Chapter 1: The Patient in the Coffin

Next Chapter

doctors, healers; Ghost doctor, healer ghost.

I'm a doctor, to be exact, a ghost doctor. But before I was eighteen years old, I was just an ordinary nobody, and my family had been practicing medicine for generations, and I thought that my father was just a barefoot doctor with great medical skills, benevolence, and compassion......

In the past, my father never took me to the doctor's practice, but that day, he called me for the first time. That day, his god ** was a little weird, I was very curious, and asked my father what kind of patient we were going to treat this time, my father said it was a girl, who had been lying in bed for half a year, had been unconscious, and had asked a lot of doctors to treat him.

Because of the rain these days, I passed several potholes on the way, and the water in them was very deep, and when the motorcycle drove by, the water splashed all over my father and me.

Not long after, we entered a ** village. The village is not large, but it is also under a mountainside, with terraced fields and herds of cattle and sheep. There are a few new houses that are still villas and are very beautifully built.

My father got out of front of a brick house that seemed to have been built for some reason, not to mention tiled or cement.

As we walked towards the house, we realized that something was wrong. There were several people standing in front of the door, all looking at us, their eyes wide open, as if they had seen something incredible.

Is it because we are covered in muddy water? I didn't think much about it, this was the first time I had come to practice medicine with my father, and I obediently followed my father and didn't dare to talk much.

An old man about seventy years old with gray hair greeted him, stepped forward and held his father's hand tightly and said, "It's Dr. Yang, right?" It's been a hard work. He looked at me and asked, "Dr. Yang, who is this?" ”

"It's a dog." The father laughed and said: "People are small and ignorant, and they don't know how to be polite, please don't be surprised." ”

I was surprised, what happened to my father? In this solemn environment, it has become a crepe, and generally speaking, there is no such attention in the countryside.

The old man smiled and said, "No, no." Then he looked me up and down with a pair of regular eyes, and nodded slightly.

I was uncomfortable, I looked left and right, and this look was even more surprised, not only the old man was looking at me, but the people at the door were staring at me, solemn.

"Please come in." The old man made a gesture of invitation, and his father did not refuse, and walked towards the house. I hurried to follow.

We entered the hall directly, and my father's footsteps had just stepped in, and he was stunned and wanted to take it back, but one foot had already gone in, so why was he embarrassed to come out again? At this time, it is not to advance, nor is it to retreat. When I saw that my father was not leaving, I did not know what was going on, so I spared my father and tried to walk in from him, but when I saw the situation in the house, I was dumbfounded.

The room was full of people, all staring at us with wide eyes. And these are not the point, the weird thing is that there is a big black coffin in the hall ****!

This coffin is very special, it is twice the size of an ordinary coffin.

This...... Is this a dead man? I couldn't help but mutter.

"It's exactly twelve o'clock!" Suddenly, a man shouted.

The people in the house took out their mobile phones or watches to look at the time, and when they saw it, they all changed greatly.

"It's twelve!" "What a god!" "And it's muddy water!" ……

My father and I were confused, and we were startled, when the old man came up and said respectfully, "Pleaseβ€”"

The father also saw the difference, and asked the old man in great confusion: "Old man, what about this-the patient?" ”

The old man stretched out his hand and pointed to the coffin opposite, and said word by word, "In there." ”

"Huh?" We were all taken aback.

"Dead?" Father's face suddenly became very ugly, I was afraid that the master would blame us for being late.

Unexpectedly, the old man said, "I'm not dead." ”

I couldn't help but ask, "Why did you put her in a coffin if she wasn't dead?" ”

But the old man asked me, "Son, how old are you?" ”

My father and I looked at each other and replied, "Eighteen years old." ”

The old man nodded and muttered in a low voice, "The age is right, it seems that the goddess is right." Then he took me by the hand and said, "Come, child, come and see." ”

I was inexplicably pulled by the old man to the coffin, I looked into the coffin, there was a girl lying inside, ten **** years old, her eyes were slightly closed, very delicate, her face was slightly pale, similar to Lin Daiyu who had been ill for a long time, and there was a trace of desolate beauty.

Suddenly, the ** opened her eyes and glanced at me, and winked at me, I was dumbfounded, but, in a blink of an eye, she closed her eyes again, and returned to her previous sleeping appearance.

Am I looking at it wrong? I rubbed my eyes and stared at the ** for a few more seconds, and found that she had her eyes closed all the time, and she didn't seem to be breathing.

The old man looked at me and asked, "Child, do you see it?" ”

"Huh?" I was taken aback.

The old man asked, "Will you marry her?" ”

"Marry her?" I was even more surprised, what kind of joke did this old man make, let alone that she was a sleeping person, even if she woke up suddenly, the two were not familiar with each other when they first met, and they didn't understand each other, how could they get married? Could it be that this old man is old and wants to hold a grandson, and he is in a hurry to marry this grandson?

"Yes, marry her, you don't want to?" The old man stared at me closely.

"This ......" I looked at my father, who also started to walk over at this time, looked at the ** in the coffin, and asked suspiciously: "Old man, she is not dead, why do you put her in the coffin?" And why did Inuko marry her? ”

"Alas!" The old man sighed heavily, and then he told us what had happened.

Half a year ago, Wu Lele suddenly fainted when he came back from school. At that time, he was immediately sent to the hospital, but the doctor didn't check out anything, and he couldn't say that he was ugly, but what was certain was that Wu Lele was ** not **sick, Wu Lele's family didn't understand, since he was not **sick, why was he unconscious?

Later, I went to several major hospitals, but all of them were fruitless.

For Wu Lele's illness, Wu Lele's parents were exhausted, and finally they were in the hospital, and the house being built at home stopped.

A relative said that Wu Lele was most likely evil, and there was a goddess in Li Village, who was very powerful. Old Man Wu was helpless, and went to the goddess with the last glimmer of hope.

The goddess really got it, as soon as the old man Wu arrived at her house, she told the old man Wu that Wu Lele was destined to have this catastrophe, this was a debt she owed in her previous life, and if she wanted to wake up, she had to do a secret marriage for her.

Ghost marriage, also known as matching bones, ** marriage, ghost marriage, and spirit marriage, is a folk custom. After the engagement, the male ** died, or the child ** died before the engagement, and the parents were in a state of pain and longing, and if they wanted to complete the marriage for them, it was a secret marriage. There are two types of secret marriages: "dead and dead" and "dead and alive". In addition, in the past, it was believed that having a solitary grave in the ancestral grave would affect the prosperity of the offspring and be unlucky, so it was necessary to hold a ghost marriage for the deceased.

According to the goddess, after three days, a double coffin must be prepared, the one that can hold two people. On this ugly day, Wu Lele was put in the coffin, and then waited for another man who was married to her to appear.

And this man will appear at noon on this day, that is, at twelve o'clock in the morning. He must be the same age as Wu Lele, and he will appear all covered in muddy water. After he appeared, with his consent, he bathed ****, replaced him with a groom**, slept in a coffin with Wu Lele, covered the coffin lid, held a wedding for them according to the general wedding ceremony, and sent them to the flat land behind the Wu family village at the right time, which was facing the moonlight, which was an excellent feng shui treasure.

When Old Man Wu told his family and the people in the village about this, everyone was very surprised and half skeptical. Let's not talk about this weird secret marriage, just the man who appeared at twelve o'clock is incredible, is there really such a coincidence in this world?

So, the curious villagers came to Old Man Wu's house early in the morning, first, to hold a secret marriage for Wu Lele, and secondly, to see if this legendary mysterious man could appear.

As a result, he really appeared!

Not only at twelve o'clock, but also muddy water!

And that mysterious man is me.
