At that moment, I looked in the direction of the tomb, and I could vaguely see something surging inside the tomb.

I was stunned for a moment, and shouted to the mourning hall: "Tiannan, find a flashlight and torches." ”

After about a minute, Chen Tiannan walked over with a flashlight in one hand and a torch in the other, "Brother Jiu, what's wrong?" Afraid of the dark? ”

I glared at him angrily, didn't speak, took the flashlight, lifted the plastic film on the tomb, I was stunned, goosebumps came out all over my body, and I involuntarily took two steps back.

That Chen Tiannan may have noticed that my face was wrong, and asked, Brother Jiu, what's wrong, so he looked in that direction, his reaction was very straightforward, and he only said, one sentence, "Mom, did we dig a snake's nest?" ”

I saw that the tomb was densely covered with cobras the size of small thumbs, and the lower layers of the entire tomb were full, and as soon as the cobras saw the flashlight, they pounced in our direction, but fortunately, the tomb was dug a little deep, jumped to the middle of the air, and fell down.

"Nine... Brother Jiu, what's going on? Didn't the tomb be cleaned up before, why did so many snakes suddenly appear? Chen Tiannan's voice was a little knotted, and a lot of fine sweat appeared on his forehead.

I glanced at the tomb, and to be honest, I didn't know what was going on, but it felt as if the cobras had come out of nowhere, and I didn't have any idea to prove the cobras in front of me.

Suddenly, I suddenly remembered something that Qing Xuanzi said, he said that Miss Su's body had some special reasons, and she might die without a place to be buried.

At that moment, I said to Chen Tiannan: "Tiannan, you look at the tomb, I'll go to the mourning hall to see Mengke, this... It may have something to do with her corpse. ”

As soon as he heard this, his face turned white, and he said in a trembling voice: "Nine... Brother Jiu, don't play with me, how dare I guard the tomb! ”

I glared at him, "The most basic requirement to be an Eight Immortals is to be bold, how can you be like a man?" ”

He was stunned for a moment and didn't speak, but his face was very ugly, and he didn't speak for seven or eight seconds, I don't know if he figured out something, or what's going on, so he said a word, okay.

Seeing this, I breathed a sigh of relief and let him stay here, I had two reasons, one was to exercise his courage, and the other was that I vaguely felt that the appearance of water in the first tomb and the appearance of snakes in the second tomb may really be related to what Qing Xuanzi said about death and no place to be buried, and I must check Mengke's body to judge the cause of the matter.

So, I nodded to him, and walked straight into the mourning hall, that Lang Gao and Huang Ban Master were arranging for someone to carry out the crying spirit ceremony, and when they saw me come in, they nodded symbolically and did not speak.

I bent down to show my etiquette to the Huang class master, walked directly to the coffin, and first probed Wang Chuyao's breathing, which was normal. I didn't think much about it, so I reached out and moved Wang Chuyao's head to the left side of the coffin, revealing Su Mengke's entire face.

I was stunned, this was no longer like a face, a bit like a flattened tomato, a pair of eyeballs stuck to the eyelids, the whole nose had completely collapsed, and the nostrils and the corners of the mouth hung a touch of red liquid, which had a strong rancid smell, which made people smell and couldn't help but gause.

"It stinks!" Lang Gao, who was not far away, frowned and walked towards me.

Immediately afterwards, the yellow squad leader also walked over with a frown. As for the troupe, perhaps because of their profession, they did not come, but laid a mat in front of the coffin, and put some futons on it, and two men and a woman knelt down and began to cry loudly, crying and saying some words of mourning for the dead.

Compared to the howling in front of the coffin, none of the three of us spoke a word, a pair of eyes staring at the coffin, with a solemn expression.

It was Lang Gao who was the first to speak, and he asked me in a deep voice, "Chen Jiu, the coffin didn't stink so much before, why did it become like this all of a sudden, and Miss Su's face, how could it be completely stuffed." ”

I thought for a moment and explained: "Mengke's body is not filled with flesh and blood, but some swallow's ashes and special liquids, and now she is pressed by Chu Yao like this, her face has become like this, which makes sense, what makes me wonder is how these red liquids can suddenly become so stinky." ”

"Yes, in less than a day, the rancid smell is ten times stronger than before, no, it may be dozens of times." Na Lang Gao said as he covered his nose with his hand.

I nodded, this is exactly what I couldn't figure out, and reached out to touch Mengke's face, the feeling of my hand was very sticky, and there was a vague feeling of sticking to my fingers.

At this moment, there was no Huang Ban Master to speak, and his words made my whole person stunned, and I felt that the whole world was about to collapse.

He said, "There is no place to die." ”

I was stunned for a long time, and then I asked him why.

With a solemn look on his face, he explained: "This situation of the deceased should be a symbol of death without a place to be buried, if you don't believe it, you can go to the new tomb to have a look, there must be something in it." ”

After listening to his words, I looked at him incredulously, I didn't say anything when I found a cobra in the tomb before, it stands to reason that he should not know about it, and now listening to his tone, he seems to be very sure that there is something in the tomb.

At the moment, I didn't hide it from him, so I told Master Huang about the first tomb and the second tomb.

After hearing this, he slowly spoke: "If you guess correctly, there will be rats when you dig a third grave." ”

As soon as I heard this, I became anxious, so I said, "If that's the case, what about Mengke's tomb?" ”

He was silent for a moment, and then said, "Dig the third grave first to see what happens." ”

At the moment, I didn't ask the reason, so I called Shanglang Gao, and called more than a dozen middle-aged men, went to the second tomb, first burned some yellow paper and threw it into the tomb, and then said good things for about ten minutes, roughly, because of special reasons to dig this tomb, and because of some factors, I had no choice but to fill in this tomb.

Just as I was about to fill in this tomb, Na Lang Gao said, "Chen Jiu, don't you check where these cobras came from?" ”

I thought about it for a moment, and said uncertainly: "I guess I dug a snake's nest!" ”

Frankly speaking, I originally wanted to check where those cobras came from, but when I thought that I would be buried tomorrow evening, and now Mengke's tomb had not yet landed, I suppressed the doubts in my heart and directly led Chen Tiannan, Lang Gao and the dozen middle-aged men to fill the tomb.

It took about half an hour for the group of us to fill the tomb and prepare to find another one. Since Huang Lou said that rats will appear in the third tomb, and rats generally live in dark places, the tomb I chose this time is drier and the soil is more compact, and it is another ritual, and then I sprinkle the outline of a tomb with lime on it, and I am ready to break the ground and dig the third tomb.
