Chapter 16: The Corpse
"Ladies and gentlemen, today Ren Gongwei has seen the light of day again, and all those who are thirty-six, twenty-two, thirty-five and forty-eight, who belong to chickens and oxen, will turn away from them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
After Uncle Nine finished saying these taboos, four people turned around on the spot, after all, Uncle Nine is a professional, and it is right to listen to him.
"Everyone dress up and open the coffin!"
As Uncle Nine gave the order, the four workers were ready to open the coffin, and at this moment, a few crows flew out of the woods next to them, and they also made a strange sound of "quack".
All the people present looked at each other, because this was not a good intention, but the matter has come to this point, and the coffin can't be buried again, right?
"Open the coffin!"
With a "click", the coffin lid was lifted.
A burst of black corpse qi visible to the naked eye rose up, and after being illuminated by the sun, it suddenly disappeared, and then revealed the true face of the corpse's bones: I didn't expect that this old man didn't have a trace of decay!
Although the situation in the coffin looked weird, Master Ren still knelt down with a thud, followed by a dry howl:
"Dad, this alarms your old man, the child is really unfilial!"
After kneeling three times and knocking nine times, Master Ren got up, Chu Nan looked at it from the side, and sure enough, there were no tears, but Master Ren couldn't care about the face problem at this time, and what he was most concerned about now was the issue of moving the grave:
"Uncle Nine, don't you know this hole?"
Of course, Uncle Nine knew what he was thinking, but there were some things that he couldn't force on.
"The dragonfly points to the water, little by little, and it will definitely not be in the same place again, this hole has been wasted. β
Speaking of which, Uncle Nine is also embarrassed, he has been engaged in this business for most of his life, and he really hasn't seen a few such good holes, it's a pity......
"So what now?"
"I recommend cremation immediately. β
As soon as he heard this, Master Ren immediately jumped to his feet and objected: "Cremation, no, my father was afraid of fire when he was alive!"
Damn, this reason is really fresh and refined, so your father didn't need to light candles before?
"The Book of Burial" has clouds: the sense of air responds, and the ghost blesses people. β¦β¦ There are people in the world who often abandon their bones without blessings and misfortunes, and they are separated from them with their hearts. Therefore, after cremation, the effect of Feng Shui will be greatly reduced, or even disappear completely. Therefore, this should be the reason why he is strongly opposed to cremation.
Sure enough, even if Uncle Nine tried his best to lobby, he was never able to persuade Master Ren, in a word: it can't be cremated!
Uncle Nine was forced to have no choice but to compromise in the end, after all, taking people's money and eliminating disasters with others, the employer's requirements are the most important.
"Okay, leave the coffin in Yizhuang for the time being, and I hope that tomorrow I can help Old Lady Ren find other cemeteries, so that he can rest in peace as soon as possible. β
"Okay, cover the coffin and carry it back to Yizhuang. β
"Master Ren, you invite first, and I'll leave it to us first. β
Master Ren nodded, and then sat on the bamboo stick. You must know that this is a rugged mountain road, and I really feel sorry for the two palanquin bearers.
When everyone was almost gone, Uncle Nine instructed the two apprentices:
"You two burn a plum blossom array in the tomb, how it burns, come back and tell me. Then he turned around and saw that there was a cemetery not far from the old lady, and Uncle Jiu immediately said: "Every grave there must also be incense!"
After saying that, Uncle Nine left, Chu Nan wanted to see what an orthodox zombie was like, so he casually found an excuse and followed Uncle Nine to Yizhuang.
γγγγγγγ
To tell the truth, this is the first time Chu Nan has come to Yizhuang, in his opinion, there is nothing unusual about the dozens of coffins, the most eye-catching thing is the countless tablets enshrined in the lobby, these tablets are distributed in a stepped manner, and each tablet is also lit in front of the everlasting lamp, from a distance, it is as bright as a galaxy.
At this moment, Qiusheng and Wen Cai ran back in a panic, and then handed a pillar of incense in their hands to Uncle Jiu.
"Master, look. β
"People are most afraid of three long and two short, and incense is the most taboo of two short and one long, but it is burned like this. β
Chu Nan looked at it, isn't it, the incense in Uncle Jiu's hand was originally bundled into three turns, but now there is one left that has not been burned.
"When this incense comes out of the house, someone will be mourned. β
"Is it Master Ren's house?"
"Is this it?"
Hearing this conversation, Chu Nan knew that the time had come to return the favor of the eldest lady, so he asked:
"Uncle Jiu, is it because of Old Lady Ren's corpse?"
After hearing this, Uncle Nine nodded solemnly, and at this time, Qiusheng and Wencai also reacted.
"I also felt that something was wrong with the corpse. β
"Yes, the body hasn't decomposed in twenty years. β
With that, the two brothers looked at each other, and then pushed the lid of the coffin open.
"Ah, it's blessed!"
When Chu Nan heard this exclamation, he also hurriedly looked at it, and found that the corpse was not only swollen, but also gave birth to black and long nails.
When Uncle Nine saw it, he immediately ordered: "Cover the coffin! Prepare paper, pen, ink, knife, and sword!"
"What?"
"What?"
Seeing the two apprentices speaking in unison, Uncle Nine really felt ashamed, especially now that there were outsiders present, but he couldn't do it, so he had to grit his teeth and say:
"It's rune paper, red pen, black ink, real knife, wooden sword!"
Seeing that Qiusheng and the others brought these guys, Uncle Nine caught a big rooster again.
"Master, do you use chickens again?"
Uncle Nine was stunned, and Wen Cai was so frightened that he immediately retracted his head: Yes, you can fix it as much as you like.
Because there is a Dharma altar in the entire Yizhuang all the year round, Uncle Jiu directly mixed the rooster blood and ink, and then poured it into the ink fountain.
"Master, where is this bomb?"
"Bounce on the coffin, remember, every coffin has to be played!"
"Oh. β
Seeing that the two disciples were busy, Uncle Nine began to teach: "People are divided into good people and bad people, corpses are divided into dead bodies and zombies, and the corpse of Old Lady Ren is the corpse that will become a zombie." β
"How can a corpse turn into a zombie?"
"A person becomes a bad guy because he is not angry, and a corpse becomes a zombie because he has an extra breath. β
"What do you mean by a breath of air?"
Uncle Nine crossed his waist, "But before mortals die, there will be a breath accumulated in their throats, and if this breath is not spit out, it is very likely that the corpse will change after death." β
"Therefore, people are constantly angry when they die, and they harm others and themselves. β
"Okay, just play the line, don't be verbose, you guys be careful, don't miss it!"
At this time, it was almost December, and it was getting darker and earlier, and seeing that it was getting late, Chu Nan also got up to say goodbye.

In the middle of the night, the stars were dim, and at this time, a sharp claw stretched out from the coffin of the old lady Ren......
