I immediately walked out of the counter to meet him, and I wanted to ask him a full stomach.

For example, the affairs of the Feng family, such as why he left me alone on the mountain, and what is the plot of the ghost locust planted on the grave.

Compared with the unknown outsider Huang Mao, Chen Laogen is more worthy of trust.

But Chen Laogen blocked me back with a word, he said: "Don't say anything, don't ask anything, follow me." With that, he turned around and left.

I choked up, so I had to chase after me.

Chen Laogen's footsteps were very fast, and he left the polder after a while, in a hurry.

After leaving the polder, he went all the way to the south, and I suddenly understood that he was going to Li's house. Li Qishan's family, who died of a stroke yesterday afternoon, is just south of the polder, a three-to-five-mile road.

Soon we arrived at Li's house, and the Li family immediately greeted Chen Laogen when they saw him, and the person in charge was Li Qishan's eldest son, named Li Gensheng, who had done business with me, so he knew each other.

I keenly noticed that the Li family's faces were wrong, not only them, but also some of the neighbors in the township who came to help were far away from the spirit shed, and seemed to be taboo about something.

Li Gensheng's complexion was not very good-looking, and said, "Uncle Chen, you can come, my father refuses to close his eyes, and I bother you to caress him." ”

My heart jumped, the dead do not close their eyes is a funeral trouble; This is called death without turning a blind eye, there is no way to bury it, and if you are forced to bury it, something will happen.

After Li Gensheng finished speaking, he made a big gift, and the rest of the Li family followed suit, which was much more polite than the Feng family.

"Take me to see it."

Chen Laogen nodded, at this time the sun was just setting, he glanced at the mountain to the west, and put away the big black umbrella that was opened.

After that, the Li family entered the mourning shed with us, and there was a coffin inside, and Li Qishan was lying on a door panel, covered with corpse cloth, and wearing a pair of brand-new black cloth shoes on his feet.

My heart tightened slightly, the person who went to the door of my store last night was indeed him, and I was not mistaken.

Chen Laogen stepped forward and slowly lifted the corpse cloth on his head, Li Qishan was lying there, his mouth open, his eyes were round, and there was a hint of struggle in his slightly cloudy gaze. The strange thing is that he has been dead for a day, and there are not many corpse spots on his face.

Chen Laogen frowned slightly, muttered for a while, and suddenly said to me: "You come to the coffin!" ”

"Me?"

I was stunned for a moment, and I couldn't help but feel numb after reacting, as the old saying goes, if you don't look at death, there will be resentment, and he has clearly deceived the corpse last night, evil nature.

Chen Laogen didn't answer me, but turned to Li Gensheng's family: "Kneel, bow three times and knock nine times, cry spirit!" ”

After speaking, he himself began to recite the words, and the Li family naturally did so, crying and kneeling down; I had no choice, so I stepped forward and carefully carried Li Qishan's body up.

But this lift surprised me, it was so heavy that I couldn't lift it at all, like a piece of iron. I instinctively tried my best, but the corpse remained still.

"Can't lift it!" I cried out, my heart beating wildly, something was wrong with the corpse.

Chen Laogen's face changed, and he immediately shouted at the corpse: "Li Qishan, your life is over, it's time to go to the underworld to be reincarnated, if there is something unfinished, you can dream of your family in the first seven nights, how can you bear it with such a posture?!" ”

The roar was rolling and shaking the eardrums. The Li family was all panicked and kowtowed.

Li Gensheng's scalp turned red, and he cried and said: "Dad, you can go safely, if you have unfulfilled wishes, even if you give your dream to your son, your son will definitely do it for you, please, please......"

It's also strange to say, after he finished speaking, Li Qishan's corpse suddenly became lighter, so that I didn't have time to retract my strength, and I stumbled back and stared.

"Steady, the golden body can't fall to the ground!" Chen Laogen's face changed greatly, and the Li family also screamed in fright.

I was so dangerous that I almost fell, and I couldn't help but sweat in white hair, according to the rules of burial in the countryside, whether it is a corpse or a coffin, once it is out of the ground, it must not fall to the ground before the burial; Otherwise, you have to be buried where it falls.

This is the front yard of the Li family, and if the body falls here, the Li family will not have to tear me up.

I exhaled secretly and slowly put Li Qishan's body into the coffin.

Chen Laogen stepped forward, "Li Qishan, no matter what wishes you have in this life, it has nothing to do with you, people go out and give future generations a peace." ”

After speaking, he read the words again in his mouth, speaking faster than before, and after reading for a while, he stretched out his hand and slowly wiped it on Li Qishan's eyes.

Li Qishan's eyelids closed, but before Chen Laogen's hand was completely withdrawn, his eyes actually opened again.

Chen Laogen's face changed, and his brows suddenly wrinkled into Sichuan characters, and when the Li family saw this, they began to cry loudly again, asking Li Qishan to leave with peace of mind.

Chen Laogen looked at me and said, "You can try it." ”

"Me?" My eyes widened, and I didn't react; What are you kidding, I'm not a mage.

"Quick!" Chen Laogen cannot be questioned.

I had no choice but to comply, trembling and stretching out my hand and wiping it on Li Qishan's eyelids.

It worked, it was closed, and it didn't open again.

It baffles me, what is this? Chen Laogen can't do it, I'm going backwards?

Chen Laogen was thoughtful, but didn't say anything, but turned his head to the Li family and said: "Today is still the same as yesterday, no one is allowed to keep vigil, no matter what you hear at night, don't look out, let alone go out to open the door, tomorrow on the three poles will go up the mountain to be buried, go." ”

The Li family thanked them for their kindness and hurriedly responded, and then went out to make arrangements.

After a few clicks, the people who came to help from outside left, and the Li family also entered the house and closed the door, leaving me and Chen Laogen in the entire huge front yard and spirit shed.

Seeing this, I somewhat understood, no wonder no one saw Li Qishan's corpse last night, it turned out that no one kept vigil. But then again, because of the recent incident of Feng Daniu's daughter-in-law being bitten to death, the whole township is panicked, all kinds of rumors are flying all over the sky, and no one dares to stay outside at night.

"Uncle, shall we come back tomorrow?" I asked, looked around, and felt uneasy.

"We keep vigil." Chen Laogen said.

I was startled and hurriedly said, "Can ...... It's not safe at night. "He told me not to go out at night, let alone into the mountains; Moreover, Feng Deliang and Feng Daniu's daughter-in-law still don't know what the situation is.

"There are some things that should be faced, or you have to face them, otherwise the more you dodge, the more troublesome it will be." Chen Laogen said meaningfully.

I was speechless, so I had to say yes, he knew how to do it, and he had the final say.

After thinking about it, I was going to start asking about the previous matter, but Chen Laogen seemed to see what I was thinking, and said: "If you have any questions, hold back, this is not the place to talk about things, burn paper money, don't let the brazier and the everlasting lamp go out." ”

I choked on the words in my throat and felt very uncomfortable, but I had no choice but to take out the paper money prepared next to me, squat on the ground and burn it a little bit.

Chen Laogen sat behind me with a stool, without saying a word, quiet like a sculpture, and I couldn't even feel his breath.

By this time, it was getting dark.

There is a large temperature difference between day and night in the mountains, and the sultry air between heaven and earth begins to gradually dissipate, and the night is as cold as water.

Looking back at Chen Laogen, he sat on the stool half-squinted, as if he was asleep.

Soon, the clock was eleven o'clock, and midnight was approaching.

I'm starting to get nervous, and if something happens, the biggest chance is from now.

"Whew!"

It was too late, and a gust of wind suddenly poured in from outside the mourning shed without warning, like a cold wind coming out of the air conditioner, which gave me goosebumps all over my body.

Immediately afterwards, there was a strange sound from inside the coffin of "Ho Ho Ho Ho ......", like the sound of someone being choked by the throat and desperately inhaling.

"Well!"

My frightened hands shook, and all the paper money fell to the ground, and I shrank backwards.

With a bang, I knocked something down, and when I reached out, it was a bench.

I turned my head violently, and suddenly the hairs on my whole body exploded in fright!

Chen Laogen is gone!

"Fuck me!" My mind was blank, this most critical moment Chen Laogen was gone, and he was still there a few minutes ago.

Then something frightened me even more; Li Qishan suddenly sat up from the coffin.

His eyes opened, his eyeballs rolled up, only to see the whites of his eyes but not the black pupils, and there was a "ho-ho-ho" sound in his throat.

"Well, help!!"

I screamed and desperately retreated, trying to get up and run, but my legs didn't obey me, and I didn't have any strength at all.

No one responded to my screams, Chen Laogen was gone, and the Li family might be able to hear it, but they wouldn't come out.

I turned around and crawled out desperately, and when I climbed out of the spirit shed and turned back, Li Qishan actually got out of the coffin, stretched out his hand, just like the zombie in the zombie movie, and walked towards me with teeth and claws.

Its nails were sharp, as sharp as a blade, and glowed with a faint cold glow.

I collapsed on the ground and became a puddle of mud, watching Li Qishan walk towards me step by step, but I didn't have any strength. He was desperately shouting in his head to run, but his legs didn't listen to the command.

Soon Li Qishan walked less than three steps away from me.

"Leizi!"

Just as he was about to pounce, a loud roar came from behind.

As soon as I heard it, a trace of strength gushed out of my body, it was Cao Nan's voice!!

With this little strength, I climbed a few steps, just in time to see Cao Nan and Huang Mao rushing towards me frantically.

Cao Nan took the lead, rushed up and dragged me out for more than a dozen steps, narrowly avoiding Li Qishan.

Then Huang Mao also rushed up, pointing at Li Qishan with one hand and one mouth...... After a pause for two seconds, he was stunned, then turned back to me and asked Cao Nan and me, "What's his name?" ”

"Li Qishan!" Cao Nan yelled for me.

Huang Mao roared at this time: "Li Qishan, you are dead, lie down!" ”

This roar was rolling, like thunder, and it was even a little more majestic and loud than Chen Laogen.
