grandfather’s fall were clearly not fatal. And your uncle had no injuries on him; he likely died from extreme fright.

I’m a doctor, I am clear about this."

"Why, why would he want to harm us? My family members are all honest farmers, it was only me who had some small schemes and did something wrong. But, I didn’t harm anyone!"

"Because you stole the Ginsengfruit, who else is there to blame?"

"You mean, that old woman deliberately summoned a ghost to harm us?"

Wang Shuangwei was seething with anger, he paced around the room, then grabbed a hoe.

"I’m going to find her and settle this! Make her pay with her life!"

Qin Zhao stood with her arms crossed, watching him coolly.

"Are you sure?"

Wang Shuangwei’s expression stiffened, and he stopped in his tracks, "Aren’t you coming with me? You need to settle this matter too, I’m scared she might really summon ghosts, I don’t dare to go alone."

"I’m afraid you won’t find her if you go now."

Qin Zhao still went with Wang Shuangwei, but sure enough, there was no one at home!

However, Qin Zhao was not in a hurry.

Given the ghost’s modus operandi, she guessed it would harm people again. And the targets would be the Wang family members, or rather, those who had eaten the Ginsengfruit.

Qin Zhao was certain because she sensed the energy from the Ginsengfruit was similar to the yin energy inside the locust tree, both accompanied by a strong scent of blood.

This indicated that he not only enjoyed killing people but also relished drinking fresh blood.

When they returned to Wang Shuangwei’s home, the villagers had all left, leaving only family members.

Qin Zhao glanced at the two corpses on the ground and said to Wang Shuangwei, "Talk to your parents about this. I can help you catch the ghost, but I’ll need your cooperation."

"Okay, I’ll tell them now!"

Wang Shuangwei turned and walked a few steps away, then came back to ask her.

"Are you a professional ghost catcher?"

"Yes, I knew there was a problem with your fruit back in the city."

Wang Shuangwei sighed in relief and hurried to inform his family.

Hopefully, this person could really save their lives!

After he briefly explained the situation, Qin Zhao then entered the house.

The Wang family members had tear stains of grief on their faces, and when they learned that these events were caused by a ghost, they huddled together in fear.

"Is there really a ghost in our house?"

Wang Shuangwei’s mother asked cautiously.

"Not now, but later, who knows."

Qin Zhao scanned them and asked, "Did you all eat the Ginsengfruit?"

"Yes," Wang Shuangwei replied with a bitter smile. "They all have."

"Then today, no one should go outside. Everyone stay at home. If you must go out and something dangerous happens, it will have nothing to do with me, and I won’t be able to save you."

"But... the deceased need their funeral, I need to go buy coffins and such."

"Don’t buy them for now. We can wait a little bit."

Qin Zhao took out a prepared vermillion pen from her backpack.

She used the vermillion to draw bloody talismans on the windows and door panels of the room, and placed an Evil Exorcism Charm on each of the four walls.

"These can prevent ghosts from entering. Don’t leave this room," she commanded.

Qin Zhao turned to look at the others, her expression stern. "As I said, if you leave this room and something happens to you, don’t blame anyone else."

They nodded repeatedly, "Understood."

When it was time for the ghost to appear, Qin Zhao would be busy dealing with it and would hardly be able to look out for them.

If they ran around chaotically, Qin Zhao certainly wouldn’t come to their rescue.

After giving these instructions, Qin Zhao cast a spell, and all the talismans and charms in the room disappeared, only to reveal themselves and function when the ghost appeared.

Seeing the golden light glyphs flash in her hands, the others were utterly stunned.

Wang Shuangwei watched her intently, almost seeing Qin Zhao as a lifeline.

The two bodies were still in the courtyard, and as it was autumn, leaving them out overnight wouldn’t cause any smell.

However, it was currently the afternoon, and the sunlight was still quite strong.

Qin Zhao found two straw mats to cover the bodies.

She then saw some steamed buns in the Wang family’s kitchen and brought some to the family, as they couldn’t leave the room and didn’t have much to eat.

The remaining Wang family members were Wang Shuangwei’s parents and his wife, making four people in the room.

Wang Shuangwei had his mother and wife rest on the bed, while he and his father sat at the table with worried expressions.

As for Qin Zhao and Chu Yan, they were in the neighboring woodshed.

The two didn’t show themselves directly to avoid alerting the Ghost and having it run away prematurely.

Everything was ready.

As darkness fell, they quietly waited for that guy to fall into the trap.
