Chapter 1: The Mysterious Coffin

Next Chapter

A Buddhist holy place in China, located between the mountains, the incense is prosperous, there are many tourists, Gu Xiaoxian is carrying a backpack, rubbing the tour guides of other teams to listen to the explanation, and sometimes follow the worship.

"Female donor, please stay, the family teacher wants to see you. A little novice saluted Gu Xiaoxian lightly, said with a smile, and at the same time blocked Gu Xiaoxian's way.

Gu Xiaoxian first looked behind her and made sure that Xiao Shami was indeed talking to her, so she pointed at herself suspiciously and asked, "See me?"

"That's right, please come with me. The little novice made a gesture of please.

Gu Xiaoxian was a little hesitant, she was just an ordinary sophomore, she just came out to play during the summer vacation, how could there be an old Zen master who wanted to see her? Could it be that this is a new trick? Even the ring scar is so realistic, it looks like that.

"Little Master, did you recognize the wrong person?" Gu Xiaoxian confirmed again.

"The donor comes with me. Xiao Shami didn't answer Gu Xiaoxian, but insisted that Gu Xiaoxian go with him.

"I don't want it, I'm just going to walk around. Gu Xiaoxian stepped back, not really wanting to go.

"Don't panic, the family teacher has no malicious intentions, and the donor will know when he sees the family teacher. The little novice continued. The two stayed for a long time, and there were already people around who began to watch the excitement.

"Okay, then what is your master asking me for? Shouldn't you tell my fortune?" Gu Xiaoxian was helpless, but she still followed Xiao Shami, and kept in the middle of the road, and there was no way. Anyway, in broad daylight, this is a temple again, and nothing will happen to you. If it is a fortune teller and cheats money, she will definitely not be fooled.

"The donor will know when he sees the teacher. The little novice said.

Gu Xiaoxian saw that she couldn't ask anything, so she didn't speak anymore. However, she was also a little curious in her heart, and she really wanted to see what this old Zen master was looking for her.

Xiao Shami took Gu Xiaoxian all the way to the inner courtyard, and there was a sign at the entrance, which clearly said "Tourists stop".

After seeing this sign, Gu Xiaoxian became even more curious, and was able to enter the inner courtyard, which didn't look like a liar. But she really couldn't figure out what the old Zen master wanted to see her? It couldn't be to see her bones Qingqi, and she wanted to be accepted as a disciple, right? This is not right, she is a female doll, and this is not a nunnery.

Xiao Shami didn't know Gu Xiaoxian's careful thoughts, he took Gu Xiaoxian through the layers of courtyards, and finally stopped in front of a very remote house, and bowed lightly to Gu Xiaoxian, saying, "Donor, when you arrive, the family teacher is inside." ”

With that, the little novice turned around and knocked softly on the door, "Knock knock." ”

"Master, the person you are looking for has already been brought. Xiao Shami said respectfully.

"Come in. An old but powerful voice rang out.

Gu Xiaoxian looked at Xiao Shami again, Xiao Shami nodded at her slightly, and made a gesture of invitation, Gu Xiaoxian pushed the door and walked in.

There is a strong sandalwood fragrance in the meditation room, and the decoration is minimalist, but it is antique. The old Zen master looks old, but he is still healthy, he sits cross-legged on the futon, reciting scriptures, and there is a feeling of treasure.

Gu Xiaoxian couldn't help but bow deeply, and asked softly: "Hello old Zen master, I don't know what the old Zen master is looking for me?"

Only then did the old Zen master open his eyes, looked at Gu Xiaoxian, and said, "Donor, please take a seat." ”

Gu Xiaoxian nodded and sat down on the futon opposite the old Zen master.

The tea on the table was already boiling, and the old Zen master did not talk to Gu Xiaoxian, but carefully rinsed the tea sets one by one with boiling water, and then put in the tea leaves, washed the tea, and brewed it...... Step by step methodically.

Gu Xiaoxian looked at it and didn't interject, always feeling that in the face of such a master, it would be very impolite to interject casually.

The old Zen master brewed the tea and handed a bowl to Gu Xiaoxian.

"The old Zen master hasn't said anything about me?" Gu Xiaoxian didn't drink tea, but asked again.

"Don't hide it from the donor, there is something on you, which is what the poor monk has been looking for for many years. Only then did the old Zen master open his mouth to explain the reason.

"What is it?" Gu Xiaoxian was puzzled, she was just an ordinary student, what could she have on her?

"Yes, a coffin. The old Zen master continued.

"......" Gu Xiaoxian was a little speechless, an old Zen master who looked highly respected, what he had been looking for for many years turned out to be a coffin?

Speaking of which, she does have a small coffin, but it is only the size of a palm, and it is also a display she bought when she went to the ancient town a few days ago. Could it be that little coffin or something that can't be done?

If you really want to say that it is a treasure, when Gu Xiaoxian bought it at that time, there was indeed a strange thing!

This happened a month ago......

It was supposed to be night, and she was wandering around the ancient town, and she stumbled past a narrow alley, the buildings on both sides of the alley looked like they were many years old, and many local residents would sell souvenirs in their yards, and the same was true of this small alley.

Gu Xiaoxian just walked into an inconspicuous shop at random, and the store only sold some gadgets, which were all common things in the scenic spots. At that time, she didn't pay much attention to it, but when she was about to leave, she saw a small coffin in the room, only the size of a palm, carved with intricate patterns, and exquisite workmanship, but it was only randomly placed in the corner of the display shelf, and it was already covered with dust.

Others think that the coffin is unlucky, but Gu Xiaoxian is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, but thinks it is very interesting, and didn't the ancients also pay attention to promotion and wealth. Although the price made her a little painful, she still didn't hesitate and bought this small coffin.

It's just that after this, a small accident added a bit of mystery to this coffin......

I still remember that at that time, it was very late when Gu Xiaoxian returned to the homestay, and she walked slowly to the rented homestay while wiping the dust on the coffin.

"Ah!" With a scream, Gu Xiaoxian, who was not concentrating on walking, fell into the mud, and his nose made intimate contact with the earth, which was sour...... Even if I think about it now, I can't do without it!

At that time, Gu Xiaoxian's palms and legs and knees rubbed a long distance on the ground, and the small coffin naturally came out of his hands and rolled to the ground.

What is called happiness and sadness, Gu Xiaoxian really experienced it.

The nose was so sour that Gu Xiaoxian's tears couldn't stop flowing down, it wasn't that she loved to cry, it was completely an instinctive reaction of her body.

At that time, there were many kind-hearted tourists to help her, although the time was not early, but it was also a scenic spot, and there were many people passing by.

In fact, Gu Xiaoxian also had skin injuries, falling on the ground or something, and it was not the first time for her, so she just touched her sour nose, wiped the liquid suspected of being nosebleeds, pretended to be calm and picked up the small coffin that flew out of the distance, and limped away from the scene of the incident.

Gu Xiaoxian only felt ashamed at the time, and she didn't notice anything unusual about the coffin.

And the whole thing is strange here, when Gu Xiaoxian returned to the B&B and cleaned the wound, he originally wanted to wash the blood stains on the small coffin, but found that there was no trace of blood on the coffin at all.

But she clearly remembered that when she first returned to the B&B, she saw that it was stained with blood, why was there no time for a while?

Gu Xiaoxian looked at her palms in a daze, the palms of her hands were scratched, and she wiped her nosebleeds with her bare hands, this small coffin that she had been holding in her hand did not have a trace of blood?

She also thought of a lot of ghost stories at that time, and felt that this coffin seemed to be a little evil.

When she picked up the small coffin again, she found that the lid was loose, and her jaw was about to fall off!
