When I was at the door just now, I had already looked around the house and there was nothing wrong with it.

The abundant sunlight shines in the yard, dissipating all the gloom, and it doesn't look like a place where problems can occur.

But as soon as I entered the old man's room, I felt a cold air burrowing into my body.

I also noticed that the others were unconsciously tightening their clothes, and it seemed that they were also feeling the cold.

It's just that they didn't pay much attention to me, and walked directly to the old man's side.

The others didn't speak, and I naturally didn't talk much, so I could only tighten my clothes and walk in.

"Little coffin, we hope that my father can be buried in a beautiful manner, if there are any rules, you just have to order, I have asked people to prepare some things before, you see what else is missing, I am asking people to prepare."

I looked in the direction pointed by Zhang Hong, copper basins, towels, shrouds, ingots, copper coins, etc. can be said to be readily available.

It's not hard to see that they're really well prepared.

They had all arranged it so carefully that I couldn't find any other problems now, so I nodded.

"Brother Zhang, everything is complete, if there is no problem, we will prepare for the burial first."

Zhang Hong nodded in agreement, and I began to arrange.

After they all stood up, I found that I was standing in a row with Zhang Hong who had just stood up to question me, and I realized that the two of them were brothers.

And the two of them also have a pair of children, standing behind them.

After a brief understanding of their family composition, I also began to get busy.

First of all, I asked all the relatives of the old man to line up layer by layer according to the order of generations, and then brought copper basins, shrouds, towels, etc.

"When you return, you are neat, when you go, you are clean, and your filial sons and grandsons are dressed!"

Zhang Hong and Zhang Qiang stood up, and two people walked in front of me.

I said to the two of them seriously: "Next, you two should help your father cleanse his body, remember to wipe every place clean, and then put on the shroud."

The two of them nodded earnestly.

Then I asked the female relatives present to turn around and avoid it, and handed the wet towel to Zhang Qiang and Zhang Hong, and asked the two of them to start helping to clean themselves.

It can be seen that the two of them are very filial, and when they are clean, they are very serious, and even when they start to wear shrouds, they are extra careful.

As if their father was still alive in the world, they were very cautious for fear of hurting their father.

Soon I had put on my shroud, and it was my turn.

I first had the coffin carried into the mourning hall, and then I took the yellow paper and copper plate and began to arrange the coffin.

I covered the bottom of the coffin with yellow paper, which is a common currency in the underworld.

Spread the coffin with yellow paper, and when the old man lies in, it is like being surrounded by money, and in the future, it will be like using money, and you can take it out at will.

Then I placed the eight copper plates on the four corners of the coffin and on the four directions of the south, east, west, and west.

This copper coin is also exquisite, indicating that the copper coin opens the way in all directions, and after the old man goes down, there will be nothing in charge.

The coffin has been arranged, and as a coffin bearer, I should carry another very important task, which is to carry the old man into the coffin.

Because the old executioner had a situation before, in order to prevent them from suddenly changing in the process of carrying the corpse, they needed to be tied up with a corpse rope first.

But because Mr. Zhang went to bed at the end of his life, there was no possibility of corpse transformation, so he could omit this step.

Then I went back to the room, took the old man by the arms, and put him directly on my shoulder.

As soon as I got up, Zhang Hong and Zhang Qiang hurriedly took out a red envelope and stuffed it into my arms.

When I was dealing with the aftermath, there was a lot of talk in it, and when I picked up the deceased, it was equivalent to me taking the deceased to the place where he should go.

So usually the relatives of the deceased will start sending me red envelopes to thank me for helping the deceased.

And how big this red envelope is, it depends on the other party's family situation, if you have a good family background, you will give you more, and if you have a bad family background, it is normal to give a few cents and a few yuan.

However, because of the aftermath, there was originally a benefit, and I didn't care much about whether the red envelope was more or less.

The old man easily put on his shoulders, and I began to carry the old man out on my back.

At first, it was easy, but when I got to the door, I felt that the weight on my body was getting heavier.

I can't help but underestimate in my heart, it stands to reason that the old man is dying, and he has successfully carried it again, there shouldn't be any problems?

But the growing pressure on me reminded me that something seemed to be wrong.

I was so curious, but I didn't say it.

After all, telling them this now is just adding to their troubles.

I didn't know exactly how it was, and it wouldn't be good to make trouble when the time came.

Although the weight on his back began to sink, I still carried the old man into the coffin smoothly.

When the old man's body was laid down, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Then I asked someone to refill a basin of water and prepare to wash their faces.

This face wash is still very particular, although it is called face washing, but it is not really a face wash.

Instead, let the descendants of the deceased take turns to clean the deceased's cheeks according to the arrangement of the main mourner.

Where everyone has only one place, they wash their faces for the dead, and the dead bless them.

Zhang Hong and Zhang Qiang, as his son, naturally helped the old man clean his cheeks first, they held towels, and they cleaned up whichever part I asked them to clean.

After the two cleaned up, they replaced the grandchildren of the deceased.

According to the number of personnel, I have already calculated it in my heart, so when the last person is done, the old man's entire face has been wiped clean.

After washing the old man's face, I asked everyone to circle the coffin three times clockwise and three times counterclockwise. Then they went back to their places and stood.

And I took the ingots and copper coins.

Since ancient times, after the deceased is put into the coffin, he must immediately have money in his hand, because it is said that the deceased has just become a ghost, and many evil spirits will run out to block the way to the underworld.

If these evil spirits cannot be sent away, and the deceased is delayed to report to the underworld, the deceased will also become evil ghosts and wander in the world.

Therefore, after entering the coffin, it is necessary to let the deceased hold the money in his hand, and when there is an evil spirit, he may take it out and send the evil spirit away, so as not to delay his own time.

Then he stuffed two ingots into the old man's hand.
