Chapter 480: The Mystery of the Walking Corpse
After the sedan chair arrives at the woman, the "bride" photo or tablet is taken down by the wife, and the wife takes it over and releases the sedan chair. At this time, the father and mother of the "bride" will inevitably cry loudly and chase them out of the house.
It's not a happy atmosphere at all.
After the sedan chair returns to the man, the wife still takes out the photo or tablet of the "bride" and puts it on the offering table on the kang of the wedding room, which is juxtaposed with the "groom". And tie up the two photos with a red head rope (take the meaning of the red line drawn by the old moon), and reuse the red and yellow colored silk.
Only when the wife of the marriage gives the whole god "100 percent" incense and kowtows, even if the husband and wife worship heaven and earth. Then the teahouse will bring "a cup of wine", "dumplings for children and grandchildren", and "longevity noodles" for the "newlyweds" in front of the photo or tablet. If the "newlyweds" have younger siblings or younger siblings, brothers-in-law, etc., they will be called out and kowtow to the photo or tablet.
The two in-laws said hello to each other - brains make up the scene at that time, which is actually very funny and very sad.
After the above ceremonies are held, a "auspicious day of the zodiac" will be chosen, and the woman will be able to break the ground and bury. According to the time designated by Mr. Yin and Yang, after the coffin was lifted, he immediately poured a bucket of water in the pit and threw down two apples.
At the same time, raise the red paper money high. (The same is true for initiation ceremonies that are not for yin marriages.)
The man digs a hole on the side of the grave, exposes the groove of the "groom" coffin, buries the "bride" in this hole, and buries the "husband and wife" together. After the burial, that is, in front of the grave, the wine and fruit are displayed, the red paper money is incinerated, and the marriage sacrifice is held. The father and mother of both the man and the woman and other family members (that is, the two in-laws) cried and said "great joy".
Since then, men and women have been treated as in-laws.
To this day, twilight marriage is still prevalent in most rural areas, and no matter whether the family is rich or poor, parents will try their best to find a "ghost daughter-in-law" for their dead unmarried son. There is also a folk saying that if you don't "marry" the dead unmarried, the home will be haunted and the family will be restless.
As far as I know, at present, in our area, families with general conditions in rural areas, the general dowry is about 100,000 yuan, some are 88,000, some are 166,000, in short, an auspicious number, but the "price" of the corpse of a girl who died unexpectedly is more than 100,000 yuan, and some can reach 200,000 yuan.
That's what the man in the dark suit means.
Director Qin's face also changed, and he asked Miaozhen and Dao Ji tremblingly: "Both of them are masters of the world, can you see who controls the two corpses, and what purpose they are doing this?"
I thought this was a piece of cake for these two masters, but I didn't expect them to shake their heads almost at the same time.
"Western magic is completely different from Chinese magic, and I only know a little bit about it, but ...... But if I can see with my own eyes how the two bodies left, I might be able to get a glimpse."
As soon as Miao Zhen opened her mouth, she had the tone of a little girl, and I still can't believe that she is seventy-one years old.
"Yes...... It was three bodies, and one more was missing last night. The man in the dark suit reminded in a whisper.
Director Qin patted his forehead vigorously: "That's right! My brain is getting worse and worse, I don't blame Director Guo for this, it's me who made him have another case of missing corpses in the museum, and he can't call the police, he can only tell me - go! Let's go and see if the other corpse has left any clues. ”
Today I have learned a lot, and it is the first time I have heard that the morgue of the funeral home is divided into a general morgue and a VIP morgue, and of course, it is also the first time to enter the VIP morgue.
it! It is still a single room, and there is a sofa and a coffee table, the sofa is still leather, and there is a whole set of tea sets and a box of Longjing on the coffee table. I really want to ask Director Guo on the side, why do you prepare sofas and coffee tables for the dead, is it possible that in the dead of night, it is also when the corpses are homesick, they will quietly get up, and then sit on the sofa to make a cup of tea?
Dao Ji is at the forefront, which makes me feel a little more good about him, not to mention how much ability he has for the time being, at least he is a responsible Taoist priest.
"The situation is exactly the same! Isn't it, Senior Sister? "Nine-zero, look
Miao Zhen also nodded slightly: "The same person or the same group of people did it, but we still can't tell which kind of Western evil art it is." ”
Director Qin looked at me again, this time he didn't speak, but what he wanted to say was all in his eyes.
"I ...... I'll give it a try! ”
This time I am very interesting, after all, I am a department-level cadre, and I am fifty-four years old, and I am a little-known boy who is called a brother, and I can't help but be interested.
I stood in front of the empty morgue, calmed down, and then touched the ring of She in the middle of my left hand with my right hand.
A magical scene ensued.
The corpse in front of him was a thin old man with sunken cheeks...... Suddenly he sat up, paused, twisted his body, and stood up, the whole thing very incoherent and mechanical.
Then he alternated his legs forward, and when he stepped on his left leg, his left arm stretched out, and when he moved his right leg, his right arm stretched out, just in contrast to the habit of swinging his arms when we walked, in our local language, the whole straight.
The skinny old man's corpse walked to the door, his arms stretched out, and the door was pushed open, and I noticed a detail: when he walked and pushed the door, his joints were always straight and straight, not bending, much like the zombies in zombie movies.
Pushing open the door, the corpse left the room in such a rhythmic manner......
After letting go of my hand and everything in front of me returned to normal, I quickly retold the scene I had just seen.
"I'm sure it's a necropsy!"
"The posture of the corpse walking has ruled out the corpse chasing technique in the Xiangxi area, and it seems that it is really a ...... in the Western area."
Miao Zhen turned to me and asked, "Young man, is there any other information?" Didn't smell or hear anything? ”
I was a little uncomfortable to be called "young man" by someone who looked like a little girl who was no more than sixteen or seventeen years old.
"Smells and sounds? I didn't pay attention! ”
The first few times I used She's Ring, almost all of my attention was on my eyes, and I didn't pay attention to the sound and smell at that time, so I had to try again.
It was business as usual, the corpse sat up again in front of my eyes, and repeated the action just now, this time my attention began to shift to my nose and ears, and when the corpse got out of bed, I simply closed my eyes.
I sniffed hard, and there was only formalin and an unpleasant smell in the air, in fact, as soon as I walked into the corridor of the morgue just now, I smelled this smell, to put it bluntly, this kind of smell in this place is considered a "positive smell".
I listened carefully to the movements around me.
"Click-click-click-click"
I don't know where there was a rhythmic "click" sound, the sound was very low, but I heard it clearly, I hurriedly opened my eyes, and noticed that this rhythmic "click" sound was the same as the rhythm of the corpse's action.
