Chapter Forty-Seven: The Ownerless Lonely Soul
Guza looked at the master in amazement, he seemed to be as confused as me, even more confused than me, I was also at a loss by the master, what the master was saying, I didn't understand a word, but the master's reprimand just now made me honest like a fart, I didn't dare to say a word, I could only sit honestly and behave on the sidelines, watching the master and Guzha talk.
"Mr. Yang, why did you check my father's body for my own good?" Guzha stared at the master puzzled, as if he wanted to clarify this question, and after thinking about it, Guzha said again: "Then my father ......"
Suddenly!
Halfway through Guza's words, the three of us almost simultaneously heard an inexplicable trembling sound from downstairs, which was very much like the sound of a wooden board being pressed by a medium pressure, more like a ...... Someone is walking downstairs!
I hurriedly glanced at the people present, Master, Guza, and me, the number is right, there are only three of us left in this house now, there shouldn't be a fourth person, why is there a sound of footsteps downstairs? Guza also seemed to hear clearly, and immediately opened his eyes wide, and said in a trembling voice: "Daddy?!" ”
"Wait!" The master suddenly waved his hand to stop Guzha, who wanted to go downstairs to see what was going on, and frowned, "Don't go down, I'll go down and have a look!" ”
I was frightened by Master's actions, and I was also frightened by the strange sound coming from downstairs, the faint footsteps, very much like a person walking underneath, but I don't know if it's Guza's father, Guli, but if it's really Guza's father, Guli, then, isn't it a newly dead soul?!
I wouldn't necessarily be scared if I encountered a ghost in front of the drum and the gong in front of me, but the more this kind of scene that I can't see and hear strange sounds, the more it can break people's hearts and arouse people's most primitive sense of fear. Soon, there was a "squeak" from the floor downstairs again, slight and crisp, Master slowly stood up, walked to the staircase with his hands behind his back, I thought Master would go downstairs, but Master did not go downstairs, but stood at the staircase, raised his foot and stomped three feet.
Ge Di, the slight sound downstairs is gone in an instant.
The Master was still standing at the top of the stairs with his hands on his back, and after a long while, he slowly turned around, walked back to the bed, and then said, "Guza, tell me, did you not set up a tablet for your father?" Set up a spiritual seat for your father tomorrow. ”
"Tablet?" Guza asked in surprise, and then said, "No one told me about the tablet, I, I don't understand it at all." ”
I know a little bit about this, and I said: "Guza, if there is no tablet, then your father will become an ownerless and lonely soul, and there is nowhere to settle down." ”
"Isn't there a graveyard?" Guza said suspiciously: "The old people say that the cemetery is the home of the deceased relatives, but we can't see that home. ”
"That's right......" I was suddenly speechless by Guza, but I forgot that the cemetery is also a yin house, and there is a yin house to live in, how can a dead soul who has just died become an ownerless lonely soul? I didn't know what to say for a while, so I turned my head to look at Master, hoping that Master would make it clear.
The master stared at Guzha and said, "What if there is no tablet and the Yin Mansion cannot enter? Isn't that an ownerless soul? ”
Guzha was stunned, then scratched the back of his head, and said hurriedly: "What Mr. Yang said, I don't understand a lot, the grave was dug by my own hands, and it is also my buried father, how can Daddy not live in a yin house?" How can you not enter the mansion? I still don't understand, can Mr. Yang be simpler, my heart is messed up now, I thought it would be fine if I buried my father, but I didn't expect that there would be such a serious problem now. ”
The master nodded and said: "In this case, I will tell you in detail, the black wind vortex you saw in front of the cemetery before, and the lonely soul that just wandered downstairs, is the soul of your father who just died, he can't go to the graveyard now, it's not that there is no Yin Mansion, but the Yin Mansion no longer belongs to him, plus you don't have a tablet in time, so your father's soul has no dependence, the reason why your father can't enter the Yin House, dig up the grave tomorrow and take a look, you will understand the reason." ”
Still have to dig up the grave, but what does Master want to see?
I was stunned and asked, "Master, could it be that Guzha's father's mansion has been invaded by other lonely souls and wild ghosts?" ”
The master shook his head: "No, now the teacher is just speculating, before seeing it with his own eyes, he can't be determined, but if the teacher expects it to be good, Guza's father's corpse has been deeply infected with corpse poison, and the corpse should be stiff, but according to Guza's previous words, his father's internal organs have been hollowed out, and his heart is naturally not there, that is to say, just being poisoned by the corpse will not cause the corpse to change, let alone become a zombie, but the corpse in that tomb is just a corpse that is deeply stained with corpse poison, and the corpse poison seals the nine orifices, and the soul can't enter the body at all, That is, if there is a yin house and there is nothing to follow, if the soul can still enter, there will be no zombies, and zombies will not be formed. ”
"What?" I looked at Master in amazement, and it wasn't until this moment that I understood what Master meant, and it turned out ......, "Master, you mean that Guza's father was killed by zombies?" But the zombie only took out the internal organs of Guza's father, so even if Guza's father was deeply infected with corpse poison, he couldn't become a zombie, right? ”
The master hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you remember the green-haired zombie you dealt with in Linjiang Village?" How did that green-haired zombie die? ”
I widened my eyes slightly, and said hurriedly: "Master, do you suspect that the green-haired zombie's death is the same as Guza's father's death?" And the murderer hidden in the shadows has come to Liantai Town from Linjiang Village?! ”
"No!" Master rejected my speculation and said, "I can't be sure if it's a zombie or not, but I can easily kill a green-haired zombie...... But your guess is not right, the murderer hidden in the shadows is neither living in Linjiang Village for a long time, nor here, in the eyes of the teacher, it is more like wandering around, waiting for an opportunity to attack, both ferocious and weird, and even the teacher has been suspicious from the beginning...... Let's not talk about this first, we'll see later! ”
Master was halfway through his words, and suddenly stopped talking, but it made me feel uncomfortable, what did Master suspect? What is suspicion from the start?
Guzha didn't say a word for a long time, and it seemed that he couldn't hear it at all, but he at least understood one sentence: "Mr. Yang, do you mean that my father was killed by some zombie?" And my dad may also turn into a zombie, so his soul can't enter the mansion, right? ”
The master thought for a while, nodded and said: "Although I can't be sure yet, but that's probably it, of course, this is all my current speculation, you have to really open the tomb and see the corpse to be sure, Guza, as for whether to open the tomb or not, this decision is in your hands, if you don't agree with us offending your father's tomb, we will never open it rashly, but in any case, you have to go to the town tomorrow to find a carpenter to help make a tablet, write your father's name, and worship more." ”
Guza looked at the master in a daze, and after a long time, he nodded: "Hmm! ”
Of course, I think Master chose to come to Guzha's house because he seemed to know in advance that something strange was going on in Guzha's house, but I don't understand how Master knew everything, and every time it was as if he had seen it with his own eyes, and he said it accurately.
I don't know when I slept, anyway, I was asleep, hazy, I vaguely heard Master and Guzha talking for a long time, but I didn't hear anything specifically talking, maybe it was some comforting words.
When I woke up, it was already noon the next day, this sleep was really comfortable, I didn't sleep well for two days, and I finally made up for it today, but when I got up, I found that Master's bed and Guza's bed were folded well, as if they hadn't been touched at all, and the two of them, not on the second floor, guessed that they got up early in the morning and went out.
I rubbed my sleepy eyes, and it would have been more comfortable to sleep a little longer, but since I woke up but didn't get up, Master would definitely scold me for being lazy, so I thought about it and put on my clothes and shoes and went downstairs.
In the big house on the first floor, on the god case, is a newly erected tablet placed by Guza, on which is the name of his father Gu Li, at this moment, he is offering incense, and the master is standing on the side, the scene is very serious, seeing me come downstairs, Gu Li finished worshipping his father, he got up and took out a few shovels from the farm tools, carried them on his shoulders together, and said to the master, "Mr. Yang, let's go!" ”
As soon as I saw Guza's posture, I dared to agree to dig up his father's grave, and hurriedly said in surprise: "Go to the cemetery now?" But I haven't eaten yet! ”
After saying that, I scratched my head in embarrassment, and as soon as I got up, I felt a little hungry, and I went to the cemetery to have the strength to work......
Master glanced at me angrily and said, "Who told you to get up so late, the sun is about to go down before you get up!" ”
I pouted and said aggrievedly: "I've been so busy these days that I haven't even bothered to sleep, and I was finally able to sleep last night, so didn't I sleep a little longer...... Besides, it's still noon, and it's still early for the sun to go down......"
Guzha smiled and said: "Brother Ergou, don't worry, the food has been packed for you, it's in the baggage, and there is water, you can eat it on the road, let's go." ”
After speaking, Guzha handed me the prepared food baggage, and there were indeed prepared rice balls and a pot of water in it, I picked up the rice balls and ate them, and immediately shouted to work, as long as there is food, there is no problem in working, but the master looked at me like an idiot, and I suddenly felt that my words were a little abrupt, this work was nothing else, but to dig Guza's father's grave, although Guzha showed a relaxed face, but his heart must be uncomfortable. I was acting elated, and there was something inappropriate.
