My master is invincible

Chapter 191 Yang Coffin (44)

Wearing sackcloth and filial piety is a lot of attention. Many people tend to fall into a misunderstanding. At a glance, they are all wearing sackcloth and filial piety. They think that the white hemp on the descendants is the same. This is wrong. , also need to follow the rules.

During the period of the Three Kingdoms, a system called five clothes was established. According to the difference in blood relationship, five different mourning clothes were stipulated, namely, cut off, Qi down, great merit, minor merit and hemp, the thickness of clothing and the production strategy. slidely different.

According to the pre-established rules, the closer the descendants are to the deceased, the heavier the mourning clothes; the more distant the blood relationship, the lighter the mourning clothes.

Because making the five clothes is too cumbersome, some of the deceased died more quickly, and there was not so much time to prepare the five clothes, and the five clothes were gradually replaced by white cloth.

Today, wearing hemp and mourning is no longer true wearing hemp and mourning. Instead, a piece of white cloth is wrapped around the head, and a long piece of white cloth is left behind, which is a bit like a cloak, and hemp is no longer worn on the body, but rather It is tied around the waist with a thin piece of hemp. (White cloth: Many stores say their white cloth is white hemp, but it is actually white gauze.)
Of course, this does not mean that the rules handed down by the ancestors have been forgotten, and the white cloth is used instead of the five clothes to still divide the closeness, and the way to distinguish closeness is the white cloth hanging behind the back. The white cloth of the second son and eldest grandson is six feet three, the daughter and daughter-in-law are five feet seven, relatives such as nephews and nephews, and whether the deceased is male or female, the scales are somewhat different.

The deceased on our side was a woman, her nephew was six feet two, and her nephew was five feet four.As a male, the nephew is six feet two, the nephew is five feet four, and the remaining relatives are four feet eight.

There are so many rules here that I can't explain them clearly for a while. They can be roughly divided into five types: seven feet, six feet three, five feet seven, five feet four, and four feet eight.

And the white cloth of our Eight Immortals is two feet, and the white cloth of the people who eat banquets in the same village is three feet, these two kinds are not within the scope of those five kinds.

Some people must ask why the white cloth of the Eight Immortals is so short. To be honest, I don’t know. , to show respect for the dead.

Closer to home, I took a general look at the mourning clothes of those people. Liu Kai divided the deceased's sons and daughters into the kind of relatives whose daughters were, and the length of the white cloth was just right.

Just as I was about to look back, a figure appeared in my line of sight. I saw that person was wearing a Taoist robe with gold and silver threads, a black gold-rimmed gossip hat on his head, a pair of cyan gold-rimmed gossip shoes, and a gossip-trimmed gossip across his left shoulder. Bag, 34 years old, was walking towards Boss Yu.

When I saw this outfit, my heart tightened. This person should be capable, otherwise, I would not dare to dress like this. You must know that Taoist priests are very particular about clothing. Few people dare to wear Taoist robes like this, unless they are The man doesn't want to live anymore.

I don't know what's going on, the man seemed to notice that I was staring at him, stopped the script, turned his head and glanced at me, frowned, didn't say anything, and walked towards Boss Yu who was kneeling on the ground , Fu Er said a few words.

Due to the distance, I couldn't hear what they were saying, so I saw Boss Yu stand up suddenly, looked at the man with a gloomy face, and opened his mouth. Judging from the shape of his mouth, it should be, "You said Really?"

The man nodded, reached out and pointed to the coffin, and then pointed to Liu Kai.

Seeing this, I felt a cold sweat break out on my back. The man's intention was obvious, to tell Boss Yu that there was something under the coffin, and someone wanted to harm Liu Kai.

Fatty Guo next to me seemed to notice something was wrong with me, he poked me with his hand and asked, "Ninth brother, are you alright?"

I shook my head and said, "It's okay!"

"Are you all right?" He asked suspiciously, with some disbelief in his eyes.

I nodded and didn't speak.

"Then why are you holding my hand?" He raised his hand suddenly, and I realized that he was holding Fatty Guo's hand at some point.

I smiled awkwardly at him and said, "Don't talk about this, let's go first!"

"Why?" Stuttered from the side and asked.

When asked by him, I didn't know how to answer, so I just found a reason and prepared to leave here.

However, fate seemed to play a trick on me. Just when I was about to leave, Liu Kai appeared. He jumped onto the stage next to the mourning hall with a microphone in his hand, and with a sullen face, he went down the stage and gave up.

With such a simple action, the originally bustling scene became completely silent in an instant.

He glanced at the audience and said, "It's 7:45 now, and there are still 15 minutes to open the road. Before that, I will delay the host's house for a little time to tell you a personal matter. Just now, Yu The feng shui master next to the boss told me that someone pasted seven pieces of red paper on the bottom of the coffin of the deceased, with my name written on it. You may not know what it means to paste the red paper on the bottom of the coffin. Let me tell you, as long as this opens the way As soon as the gong sounds, I, Liu Kai, will die immediately."

Speaking of this, he took out a piece of red paper and shook it, showing a ferocious face, and roared, "I have only offended Chen Jiu from Aozi Village recently, and the person who posted the red paper is definitely that bastard Chen Jiu, no one!" Thinking of this bastard disregarding the morality of the Eight Immortals, he tampered with the coffin and tried to kill me. Whoever invited Chen Jiu to do the funeral, it is best to burn some yellow paper to apologize to the ancestors after returning home. I have tampered with it, which will affect the fate of future generations, and people may die. Although I, Liu Kai, charge expensive fees, I will never tamper with the coffin and do things like cut off children and grandchildren. Who will be invited to do funerals in the future? Figure it out."

After finishing speaking, Liu Kai stared at the audience for a while, as if he was looking for me, and said angrily: "Chen Jiu, I know you are here, if you are a man, get out, be brave, don't hide in the crowd like a shrunken turtle In the middle, if you don’t come out today and give me an explanation, after this funeral, don’t blame me for going to Aozi Village to trouble your parents.”

As soon as Liu Kai finished speaking, I was stunned. I stood there for a long time, thinking of harming Liu Kai, but I didn’t expect that Liu Kai would push me to the edge of the cliff. If I don't handle it well, not only will I be stigmatized for the rest of my life, but even my parents will be implicated.

When I pasted the red paper, I only thought about harming Liu Kai, but never thought about the consequences. Now that I think about it, I was still young and energetic at the time, and I didn't think about the consequences at all.

"Ninth Brother, what the hell is going on here? How could you tamper with the coffin!" Fatty Guo stretched out his hand and poked me, asking nervously.

"Nothing!" I replied blankly, and after finishing speaking, I was about to walk towards the stage.

"Ninth brother, once you admit it, there will be no place for you in Dongxing Town in the future, let me go! No matter from which angle, I have the opportunity to post red paper, and it will not arouse Liu Kai's suspicion." Stammered He grabbed me and said lightly.
