Chapter 393: Grave Placement

My sudden divine chatter made Li Chong's father and daughter and the person carrying the coffin breathe a sigh of relief, obviously they were frightened by Yin Wushen just now.

After Zhao Mingli had already been taken in by the hour, the surrounding ghosts didn't dare to come over to join in the fun, afraid that we would really hurt them. It's good that the ghosts don't have to gossip around the neighborhood.

In fact, it is not so strange that Zhao Mingli was taken in by Xiao, after all, Zhao Mingli's Yin is not particularly powerful, and it is not difficult for Xiao to deal with a Yin Soul like her that is not particularly powerful. If Zhao Mingli is allowed to run away, then it means that the father who has followed him for more than ten years has learned in vain, and it is just a matter of subduing a little ghost, which is very simple.

When the sun set on the West Mountain, we finally arrived at Jiukailing, a ridge is not as big as a mountain. In particular, there are not many trees in Jiukailing, all of them are a low twisted tree, and in the middle of the middle of the mountain ridge facing west, you can see some newly excavated soil, among which is a tomb that has been dug up a long time ago.

Twist tree, in the countryside on our side there is a known little ghost tree!

The ghost tree is generally said to be a locust tree, which has been mentioned before when I saw the big locust tree in Wang Village, but the small ghost tree is not a locust tree, but a twisted tree.

The twisted tree is generally only one meter tall, has many branches, has no trunk, and grows into a clump shape. In general, if the soil is not fertile, the kulla tree will grow into a relatively short clump. This tree is called a small ghost tree because it has always been more common in the mountains and graves in the mountains, and when the leaves fall off close to the graves, it looks like a small ghost on the side of the grave, and it will make some creaking sounds in the late autumn and winter when the wind is strong. It is precisely because of this that the twisted tree has the title of the little ghost tree.

The reason why we say late autumn and winter is because most of the leaves fall off in the southerly zone on cold days, which is related to the difference in climate between the north and the south. For example, the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed early, but now I just feel a little cool, and I wear short sleeves.

To get back to the point, the tomb faces due west and sits in the middle of a mountain range, and under the undulating veins, it is like sitting and watching the dusk. There is no shelter in front of the tomb, there is a taste of the world, and the overall feeling is a good tomb.

This is my opinion, but I am not a feng shui master, Yin Wushen is a feng shui master of the mountain school, and I am not worthy of lifting her shoes when looking at the trend of the mountains and finding the dragon point. But she didn't say anything, and it looked like she was looking at something ordinary, as if she was talking about this tomb, and there was nothing to say if it wasn't bad or bad.

"Wait for the Dinglong incense to burn before being buried!"

Looking at the people carrying the coffin, they were also quite tired, and the long incense in their hands would burn out in about ten minutes, so they found an excuse for them to rest for a while. Speaking of which, I was also quite tired, whether I walked up or down ten kilometers or a mountain road that was not easy to walk, and my feet were very hot in my shoes.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard my words, no matter how good the physical strength of the eight big men carrying the coffin was, they would be tired and panicked, and after putting the coffin down smoothly, Li rushed to give them cigarettes. These coffin bearers brought water, but we were so abrupt that we didn't bring any water, but fortunately we were not thirsty.

There is a shovel here, and there is a stone tablet that has been made, as long as the coffin is buried and a stick of incense is put on, let Li Chong's father and daughter kowtow or something, and it's over. I don't have any special arrangements for the whole process, if someone else arranges it, there must be a lot of details to care about, and I got Li Chong's simple consent, so the simplicity of the purchase is in accordance with the wishes of the owner's family, if I have to do it according to the customs of Tai'an County, I will, these are not too difficult. It's just that each family has its own practice, even in the small Tai'an County, there are hundreds of funeral methods, speaking of which are all people's customs, not the Tao itself to pay attention to.

The most important thing in the funeral is to bury the dead comfortably, not in a place like the underworld. The second is to make the ghost satisfied, and if he is satisfied, he will not find trouble with his relatives. The third is that the face of the master's family is passable. After all, the funeral is also a matter for the family of the deceased, and they also pay attention to the outside world.

"The sun is going down, if you don't hurry, see this wind blowing north and clouds in the south, and it may rain at night." A coffin bearer looked at the sky.

I also looked at the sky when he said this, and if a large cloud came from the south, it would probably rain by then. I didn't have any ambiguity about this, and just asked them to put the coffin in and bury it.

Under my coffin, which had no red tape, the coffin was filled in a two-meter-deep tomb. It's really like what the old ghost said before, the soil here is really easy to shovel, there are not too many stones to hinder the shovel, and the eight big men filled up a one-and-a-half-meter-wide, two-meter-long, one-and-a-half-meter-high, frontal triangular tail-tip long grave in less than five minutes, and the perimeter was modified, and a "back soil" was placed on the right side of the back of the tomb, which was buried with a photo frame with Zhao Mingli. As soon as the stele is erected in front of the tomb, the tomb is ready.

The long grave with a triangular front is a custom on our side, and there is also a habit to see it, but most of the country is round. In fact, in this area, there are many mountains on our side, because the mountains themselves have slopes, and the downward erosion of rainwater and the rain falling from above will easily cause changes to the tombs, and over time it is easy to become the shape of the grave with a sharp tail and a wide head, and mud will appear on both sides of the tomb, so it becomes this kind of tomb. In the changing times, we have come to think that the tomb should be of this shape.

Now that we've talked about the shape of the grave, let's talk about "Houtu"!

The so-called "back soil" is a small mound of graves placed behind the grave, and from the front of the grave, relying on the identification of the left and right of the man and the woman, the deceased is a man, and the "back soil" is placed on the left, and if it is a woman, it is on the right. The meaning of "Houtu" is the meaning of "blessing future generations", and there is nothing particular about the things placed inside, as long as it is reasonable and reasonable, it can be placed in it. Generally, when worshipping the tomb, the main tomb is enshrined first and then the "Houtu" is enshrined, according to the words of the older generation, this is called "let the ancestors remember to take care of the descendants", because the worship of the "Houtu" is to let the ancestors come to the "Houtu" side, if the ancestors eat the "Houtu" things, it is necessary to take care of their descendants, is such an explanation.

Of course, the words are spoken by men, but in our Word we do not approve of these non-existent things. It's like a simple blessing, if you want to let your ancestors bless you, do you want the ghost to help you? People and ghosts have different paths, ghosts help you, you are a long life!

"The grave has been made, and we will not go back with you. Boss Li, remember to turn over the salary. ”

After burying the coffin, one of the eight coffin bearers said when Li Chong and Li Ziyue covered the grave paper.

Li Chong naturally has nothing to say, and others naturally have to pay for helping him do things. I just didn't expect the other party to leave first, and seeing that the smell of dusk was getting stronger and stronger, I hurriedly said, "Wait for us, let's go together." ”

After speaking, he hastily covered the grave paper in his hand, smiled and took Li Ziyue to follow the eight people carrying the coffin.

Presumably Li Chong was scared, it would be strange if he walked at night in the barren mountains and mountains at night. And Li Ziyue is still a girl who has just turned eighteen, so it's strange that she can feel at ease in this environment, so Li Chong is not only for himself, but also for Li Ziyue, otherwise he wouldn't have left without knocking his head. However, he doesn't believe in ghosts, and it's normal not to care too much about those details, just like the old saying goes--- people die in vain. In the eyes of people who don't believe in ghosts and gods, these so-called etiquettes can be ignored.

Now that I have been buried, my work is over, Li Chong and Li Ziyue didn't care much about us, but rather flattered the eight people who carried the coffin before. Maybe in his opinion, these eight big men are the most reliable now, after all, everyone in the barren mountains and mountains can also take care of it a little, even if you don't believe that there are ghosts in this world, you should believe that there are bad people in this world.

I shrugged my shoulders in my heart, and followed them when I was still five or six meters away from them.

Maybe it's because it's going to rain, the wind is blowing, and the wind blows those twisted trees and makes a "creak~" sound like a little ghost. Feel the coolness in the wind, if the wind stops a little, it will rain, this is the "mountain rain is coming and the wind is full of buildings" solution, in many weather, the cool breeze will rain when it stops. Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that it will rain before we return to the plains, and it will inevitably rain without preparing an umbrella.

As the sun goes down completely, the only light that can be given to us is some afterglow after setting.

When I looked at Li Chong in front of me with the silent Li Ziyue and the eight people who carried the coffin before, I looked at Yin Wushen who had the taste of watching a drama on the side and said, "What did you find out before, why do you look a little profound?" I didn't see you talking when I was buried. ”

The sound was not loud, so naturally I didn't want Li Chong in front of them to hear it.

Judging from the changes before and after Li Chong before, he may have hidden something, because he didn't pay attention to it because he had something to do before, but now that the matter is done, he also wants to inquire about what Yin Wushen found before.

As always, he didn't say anything, just listened to us talking. A yellow talisman in his hand was held to bind Zhao Mingli, and after I asked Yin Wushen, he handed the yellow talisman into my hand.

Yin Wushen faced my question as if it were white to me, and said disdainfully: "Are you interesting to the old lady, how did you look at it intentionally or unintentionally along the way." If so, just confess, the old lady just rejected you generously. ”

“......”

This sentence left me speechless, and even the dull hours were almost made unsteady by this speech.

How could such a smart woman not know why I looked at her so often, and came to tease me knowingly, if I hadn't known that she teased me a lot, and with immunity, it is estimated that she would almost fall to the ground as when she was a child.

What a girl, so beautiful, why do you always come to tease me? It's weird.

"Hurry up, don't say it's pretending to be profound, don't you just want to get my attention." I gave her a blank look, and I spoke with a little joke. This is also because she jokes with me a lot, I will joke with her, if Lin Yuexin is a serious person to me, I don't dare to joke, otherwise the wrong joke will become a joke.

Yin Wu gave me a deep white look, and her beautiful eyes glanced at me, "you." ”
