2. Chapter 2
Lu Fan suddenly stood up, pointed to the coffin and said, "Let me ask you, where is the body inside?" ”
The family of three was shocked when they heard this. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It's just because he hit the nail on the head.
The man hurriedly said: "The little master really has real skills, and he can see the joints at a glance!" ”
Then he told the truth.
It turned out that the man's surname was Meng, his name was Meng Dashun, his daughter-in-law was called Wang Fang, and his daughter was called Xiaofang. Five days ago, Meng Dashun's father and Meng Xiaofang's grandfather died, Meng Dashun was grieving, and invited the villagers to help him and send the old man to death in accordance with the ritual procedures. Everything is almost busy, the deceased has been nailed to the coffin, ready to go out of the funeral, but received the news that the township government implemented the spirit of the funeral reform document of the higher level to demolish the Shengji tomb, and the tomb of the old man Meng was also demolished, and he could not be buried, so he could only be cremated and entered the columbarium cemetery according to the regulations.
This involves some formalities.
So the coffin was left at home for two days.
One night, Meng Xiaofang got up to relieve herself, and suddenly heard a strange sound, as if something was knocking on the door. The voice came from the living room, and she followed it curiously. It turned out that the sound came from the coffin, and she was so frightened that she screamed and sat on the ground, and her scalp exploded.
Her movement woke up her parents, Meng Dashun and Wang Fang came to the living room, and also heard the sound in the coffin, in addition to the sound of beating, there was also a low shout, which sounded three points like a man and seven points like a beast.
A family of three was so frightened that the six gods were left behind.
The voice was getting louder and louder.
In the back, the coffin actually jumped, Meng Dashun stepped forward and pressed, but was shocked to the ground, the coffin was erected, the cover plate was cracked, and the coffin nails also fell to the ground.
The three members of the Meng family watched as Old Man Meng walked out of it.
Old man Meng's face was pale, his walking posture was as stiff as iron, and his knees seemed to be unable to bend.
The three members of the Meng family were so frightened that they hugged each other.
Old man Meng glanced at them and walked out the door.
Meng Dashun was bold and chased out with a stick, but he didn't see his father, and he looked around the village but there was no trace, as if he had evaporated.
The next day, it was the day of Old Man Meng's funeral, all the formalities had been completed, and the villagers came to Meng's house as promised to carry the coffin to be cremated. Meng Dashun didn't dare to tell the news of his father's corpse, but only said that he was reluctant to let his father go, and he would stop for two more days before sending it. Although some of the villagers don't understand, they don't want to force it, so they can be regarded as hiding it.
According to Meng Dashun's idea, find the old father first.
But he searched for two days and didn't have any clues.
It's just that the chickens, ducks and geese in the village died in two nights, and they were all very weirdly sucked dry blood and died.
The people in the village are now panicking, and Meng Dashun's family is even more panicked, because they know that this is likely to be the old father's doing.
Some people already suspect the Meng family, and they can't hide it anymore, but there is no solution, the daughter-in-law and daughter of the Meng family are so anxious that they cry all day long, and Meng Dashun is so anxious that he scratches his head, and his head is about to scratch bald.
After listening to the narration, Lu Fan frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Is it in this living room to put the coffin for Grandpa Meng?" ”
Meng Dashun nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Lu Fan asked again: "When the coffin was loaded, did any animals such as cats and dogs enter the yard?" ”
Meng Dashun and Wang Fang looked at each other, they were too busy that day to notice this.
Meng Xiaofang suddenly said, "Yes...... When my grandfather was put into the coffin, I saw a wild dog run into the yard and was later driven ...... Chased away ......"
After she finished speaking, she saw Lu Fan's eyes staring at her, and she immediately lowered her head, and her fair face became like a piece of red paper.
Lu Fan nodded and said, "Yes, Grandpa Meng is letting the wild dogs 'string gas' and raise the corpse." Now it's ghostly and non-human. According to what you described, the fowl in the village must have been sucked dry of blood. When the poultry is dead, it's time for it to suck human blood......"
Hearing this, the three members of the Meng family invariably let out an "ah".
Lu Fan continued: "Generally speaking, the ghoul after the corpse has a grudge in his chest, and he will resent his relatives for not letting them rest in peace, so he often kills his relatives first, then kills all the people in the village, and then goes to other places to kill people and suck blood. ”
The three members of the Meng family were so frightened that their faces turned white, Meng Dashun hurriedly asked Lu Fan for help, and Wang Fang and Meng Xiaofang also begged each other.
Lu Fan had intended to help them, but when he saw that the three of them were about to kneel down for him, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him, and said, "Fortunately, I came to your house today to spend the night, and fortunately, you also opened the door for me, otherwise ......."
Otherwise, by tomorrow, there will probably not be a single gasp in this courtyard.
Lu Fan didn't say this, worried that he would frighten them.
Since we have met, it is fate. Saving someone's life is a meritorious practice. What's more, this time it may save the lives of a village.
When the three members of the Meng family saw that he was willing to help, they immediately knelt down to thank him.
Lu Fan said: "Don't thank you anymore, there is not much time, go and prepare for the matter, the ghoul will come tonight." ”
Meng Dashun even claimed that it was, and asked what to prepare.
Lu Fan said: "I want a big rooster and glutinous rice." ”
Meng Dashun said with a bitter face: "The chickens are all dead." ”
Lu Fan smacked his lips and said in his heart, yes, the chickens, ducks and geese were all bitten to death by Old Man Meng.
So he said, "Let's bring the glutinous rice first." ”
I thought about what to use instead of rooster blood.
After a while, Meng Xiaofang brought a bowl of glutinous rice and asked, "Is it enough...... Is it enough? ”
Lu Fan said: "Enough, I want another empty bowl." ”
Meng Xiaofang brought an empty bowl. Lu Fan looked at the three people in the room, and finally fixed his eyes on Meng Dashun and said, "Uncle, I will lend you a bowl of blood." ”
Meng Dashun said: "Ah, do you want my blood? ”
Lu Fan nodded.
Meng Dashun gritted his teeth, in order to survive, what is it to put a bowl of blood. He took a knife and cut his wrist, until he put a bowl full of blood, and then asked his daughter-in-law to bandage him.
At the same time as Meng Dashun bleed, Lu Fan asked Meng Xiaofang to grind the glutinous rice into powder, and he took out the burden with pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the black backpack and spread it out on the small table.
Different from the ordinary four treasures of the study, the pen is a wolf pen, the ink is pine smoke ink, the paper is yellow rune paper, and the inkstone is a clear mud inkstone.
When Meng Xiaofang brought the ground glutinous rice noodles, Lu Fan had already changed into a yellow robe and put on a crown, and he looked good.
First light three incense sticks and worship the three Qingdao Zun. Then start the three mantras of pen and inkstone.
Personally mixed glutinous rice flour, Meng Dashun's hot blood and pine smoke ink into the inkstone and grinded, dipped the wolf pen in the ink, and drew it on the yellow rune paper.
First hook the head of the talisman, then draw the talisman gall, and finally collect the talisman foot.
Coherent.
A talisman is drawn.
Then Lu Fan drew a few more pictures in a row.
When he was finished, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and his wheezing was as heavy as that of an ox, as if it were more laborious than climbing a mountain.
Fold three of them into small triangular pieces and distribute them to each of the three members of the Meng family, explaining that this is a "talisman" to hide closely.
Then he said, "Sleep, for if the light is turned on like this, the ghouls will not come." If the ghouls don't come, the plan will be in trouble. ”
Meng Dashun said nervously: "But ......"
Lu Fan said: "Uncle and aunt don't be afraid, I estimate that when the ghoul comes back, he will find his granddaughter first, as long as you two carry the talisman and cover your body with a sheet to sleep, you can be safe." ”
How could Meng Dashun and Wang Fang not be afraid, although it was rural, they were nervous that their biological daughter was better than themselves, and when they heard that the ghouls would find Meng Xiaofang first, they immediately turned red in a hurry.
Meng Xiaofang was also so frightened that she was about to cry.
Lu Fan said: "Don't be like this, I haven't finished yet." Tonight, uncles and aunts take care of themselves and do what I just said. As for me, I'll stay in the same room with Xiaofang, and the ghoul will find it, and I'll deal with it immediately! ”
