Out of compassion, local villagers gave the remains a communal burial where the victims were killed. Later, Yang You-wang, Lin Ah-chiu, and other villagers from elsewhere in Pingtung County transferred the remains to a new grave in Tungpu Village to make sure that they received proper attention. Generations of the Lin family have paid their respects at the gravesite every year since then.
當時的鄉民為憐憫這些異國孤魂，將其合葬，起初葬在事件現場雙溪口的幾處，後來屏東縣民楊友旺、林阿九等人，為憐憫他們得不到充分的祭拜，因此建造新墳，遷葬於統埔村，此後林家子孫年年為這座墳墓舉行祭祀，一直持續至今。
