Chapter 16: The Coffin

The ancient ancestral hall is lifeless, and the ranking of the ancestors of the Zhang family is placed above, and the seven coffins parked in the courtyard are bright red as blood, revealing a hint of ominous atmosphere.

In front of the coffin, there are photos of the dead for people to pay homage to, and in the black and white photos, there is a photo that makes my blood cold.

It was a photograph of Zhang Bin, in the middle of the seven coffins.

The coins, some of which landed on top of the coffins, and a few solitary spirit flags were tied to the pillars, but there was no one to be seen calling for them.

Zhang Bin is really dead... The ...... who drank with me yesterday

I shuddered, and I couldn't help but wonder if the evil ghost who killed me was really Zhang Bin. Or, has it become Li Zhao who looks like Zhang Bin?

As soon as we entered the village, we encountered evil ghosts asking for their lives, which was obviously beyond Lilac's expectations, especially now that we have not been trapped by ghosts and cannot leave Zhangjia Village, which has aggravated this uneasiness.

"It's bad, it's bad, there's really a demon lurking in this village, and it's extraordinary!" Lilac looked around, took out three pieces of snow-white things the length of his little thumb from his small satchel, and lit them, and a faint fragrance reverberated in the air.

"Senior sister, what is this?" I retreated from the ancestral hall and asked her as I watched Lilac's movements.

Lilac watched the three pieces of white fat burn and explained to me: "This is called the jade fragrance of the sheep mother, which is extracted from the milk of the firstborn ewe, and the wick is made of the wool of the lamb, which is used to break the ghost and hit the wall." ”

"Isn't that just a soaking pee?" I subconsciously spoke, and then sighed, a little embarrassed.

Lilac glared at me in annoyance, ignored me, and watched intently at the white smoke from the burning of the three sticks of goat enote.

However, the three smoke gases are entangled with each other, circling around us, and do not have any special effect. A hint of frustration was evident on Lilac's face, and she blew out the three sticks of goat's e-butter and put them back in her pocket.

"No, I can't even find the exit of the sheep mother's jade fragrance, it seems that the person who arranged the ghost of Zhangjia Village to hit the wall is a very powerful guy. In my opinion, it is very likely to be your sister Fang. ”

Hearing Lilac say this, I couldn't help but feel a little moved, does Sister Fang really want to harm me?

"Senior brother, do you know that terrible ghost just now? How does he call you by name. Lilac looked around, asking as she watched out for another sneak attack.

I nodded, and it brought back a little memory for me: "Yes, I knew him, he was my classmate in high school." ”

"I don't think he treats you as a classmate, as if he still has some deep hatred." Lilac said.

I couldn't help but smile and touched the blue mark on my neck with my fingers: "Probably because I chased the same girl as him." After that, he always hated me, but I didn't expect that he would even remember to kill me even when he died. ”

"So, you caught it?" Lilac's eyes lit up, and I couldn't laugh or cry when I saw that this Xiangxi girl could still rarely gossip in such a dangerous situation.

"Hmm... Sort of. I said an ambiguous answer, that girl is Lu Jia, I have been with her for four years, but now I am ...... Like most couples, they end up being strangers.

Lilac rolled her eyes, shook her long hair, then looked at the seven coffins in the ancestral hall and said, "Don't dig up your relationship history, it's boring." Come here, since you can't get out, this girl will see what kind of powerful evil ghosts are hidden in this Zhangjia village, and they dare to trouble our corpse faction! ”

"Senior sister, aren't Bai Yi and Yi Yi separated from the corpse chaser faction?" I sneered, followed her into the ancestral hall, and always felt that with this senior sister here, this Zhangjia Village was not so terrible.

"It's still the same sect after the family is separated, don't you just ignore the gang in black?" Lilac said confidently, and suddenly she paused, and her beautiful face showed a little twist, "Also, junior brother..."

"Huh? What the? "Looking at her expression, I immediately thought something was wrong.

"Thank you for saving me."

Hearing Lilac's words, I couldn't help but be stunned, then scratched my head, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I didn't know what I thought at the time, so I pounced out." Moreover, if I am in danger, you will definitely save me, sister, right? ”

"Hmph, not necessarily." Lilac snorted softly and didn't answer my words, her mouth pursed, and her smooth chin raised proudly.

Although she said so, I knew that this senior sister was actually very kind-hearted. If she really didn't care about my safety, she wouldn't have accompanied me to Zhangjiacun for an adventure at all.

I followed Lilac into the ancestral hall, and I felt a cold wind blowing in my face, causing the paper money on the ground to fly one after another. Seven coffins are placed side by side on the long, 凳️ so that people don't want to look at them and can't ignore them.

As soon as we entered, there was a bang, and the door of the ancestral hall behind us closed automatically. The seven lanterns on the long table suddenly lit up, and the faint lights danced, emitting wisps of rancid smell.

"Corpse oil lamp, the means of black clothes!" When Lilac smelled the smell, her face changed, and her body in a long skirt ran quickly to the long table, and she was about to lift the table.

I was taken aback, and hurriedly went over, not knowing whether to help her or stop her: "Senior sister, this is an ever-bright lamp, in case the people of Zhangjia Village see us flipping the table..."

"Then you can choose between being killed by a ghost and being beaten to death!" Lilac glared at me, pointed to the seven coffins and said, "This ever-bright lamp is made of corpse oil, and the black clothes are used to raise corpses and attract ghosts!" If you grind any longer, the seven lying down should get up! ”

Toot toot!

At this moment, I suddenly heard a rapid knocking sound in the middle of the seven coffins, and the sound sounded from inside the coffin, enough to make people's scalps explode!

Knock on the coffin!

"So fast?" I looked at Lilac in astonishment, and Lilac's face flashed with a little surprise, and said, "It stands to reason that it's not so fast, the seven-star lamp has just been lit..."

"Is there a living person in there?" I had a bold guess, and then the knocking in the coffin became louder, as if I was crying for help.

"Anyway, put out the corpse oil lamp first, otherwise six ghosts will be enough to toss." Lilac didn't say anything about extinguishing the lights, and directly pushed those everlasting lamps to the ground and stepped on the candle flames.

A disgusting rancid stench echoed in the air, and a miserable black gas seemed to be shrouded around the seven coffins.

"Do you want to open the coffin?" After extinguishing the lantern, Lilac calmed down a little and walked around Zhang Bin's coffin, not quite agreeing with my opinion.

In her opinion, it will be either a ghost or a corpse in the coffin, if it is really a corpse knocking the coffin, after the coffin is opened, there may be some evil ghost released.

But I can't think so, this is Zhang Bin's coffin, if it's really Zhang Bin lying inside, and he's not dead, then I may be the only person who can save him now.

"Senior sister, let's open the coffin and take a look, even if there are ghosts, aren't you still there?"

"You're really tough, forget it, there's nothing you can do." Lilac gave me a blank look, but finally agreed, "If you want to open the coffin, you can take some precautions first." ”

She took out six lotus lanterns made of gold paper from the big bag I carried, which had only one wick in the center, and when I went to the grave during the Qingming Festival, I lit it for a period of time and burned the whole lotus lantern together.

In some places, lotus lanterns are treated with a special waterproof treatment to allow them to float on the water and place river lanterns.

The lotus lamp used for a paper dress is more special, it is a wick soaked in Ganoderma lucidum liquid, and there is a faint medicinal fragrance at one point. This kind of lotus lamp, called 'soul locking lamp' in a piece of paper, belongs to the sleepy ghosts.

Lilac took six soul-locking lamps and placed them on top of the other six coffins, then lit them one by one. I thought I was going to drip blood again, so I took the initiative to pass my finger over.

"What?" Lilac was stunned and looked at me as if she was a nervous disorder.

"Dripping blood, don't you need it?" I'm a little embarrassed now.

"Drop your head, go open the coffin, don't waste six soul locking lamps." Lilac rolled her eyes speechlessly, urging me to hurry up and open Zhang Bin's coffin.

I looked at Zhang Bin's coffin when Lilac was preparing the soul locking lamp, maybe because it was not about to be buried, and the coffin lid had not been nailed to the coffin, otherwise it would be impossible for me to open it alone.

I put down the bag on my back and pushed the lid hard, and the heavy mahogany lid was pushed a little by me, making a dull sound. At this time, the sound of tapping on the coffin board in the coffin became more urgent, as if it was impatient to come out.

Finally, with all my strength, I pushed the lid of the coffin out of a gap, and I could vaguely see the inside of the coffin, which was pitch black, and there was a person lying inside.

At this moment, the percussion stopped.

"Zhang Bin, is that you? If you're still alive, respond with a response. "After experiencing such things, I also paid more attention to it at this time, and I didn't push the lid of the coffin open.

In the dim light, it was impossible to see the inside of the coffin.

"Lin Shao?"

Suddenly, a weak voice came from the crack of the coffin, a little uncertain, and a little surprised: "This voice, you are Lin Shao, help me out!" ”

Hearing this voice, I felt a little familiar, but I couldn't remember it quickly, but this voice was not Zhang Bin, but a girl's voice.

"Who are you?" I asked cautiously, and there was silence in the coffin for a moment, and I listened intently, when suddenly an eerie laugh came from the coffin: "What? Unrecognizable old classmates' voices? ”

Suddenly, a cold wind blew out of the crack with a rancid smell, and with a bang, the heavy coffin board was overturned!

"Senior brother, be careful!" Lilac kept looking at me, and when she saw this scene, she pulled me to her side, and said in a deep voice, "What a heavy grievance... Don't open the coffin? Now it's in trouble. ”

"Senior sister, I think it's really an acquaintance of mine." I stared nervously at the open coffin.

Wisps of blood-red aura emerged from the coffin visible to the naked eye, and then a hand with sharp nails grabbed the edge of the coffin, and a stabbing sound crossed the surface of the coffin, and a woman stood up from the coffin with her hair dismantled.

"Li Xiaodan..."I gasped when I saw the face that was dancing with messy hair.

Another old classmate from high school, how could she be in Zhang Bin's coffin? And looking at her current appearance, she is obviously not a living person!

"Lin Shao, I didn't expect that we would meet again like this." Li Xiaodan's face was flushed, but she didn't become as hideous as Li Zhao, she looked at me, and the corners of her mouth showed a sneer, "You, I, they will all die, and no one can escape!" ”
