At this time, I saw a black shadow hurriedly running from behind the fat man, holding the back of the fat man's neck with both hands, the fat man was thrown to the ground by this sudden force, I was frightened by this sudden scene, and saw an old man in a shroud, About 1.75 meters tall, wearing a black hat, wearing a pair of cloth shoes on his feet, his face was black, he gritted his teeth and choked the fat man's neck with both hands, and the fat man was also pinched at this time and couldn't breathe, and then, I may be frightened and didn't know what I was here for, and said loudly: "Come on, help."

The fat man heard my scream, and then puffed up his breath and said to me loudly, "What are you called, shut up, don't scare the corpse owner".

I was frightened by the fat man's sudden words, and I didn't scream, just looked at the fat man, stretched out his right hand from his body, and then stretched out his sword finger, and pointed his finger at the corpse owner's eyebrows, the corpse owner was suddenly fingered, lost his center of gravity, the fat man saw the opportunity to turn over, and pressed the corpse owner under him, and then pressed the corpse master's hands in a cross-handed form on his chest, and kept chanting the incantation in his mouth: "The sky is clear, the sky is clear, not frightened", and then, the fat man took out a cigarette from his pocket, Then he took a sharp breath and blew on the face of the corpse owner, and the corpse owner lost his motivation at this time and lay there upright, at this time, the fat man also breathed a sigh of relief, and said to me, "Bring the bowl."

I hurriedly handed over the bowl, and then the fat man took the bowl with his right hand, took a few puffs of the cigarette in his left hand, and bounced the ashes of the cigarette butt to the eggs in the bowl, and a few pieces of soot fell on the blood of the eggs, and then slowly buckled the bowl on the ground, and slowly drew a circle on the ground, and then picked up the bowl, knocked the eggs in the bowl to the edge of the bowl, and slowly flowed out the egg whites.

The fat man gave me a look, which meant to go out and come to the courtyard, and the fat man said to the eldest son of the corpse owner, "Okay, the matter is done, take the old man into the coffin, and I'll leave if it's okay." With that, the fat man left, and I followed.

At this time, the woman who was looking for us ran out in a hurry and gave me and the fat man a red envelope, but the fat man refused, the fat man turned to the woman and said: "Okay, these don't need to, do more good deeds to the old man, just release more lives", after saying that, I never looked back, I followed the fat man, and asked the fat man suspiciously: "Fat brother, what's going on?" ”

The fat man said: "One is that the time of death of the owner of this corpse is wrong, and the other is that when the patriarch was guarding the spirit last night, he was trampled on by a cat, and then he cheated the corpse."

I was even more puzzled and asked, "If you are stepped on by a cat, you will cheat the corpse?" ”

The fat man explained: "This is why in the countryside to keep a vigil, for fear that there are some unclean things or animals, such as cats and dogs, if you encounter a dead person at this time, it is easy to have problems or these animals eat the corpse."

"Then why do cats and dogs have problems when they step on corpses?" I asked, the fat man said as he walked: "Because cats, this kind of thing is very evil, in foreign countries, cats are called messengers of the underworld or elves from the underworld, because cats like to come out at night, and cats have no sound when they walk, they walk softly and lightly, sometimes they will suddenly startle, people die not immediately The corpse will not react, there is a process, this process is the process of separation of the corpse and the soul, under normal circumstances, this process of separation takes 12 hours to 24 hours, and the rural people keep the soul one is filial piety, The second is the white paper covering the face of the dead, if the dead person is not dead or fake death, at this time sometimes there will be breathing, and the white paper covering the face of the dead person will have movement, at this time the people who guard the spirit can find that the cats raised by the city people now have no spirituality, but the wild cats in the countryside usually have a certain spirituality and wildness, if at this time, the dead are in the process of separation, if the three souls and seven spirits are frightened by the cat, something will happen, and dogs, especially black dogs, because on the way to the underworld, There is a place called Vicious Dog Ridge, and if the dead are separated by a dog approaching and the dead are startled, something will happen. The fat man said.

When I heard this, I thought to myself that the horror movies on many old movies were true, and there was a basis for the statement, and it turned out that there was also a source, so I asked again: "Fat brother, what will happen if the separation is not finished?" ”

The fat man stopped at this time, turned back to me and said: "There is no separation, at this time, if you are sent directly to the funeral home by the unreasonable family, then the deceased can watch himself open his eyes and watch himself sent to the crematorium, and then it is burned, although the corpse is not feeling, but this fear is unimaginable, see yourself lying in the crematorium, the hot flame is burning towards yourself, there will definitely be a lot of fear, you want to speak, the corpse has no reaction, you can't run if you want to run, you think about how terrible this is, If this person originally wanted to be reincarnated in the good way, but at this time he was burned in this way because his family did not know what was going on, the fear and hatred that arose would cause the soul of the dead to resent, and then he would fall into the evil path, and the reincarnation would definitely not be good. ”

I asked the fat man and said, "Many people think that this is superstition, saying that when people die, they don't feel anything anymore and don't exist."

The fat man sighed, and then said: "What is superstition, what is science, now people have been washed their brains, superstition is not to understand the truth has been blind worship and belief this is called superstition, if you believe in science too much, have been taking science as the truth, dead science, this is also superstition, but these do not go to this aspect to think, the world, can not sit in the well and watch the sky, don't think of their own cognition as this world is also like this, boy, you must not have such thoughts, otherwise you will never be able to learn this subject, You have to learn to be neutral, to be impartial, to distinguish between right and wrong, between yin and yang." After saying that, the fat man sighed and continued to walk, walking in the direction of the master's house.

After a month, we didn't have anything else to do, and I went to that cemetery every week for the same reason that I had to learn to channel.
