70: Grandma cheated

Life, unspeakable.

It's fate, no matter how hard you struggle, it's useless.

Just like some people, who are destined to live only to be thirty-eight years old, then they will never live to be thirty-nine years old, which is something that can be seen from the eight characters after coming into contact with numerology.

For this fact, even if I don't want to accept it, I can only bear it.

Calling my mother back, my grandmother said something to my mother, and then told me the truth of being a human being, and finally explained how to deal with the aftermath.

When I learned from my grandmother, she said that this road would not end well, and I was still thinking about what it would be like to end well.

The so-called unsuccessful ending means that the burial process will not go smoothly, and what will happen to the specific situation, grandma did not elaborate, only said what situation should be solved.

The grave was still the one buried before it began, and the coffin that was buried was the red coffin in the dark room. The funeral time is this evening, as soon as 0:00 arrives, go out on time.

The funeral people, grandma originally wanted to find the people in the village, but thinking of their attitude during this time, she just let the money go outside to find two to help pull the coffin.

This funeral will not give me my life, thinking that outsiders may be frightened, and something goes wrong on the way, I thought of Cao Guangshan and the fat man. In the past few months, three people have come to me, offering to find three people, plus the four of me can also pull the coffin up the mountain, grandma nodded in agreement after a little silence.

At the same time, my grandmother also handed over to me the little ghost named Xiaotong and asked me to treat him well, saying that he was very pitiful, because he was born at the wrong time, so he could not be reincarnated, so he could only be raised by his side.

After these explanations, my grandmother reached out and touched my face and said: "Meridian, the destiny of heaven is inviolable, people's hearts are unpredictable, and the nature of some people in this world is destined, you must be careful, don't be calculated." ”

For my soft-hearted situation, my grandmother's evaluation is an advantage, but also a disadvantage, reminding me more than once that I should not be merciful when doing things with a cold heart, because not every life is worth saving, but if I meet someone who needs help, even if I risk my life, I can't back down.

"yes, I see."

I nodded earnestly, and my grandmother smiled with satisfaction, and just as I was about to speak, my grandmother's hand on my face suddenly drooped, and at the same time, her eyes slowly closed.

Grandma is gone, walking so fast.

Even though I had known about this result for a long time, I still broke down and howled loudly, unable to accept this result.

After a while, my mother reminded me that there was a lot to do, and I was afraid that I would not be able to catch up.

Wiping away tears, I went out to call Cao Guangshan, learned that my grandmother had passed away and needed him to help with the funeral, Cao Guangshan said that it would be an hour to arrive, and then, I went to the next village to find the fat man and the stone.

Knowing the situation, the two of them didn't say a word, put down what they were doing, and came back with me, just in time to meet Cao Guangshan, who arrived. The four of us worked together to carry the big red coffin out of the dark room, and then put my grandmother inside.

Under normal circumstances, the coffin is sealed with iron nails, but grandma uses mahogany nails, which she has prepared a long time ago, a total of eight, and they are full of dense incantations.

Ten oil lamps that had previously surrounded the coffin in the dark room were also brought, but this time they were placed not around the coffin, but on the lid of the coffin, arranged in a straight line.

Grandma specially explained that the ten lamps need to be fixed on the coffin lid to accompany the burial, and when the coffin is carried out of the yard and put on the car, the ten oil lamps must be lit in the fastest time.

Grandma Lamp Oil is also ready, I sniffed it, and found that it was the same as the oil she had asked her to light for seven days before, Xu Buhuo said that this kind of oil-lit lamp could not be blown out by the wind.

On the way to the funeral, when one of the ten oil lamps is extinguished, we must stop, each person lights an incense stick and bows three times to the extinguished oil lamp, and then inserts the incense at his feet, scatters paper money, and continues to move forward.

Not sure when the oil lamps would go out, my grandmother told her that the faster she could go up the mountain, the better, and that it was best to rush to the cemetery and put the coffin in the pit before the ten oil lamps were completely extinguished.

If we fail to deliver the coffin to the cemetery before the 10 oil lamps are extinguished, we must stop immediately when the 10th oil lamp is extinguished, pour gasoline directly on the coffin and light it.

After the coffin was lit, it immediately retreated to a distance of fifty paces, and could not approach until the burning was completely over, and then the wreckage and ashes could be directly brought to the grave, no matter what kind of burning it was.

After explaining these explanations to the three of them, the faces of the three of them were not very natural, and Cao Guangshan even asked me: "Why is your grandmother's arrangement a little like preventing herself?" ”

It's okay not to say this, but as soon as I say it, it arouses the previous conjecture in my mind.

I felt strange when I heard my grandmother's explanation, whether it was the peach wood nails that sealed the coffin, or the ten oil lamps placed on the coffin lid, and the coffin would be lit if the coffin was not buried before the oil lamp was extinguished, which made me feel like my grandmother would be a corpse.

Why else would the coffin be lit?

At that time, I wanted to ask, but my grandmother didn't give me a chance to open my mouth at all, and now I can't ask if I want to.

I don't know exactly what will happen at night, I just hope that there is not a lot of turmoil on the road, and that my grandmother will be buried before the oil lamp goes out, otherwise it would be a pity that such a good coffin would burn.

While waiting, to be steady, I drew a spell on each of the three stone trio on their chests to protect them from inexplicable injuries during the funeral.

Time passes slowly.

After dark, some people in the village somehow learned the news of Grandma's death and came to worship.

After sending the villagers away, it was time for the funeral, I looked at my watch, and when the time entered zero o'clock, the four of us worked hard to carry the coffin to the cart outside the door with great difficulty.

The four of them started to light the lamps at the same time, and then took incense, paper money, yellow paper, and gasoline cans and quickly went up the mountain.

The invisible nervousness made us not speak, I buried my head in pulling the car, and Cao Guangshan and the three of them helped in the rear.

For safety reasons, I had already opened the eye of heaven before twelve o'clock, and the cart was not much when I was in the village, but as I passed the last house, I saw a strong yin qi rushing towards us from the mountains.

"Meridian, the lights are out."

The stone exclaimed, I hurriedly stopped, and then according to the previous instructions, lit incense, and sprinkled paper money and yellow paper.

The wind is whistling, the yellow paper is flying, and the paper money is on the ground.

I looked around and noticed that there were ghosts, but I didn't dare to tell them that there were ghosts around, so I picked up the cart and continued to rush up the mountain.

I knew that before I had walked ten meters, there was another exclamation from the stone.

Another light went out.

This time, I clearly saw an old man with a pale face lying on his grandmother's coffin, licking the oil in the extinguished oil lamp.

The old man suddenly turned his head to look at me, which made me shiver, gritted his teeth, pretended not to see, and continued to light incense, worship, and sprinkle paper money and yellow paper.

When we were done, I looked up and saw that the old man lying on the coffin was gone.

At this time, I knew why Xu Buhuo said that the fire ignited by this oil could not be extinguished by the wind.

The wind cannot be extinguished, only the ghost can be blown out.

Hold your breath and continue up the mountain.

What makes me desperate is that every time I walk more than ten or twenty meters, the oil lamp will be blown out by ghosts.

Halfway up the mountain, there were only three oil lamps left on, which made me nervous, and intuitively felt that it would be difficult to get to the graveyard until the oil lamps were completely extinguished.

"Rush."

I roared and rushed up the hill with all my might, trying to get my grandmother's coffin to the graveyard as soon as possible, because I didn't want her body to be burned.

The three fat men also knew that the situation was not very optimistic, and they hummed and contributed one by one.

When we arrived at the cemetery, only the last oil lamp was still on. We had to carry the coffin, only to find that our hands and feet were already sore.

At this moment, a dark figure in the distance quickly rushed towards Grandma's coffin, and it was clear that his target was this last oil lamp.

Looking at the rushing black shadow, my heart suddenly ruthless, opened my mouth to break the middle finger, when the black shadow rushed up, stepped on the nine palace steps, dodged to stop in front, and poked the bloody finger directly at the black shadow.

The black shadow was hurt and immediately shrank into the distance.

"Quick."

Time was of the essence, and despite the weakness of our hands and feet, we struggled to lift the coffin off the cart and move quickly to the grave.

"Boom."

The coffin fell to the ground with a bang, and the moment the coffin hit the ground, the last oil lamp went out automatically, and this time I didn't see a ghost.

Seeing what seemed to be done, we sat down on the ground, gasping for air.

"Huhuhu......"

Suddenly the wind blew all around, blowing on the stones, and they could only feel that the wind was a little cold, but in my eyes, these winds were all yin winds mixed with yin qi.

In the yin wind, black shadows flashed from time to time.

"Ziwu, it's a little strange that the lights went out just now, what is the result?" Cao Guangshan asked me suddenly.

At first, before I could react to what he meant, I was about to ask when I thought that the moment the coffin fell to the ground, the oil fire was just extinguished.

Grandma didn't explain this situation.

Did the coffin be placed in the grave before the oil lamp went out?

Or was the coffin not placed in the grave before the oil lamp went out?

If it's the former, you don't have to think about anything, but if it's the latter, you have to burn the coffin.

After thinking about it carefully, I was also confused, and I couldn't tell what the situation just now was, because the coffin fell to the ground and the oil lamp went out, as if it happened at the same time.

"Huhuhu......"

The wind around me was blowing more and more violently, and it made me very uneasy.

Looking at the coffin, thinking about the grandmother lying inside, I didn't want her to be burned, and I didn't see the ghost blowing the lamp just now, so I said, "It should have been a success." ”

The safest thing to do is to burn the coffin directly, but out of selfishness, I can't do it.

The yin wind blew goosebumps all over the body, and Cao Guangshan urged him to hurry up and bury himself down the mountain.

"Boom."

As soon as the earth was poured on the coffin, the coffin made a loud noise.

This sound frightened us immediately.

"Did you shovel a rock?" The fat man asked, thinking that it was a stone mixed in the dirt that hit the coffin, I shook my head, and the two of them said they didn't know.

After waiting for a few more seconds, and seeing no movement from the coffin, I continued to shovel the earth.

"Boom."

This time, as soon as the soil fell on the coffin, the coffin shook suddenly, and the oil lamp fixed on the lid of the coffin was directly shattered.

In an instant, there was only one thought in my mind: grandma cheated.
