28.Chapter 28 See the Scavenger Again

Two fists are hard to beat four hands, the hero can't stand the wolves, I hold my head in my hands and curl up my body, let their fists and feet hit me, it's not that I don't want to resist, but resist, it will only provoke more fists.

"Made, you don't study well at a young age, come to grab business with us, next time this kind of thing happens, Lao Tzu will beat you so that you can't take care of yourself!" The Taoist priest kicked me in the chest, and his tone was particularly contemptuous, "Get out!" Don't be here to point fingers, what to do about the funeral, Lao Tzu knows more than you, the coffin bearer. ”

I got up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth, and saw that many bubbles on my body had been punctured by them, and the rancid smell was extremely strong, coupled with the smell emanating from Li Hazi's body, the two rancid smells intersected, filling the whole hall with this rancid smell, and many people had begun to vomit and ran towards the outside of the hall.

At this moment, a strange thing happened, the leading Taoist priest had just stepped out of the threshold of the hall with one foot, and he couldn't lift the other foot, and the rest of the Taoist priests were also fixed there as if they had been immobilized by someone.

Immediately afterwards, those Taoist priests knelt down with weak legs, and looked at the sky with blank eyes.

As soon as I saw this, I immediately turned around and walked to the coffin, knelt down, lit three pillars of incense and some yellow paper, kowtowed three respectfully, and said, "I don't mean to offend you, I just want to find out some reasons, I hope you don't be surprised!" ”

Strange to say, the original hall was filled with a strong rancid smell, and as soon as the words fell, the rancid smell was obviously much thinner, and what was even more strange was that the noise in the coffin actually became louder.

I stood up, made three more strokes towards the coffin, picked up the bamboo stick and came to the end of the coffin, and used a bamboo cane to cover the deceased's body, and pulled it out of the coffin, and saw that the shroud on the deceased was gone, the skin of the whole body had long been rotten, and the limbs were crawling with white velvet particles, a bit like eggs, and the deceased's stomach seemed to have been cut by some sharp weapon, and the bloody intestines were pulled out.

The sound of 'smack, smack' became stronger and stronger, and I wanted to use my hands to remove the deceased, but I couldn't do anything at all, so I had to pry the deceased's body up with a bamboo cane.

As soon as I pried open a little gap, thumb-sized scavengers jumped out from under the dead people, and the scavengers still had a little blood on the corners of their mouths, apparently they were just devouring the corpses.

"Where's the scavenger?" I sighed secretly, raised the bamboo cane in my hand and hit it, and this stick went down, and more scavengers jumped out of the coffin, and a rough estimate must have been hundreds.

The scavengers were bouncing inside the coffin, and they just couldn't jump out, but what terrified me even more was that the dead were gnawed clean by the scavengers at a speed visible to the naked eye, and there was only a stack of bones left.

Soon, there was only half of the blood left in the coffin, and those scavengers were swimming around in the coffin, so uncomfortable, but this scene made me watch it so chilling and trembling, and I felt that my brain was confused.

After being stunned for a long time, I let out the loudest cry ever, "Someone! Li Hazi's body was eaten! ”

When people encounter extreme fear, there are only two things that can bring a sense of security, one is light, and the other is hysterical screaming, otherwise it is easy to go crazy, after this voice shouted, I can barely calm down, but the trembling legs betray the fear in my heart.

When a lot of people came in outside, the scavengers had already started to eat the coffin, and they asked me what was going on, and I shook my hands and pointed to the coffin and said, "The body has been eaten!" ”

They glanced at the coffin and threw up, and Li Hazi's daughter-in-law cried and asked me, "What now?" ”

"Burned! These fish eat people! I took a few deep breaths and said slowly, "Find some dry firewood, and burn it in the hall along with the coffin, and I believe that Li Hazi's spirit in heaven wants us to do the same." ”

When they heard me say this, they brought several bundles of dry firewood to surround the coffin and set it on fire, but because of the excessive blood in the coffin, there was no enough dry firewood. Later, Li Hazi's daughter-in-law borrowed all the dry firewood that the whole village had in stock, and burned the coffin clean.

The fire burned for eight hours, and after the fire was extinguished, the Taoist priests who were kneeling at the door came back to their senses, looking at the scene in front of them, they didn't say anything, they just looked at me resentfully, and said: "The green mountains do not change the green water for a long time, and the funeral will be higher and lower in the future." ”

This beam is knotted, and I have no choice but to let them leave, just as if I was beaten by a ghost today, but Guo Fatzi looked at me with a blue nose and swollen face, and I wanted to beat it back, but I pulled it back.

Subsequently, I called Lang Gao and asked him to bring an urn to Li Village early tomorrow morning to pack the ashes for his uncle, and he asked me why, and I told him the general thing.

He asked me where the scavengers came from in the coffin, how they could survive without water, I thought about it for a long time, and said: "This kind of scavengers have very strong vitality and fecundity, as long as there is a little corpse water, they can survive, and then lay eggs, generation after generation, they can give birth to many children and grandchildren in a few days, as for how the scavengers get into the coffin, I haven't figured it out yet!" ”

After hearing this, he was silent for a long time, and finally said, "I'll bring someone to investigate tomorrow!" ”

That night, I did not go back to Aozi Village, but took Guo Fatzi to rest at Li Jianmin's house for a night, and early the next morning, Li Jianmin pushed open the door, laughed and said: "Chen Baxian, I dreamed of my father again last night." ”

I got up from the bed, pinched Guo Fatzi to get him up, and asked Li Jianmin, "What did you dream of?" ”

"My father asked me to thank you for him, he is doing well in the underworld, there are no more those small fish around him, I just feel a little stuffy in my chest, and there are some shortcomings, I hope you can help solve it, so that he can be reincarnated." Li Jianmin said excitedly.

Hearing this, I rubbed my temples, sorted out the matter, and burned those scavengers, Li Jianmin dreamed that his father was doing well in the underworld, that is to say, his father's injustice was very likely to come from those scavengers.

It's right to think about it, who doesn't hate something that gnaws on their own corpse? And that time I let those things go, and it's no wonder that the dead don't hate me. Now that I have burned some scavengers to prove that I did not intend to let those things go, the hatred of the deceased for me is gone, not to avenge him, but to have a heart.

As for those fake immortals, it may be that the noisy scene in the hall made the deceased hate together, after all, their physiognomy and the deceased are more likely to annoy the deceased, so the bubbles on their bodies will be more serious than mine, so that Li Hazi died.

And the deceased said that he couldn't be reincarnated because of his uncomfortable heart, maybe he meant the murderer who released the scavenger!

But who put the scavenger in the coffin? Could it be that Li Jianmin's father and Li Hazi have common enemies?
