Chapter 6 Guarding the Everlasting Lamp
After dinner, Wu Nian sat on a rocking chair in the courtyard, flicking the yellow wooden guitar, beating the beat on his feet, and humming in his mouth, "The grave is full of flowers, how beautiful you yearn for, look at the mountains and fields, do you still feel lonely?" "Tang Lei's lilacs have been popular all over the country as soon as they were released, and there are countless catchy songs, but Wu Nian likes this one, although he has not had a girlfriend so far, but every time he sings this song, the corners of his eyes will always be filled with tears unconsciously......
In the courtyard of the Zhao family, there are four brothers of Guotai Anbang of the Jianzi generation, and a total of eight men and women of the cold character generation, wearing linen and filial piety, kneeling at the head of the coffin to guard the spirit.
The tradition left by the ancestors is that if the lantern is extinguished, the seven souls and six spirits of the deceased will fly out of the coffin and possess the body of the surrounding animals, and the animal will turn into an evil thing, which is a disaster and is difficult to control!
More than a dozen people were burning paper money, while crying and recalling the picture of the deceased, Zhao Rong was very strict with people during his lifetime, which can be described as iron-faced selflessness, although people are not bad, but they are also very unpopular, and the clansmen dare not speak out, saying that they are crying, in fact, the two brothers Leng Feng and Leng Yue are really shedding tears, after all, none of the more than ten people who are kneeling and worshipping are the blood of the old man Zhao......
At midnight, the four brothers of the Jianzi generation went back to rest, after all, they are also about fifty years old, and the body can't stand it after a long time, leaving the eight descendants led by Leng Feng in front of the coffin are still guarding the spirit, crying all afternoon, even if they don't shed tears, they are tired, and the brothers are very tired at this moment, and the sleepiness is not consciously attacked, just when a few people are drowsy!
Suddenly, the wind was blowing, and a whirlwind swept the leaves towards the coffin, and at this time, in the opposite direction of the whirlwind, a black cat appeared at some point, the bronze pupils did not have a trace of life, and walked towards the black wooden coffin, the eight brothers and sisters of the Zhao family immediately panicked, some opened their arms to block the wind, some opened their clothes to protect the ever-bright lamp, and Zhao Lengfeng, who was holding a burning paper stick in his hand, ran towards the black cat, and several people were in a mess for a while!
But the wisdom and speed of the black cat don't seem to be something that Leng Feng can resist, the whirlwind and the black cat are getting closer and closer to the coffin, and the eight people are helpless, the broken bricks and tiles in their hands, the basin and bench are all flying, and it is understandable to hit the cat with things, but Zhao Lengfeng held a stick in one hand and a broken basin in the other, and slapped towards the whirlwind, seeing this scene, the seven brothers almost didn't laugh, just when a few people were desperate immediately, the fourth old man Zhao Gui appeared in the yard at some point, and spat at the whirlwind, which can also be said to be sticky phlegm, Shouting: "Where did the demon come from, get out", not to mention, the moment the sticky phlegm touched the whirlwind, the wind stopped, and the leaves rolled in the wind also fell, and the big black cat didn't know where to run!
The eight brothers knelt on the ground with a thud, waiting for Zhao Gui's scolding, and Zhao Gui lived up to expectations, scolded for ten minutes, and there was no repetition at all, and finally walked in front of Leng Feng and made a summary, "What did you do just now?" With a stick in one hand and a basin in the other, what about convulsions? The seven brothers couldn't hold back anymore, they burst into laughter, covering their stomachs, slapping their thighs, and their postures were thousands!
After Zhao Gui returned to the house, they no longer dared to take it lightly, they almost didn't cause trouble just now!
At four o'clock in the morning, the people who went to the Houshan cemetery to open the blessed land came, with tools to prepare to dig the pit, and the group ran towards the back mountain with cooked noodles......
