After about a dozen wipes, the stench has not only not diminished, but has become heavier and heavier, Made, what's the matter?

I reached out and dipped a little bit of Lai Hazi and put it in front of my nose to smell it, it almost didn't faint me, it stinked to death, worse than the smell of corpse water.

"Brother Jiu, why are you stunned? Waiting for you to do the ceremony? Seeing that I was stunned, the stammerer pushed me.

"It's fine!" I replied, threw the yellow paper on the ground, and shook my clothes, intending to tinker with them afterwards.

Then I straightened the deceased's clothes, and touched on the deceased's appearance, and then found a small bench and placed it at the deceased's feet.

At this time, he stammered and said, "Brother Jiu, I didn't see you let the deceased sit on a wooden chair before, nor did you put a small bench at the feet of the deceased, but now this is?" ”

I thought about it and said: "The deceased was on the third floor when he was dying, in our industry terms, that is, he did not touch the ground, this wooden chair is equivalent to a bed, and in a sense let the deceased die again, and this small bench has two meanings in it, one is to let the deceased get a little wood gas, and the coffin is symbiotic and harmonious, which is conducive to burial, and the other means that the deceased will go to a higher level in the next life." ”

As I spoke, I untied the red rope from the wooden chair and tied it to the middle finger of the deceased's left hand, and then straightened it with the deceased's finger and pointed west.

"Brother Jiu!" I was about to speak, but I quickly stopped, and I knew that he wanted to ask why, so he said, "I tied the deceased with a red rope because I was afraid that the deceased's body would be robbed by wild ghosts on a wooden chair, and the kerosene lamp under the wooden chair was used to allow the deceased to light from the room to the hall." ”

"Lighting?" Stammered asked.

I nodded and said, "It is rumored that the underworld is dark day and night, and it is natural to need something that needs lighting. ”

After speaking, I stood up, walked to the front of the deceased, bowed to the deceased three times, and bowed three times against the west, while burning yellow paper, I raised my voice and shouted: "The newcomer passed away in the village of walking horses, but He Ying turned into a feather immortal, and the voice of the children in the hall was sad, and the time on the way to the west was urging." ”

After shouting this, I gave the little boss a look and signaled him to cry. He was stunned, as if he didn't react, but fortunately he stammered and pushed him, saying, "You expect the little girl to cry?" ”

As soon as the little boss heard this, he immediately came to his senses, let go of his voice and began to cry, not to mention, this cry is really ugly, just like a ghost crying wolf.

Sometimes I have to say, like Widow Liu in our village, let her come to cry and mourn, the scene is absolutely lively, at least, whether the deceased is her father or not, she cries like a real dead father.

After he had cried for a minute or two, I grabbed a handful of yellow paper and threw it at the door, shouting in a peculiar tone: "Immortals descend to earth!" Ghosts, get out of the way! ”

After shouting this, I told the stammerer to open the oil-paper fan, and he nodded, and opened the oil-paper umbrella to block the position at the door.

I took a few deep breaths, the deceased's house was some distance from the hall, and I couldn't rest on the way, so I planned to go straight to it in one go. If it had been before, he would definitely not have the strength, after all, the weight of the deceased was there. Now, there is a stuttering unicorn arm, let him exert some force in the back, there should be no problem.

Immediately, he untied the red rope on the deceased's fingers, squatted down, put the deceased on his back, slowly stood up, let the stammerer help support him in the back, and went straight to the hall with all his might.

I walked for about seven or eight minutes and came to the front of the hall. The hall houses in this walking horse village are similar to the halls on our side, no, it should be said that the halls in our Hengyang side are almost the same, almost all of them are furnishings, the only difference is that some of the halls are red bricks, and some of the halls are adobe bricks.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the hall, I saw Lao Wang and his eight immortals sitting on the left side smoking and chatting.

When he saw us coming, Lao Wang immediately stood up, snuffed out the cigarette butt, shook the clothes on his body, picked up a mourning stick and a complete tile, put the tile in front of the coffin, and gave me a look, meaning can it be broken?

I nodded, originally planning to wait outside the hall for Lao Wang to finish breaking the trouble and go straight to the burial. However, remembering that the deceased was only 33 years old this year, it is necessary to shout. Immediately, he gave them a look, stretched his voice, and shouted: "Today, there are nobles in the treasure hall, and I hope that the Shen family will open the immortal gate." ”

As the Eight Immortals, when doing things, many times you can't speak, what you need is a tacit understanding. As soon as the high-ranking guys saw my eyes, they immediately waved their hands at the people behind them, and shouted in unison: "Today, there are nobles in the treasure hall, and I hope that the Shen family will open the immortal gate." ”

As soon as the words fell, Lao Wang immediately raised the mourning stick in his hand and poked it at the tile, and the tile shattered in response.

Immediately afterwards, Lao Wang looked stunned and shouted: "Once the tiles are broken, Baitai will be safe, the descendants will be prosperous, and the wealth will be for all generations." ”

As soon as I heard this, I glanced at Lao Wang strangely, outsiders may not understand the meaning of this, as an insider still understands, Lao Wang's last sentence 'Wealth and Prosperity' is actually to ask for red envelopes, wealth represents money, and 'generation' is the same as the pocket, so what he means by this is that the master, hurry up and put money into your pocket.

The little boss didn't seem to understand what he meant, so he was stunned, so he asked why he didn't carry the corpse in, I couldn't speak, so I made a money gesture at him, and stretched out his finger and pointed at Lao Wang.

He came to his senses, smiled bitterly, and muttered: "If you want a red envelope, you have to play some dumb riddle!" As he spoke, he took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Lao Wang's pocket, and said to Lao Wang, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

Lao Wang nodded with satisfaction, picked up a handful of yellow paper, lit it, and quickly circled around the coffin. His actions, I understand, the deceased is 33 years old, and he can't be put into the coffin directly like the elderly, but needs to use yellow paper to burn it in the air, which has a meaning, one is to use yellow paper to burn off the turbidity in the coffin, so that the deceased can lie more comfortably, and the other is that the yellow paper is the money to buy the road, so that the nearby lonely souls and wild ghosts do not want to hit the idea of this coffin.

It is worth mentioning that when I entered the hall, I turned three times on the threshold, and as for why I turned three times, I don't know, I know that the deceased who is under the age of 60 needs to turn three times before entering the funeral.

After entering the hall, I asked the stammerer to put away the oiled paper fan and let him set off a firecracker.

In an instant, the sound of 'crackling' sounded, which was the official start of the funeral. When the sound stopped, I carried the deceased on my back and bowed three times to the front of the hall and said some kind things.

After that, I started to put the coffin in the coffin, because the deceased was under 60 years old, so I was very particular. First of all, when the burial is made, the eldest son must hold the head of the deceased, and then the person in the house, (the so-called person in the house refers to the common ancestor, not more than five generations.) Carry the limbs of the deceased, and then the bearer helps to put the body in.
