Zishan Daoist is still dressed like that, wearing a yellow Taoist robe, wearing a Taoist crown, kicking the clouds, having an extra handful of dust in his hand, and having to cough when he walks in, "Well, Tun~~".

The eldest prince hurriedly stood up and groveled, "Yo, the Taoist chief is here, take a seat." ”

He glared at a few housekeepers: "The Taoist chief is here and hurry up to serve tea, what kind of eyesight do you see, my father will train you like this?" ”

The housekeeper invited Zishan Daoist to the first seat, served tea and poured water, and everything was available. I watched this from the side and wondered, this Taoist priest is really good, it's only been a long time since he came, and he has been mixed with the eldest prince, and let this rich second generation bow and worship, there is indeed a set of things.

Zishan Dao Chang was so big that even the opposing second wife couldn't help but stand up, Ying Ying bowed down, and said that it was good.

Daoist Zishan took a sip of tea, put down the tea bowl and said, "I am friends with the eldest prince, but we people in the Dao Fa do not participate in your housework. The old man passed away, what will and message, you do your own thing, it has nothing to do with me, and I will not interfere. This time, the main thing is to conduct an autopsy to verify the cause of death of the deceased. If the cause of death is okay, what should you do, if I want to find out what is wrong," he said twice: "The official should report to the official." If you are wronged, you have a debtor, and if you kill someone, you will have to pay for your life, right? So this time, the bright face was invited by the eldest prince, but it was actually for the heavens. ”

Zishan Daochang's eloquence is really amazing, and when he says this, it makes sense. The people present looked at each other and couldn't say anything. When the son's suspicion of his father's death was strange, he wanted to see the corpse, and he said it was reasonable.

The second wife said: "The opening of the coffin and the autopsy is always a big deal, do you have to notify the clansmen of all ethnic groups in the family, everyone has a witness." ”

The second wife dared to say this, it should have nothing to do with her, and she was full of confidence. I nodded from the side, this little lady doesn't look at her age, but she speaks and does things in an orderly manner, and she is indeed a housekeeper.

"Yo Yo," the eldest prince sneered: "It's not your turn to be in charge yet, so you are in a hurry to give orders now?" Butler, what do you mean? ”

The housekeeper hesitated and said: "I think this matter is still ugly, don't spread it, no matter how you get it, as long as the coffin is opened, it is not a good thing for the reputation of the family." Can it be done in secret? ”

At present, the opinions of the two factions cannot be discussed for a while. The second wife advocated that since the coffin was opened, everyone should know about it, but the eldest prince and the housekeeper didn't want to be so ostentatious. The eldest prince secretly asked Zishan if he was sure. Zishan Daoist took a sip of tea and said lightly, it can only be determined after the coffin is opened, and it is difficult to say now.

This ancient family ethics drama is much better than the TV series, especially here is Zishan Daochang, I am invisible anyway, none of them can see me, I looked at them with interest with Erlang's legs.

Now that Zishan Daoist has appeared, I feel much more at ease, as long as I follow him, it is much more reliable than going blind by myself.

In the end, everyone discussed it for a circle and reached a consensus that since this matter has been decided to be done, it will be done immediately at midnight today. The eldest prince is in a hurry, he is afraid that after the turn of the day, the second wife will do something behind his back, and then he will not be able to explain it inside and out. The so-called soldier is fast.

Seeing that the hour was not early, these people in the house sighed and went to the morgue in the backyard. I followed.

When I arrived at the hall in the backyard, that is, the mourning hall where the coffin was placed, there were not many people left, only a few family members were taking care of it. The eldest prince impatiently let them all go, and after all the unrelated personnel were evacuated, the door of the hall was closed. There was only one red light left in the room, and the fire flickered and shone on the two large coffins on the ground.

The specifications of these two coffins are different when you look closely, the slightly larger one is placed in the center, and the smaller one is next to it. I think it's the dead old man Fan and the eldest wife.

The housekeeper brought a chair to the second wife, and the second lady really had the demeanor of a general at a young age, so she sat on the chair and said softly: "Let's go, aren't you guys doing an autopsy, the body is in the coffin." Just look at it. ”

The eldest prince shouted: "You are arrogant." The fart came to the front of Zishan Dao Chang, and cautiously: "Dao Chief, are you starting?" ”

Zishandao's face sank like water, with both hands dusting, and when he came to the big coffin, he didn't rush to do it, but circled around the coffin twice.

I stepped back and looked out of everyone's back. You must know that this is not the real world after all, but the realm of bardo, in which there are all kinds of mysteries, all kinds of violations of cognition.

The biggest weirdness is that we have been looking for Mr. Fan's whereabouts, and the only clue at present is that Mr. Fan is dead. In other words, he died again in the bardo realm, which is a bit bizarre.

I touched my chin and thought about it, and suddenly noticed a problem, touched the edge of a key point, and was about to think about it, Zishan Daoist had already moved, came to the coffin with both arms, and shouted: "Open the coffin!" ”

The lid of the coffin "creaked" and began to move, slowly opening a gap, and Zishan Daochang continued to push, and the gap became bigger and bigger.

Big enough to probably see the situation inside, the Taoist chief stopped exerting himself and ordered the butler to bring the lantern.

The atmosphere in the room was gloomy, and the housekeeper was trembling, and his legs were weak, and he couldn't take a step. The eldest prince scolded "no interest", went over to the table in person, picked up the lantern and handed it to the chief of Zishan Dao.

The Taoist chief held a red lantern and shone it into the coffin, and suddenly froze. The eldest prince was the closest, and he noticed something wrong, so he cautiously came behind the Taoist chief, probed his head and looked down, and he was stunned at this look.

Several other people looked at each other, and the second wife coughed and said to the housekeeper, you go over and see what is going on.

The housekeeper was almost scared to death, his legs were weak, and the beads of sweat on his face were like soybeans, crackling and falling.

The second wife frowned slightly, she was a weak woman who stood up and walked to the coffin, she was really a little bold.

The second wife came to the coffin, looked inside, and exclaimed, "What's going on?" ”

Only then did the eldest prince react, grabbed the second wife's clothes, and said hoarsely: "You demon woman, say, what did you do to my father?" ”

The second wife struggled, tears came out, "You let go, you let go!" What a system! ”

"Let her go!" Zishan Daoist roared, the eldest prince was most afraid of this Taoist priest, so he quickly let go of his hand. The Taoist chief had a gloomy face: "This matter should have nothing to do with her, you guys take the coffin lid down and talk about it." ”

The eldest prince beckoned to the butler, and several butlers came over with relish, and together they lifted the lid of the coffin to the ground.

I was full of curiosity, and thought that there should be no danger, so I walked over and looked at the coffin by the light of the fire. What you see is completely different from what you imagined.

There was no corpse in the coffin, but a bamboo pole lying down, which was more than one person high, yellowish as a whole, and had knots every few tens of centimeters, which looked like an extremely ordinary bamboo in the south.

The eldest prince really looked like a filial son at this time, jumping up and down in the hall, and angrily rushed to the crown: "Where is my father's corpse? Where did you dogs hide my father's corpse? ”

Several housekeepers knelt on the ground, crying: "The eldest prince, you are angry and angry, and we don't know." The coffin was sealed directly when the master passed away the day before yesterday, and there was always someone guarding it during the period, and it was absolutely impossible for outsiders to come in. ”

"There are no outsiders, there are internal ghosts! Everyone from the inside out has to go through a sieve, especially these house slaves who guard the mourning hall, one by one! The eldest prince roared.

The second wife was pulled just now, and at this time she tried to calm down her grievances and excitement, "Can you calm down and listen to what the Taoist chief says, the Taoist chief has nothing to do with us." ”

"Dao Chief!" The eldest prince looked at Zishan Daochang.

Zishan Daoist looked at the bamboo pole in the coffin and was stunned, and breathed a sigh of relief for a long time, his face was confused, "How did the old man die?" ”

There was a housekeeper who walked on his knees and took two steps forward, "The master has always been obsessed with becoming an immortal, Dao Chief, you can go to the study and Dan Pharmacy to take a look, it is full of books and medicines for Taoist cultivators." Just the day before yesterday, the old man was meditating in the inner room, and told us plainly that we would call him when the sun went down in the evening. I was the most trusted person of the master, so I went to call, and when I went to the inner room, the master was motionless and tilted his head. I measured it with my hands, and I ran out of breath, and I was so scared that I lost my pulse. Hurry up to find the second wife, the second wife ordered to go to the doctor Su Shengshou in the city, and after the doctor finished reading, told us that the person was dead, and let us deal with the aftermath. ”

"Why didn't you call me when something so big happened? Have you been trying to hide it from me? The eldest prince shouted.

The second wife sneered: "Call you, where can I call you, go to Yihong Courtyard?" ”

The eldest prince was furious, and he came up to pull the second wife again, and was hugged tightly by the housekeeper, and the housekeeper cried and said: "The eldest son, the second wife is your little mother, there is a difference between the top and bottom, respect the young and orderly, you don't do things that have a bad family style." ”

Zishan Dao Chang came over and pressed the eldest prince's shoulder, signaling calm, and the eldest prince nodded: "Yes, I was reasonable, but I ignored it after such a toss." I won't have anything to do with you, I will immediately gather the elders of the Fan clan and let those old guys comment on the reasoning. ”

Zishan said at a long time: "You calm down first, the appearance of bamboo poles is actually a good thing." ”

"Dao Chief, why do you say such a thing, what kind of good thing is this?" The eldest prince was not convinced.

Zishan Daoist said: "The old man is likely to have cultivated into an autopsy immortal. ”

"What, what is an autopsy immortal?" Everyone in the room asked questions at the same time.
