folk legend

Chapter 109

Some women in the village are like this, and their thinking is very different from that of men.To use a simple analogy, such as the death of a chick, maybe she will be very sad.But she was not in a hurry or sad if she was going to die a big cow or something.Li Dewu's daughter-in-law is thinking like this now, and she can't tell the seriousness.

However, everyone didn't think deeply about Li Dewu's wife's words, because the weather was cold and the wind was blowing around them, and old Li Yu couldn't be found at this time.

"Don't be dazed. Hurry up and find the old man and see where he has gone? This old guy really has a way, just sit here and eat, and run around like nothing."

Jiang Liu said this to everyone, and at the same time to comfort himself, at this time, don't do anything else.Originally, the new grave was less than a year old, and the Soul Sealing Nail was nailed in, and the day of the burial was an unlucky day that happens once in ten years. With so many factors together, if something really happened, it would be difficult. done.Thinking of this, the little guy was also a little anxious.

Seeing the big guys scattered in all directions, Jiang Liu walked slowly to the coffin when he searched for Li Yu, and after taking a deep breath, bent his waist, raised his fingers, There was a light knock in the sky.

Immediately there was a muffled sound from Bang, and seeing no other response after a long time, Jiang Liu felt relieved, then squatted down in the middle of the coffin, put his hand on the coffin ceiling, and was about to move it away.

As a result, just after pressing on the coffin, before he could use any force, the coffin was slowly pulled back by itself.

Although Jiang Liu was quite courageous, in broad daylight, he was terrified by the coffin he was moving around. He didn't even stand up, but kept squatting, and jumped to the side as soon as his legs were exerted.

Turning around, after seeing clearly what was going on, Jiang Liu was both angry and wanted to laugh. It turned out that it was Dougen, who was holding the coffin back with both hands at the moment, because I was too concerned about the situation inside the coffin just now, so I didn't notice it. Go to the bean root next to the coffin.

Seeing Dougen's smirk, Jiang Liu was so angry that he couldn't say a word, he glanced at Dougen bitterly, and came to the coffin again.

At this time, other people scattered to look for Li Yu. There are only Dougen and Jiang Liu in the grave, and Li Dewu's wife is standing far away on the side of the grave.

Firstly, Li Dewu's daughter-in-law is timid, especially at this time, she dare not run around alone.Secondly, it was Jiang Liu who left her behind and asked her to burn the 99 ingots in front of the grave.

After all, this is something that disturbs the life of the dead. It is still necessary to burn the ingots in time, and use the money to stop the mouth of the dead, so as not to make it blame and make trouble.It seems that the rules of this world are the same as that of the world.That's why there is such a saying left behind, that money can turn ghosts around.

Besides, after the two young men worked together to drag the thick coffin sky aside, Jiang Liu was startled again when he saw the situation on the top of the coffin gang. The gap in the side of the coffin was broken in two.

The brand-new stubble, under the sun, glowed with a cold light, giving people a cold feeling. In such a situation, Ye Dougen couldn't help but put his hand into his clothes, hold it tightly with his five fingers and hide it in his bosom. on the handle of the knife.

The cracks of the coffin nails are obviously not made by manpower, let alone what manpower can do. This is what surprised Jiang Liu, because generally speaking, during the day, when the yang energy is strong, most people Sneaky dare not come out to make trouble.

Of course, this is only limited to general sneakiness, and there are also those who are high-spirited or resentful, and they don't want to stay at home during the day, and they will come out to wander around.

It is precisely because of this situation that the current Jiang Liu is not sure what the person in the coffin has become.So when he walked to the head of the coffin again, the young man was extra careful.

Walking slowly to the coffin, looking inside, I saw the female teacher inside, lying flat inside the coffin, the shroud on her body was wrinkled together, the thatch sheet on it was rolled up under her feet, and her face was full of ferocity. , It seems that there is so much hatred in life, it is unfinished.

However, it is not these things that make Jiang Liu feel particularly strange. According to common sense, the tongue of a hanged person will hang out for a long time. Jiang Liu has seen this situation several times when he was in Han's Wopu, but now The female teacher's tongue was only protruding a little from the edge of her lips, it didn't look like she had been hanged to death at all.

Seeing the appearance of the female teacher's corpse, Jiang Liu sighed inwardly, picked up the sheet from under his feet, gently covered the face of the corpse, and then called Dougan to bring the red cloth along the way.

After receiving the red cloth, Jiang Liu and Dougen pulled the four corners and tied the red cloth under the original cloth to cover the grave completely.

There is a saying about a shed made of two layers of cloth. The first layer is called covering the sky and covering the sun. Listening to this name, it means a bit sneaky, but it is actually true.

According to Mr. Yin Yang, the grave is the home of the deceased, and digging the grave is equivalent to demolishing other people's houses.Naturally, one has to be more careful when doing such a thing, not to offend all the gods and spirits, and to block it is to cover it up.As for why calico is used, do you need to ask?Naturally, it is because the calico is more beautiful.

The second layer of red cloth must be used when moving the grave.When digging the grave and opening the coffin, the corpse must be wrapped in red cloth immediately, and the corpse should not be exposed to sunlight, otherwise, it will be detrimental to the family members of the deceased.

But this time, Jiang Liu still wanted to find something on the corpse. It would be inconvenient to wrap the corpse with a red cloth, so Jiang Liu came up with such a workaround.

After tidying up, Jiang Liu explained to Li Dewu's daughter-in-law, telling her to kneel on the grave and start burning the yellow mounting paper, one sheet at a time, without stopping in between, and the fire should not be extinguished.

After finishing the order, Jiang Liu rolled up his arms and sleeves and started looking for the Soul Sealing Nail. This was the real purpose of opening the coffin this time.

Holding the coffin up, Jiang Liu found the one on his chest first, and put it flat against his clothes. He reached out to pick up the nail, only to find that the cinnabar red mark on the tip of the nail had turned black. Holding it in your hand, it gives people a gloomy feeling.

Jiang Liu didn't dare to hold this thing in his hand for too long, so he quickly took out a talisman from his bag, carefully wrapped the nails, put it in the bag, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

At that time, Mr. Yin and Yang in Longhua nailed the soul nail after the female teacher put on the shroud. In this way, it would be easier for Jiang Liu to find him.On the surface, you can see the exposed nail caps.

Facing the dead body of the female teacher, Jiang Liu only wanted to get things done quickly, and he didn't want to stay longer in this gloomy place.So after seeing the nails, Jiang Liu didn't count how many nails there were, and called Dougen again.

He took out a pair of pliers with yellow cloth wrapped around the handles from the yellow cloth bag, handed it to Dougen, then pointed to the obvious nail cap on the corpse, and said, "You come."

Dougen has great strength, so for pulling out nails, this guy is naturally needed.

Bean Root, who is tall and big, naturally does not lose his strength, but even so, because the nail was driven deep into the corpse, and he used a vise to clamp the nail cap, he had to use a lot of strength to pull a nail Nails pulled out.

After pulling it out, he glanced at the top of the nail, and hurriedly clamped it with pliers, stretched his arms long, and passed it towards Jiangliu.Seeing the traces of rotten meat on the nails, Jiang Liu was also disgusted, and hurriedly wrapped them with the prepared yellow paper talisman and put them in the bag.

Just like the first nail, Dougen began to carefully pull out the second nail. The two of them just kept silent, and they cooperated very well.

During this period, Jiang Liu followed Dougen closely, using a towel that had been prepared long ago to dry the fine sweat from Dougen's forehead.It is necessary to ensure that not a single drop of sweat falls on the body of the deceased.This is also a taboo of Mr. Yin Yang. Nothing that is on a living person can fall on a dead person.

In this way, it took the two of them about 10 minutes to remove all the visible nails from the female teacher's corpse.Then, Dou Gen hurriedly retreated a few steps, some distance away from the coffin, before he dared to take a big breath.

To be honest, when I got angry and didn't stop in the middle, it was really suffocating.

Li Dewu's daughter-in-law looked at the bean root and thought about it with her thighs, and knew that the two of them were done. Seeing the two who were about to leave the coffin, she was so frightened that she didn't care about burning them one by one. The yellow mounting papers that were put down were all put on the fire, and they didn't even look at them, they turned around and ran to the side.

Even Dougen, after pulling out the nails on the surface, hurried to the side, sat down on a relatively clean stone, bowed his head and retched.

In fact, fortunately, it's winter season now, if it were placed in summer, the rotten smell of the corpse would be able to smoke the bean root.

But even so, looking at the things brought out from the nail was enough to make this guy sick.

After resting for a while, when I thought it was time to end this matter, I suddenly heard Jiang Liu ask himself: "Dougen, did you check just now, how many nails did we pull out in total?"

"It seems...it seems to be fourteen." Dougen replied uncertainly.

"Are you sure?"

"I don't want to gnaw buttocks, if you want to gnaw, go and gnaw it yourself."

"Hehe, I'm not joking with you, think about it quickly."

"I finally took a break from the meeting, and you have something to do again, just take it out of your bag and check it carefully!"

"Ahem, I... don't I look disgusting?"

"Your uncle, count it yourself!"

Dougen no longer paid attention to Jiangliu, but picked up a straw, held it in his mouth, and turned his face to look aside.

Jiang Liu actually knew the number of nails, and the reason why he asked Dougen was mainly to verify. After confirming that there were fourteen nails in total, Jiang Liu felt suspicious.

Didn't that old Li Yu say that there were eighteen soul-suppressing nails at the beginning, why are there only fourteen now?Could it be that he remembered wrongly?
