Chapter Eighty-Four: Returning the Sun
"She's not dead yet!" Perhaps afraid that they would not believe me, I said again: "She is in a state of suspended animation now, Xiao Duo, do you remember the last time we went to the Netherworld? ”
Han Duo's pretty face was full of questions at this time, and she didn't correct the way I called her, so she nodded hurriedly.
Last time, in order to find out if Fu Wenjian was really dead, I left my body and took Han Duo to the Netherworld for a trip.
I slowly opened the body bag on the deceased's body, exposing her entirely, and then helped her against the pomegranate tree.
"Half-immortal, you said she wasn't dead?" The fat man asked with a look of surprise on his face.
I nodded, and said to him and the curious people, "Man is divided into two parts, body and soul. Her current state is an out-of-body experience, in other words, she is only in a state of suspended animation. ”
Probably afraid that these people would not believe it, I hurriedly talked about a few folk ancient times.
In the people, many people have seen this situation. For example, an old man suddenly stopped breathing, and while everyone was helping him prepare for the funeral, he suddenly sat up from the coffin.
Scientifically there is only a vague explanation for this phenomenon, but there are also many people in Taoism who call this phenomenon a return to the light.
Anyone who has experienced this kind of thing will either live a long, long life from now on, or they will actually die in a few days.
Our Maoshan faction calls this phenomenon out-of-body. This phenomenon can happen in people of any age.
There is also a story about a retired soldier, at that time, the country was not so stable, there were many wars, in addition to the invasion from a certain island country, the internal disputes of the people were also constant, it was the time to employ people.
The veteran died mysteriously the next day after receiving a call-up letter from the government. The local government workers, of course, did not believe it, thinking that he was greedy for life and afraid of death, so they wanted to pretend to be dead to evade the draft, so they sent several staff members to investigate the situation.
After the investigators came, the family of the veteran had already begun to prepare for the funeral of the veteran, which was held in the countryside and was not very solemn, and the coffin was placed behind the mourning hall. After the investigators came, several people wanted to open the coffin for an autopsy despite the objections of the families of the soldiers.
Later, the coffin was opened, and when the investigators conducted an autopsy on the serviceman, they found that the veteran had really stopped breathing, so he could only return in vain, but when the veteran's eldest son put the elder's body back in the coffin again, he suddenly felt that the veteran's butt was hot!
After death, the soul is three-dimensional, all physiological functions have stopped, and it will only become more and more stiff, how can there still be temperature?
The veteran's eldest son touched it at the time and didn't say it. At that time, conscription was very serious, not to mention the prime of life, even teenagers. This matter is unknown to everyone, only the eldest son knows.
At that time, burial was still popular, and the body would not be cremated. The eldest son did not immediately ask the family to stop the funeral, but temporarily revised the time of the burial, setting the time half a month later.
A few days later, the eldest son went to check on his father's body, and found that the corpse's buttocks were still hot, and he wondered if his father had changed the way of breathing, not breathing through the mouth and nose of a normal person, but instead of breathing with his buttocks?
At that time, people felt everything and dared to do anything. Anyway, his father's body wasn't completely stiff yet, so he wasn't in a hurry.
In this way, the funeral was postponed for a total of seven days, and on the seventh day, the veteran suddenly lifted the lid of the coffin and ran out of the coffin, and his son and daughter-in-law, who were burning paper for him in front of him, were startled, thinking that they had seen a ghost.
And this veteran suddenly said, "Are those investigators gone?" ”
At this time, the eldest son was the most calm one, answering his father's questions while comforting the others.
Many people are curious about how the veterans managed to fake their deaths at that time? But after all, there were a lot of people who evaded the draft at that time, and everyone didn't pay much attention to it, they just thought that this matter was rather strange.
In ancient times, there was a folk saying, called 'Tou Qi', on the seventh day after the death of the deceased, the soul would come back to take a look, which was regarded as reluctance to the world.
There is a custom of 'Touqi', and even now in many rural areas, it is still popular to go to worship the dead.
In fact, the allusion of the first seven is mainly aimed at those who fake their deaths, if someone fakes their deaths and does not wake up on the seventh day, then most likely they will really die, either starved to death, or buried alive.
I looked at the people around me who were constantly discussing, and continued: "This woman is not really dead yet, if you believe this master, this master suggests waiting for seven days, and after seven days, this master will naturally give you an explanation." ”
It may have happened suddenly, Captain Yang said: "I can't be the master of this matter, I have to report it to the top." ”
I nodded and asked, "Eh, by the way, what about the people who used to hang themselves on this tree?" ”
A few of the villagers were bold enough to say, "It's been buried!" ”
"This ......" I was a little speechless for a moment, and I estimated that the people who were buried were already more than lucky.
Next, I said to Captain Yang: "Captain Yang, if you believe me, I suggest that you open the coffin of the person who once hanged himself from this tree, if these people are really fake death, I believe that they will wake up in seven days, and when the time comes, they will find that they are in the coffin, and they will definitely try to escape!" ”
"I can't be the master of this, I have to ask for instructions from above." Captain Yang said.
He is just a captain, he has to ask for instructions from above, I am not in a hurry, I turned to Han Duo and said with a smile: "Xiao Duo, let's go back first!" I'll give you a gift. ”
Han Duo blinked, looked at me seriously, and then said, "Master Chang, I have a boyfriend." ”
"What are you afraid of?" I smiled and said, "I will definitely be a qualified husband!" ”
Han Duo obviously still repels me a little, although she is sometimes very arrogant, but in this matter, her attitude is very persistent.
I am also not ambiguous, while Captain Yang is waiting for the order from above, I have launched a ferocious attack on Han Duo in the past few days. I gave the white robe poured out of the mausoleum to Han Duo as a meeting gift, but unfortunately Han Duo didn't ask for it.
I wasn't discouraged and began to send Han Duo all kinds of things.
This kind of remote mountain village is full of wild flowers in the wild, as long as I have time, I will run out to pick some wild flowers, tie them into a delicate bouquet and give them to Han Duo, and Han Duo's breakfast, lunch and dinner, I insist on asking Han Duo to cook in person.
In the mountain village, there is no natural gas, no gas honeycomb coal, all firewood is burned, I insist on getting up at six o'clock every morning to prepare breakfast for Han Duo, so I am not tired.
When Captain Yang received the order, it was already the fifth day, and according to the habits of rural people, the corpse could not be kept at home for more than five days at most, and the order came in time.
On this day, I got up as usual, today I am going to steam steamed buns for Han Duo, there is no shortage of flour in the countryside, but meat is very scarce, the village name of Santai Village only kills pigs once a year, on weekdays, most of the time do not eat meat, to eat bacon is also to eat.
I asked the fat man to go to the town to buy some fresh meat and come back, chop it with some garlic and mustard, and then use it as a meat filling, and slowly steam a large pot of meat buns.
Han Duo didn't live in the same courtyard as me, she and their police people set up some temporary camps at the head of the village, and now that the country is open, the government staff can't take a stitch from the peasants.
By the time I arrived at Han Duo's residence with a bamboo basket, she had already gotten up and washed.
"Master Chang, why are you still here!" When Han Duo saw me, he didn't have the kind of joy I wanted, but said to me: "I've told you many times, I already have a boyfriend, and it will bother me a lot if you do this." ”
"It's fine!" I smiled and said, "You should treat me as your friend." ”
In order to be able to catch up with Han Duo, the big guys all gave me tricks, whether it was the fat man or Captain Yang's village name, they all taught me their love experiences. I think that you can't be too impatient at the moment, Captain Yang is right, any boyfriend and girlfriend are developed from ordinary friends.
"Here's the breakfast I made for you, and it was delicious." I put the bamboo basket on the ground and exited Han Duo's residence.
They all built tents, some simply used local materials and built a small wooden shed with some branches, Han Duo is a woman, so she lives in a tent.
As soon as I came out, Captain Yang pulled me aside, I looked in the direction of the tent where Han Duo lived, my stalking in the past few days was not completely useless, at the beginning I sent Han Duo food, she either let other people eat it, or return it to me as it was, and now she has begun to eat the food I cooked.
It was a good start, and I decided to keep going, but she still wouldn't accept the flowers I gave her, and the white robe hadn't been given out yet. Although the white robe is something worn by female ghosts, it is also a treasure, and I think it will definitely look good on Han Duo.
"The order from above has come down to allow us to open the coffin for an autopsy." Captain Yang said to me.
I didn't answer Captain Yang, but watched Han Duo chew slowly and eat the meat bun I was serving her, and my heart was sweet.
The autopsy was scheduled for noon, and Dao Xuan Zhenren suggested that it should be done in the evening, but Captain Yang was eager to solve the case and give an explanation to the above, so it was scheduled for noon.
Evening is the time of yin and yang, and yang and yin are relatively even, which is the most suitable for lifting the coffin, so that it will neither disturb the dead nor bring much harm to the living.
The matter of opening the coffin and examining the autopsy is the responsibility of Dao Xuan Zhenren, although Xianzong is not very good at subduing demons and exorcising ghosts, but he is very good at doing things.
Because Han Duo was also going, I also went. [ban^fusheng]. Starting
Dao Xuan Zhenren placed a downfall in front of a newly buried tomb and performed a vigorous ritual. I have to say that the sutras do things very exaggeratedly and objectively, but they are also very thorough in arranging the formation.
"Lift the coffin!" With an order from Dao Xuan Zhenren, several men jumped into the pit and tied the coffin with a rope, and then the people above began to pull, and soon pulled the coffin out of the coffin well.
Han Duo was in charge of maintaining order at the scene, and I didn't wear my handsome clothes today, but a very simple one, ordinary people just sat around and watched the excitement, but the police didn't let them get close, except for me, of course.
I walked to the edge of the coffin with Dao Xuan Zhenren, and Dao Xuan Zhenren sprinkled a handful of talisman paper on the coffin, and then recited some incantations, which allowed people to open the museum.
It is worth mentioning that the place where the people of Santai Village buried the local dead is unified, this is a grove, and this coffin is buried on the top of the grove, and the feng shui location is of course said by Dao Xuan Zhenren.
This location is not good, but at least it can ensure the safety and security of future generations, and it is an ordinary burial pit.
With the opening of the coffin lid, the whole forest suddenly sounded the cries of countless birds and insects, a large number of birds fluttered their wings and flew away quickly, and some voles and pheasants in the grove also quickly rushed out, for a while, the whole forest was not lively.
