Tomorrow, my mother has to get up early to go to the local crematorium for cremation, and at the same time, she has to go to the local public security department to bring the household registration book to my grandmother to go through the household registration cancellation procedures. So after instructing me a few words about the taboo of keeping the spirit, I went back to the South House to rest.

I kept all the wakes I told me about my mom. First, I can't let tears fall on my grandmother's corpse; Second, wild cats should not be allowed to get close; Third, the incense candles in the mourning hall cannot be broken all night. Fourth, if your grandmother's body smells bad, tell her immediately.

There are many customs during the wake on our side, such as not wearing jewelry, men not wearing shorts, women not wearing skirts, not wearing hair, not wearing heavy makeup, especially not wearing slippers, showing your toes, and even in summer, you must be patient.

Another custom is that during the wake, a sensible woman should be called to help watch the spirit, in case the family members break the taboo when they fall asleep.

Tonight, I will be with my grandmother's spirit is an aunt surnamed Chang from the neighboring village, who doesn't talk much, but she is very serious.

Watching my mother return to the South House by herself, she said that it was the South House, but it was not in a courtyard, and the courtyard of my grandmother's mourning hall was a single courtyard, at the end of the village.

I don't know if my mom will be able to fall asleep tonight, because my grandmother's death also hit her hard, and her eyes were red all the time she was gone.

Since my grandmother left, the only thing that can comfort us is that my grandmother has gone quickly and has not been tormented by illness.

"Qin Sheng, I said don't be too sad, this life, old age, sickness and death is a predestined rule of God, and none of us can escape." Zhang Zhi walked behind me as he said and patted me lightly on the shoulder.

"Well, you've been doing my house a favor for a day, so hurry back, you still have to go to work tomorrow, go back at night and drive slower, pay attention to safety." I said to Zhang Zhi.

Zhang Zhi looked at the time, nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go back first, if you need my help with anything, just call me." ”

Sending Zhang Zhi out of the door, I took my life to the courtyard, closed the gate, returned to the mourning hall again, and knelt under my grandmother's body.

Looking at my grandmother lying motionless on the wooden bed, I still can't accept that she is really gone, that she will never come back, that I will never hear her voice again, and that I will never see her busy figure again......

The discomfort in my heart and the images of my grandmother in the past constantly appearing in my mind have been haunting me and making me feel painful!

It is only now that I fully realize how painful it is for me to become the person closest to me and leave.

"Grandma, I wish you all the best in the other world, if you miss me, or if you have anything to say to me, you can give me dreams." I looked at my grandmother's body and whispered.

……

Time always sneaks away a little bit inadvertently, unconsciously I have been kneeling alone in front of the mourning hall in the middle of the night, at more than 1 o'clock in the morning, I suddenly heard a rush of dog barking outside the yard, the barking is very urgent, very short, only a few sounds are gone.

I didn't take it to heart and got up to go to the table for a drink. But at this time, a cold wind suddenly blew into the entire mourning hall, and this strange cold wind seemed to turn around, circled around the mourning hall, and then disappeared completely.

I got goosebumps blown by the cold wind just now, and after taking a sip of water in a hurry, I walked towards the outside of the mourning hall, the courtyard was quiet, it was so hot even at night that day I couldn't feel even a hint of breeze.

Since there was no wind, what was the strange cold wind that suddenly appeared in the mourning hall just now?

After experiencing so many supernatural and terrifying things, I began to become sensitive and cautious, and the slightest wind and grass could cause me to be suspicious.

Standing in the courtyard, I called the chaser, and when I saw that it was not abnormal, I put my mind at ease, turned around and returned to the mourning hall to prepare to continue the vigil.

Just as I was kneeling in front of my grandmother's corpse to keep a watch, I suddenly heard a burst of "squeak, squeak", the sound was not loud, but I heard it clearly, it was like the sound of someone constantly scratching the wooden board with his fingernails!

In this silent night, the sound of "squeak" was particularly harsh, which immediately made my whole body feel cold and my scalp tingle.

This...... Where did this sound come from?

I tried to restrain my fear and listened carefully to the direction in which the sound was coming from.

"Hiss~!" When I heard the direction of the voice, I couldn't help but gasp, and I almost didn't go crazy, because the "squeak" sound was clearly coming from the wooden bed where my grandmother was parked!!

I called Aunt Chang, but found that she was not in the mourning hall, it is estimated that eighty percent of her went to the toilet outside, and now I am left alone in the entire mourning hall.

I forced myself to resist my fear, and slowly looked up at my grandmother's hands on the wooden bed in front of me.

When I looked up and saw my grandmother's right hand, I was terrified, because I could clearly see that her right hand was moving again, and she was scratching the wooden bed board under her with her slender fingernails!

The harsh sound of "squeak, squeak, squeak......" made me shudder, because after my grandmother left, her heartbeat and pulse had stopped, and her pupils began to dilate, so she would never 'die' and come back to life.

So how can she explain that she is constantly scratching the bed board with her fingers now? Is this what the old people often call a corpse?!

"Smack!" A crisp sound came from the wooden bed in front of me, and I shuddered all over, and when I looked up, I saw my grandmother's body sitting up from the wooden bed little by little.

At this point, I could no longer control myself, so I hurriedly lay down and crawled under the wooden bed where my grandmother's body was lying and hid.

"Bang!!" Then there was another muffled sound, and I lay under the wooden bed and looked back, clearly seeing my grandmother's feet in black shoes on the ground.

She just stood still, but I could hear her let out a low, weird laugh: "Giggle...... "I was furious all over my body, and I was lying under the wooden bed and couldn't breathe.

I was so terrified that I felt like every bone in my body was trembling.

"Bang!!" There was another muffled sound, and I saw my grandmother's feet in her shoes jumping up and jumping towards the outside of the mourning hall.

It was at this time that Aunt Chang walked back from the yard, and when she saw my grandmother who was 'alive' again, her eyes were wide with fright, and she opened her mouth to shout but couldn't, and her face was full of horror.

"Giggles" I heard a cold chuckle coming from my grandmother's mouth, and then I saw her rush towards Aunt Chang, hugging Aunt Chang with a pair of stiff arms, the tighter and tighter!

Originally, Aunt Chang was so frightened that she couldn't shout, but she was strangled by my grandmother, and she couldn't make a sound, her face instantly turned white, and her lips kept opening and closing, but she just couldn't shout......

Since I was a child, I have heard that once a person after death cheats the corpse, when he gets up, he will pounce on the person and hold on to it until he is strangled to death.

My grandmother just hugged Aunt Chang and jumped in the mourning hall, and while jumping, she let out a weird low laugh: "Giggles......"

Hidden under the wooden bed and shrunken, I was so scared that I thought about rushing out to save people, but when I really faced death, I couldn't make up my mind.

If I have been hiding under the wooden bed, I may have survived, but once I rush out, even if I shout loudly, this mourning hall is at the back of the village, and no one may be able to hear it, so the end is that I will be strangled to death by my grandmother after the corpse.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "The dull sound of jumping up and down was like a hot hammer slamming down on my heart, and it made my heart ache.

I looked sideways and saw Aunt Chang's purple lips trembling, as if she was desperately trying to speak, but she couldn't say a word.

Aunt Chang looked around with a pair of eyes full of fear and longing, and happened to see me hiding under the bed, she immediately stared at me with a pair of pleading eyes, and tried to close her mouth as if to say to me again: "Help me......"

I couldn't stand her pleading gaze, but the fear in my heart and my innate fear of death kept me motionless under the bed.

"Wang! Woof! ......" At this moment, there was a sudden cry for my life, and I saw a black shadow rushing in from outside the mourning hall, screaming and rushing towards my grandmother who had been deceived by the corpse.

In this moment, I suddenly felt like I was inferior to a dog......
