"Yes, it's here."
Lu Heng nodded.
"That should be Tea Mountain. Let's keep going,"
Ma Jian and the others climbed over Tea Mountain, steadily moving forward.
With the guidance of the black youth, they found the tiger-shaped stone smoothly.
"The Taoist priest mentioned before, the place where the body is buried is in these woods."
"There's also a big tree nearby with 'Liang loves Qing' carved on it, let's split up and look for it!"
Ma Jian looked around and said loudly.
The others nodded in agreement and entered the woods, searching for the tree with the carvings.
The livestream viewers' perspectives followed Ma Jian's phone as it wandered through the dark woods.
"Oh crap! The eerie night, silent and still, what if a ghost in a red dress suddenly appears...?"
"Oh god, stop! I can already imagine the scene!"
"A ghost? Is there something good about that?"
"If you've got guts, even ghost ladies have to take maternity leave!"
"As long as you're skilled, the ghost lady has to go to the maternity ward! If you're daring, she'll have to take two leaves!"
"Exactly, what's there to fear about ghosts? I'm more of a lustful ghost!"
"I'm a poor ghost! We're all ghosts, who's afraid of who?"
"666! Seeing these big brothers in our livestream room, even ghosts will run away scared."
"In my humble opinion, this really is a good place to bury a body, eerily quiet, full of yin energy!"
"The world is in chaos yet not in chaos, with war imminent, the brewing storm awakens the finest of zombies who've been sleeping for a hundred years, mysterious and unfathomable zombies..."
"Are you talking about the finest of zombies—Wang Jiangchen?"
"This environment is too scary! Luckily, everyone is with me!"
"Don't be afraid, we have the Taoist priest!"
"With the Taoist priest's abilities, subduing a few little ghosts is a piece of cake!"
As the viewers joked, someone in the woods suddenly shouted, "I found it! I found it!"
Hearing this, Ma Jian and the others moved towards that person.
"This tree has 'Liang loves Qing' carved on it!"
"This should be the tree."
The person pointed at the carvings with a flashlight, his face excited.
Ma Jian stepped forward for a look and confirmed it.
Then he asked Lu Heng, "Master, the burial site should be nearby, right?"
"That's correct!"
Lu Heng nodded, affirming, "You all can dig around here, you might find it."
"Alright, I'll set up the phone first, and then we'll all dig together!"
Ma Jian got right to work.
After fixing the phone to the tree, he immediately started digging with the others.
"Wow, I'm watching people dig live on a livestream!"
"I'm going to take a nap; wake me up when you find something."
"Buddha bless! Celestial Venerable bless! God bless!"
"Brother, aren't you mixing up your beliefs?"
"If I didn't know the backstory, I'd think someone was streaming a tomb robbery!"
"Haha, the atmosphere and scene really do seem like that."
"Brother Ma is quite daring; if they dig up the wrong person, that'll be hilarious!"
"If they really dig up the wrong person, it might be more work for the local police."
"The police are probably eager for you to bring more cases, to boost their case-solving rate."
Xiaoma and the others split up to dig but found nothing after a long while.
"Could we have the wrong spot?"
They stopped digging, breathing heavily.
But at that moment, the black youth suddenly shouted, "I think I found something!"
Hearing this, everyone gathered around.
Looking into the pit, they saw a silver-white plastic fragment appear before their eyes.
"This seems like a suitcase fragment..."
A breeze blew past, sending chills down their spines.
"Gulp!"
Ma Jian slowly swallowed.
Everyone around, including the black youth, seemed a bit at a loss.
Before finding anything, they hoped they could find Zhang Zitong's body and clear her name.
But now, having found something, a trace of fear crept in.
"Don't be afraid; we're here to seek justice for Xiaotong."
Seeing this, Ma Jian immediately encouraged everyone.
"Yeah, yeah, we're doing a good thing."
"If Xiaotong has a spirit in heaven, she'll surely protect us, not harm us."
The black youth echoed his sentiment.
Encouraged by the two of them, warmth slowly returned to the others, not as cold as before.
"Let's keep digging!"
"But be careful, don't disturb the scene."
Under Ma Jian's lead, they cautiously removed the surrounding soil.
Soon, a vintage, heavily damaged suitcase lay quietly in the pit.
"Let me take a look!"
Taking a deep breath, Ma Jian used a shovel to slowly pry open the suitcase.
As the suitcase's upper layer was lifted, what lay inside wasn't decayed flesh or any gruesome scene people imagined.
Instead, there lay a skeleton dressed in dark brown clothes and pants.
"Did Xiaotong wear these clothes before she disappeared?"
"I think so, I remember Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang mentioning it when they reported her missing."
"This skeleton is quite short, it should be Xiaotong."
"Where are the police? Aren't they here yet?"
"They should be arriving soon, right?"
Meanwhile, the entire livestream was like a bomb had exploded, stunning everyone watching.
"Oh crap, they really found it!"
"I can't handle it; I'm gonna have a heart attack."
"Amitabha... Celestial Venerable bless... Amen, amen..."
"Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony..."
"I'm on my knees, witnessing another miracle!"
"The Taoist is really amazing—like a cow that fell into a wine vat—drunk and awesome! The only pity is he can't figure out who the murderer is."
"I beg the Taoist to take me as a disciple!"
"Forget being a disciple, I'd even be willing to be the Flute-Blowing Boy if the Taoist needs one!"
On the other side, Ma Jian and the others dared not make any extraneous moves.
If they disturbed the scene, they'd end up in trouble.
"Master, is this Xiaotong's remains?"
After a deep breath, Ma Jian quietly asked.
"It's him..."
Before Lu Heng could finish, the livestream suddenly went dark.
"Due to the stream's alleged horror and gory content violating Douhu platform's rules, the streamer is required to make corrections within a time limit..."
Goodness, banned again!
Could be seven days this time.
Though not unjust, considering a body was shown.
Lu Heng seeing this, only chuckled helplessly.
"Let's call it a day."
Leaving those words, he chose to end the livestream.
The viewers were all left stunned.
How did it get banned again?
Although the broadcast showed bones, it wasn't as bad as the dance or secondary anime sections' suggestive content, right?
