After waiting in the mourning hall for about 20 minutes, Ah Da, Guo Fatzi and the stammering three walked in, and I had some doubts in my heart, so I asked how they came together.

Guo Fatzi walked up to me, put one hand on my shoulder, and said, "On the way, I met Big Brother buying dried loquats, so we came back together." ”

I nodded and asked him again, "How is Huqin and Yu Qian doing?" ”

He looked embarrassed, glanced at the coffin, and said: "I did a big examination in the hospital, and the doctor said that there was no problem with the body, and it was not easy to take medicine, so I could only hang the oxygen cylinders for their mother and daughter first, and stay in the hospital for observation, and I don't know what happened next." ”

Hearing him say this, I smiled bitterly, it's strange that the hospital can check out the problem, some things are so strange, if you let a capable Taoist priest come to see, maybe you can see something.

Then, after a few words, we went to the coffin and glanced at the deceased, who looked more and more like a living person, and her complexion was more ruddy than before, and I pierced the place, and a strange liquid flowed out, dark green, with a faint fragrance.

"Brother Jiu, what the hell is going on? I've carried a lot of coffins with you, and I've never encountered this situation. Guo Fatzi asked in a trembling voice on the side.

"The yang energy is too heavy, the yin energy of the deceased is washed away, on the surface, the deceased's face is ruddy, but in fact he is suffering in the underworld, the person who made this coffin really has no conscience, and sooner or later he will be split by the thunder." I explained to Guo Fatzi that the four seasons fruit was placed in the east, south, west, and north of the coffin.

As the Four Seasons Fruit was put into the coffin, the deceased's complexion changed suddenly, and Guo Fatzi trembled with fright, grabbed my arm, pointed at the deceased, and said, "These four things are very common, how could they become like this." As he said this, his teeth chattered.

I looked at the place where he pointed his finger, not to mention Guo Fatzi, even I was startled. I saw that the face of the deceased changed like a living person, showing four expressions of joy, anger and sorrow, and the most terrifying thing was that the deceased was lying in the coffin, the corners of his mouth moved, and he actually showed a smile.

"Brother Jiu, you are talking, how can this be!" Guo Fatzi shook my arm.

"This kind of thing is not easy to explain, it should be that the yang energy is saturated, so that the deceased's body organs have some abnormalities, a bit like the zombies in the movie." Let me explain.

"Will it jump out?" Guo Fatzi lost his voice.

I glared at him and said angrily, "You've watched too many movies, haven't you?" If there were zombies, would you still be alive until now? Using this kind of yang coffin to hold a corpse, at most, there is a slight change in facial expression, let alone standing up, it is impossible to even move a finger. The change in facial expression is like an empty plastic bag, if you pour water into it, the shape of the plastic bag will change, and the change in the facial expression of the deceased is the same thing. ”

"No, if you really say that, how can the deceased just show an expression of joy and sorrow?" Stammering interjected.

"Coincidence! There are some things that don't have to be explained, let's be the eight immortals, we can only guess the meaning of the deceased, which can be regarded as a kind of respect! I replied lightly.

There are so many strange things in this world that not everything has an explanation, just like a person who has been dead for four days, her facial expression changes like a living person. In the words of our Eight Immortals, it is a broken yang coffin. In metaphysics, this situation is a prelude to the transformation of the dead, and the deceased will become a zombie, and to explain it with scientific knowledge is to list a lot of data, then list various possibilities, demonstrate them, and finally come to a result, nerve reflex.

Hearing me say this, Guo Fatzi didn't ask any more questions with the stammer, but Ah Da came over and asked me: "Chen Baxian, after the coffin is broken, is the funeral done according to the normal ceremony, or will the funeral stop and wait for tomorrow to go up the mountain?" ”

I thought for a moment and said, "Let's break the coffin first!" This Four Seasons Fruit is just the first step, there are still some things that have not been done in the follow-up, I just hope that there will be no problems in the Broken Yang Coffin, and the rest of the things, let's see the time! It must be carried up the mountain and buried before six o'clock tomorrow morning, and it will change later. ”

"Does it have an impact on my aunt's next life?" Ah Da gave each of us a cigarette.

"As long as the yang coffin is broken, it shouldn't have any effect!" I said something uncertain.

He said 'um' and knelt in front of the coffin to burn yellow paper, and I didn't bother him, I kept staring at the changes inside the coffin.

After waiting for about three minutes, I came to find a wooden stick, circled around the coffin a few times, held the wooden stick and smashed it down against the coffin, and scolded in my mouth: "Let you put on gold, let you act as the emperor's life, don't you know how big your trousers are and how big your shoes are, and the pheasant learns from the bird to fly, and goes up to the branch to kill people." ”

This trick is called beating the coffin, in ancient times, gold represented the royal family, there is such a saying that the imperial spirit, the coffin is to knock off the imperial gas on the coffin, so that the imperial gas does not hurt the deceased. After seven or eight blows, the deceased's expression was fixed on a smile.

I exhaled in my heart, and it seemed to have an effect, at least the dead laughed. Follow the father's steps, and at this point you should tie the dragon frame. However, considering that the deceased died unjustly, if he ties the dragon rope and carries it out now, there will definitely be some trouble, which will not be good for the deceased in the next life.

So, I pushed the steps of tying the dragon rope back a bit, and remembered that after my father tied the dragon rope, he made nine holes in the rice cooker, which should imply that I made nine holes in the coffin.

If I am not mistaken, the nine holes represent two meanings, one is a symbol of auspiciousness, and nine represents the honor of the ninety-five, hoping that the deceased will have a good birth in the next life; Another meaning should be to use these nine small holes to vent the yang energy in the coffin.

To be honest, things like yang, anger, yin, turbidity, and the like are not visible to the naked eye, and we don't even know if these things really exist. However, something must be done in a unique way, otherwise, something strange will happen.

Even now, I still haven't figured out what my ancestors mean, so I can only do it according to the customs passed down from my ancestors.

After making up my mind, I asked Guo Fatzi to borrow a stove in the town, and found a one-meter-long, thumb-thick steel bar, and sharpened one end of the steel bar with a grinder. Then the tip of the steel bar was placed on the stove and burned red, intending to burn nine holes in the coffin.

When Guo Fatzi saw me burning steel bars, he glanced at me with disdain and said, "Brother Jiu, when I see you, I think of a story." ”

"What's the story?" I asked, confused.

"The fool moves mountains." His tone was a little disdainful, and said: "You have always been very smart in my heart, but Mao used such a stupid method in this matter, using a percussion drill to open up to the coffin a few times, it took less than three minutes, and nine holes came out, you burned red steel bars to poke holes, it is conservatively estimated that it will take 8 hours, isn't this a fool to move mountains?" ”
