Woken up by the alarm clock at half past six in the morning, Su Musha took care of himself, sent a text message to Mao Zhaoying, packed up some incense, candles, paper money and went out. "Words, feelings, first, http://www.Klxsw.com

Mao Zhaoying was already waiting at the entrance of the alley, and when she saw Su Musha, she smiled and said, "I've troubled you for the past two days."
Su Musha shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.
When the two arrived at Wang's house, they saw that a group of people were already gathered at the door, discussing something. If you look closely, you can see that these people are all residents near Wang's house.
Mao Zhaoying frowned when he saw this, he hadn't found the ghoul yet, so many people were crowded here, in case of another death, who could be responsible for him to put aside the person in front of him, his face was very bad, and he shouted: "What are you doing here, I don't know if the deceased needs to be clean."
When everyone saw that he was dressed in a Taoist robe and his face was gloomy, they didn't dare to say anything more.
Mao Zhaoying walked into the mourning hall, and these people avoided it all the way, lest they would touch the Taoist priest's moldy head.
Su Musha followed behind him, and when someone asked, he raised the things in his hand to signal, and those people stopped asking.
Wang Yongyi saw that the two were coming, and hurriedly stepped forward, and Mao Zhaoying asked, "What happened?"
Wang Yongyi's face turned pale, he looked at the people outside, and said in a low voice, "Come inside and talk."
The three of them entered the compartment together, and Wang Yongyi hesitated for a moment before saying, "Little Boss Su, you should avoid it first, otherwise it will scare you for a while." Master Mao, come and see. With that, he trembled and lifted the white cloth from the corpse.
Mao Zhaoying and Su Musha both had their pupils shrunk, and it turned out that the head of the corpse was gone.
Wang Yongyi's eyes were red and he explained: "Last night, my sister was here to keep a watch, saying that when a strange wind suddenly blew, she fell asleep in a daze, and when she woke up in the morning, her father's head was gone."
Wang Yongyi's sister fainted with fear and guilt, and was helped to her room, and now Wang Yongyi's wife is taking care of her.
In this small place, it is definitely a big taboo for people to have incomplete corpses after death. It is generally believed that if a person dies, if the body is incomplete, it is definitely because he or she has done too much evil in her life, so she cannot go to the underworld with dignity after death.
In the morning, Wang Yongyi's sister found out about the tragic condition of the corpse, and screamed in fright, but two people took advantage of the chaos to see the excitement, these two people were famous long-tongued women in the neighborhood, and as soon as they left Wang's house, they told others that the old man's head was missing, which attracted so many onlookers.
Wang Yongyi looked at Mao Zhaoying pleadingly, and said, "Master Mao, please help us, I can't let my father be humiliated after he dies" Things have become like this, how can he feel better as a son.
Mao Zhaoying agreed, let Wang Yongyi go out with him, and glanced at Su Musha before leaving, and Su Musha nodded knowingly.
Pasting a piece of talisman paper on the neck of the corpse that lacked a head, Su Musha squatted down to carefully check the formation laid out last night, but saw that the red rope had been cut and the spirit talisman had been torn up, and the formation had obviously failed. He examined the corpse's neck closely, and the fracture was uneven, apparently bitten by a ghoul.
Besides, Mao Zhaoying and Wang Yongyi came to everyone together, and Mao Zhaoying asked in a deep voice: "Who told the story of Old Man Wang?"
After a while of pushing and shoving between the crowd, two women came out, and it was the two who were telling right and wrong.
Mao Zhaoying looked at the two of them and said coldly: "You said that you saw that Old Man Wang's head was missing."
The two women opened their mouths one after another, saying that this was the way it was, and that they were not lying.
Mao Zhaoying snorted coldly and said, "Are you in a daze in the morning, Old Man Wang's body is fine, are you afraid of disturbing him when you say this?"
The two women winced, but insisted that they were not mistaken.
Mao Zhaoying waited for them to talk for a long time before she spoke slowly: "Then you two come with me, and two more will come out among the others, and I will show you what the truth is."
Wang Yongyi was a little uneasy, but seeing Mao Zhaoying so calm, he didn't say anything.
The four people followed behind Mao Zhaoying and Wang Yongyi and entered the compartment. Mao Zhaoying waved his sleeve robe and said, "Look at it carefully."
Su Musha brought a white cloth wang yongyi saw that his father's body was still the same as before, and his face turned even paler
However, the other four exclaimed, and they saw that the body was indeed intact
The faces of the two women turned pale, Nuo Nuo couldn't say a word, Mao Zhaoying drove the four of them out: "All go out, don't you know if the dead are the greatest?"
The four of them ran out in a daze, Wang Yongyi looked at Mao Zhaoying in surprise, and Mao Zhaoying said, "It's just a trick." With Su Musha's talisman as the knot, he waved his sleeve robe to the four people as a guide and deceived these people.
Wang Yongyi admired it very much and thanked him again and again. After a while, his wife came in and said that all the people at the door had dispersed. After all, these people still have the concept of "the dead are great", and when they heard that the body of the old man Wang was in good condition, they didn't dare to watch the excitement anymore.
Su curtain looked out from the crack in the white curtain. The only people I saw yesterday today are Wang Yongyi's wife, sister and mother. When he just walked into the house, he saw a woman lying on the bed, while another woman was feeding her medicine, thinking that it was Wang Yongyi's wife and sister. Then as for Mrs. Wang
He came to Mao Zhaoying's side and whispered a few words to him, although Mao Zhaoying was a little puzzled, he still asked Wang Yongyi according to his meaning: "What about Lingtang?"
Wang Yongyi replied: "My mother has not gotten up since she fell asleep yesterday, and I plan to go to her doctor today."
Mao Zhaoying said again: "Can we go and see her?"
Wang Yongyi thought about it, then agreed, he led the two to the door of his mother's room, and said to Mao Zhaoying and Su Musha: "I also hope that Master Mao and Little Boss Su will persuade my mother and let her pay attention to her body."
The two nodded, Wang Yongyi knocked on the door, and then shouted loudly into the house: "Mom, Master Mao and Little Boss Su want to go in to see you."
After a while, an old voice came, "Let them in."
Wang Yongyi opened the door for the two and left in a hurry.
Mao Zhaoying and Su Mu entered the house and found that the room was very dim, and the window should have been blocked by thick curtains.
Suddenly, a small light lit up, and it turned out to be Mrs. Wang, who saw the two of them coming in and turned on the bedside lamp.
She was lying on the bed, her face was not as sad as yesterday, and her expression was calm and vicissitudes. She looked at them and said, "Sit down."
Mao Zhaoying and Su Musha sat down on the chair next to the bed, and Mrs. Wang looked at Su Musha, who had already taken off her glasses: "Little Boss Su, you already know, right?"
Su Musha did not deny it: "I roughly guessed it." ”
Mrs. Wang was silent for a moment, and then said something that shocked Mao Zhaoying: "I killed my husband." ”
Su Musha said, "The ghoul is still in your room."
Mrs. Wang nodded and pointed to a small box on the table next to the bed: "It's inside."
Mao Zhaoying recovered from the shock: "I don't understand, you"
Old Lady Wang let out a long sigh and slowly spoke: "I married him when I was eighteen years old, but my father did not approve of our marriage in the first place. Every time we went back to my parents' house, he wouldn't give my husband a good look. ”
"Once my father whispered to me that he wanted me to divorce him, and he was not a good place to go. But he didn't want to, he heard this, and then he poisoned my father to death, of course, I didn't know this at first, because he said that my father died because of food poisoning, and that year, a person died when he died, and who knows how you died. ”
"Until we got married thirty years later, he got drunk, yes, he was too drunk, otherwise how would he tell the truth I didn't want to believe it, but on Halloween that year, I dreamed that my father said with a hideous face that he wanted revenge, by the way, you probably don't know yet, my family was originally a Taoist family, but it declined later." Mrs. Wang took a breath of relief, and said: "I used the truth to let him tell the truth, and sure enough, he killed my father, how could I let go of my father who raised me from childhood to adulthood." So every year in the seventh and a half months of every year, I would use charms to attract wild ghosts and let them haunt him, so he had been sick for so many years, and he never recovered. ”
"It's just that I didn't recruit my father's soul until the seventh half of this year."
"Sure enough, although my father didn't remember me, he turned into a ghoul the moment he saw him, and I let him eat his soul. I destroyed your formation, and his head was bitten off by my father."
"I don't want to hide it anymore, I took revenge, but I don't have a husband, I can't live long, I just hope that before I die, the two of you can surpass him and my father." After Mrs. Wang finished speaking, she opened the small box. The moment the box opened, a very deformed monster sprang out of it.
It has four legs and four hands on its body, and two heads around its neck. One of them was the dead old man Wang, and the other ghost head was constantly biting him, but the old man Wang's head did not react. The deformed ghoul is bound by a box and cannot leave.
Seeing this, Mao Zhaoying threw out a talisman, and the talisman was attached to the corpse-eating evil spirit, and it gradually faded away, and then disappeared.
He said to the old lady Wang, "I just sent it to the underworld, and I have no way of knowing how the king of Hades will sentence me." ”
Old Lady Wang nodded at him, and looked at Su Musha again: "Little Boss Su, the old woman knows that you have a spirit talisman that can make people's souls melt little by little in the three days before they die." ”
Su Mushi looked at her expressionlessly, but he still took out this talisman and gave it to her. Seeing this, Mao Zhaoying wanted to step forward to stop it, but was held down by Su Musha.
Old Lady Wang smiled: "Little Boss Su, you must know that I will ask you for this talisman, so I brought it."
Su Musha nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Mrs. Wang put the talisman on her body and closed her eyes: "If I go to the underworld and see my father and husband, I will not be able to face any of them, so so be it."
