Chapter 2 Coffin Liu
My name is Zhang Xiaofan, because I ran into a ghost because I was looking for a female ticket.
According to the surveillance footage, I can be almost 100% sure that the beautiful woman who served last night was the paper man, that is, the ghost.
The thought of sleeping all night with a paper figure used to commemorate the dead made me feel a chilly feeling of fear, and at the same time worried, not knowing what would happen next.
After throwing away the paper figure, with a one-ten-thousandth fluke, I thought that this matter was over, but I didn't know that it was not as simple as I thought.
For the next few days, I dreamed of the woman for several nights, and demanded it from me as if she was dissatisfied, which made me lustful at night, and became more and more ferocious, playing in all kinds of positions, and tormenting me unspeakably.
Although it was just a dream, I don't know why, but it felt very real, especially when I woke up the next morning, my back hurt and I didn't even have the strength to get dressed......
Every day I went to work, with two big dark circles under my eyes, I was listless at work, and my co-workers laughed at me for overindulgence at night......
They were just joking, but every time I heard that, my heart trembled.
After work, I went to the feng shui shop and bought a few runes to stick on the lintel, and closed the doors and windows tightly before going to bed, even so, that dream still comes every night......
In this way, in less than a week, I lost a lot of weight, I was late for work three or four times, and the foreman was not satisfied and fired me directly.
Looking at me in the mirror, I was terrified to the extreme, if I continued like this, I would definitely die.
In the past few days, I have been inquiring about the mouths of my co-workers and have heard a lot of ghost stories about paper figures, each of which is more terrifying than the other, and has similarities with my situation......
I'm even more sure that not only did I run into ghosts, but I was haunted by them.
And the horror is that the protagonists of those ghost stories can escape death without exception......
Thinking of this, I was so confused, I didn't dare to stay in this city any longer, so I had to go home to avoid the limelight and see if I could avoid it.
At noon on the day I left my job, I packed my things, took my luggage to the bus station, and got on the bus back to my hometown.
My hometown is in Huayue Village, a four-hour drive from the county seat, and I don't believe that the female ghost can catch up.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, when I arrived at my hometown, my parents were shocked when they saw me, especially my mother, who stared at me and said, "Fanwazi, why have you become like this?" ”
I knew that at this time I had yellow skin and thin muscles, and Yintang was black, but in order not to worry my parents, I lied, saying that I played games and played all night in the Internet café in the county last night, and it was good to sleep.
Mom and Dad were skeptical.
I gave them some of the money I earned from my part-time job, and then my mother made me a delicious meal, and I was sleepy after eating, and as soon as I touched my head on the pillow, I fell asleep.
However, I really didn't dream of the woman again that night, I thought that this was the end of the matter, and before I had time to rejoice, I knew that the next morning, I had a high fever, and the fever was quite serious, and it did not subside for several days.
My parents were so anxious that they went to the town to hire a few doctors and hung up the hanging bottles, but to no avail.
The second elder panicked instantly, discussed it privately, and the father said: "I see that the baby has hit an evil spirit, and I will go and invite Liu Liu, the coffin of the god at the head of the village." ”
Coffin Liu looks scary, pockmarked face, still a hunchback, has a good skill in making woodwork, especially the coffin, opened a coffin shop in the village, people from ten miles and eight miles come to him to buy, over time, got a nickname of "coffin Liu", and his real name was forgotten.
This coffin Liu is quite capable, except for one-handed wooden work, he usually treats anyone in the village who has a strange disease or something.
Someone died and was buried, and he also helped watch the days.
When the coffin Liu came, it was night, and when I entered the house and saw me lying on the bed and dying, my face changed drastically, and I shouted loudly: "Get out, see if I don't let your soul fly away!" ”
I was unprepared, and under the huge shock of body and mind, suddenly a black shadow floated in front of my eyes.
Like a rabbit, he jumped from the bed to the flower cabinet at once, and then kicked his legs on the flower cabinet, and with a "whoosh" sound, he drilled out of the pasty hole in the window.
The shadow was so fast that I couldn't see what it looked like, but I was scared because it seemed to have jumped out of my body.
After shouting, the coffin Liu ran out of the house in a hurry......
I chuckled in my heart, could it be that the black shadow is a female ghost, and it has been lurking in my body all along?
Strange to say, I was frightened by the coffin Liu, I sweated, and my high fever subsided in less than two hours.
When the coffin Liu came back, it was already the second half of the night, and he looked tired and asked me how I was.
My parents were very happy to see that I was fine, and took out more than 200 yuan to thank Liu for the coffin.
But the coffin Liu waved his hand, and refused to accept it, saying that he could hide from the first day of junior high school, but he couldn't hide from the fifteenth, this female ghost escaped tonight, and she will definitely come again.
Because I am the only seedling in the family, my mother cried and begged the coffin Liu to save my life no matter what, and said, still in my father's angry gaze, I took out another three hundred yuan from the chest of drawers and handed it to the coffin Liu.
Coffin Liu pondered for a moment, nodded and agreed......
My parents were relieved, and my father asked Coffin Liu what I was getting entangled in.
Coffin Liu looked at me with a pair of chirping eyes and said, "Then you have to ask Fan Wazi himself." ”
My dad and mom hurriedly asked me what I had done.
My old face was red, and I didn't say anything for a long time.
Seeing this, my father was anxious and shouted: "Say it quickly!" ”
Although I am almost an adult, my father's majesty is still there, and I dare not disobey him, so I vomited for a long time and told me about finding a female ticket.
When the father heard that I had learned to prostitute, he was furious, picked up the broom behind the door and hit me, and finally was stopped by the coffin Liu and his mother.
Said that I was young and ignorant, and I was recovering from a serious illness, what if I broke it.
But my father didn't give up, and angrily scolded me for being a bastard and a loser, and scolded me for being in a hurry, and said that he would go to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife and chop off my thing.
I didn't say a word, let my father scold, and at the same time regretted in my heart, if I hadn't found a female ticket that night, I wouldn't have caused so much trouble for myself and my family.
Actually, my tutor is very good, usually clean and self-conscious, not stained with pornography, gambling and drugs, but I don't know what happened that night, and the sperm worm is on the brain for a while, so I ......
Alas!
I sighed, helpless for a while, no matter how remorseful, there is no regret medicine in this world.
My mother comforted my father with the coffin Liu, and made excuses to excuse me, saying that I was old and it was time to find a girl, and I had to say a family affair to let me settle down......
After comforting him, my father was relieved, and then my mother asked Coffin Liu, what should I do?
And listening to my mother's question, coffin Liu's face became ugly.
"Uncle Liu, my son was entangled by a female ghost, you must find a way to save him." My mother hurriedly begged for the coffin Liu, that anxious look, I couldn't wait to kneel down for the coffin Liu.
My dad also saw that this matter was not simple, he scolded me enough, and he also showed a worried face, and asked Coffin Liu to find a way to save me no matter what, and said that as long as he could save me, it would be as much as he wanted.
Coffin Liu waved his hand and said, "It's not a question of money or not, I'll think of a way to see if I can fool the female ghost over, if not, you have to ask for another master." ”
Next, the coffin Liu asked my mother to pierce a scarecrow, and he asked my father for my birthday, and then pricked my middle finger with a needle, squeezing out a small wine cap of middle finger blood.
I gasped in pain, and when I was puzzled, I saw the coffin Liu take out a small sheep's hair brush that he carried with him, dipped it in my blood, and then wrote my birthday on a yellow symbol, and drew a strange symbol underneath.
I didn't understand the meaning of this symbol, but I knew that the coffin Liu was helping me, so I didn't ask too much.
After the painting was finished, the coffin Liu told us to rest, saying that we would wait until my mother tied the scarecrow the next day.
It's not complicated to tie a scarecrow, but the material for this coffin Liu wants is very tricky, saying that the straw needs this year's fresh straw, and the adult doesn't want it, and when he ties it, he has to cut off a few strands of my hair and stuff it in.
My mother and I worked hard all morning, and finally tied up this scarecrow, painted the nose and eyes, and put on my clothes according to what Liu said.
From a distance, it really looks a little like me......
After dinner, the coffin Liu came, still carrying a smoked black bamboo basket in his hand, which contained ink fountain thread and a few white candles, and he didn't know what to do.
Coffin Liu saw the scarecrow, praised my mother's craftsmanship, and then pasted the yellow talisman drawn last night on the back of the scarecrow, and took out the ink fountain line, wrapped it around the scarecrow's body, and tied a knot.
I don't think that knot is simple, it's a bit like the "weaving flower basket" I played with when I was a child, it seems to be a trap......
After tying the knot, Coffin Liu carefully placed the scarecrow on the head of my bed.
After resting for a while, it was already half past eleven o'clock in the evening, and the coffin Liu told my parents to go out first, and then called me to the back room, and after smearing a handful of black pot bottoms on my face, he moved the rice jar from the hall to my bedside, lifted the lid of the rice jar, and let me get into the rice jar.
I was very curious, and asked the coffin Liu Cheng what he was doing with all these bells and whistles, and the coffin Liu said that it was so that the female ghost could not find me, and the scarecrow was used to replace me, and the coffin Liu set up a set on it, as long as the female ghost was fooled, she could be eliminated tonight.
I don't know much, but I know that he did it all for my good.
After I got into the rice jar, the coffin Liu said to me: "Xiaofan, that female ghost is coming later, you must not move, understand?" ”
I nodded.
Coffin Liu said again: "After the female ghost comes in and strips naked, you have to remember to stand up, grab the glutinous rice in the vat and smash her." ”
I nodded again.
The coffin Liu then put down the wooden lid with confidence, and at the same time left me a thumb-wide gap.
After going out, the coffin Liu took a dustpan of grass and wood ashes and sprinkled it on the ground, and inserted two white candles at the door, and then looked at me meaningfully and went out.
Not long after he went out, the air in the room suddenly dropped to an unbearable level, and I hid in the rice jar and shivered with my body in my arms.
Through the gap between the wooden lid and the rice jar, I saw two white candles by the door swaying, as if a mouth was blowing beside it.
I stared at the candle and panicked, and at that moment, I saw a series of footprints slowly emerging on the ground sprinkled with grass and wood ashes!
Looks like someone is stepping on it!
For a moment, I was completely choked for breath, and I heard my heart pounding in my chest.
Here she comes!
The female ghost is approaching me!
Step by step.
