Before dark, Gu Ming and Dong Sheng came to Qili Village together.

As soon as I entered the village, I found that the villagers were busy helping to build a mourning hall in the open space in the village.

According to custom, after death, the mourning hall should generally be set up in the hall, including the deceased.

But there are exceptions.

People usually refer to abnormal birth, old age, sickness and death as murderous death.

Ah Zhuang's death is a typical unnatural death, so he cannot enter the hall, and can only set up the mourning hall outside.

"May I ask you two to come to mourn?"

As soon as they saw Gu Ming and the others coming over, someone stepped forward to ask.

"No, we heard about it in the county seat and came here to take a look."

Hearing this, the villagers couldn't help frowning.

"Don't get me wrong, folks, we didn't come to see the excitement, but I heard that Ah Zhuang may have eaten the water mangweed by mistake."

"Water mangweed?"

The villagers were stunned, obviously not having heard of it.

"That's right, the water mangweed is an extremely cold poisonous weed, and it is rare for us to see it here.

If you eat it by mistake, you will die, and you may even become a ...... Water Devil. ”

"Huh?"

The villagers were taken aback.

"Huh? May I ask if this brother is Gu Gongzi of Wenxing Study? ”

A man dressed as a scholar approached and asked.

"Exactly!"

"It's really Gu Gongzi, disrespectful and disrespectful, Xiaosheng Wu Zijing, is a native of this village."

"Oh, Brother Zijing is also a showman?"

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I didn't get into the ...... several times"

"Hehe, it's okay, it's important to insist. By the way, has anything similar happened in your village and nearby villages in recent years? ”

Wu Zijing shook his head: "I haven't heard of similar incidents. ”

After chatting a few words, Wu Zijing ran to inquire and walked back.

"Xiao Sheng inquired, Ah Zhuang is going to the city today to deliver food to a family.

On weekdays, the body has always been relatively strong, and it is rare to suffer from a minor illness. ”

"Well, I'll take a look."

"Okay, I'll take you there."

Wu Zijing enthusiastically took Gu Ming and the others to the side of the mourning hall, and introduced: "This is Gu Gongzi who collected demons in Yuantong Town last time. ”

As soon as they heard this, the villagers hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

For a time, some people called Gu Gongzi, some people called masters, some people called Taoists, and some people called immortals.

The title is not important, in short, it is right to be a superior person in their eyes.

Dong Sheng was unwilling to be left out in the cold, cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, listen, Ah Zhuang should have eaten the water mangweed by mistake."

Maybe you haven't heard of it, but in the Taohuajiang area of Hubei, people are often recruited.

Once you eat this grass by mistake, it is not only as simple as a violent death, but also a water reckless ghost......"

"Hizz~"

The villagers gasped.

Suddenly becoming the focus of everyone's attention, Dong Sheng couldn't help straightening his waist and continued: "Gu Gongzi is kind-hearted, and after hearing about this, he specially came to take a look, in case anything changed. ”

"The surviving Wu family has seen Gu Gongzi, thank you Gu Gongzi."

A woman came forward with a weeping voice.

Gu Ming sighed: "People can't be resurrected after death, and the festival mourns and changes." ”

When it was dark, the villagers spontaneously took out the tables, stools, wine and food at home, accompanied by Wu Zijing, and invited Gu Ming and the two to drink and chat to kill time.

It was almost midnight when Gu Ming walked into the mourning hall.

According to his request, the coffin was only halfway closed, and the head and body parts were lit up so that they could observe the movement.

"Hiss~"

Dong Sheng glanced at it curiously, and his hairs suddenly stood up.

Because Ah Zhuang has changed a lot at this time.

Before, his face was only puffy and pale, but now the surface of the exposed muscles and muscles has dense black lines, like spider webs, which looks extremely terrifying.

Gu Ming was not surprised.

When he received the task of the system, he took it for granted that this matter would not be simple, and some bizarre events would inevitably occur.

Just as he was about to take a closer look, the mutation suddenly changed.

The corpse lying in the coffin instantly turned into stinky tofu, emitting a disgusting stench, and a layer of faintly blackened white hair grew on the surface of the skin.

"My mother, the corpse has changed, Wen Xing run!"

Frightened, Dong Sheng couldn't help but let out a duck cry that seemed to pinch his neck.

"Panic what?"

Gu Ming snorted dissatisfiedly.

"I don't have what you ...... capable of"

Dong Sheng rushed out of the mourning hall quickly.

The villagers who were waiting outside to watch were also frightened and looked for a place to hide.

At this time, the corpse lying in the coffin stood up stiffly, and its eyes showed a red glow, like a night wolf foraging for food.

"My ......"

"Daddy~"

For a moment, screams of terror resounded in the night sky.

There was even a timid village woman who was so frightened that she immediately fainted in her husband's arms.

"Heaven and earth have righteousness, and miscellaneous manifolds."

Gu Ming came back to his senses and couldn't help but shout at the corpse.

"Boom!"

This drink actually caused the corpse to lie straight back again.

"Ah Zhuang, I know that you died too unjustly. However, the yin and yang are different, the bridge returns to the bridge, the road returns to the road, and the yin soul rests in peace as the Yellow Spring. ”

This time, he didn't even use a clever pen, just by saying a chapter, he made a noise in the coffin from time to time.

After a while, it finally fell silent.

"Alright, you can come and close the coffin."

Gu Ming turned around and said.

"Huh?"

"This ...... That's good? ”

Just now, many villagers saw Ah Zhuang's appearance with white hair, and they were still shocked.

Although Gu Ming opened his mouth, the crowd still looked at you, and you looked at me......

In the end, Ah Zhuang's wife walked into the mourning hall trembling and frightened, and when she saw it, she suddenly felt sad: "Husband~"

After crying like this, someone from the other villagers finally walked in slowly, and after a cautious glance, a hanging heart finally landed.

At this time, Ah Zhuang had recovered to his original state, his face was no longer swollen, and his expression was peaceful as if he was asleep.

"It's okay, it's okay, everyone can come over."

"It's amazing, Gu Gongzi is really a master."

A group of villagers walked into the mourning hall one after another.

At this time, Gu Ming carefully inspected the coffin again, and found that Ah Zhuang spit out a mouthful of blackened concentrated liquid in green color, and a small piece of tea-like residue was faintly visible.

Could it be that this is the water mangweed?

Thinking about it, Gu Ming wouldn't reach for it...... It's a little disgusting to look at it more.

When Ah Zhuang's relatives cried for a while, the village chief said, "Okay, since Ah Zhuang has calmed down, let's close the coffin." ”

"Coffin!"

With a roar, several strong men lifted the lid of the coffin and slowly closed it.

Subsequently, a group of villagers thanked Gu Ming for their kindness.

"It's a trivial matter, and you don't have to be polite. Okay, here's the matter, you guys are busy, I'll take my leave first. ”

Wu Zijing couldn't help but say: "Gu Gongzi, it's better to rest in the village for a night on this big night, and wait for dawn before leaving." ”

"It's okay, is it possible that I'm still afraid of ghosts and ghosts?"

Gu Ming smiled and said goodbye.

As soon as he got out of the village, Dong Sheng couldn't help complaining: "Now that we can't go back to the city, we can't keep walking on the road, right?" ”

"What nonsense, wouldn't it be nice to find a place to lie down? It's not comfortable to stay in the village. ”

"Makes sense...... Anyway, with you, I'm still afraid of a ghost! ”
