Chapter 26: The Hive Corpse (10)
We smoked and chatted until half past eleven in the evening, when Brother Xu waved his hand and said to me, "Dawn, you choke that kitchen knife on the table in your belt."
Nodding my head, I walked to the table, picked up the kitchen knife and stuck it in the waistband of my trousers, the red silk on the handle of the kitchen knife was still outside, and I simply felt that my second brother was a little dangerous, although the kitchen knife was not as sharp as the sword, but it was also a magic weapon. If the waistband of your pants is not tied all of a sudden, you don't dare to think about it.
"This kitchen knife should be opened by Li Jia's father, giving the tied paper man a trace of his own spirit, lighting the paper man with fire, putting the knife on the fire to bake, and finally grafting a trace of spirit in the paper man on the knife, which has the effect of cutting evil things, and if you think that the hyena is going to pry your brain, you will cut him with a big kitchen knife." Brother Xu introduced to me in detail the efficacy of the kitchen knife, and when I heard it, I thought that maybe this knife could save my life.
Brother Xu handed the gong to his sister-in-law: "This gong is even more powerful, it should have a history of twenty or thirty years, at least five Yangge dances have been performed, and it has been contaminated with a lot of yang energy, and the sound it knocks out has the effect of deterring ghosts and gods, Li Jia has put a lot of thought into it."
"As for this magic sword, it should be left by the previous dynasties, I don't know the origin, the effect should be similar to a kitchen knife, but the attack power is several times." Brother Xu can't put down this short sword, I think if this matter is successfully over, the sword will be enough to return to Li Jia.
After introducing the magic weapon, Brother Xu asked me to lie on the bed, pinned the short sword to my waist casually, and took out a brazier for burning fire from other mourning halls and put it on the ground.
When the brazier was ready, he took two sticks of white ash and placed them one meter away from the bed, and told me to take off my shoes and lie on the bed, and I listened to his words and lay down on the spiritual bed.
He cut a bundle of shorter red rope and split it into two strands, one stranded around a piece of wax, and finally wrapped around my big toe and tied a slipknot.
Then he picked up another bundle of long red rope and bypassed the white wax, pulled forward, and tied a dead knot on the legs of the paper figures every time they passed, and wrapped around a rectangle to enclose the entire spiritual bed, and the legs of the four paper figures had red ropes.
"Brother, you lie down, this red rope is a simple formation that I clothed, I am going to seal your Heavenly Court Fire now, you have to be ready."
I folded my hands on my abdomen, and I didn't dare to breathe after lying down.
"Choke." Brother Xu pulled out the magic sword, and the magic sword made a sword sound.
He used the magic sword to gently cut his thumb and the middle, and the magic sword touched the skin and cut a hole, and the blood flowed out but did not flow to the ground.
Hands pressed on the top of my head, the slightest coolness.
"The sky is clear and turbid, and the sky is quiet." Brother Xu recited "Taishang Laojun Said Chang Qing Jing Sutra"
Fingers on the door of my head, one stroke at a time, began to write.
"By the edict of the Emperor of Beiyin, the capital of Xudu, sealed!" A big edict was written from the root of the hair in the head, and at the end of the bunch and the anti-text were written to the tips of my eyes.
When the edict was completed, after Brother Xu finished reciting the mantra, my eyes, which were originally restless and could not be closed, were tightly pressed together.
My ears are full of the sound of the wind, the perception ability of various organs in the body is several times stronger, and it is like an out-of-body soul, in my mind at this time, I can see the wind and grass within twenty meters near the funeral home, and even see the lonely ghosts who are queuing up to eat, everything is so real.
"Uh...... Ah......h Move the little finger of your left hand, it's okay, you can still move, but the reaction is a little sluggish, I hope Brother Xu can protect me at that time.
"Dude." The sound of the wind in my ears disappeared, and Brother Xu continued to me in a soft voice: "Your current Heavenly Court Fire has been sealed by me, and half of the two shoulder fires have been extinguished, you are similar to a dying person. There are only two souls left in the body, and the rest are outside your body, and you feel the changes in your body with your heart, which is very helpful to you, but don't look around, don't walk around, don't attract the attention of other things, and wait quietly and no one will find you. ”
I wanted to answer him, but I remembered that I couldn't speak, so I could only hesitate for three seconds and then nodded.
Brother Xu nodded, put his finger with a wound in his mouth, wrapped it fiercely, and walked towards his sister-in-law.
At this time, the sister-in-law was already kneeling on the ground, and the magic weapon was received in her arms, and the white ribbon she didn't know where to get was put on her head, and she put three bundles of old burning paper and a bag of gold ingots next to her legs.
Open a bundle of old burning paper, take out one, light a match, light the burning paper and throw it into the brazier.
Brother Xu knelt beside her with a bang, and sang and shouted in a professional crying voice: "Oh, he~ brother, alas~ Why did you die young~ Just leave~ You don't say how much you take care of your parents~ Alas~ My brother, alas~ Woo woo...... Hahaha......"
"No, I really can't hold it back, I'm happy when I think about dying at dawn, I can't cry." Brother Xu smiled and crawled back and forth, unable to close his mouth, tears swirling in his eyes.
After a while, he said to his sister-in-law: "Xin, you cry twice."
My sister-in-law didn't speak, she threw the old burning paper into the brazier one by one, and when she saw that the bundle of old burning paper was about to be thrown away, her emotions melted into the scene at this time, looking at my black and white photos, first sobbing quietly and then crying loudly, crying so earth-shattering that even Brother Xu was stunned.
I watched everything like a bystander, and when Brother Xu laughed out loud, I really wanted to kick him into the furnace. I wonder if it's this mourning hall that was arranged for his own pleasure.
When my sister-in-law cried loudly, I was a little relieved, I wondered if anyone would cry for my death like her when I really died, except for my parents and loved ones.
"Huh? Not quite right. "I noticed my sister-in-law's grief and even the lonely ghosts outside the arena were infected, and the ghosts who were about to leave after eating the incense began to sob without tears, and after a while, there were countless ghost howls in places that could not be heard by human ears.
My sister-in-law cried for twenty minutes, and I was afraid that she would cry and cry and convulse.
Just after twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, my sister-in-law burned all the three bundles of old burning paper, and poured a bag of gold ingots into the brazier, and the fire burned very strongly.
Brother Xu coughed, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Brother, you can spend your money, put aside it and find a few more Filipino women, don't smoke Linhai Lingzhi in the future, just smoke and the world, smoke one and dig one, I and your sister-in-law will leave first, and I will come back with your sister-in-law to see you next year when you burn the anniversary."
After Brother Xu finished speaking, he picked up his sister-in-law, who was still shedding tears, and the two walked out of the mourning hall together, and finally walked out of the door of the funeral home under the attention of my soul, and disappeared.
It was quiet, and there was no sound except for the sound of the gold ingots burning. In the end, even the lonely ghosts outside the field were gone, and I was completely left alone to wait quietly for the arrival of the main lord.
In the darkness of the night, I couldn't count the time until a dark cloud obscured the bright moon, and a rickety figure came in through the wall on the side of the funeral parlor.
The Lord is coming.
