When a person dies, the first thing is a small burial.

This must be done early, and even some people have already done it before they die.

The reason is very simple, when a person has just died, there is still a remnant of yang energy on his body, and the corpse at this time is as soft as a living person. But once this time has passed, the person's body will harden, and when the time comes, it will be very difficult to put on the deceased again.

According to our customs, we generally have to prepare seven sets of clothes, from the inside to the outside, clothes, pants, shoes, hats, quilts, etc., must be readily available.

Old Man Sun died of his old life, and these things that should be used have been prepared a long time ago. And it was done by his daughter herself, which shows her intentions. At this time, the eldest son and the second son put on a longevity dress for him.

Since I had been entrusted by someone, I stood aside and instructed Mr. Sun's family to shave his head, shave his face, change his body, put on his shroud, and finally cover his face with white silk.

By this time, Jiang Yifeng, who was called by the village chief back, had also hurried to arrive with my things.

I asked Mr. Sun's eldest son and second son to help, put a corpse rope on Mr. Sun's shoulder, and carry the person flat into the coffin that had been prepared.

All of this is going well, but the only thing I need to remind from time to time is that the family members of the Sun family must not let tears fall on Old Man Sun's body or in the coffin. Otherwise, Old Man Sun will be reluctant to leave because he is reluctant, resulting in missing the opportunity to be reincarnated.

But when it came time to sort out the funeral belongings, I found a problem.

According to our tradition here, the coffin of the deceased must never be empty, but something should be buried with it. This thing can be pots and pans, or wooden combs and so on, regardless of category or value, but be sure to put it.

But there are some things that you can't put in no matter what.

For example, I found a mink coat from it.

When they saw me take out the mink coat from the coffin, the people of the Sun family looked at me.

The grandson called him uncle, and when he saw me holding a mink coat in his hand, he hesitated for a moment, then came over to me and said, "Little coffin, what's wrong?" Is there anything wrong with that? ”

I nodded, looking back and forth, left and right.

We were relatively poor here, and there were very few people who could afford mink coats at that time. So, it was the first time I had seen something like this, and I thought it was quite a novelty.

Uncle Sun may have looked at me from front to back, left and right, and thought that I was interested in this dress, but because I was required to do something, he didn't say anything unpleasant.

But in reality, that's not the case.

The reason why I did this is because it is not possible to bury the dead.

"This dress can't be taken to the underworld for the old man." I said to Uncle Sun.

Uncle Sun's face suddenly became a little unsightly, and he said to me: "This mink coat was rewarded to my father by a handsome man back then. My dad liked this mink coat very much. I'm getting old, I'm getting old, and I've been clamoring to take it with me. We are juniors, of course, we have to deal with it according to the old man's instructions, although this dress is expensive, but the old man likes it, just let it go with the old man. ”

This can be said to be very polite, I also know that this thing is the beloved thing of Old Man Sun, but there is no way, the rules are the rules. In order to make the old man truly feel at ease, and to be reincarnated smoothly and become a new person, this thing must be abandoned.

Thinking of this, I explained to Uncle Sun: "Uncle Sun, it's not that I don't want the old man to leave with this mink coat. I also know that this dress is very expensive, and the old man likes it very much. But according to the rules of our industry, the things that are buried in the coffin must not be hairy. Otherwise, it will be a great obstacle to the old man's reincarnation in the future. ”

The rules of the funeral industry, it can be said that I have been exposed to it since I was a child, and I know it very well. But for those who are not in this business, it is not so clear. At best, it can only be half-understood.

Therefore, after listening to my words, the doubts in their eyes did not decrease, but only increased the suspicions in them.

Uncle Sun probably couldn't tell for a moment whether what I said was true or false, and looked at the two sisters and younger brother. Second Uncle Sun looked at the eldest brother, stood up, and asked me, "Little coffin master, this thing is indeed very fond of my old man." If there's anything to say, tell us about it, and maybe there's a solution. ”

Seeing that they insisted on listening, I had nothing to say. I thought about it for a moment and explained to a few people, "Actually, it's very simple to say that this rule is very simple. But the solution, except to take it out, really has nothing else. Since you must listen, then I will tell you nothing. ”

In fact, since ancient times, there has been such a rule in the selection of funeral goods. It's true that there is no category or value, but no funeral goods can have hair, especially animal hair.

Otherwise, there is a high probability that two consequences will occur.

The first is that after death, people may have done some wrong things in their lives, and the sticky hair strayed into the animal path. Since he has become an animal, he will naturally not be able to realize his wish to be reincarnated as a human after that.

The second, compared to the former, is even more terrifying. Everyone knows that the most common condition of the corpse is that it slowly decays over time, but there are also two situations that do not decay, one is that the body does not decay after the death of the Buddhist monk during his lifetime, or there are unique five products in the funeral goods that can keep the body intact; But the other is that the corpse does not decay, but grows hair and becomes a zombie, so that it will naturally not decay, and it can also cultivate towards a higher level, and even see the light of day again. Fur or even animal fur in the burial goods can greatly increase the probability of turning into zombies.

I told this truth to the people of the Sun family, and the people of the Sun family suddenly realized.

Whether it is reincarnated as an animal or a zombie, it means that it cannot be successfully reincarnated as a human, which will affect the loss of the old man to enter the next life.

"In that case...... Forget it in that case. "Although Uncle Sun still wants to do what the old man wants, there is no way, the rules are the rules, and if you don't follow the rules, something big will happen. Reluctantly, he took the mink coat from my hand and went back to the house to put it away carefully.

Second Uncle Sun approached me and asked, "Little coffin, there's nothing else to pay attention to, right?" ”

I thought about it for a while, and then I said: "Human death is a big thing, and there are many things that need to be paid attention to. However, your old man is happy and mourning, and the rules are a little less. When I help you choose the site of the tomb, choose the right time, and arrange for the coffin to be carried, you can do as I say. As for now, the most important thing is to report the funeral. If you have relatives and friends who live far away, you must personally inform them one by one, and the number of gifts you should have must not be missing. When it comes to the day of burial, there are more people, which can also make the old man mourn more and have more face after his death. ”

"Yes, yes, the little coffin is right!" Sun Erbo nodded again and again, "Our brother immediately arranged, as much as possible, our brothers personally delivered the news one by one, it was really too late, and we should try to send the eldest grandson there, so it seems more sincere." Lest people pick our family's gifts in such small things! ”

"Yes, there's no rush to the burial, I'll go see the place first. Choosing a good day and an auspicious day and choosing a good yin house will be of great benefit to both the old man and your descendants. ”

Uncle Sun listened to my words and thanked him again and again. My two brothers personally sent me to the door, and arranged for a grandchild to accompany me to the ancestral grave.
