Chapter 323: Falling into the Coffin
Before that, I basically did it myself. Even Jiang Yifeng, who has been with me for so long, has never had his turn to do it alone. The reason for this is probably that I can't fully trust myself, let alone others.
But this time, I quietly changed my habits.
In fact, I was thinking just now that if someone could stay and help me control this corpse, which could rise at any time, maybe I would be a little more at ease when I left. But after thinking about it, I was surprised to find that no one left me at ease. On the contrary, no matter who stays, I will be more worried without exception.
It was now determined that there was only one corpse left in the coffin, and it was a corpse without a soul that could not be raised. So, wouldn't it be good to take this opportunity to let Liu Yunjiu learn to seal the coffin?
If you continue to do this step by step, let them all learn something, and if I encounter a similar situation next time, I won't be without someone to trust.
Thinking like this, I was a little distracted for a while, and I couldn't even hear Jiang Yifeng call me.
He called me a few times but didn't see me respond, jumped down, pulled me and said, "Little coffin, no?" ”
"What...... What not? "When I came back to my senses in a trance, I saw him holding a hammer in one hand and a coffin nail in the other, looking at me with a sad face.
Liu Yunjiu stretched the nail in front of me to show me, and said to me: "Little coffin, you can't nail it in!" ”
When he said this, he was aggrieved, I looked at the nail that was smashed on the head by him, and then looked at him, I really don't know who was more aggrieved.
I took the nail from his hand and looked at it, and I smiled and said, "Sixth brother, look, this nail has made you smash like this, what's the use of you giving me?" Go get the new one, and I'll teach you how to fight. ”
"Okay!" Liu Yunjiu agreed and ran to get a new nail.
While he was getting the new nails, I picked up all the old coffin nails, poured half a bowl of black dog blood mixed with cinnabar liquid, and threw the coffin nails into the bowl to soak. When he brought the new nails, he threw them into the bowl.
Looking at the nails soaking in the bowl, I said to Liu Yunjiu: "Sixth brother, do what we do, let's talk about ingenuity." You said that the coffin was filled with adults and children, tall and short, fat and thin. Regardless of whether the material of the coffin is sandalwood, nanmu, or fir, he has different weights, and it does take strength to lift it, but it is by no means stupid strength. If you use the right method, it's light inside. It's not right, let alone eight people, it's just adding eighty people, it can't be lifted, it just can't be lifted. It's the same with nailing! ”
"But it's not that there is no ...... inside" Liu Yunjiu was quick for a while, and I hurriedly glanced at him to stop him. He suddenly stopped talking, but in fact, he was still unconvinced.
There is no soul in the coffin, where is there any saying that it is light and heavy, can be lifted up, and cannot be lifted?
When I saw that he was not convinced, I preached to him, "Although this coffin has no soul, it is also a spiritual thing. Do you know what a coffin on earth is equivalent to? In the underworld, it is equivalent to the life and death book of Lord Yama, do you understand? What are the nails in the coffin? It's the judge's pen! You have to tell Lord Yama that this man is dead, and you can send a ghost to fetch the souls of the dead. So, can this coffin nail be nailed casually? ”
Liu Yunjiu was convinced.
I took the soaked nails out of the mixed liquid, shook them, and drained the liquid that was running down the top. Only then did he hand it to Liu Yunjiu again and said, "I will teach you a coffin mantra, before each nail is nailed, I will recite a sentence, you will recite it silently in your heart, and then nail the coffin nail into it." Here, take it, try it. ”
Liu Yunjiu took the coffin nail and hammer from my hand in disbelief and climbed up again, but it seemed that he still had no confidence.
Seeing that he was standing firm and his hands were ready, I read: "Guimu seals the coffin with gold nails, and the jade hammer rings lightly to the heavens." One nail blessing rolls in, and the second nail fortune greets each other early; Three nails add Ding and add longevity, and four nails of magpies report peace; The soul of the five nails goes to the west wind, and the six nails enjoy it non-stop; The seven nails are lightly tapped to leave half of it, and there is a head and a tail, and the eyes are clear. ”
Every time I read a sentence, I observed Liu Yunjiu's movements, and watched him keep up with his movements without any delay, so I put my mind at ease.
In fact, by the time he struck the first nail in the coffin, his faith had already risen. Because the first nail was smooth, he knocked down the next six with confidence, and it was also very smooth.
Since Zhang Youquan was watching from the side, half of the sixth nail was knocked down by him. When the seven coffin nails were nailed in order, Liu Yunjiu looked obviously relieved when he came down.
He rubbed his hands together and said to me, "Little coffin, there are too many doorways here, and I still know too little." I didn't remember that paragraph too clearly, will you teach me later? ”
"There is an opportunity to learn." I smiled at him, "But you have to remember that this is where I deliberately led you to nail the nail in the coffin, and next time you will have to consciously choose the direction yourself." According to our habit here, there is a rule in the order in which the nails are nailed, and they must be nailed all the way to the west side, and there is no turning back. Otherwise, you know the implications? If you nail the nail back, there is a possibility that the deceased will go back! So, this point must be remembered. ”
Liu Yunjiu nodded, and I asked him to go out and ask the Eight Immortals to come in and lift the coffin.
This time, the coffin was much lighter.
When the mourning basin was broken again, the mourning basin was also broken, and it didn't take much effort.
After the coffin was lifted smoothly, my mood became much better.
But along the way, leading the Eight Immortals to carry the soulless coffin inside, and when I walked to the foot of the tomb mountain, I couldn't help but think of the things in the misty forest.
Including the sister-in-law of the Yu family and Zhang Youquan, the relatives of the corpse in the coffin do not know yet, and their husband's soul is gone. Now it was nothing more than a corpse that had no effect.
I really want to uncover the secrets of the Misty Forest sooner and meet the guy who is trying to resurrect himself. If I could, I would have liked to be able to bring back all the souls that had been snatched away, but unfortunately, this wish may seem to me to be just a wish forever.
When the coffin was carried to the place, the coffin was put aside for the time being, and everyone dug the grave together. I took a large pile of things that Zhang Youquan had prepared according to my instructions, and sprinkled them into the dug soil pit, while reciting words to warm the pit for the deceased.
"The treasure cave here is auspicious, and it gathers Fu Lu Shou Xiqi; Seven ancient coins are inlaid with Beidou, and the two sides of the ancient coins are drawn east and west; The four-legged golden toad is placed at the four corners, and the coffin base of Qinglong Xuanwu Town; Five-color grain is sprinkled in five directions, and the harvest is prosperous; The disciple looks for the dragon and points to the treasure hole, and the treasure hole is really good; Good fate in this life and gathering in the next life, yin and yang are reversed, and people are inseparable; The sandalwood bridge is in the middle span, and it is moved outward due to disasters and dangers; Wenchang Star shines on Wenchang Tower, and all official fortunes and financial fortunes are gathered; The guiding treasure lamp is turned on to guide the soul to all things. ”
The rosin was sprinkled in the grave pit, set on fire, and when the rosin fire was extinguished and there was residual warmth in the pit, I asked the eight immortals to lift the coffin high and drop it gently, and then fill in the soil and knock goodbye.
Along the way, I didn't pay much attention to the others, except for the soaking kid, who made me feel quite strange at that time.
He's really not that old, but the serious look he looks like when he does things can't help but make people want to praise him. When everything was taken care of here, what I didn't expect was that on the way back, he took the initiative to come with me.
