Chapter 247 Opening the Coffin

I remembered that it was only the two of them who guarded Gao Bo's body, and I said, "Gao Bo's death was bizarre. Did anything happen when you were guarding the body?" Gao Bo's wife glanced at Chu Heng and said, "Chu Heng."

Heng, has something happened to you?" I heard what the woman meant, could it be that Chu Heng was the only one on the day of the wake?

After I inquired, it turned out that it was Chu Heng who was guarding the spirit afterwards. I was dumbfounded. Was it because Chu Heng was very courageous, or was it because Gao Bo's wife was too ignorant? During the vigil, the closest relatives were not around, but instead asked for help.

An outsider comes.

After hearing this, Chu Heng asked, "What happened?" At this point, Chu Heng's face showed some embarrassment. He said, "I accidentally fell asleep that night, but I didn't encounter anything strange.

matter."

Hearing what Chu Heng said, I felt a sense of emotion in my heart. This person was either very crazy or very brave. He could actually fall asleep while watching the funeral alone. However, Chu Heng's voice changed and he said, "But when you asked me this, I remembered it."

, it seems that I heard a strange sound that night, the sound was like the friction of wood, but the sound was very small, it only rang a few times, I was very sleepy, so I ignored it. "

What does the sound of wood rubbing against each other mean? I exchanged glances with the master, and the master shook his head and said he didn't know.

It was getting darker and darker, so Gao Bo's wife cooked some food for us, and then the master sent Gao Bo's wife to prepare some things for later use.

Not to mention the incense and paper money, the master also asked Gao Bo's wife to find Gao Bo's clothes when he was alive. The master used wooden sticks to support the clothes, and then put on a hat. From a distance, it looked like a human being.

Usually, this thing is placed behind Gao Bo's coffin. Then the master asked Gao Bo's wife to find some fire paper, and then asked her: "Can you cut paper figures?"

After hearing this, Gao Bo's wife shook her head and said, "No, I haven't learned it before." The master said, "That's okay. You cut out the shape of a small paper man on this fire paper, and then find one at your house.

The big cloth can also be cut into human shapes. As long as it has that shape, remember, you can only use one knife to cut these small paper figures and cloth figures. If there are more, you have to cut them again."

Although the two of them didn't know what the master was doing, seeing that the master seemed to have some real skills, Gao Bo's wife immediately took action. As for Chu Heng, the master asked him to get some pot ash from under the stove and put it in the small

In a bowl.

The master waited until Chu Heng finished, and then sent him to find a big rooster. After everything was ready, the master asked Rabbit and I to move out the Eight Immortals table of this family, put it in front of the coffin, and then put a

Take the incense burner.

Time passed bit by bit, and slowly the time was almost midnight. At this time, it was obvious that the weather was getting colder and colder. This coldness was not only the air-conditioning in the weather, but also the kind of coldness that came from the depths of the soul.

Chills.

Counting the time, this is the third day after Gao Bo's death. There is a saying in the countryside: Three days after death, all relatives will not cry; three days without burial, all relatives will suffer. It means that within three days of death, all relatives will suffer.

He must be buried in peace. In that case, the dead person will generally not look for relatives.

But if it is not buried for three days, then the dead person will miss his own body and refuse to fall into reincarnation. In the end, he will become the kind of lonely ghost wandering in the world.

At that time, the dead person has no consciousness. It doesn't matter if you are a relative or not, as long as he meets you, he will follow you.

The words are a bit far-fetched. The hour is coming. There were still some chickens crowing and dogs barking in this town. With the arrival of the hour, all the sounds stopped. A group of us stood in front of the Eight Immortals Table, and behind it was the

You may not notice anything about the coffin during the day, but at night when the negative energy is at its strongest, I feel a little wary in my heart. It’s not that I’m afraid of the people or ghosts inside, but the environment.

What is scary is often not the thing itself, but the environment in which the thing is located.

By the way, when I felt a little uncomfortable, let alone Gao Bo's wife. If Chu Heng hadn't been there to support her, she would have been unable to stand long ago. Her children were killed by us in Tianyi and Hei.

After sending them to the house to sleep, the master calculated the time and felt that it was almost done. He took out two yellow charms and handed them to Chu Heng and Gao Bo's wife, asking them to keep them close to their bodies.

There is no one keeping watch here, but there is a large floor clock in Gao Bo's house, which strikes eleven times to indicate midnight.

When the time comes, the master grabs a handful of the incense on the table of the Eight Immortals, puts it between his eyebrows and prays a few words, puts the incense out of the table, then picks up the matches on the table, and wants to light a fire. When the master wants to light a fire,

, a gust of wind came from nowhere, and the wind suddenly came out and blew out the match that the master had just struck.

I was a little surprised and opened my left eye to see what was causing this, but after a few glances, I didn't find anything else. Could it really be natural weather?

The master threw the extinguished matchstick in his hand on the ground, then took out another match and struck it with a squeaking sound. The red flame was swaying. This time, it was struck, but before the master could move the match to the

On top of the incense, this time the match went out for no apparent reason.

This went on for several times, and even Chu Heng and Gao Bo's wives, who were very nervous, could tell that something was wrong. Chu Heng swallowed and spat and said, "It's such a strong wind." After hearing what he said, I felt in my heart

If you have the urge to laugh, you are really telling lies with your eyes wide open. Where is the wind?

But now I can't see what is causing the trouble with my ghost eyes. Things are a bit difficult to solve. I try again. The match in the master's hand goes out again. This time the master throws the matchstick in his hand and points it at me.

He started to curse loudly: "Qin Guan, if you brag again, I will get angry with you!"

I was startled when the master scolded me. I didn't brag. When I wanted to refute the master, I saw the master winking at me, as if he was telling me something. I wisely closed my mouth. Strangely enough, the master

After this scolding, the match actually lit, and the handful of incense was also lit.

The master held the incense, murmured some words, took out the soul-calling bell from the treasure bag, and began to circle around the coffin parked in the yard. The master turned three times forward and three times backward, stepping on the bell with his feet.

It is the Seven-Star Tiangang Step.

When Chu Heng and Gao Bo's wife saw the master circling the coffin several times like a dancing master in the countryside, they suddenly became more convinced of the master.

After the master finished turning, he put the incense into the incense burner, bowed three times to the incense burner, and then placed the incense burner on the coffin. I don't know why the master made such a complicated ceremony this time.

, when we were robbing tombs in the past, we would open the rice dumplings when we saw them, and beat anyone who disobeyed. How come we are now in such trouble?

In fact, this is what I don’t understand. Most of what I see in ancient tombs are corpses possessed by evil spirits. Those things are tangible things. If you kill them, you will be done with them. But for such ghostly and ghostly things,

Qi and luck are involved in the mystery. We may be able to save or eliminate this ghost, but we cannot escape the destiny. Therefore, there are many fortune tellers or Taoist priests in the world, but none of them have a happy ending.

.

In one sentence, what is owed must be paid back. The master's ritual, which is similar to dancing with the gods, is to avoid the inevitable cause and effect and minimize the final retribution.

The master placed the incense burner on the coffin, grabbed a handful of paper money, and scattered it around, chanting that the souls of the dead in all directions can move easily, and that the yin and yang will not interfere with each other. As the master scattered the paper money, I could clearly see

Several ghosts were born on the ground in the courtyard. These ghosts were fighting for the paper money scattered by the master. When it fell into the eyes of Chu Heng and the others, a whirlwind suddenly blew up in the ground and blew away the paper money that fell to the ground.

stand up.

After all these lonely ghosts were fighting for it, the master said to me and Zou Yang: "You two help me open the coffin. Don't take it lightly." I knew that the master was warning me. He was afraid that I would be arrogant and arrogant.

The boat capsized in the gutter.

The coffin has been nailed. If you want to open the coffin, you need to use a claw hammer to hook the nail cap and then pry it up. However, each of the large nails sealing the coffin is more than ten centimeters long. Even with a claw hammer, it is extremely difficult to open the coffin.

Not easy to pry open.

Just when the two of us were prying the coffin from here, I suddenly heard a sound of wood rubbing together. The sound was stubborn and stubborn, as if it was coming from the coffin under my hand. When Chu Heng heard the sound, his face immediately changed.

After realizing it, he said: "That's the sound, actually...it came from the coffin!"

Fear is contagious. The four of us haven't felt anything yet. After all, we have seen this kind of thing a lot. But when Gao Bo's wife saw this posture, her eyelids rolled up and she was about to faint again. Rabbit quickly supported her.

, said: "It's okay, don't be afraid." At this time, he held the little paper man in his hand and said to the rabbit: "Help her into the house, there is nothing wrong with her here."

When Gao Bo's wife heard what the master said, it was as if she had heard of the amnesty. Without the help of a rabbit, she got into the main room and looked towards the yard through the window on the door.

The master said to the two of us: "Don't stop, open the coffin quickly!"

The two of us saw that the sound of the wood rubbing in the coffin disappeared, and the movements in our hands continued. Although it was difficult to pry open the thing, Zou Yang and I gradually pulled out the nail, and now we are also pulling it out.

Got a seven, seven or eight.

There are four coffin nails on it now. We didn't pull them out one by one. These four nails need to be pulled out at the same time. As for why, I don't know. Anyway, that's what the master ordered.

The master said to himself: "The coffin is about to be opened, why haven't you come yet?"
