After hearing my master's mention of the snake spirit, Cuilian's body shivered, and she sat down on the ground with her buttocks.

Seeing this scene, my second monk was confused, I don't know which one she is singing?

However, I guess this Cuilian must know something, otherwise it would be impossible to have such a reaction after hearing the word "snake spirit".

Taixu Dao Chang turned around, frowned, and asked with a gloomy face: "As the saying goes, there is a debtor who is wronged, the ghost does not knock on the door of impermanence, the demon does not chase the innocent, you don't provoke the spirit in the mountain, it definitely does not dare to find your family's business!" ”

Cuilian's face was pale with fright at this time, and she couldn't speak.

Tang Dazhu, who was on the side, had already realized the seriousness of the matter, and then sighed deeply, and then explained the reason.

It turns out that this is the case, Cuilian and Tang Sheng have been married for four years and have always wanted to have a child, but the strange thing is that the couple didn't get the child out at night.

After a long time, the people in the village pointed and pointed out that Cuilian was an old hen who couldn't lay eggs, and in the countryside, gossip was indispensable.

So Tang Sheng and Cuilian went to the hospital for an examination, but the results of the examination showed that there was nothing wrong with them.

Later, Tang Sheng heard a home remedy outside, saying that it was made of snake gall bladder, snake skin, eggs, peach kernels, and dog tail grass, and put them in a pot to boil into soup, and the woman could conceive seeds after drinking it for a month.

Tang Sheng, who entered the mountain with a guy, really found a nest of young snakes in a hole in the mountain, this nest of snakes is amazing, covered with green scales, shining, and a rare thing.

Tang Sheng's heart was hot, and he served all the nests, skinned them alive on the spot, took the snake gall bladder, and then took it home to make a pot of raw soup for Cuilian, but the next morning, Tang Sheng died innocently at home......

"Dao Chief, isn't that snake spirit back for revenge?" Cuilian wiped a handful of tears and asked tremblingly.

"It's nonsense!" My master flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "The nest has been served, it's no wonder that the snake mother doesn't come to take revenge!" ”

Snakes are the most resentful, I remember the fat man told me that there was a person in their family who liked to eat snake meat, and then he was retaliated by the snake, and was broken by the snake, and when he found it, the ground at the head of the house was crawling with snakes......

"Master, that snake mother killed Tang Sheng, will it kill again?" I asked.

Taixu Dao Chang shook his head and said: "That snake spirit must have just become a spirit not long ago, and there is no Taoism, but this hatred is too deep, and as a last resort, it used demon magic to exchange a life for a life with Tang Sheng." ”

So, the mother snake is now dead.

"It's better to be dead, it's better to be dead." When Tang Dazhu and Cuilian heard that the snake spirit was dead, they suddenly raised their spirits.

"People are doing it, and the sky is watching. If you go on a night road for a long time, you will eventually encounter a ghost, and if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself. Taixu Dao Chang dusted his sleeves, his face showed a little anger, and said coldly: "Next time something like this happens, Hugh will ask Ben Dao for help again." ”

Seeing that my master was displeased, Cuilian and Tang Dazhu hurriedly admitted their mistakes, and promised again and again that they would never believe in folk remedies to harm living beings in the future.

Now that the man is dead, he has paid the debt he owes, and the truth has been told to them, and it is estimated that they will not dare to commit such sins again.

"Master, what should I do with Tang Sheng's corpse?" According to the rules, he should be buried today, but his body is too evil to be buried easily.

"Now that it's getting dark, I have to do a ritual tomorrow morning to overtake the souls of the dead, and then bury the corpses," said the Taixu Dao Chief.

It is the most taboo night to be buried, because you can't see the light, once the resentment gathers in your throat, it is extremely easy to cheat the corpse, and at that time, the trouble will be big!

Then, the master lit the lantern, then lit the cinnabar on Tang Sheng's forehead to seal the soul, and then pasted two yellow talismans on the door to prevent dirty things from breaking into the house and preventing the corpse from rising.

In the end, the master felt uneasy, and sprinkled cinnabar around the house again, and this was the case.

It was not early, Tang Dazhu prepared a meal and beckoned my master to eat with me.

Because of the trouble in his family, everyone knows that the big guys are afraid that this evil thing will provoke them, so they hide at home and dare not come out when it gets dark.

So tonight, there were two tables, one table was me and Taixu Dao Chang, and the other table was their relatives.

Eat and drink well, big fish and big meat, it's all about it.

After Master and I had eaten and drunk, the mourning hall on that side had been set up, and according to my Master's wishes, it was standing in the small room where the corpses were kept.

After the mourning hall was built, the body was to be put into the coffin and carried into the house together.

The people of their family were afraid of getting a strange disease, so they simply found four wooden sticks, set up Tang Sheng's body and moved him to the coffin.

After setting up the offering table, Tang Dazhu was not at ease, so he found my master in a panic and asked, "Daoist, according to your instructions, the mourning hall has been arranged, but I don't know what's wrong, I always feel weird in my heart...... Nothing will happen tonight, will it? ”

Tang Dazhu's worries are exactly what I am worried about.

Thinking of the appearance of Tang Sheng's corpse, I muttered in my heart, for fear that he would really cheat the corpse.

"This Taoist chief is here, what can happen to the moth?" As soon as my master turned his head and saw me, he pulled me over, "Since you are not at ease, then my apprentice will keep the spirit tonight!" ”

The wake is to stay with the corpse overnight and wait for the burial tomorrow, which is generally guarded by the children of the deceased, and if there are no children, they are replaced by nephews and nephews.

Anyway, I can't fight with his eight pole relatives, so why should I ask me to keep a wake for him?

At that time, when I heard that I was asked to guard Tang Sheng's spirit, I was so angry that I almost sprayed a mouthful of blood on his face.

I'm not stupid, I know that the wake is the most dangerous thing tonight, once I turn my back on Tang Sheng's corpse, the first person to die is me.

I suppressed my anger and said, "Master, I sleep at night, and thunder can't wake me up. ”

"Master can trust you!" Taixu Dao Chang patted me on the shoulder, giving the greatest affirmation.

"I ......"

"This matter is settled," Taixu Dao Chang rubbed his eyelids, yawned and said: "This person is too sleepy when he is old at this time, Master will go to the back room to make up for sleep, by the way, take care of the bag, don't lose it, if anything happens, call me as soon as possible." ”

Without waiting for me to speak, he turned and left.

As soon as the master withdrew, the people of the old Tang family saw me as if they had seen a fairy, it was a long way and a long way shouting, how close you want to be.

Wake the spirit, it's not a big deal, I'm a dignified seven-foot man, can I still be scared to pee by a corpse?

Immediately, I put my hands behind my back and asked the old Tang family to prepare some food and drink for me and put them in the mourning hall.

Keeping a night spirit, even if I can stand it, my stomach can't stand it.

Later, when I entered the mourning hall, a cool air suddenly penetrated into my clothes, and then I felt a crispy numbness in the cracks of my bones.

The coffin stopped in the center of the room, and at the head of the coffin was a black-and-white photo of Tang Sheng, and under the light of the candle, the shadow of the photo was stretched slender.

The more I looked at Tang Sheng's portrait, the more panicked I felt, I always felt that he was smiling at me, that weird smile was terrifying, and I didn't dare to look at it more.

I found a chair, and just wanted to sit down, ready to sit down for a while, when I suddenly heard the soft voice of a girl coming from the door.
