170 Lonely Souls on the Road
I greedily enjoy the precious last moments of "reunion" with fellow relatives (in fact, only I can feel the existence of fellow relatives, but fellow relatives cannot feel the slightest bit of my vitality). I wish I could hold the tail of time, but the noise of the next morning was unstoppable.
Today, all the family and friends are up very early. Because, today is a special day for me to go to the crematorium in the ice coffin. Since the day of the cremation began, we people here have been used to rushing early. It is said that the first person to go there was able to win a good fortune. I don't know where this new custom came from. However, I think this statement is ridiculous. Is it possible to burn the remains of one's loved ones to ashes in a hurry, and you can hand in good luck? This is definitely a ridiculous thing in the world! Now, I hate this so-called new custom even more! Because, this funny custom will accelerate the pace of my real "death".
"Alas, perhaps, it won't be long before I have to say goodbye to my relatives." I thought to myself with great chagrin. From the mouths of the immortals, I can judge that whether they are led to the "underworld" or stay in the "ghost realm" without other guidance, they will no longer be able to get any contact with their relatives in the "yang world". In fact, what I am most afraid of is not "death", but "farewell to my loved ones". "I really can't bear my relatives!" I mourn in my heart!
Soon, many people gathered in the house. However, there were not many people who went with them. In addition to the support personnel who had to go to the military band and the coffin, the rest of the people who went were all relatives and friends who were close to me. Amid the sound of gongs and drums and earth-shaking trumpets, the ice coffin on which I was lying was slowly lifted onto the hearse. At this moment, I was a little annoyed by the annoying sound of military music, because it was so strict that it interfered with my hearing tracking. Fortunately, my mental strength is extremely strong, otherwise, I would have to temporarily announce that I have lost contact with my relatives.
The deafening sound of firecrackers was followed by drumming. This situation makes me feel very depressed. "Is it really such a festive thing to send me to be cremated?" Instantly, however, I comforted myself, "Well, why am I bothering myself? This is our funeral custom, but is it aimed at me alone? ”
People are so strange, the same thing to others or to oneself, those are definitely two different feelings. If this were someone else's funeral, I would have thought, "That's the custom!" However, no matter how much I emphasize that "customs are like this" on my head, I still feel the slightest bit unhappy in my heart.
In the midst of depression, the car finally moved forward slowly. From what I heard, I was able to realistically sketch out the situation along the road in my mind. Because this is the place where I was born and raised, of course I can't be more ripe!
When I came to the river, I felt a familiar chill. Oh, it turned out to be a lonely ghost wandering in the wilderness. Suddenly, I was enveloped in darkness. However, I did not lose my light, because I could not see anything in the first place. On the contrary, I was able to regain my sight because of the darkness.
I saw some vague and floating ghosts standing here and there in the distance, and they all looked at me aimlessly, because of my appearance, and then they all salivated and pounced on them like rats seeing rice.
"My god! When will I become Tang monk meat? Why did they see me all in this picture of a starving ghost reincarnated? Oh, sorry, I forgot they were ghosts in the first place. I thought to myself, and then smug again, "Haha, you idiots! I'm a newborn ghost! Hehe, wait for you to suffer! Thinking of the infinitely powerful natal yang qi that erupted from my body before, I couldn't help but sneer in my heart, "Hehe, don't be afraid of the soul scattering, you bastards just come!" ”
Unfortunately, this time, these lonely ghosts did not rush to my side as they wished. Because, unlike the last time I came back from the hospital, this time, there are special people along the road who are responsible for throwing yellow paper. Originally, I couldn't see it, but in that dark space, suddenly something shining with golden light appeared. It seemed to be piecemeal.
"Could it be that those are the 'paper money' that was thrown away?" Just as I was wondering, the lonely ghosts who had been rushing like wolves stopped one by one. Their eyes shone brightly at the pieces of paper that shone with golden light, just as the most greedy person saw mountains of gold and silver. Then they turned around and frantically scrambled for the falling pieces of golden paper. It seems that those golden pieces of paper can bring them infinite wealth. It's just that I don't seem to have heard the immortals mention it, what role can this paper money play in the "ghost world"? Perhaps, in the eyes of the immortals, the role of this paper money is not worth mentioning at all. So, under the infinite charm of paper money, along the way, every time the evil ghost attacked, I was able to survive without danger.
Of course, there are exceptions to everything, because the amount of yellow paper thrown is limited after all, and it is okay to deal with the few lonely souls who are left alone, however, once you encounter a large number of them, the disadvantages will be exposed.
But where there is a river, there must be a bridge. Finally, we came across the first bridge. Suddenly, I felt the aggravation of the yin qi, which was obviously a harbinger of a large number of yin spirits going out. Anyway, I'm also a little experienced. At this time, I wish the hearse could rush by. Because, from the immortals, I know that the "ghost domain" and the "human world" are actually two sides of the same coin, and ghosts generally have a specific range of activities, as long as I am fast and run out of the sphere of influence of those group yin spirits that have not yet appeared in time, then I am relatively safe.
However, this man is unlucky, and he will stuff his teeth even when he drinks water! The more I tried for them to hurry, the more they slowed down, and finally they simply stopped by the bridge.
I could clearly feel the yin qi around me converging rapidly. As expected, it didn't take long for many fluttering figures to appear in all directions. Although it is slightly lacking in scale compared to the last time the water ghost and underground ghost, it is estimated that it will not be too much less.
"Obediently, there won't be another tough battle to fight, right?" I thought to myself. Although he knew that he would be safe and sound under the protection of his natal yang qi, the feeling of being invaded by the yin and evil qi was very unpleasant
