Chapter 52: The Dead Marry

Previous Chapter

Chu Shihan cried even more sadly, it seems that she has no intention of going back tonight, I persuaded her to go to the dormitory to rest, she ignored it, and walked towards the cemetery by herself with a shovel.

She said if you don't help me I'm going to dig it myself, I have to find out what happened to my dad, why did he give me a dream, is he really unhappy down there?

I'm helpless, it's definitely impossible to let a girl stay in the cemetery in the middle of the night now, right?

Okay, if you want to dig the grave, I'll help you dig it, just now I said that the young people of the new era don't believe in cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, and now they insist on trusting dreams of those things, girl, it's too fast to change words.

Well, I'll dig up the grave and show her that there's nothing going on, so that her heart can rest easy.

Just do it, the two of them arrived in front of the new grave, and with their hands and feet, they started to dig up the soil on the grave, but the soil was not much, because the new tomb had to support the mountain three days later, and the tomb would be sealed when the mountain was helped, and all the soil would be covered and built into a complete tomb.

Soon, the soil on the coffin lid was cleaned up, I looked at the coffin lid of the black hole, looked at Chu Shihan beside me, and said to her: "You have to think about it, you have to think about it, do you really want to disturb the second elder?"

Chu Shihan bit her lip, closed her eyes and thought for a while, took a deep breath, nodded heavily, and said, "I've already thought about it, open the coffin." ”

"Which one?"

"Open my father's mouth, according to the custom, it is a male left and female right burial method, and my father's coffin is on the left!"

"Okay. ”

I bent down, reached out and lifted the coffin lid on the left, and with all my strength, gritted my teeth to remove the coffin lid, and when I looked down into the coffin, I screamed in fright, and almost fell into the coffin.

I saw the corpse lying flat in the coffin with its teeth exposed, its eyes wide open, and its expression was as hideous as the killing god in the portrait.

What's even more daring to look at is that the whole face of the dead corpse is covered with blue fluff more than an inch long, which looks like a devil with a blue face and fangs, fortunately, the willpower is strong enough, otherwise it is possible to be scared to death on the spot.

I got up and grabbed Chu Shihan, stretched out my hand to cover her eyes, and said to her, "Don't look at it, there's nothing to see, let's cover the coffin, cover the soil and go." ”

"You let go of your hand. ”

"Don't let it go!"

Chu Shihan took my hand and bit it, biting me so much that I screamed, I had to let go, Chu Shihan took the opportunity to run to the coffin, only to see her look into the coffin, her body shook, fortunately I ran over and hugged her, so I didn't let her fall.

I helped Chu Shihan, who was almost stunned, to sit down, and was about to persuade her to leave, but she said, "You go and untie my father's chest clothes to see, but what's wrong?"

I broke down and said, "Girl, are you trying to kill me?"

What is the concept of undressing a grinning corpse?

Even if I am no longer afraid of ghosts and gods, I am still frightened in my heart, seeing that I don't want to do it, Chu Shihan struggled to get up and wanted to do it himself.

I had no choice, so I had to sit down with Chu Shihan, gritted my teeth and went to untie the shroud of the corpse in the coffin, and said to the corpse while unraveling: "If you have a spirit in the sky, don't blame me for my offense, if you want to blame, blame your baby daughter, it's her...... Hey, your dad has bruises on his chest, as if he was hit with a hammer!"

"Then look at the top of his head, if there's anything. Chu Shihan said again.

I listened, helped the corpse close the shroud, reached out and touched the top of the corpse's head, suddenly my body shook, and I lost my voice and said: "There is a nail on the top of the head, it seems to be a big iron nail, the kind that is directly driven into the top of the head!"

Hearing this, Chu Shihan was not surprised, she just looked up at the night sky and muttered: "I really didn't guess wrong, I really didn't guess wrong, Dad was still attacked by them." ”

"What's the matter?" I put the body down, got up and asked Chu Shihan.

Chu Shihan shook his head and said: "My father was hammered into his chest after he was buried, and they did this to pick up my grandmother without being disturbed by my father." ”

She confused me by saying this: "Pick up your grandma? Isn't your grandma lying in another coffin, how can you take it away?"

"It was an empty coffin. Chu Shihan said lightly, although I couldn't understand what she was saying, I didn't open another coffin to verify.

Because I was afraid of seeing a more terrible situation, when the two of them were about to close the coffin, I suddenly saw that the eyes and mouth of the corpse in the coffin had closed by itself.

I was so frightened that I hurriedly closed the coffin lid, not daring to tell Chu Shihan, for fear of scaring her out of illness.

Chu Shihan said to me: "After helping the mountain tomorrow, you and the policewoman will be called to my house to summon spirits, they have already called Mr. Spirits, see you tomorrow afternoon, brother policeman." ”

……

Because I was irritable, I was sitting alone in the dormitory drinking and depressed, when Acacia pushed open the door and walked in, and when I came in, I asked, "Yo, drinking alone?"

"Come over for a whole two?" I said.

"No, I'll have to drive in a minute. ”

"By car, are you going outside?"

"Yes, drink the wine!"

"Drink the wedding wine, are you sure you're not joking?" I looked at my watch, it was close to twelve o'clock at night, who would drink the wedding wine at midnight?

Jin Hehuan nodded, and said with certainty: "Of course I'm not joking, today's wedding wine is a bit special, and it can only be drunk at night, are you interested in coming with me?"

Acacia couldn't help but say, dragged me up from the chair, dragged me downstairs and stuffed it into the car, and drove in the direction of the village.

The two drove for more than ten minutes to arrive at the wedding venue.

The wedding was held in an open space at the entrance of the village, and I saw that the open space was brightly lit and crowded, and under a large shed, there were many sacrifices and papier-mΓ’chΓ© utensils.

I saw the groom and bride sitting side by side on the Taishi chair behind the sacrifice, and a couple of newlyweds wearing red Tang costumes were sitting expressionlessly.

Next to the seventy or eighty-year-old groom sat his equally old bride, and the bride was none other than the old lady in my dream!

I looked at the bride and groom a few more times, and after making sure that it was correct, I pulled the acacia aside, and said to him in a low voice: "This wedding you brought me to is a little weird, why does the person who marries look like a dead person?"

"Of course it's a dead man, because it's a ghost marriage. "Acacia is very calm, usually chatting with me while munching on melon seeds.

When I heard the word "ghost marriage", I beat a drum in my heart and asked: "The meaning of the ghost marriage is that if there is a dead family, and his family wants to have a ghost marriage, he will find a way to get another corpse to marry the deceased?"

"Yes, you guessed it right. ”

"Do you know where this woman's body came from?"

"It may have been dug out of a grave, it couldn't have come on its own. ”

Jin Hehuan spit out a field of melon seed skin, white look at me, that is disgusted with me too much, she said: "It is said that this man did not marry in his life, and after his death, everyone discussed the level to marry him, and only then did everything possible to find such a good woman through various means, so I brought you tonight to give you a long insight." ”

After listening to this, I sighed, thinking of Chu Shihan in my heart, and felt more and more that Chu Shihan was not a simple girl.

Sure enough, she guessed that her grandmother was really not in the grave, and since she guessed that her grandmother was not there, then she must have guessed who got the old lady away.

It's strange that if she can guess all this, why would she not care, and let others dig her family's grave?

Seeing that I was lost in thought, Jin Hehuan patted me on the shoulder: "What's the matter, what are you thinking?"

"I'm wondering, what will they do with the corpses they brought to the marriage after the marriage?" I hurriedly made up.

Jin Hehuan spread his hands and said, "After the underworld marriage, those corpses will generally be thrown away, now that the coffin is so expensive, who will spend money to buy a coffin for a useless corpse?"

"This is so inhumane, what would the original family of the corpse think if they knew?" I listened a little angrily.

Jin Hehuan laughed, and he said: "You don't know, in fact, the most inhumane thing is the original family of the corpse, and many of the corpses of this underworld marriage were sold by their families themselves. ”

"Sell corpses?"

I exclaimed, what age is it, will there still be such a ridiculous thing? Could it be that the old lady's body was sold by Chu Shihan? Chu Shihan asked me to dig her grave at night just to sell her grandmother's body?

I said to myself, "No way, she can't be this kind of person who has lost her conscience!"

Hearing that I was saying strange things, Jin Hehuan was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Who are you talking about, who has lost your conscience?"

"No, no, I was taken aback by what you just said...... Don't make fun of it. I came back to my senses and covered my mouth.

What I have heard and seen in the past few days is really too much information, and I need to calm down and straighten out my thoughts.

Before I could speak, we were startled by the sound of gongs and drums in the shed, and we turned around to see that there was a group of spiritualists in the shed, and the spiritualists began to dance around the pair of corpses with spiritualist equipment.

The appearance of the spiritualist is probably the time of the underworld marriage ceremony*, when there are more and more onlookers, and the spiritualist also begins their performance, and the applause is higher and higher.

What kind of fire, walking knife mountain, luring ghosts...... The methods of the spiritualists were just as strange as ever, and the applause was getting louder and louder, but Jin Acacia and I looked at each other helplessly, smiled bitterly at each other and shook our heads.

We all knew that the spiritualists were playing acrobatic tricks, but the people watching the excitement were very engaged because they thought it was amazing.

This is the embodiment of ignorance, and it is precisely because of ignorance that these people who pretend to be gods and ghosts can eat well, and the profession of spiritualist will become popular.

I said to Acacia, "It seems that the spiritualist is very good at our area?"

"Yes, what age is it, and there are still so many people here who are so superstitious!" said Acacia with a long sigh and helplessness.
