Chapter 189 Yang Blood
Thinking of this, I thought of a method that is not a solution. I said this because I don’t know if this method will be useful, but now that life and death are at stake, I can only give it a try, try it Maybe there is a way to live, and if you don't try, you will die.I remembered the evil hand beads that my grandfather made for me. This thing seems to be ineffective for hard rice dumplings, but in the folks in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there is a custom of wearing Jianglongmu, which is called "Kaiyang". Dot the accessories with cockscomb blood, which is said to boost the magical power of Jianglongmu.

Rooster blood and black dog blood, in folklore, are the two magic weapons to exorcise evil spirits, because the rooster will climb to a high place to crow and bathe in the first sunlight when the yin and yang alternate. Therefore, the cockscomb blood of the big cock is extremely The blood of yang is said to be able to destroy yin qi and bring down corpses, that is, zongzi.As for the psychic power of a black dog, the effect of warding off evil is not as strong as that of a big rooster, but a living black dog can suppress ghosts. In the past, if the family dog ​​gave birth to puppies and the litter could not keep them, most people would kill them. Some puppies, but in comparison, black dogs tend to be survivors.

Of course I don’t have big cock and black dog blood at the moment, but I know that there are four kinds of things in a human body, which belong to extreme yin and extreme yang, respectively.As for why it is hair and armpit hair, it is very particular, so I won't show it for the time being, just talk about the blood on the tip of the tongue and the urine of a child.

Although I have always kept my body clean, I am already 28 years old. Boys peeed away from me many years ago, and it is useless to urinate now.The blood on the tip of the tongue, to be precise, is the blood of the heart, because in the traditional theory of the unity of man and nature, the tongue belongs to the heart, and the blood of the tongue belongs to the blood of the heart. When Taoists saw that they could not defeat the ghosts, they would bite the tip of their tongues and spray blood on the ghosts.

Although this is a bit exaggerated, it is not without reason. When I think of such a thing in a hurry, I can't help biting the tip of my tongue, ready to give it a go.After all, these are just my hearsay. I don’t know whether it is useful or not, but I know one thing, that is, according to the rules of the inverted fight, the corpse cannot be stained with the blood of the living. Zongzi made of rice, let alone live human blood, because it will be more vicious if it sees blood.

From this point of view, the folklore of spraying blood at rice dumplings is actually contrary to our rules of fighting against each other. I am trapped in a coffin at the moment, and I have nothing to do, so I have to go to the doctor in a hurry and try my luck up.Thinking of this, he made up his mind, bit the tip of his tongue, sucked a mouthful of blood and sprayed it out of his mouth.

Due to the lack of oxygen in the brain, the consciousness was chaotic, so when I bit my tongue, I didn't feel any pain, probably because of the lack of oxygen, the pain-sensing nerves were a little numb.After the mouthful of blood was sprayed out, the hand holding my neck was released immediately. I instinctively started to breathe, and immediately inhaled the poisonous gas again. up.

But I knew I couldn't waste time vomiting, so I turned over and sat up from the coffin.

Most people may think that it is impossible to sit up when the coffin is covered, but I am now in a Han material. Han material is the traditional coffin of the Han people. It is a Han material from the Qin and Han Dynasties. It is as tall as half a person, and it will not touch your head when you sit up.The current Manchu coffin, that is, the coffin with the arc top, replaced the Hancai after the Manchu entered the customs. It is relatively small, and people cannot sit up in it. '

I spit out this mouthful of blood, and it was a gamble, but I didn’t expect it to be really useful, so I can’t help but feel: The times are advancing, and we can’t rely on the old experience of our predecessors. We still have to be brave in innovation, no, no, The ancestors said that the zongzi should not be stained with human blood. I not only allowed it to be stained, but also frightened it away.

As soon as I sat up, I didn't dare to delay, and immediately used all my strength to push the coffin lid. This time, because I used my hands, the force was stronger than what I kicked with my feet before, but the strange thing is, The coffin lid did not move at all, as if a boulder had been pressed on it.My heart skipped a beat, and I said to myself: Could it be a ghost pressing the coffin?
Most people may have heard of the ghost press bed, but not the ghost press coffin.In the past, whenever something weird happened, people would think of ghosts and ghosts as the cause of trouble, and they would often invite some yin and yang dukes to deal with it.The so-called Yin-Yang Duangong is the honorific name of folk alchemists. They generally do not belong to Taoist priests, but they know some methods of exorcising ghosts and killing corpses.

Yinyang Duangong received reports from the public, took money for tobacco, alcohol and tea, and calculated that it was the corpse who caused the disaster.Zongzi is also divided into grades. There are a lot of things to pay attention to, so I won’t list them one by one. Some zongzi will cause floods, some will cause drought, and some will cause insect disasters, and so on.

Once Yin Yang Duangong confirms that the corpse is responsible, he will lead the villagers to dig up the corpse, among them there is a ghost pressing the coffin, and it is 100% effective.

Zongzi is a Yin thing, wandering at night and hiding during the day, and the Zongzi deep in the ancient tomb, because of the blessing of the earth, can not distinguish between day and night.Those big zongzi who don't have a big tomb to rely on usually hide in the coffin during the day.The yin and yang duogong fights the corpse leader, 100% chooses during the day, because the corpse cannot cause trouble during the day.But of course the leader of the corpse is not willing to be caught without a fight. After the coffin is dug out, they will use the trick of ghost pressing the coffin. The best way is to use fire.

I pushed vigorously, but the coffin did not move at all. I couldn't help but think of ghosts pressing on the coffin, and my heart was terrified. Is it true that I, Chen Xuan, am really going to die here today?The whereabouts of my grandfather's bones are still unknown, and the curse that killed my three generations of the Chen family has not yet been lifted. It is so unjust to die in a coffin like this.

I was unwilling, knowing that the zongzi under my body was causing the trouble, so I thought: If you want to die, you have to hold your back, you dead body, if you want to harm your Grandpa Chen, then you have to pay a price.Immediately prepare to suck blood again, turn around and spray it directly, it will kill you if it doesn't kill you.I just had this idea, before I could implement it, two green dots suddenly appeared in front of the dark coffin.

firefly?
I froze for a moment, biting my tongue.At this moment, the green dot gradually became bigger and became as big as an eyeball in an instant. Only then did I suddenly realize that it turned out to be a pair of eyeballs emitting green light!

I was sitting in the coffin, the eyeballs were only one meter away from me, emitting a faint light, even illuminating an inch of the ground, the eyeballs were impressively on a human face, but the face was dry and purple like wrinkled The bark was at the same height as my face, and the corner of the tattered mouth was split, and half of it was rotten to the root of the ear.

I was so frightened that there was actually a zongzi one meter away from me. It is not good if the coffin is too big. The ghost knows how many corpses there are in it.The only thing I am proud of is my brain. I react very quickly. Although I was so frightened that I became weak all over, I still reacted in the fastest time and kicked it out.

According to my guess, it was no more than one meter away from me. This kick could probably hit the chest and knock it down.

what happened?

My heart skipped a beat, and I broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that there is no body under this head?I suddenly remembered that I still had a tofu plastic lighter, so I quickly took it out and lit it.The coffin was full of bad luck, and the light from the lighter was so weak that it could only illuminate an inch of the ground. With the dim light that could be extinguished at any time, I finally saw that under the coffin lid one meter in front of me, there was a star hanging in the air. head.

It hangs high like this, with the corners of its mouth cracked, showing a strange and terrifying smile, and staring at me with a pair of green shiny eyes.

I just felt my scalp tingling, and I thought to myself: Could it be that when I fell into the coffin and struggled with the zongzi under me, it kept hanging over my head and looking at me like this?
Even though I've always been bold, I couldn't help feeling weak all over at this moment, and my muscles twitched. Immediately afterwards, the lighter in my hand finally couldn't bear the bad luck in the tomb, and went out instantly.Sometimes people's fear comes very quickly. Just now I was thinking of risking my life, but now when I encounter this accident, my whole body becomes weak in shock. When the lighter in my hand went out, it fell directly on the ground. Beside him, and the head also disappeared from sight.Those green eyes also disappeared...

But I know it's there, watching me in the dark.

I felt my throat was a little tight, the muscles all over my body were stiff, and I could hardly control myself in fear. Even now, I kept saying to myself in my heart: Chen Xuan, don't be intimidated, there is nothing to be afraid of the zongzi, cut it off The head will do.

But then I realized that the zongzi I was facing this time had no brains.

What should I do?
Thanks to my experience over the years, I have developed a relatively strong psychological quality. The whole process lasted about ten seconds. I overcame my fear, then turned around and changed my back to the coffin wall. With the dagger in front of his chest, he quickly reached for the dropped lighter with the other hand.

Now the coffin has been crushed by the zongzi. If the mischievous zongzi in the coffin is not resolved, I don't want to push the coffin out.

I don't know where I dropped the lighter, and I tried to guess where it was for a long time, but I couldn't find it.

Damn it, where did it go?

Time passed by second by second, and I was sweating profusely, not to mention regretting in my heart.He said in his heart, Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan, it’s okay to be afraid, you can lose your virginity, but how can you lose your lighter?
At this moment, there was a sudden light in the coffin where I couldn't see my fingers. A dry purple hand was holding my lighter and lit it.At this moment, I finally saw clearly the zongzi that put me into the coffin before, it really had no head!At this time, another voice came from behind me, saying to me: "Are you looking for it?"

I suppressed my fear and turned around, only to see that head, which was originally one meter away from me, was now almost stuck to my face.
