Lang Gao followed Qing Xuanzi in front, Lang held a gong in his hand, struck three times, the eight immortals slowly lifted the empty coffin, and went straight to the grave of grandpa, the road was very quiet, even the insects and birds were very rare, and the silence was a little scary.

After coming to the grave, when the coffin landed, my father and I knelt on the ground to greet them, and after they landed, I gave another red envelope to each of the eight immortals, followed by a burst of firecrackers.

"Chen Baxian, you will follow me into the tomb to pick up the dragon body." Qing Xuanzi looked at me and said, after finishing speaking, he turned to look at his father and said, "You can do the work of warming the bed for the deceased!" ”

I knew something about my father, so I asked him, "What is a bed warmer?" ”

He said: "The deceased has been dead for many years, the bones should be relatively cold, and can not be re-entered into the cold coffin, it will chill the dragon body of the deceased, this coffin needs to be warmed by future generations, otherwise it will be regarded as unfilial piety, and if it is not done well, the deceased will be dissatisfied." ”

After hearing this, the father nodded and asked him how to do it.

He said: "You hold seven pieces of yellow paper in your hand, four in your left hand and three in your right hand, lie down in the coffin, and when the bones are completely removed, then you can crawl out of the coffin and let the bones of the deceased enter the coffin." ”

As soon as he heard this, his father was really startled, stunned for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll lie in it." ”

With that, we took a lot of effort to open the coffin lid, and my father lay down in it with yellow paper in both hands, and we couldn't cover the coffin lid, so we covered the coffin with a black cloth.

"Father, if you are afraid, I can take your place!" I watched my father enter the coffin and hesitated for a moment, as if he was a little afraid.

"Jiu Yanzi, don't worry, go with Daoist Qingxuanzi to pick up your grandfather's bones, it's not a big problem for me to lie here." Father said.

I nodded, beckoned Lao Wang and looked at my father, and stood behind Qing Xuanzi, waiting for his next move.

His eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, hesitated for a moment, and said, "There are a few Eight Immortals' respectable faces, and I am afraid that I will make a mistake when I see the corpse bones." ”

I slapped my palm on my thigh, and Lao Xiucai asked me to be particularly considerate in the choice of the Eight Immortals in advance, and I also thought of a note, drawing something on their faces, so that their faces looked a little fierce, but when they ate, they forgot about it.

Thinking of this, I said my attention to Qing Xuanzi, he thought for a while, and said: "That little fat man, with a rich and noble face, he has a blessed body and no problem, Lao Wang is a little special, and the fierce energy on his body is no problem, and the remaining eight immortals, if you follow your attention, you should be able to avoid making a mistake." ”

Because of the urgency of time, I didn't ask any more questions, so I ran towards home, intending to take a brush and ink to draw something on the faces of the Eight Immortals.

As soon as I got home, I took those things in my room, and I didn't know if it was too loud or what was going on, so I woke my mother up, and she shouted in the room, "Nine boys, are you at home?" ”

I said 'um', and my mother ran over with my things, and when I entered the room, Joyce sat at the head of the bed and listened to the Walkman for eternity, and my mother leaned on the head of the bed, and when she saw me come in, they both looked at me, and my mother said, "Nine Sons, your grandfather treated me well when he was alive, and he moved the grave, I have to go and see, and you carry me to the grave." ”

I thought my mother was inconvenient and tried to persuade her, but her tone was not like a negotiation, but an order, and I dismissed the idea and asked Joyce to help her behind my back.

My mother's body is a little light, about 80 pounds, before I got sick, my mother's weight was 110 pounds, and now it has become like this, as a child, I feel a little bitter. Some people say that lovesickness can torment people the most, but now I feel that the most tormenting person is watching my relatives lose weight day by day, but I can't do anything about it.

After carrying the mother to the grave, the people present were stunned and didn't say anything, but found a clean stone two meters away from the grave, let the mother sit down, and then found something and put it behind the mother and let her lean on it.

As soon as my mother was arranged, Qing Xuanzi beckoned to me, I walked over, and he asked me: "Chen Baxian, who are you the little girl next to your mother, I don't think she is an ordinary woman!" ”

"Huh? You said Joyce, she is a Gu master, she is my friend, she has nowhere to go, she lives in my house for the time being, and helps take care of my mother. I explained, and then I thought about it, and Joyce was sitting next to him at lunchtime, why didn't he ask? I asked the doubts in my mind.

He nodded and said, "When I was eating, I patronized and talked to my teacher, but I didn't notice the side. ”

After speaking, he slapped me in the face for a while, then looked at Joyce's face for a long time, looked at me strangely, and said: "Chen Baxian, you and that girl have husband and wife, she may be a wife in the future, but her identity is a Gu master, and the Gu master's affairs are also a little heard, your future road is not very easy, if possible, Xiaodao advises you to stay away from her, otherwise you will encounter something unfavorable to you, of course, Xiaodao is only in terms of appearance, for reference only." ”

I smiled helplessly, not wanting to delve into this issue, for now, I avoided that Joyce, how could I marry her in the future? This is obviously a big joke.

However, Qing Xuanzi said this, and Granny Qiao also said something similar, I still have some doubts in my heart, what I wonder is not that they say that Joyce may be my wife, but Granny Qiao, she can see these things without looking at me at all.

That Qing Xuanzi looked at me and Joyce for a long time before she said such a thing, could it be that Granny Qiao's physiognomy has really reached the point of perfection, and she only needs to glance at it to see the future of people? That's terrifying, isn't it? I couldn't figure this out.

When I was stunned, Qing Xuanzi came over, he patted me on the shoulder, and said, "Physiognomy is such a thing, don't put it too much on your body, let's move the grave first!" ”

I said 'um' and asked Lao Wang to clean up some of the dirt around the coffin with a hoe, and they said yes, but they didn't dare to lift the black cloth on the grave, so they could only put the hoe in it and pull out the dirt inside by feeling.

There is also a reason for not lifting the black cloth, when they got up the grave before, they saw that the coffin lid had rotted and did not look good, in case they lifted the black cloth to clean up the soil, the coffin lid suddenly collapsed, so that the light shined on the bones of the corpse and burned the deceased, it was easy to offend the yin people, and this drying of the bones of the corpse was extremely damaging to the yin virtue, and the coffins of the general age, when cleaning the soil, the eight immortals did not dare to lift the black cloth to clean up the soil.
