Chapter 3: A Bolt from the Clear

A female corpse in a red wedding dress lies in a coffin.

It looks motionless, the complexion is still very fresh, and the dew on the neck and the back of the hands are more like the sweat flowing from the body of the female corpse, so vivid and expressive.

On the back of the female corpse.

There was a bloody wound that stretched from the neck to the waist, and the whole piece of skin was removed.

It's shocking.

Several coffin bearers were so frightened that their legs weakened and fell in front of the coffin on the spot.

The fat man called Erpi let out a scream, and the knife in his hand fell directly into the coffin with a clang, and he didn't even dare to pick it up.

Grandpa took a deep breath.

said to me: "San'er, it seems that this time there is no escape, you can do it yourself." ”

I couldn't understand what he said, and I was about to ask him what was going on, when my grandfather bent down, picked up the knife from the coffin, and then used the tip of the knife to pick out his middle finger.

I wanted to go over and stop: "Don't mess around. ”

"The skin on the back of the corpse is missing, it is obviously not man-made, after the Ma family found out about this problem, they once found someone to do it, but unfortunately they couldn't do anything."

Grandpa said.

While drawing with his fingers on the knife.

Soon, on the body of that knife, two talismans drawn with human blood had already appeared.

Grandpa took the human blood talisman knife and turned to look at Suosuo's trembling crowd.

It seems that some determination has been made.

The voice said sharply: "Ladies and gentlemen, today we fell into some tricks and encountered a murderous spirit, what I can do now is to help this girl complete her body, but I will definitely offend that thing if I do this, if I have any three long and two short, San'er will be handed over to you to take care of." ”

Is Grandpa explaining what happened?

I was about to ask, but my grandfather reached out and stopped me.

Then there were words in his mouth, as if he was reciting some soul suppression scripture, and everyone didn't dare to come out, so they could only watch Grandpa, take off the dog skin with the knife, and then sew it on the back of the female corpse.

After all this, the haze in the sky gradually dissipated.

The boundless noise just now seemed to disappear without a trace, but Grandpa seemed to age dozens of years in an instant, and I could even see clear white hair on his head.

The sun came out from behind the dark clouds.

Everyone covered the coffin with all hands and feet, lifted it up and got back on the road.

No one said anything this time, but it was obvious that the coffin seemed to be much lighter this time, and the coffin bearers also walked like flying one by one, and finally sent the coffin to Qinghu Mountain before the sun set.

After the incident, everyone went to Meng's house as usual and received their payment.

But unlike the others, this grandfather didn't take a penny, and divided all the parts that belonged to him to the other eight coffin bearers.

On the way home, I asked my grandfather why he was doing this.

Grandpa said to me earnestly: "This is accumulating virtue for you!" ”

"Is giving money to those people to accumulate merit for me?"

I didn't understand it even more.

Those guys who help others carry coffins are all low-level people, either gamblers or thieves, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling one by one, how can they accumulate virtue?

Grandpa said, "Do you see the pretty little girl?" ”

When he said this, I remembered that he had said in the morning that he had taken me to see the pretty little girl, and if Grandpa hadn't taken the initiative to bring it up now, I might have forgotten about it.

I replied with a smile and a smile: "The pretty girl didn't see it, but the skinned corpse did." ”

"Let me tell you this, in fact, the pretty little girl I'm talking about is the corpse in the coffin."

After listening to my grandfather's words, I suddenly felt bad.

Grandpa, what are you going to do, take me to see the corpse in a good way?

I even got a little angry: "Grandpa, are you kidding me?" ”

"I'm not joking with you, the Meng Xiyao in the coffin is actually your fiancΓ©e, and I brought you here to see her for the last time."

Grandpa is talking more and more mysterious.

When I came out of my mother's womb, I was living a miserable life in a poor family of feng shui masters.

I don't even dare to find an ordinary girl to be my girlfriend, although Meng Xiyao is very beautiful, but she is a famous beauty, I can't even dream of it, but this is the richest daughter.

How could it be my fiancΓ©e?

I said to my grandfather with an angry face, "I'm in a bad mood today, don't make such a joke on me." ”

"I'm not kidding you, you were engaged to her when you were very young, and you were going to tell you about it when you were eighteen, but no one could have imagined that three months ago, she met that thing."

When Grandpa said this, a touch of desolation flashed in his eyes.

Obviously it doesn't look like a lie.

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and forcibly slowed my mood: "What happened to her?" ”

Speaking of Meng Xiyao, she has been a smart and clever girl since she was a child, not only beautiful, but also very good at studying.

Not long ago, I was even admitted to a prestigious university.

Within a radius of 100 miles, she can be regarded as a proud woman of the sky.

It's a pity that he was jealous of his talents, and suddenly suffered an unexpected thing, and he fell at a young age.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes today, I wouldn't have dared to imagine that a person could be so miserable that his skin was removed.

What's even more unimaginable to me is that Meng Xiyao actually has this relationship with me.

Grandpa said: "The things she encountered are things that you can never afford to offend, and you have to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you will not touch that thing." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly stopped.

Then I realized that we were back in the village, and that we were under the crooked neck tree behind my house.

At this time, the sunset was full of sky, and the sound of crows came and went, echoing over the entire small mountain village, making people feel panic in their hearts when they heard it.

Because there is a saying in our place.

As long as they hear a crow's call, someone will die, because crows are the embodiment of spiritualists, and they can't help but cry excitedly once they find out that someone's yang energy is weakened.

After staring at the crooked neck tree for a long time.

Grandpa said, "There is a good land under this tree, and the gathering time here is tomorrow afternoon, you can remember my words." ”

His words made me want to laugh a little.

In fact, in my heart, I have always been suspicious of such strange things as him.

If Feng Shui masters can really see the treasure land, then why don't they keep it for themselves, so that their children and grandchildren can be promoted and rich, so it is counted.

In fact, these people who engage in feng shui are just fooling others.

I said to my grandfather, "It's not early, let's go back and rest first, and we'll talk about feng shui tomorrow." ”

Although I say so in my mouth.

But grandpa still has some feelings of reluctance for the crooked-necked tree, but in the afterglow of the sunset, I see my grandfather's figure getting older and older.

Back home.

Originally, I wanted to stir-fry a few dishes and have two drinks with my grandfather.

But grandpa may have been too tired, and fell asleep in bed early, and I also played a few games, and fell asleep in a daze, and I kept dreaming of a girl with a very good figure, wearing a red wedding dress, calling my name.

But I couldn't see the girl's face clearly.

I woke up a few times tossing and turning, and I always felt like I was in a nightmare, and I didn't fall asleep until late.

Early the next morning, I was woken up.

Yesterday, the fat man Erpi said to me with a crying voice: "You are still sleeping, go and see that Taoist priest in your house, hanged!" ”

His words struck me like thunder.

I tumbled out of bed in a panic and ran out barefoot with the fat man.

I saw that under the crooked-necked tree behind my house, there was already a group of people around, talking about something?

As I pushed through the crowd, I was so frightened by the sight that I fell to my knees.

An old figure hung coldly from the tree.

Looks like he's been dead for a long time.

What made me even more unacceptable was that a whole piece of skin was missing from this old man's back.

Grandpa!

I let out a scream and didn't know anything.
