Chapter 035: The Process of Doing Things
Wu Guo naturally knows that this is a bad habit of funeral, but it has been repeatedly banned in southern Fujian.
Judge Cui also frowned slightly, and said: "I've been working below, and I rarely come out, such a scene today is really rare, you say they are making such a big show and spending so much money, what are they for?" ”
"For the sake of face." Wu Guo turned his head to look at Judge Cui and said: "In the past, I paid attention to the scenery and funeral, but the deceased were all powerful people with heads and faces during their lifetimes, so the things after their deaths were like this, but this custom of afterlife has been handed down, but good things have not been handed down, I don't know about other places, but here in southern Fujian, except for those who really want to do their filial piety, most of them are doing this, not for the sake of the dead, but for the descendants of the deceased, for the sake of these living people to have face." ”
"Comparison mentality?" Judge Cui asked.
"That's right, let's just say how big a pomp and circumstance a certain person from the same village will do after his death, then the others must not be inferior, so they will compete." Wu Guo shook his head and sneered: "But as a Hokkien native, I am very opposed to this, rather than doing such a pomp after the old man dies, it is better to be more filial when he is alive, not to mention waiting for the rich to do his filial piety, if you want to be filial, you don't have to wait for development." ”
"Oh, I see you know a lot." Judge Cui smiled, nodded approvingly, and said, "This is true filial piety." ”
At this time, the whole owner's house suddenly became in a commotion.
The crowd all stood up.
Wu Guo looked at it, opened his mouth and said, "I'll go, it's a big night funeral!" ”
Judge Cui also looked over with wide eyes, and sure enough, he saw the coffin being lifted out of the door.
"I see." Wu Guo suddenly realized: "They must be ready to carry it to be buried secretly, the country is now popularizing cremation, but there are some old people who are feudal and confess that they will be buried after death, and this family must have opened up the relationship, otherwise the village will definitely not care." ”
"These are not our hands, we are the soul of this deceased." Judge Cui walked over first.
Wu Guo hurriedly followed, but when he arrived in front of the tent, Judge Cui stretched out his hand to stop Wu Guo and said, "You see, where the crowd gathers, the yang energy is like fire, and such an environment is not suitable for us to handle the case." ”
An old man and a young man walked not far away, and Wu Guo was also taken aback, because everyone present couldn't see them, but these two people saw them and walked towards them.
"Hey, what are you two doing?" The old man pointed at Wu Guo and Judge Cui.
Judge Cui stretched out his hand and took out the ghost card, and when the two saw it, they were taken aback, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the judge, my God, what is the origin of this deceased today, and it actually alarmed the judge?" ”
"Is it because this family is buried and violates the laws of our underworld?" Another added.
"No, it's not." Judge Cui introduced: "This is the new impermanence, I will take him to familiarize himself with the process first. ”
"It turned out to be an impermanent adult, disrespectful and disrespectful." The two of them clasped their fists at the same time.
"Tell me about the process of doing things." Judge Cui said.
"Okay." One of the old men said: "Both of us are ghosts from this village, there is no reincarnation after death, and we are on an errand in the underworld, responsible for leading the souls of the dead in our village to the underworld, one is that we know the people of the village, and when the deceased sees us, they are unlikely to be afraid or resistant, so they will rest assured to follow us." The other is that we are familiar with the roads in our village, so we are handy, and now basically every village has two ghosts, and some larger villages have three or four, all of which serve the village. ”
Wu Guo opened his mouth, it turned out to be like this.
I didn't expect it to be popularized in the village, and each village has a ghost who is responsible for leading the souls of the people in the village to the underworld, which is really different from the impression.
"Every village has a ghost who is responsible for monitoring, someone dies, we have to deal with it, if it is the end of life, we will directly take him to the prefecture to hand over the errand, but if it is not a natural death, such as suicide, hanging, homicide, or accidental death in a traffic accident, this kind of will be reported to the boss, and the boss will arrange a ghost with stronger ability to assist, because these ghosts will be more fierce, and some are unable to do their work and are unwilling to go with us, so they can only take forced law enforcement." The old man continued.
Wu Guo nodded, it turned out to be such a process.
"And what about the responsibilities of the other three divisions?" Wu Guo turned his head to look at Judge Cui.
"The inspection department is responsible for supervision, in addition to information collection, there is also an important function, that is, to supervise these ghosts, there are many ghosts who will use the power in their hands, bend the law for personal gain, oppress the people, and even seek benefits for their relatives who are still alive, at this time the inspection department will be responsible for catching ghosts." Judge Cui said: "They will be responsible for collecting all kinds of information, this information is diverse, and the information collected will be shared with several other divisions, if this person is great in life and has accumulated virtue, the Reward Division will reward him, you may have heard that some people have been dead for a few days, and suddenly come back to life, this kind of general is to be rewarded for longevity after death." ”
"I see." Wu Guo nodded: "Then if this person is extremely vicious, it is the duty of the Evil Division?" ”
"That's right, as he said just now, those who died unexpectedly, committed suicide, died of illness, and those who came to detain the soul are all ghosts who punish the evil division, they are not only to deal with these evil ghosts, but sometimes they also have to deal with the wicked, like what evil Taoists, head descenders, evil spirits, fierce gods, etc., so the ghosts of the evil division are more dangerous, for this reason, the prefecture has also set up a special task force, which is responsible for high-risk tasks and reduces the casualties of the ghosts." Judge Cui introduced.
"I see." Wu Guo thought for a while and said: "No matter what you do, you need to experience it yourself, and after doing it yourself, it is easy to get familiar with it." ”
"That's right." The old man said: "Like many rich and powerful people, who are obviously dead, but their souls are not allowed to be taken away, they will hire those who have the ability, such as the head descender, the evil Taoist, to guard them, to fight against the ghosts, as long as the ghosts cannot take their souls away, their souls will continue to stay in their bodies." ”
"And like that?" Wu Guo's eyes widened.
"There are too many, and now there are many living dead like this in the yang world." After the old man finished speaking, he also glanced at Judge Cui, for fear that the judge would be angry.
However, Judge Cui was not angry, and helped explain: "This kind of forcibly leaving the soul in the world, in the body of the deceased, although the soul is still there, but the function of the body has been completely lost, the body will slowly decay, and finally become the living dead, people are not ghosts, and in the end they will be evil, either find a new body to take away, or deprive others of their life to continue their lives, these are all illegal, our special task force is doing this, and impermanence is one of the leaders of the special task force." ”
"We?" Wu Guo's eyes widened, Alexander.
"Not only you, but also the subordinates of several other judges, Zhong Kui has two righteous brothers, Wang Fuqu and Liu Hanyan, their status is equivalent to impermanence, and they are the same as you." Judge Choi continued.
"I've heard of these two people, and they seem to be very powerful, so I have a chance to get to know them." Wu Guo took a deep breath.
At this moment, the mobile phone in Wu Guo's pocket shook and rang.
Wu Guo was taken aback and quickly covered his pocket.
Not only that, but the sound of the phone is amplified in the night sky.
And those who mourned looked at the place where the four of them were.
"Faint, go." Judge Cui pulled Wu Guo and said, "You can't bring a mobile phone in the yang world, if you use a mobile phone in the underworld, they won't be able to find out." ”
"How do I know?" Wu Guo was stunned and asked, "Where did the mobile phone in the underworld come from?" ”
"Burn it from the sun."
"......" Wu Guo was completely speechless, did he burn his real phone?
They quickly left the scene, while the two demons hid, waiting for an opportunity to lure the souls of the deceased to the underworld.
