The next morning, we contacted Uncle Wang to visit the carving factory, planning to leave immediately after taking the footage.

Uncle Wang was still enthusiastic and even invited us to his house.

Since we had already turned him down once last night, it would be rude to refuse again, so we followed him to his house.

Uncle Wang's family was quite large. As soon as we entered, Uncle Wang's wife came out with five children to greet us. Uncle Wang lovingly introduced us to his family members.

We hadn't brought any gifts, so we awkwardly handed over a few hundred yuan as a red envelope.

Uncle Wang firmly declined and asked his wife to bring out the New Year's meat to entertain us.

As we entered the house, it was a similar layout to Bai Sanshui's house but much cleaner and cozier. Moreover, there was a wooden statue on the table in the middle room.

Because of what happened last night, I couldn't control my expression and my face turned rigid upon seeing the wooden statue.

Uncle Wang obviously misunderstood and quickly explained, "The one in our house is not for children who've passed away."

Instinctively, I nodded, and he continued, "This one is for health. I drink a lot, so my liver isn't very good."

I could only respond, "So there are different kinds."

"Of course there are. His is for summoning souls, the kind with an open mouth. For having children, it's the one with a big belly. For healing, it's the one with open eyes."

I thought about Bai Sanshui's house and remembered it seemed to have all three, piquing my curiosity.

"Bai Sanshui's house seems to have all of them. Is he asking for everything?"

"Huh?" Uncle Wang's smile froze on his face, "All of them?"

"Yes, all of them." Saying that, I was about to show him the video on the camera.

"Don't show me, don't show me. That Bai Sanshui is really messed up."

"Does it have some special meaning?" My journalist instincts urged me to keep asking.

Uncle Wang didn't want to answer, "Talking about this is just for peace of mind. Let's eat, let's eat."

The photographer, fearing I would ask something inappropriate, quickly interrupted, "Yes, just for peace of mind. My back isn't doing too well either. How do I get one of these? I want one too."

Uncle Wang perked up again upon hearing this, "It's really effective. You need to find a spiritual child, one who serves the Lady Ma Mu."

"A spiritual child?"

"Yes, Li Yaozu, the one who is locked up."
