After staying with Second Master for a few days, Hu Ma gradually learned about the Cui Family's affairs.
This time, the matter concerning Grandma Cui went against a major taboo. Even the Old Clan Chief, who was usually good-natured, was uncharacteristically furious and adamantly refused to allow the Cui family's deceased to enter the old fire pit.
Firstly, he considered their evil skills harmful and believed they must be severely punished. Secondly, they had died from the backlash of these evil skills. This classified their deaths as unclean, and sending them into the old fire pit might also affect the ancestors.
Even though the Cui family had many uncles and brothers, they didn't dare to openly oppose the village on such matters. Eventually, they could only place Grandma Cui and the first four sons into thin coffins, find a few people to carry them, and bury them in the forest to settle the matter.
