Chapter 40: The Cry in the Coffin
Fu Guibao carried a lantern without candles, looked left and right, and wanted to find a leeward place, preferably with a big tree or something, he could lean against the big tree and sleep.
There were no candles in the lantern, and he could only look for it by the moonlight, and the cemetery was very large, on a small gentle slope, the gentle slope was not high, and the slope was full of graves, and below the slope were woods, but the trees were not very high.
Fu Guibao hesitated, there is no grave at the bottom of the slope, then it can be regarded as out of the cemetery, then the competition does not count, in case Li Rizhi cheats and says no, then wouldn't he have stayed up all night against the tree under the slope!
Thinking of this, Fu Guibao hurriedly turned around and wanted to ask Li Rizhi, but when he turned around, he found that Li Rizhi was gone, and the cemetery behind him was pitch black, and there was no figure!
Fu Guibao was not afraid, and he didn't think he would be afraid, wasn't it a cemetery, what's the big deal, he would definitely not be afraid of ghosts!
However, when he was really immersed in the scene and stood alone in the cemetery, especially when there was no light around him, only a little moonlight, as soon as a small cool breeze blew, goosebumps appeared all over his body in an instant!
Immediately, Fu Guibao's legs were weak, he really never thought that it was so terrible for a person to stand in the graveyard, he now has a feeling, that is, there seems to be something behind him, could it be that there is a ghost standing behind him?
In order to give himself courage, Fu Guibao pulled his neck and screamed, he didn't dare to look back, he only dared to pull his neck and scream, the sound of screaming was very sharp, it is estimated that if there is really a ghost, if he is not scared away, he will have to be stunned!
In the distance, Li Rizhi heard Fu Guibao's shout, sighed, he took out the spare candle from his arms, inserted it into the lantern, and then lit the candle with flint, carrying the candle, intending to return the same way!
Fu Guibao's shout was very long, Li Rizhi was deeply impressed, it seemed that Fu's lungs were very strong, and he could hold on for such a long time with a scream, but he didn't have the slightest interest, and accompanied Fu to go crazy here!
Li Rizhi planned to carry the lantern back to the academy, sleep for a night, and come back tomorrow when it was almost dawn, and then announced to Fu Guibao that he was the winner, he believed that at that time, Fu Guibao was either stunned under a certain tree, or curled up in a leeward place crying his nose, it is estimated that these are the two results!
Li Rizhi turned his head, looked at the place where Fu Guibao shouted loudly, nodded heavily, and sure enough, he was a man, he was still shouting, admire!
Fu Guibao finally finished shouting, and he found that after shouting like this, he was really not too scared, it seems that shouting can really make people bold!
He thought about it, he better go to the woods down the slope, find a big tree to lean on, Li Rizhi doesn't know where to run, it won't be a grave that he faints in!
Fu Guibao descended the gentle slope and came to a small grove, which was not far from the road where he and Li Rizhi came, but a few trees blocked the road, but because of this, the position he was standing on was quite leeward, and now he only had to find a tree to lean on.
Suddenly, Fu Guibao found that there was a large black thing under the tree, like a boulder, so it should be quite comfortable to go next to this boulder or lie on it!
Fu Guibao took a closer look and found that it was not a boulder, but a coffin!
The coffin is placed in the cemetery, it should not be buried, at this time the people are superstitious, thinking that the burial is also to have an auspicious time, if there is no one on the same day, then it can only be found the next day, so the coffin is not a big deal in the cemetery, anyway, this thing is not afraid of losing.
Fu Guibao approached the coffin, he didn't know if there were dead people here, but he hesitated for a moment, and decided to leave, although he was bolder than Li Rizhi, but he really didn't need to stay on the side of the dead for a night, even if it was leeward here!
But he had just decided to leave, and before he could turn around, he heard a voice from inside the coffin, and it seemed that someone was talking!
In an instant, Fu Guibao's scalp was about to explode, and he only felt that his hair stood up, this must be a ghost, that's right, can people lie in a coffin and talk, a coffin is not for living people at all!
Frightened, Fu Guibao began to scream again, but this time he didn't scream lightly, but shouted: "Ghosts, there are really ghosts, help, help!" β
The shouting pierced through the sky, and the night was already silent, but he shouted so sharply that it was estimated that his shouts could be heard within a radius of three miles!
The sudden fear made his legs and feet sore for a while, as if he was nailed to the ground, he couldn't move, he could only scream in fright, and there was no other movement, if he wanted to return to normal, he was afraid for a while!
On the path, Li Rizhi heard the shout, and was furious in his heart, really, don't play if you can't afford it, you really called a ghost, look at this little guts, what the ghost is not a ghost, what is the ghost called, even if there is a ghost, he is scared away!
But angry to angry, Li Rizhi still carried the lantern, turned back to the cemetery, he shouted loudly: "Scream, what is it called, and it is so ugly, if you call it again, even if you lose!" β
Fu Guibao suddenly saw him come back, and for a while, he just wanted to thank the sky, the earth, and the ancestors of the Fu family, they finally heard their own shouts, so they asked Li Rizhi to save themselves, and he forgot to ask why Li Rizhi carried a lantern with a candle in his hand!
Li Rizhi came to him and shouted: "What's the howl, we're here to compare our guts, not to compete anyone's voice!" β
He squatted down, picked up a small branch from the ground, handed it to Fu Guibao, and said, "Here you go, take it!" β
With his companion by his side, Fu Guibao was not as scared as he was just now, he stopped screaming, but his voice was already a little hoarse, hoarse, he asked: "What are you giving me this, the branches are so thin and so short, it can't be used to fight ghosts!" β
Li Rizhi snorted and said, "It's for you to shave your ass, you must be so scared that you pull your pants, so give you this branch and let you shave clean!" β
Fu Guibao was stunned, he couldn't help touching his buttocks, fortunately, he didn't pull his pants in fright, he said, "I didn't pull my pants!" At this time, he didn't care about being ridiculed by Li Rizhi, but pointed to the coffin and said, "Look, what is this?" β
Li Rizhi turned around, lifted the lantern and took a photo, and said, "It's a coffin, what's wrong, is there a ghost in it?" I heard that ghosts are this thing, female ghosts are more powerful, more terrifying, do you guess this is a female ghost or a male ghost? β
Fu Guibao was a little trembling, but he was not as scared as he was just now, he said: "Someone in this coffin just now spoke, it's true, I heard it!" β
Li Rizhi smiled again: "Are you leaving, as soon as you turned around, you heard a voice in the coffin, so I looked back, how many times did you turn around, from which shoulder did you turn your head?" β
Fu Guibao didn't understand what was going on, but seeing that Li Rizhi didn't care, he couldn't help but hurriedly said: "Why don't you believe my words, I really heard the voice!" β
Li Rizhi still smiled: "It seems that there are two bright lights on people's shoulders, at night, these two lights are on, although people themselves can't see it, but ghosts can see it, these two lights are very bright, ghosts are afraid of light, so they don't dare to get close to people, so ghosts often call people behind their backs, as long as people turn around, the light on their shoulders will be extinguished, if both lights are extinguished, then ghosts will take advantage of the void and invade people, so how many times have you turned around?" β
He was talking about ghosts, and he was smiling, plus this is a cemetery, this situation and this person are really scary, making people feel frightened, Fu Guibao is no exception, he only found that Li Rizhi was holding a lantern in his hand, so he wanted to ask, why does Li Rizhi still have candles?
But at this moment, there was another sound in the coffin, and there were two clicks, and I heard a voice talking, and the voice was quite clear, and it turned out to be help!
Fu Guibao began to tremble again, pointed to the coffin, and stammered: "Ghost, ghost, I'm right, there is a ghost, calling for help!" β
Li Rizhi was also startled, but he didn't believe in ghosts, and he didn't believe in ghosts in the world, so he was just startled, but he wasn't so afraid.
Li Ri knew: "I also heard clearly, I was calling for help, since it was called help, it was not a ghost!" You think, why did you become a ghost, it's because you have no life, your life is gone, what else can you save, it's right to ask for a life, so you don't have to be afraid! β
He carried the lantern and walked to the coffin, and by the light in the lantern, he checked the coffin and said: "This coffin has not been nailed yet, there should be no funeral goods in it, and this coffin is not heavy, it is a thin skin coffin, so it may be temporary, and it will be replaced with a good coffin when it is buried." β
Fu Guibao slowly rubbed over and said, "You, aren't you afraid?" β
Li Rizhi glanced at him and said, "What is there to be afraid of, this is a person, not a ghost!" I guess he was sick and dying, and he was in a coma for a while, so his family thought he was dead, so the coffin stopped here, but in fact, the people inside were not dead! β
As he spoke, he asked Fu Guibao to carry a lantern to illuminate it, and he personally pushed the coffin lid, the coffin lid did not have nails, and it was not heavy, so under his force, it was slowly opened!
Li Rizhi looked into the coffin and saw a young man lying inside, about seventeen or eighteen, wearing okay clothes, it was muslin, not a silk shirt, and it was initially estimated that he should not be a rich man, so maybe it would be better if this coffin did not need to be replaced.
The coffin lid opened, the air entered the coffin, and the person lying inside was awake, caressed the edge of the coffin, sat up slowly, and also saw Li Rizhi, and Fu Guibao carrying a lantern behind Li Rizhi!
The young man said, "Iβwhere am I?" β
"You are in the coffin, and now the mortuary is in the cemetery, it is estimated that you will be buried tomorrow, you wake up at this time, you are lucky, if it is one night later, it is estimated that tomorrow you will have to be nailed to the coffin and buried alive!" Li Rizhi said very seriously.
The young man said: "It's strange, am I dead, I remember seeing a monster, and I'm still alive, what the hell is going on?" β
