Chapter 23: The Corpse (1)
When a person dies, sometimes there is still a breath left in the chest, and if he is washed by a cat or a dog or a mouse, he will be resurrected, and the animal soul will possess the corpse, and the corpse at this time will be like a resurrected beast scurrying and biting, and it will chase after the living thing.
As for the scientific explanation, after death, the bioelectric field of the body no longer exists, but due to the surrounding cats, dogs and other fur animals, the body will produce a kind of electric ion, which will have an effect on the body after death, causing some life characteristics of the deceased to react, thus forming a fraudulent corpse.
In mountain villages, burials are the mainstay, and according to local customs, mortuaries and other issues will also be involved, so there is a great chance to form a fraudulent corpse. The corpse suddenly stood up for no reason and attacked people and animals, which made people shudder to hear.
In the past, it really happened in our village, and Liu Wuye will give you the specific details.
The years and months of this incident are long enough, when Liu Wuye was still a teenager, the country has just stabilized after many years of conquest, and is in the recovery period, everyone has a red heart, a determined attitude, and comprehensively carry out national construction.
The same is true in small mountain villages, where people have their own fields and are self-reliant, and although life is extremely difficult, everyone is in full swing. As a new generation in the new era, Liu Wuye shoulders a more desired role, but if there is a new generation, some of the older generation will be left. The replacement of the old and the new in nature is an eternal rule.
The older generation in the village died of old age. Sun Laoga mentioned above, his age is similar to that of the fifth master, his father used to live for the landlord to resist the long life, and when he was young, he fell ill and his health has not been good.
It is said that in the autumn of this year, Sun Laoga's father had reached the time when the oil ran out and the lamp was dry, and the sons and daughters of Sun Lao Ga were all by his side.
The people in the family had already prepared in their hearts, so the shroud was put on, and the coffin was parked in the yard early, and when the person breathed, it was carried to the coffin. Because he died at night, the mortuary must be stopped and buried until tomorrow morning.
The coffin with the corpse was parked in the courtyard overnight, and personnel needed to be arranged to take care of it. Second, and most importantly, to prevent cats and dogs from getting something close to the coffin.
At that time, it was two people who arranged to take care of the coffin at night, and they had to find someone who was bold, after all, they had to be by the corpse at night and couldn't leave. At that time, Xiao Wuzi and He Lao Er were arranged to take care of them. The two of them are also bold people in the village, and usually this kind of work in the village is to find the two of them. These two also divide their own labor, one is responsible for the first half of the night, and the other is responsible for the second half of the night, after all, if they both stay up late, the body will not be able to bear it. In this way, Xiao Wuzi was responsible for the first half of the night, and He Lao Er arranged for the second half of the night to take care of him.
Because it was autumn, and the temperature difference between day and night in the mountain village was large, the temperature was very low at night. Unconsciously, he came to Er'er on the other day, and the night was fine, and then He Lao Er slept and came to replace the shift.
At this time, it was the second half of the night, when the sky was the darkest, there was silence all around, He Lao Er found a hug of firewood again, and burned the fire vigorously, the red flames reflected the red coffin, the plastic sheet on the shed built on the coffin, the crackling sound of the wind, the surrounding darkness, and a few night owl calls from time to time.
Although He Lao Er was bold, but after all, he stayed with a dead man, and he still didn't feel hairy in his heart, so he lit a cigarette, wrapped his torn jacket vigorously, and sat down next to the coffin.
Time passed little by little, and it was only an hour before the dawn. He Lao Er felt sleepy, so he stood up and moved his body. Suddenly heard, meow! Bang! Startled He Lao Er, and looked at the windowsill behind the coffin by the light of the fire, and I don't know when a cat came. Covered in black, with blue eyes glowing, he squatted on the windowsill like that.
He Lao Er was shocked! I thought that the big thing was not good, and I must not let the cat get close to the coffin, but at this time I was helpless, for fear of alarming the cat, and the cat was in a hurry, maybe it really ran to the coffin.
That's it, one person and one cat, stalemate with each other, and no one moves! It's really a person who memorizes words, drinks water and stuffs his teeth, and the more afraid things are! At this time, only a fluttering sound was heard, and a night owl flew up from the ridge of the house. This alarm doesn't matter, the cat was frightened, meowed, and jumped onto the coffin, and before He Lao Er could react, the cat swished, ran along the coffin lid, and disappeared in a jump.
All this happened too fast, and He Lao Er was stunned like a fool. Because he had heard about the corpses of the dead, he didn't feel a tight heart! I stood like that for ten minutes and didn't dare to move. There was still silence all around, and there was nothing out of the ordinary, so my heart was a little more stable. Seeing nothing unusual, He Lao Er sat by the fire again.
Estimating the kung fu of touching a bag of cigarettes, He Lao Er suddenly heard the sound of kalala, and the sound of kalala came over one after another. He Lao Er thought it was the cat again, stood up, picked up a stick, and scolded in his mouth: "Damn cat is making trouble again, see if I don't kill you!" But when I looked around, I didn't find any trace of the cat.
When he was suspicious, he heard a loud bang, and the lid of the coffin snapped open. Before He Lao Er could see what was going on, he saw Sun Laoga's father's body, and he stood up in the coffin with a breath and lifted the plastic sheeting on the coffin. He Lao Er's mother screamed, took a few steps back, and sat on the ground.
