Chapter 913: The Ins and Outs of the Corpse Transformation
The porter is the most good at looking at his face, and when he saw Liang Chu's bearing at this time, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, opened the door a little more, and said politely: "Please wait, the little one will come." ”
Liang Chu nodded, and waited on the side.
After a while, there was a commotion in the house, and the group hurriedly walked out.
It was the little guy who was guarding the door before, and he ran out in a panic, and when he came to them, he knelt down with a thousand children: "Distinguished guests are still invited to enter the house, it is small before the neglect." ”
It's not a snubbing, Liang Chu doesn't mind.
"Lord, please."
The people behind had arrived, and it was Wei Li who personally greeted him.
Liang Chu nodded, and Wei Li made a 'please' gesture sideways and welcomed the person in.
The hour was not too late, and the people in the house had not yet rested, and the hall was brightly lit at this time.
Waving back left and right, and asked someone to make tea, Wei Li asked: "I heard that the third master said that he was coming to Haikou, but this time he came to investigate the shipbuilding of the Ministry of Industry?" ”
"Just stopping by to take a look." Liang Chu took a sip of the teacup, and then asked straight to the point: "I heard rumors about your family when I arrived in the town, although the deceased should not speculate, but if someone dies, I still have to investigate." ”
"This ...... Alas! ”
Wei Li sighed softly and turned around to let Mrs. Wei hold the child and avoid it first.
When there were only three people left in the hall, he got up and said, "The third master and Mrs., please move and talk to me in the study for details." ”
Originally, Mu Ling should not have been mixed with such a thing, but she was very curious about the zombies in the legend outside, and now that they are in the Wei family, it is the birthplace of the ghost story, so she doesn't want to leave Liang Chu.
Although Liang Chu didn't know what she was thinking, he could guess a few points by looking at her expression, and he couldn't help laughing, and touched her head comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
When Wei Li looked back, he guessed what she was afraid of, and couldn't help laughing: "Actually, the rumors are just nonsense, there was some trouble some time ago, but it was not as serious as the rumors." ”
Hearing this, Mu Ling felt goosebumps again.
"Alright, go in first." Liang Chu couldn't help but feel helpless, but he didn't know when she was so afraid of ghosts.
He didn't know that because Mu Ling had died once in a disaster in his previous life, when his soul was out of the body, he believed that there were ghosts in this world, so when he heard such rumors, he couldn't help but feel a little cold in his heart.
Mu Ling nodded and followed Liang Chu's side, smelling the faint ambergris floating from his body, and felt a lot better.
After coming to the study and sitting down, Wei Li spoke: "I think the third master and his wife have already heard the rumors. ”
Liang Chu nodded to indicate that it was so.
In fact, it is an exaggeration to say that when my mother died, she suddenly disappeared before she was buried. After a night of searching, he finally found him in a ruined temple in the town. When I found it, my mother had a lot of stains on her body, and even the shroud was a little untidy, but there was no blood, and I had never heard of any injuries or deaths. ”
Wei Li is a smart man, he knows what Liang Chu is worried about, so he first explains Liang Chu's concerns.
But Liang Chu was still not satisfied: "You are only judging based on rumors?" But why were there rumors of dead people later? Did the corpse hurt people that day, but you didn't go to the government or everywhere to investigate it yourself? ”
"On that day, the family in my house searched the whole town, and I didn't find anything unusual." Wei Li sighed lightly.
In this way, it seems that the corpse walked over the mountains and mountains for a long time, and then he was tired and rested in the ruined temple, but he didn't want to be at dawn, and the corpse was already unable to move, so it was found.
The reason why the Wei family took so much effort was probably because they never thought that the corpse would move around on its own, right?
It's a strange thing to say!
Liang Chu changed his posture and continued to ask, "Can you be buried smoothly now?" ”
"Where can I be buried!" Wei Li shook his head and said, "There was such a big disaster, I originally thought it would be a matter of finding the corpse back, but I didn't want the corpse to run out by itself the next day!" This time, because someone was keeping vigil and saw it, they called someone to intercept the body, and some people were injured! ”
Is this really a corpse?
Mu Ling's eyes widened instantly, very incredulous.
Liang Chu turned his head to see it, and couldn't help but feel a burst of amusement, reached out and touched her head, and protected the person in his arms.
Wei Li watched the interaction between these two people from the side, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the relationship between the Emperor and the Queen Mother is really good, and many people in this world can't envy it.
"I think it was because the movement when the body was arrested that day was too loud, so people saw it and spread it like this." Wei Li sighed and said, "Later, a Taoist priest came and caught my mother. It is said that the corpse of the mother of the family accidentally absorbed the vitality when she choked the air, which caused the corpse to change, and this time there was no other way than to burn the corpse. ”
Mu Ling nodded in agreement, it seems that there is no other way for zombies than to burn them.
She was no longer suspicious, and when she heard Wei Li say that the body had been burned, she became more and more relieved in her heart.
"And the body was burned?" Liang Chu suddenly asked.
Wei Li nodded: "Because it is a practice, and the Taoist priest said that burning the body at home is not good for future generations, so he took the body away and disposed of it, and after a few days, he brought a box of ashes, and we buried the ashes." ”
"Take it away?" Liang Chu frowned when he heard this.
Only then did Mu Ling notice that something was wrong, and he also thought of the inappropriateness: "You didn't send anyone to follow?" Why don't you see such a thing with your own eyes? Even if it can't be burned down in the house, you should follow the Taoist priest elsewhere. ”
To be honest, although she believed in the theory of ghosts and gods, she would not believe the words of the Taoist priest.
What inhalation of anger causes the corpse to change, what kind of house is not suitable for burning the body, and what will cause trouble for future generations, are just the rhetoric of the Taoist priest, used to fool the layman who does not understand.
Wei Li obviously didn't feel that there was a problem: "It's useless for outsiders to hold my mother's body, right?" ”
Who has nothing to do to collect the corpse or what?
Theoretically, this is true, but the world is full of wonders, and who knows if there will be some people with special fetishes? And the sudden transformation of the corpse is a bit suspicious no matter how you look at it.
Mu Ling was about to refute, but Liang Chu raised his hand to stop her and said, "I'll talk about this later." ”
