How much was gold leaf worth back then? Dong Sanli burned these coins can buy a big mansion, so isn't it cheap for this hanging master?

Regardless of whether it was gold leaf or cow dung paper, it turned into paper ashes and floated into the air after being burned. Ma Lao Er looked up and glanced in mid-air, and the gold leaf paper ash slowly floated down from mid-air, instead of being blown away by the northwest wind.

"Ouch...... What a greedy old hanger! Are you toasting and not eating and drinking? Hum! Ma Lao Er threw all these gold leaf coins into the fire, and he brushed his sleeves away angrily.

What's going on? There is a folk saying that when burning paper money for the dead, you have to look at the paper ashes, if the paper ashes are scattered outside and around, it must be the dead people to collect the money, but if these paper ashes do not fly into the sky and fall vertically, it must be that the ancestors have been reincarnated and reincarnated, and there is no need for descendants to sacrifice. Don't believe me yet, don't believe me next time, just observe carefully, even if there is no wind, a relative who has just passed away a few years ago, burn paper for him, and the paper ash will definitely be floating around.

Ma Lao Erxin said, look at your corpse and know that you haven't been dead for long, the paper ash does not fly around, but falls vertically, what does it mean? Don't even give money, do you want my life?

"Hmph...... Good! Then let's just walk and see? Ma Lao Er spat at the corpse, turned around and left.

There are four directions in total, and at least two more directions have not been walked, could it be that this unjust ghost can trap himself to death?

You may have to ask, since the other party wants to kill himself, why didn't he burn the corpse and kill it? Those who talk like this do not understand funeral customs. Cremation was only practiced in the late 80s, and in the old days, people were buried in the ground, and burning the corpses of people was a detrimental thing to yin morality. The two families have formed a blood feud, so they will throw the corpses of their ancestors out of the grave and burn them to vent their hatred.

Ma Lao Er didn't want to kill him quickly, leaving room for each other, so he couldn't just hide if he couldn't provoke him.

But after walking about two or three hundred meters in the third direction, I found that the old hanger appeared on the crooked neck tree. This time I really Second Master Ma, isn't this too much of a deception? He's a murderous beard! Are you afraid of the living, but you are still afraid of the dead?

The second master didn't think about it, he raised his hand and pulled the trigger continuously at the corpse, and beat the old hanging master into a sieve and fell from the tree. He snapped a few dry branches, threw them at the corpse, and struck a match.

But as soon as the match lit the flame, it was hula...... It was blown out by a small evil wind behind him.

"Oops, I wipe ...... Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil! Ma Lao Er clicked half a box of matchsticks in a row, and without exception, all of them were blown by the wind.

Although the wind is strong, he covers the wind with a cotton robe, how can this be blown out? I have to believe in evil!

The more Ma Lao Er thinks about it, the more angry he becomes, are you still so serious about a dead man? "Gentleman, although I can't order you, I can dismantle you! Do you really want to end up dead? ”

As the saying goes, the soft are afraid of the hard, the hard are afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal is afraid of the dead. As soon as Ma Lao Er said this, a matchstick that had just been thrown into the snow suddenly miraculously caught fire again.

"Hey...... Sorry, late! "The matchstick was thrown on the branches, these branches are all pine trees, don't look at the snow in winter, but the weather in the northeast is dry, and the snow is knocked down, and it is not wet at all, and the pine trees contain pine resin, and they catch fire.

In a moment, the fire was raging, and the smell of barbecued meat filled the valley.

Ma Lao Er thought that this matter would end here, and after walking a few steps forward, he suddenly saw an old tree with a crooked neck in the snow, and there was still an old hanger hanging on the tree. This old hangman is exactly the same as the one he was burned by himself just now, but there are no bullet holes on his body. He was also ruthless, not only was he not timid, but he did the same thing, and got the corpse down and ordered it.

After more than three hours of tossing and turning, he checked that he had burned a total of fourteen corpses for most of his night, and what puzzled him was that none of the corpses were the same person. Young people are like this, they don't hit the south wall and don't look back, anyway, it's more than three o'clock in the middle of the night, and it's not too early to go back at this time, so they simply compete with this old hanger to the end.

Giggle...... Giggle...... As dawn broke, roosters crowed from the village outside the mountains. The snow in the sky also gradually stopped. The snow stopped, and the vision immediately brightened, the yin and yang had alternated, and the ghosts and ghosts had dispersed, and the old hanger who was blocking the way was gone, and there were only two left in the matchbox.

He let out a sigh of relief, this night of tossing, let's be less curious in the future.

He wanted to find the mountain road, but when he turned over the mountain beam in front of him, he saw that it was the small temple from last night. It turns out that I haven't walked out of this realm all night! I've been being played by others!

He looked left and right, trying to find the body that had been burned by him last night, but there was no way around. Ma Erye walked to the temple, but there was no one in the temple, only a pile of burnt black charcoal, and he didn't even take the shrine.

Even if Second Master Ma is more knowledgeable, he can't explain the strange thing that happened last night. He walked back in a daze, and he could only ask Ji Xinzheng about this matter.

"New? Eldest brother? I'm back, do you have any food for me? Before entering the hospital, Ma Lao Er shouted.

"The second master is back? Quietly, the eldest brother has just fallen asleep. When I entered the house, Ji Xinzheng was sitting in front of the stove and was busy working, Xiao Cui'er was holding a hot hand towel in her hand and wiping Dong Sanli's face.

Dong Sanli lay on the bed and slept very deeply, he didn't wake up when he shouted such a big movement just now.

"Sleep? Just slept? He didn't sleep all night? Wait for me? ”

"Ouch, don't mention it, you just left the eldest brother and had a fever, maybe it's a swing." The mountain saying is that it is a bad cold.

"Ah...... I'm just swinging as soon as I'm gone? Ma Lao Er's eyes turned, isn't this time just the time when Xiao Cui'er followed the group of shamans to dance the gods? Could it be a coincidence?

He looked at Xiao Cui'er out of the corner of his eye, Xiao Cui'er was still dressed yesterday, the little girl was very diligent, and she was very thoughtful, she took the hot porridge delivered by Ji Xinzheng and was feeding it to Dong Sanli's mouth.

"Cui'er, you ...... last night What time will you be back? Second Master Ma asked.

"Not much, huh? I'm going to get a rabbit for my eldest brother to eat, and I can't take the money for nothing, right? Xiao Cui'er replied very naturally, and glanced at the edge of the stove, and sure enough, there was a gray rabbit upside down.

"Xinzheng, is the eldest brother's illness serious?"

"It's okay, don't worry, with me, I've already dispelled the plague for my eldest brother in the middle of the night, and I also fed ginger soup just now, our eldest brother is strong, and he will be fine when he wakes up from sleep." Ji Xinzheng comforted him and said.
