Chapter 14: The Horse Drives the Coffin

The fat man and I watched him slowly leave, and the fat man slowly recovered from the shock and pulled me and asked, "Shall we still follow him?"

I shook my head and went back with the fat man.

I generally understand what Zhao Qian wants to do, he is emptying the ghosts around, and when he raises the price of the old man tomorrow, it is estimated that the ghosts around will be cleaned up by him, so it is really possible to succeed.

When the sky was about to dawn, Zhao Qian hurriedly came back.

The fat man and I didn't sleep either, as soon as he entered the door, he directly took off the leather sheath on his back and stuffed it into the wooden box, and waited until it was closed before he let out a sigh, and the whole person looked a little sluggish.

I guess he must have killed the ghost all night, so he was tired.

"Why do you want to help Wang Xiangwen, you can't fail to see what kind of person he is!" I couldn't help but ask.

Zhao Qian is better than me, I admit it! So I know Wang Xiangwen's nature, but he can't see it.

"He's an adopted son!" Although Zhao Gan's tone was still cold, there was a sad expression in his eyes.

I was shocked that he actually helped because he and Wang Xiangwen had the same background.

The fat man immediately understood the meaning of Zhao Gan's previous words, and walked over to Zhao Gan with a twist and said, "What! I don't know your background, I was a little unconvinced just now, and I didn't ...... with a heart."

The fat man knew that his words in the field just now were a little hurtful, so he came over to apologize at this time, but don't look at him apologizing at this time, I'm afraid I still have some opinions about Zhao Gan in my heart.

"I'll wait for you at the place of the new grave!" Zhao Qian didn't mean to talk to the fat man at all, and said to me.

He actually meant to wait for me to do something else in the afternoon, and he would show up when the ghost was digging the grave.

After speaking, Zhao Qian sat in the corner of the wall with the long wooden box and closed his eyes, looking like he was going to sleep for a while.

"Inside...... There are beds. I don't know why, but I still say it.

However, Zhao Qian didn't make any moves, and it seemed that he didn't plan to pay attention to me.

I slept in the house with the fat man for a while, and then went to check the "plain car white horse" at noon.

Zhao Qian has not appeared in front of everyone since he came back.

Zhang Wei came over to me and asked me if he would be unlucky.

I told him to light a brazier with paper money at the door when he was done with this, and then jumped over and said a few words to let the things take the money and leave, and it would be fine.

Zhang Wei immediately happily brought the news back to the person carrying the coffin.

The sun was setting in the west, and the appointed time had come.

Wang Xiangwen still pretended to be a bastard to invite me, I didn't want to look at him again, so I got up and prepared to start.

The first thing to do is to "invite the ancestors", and the fat man and Wang Xiangwen and I took a few people who were going to carry the coffin to light incense and arrived at the old tomb from home.

I asked the king to bow to Wen three times and bow nine times, and bow to the old man, and he had to knock his head on the ground.

When he finished praying, I lit three sticks of incense in the east, west, and north directions, leaving only the south side, because the south side is where the new tomb is located.

Then he burned paper money to appease the ghosts around him, which means that he used the money to buy off the ghosts around him, so as not to let them be angry because of our disturbance, but I don't know how many ghosts are left after being slaughtered by Zhao Gan all night.

Then the ground can be opened.

The dug up coffin is also a little decayed, but fortunately the body inside is not exposed, I walked along the coffin, looked at the coffin nails on the coffin, has been cracked by water bubbles, naturally can no longer be used, this time I am afraid that even the coffin nails will not be able to fish.

Then I spread a white cloth and let Wang Xiangwen hold the coffin and cry for a while, the thoughts of the family are the easiest to soothe the soul, but I looked at Wang Xiangwen's appearance and pretended to be more important.

It was only after the requiem incense had been lit three times that I asked the bearers to put ropes on them to lift the coffin.

After lifting it up, I asked Wang Xiangwen to lead the way in front with the soul incense.

The coffin must be carried home first, and then the new tomb can be carried to the new tomb after the house is replaced.

Burn the carriage before leaving, burn the white horse when you meet the intersection, and burn the paper bridge when you pass by the water's edge.

Fortunately, those people had enough manpower along the way, and there were no forks.

When I got home, I placed a few tables on the floor to keep the coffin from falling to the floor.

asked Wang Xiangwen to put a few sticks of incense on it, and then opened the coffin.

As soon as the coffin was opened, a rancid smell came out, and I looked at the decomposed corpse, which showed that there was not much yin qi gathered in the old man's body, and if it didn't rot, then I would still need to use the coffin nails to suppress it.

Let Wang Xiangwen personally carry the body to the new museum.

Originally, it was okay to use a white cloth to carry it, but I did have the idea of revenge on Wang Xiangwen in my heart, so I let Wang Xiangwen personally hold the body, if it failed at night, the old man would not find the wrong person when he returned to his soul!

Finally, the coffin was sealed and nailed with six coffin nails.

The nails are all ordinary locust wood, willow wood and peach wood.

In fact, most of the coffins are made of ordinary wood, and it will take a long time to become the kind of coffin nails that can be used in my hands, like this time I didn't find a usable coffin nail on the old coffin.

The wood of the new nails is too difficult to obtain, and ordinary people can't use it, and only the kind of corpses that have problems with their own corpses will be sealed with new nails or coffin nails.

After the coffin was sealed, I couldn't help but get nervous.

A few people had rested enough and planned to come to carry the coffin.

This is where the horses and coffins begin.

Among the four people who carried the coffin, Zhang Wei was the youngest, so he would not affect the strength of others in the back.

The four of them put the sleeper on their shoulders and slammed it hard, but they didn't lift it.

The four of them didn't believe in evil, and they shouted softly and forcefully, but it was still useless, and the faces of the four people changed, and such an evil thing made them a little scared in their hearts.

I sighed secretly in my heart, can this coffin be so easy to lift?

Wang Xiangwen looked at me anxiously.

I felt his gaze, I had already taken this job, and I also took the hush money from others, so I can't do no work at all.

I took out the "elm eye".

At this time, I had to use this thing, but I don't know if this "elm eye" can last until the new grave.

I put the "elm eye" on top of the coffin to temporarily suppress the momentum.

"You pay attention, once this elm eye is cracked, there will be a huge force, you hold on, you can't let the coffin fall to the ground!" I instructed.

"Brothers, work hard, everyone will give you red envelopes, and I will have a banquet when I go back!" Wang Xiangwen was also cheering everyone up.

This time, the four of them carried the coffin much more easily than before, and after lifting it, they looked at me with a little awe.

I asked Wang Xiangwen to light the soul incense in his hand, and when it was about to burn out, I had to change the column, don't cut off the incense.

At this time, I went out in a big way.

Although it is a grave move, it is equivalent to another funeral, it is best not to meet a large number of living people, I told Wang Xiangwen about this, and I don't know what means he used, but every house is closed, and there is no one outside.

When he came out of the door, Zhang Wei was still young, stepped on the air under his feet, and almost knocked the coffin to the ground, Wang Xiangwen glared at him angrily, so frightened that Zhang Wei was about to cry.

I looked at Zhang Wei's appearance, and told him to relieve the siege and tell them to hurry up, just if the coffin didn't fall to the ground.

As soon as he walked onto the main street, a strange thing happened, the white horse that had been lit was actually extinguished, and it looked tattered after half burning.

So Wang Xiangwen's younger brother hurriedly ordered another one, this time it was only extinguished after burning the horse's leg.

I took a look and knew that this was a line that God did not admit that Wang Xiangwen had raised his adoptive father's worth.

When Wang Xiangwen looked at me, I could only strike again.

I blinded the white horse's eyes with a coffin, and then lit a stick of incense and stuck it on the horse's head.

The horse's legs, which were about to be extinguished this time, immediately continued to burn.

I also know that this is a superficial effort, but fortunately this road can go directly to the new grave, and there is no need to burn the white horse when the route is changed halfway.

Halfway through the walk, I saw that the faces of the people carrying the coffins began to turn a little pale and their bodies began to sweat.

I approached the coffin and found that the elm on it had begun to have some fine lines, and I was afraid that I could not hold on.

"Mr. Bai, this coffin is getting heavier and heavier!" Zhang Wei whispered when he saw me approaching him.

I gave him a silent gesture.

"Ready, don't land!" I said to the four of them.

Hearing my reminder, the crowd tightened their grip on the sleeper on their shoulders.

After walking dozens of steps, the "elm eye" on the coffin suddenly exploded and shattered into several petals, and the four people carrying the coffin bent down in unison, as if they were suddenly pulled down by a huge force.

But fortunately, the coffin was still some distance from the ground and did not fall.

The four of them held on for a while, but their pace grew slower.

"Mr. Bai, my feet seem to be filled with lead!" Zhang Wei said, biting his lip.

I looked down and saw that there were a lot of footprints on the dirt road they were walking.

It seems that Zhao Qian did not kill all the ghosts.

I tapped the tips of all of them with a cinnabar pen, and they felt better.

When we saw the new grave, our hearts were relieved, but at this time, a creaking sound suddenly came from the sleepers on our shoulders.

I saw that the solid sleepers were slowly bent a little.

A pair of hand prints also appeared on it.

This is to press the coffin to the ground!

And the sleeper was about to break, and the muscles of the four people were tense at this time.

The new grave is in front of him, it doesn't matter if he wants it or not, I thought to myself.

When the coffin falls to the ground, the four coffin-bearers will suffer a catastrophe.

I raised my hand, and the nail of the coffin was nailed to the handprint on the sleeper.

"Hurry!!" I urged.

They felt relieved and quickly placed the coffin in the new grave.

It was only then that we breathed a sigh of relief.

The four of them collapsed to the ground in exhaustion, gasping heavily.

I saw that there was blood flowing out of the cracks in the coffin nails on the sleepers.

The sleeper is bleeding!The yin qi around him is so strong? Isn't Zhao Qian already killing most of the ghosts?

I wiped the blood stains off the sleeper with one hand, but my heart was very gloomy, so I asked Wang Xiangwen to bury the coffin quickly and then take someone back.

At this time, the sky was already a little dark, and the delay on the road was too long, I glanced at the blood stains in my hands, I am afraid that there is still something powerful about to come out, and I will have to stay here for a night tonight to be considered a real success.

It's just that Zhao Qian hasn't appeared yet!
