Chapter 12: The Funeral (Ask for Recommendation Votes, Collect)

As the saying goes: when the ghost fire sounds, the parents raise it in vain, and when the suona sounds, the whole village eats.

The villagers in Ganling Town all came to attend Master Jia's funeral.

Uncle Nine changed into the costume of a Taoist priest and conducted the ceremony.

As soon as the auspicious time arrived, he sent Master Jia into the coffin.

Li Yan stayed at Jia's house for a day, and he only felt extremely boring.

The customs and habits of each place are different, and the rituals are also different, and Li Yan is not very interested in these.

"Senior brother, I'll go back first, there must be someone at home to guard it, otherwise no one will give incense to Master Zu, and I'll come back when the ritual is held at night."

"Oh, okay, then there is Senior Brother Lao."

……

After that, Li Yan left Jiafu and returned to his residence.

Master Jia can be regarded as a local tyrant in Ganling Town, and he has done a lot of good deeds on weekdays, and many villagers have received the favor of Master Jia, and they are all sad to know that Master Jia is dead.

The couplet hung out from Jia's house, and the white lantern was bright.

Li Yan returned to his residence, went to the main hall with a pillar of fragrance, ate something at will, and went back to his room to sleep.

I slept until nightfall.

At night, Ganling Town looked more weird than usual, and only the sound of suona and gongs and drums was heard from inside Jiafu.

The voice is melodious and tactful, as if it is in the wind, constantly waving and whirling.

"Hey, it's time to do something, right? I'm going to see ......."

Li Yan said to himself.

He was not interested in funerals, but he was very interested in rituals.

You must know that now that he wants to learn the Tao, just doing morning classes every morning is not enough, he has to watch more.

In the past, when I watched Uncle Nine do things, they were all in movies, but now I can witness it with my own eyes, and Li Yan naturally will not miss this opportunity.

When I came to Jiafu, many villagers who came to pay their respects during the day had already left.

In the mourning hall, only the people of the Jia family and some relatives remained.

I saw that Uncle Nine was wearing a yellow robe, holding a peachwood sword, and was doing things.

Wencai and Qiusheng stood on the left and right, listening to orders.

Li Yan looked for a corner in the courtyard of Jiafu with great interest and sat down.

"Still so handsome, childhood memories!"

Li Yan muttered, his hands on his cheeks.

"The ancestral qi of Yuan Yuan, the essence of Jiuyang. Weidebu ten directions, in a trance, the truth. Sanjiu raised the wind and wandered away from Shiqing. Respect the raw juice and give it to avoid thirst and hunger. All souls should be believed, and the eight sufferings cannot be followed. Accumulate the precepts and carry the certificate Yujing. Pardon ......"

Uncle Nine shook his voice and chanted the mantra, and when the words fell, he twisted up two charms in one hand, tapped them a few times on the peachwood sword, and then burned them and put them into the basin in front of him.

"Wencai, Qiusheng."

"Master."

Uncle Jiu: "Go get the ingots, burn them at the door, the ghost will come soon." ”

"Yes."

When Wencai and Qiusheng heard this, they hurriedly took the paper money ingots and walked towards the gate of Jiafu.

As soon as I arrived at the yard, when I saw Li Yan, I couldn't help but smile and nodded, which was regarded as a greeting.

Generally speaking, ghosts will stay in the world until the end of their yang life, and only when their yang life is exhausted will there be ghosts to come to pick them up.

However, after the excess, you can directly let the oni come to you.

Burn some paper money ingots to the ghost, in order to let the ghost be on Huangquan Road, take care of Boss Jia more, and don't let him be wronged.

Generally, when a person whose life is not exhausted dies, the ghost and the yin soldiers will be extremely disgusted, after all, for them, if you die before the hour, it is equivalent to letting them work overtime, and naturally they will not give you a good look.

Wencai and Qiusheng burned the paper money ingots and returned to the house.

After a while, a cloudy wind blew in from outside.

I saw the white lantern hanging on the beam of the door, shaking.

The yin wind "swished" straight in, making people chill, and the couplets on both sides of the mourning hall were also blown loudly.

The devil is coming!

The hearts of everyone present trembled.

After all, everyone in the Jia family is just ordinary people, and this ghost and god thing is still something to be afraid of for them.

Li Yan felt that the temperature around his body seemed to drop by a few degrees all of a sudden, a thought flashed in his mind, and he quickly closed his eyes, recited a spell in his mouth, pinched the magic in his hand, and gently swiped his eyebrows.

When he opened it, he couldn't help but be startled.

I saw that in front of the mourning hall, there were two men, dressed in black robes and long robes, wearing crowns and hats, with indifferent expressions on their faces, standing there motionless.

Is this the ghost?

Li Yan was secretly speechless in his heart.

He learned Taoism from Uncle Jiu, and the first thing he learned was how to open his eyes and see ghosts and gods.

So it's not surprising that when you open your eyes on this day, you can see a ghost.

Obviously, Uncle Jiu, Wencai and Qiusheng can all see the difference between the two ghosts.

Uncle Nine looked respectful, hugged his fist towards the ghost, and said in a shocking voice: "Two lords of the ghost, Master Jia will hand it over to you, and I hope that along the way, you will take care of it." ”

The two ghosts looked indifferent and didn't say a word, just hugged their fists and didn't speak.

Not long after, in the mourning hall, a faint shadow walked out from behind.

This person is about fifty years old, with a confused look and blank eyes, it is the dead Master Jia.

Generally, the ghosts that have just died have no independent consciousness, and will only rely on instinct to constantly wander back and forth.

The same is true for Master Jia.

I saw a ghost cha, spit out a trace of dark yellow breath from his mouth, and submerged into the ghost body of Master Jia.

Then, the two ghosts turned around and left, and Master Jia followed behind them.

Li Yan was dumbfounded.

I just felt like my heart was beating faster.

After all, seeing a ghost for the first time in my life, this visual impact is more powerful than when I saw a zombie.

The two ghosts were expressionless, and walked outside, and when they passed the courtyard, they suddenly stopped, as if they noticed something, and turned their heads to look at Li Yan in unison.

Frightened, Li Yan subconsciously took a step back under his feet.

Fortunately, the two ghosts didn't do anything, and continued to lead Master Jia away slowly.

Li Yan stared intently, staring at the two ghosts.

I only saw them out of the gate of Jiafu, and gradually, disappeared into the vast night.

"Can they feel that I can see them?"

A thought flashed through Li Yan's mind.

I'm going to scare the baby to death!

It's okay, it's okay, it's not terrible yet.

However, these ghosts feel eerie and uncomfortable.

"Mrs. Jia, the ritual has been completed, and the day after tomorrow will be the day after tomorrow, and I, my junior brothers, and apprentices will come over again."

Uncle Nine looked at the crying Mrs. Jia and said slowly.

"Okay, okay...... Uncle Nine, you walk slowly......"

"Then let's go first, Mrs. Jia, please mourn ......"
