Chapter 171: Picking Up Bones

The old patriarch threw the teacup to the ground, and then looked carefully, it was none other than Liu Laojiu, so he said loudly: "Lao Jiu, you are dressed like a ghost, you want to scare me to death?" ”

Lao Jiu stepped forward and said, "Patriarch, patriarch, don't be afraid. ”

The old patriarch looked at Lao Jiu, as if he smelled the stench on Lao Jiu's body, and said: "Lao Jiu, you hurry up and stay away from me, your body is too bad, I am going to vomit it." Liu Laojiu hurriedly retreated, and the old patriarch continued: "I said Lao Jiu, how did you get this?" Look at you, are you in the pig's nest and sleeping with the old sow? ”

Lao Jiu hurriedly said: "Old patriarch, I got it here at the ancestral grave, and the ancestral grave of the official in our family was dug up." ”

When the old patriarch heard this, he immediately stood up from the ground and said, "What? Ancestral graves dug up? You unscrupulous descendant, in order to drink, even dig our family's ancestral grave, are you still human? ”

As he spoke, he got up from the Taishi chair, and was about to beat him with a cane, which frightened Liu Laojiu and quickly hid, when I saw this, I hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Old man, you calm down and listen to me." ”

The old man looked at me and said, "Who are you?" And you two, how did you come to my house? ”

Liu Laojiu said: "The three old patriarchs are not simple, this is Yang Daring of the Three Treasures, and those two are his junior disciples. ”

When the old man heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Oh, offended, offended, it turned out to be three small road leaders." ”

I also returned the salute to the old patriarch, and then told the story again, but I didn't expect the old patriarch to kneel down all of a sudden, and said to the north: "The ancestor has appeared, although the bones are removed from the coffin, they can still bless the descendants, and the descendants will gather the clansmen to rebury your old man." ”

After the old patriarch finished speaking, he stood up and said, "Liu Laojiu, you hurry up and call the clansmen to the Liu family ancestral hall, and say that I have something important." ”

After Liu Laojiu left, the old patriarch said to me again: "I have heard that Daoist Yang is strong, and today's ancestors are dusty, and I ask Daoist not to leave, help us bury the remains of our ancestors." ”

I said: "If you don't say it, I won't leave, the big black man Liu Laojiu met yesterday is a coffin board, after we are buried, we have to get rid of the coffin board, otherwise we will become a coffin demon and there will be endless troubles." ”

After hearing this, the old patriarch nodded and said, "Yang Daochang really lives up to his reputation, although he is not very old, his mind is above the old decay. ”

I hurriedly said, "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." ”

Then the old patriarch and I discussed the matter of his ancestor, and I said: "Your ancestor's coffin has been soiled by Liu Laojiu, as the saying goes, there is no living thing left in the coffin of the dead, and this coffin must be replaced." ”

When the old patriarch heard this, he said: "This is not difficult, I still have a longevity wood at home, which is made of cypress wood, and is brushed with tung oil every year, although it is not a high-quality coffin, but it is not a humiliation when used on the ancestors." ”

Then the old patriarch led us to see his coffin, his coffin was good, the old patriarch said that it was made of twelve thick cypress trees, these are exquisite, called twelve circles, three on each side, as the saying goes, three walls, the more roots, the smaller the wood, the lower the grade.

His coffin is made of three or five materials according to folk customs, that is, the bottom of the wood is three inches thick, the wood is four inches thick, and the material cap (material cover) is five inches thick. The shape of this coffin is high and bulging at one end and small at the other. I know that this kind of coffin can not be successful at once, after the longevity material is laid, I have to ask the lacquerer to scrape the ash with tung oil mixed with lime, and fill the caulking inside and out. Brush tung oil inside and outside, brush clay paint outside, dark black, the outermost layer is also with raw lacquer and boiling varnish, the longevity side is painted smooth and clear, and the front of the big head is written with the word longevity.

The old patriarch touched his coffin and said, "Old man, you have been blessed for so many years, and now I will give you to the ancestor." ”

At this time, Liu Laojiu came back and said to the old patriarch: "Patriarch, the people of the Liu family have arrived at the ancestral hall, you go over and talk about it." ”

The old patriarch said, "Okay, the three Dao Elders will also go with me to have a look." ”

Talking in front of the front, we followed, in front of a big house like the temple, there are many people standing in front, there are adults and children, men and women, anyway, there are many people, the old patriarch approached, those people shouted that the old patriarch came, I saw the same house as the temple, written Liu's ancestral hall. As soon as the old patriarch came, these people gave way one after another, and we followed the old patriarch inside. Everyone was talking, and the old patriarch knocked on the ground with his cane, and then said, "Everyone, be quiet, listen to me." ”

The old patriarch's words were very effective, everyone heard the old patriarch say this, they stopped talking, looked at the old patriarch, and then the old patriarch said: "I'll tell you something, a very unfortunate thing, the ancestral tomb of the fifth ancestor of our family, let the tomb robber steal it, the bones of the ancestor are scattered all over the place, where does this make the face of our old Liu family go?" What I want to talk about today is to use a new coffin to re-bury the ancestors. ”

After the old patriarch finished speaking, there was a lot of discussion below, to the effect that it was about the coffin, and then the old patriarch said: "Listen, big guy, don't worry about the coffin, let my coffin out." ”

Everyone was very happy when they heard that the old patriarch let the coffin out, because this major item of the coffin was removed, and the other expenses were very small, the old patriarch asked people to prepare things, and then hurriedly sewed some filial piety hats, prepared paper offerings, and carried the coffin to the cemetery.

After arriving at the cemetery, the Liu clan first burned paper there, and after burning the paper money, everyone was going to break the ground, and I read there: "The true dragon treasure cave is wide, and the purple gold coffin is buried in the ground." The sages left feng shui land, and the tomb was placed in Wolong Beach. One, two, three, four, five, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, the five elements lead to heaven and earth, gossip determines Qiankun, Pangu opens the world, Shanhuang protects the land, Jiang Shang first arrived, please avoid the hundred evils, I am ordered by Yang Gongzu to open the nine palaces, the sky is untaboo, the earth is taboo, yin and yang are taboo, and there are no taboos. It's time to open the earth. ”

At this time, everyone went up together, and dug it from the main gate with utensils, and there were two huge stone doors closed inside, and the stone door was carved with the sacred beast guarding the tomb, and the stone door could not be opened from the outside, but it could be opened from the inside, and at this time there were already people who removed things from the inside and opened the stone door.

The old patriarch walked in tremblingly with a cane, and when he saw the remains of the ancestor scattered to the ground, he knelt down all of a sudden, and cried bitterly, and the descendants of the Liu family also cried with him. Then I waited for them to cry enough, so I asked them to pull out the old coffin, these people used a very thick rope, everyone worked together, and then pulled the coffin out, although this coffin was many years old, but it did not rot, and everyone then pulled the new coffin in, and then someone was there to pick up the bones, and I recited the mantra of picking up the bones next to me, "People have arrows and bones and flesh are connected, and the underworld walks around; was reborn in the west, and the forced paradise became an immortal. Leave the bones in the bag, and the auspicious purple clouds surround Zhu Xuan. The head is the head and the feet are the feet, and the head and feet are all left in the limbs. Heart, liver, spleen, stomach, intestines, kidneys, lungs, five internal organs, and six internal organs are round ......"

As I spoke, the person who collected the bones put the bones on a white cloth and arranged them neatly in the order of the human bones, and did not dare to mess with them in the slightest. After finishing it, the bones were wrapped together and put back in the coffin, and I read: "The dragon sucks the water of the three rivers on the left, and the tiger climbs the Wanzhong Mountain on the right, leaving the bones like shrubs, and the rest of the church is safe." The golden black jade rabbit is purple, and the infinite blessing shade is wide. ”

After that, let them seal the coffin, and then everyone rebuilt the grave, and then everything was over. After packing up, everyone was about to leave, and I quickly stopped these people and said, "The big guy can't go, there is still an important thing to do." ”

Everyone was stunned, I asked Liu Laojiu to tell the matter again, everyone knew that there was a big black one, so they asked Liu Laojiu to lead the way to dig up the big black one, Liu Laojiu said that he was stunned at the time, and he didn't know where the big black one went in the end, and finally I said: "There is a car in front and a rut behind it, as long as we follow the traces left by the big black one, go to find the big black one, and we can easily find it." ”

The big guys listened to me now, so I led the men and followed the traces left by the big black man until I found a large cave that had collapsed, and the hole was so smooth that I could see that something was often haunting. Please support the genuine version and save this book.
