Chapter 19: The Black Cat is Thrilled
The screams, noises, and cries in the front yard temporarily interrupted the conversation between the two, especially the word "corpse", which was very distinctly transmitted to the side hall.
He Wu couldn't sit still anymore, he jumped up directly like a spring on his buttocks, and said to the little carpenter: "Mr. Gu, I'm sorry, you wait here, I'll go over and take a look and come back." ”
The little carpenter also got up and said, "I'll go with you." ”
He was also quite curious about this matter, and walked out with Gu Baiguo.
The side hall is in the left corner of the front yard, as soon as he goes out, He Wu is worried about the front yard, his steps are hurried, and he quickly rushed to the front of this spiritual shed, he is now the backbone of He Mansion, and quickly rushed into the crowd, shouting: "What's wrong, what's wrong?" Don't panic, what the hell is going on? ”
A bearded man who looked very similar to He Wu, but was younger, greeted him and said with a frightened face: "Big brother, it's not good, there is movement inside the coffin." ”
The little carpenter followed He Wu and came to the door of the spirit shed, and had already seen the middle position under the spirit shed, where there was a large coffin painted black and painted with gold on the edges, but the coffin that was originally parked quietly stopped at this moment, and there was a "bang, bang, bang" impact sound inside, but it was as if someone was hitting the coffin lid with his hand.
According to the custom of the southwest, the coffin was stopped at the funeral shed three days ago, and when it was time to go up the mountain to be buried, the wedge was nailed next to the grave to let the deceased rest in peace.
So at this moment, the coffin lid is not nailed tightly.
As soon as there was force inside, the whole coffin placed on the wooden shelves swayed a little.
Because there was a commotion in the coffin, everyone panicked, even the "filial sons and grandsons" who knelt in the mourning shed and cried their spirits were so frightened that they crawled away a lot, and no one dared to make a movement in the blowing team, and the mourning shed suddenly became sparse.
Those who dared to be next to the coffin were the monks who had invited them to recite the mantra of the past life, and they were guarding the side of the coffin in fear at the moment, chanting peace in their mouths.
It's just that they are helpless against this sudden change, and staying there is just a hard bite to keep the work ethic in their hearts.
He Wu was a filial son, and when he saw this scene, not only did he not panic, but he took his brother's hand in ecstasy.
He shouted excitedly: "Mother is not dead, he is not dead......"
He wanted to step forward, but was stopped by the old brother who looked like him, and several relatives next to him.
His elder brother was obviously much more sober, grabbed He Wu's shoulder, and shouted loudly: "Big brother, big brother, think about it carefully, the doctor Pan at the front door, and the Western doctor brought by Gao Zhihe, have already determined that our mother has passed away, and we have seen it with our own eyes, my mother has already swallowed her breath, her body and bones are sick, and the shroud is still worn by you and our sister-in-law...... How could she still be alive? ”
Brother He Wu's words, like a scoop of cold water, directly woke up He Wu, who was lucky and carried away by ecstasy.
He Wu reacted, thinking of all kinds of strange things recently, and subconsciously asked, "What should I do?" ”
His brother suggested: "Let's find someone to stabilize the coffin, and then go to Qianmen Lane to ask Mr. Zhou to solve the situation, right?" ”
He Wu subconsciously reacted: "It's good to ...... like this"
He was about to give the order to call someone, but a voice came from behind him: "Wait." ”
The one who spoke was none other than the little carpenter.
He stepped forward, looked at the huge coffin, and said softly, "I'll give it a try." ”
The little carpenter kept thinking of Master Lu Da's teachings in the past, and stepped forward, while He Wu was a little skeptical and asked, "Mr. Gu, what are you ......?"
The little carpenter signaled his peace of mind as he walked to the middle of the shed.
At this time, he had to stand up, because although he had already gained He Wu's trust just now, if he wanted to get the wooden talisman and solve the current situation, he had to get He Wu's greatest support.
What's more, at this moment, if he doesn't stand up, the coffin board won't be able to suppress people.
So in the chaos of the field, he didn't hesitate much, and stood up directly and walked to the coffin.
He saluted to the few monks beside him who were holding his hands together, and then with a little left foot, the man jumped onto the black lacquered coffin.
This move is called "climbing the ladder", a first-class light-weight exercise.
After practicing it, it is not a problem to fly the eaves and walk the wall.
Everyone exclaimed, and the little carpenter pointed to the lid of the coffin on tiptoe, but his eyes wandered around, and then fell on the black mass lying on the tail of the coffin.
It was a black cat, with a fine, supple, variegated black hair, and a pair of emerald green eyes.
When the little carpenter saw this, he finally knew why he was having trouble with the old lady.
Black cat thrilling.
He turned his head and asked, "Who brought the cat?" ”
The people left behind in the mourning hall were full of confusion, not knowing what he was talking about, and the little carpenter asked again, and then flew up and kicked towards the black cat, but they never thought that the black cat was very violent, and when he opened his mouth, he bit at the little carpenter, like a raccoon leopard.
One man and one cat staggered, and the black cat was not kicked by the little carpenter, jumped from the side, and then jumped to the exit behind the shed.
It wants to run.
The little carpenter jumped down from above, ready to chase the guy, but unexpectedly, an object rushed out from the side, and suppressed the black cat, and then opened his big mouth, and after a bite, he actually bit off the head of the black cat, and blood was spilled on the spot.
When everyone saw it, they were all shocked, and some people were very frightened when they saw the orange tiger-striped fat cat that bit off the head of the black cat.
Someone raised their weapons, and the butler even raised his gun.
At this time, the little carpenter stopped him: "Don't be nervous, this is what I raised." ”
When Steward Hu saw the fierce tiger-skinned fat cat, he was a little flustered, and his hands trembled uncontrollably: "You, you raised?" ”
The little carpenter nodded firmly: "Yes, I raised, that black cat is an evil thing, and it wants to escape, so it came out and stopped it......"
He Wu had seen a big scene, snatched the pistol from Steward Hu's hand, put it away, and then said to the little carpenter, "Thank you." ”
"Ah......h
Before he could finish his words, there was a sharp cry from the crowd behind him, and the little carpenter sensed that something was wrong, and looked up to see that the lid of the coffin had been lifted on one side.
Immediately after, a hand came out from inside.
What kind of hand is this?
It was as rough as the bark of a dead tree, covered with green tendons like bird's claws, with long, long, pointy nails and black hairs on the palms......
This is to dissolve the stiffness......
The little carpenter once followed Master Lu Da together, and went to the most famous corpse chasing Wang family in Xiangxi Phoenix as a guest for dinner, when listening to their chat, he said this, and immediately knew that it was not good, the old lady in the coffin was disturbed by the black cat, and it had already turned into a corpse, if it was allowed to suck fresh blood, I was afraid that it would be more troublesome.
The little carpenter was not afraid of this new corpse, in fact, with his ability, he directly drew his knife and cut off the head of the corpse, and all the troubles were eliminated.
But such a result is unacceptable for a filial son like He Wu.
Fortunately, when he came over just now, the little carpenter already had a plan in his mind.
That is the core chain of Luban's secret art, unraveling the curse.
He was not afraid of danger, and climbed the ladder again, and the man got on the high coffin lid, kicked the hand back into the coffin, and then pressed the board, bit the middle finger of his right hand, smeared the blood on the lid, and drew three blood circles.
Each blood circle is connected to each other, and then, the little carpenter stepped on the stars, and shouted in his mouth: "Please ask the fox ancestor to retreat, one invites the heavenly master, and the second invites the earth to retreat, the seven spirits and three souls of the people, all the mountain spirits and water monsters, the wizard and the evil demon dare not come, if there is a green face and a white man to make the law, the backhand is staked on the bottom of the sea, I respectfully invite the six stars of the South Dipper, the seven stars of the Big Dipper, I am in a hurry like a law." ”
Under the order, the coffin, which was originally noisy, finally stopped, and there was no movement.
The little carpenter didn't dare to slack off, smeared the seal with blood on his middle finger, and then said to He Wu condescendingly: "When you buy a coffin, do you have a wedge?" Gotta nail it down. ”
He Wu looked at Steward Hu, and Steward Hu said in a panic: "Yes, yes, but I have to let the people from the coffin shop come over." ”
The little carpenter waved his hand and said I would come.
Steward Hu hurriedly left, and soon brought a wooden hammer and a wedge, and the little carpenter took it, dripped a drop of middle finger blood on each wedge, and recited the mantra in his mouth.
He nailed the coffin with a wooden wedge, and then came down, and now the coffin was quiet, and there was no more movement.
The little carpenter finished everything and bowed his hand to He Wu: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored." ”
His actions ushered in a full house of applause, and He Wu admired him even more, but at this time, the little eight who was sent out invited Ma San, who was a gangster in the Laoxi Teahouse, to come over.
The little carpenter took He Wu to confront him, and under Ma San's explanation, He Wu knew the cause and effect, and became more and more convinced of the little carpenter.
Ma San didn't know the reason, and said to the little carpenter: "Big brother, I have also found clues for you, don't you mean it?" ”
The little carpenter hated him for introducing himself to Xu Meiniang's gang of murderers, where to pay attention to this, fortunately, He Wu next to him didn't let Ma Sanbai run away, and asked him to go to get the reward from Steward Hu.
Ma San left, He Wu already admired the little carpenter, and after settling in the front yard, he led the little carpenter to the side hall to talk about things, while Gu Baiguo went to find the tiger skin fat cat.
Just when the two of them were about to meet in the side hall, a person came from not far away and shouted to He Wu: "Brother He, mourn." The little carpenter heard the familiar voice, and turned his head away, but he was frightened.
