Following Uncle Kong's rhythm, the three of us worked hard at the same time, and finally pried the heavy coffin lid aside. [Ran^Text^Library] []. []. [>

The moment the lid of the coffin opened, I hurriedly glanced into the coffin, however, to my surprise, the coffin was empty, only a blue gold velvet quilt and a black pillow were laid out, and some clothes and other small items were placed on the edge of the coffin, which should have been used by my uncle during his lifetime.

Looking at the empty coffin, Zhang Dali was stunned, "Uncle!" Zhang Dali stared at the empty coffin and exclaimed, as if he felt that all this was a little incredible.

Uncle Kong and I looked at each other for a while, and Uncle Kong's expression was very calm, as if he had expected this result a long time ago, so Uncle Kong didn't seem so surprised.

I saw Uncle Kong squatting down, carefully looking around the coffin, the coffin should have been neatly laid out bedding was turned over and scattered, the coffin was placed on the side of the uncle some daily necessities, drinking iron cups, smoking pots, tobacco bags, chopsticks and some clothes, this is a folk custom, to pack all the favorite things and commonly used things of the dead in their lives to accompany the burial, it is convenient for people to continue to use in the underworld.

Suddenly, Uncle Kong's eyes stared at the tail of the coffin and did not move, and the expression on his face became more and more confused, I hurriedly followed Uncle Kong's gaze, and there was a pile of black clothes stacked at one end of the coffin, like a shroud, and there were two pairs of cloth shoes next to the shroud, one pair was gray, and the other pair was bright red, and the red upper was embroidered with various flower and grass patterns

This...... This is clearly a pair of women's embroidered shoes!! However, how could there be a pair of women's embroidered shoes in my uncle's coffin! Uncle can't use this thing when he goes to the underworld!

Uncle Kong hurriedly moved to the end of the coffin, squatted down and took a lot of effort to bring the red embroidered shoes up from the coffin.

Zhang Dali and I also hurriedly surrounded him.

Like other clothes in the coffin, the embroidered shoes in Uncle Kong's hand look like a pair of newly made shoes, there is no trace of dust on the upper, and the bright color and exquisite embroidery imply that its owner must be a woman who loves beauty, Uncle Kong measured the size of these shoes with his palm, which is only a little longer than Uncle Kong's palm, which once again proves that these shoes are indeed tailor-made for women.

"How can there be a pair of women's shoes in my uncle's coffin? Could it be that someone misplaced? Looking at the embroidered shoes, I asked, puzzled.

"Impossible, we pay the most attention to the burial of the ancestors here, everything in the coffin must be cautious and cautious, the clothes, shoes, quilts, and sheets in the coffin must be new, and they must be placed neatly, almost all the people in the family came back when the uncle helped the funeral, and everyone could not be so careless to put a pair of women's shoes in it!" Zhang Dali hurriedly denied it.

Uncle Kong nodded, expressing his agreement with Zhang Dali's statement.

"Then how did these shoes end up in my uncle's coffin?" I wondered.

Uncle Kong didn't answer me directly, but slowly turned the embroidered shoes over so that the soles were facing up, and when we saw the soles of the shoes, we were all surprised, because the upper of the shoes looked clean, and there was a layer of gray-brown dirt standing on the soles.

I hurriedly took a closer look, and suddenly remembered, isn't the color of this soil exactly the same as the color of the bloody soil in the courtyard? Don't......

"How so...... Don't...... That footprint in the yard...... It was the ...... left by these shoes" Zhang Dali immediately recognized where the blood on the soles of the shoes came from.

I carefully recalled the pair of shoe prints I saw last night, which was flat and had no pattern, which was completely in line with this pair of embroidered shoes, because this pair of embroidered shoes was sewn with handmade fabric, and the sole was also cloth, there was no pattern at all, and the footprints were much smaller than Zhang Dali's footprints, and the marks left on the ground were far less deep than Zhang Dali's footprints, just a faint layer, which was also completely in line with the characteristics of this pair of embroidered shoes.

"Could this be it?!" Uncle Kong suddenly frowned and said.

“？！” Zhang Dali and I shouted together, I had never heard Uncle Kong mention this term before.

"Uncle Kong, what is it?" I asked hurriedly.

"To be honest, I haven't seen it either, but I've heard the master mention it, and when I saw this scene today, I just felt that it was a little similar to what the master said, so I speculated that this might be. Generally speaking, people will be reincarnated after death, but some people die unexpectedly, and their ghosts are unable to enter the reincarnation of the underworld, such as those who died in car accidents, those who fell from the height of the fall, drowned, etc., these ghosts must find a substitute ghost if they want to be reincarnated, that is, after killing a living person with the same death method through temptation, he can go to the Yin Cao to reincarnate, but not all ghosts are so eager to be reincarnated, on the contrary, some ghosts do not want to enter the Yin Cao reincarnation, For some reason, they want to continue to stay at the transition between the two worlds of yin and yang to complete their unfinished wishes, however, nature has laws, just like there are births, old age, sickness and death in the yang world, and there are also reincarnation superbirths in the underworld, if there is no special reason, all the ghosts must report to the yin cao within a certain period of time after death, if this period has not yet arrived, then there will be yin cha to lock the soul, in order to avoid the yin cha lock soul, these ghosts must find a scapegoat, and all the sins in front of them will be inherited to this scapegoat, Let the scapegoat go to the Yin Cao to accept the reincarnation of reward and punishment on his behalf, so that he can permanently stay at the junction of Yin and Yang without the jurisdiction of the Yin Cao, and the scapegoat they are looking for is often not a living person, but the ghost of a person who has just died, because these ghosts have just left the yang world, and it is easiest to be taken captive as a scapegoat! This kind of behavior between ghosts is called the act of passing on the sins of the previous life, and after that, the ghost will leave an item of its own place to indicate that the new ghost has been captured, and it also has the meaning of warning other ghosts not to invade or rob again! Uncle Kong told me eloquently.

Zhang Dali and I were stunned after hearing this, we had only heard that there were living people in prison for others, but I didn't expect that after this death, there was also a saying that people would go to the underworld to pay for their crimes.

"Uncle Kong...... What do you mean...... What did my uncle capture captive? Zhang Dali hurriedly asked.

Uncle Kong said uncertainly, "I haven't seen what is going on, but I heard the master say that there is such a thing, and today I see this scene is a bit like the scene described by the master, so I am just a guess!" ”

"I think it's probably so! Think about what Xiaofei said last night...... He went to that thing and chained his uncle, who stood there without saying a word and watched Xiao Fei just cry silently. This must be that thing caught the uncle, and wanted the uncle to mention him to the Yin Cao to atone for his sins, the uncle should have come to see Xiao Fei last night, and Xiao Fei hurt the most when his uncle was alive, he must have come to see Xiao Fei without worrying about Xiao Fei! Zhang Dali said excitedly.
