Chapter 144: The first seven do not return to the soul
I finally persuaded Brother Gu to stop howling, and then I found an opportunity to ask the reason for the incident.
It turned out that since I didn't agree to help him erect the monument, he had to find someone to carve the monument himself.
However, he had no experience in this area, and he didn't even know who to look for, let alone what kind of monument to use.
After thinking about it all night, he finally decided to go around the tomb mountain, hoping to see some different monuments on it, and then carefully study which one is better.
When I went to the grave mountain, of course, there was no reason not to take a look at yesterday's new grave.
But just when he wandered to the place where the child was buried yesterday and stood there and looked at it for a while, he suddenly found that the dirt bag buried yesterday had traces of passivity!
Now he was in a hurry, and he didn't care about looking for any shovels, but took local materials, and dug up the soil that had been filled yesterday with his hands, wooden sticks, etc.
Listening to him say this, I noticed that his hands were bloodstained, and it made people feel pitiful when they looked at him.
When he opened the grave bag, he saw that inside the grave, the urn coffin was well placed there, as if it had never been moved.
But as a father, Brother Gu is very concerned about his children's things. Even if he is usually careless, he still pays close attention to the urn coffin.
He knew at a glance that the lid of the urn coffin had definitely been opened! Because the twine that was wrapped around it was very different from the way I tied it yesterday.
If before he opened it, he only suspected that this urn coffin had been moved, then now, he is sure! Certitude! This urn must have been touched.
didn't have time to think about anything else, he hurriedly opened the urn coffin, and the result can be imagined, the urn coffin is good, but the child inside is already gone.
"Is it possible, it's a secret marriage again?" Perhaps for fear of irritating Big Brother Gu, Jiang Yifeng leaned over and whispered in my ear.
I thought about it and quickly shook my head and vetoed it.
Not to mention that such a young child died young, usually people buried it directly, and there was no such a big deal as the Gu family. Even if there were, I had never heard of such a young child deserving of a secret marriage.
Maybe I'm lonely, but I don't think it has anything to do with the marriage.
Seeing me shaking his head, Big Brother Gu suddenly became nervous.
He said to me, "Little coffin, I was not good just now!" It's me who is in such a hurry! I apologize to you. You tell me how I can get my children back. As long as I can get it back, I can do anything! β
I also have a headache about this.
How can it be so easy to get the child back?
There was a corpse left on the grave hill, and it was still the body of a child. Not to mention that the guy obviously stole it at night, even if he stole it during the day, no one on the grave mountain would happen to see it!
In this way, there is not even a witness, and I am not a full-time policeman who solves cases, where can I find it?
I offered to call the police, but he wouldn't. It's like he relied on me, so he asked me to help him find out the child, as if he only believed me.
This situation makes me speechless, the police have good methods, but I only have some crooked methods......
Well, if he wants to, then it's okay for me to give it a try.
Thinking of this, I said to Brother Gu: "Brother Gu, I can help you, but when the time comes, don't blame me for delaying your time." If I say, it's better for you to report the case, and if the police can't find it, then we'll use some off-the-beaten-path methods. After all, I don't have any bottom of my methods, and it's really hard to say that I can't find it if I can find it. β
Although I have already said this, Big Brother Gu still insists on using my method to try it first, and I have no choice but to agree to him.
But my method is indeed very clichΓ©, even if I don't say it, Big Brother Gu himself can guess it.
"Brother Gu, in fact, my method is very simple, if you calculate it, tomorrow will be the child's first seven. People say that the first seven will return to the soul, you know, right? β
"Yes, yes, why didn't I think of that?" Big Brother Gu said again and again, "However, according to the rules, isn't it impossible to meet?" β
"But now it's gone!" I explained, "It's different, it's a different story. β
According to tradition, the deceased will go home on the night of the first seven days to see their family for the last time. But in general, family members are not allowed to attempt to meet the deceased.
The best way to deal with it is for the family to prepare the deceased's last meal and then avoid it. Even if you can't sleep, you have to hide under the covers and can't open your eyes no matter what you hear.
If the deceased sees the eyes of his family, he will feel that his family is reluctant to leave, and at the same time, the deceased will be reluctant to leave his home, stay in the world, and miss reincarnation.
But now the situation is different, the body is lost, if you can ask where the soul body went, then there is hope to find it.
But what gives me a bit of a headache is that the child is too young, not to mention whether the soul can talk to the living, and even if it can, the child can't speak, what can I do?
What I was worried about was not what Big Brother Gu was worried about, and he said to me: "As long as I can see my son's soul, we father and son are connected, and I will definitely be able to figure out who stole his body!" β
Seeing that he is so obsessed, then I have no other way, just remind him not to do anything radical when the time comes, so as not to really affect the reincarnation of the child.
In order to prevent him from getting emotional, I also made a point of offering to accompany him when the time comes.
Brother Gu was very grateful to me for offering to accompany me.
On the same day, Jiang Yifeng and I followed him to his home and helped him arrange the decoration first. I was busy until I returned home in the afternoon, and the next day, I went to Gu's house early and waited with Brother Gu.
At night, Brother Gu comforted Aunt Gu and sister-in-law to go to sleep first, while he sat in the hall with me and Jiang Yifeng, waiting quietly.
The three of us waited until the sun had just set, but there was no movement in the house. Such an abnormality can't help but alert me.
Brother Gu grabbed me in despair, and kept asking me if the child was blaming him, whether the child was unwilling to come back.
I shook my head and retorted to something like that.
I'm sure it's not that the child doesn't want to come back, it's that something is holding his soul and preventing him from coming back.
Brother Gu had already seen that there was no child's body in the urn coffin, that is to say, the urn coffin had been opened. In that case, the imprisonment of the child's soul could not have been caused by the carelessness of my urn coffin, but must have been something else unknown. So, what exactly is it? Until now, I didn't know.
Waiting until the sky was bright, Brother Gu's eyes were full of sadness, he grabbed me and said, "Little coffin, what is going on?" I beg you, please help me! You must help me get my son back! The kid was so bitter that he ...... He didn't deserve so much suffering! β
How could I not have known that the child was innocent?
But the facts are in front of me, and the child's soul can't come back, so what should I do?
At this moment, Jiang Yifeng mentioned the matter of conjuring spirits to me again. I frowned, and I couldn't say yes rashly. After all, the enemy situation is unknown now, if someone really deliberately imprisons the child's soul, will I rashly summon the soul, will it anger the other party?
