Chapter 166: The Awakening
166 Wake Spirit
"This master, it's not my brothers who brag about themselves, my brothers have arranged your funeral for you. Pen%Fun%Ge www.biquge.info How much does the so-called Zhang Sanye want to charge you just now? The fat man asked directly.
"Don't call me Lord, you can call me Uncle Hu, Zhang Sanye is very famous in this area, and his fees are naturally not low. This one will cost five or six thousand, if you say the least, what? Zhang Sanye spoke when he left just now, you have a feng shui treasure in your hands, which can bless your children and grandchildren, don't say that I don't believe in this. Even if you believe it, I don't have time to accompany you two juniors to fool around here today, so you better go. As he spoke, he prepared us to push the door out.
"Huber, don't worry! Let's have something to say, he Zhang Sanye wants to charge you five or six thousand, and my brothers are unlucky, as long as you are three thousand. What do you think? It's been a couple of days, and my brother and I have lost money. I said immediately. The fat man asked the guy for the asking price before, which was naturally a foreshadowing for my counter-offer later.
Isn't that how business is done? One asks for a sky-high price, and the other sits on the ground to pay back. This Huber sat on the stool and thought for a while, and then looked at me and the fat man again with a pair of eyes. "Can you really do it? Don't mess things up for me, when the time comes, everyone will say that I, Hu Bo, is greedy for a small bargain, and the etiquette and filial piety that should be there have not been fulfilled. Then I will be a joke for the rest of my life, and I can't hold my head up. After this Hu Bo finished speaking, he discussed something with a person behind him, and said after a while: "Okay, then decide on the two of you." Now the main task is to bury you, and let you come tonight. ”
After saying that, he directly disdained the two of us, and didn't even bother to take a look, so he left directly. There is food and drink here, and there are people to watch, our days are finally chic, this day is good, time is mixed. In the blink of an eye, the sun is setting, and it is about to get dark.
A large black coffin was pulled in from outside the door, and three or four men were on board to carry it down, and it was still just an empty coffin, and if it was filled with dead people, it would have been at least seven or eight adult men. This is called the weight of death, because the yin qi of the dead is much heavier than the anger of the living.
"Alright, I'll leave it to you now. Don't make trouble for me, or Lao Tzu won't let you out of this door. After Hu Bo finished speaking, he took the lead and left. In the blink of an eye, this place was left with me and the fat man. This is a necessary ritual for burial, which is purification. This is not the same as the ancient eunuch purification. It was a ****** cut, and this was to bathe the corpse, and it was the last time I touched water in the world, and it would be a pile of white bones in the future.
A huge wooden jar was already filled with more than half a jar of water, and seven sets of funeral clothes on the coffin were so thick that people would be cautious at a glance, which was all exquisite. Generally, only people who die of normal old age and who are highly respected can have the opportunity to wear seven sets of funeral clothes.
Me and the fat man, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to start. "Fat man, look at your bad idea, it's not going to work now, right? You're a Taoist, but you're doing it! ”
The fat man glanced at me and said, ", you are a walking corpse, and you are an expert at this corpse." It's better for you to come! "This **** shirks cleaner than anyone else. Hearing that there seemed to be no one outside the door, I immediately lifted the white cloth, revealing a low old woman with dry white hair, and her mouth open, revealing yellow teeth. No matter how I look at it, it makes people feel frightened, I immediately suppressed the panic in my heart, picked up the corpse at once, and threw it directly into the big wooden jar, splashing everywhere.
The fat man was splashed all over his body, and walked towards the distance with a scolding grin. I shouted, "Come and help!" "The two of them worked together to carry this corpse out, don't you say, this old lady is worthy of dying in a long life, and her body is still soft, otherwise if she has been stiff for a long time after dying, this dress is still a troublesome matter.
The two of us were also lazy, so we directly moved the old lady and put it on the coffin, and the clothes inside were so wet, and then put those funeral clothes on her. In the blink of an eye, her body swelled up, and then she opened the coffin directly, allowing her to lie down peacefully.
My brother and I started sitting at the table again, smoking, drinking, and even eating peanuts. It's been a good little day.
After half an hour, Huber finally came in with someone. "You're all done?"
"Don't worry, you're all set." I replied.
"Okay, lift the coffin, hang white, and enter the mourning hall." The old guy shouted, and a group of people around him directly kicked me and the fat man away from the table in the middle of the mourning hall. Then the coffin was placed directly in the middle of the hall, an oil lamp, a bowl of rice, and a raw egg was placed on top of the rice, and these two things were placed in front of the coffin. And a square colored portrait was also hung on the head of the coffin, and the old lady looked at me with her mouth curled, as if looking at me and laughing.
"Okay, today is the first night of hanging, filial sons and grandsons have not come, tomorrow will be mourned, tonight you will keep the spirit, what is the money. It's easy to say...... "This Hu Bo doesn't know what it has to do with this dead old lady, he should have been a filial son, a filial grandson, a filial daughter, and a filial daughter-in-law, so he directly asked my brothers to keep the spirit." I was about to turn my face immediately, but the fat man suddenly burned my hand.
He whispered into my ear and said, "There's no need to be like this guy, we're here to make money." You haven't heard of it, it's easy to talk about money. When the time comes, it's not up to us to ask for it casually. Let's just put up with this anger, sooner or later we will get the field back, and when the money arrives, hehe...... "He didn't say the latter words, but there was no need to say it.
The two of us waited quietly for the people around us to go away, and then faced the dim light, drinking wine, eating peanuts, and a tape recorder on the coffin behind us. There was that kind of pathetic singing that cried and wiped away tears, which made people feel uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts. Looking at this scene, I feel disgusted, but it's not easy to go out, it's all for money.
This is definitely a case of great unfilial piety in ancient times. Not only did no one come to mourn, but there was not even a horn suona. Just let the two of us sit here and keep watch, and I feel aggrieved when I think about it. This place is cool at night, and the night breeze blows like a girl's gentle palm.
I stared at the night sky silently, not knowing where I was headed. What exactly am I going to do? What exactly can be done? I thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure it out.
At this time, the fat man suddenly whispered in my ear and asked, "Are you sleepy?" If you're sleepy, go to sleep! (To be continued.) )
