Chapter 10: "Raising the Corpse" in the middle of the night
The crowd came running in a panic from a distance one after another, and it was also strange that the ashes with sparks that had been chasing all the way as if playing a game with the crowd just now suddenly stopped moving again. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info saw Grandma Tai standing in the middle of the village road one step at a time, and everyone suddenly had the backbone, and they were not as panicked as just now.
One dark night, a strange send-off, the people were already too frightened to look back, and now they saw the ashes stopped not far away, and no longer pursued them, and some of the brave dared to take a closer look at what was chasing them. There are also people who want to take a closer look when they see that there are many people, and they are drunk by their grandmother.
Only then did everyone realize that they only paid attention to the ashes that were chasing just now, but they didn't notice that there was a mirror hanging in front of Grandma Tai at some point, but it didn't look like a glass-inlaid mirror, although it looked vague, it even glowed like brass, and in this dark night, reflecting the glimmer of the moonlight, it was really a bit dazzling.
Some rushed to say: "Grandma, you are always hanging a demon mirror, right?" ”
Grandma Tai didn't have time to pay attention to these guys who looked broken now, thinking of them who were chased just now, and thought, if it weren't for this jade-faced bronze mirror, you wouldn't have been chased by this gray like a stuffy fly.
Under the illumination of the bronze mirror, everyone saw clearly, where is the gray, it is clearly a human figure composed of gray with sparks, standing upright, the appearance of a woman, the most terrifying thing is that there seems to be a nose and eyes, and then take a closer look, this is the appearance of a moth.
The people who took the stubble just now were so frightened that their faces turned pale when they saw this scene, and it was no wonder that in the courtyard behind them was a black wooden coffin with a small moth parked, and in front of them was the figure of a small moth composed of gray children, neither running nor hiding, who could not be afraid.
Grandma Tai called Grandma over and asked her to bring nine strong and bold young men to the courtyard to surround the coffin first, and then instructed the second son to take nine young daughters-in-law who had just married in the village to guard the gate of the hospital, and the rest of the people were led by the father of the second son to surround the grandmother to see the opportunity.
Now that I think about it, Grandma's arrangement is indeed proper, after all, the most important situation at the moment is the gray child who forms a human shape on the opposite side, and it is more certain that Grandma Tai will go out in person, and Grandma will take nine masculine young men to guard the coffin of the little moth, first, the corpse of the little moth at that time is not abnormal, and second, even if there is a change, the yang energy of the young men, coupled with the ability of grandma, can still resist for a while, and it can't be attacked on both sides.
So why call the moth an "enemy"? Because in this case, no matter how good the corpse of this monster was, how kind a person he was, as long as he entered the netherworld and could make waves, he would be called an enemy in the Tao.
asked the second son to take nine married daughters-in-law to guard the gate, and used an ancient method similar to fighting poison with poison. The death of the unmarried moth is a kind of death that is easy to have resentment, plus she is strangled by herself, which makes the resentment even more abundant, and the little daughters-in-law who have just passed the door belong to a period of extreme yin in a woman's life, so in the big black sky with nine women who are also yin to guard the door, you can attack and retreat.
The formation is set, and the current thing is to see what the gray child wants to do. Those gray children were obviously calmed by the jade-faced bronze mirror hanging on Grandma Tai's body, and they didn't have a trick for a while, but this time didn't stop, and Grandma Tai looked at it as if she was waiting for a certain time.
In this gap, Grandma Tai told the father of the second son to let him inform everyone that no matter what happened today, everyone present should not go home, because there are children and elderly people at home, and it is not good to bring dirty things, besides, people are also needed here now.
Time passed little by little, and the time was about to come, and the two sides confronted each other like this. Grandma looked at the sky, the big star suddenly appeared, just when the second star loomed, the humanoid fire in front of him suddenly seemed to show weakness, not only stopped, but also crumbling, just now the humanoid shape that was very much like a moth, gradually turned into a fire, suddenly out of thin air a gust of wind, the pile of gray with sparks in vain turned into the appearance of bees, bypassing the irradiation range of the bronze mirror, rushing straight to the yard.
Presumably the appearance of being able to become a bee is related to the fact that the little moth put bees every day before his death, like this kind of obsessive soul, he can remember some things that are deeply impressed in his life, except for Xiao Jing, I am afraid that this bee is the thing that the little moth remembers the most in his life.
Thanks to Grandma's arrangement, when the fire bee was about to rush in from the gate of the yard, it was strange to say, the nine little daughters-in-law holding hands in front of the door, I don't know what the grandmother taught them, they all closed their eyes, and there were words in their mouths, not to mention, it really worked, I saw that in the dark night, in front of the gate of the yard, there was suddenly a row of colorful lights, blocking the way of the fire bees.
Seeing that the main gate of the courtyard could not enter, the fire bee began to detour again, bypassing from the gatehouse, pointing directly to the black wooden coffin in the courtyard, but where did it know, grandma had already taken precautions, under the command of grandma, nine young strong men had already lined up, one of the strongest pressed the head of the coffin lid, the other pressed the coffin tail, and two people on both sides of the coffin held down the coffin, and the remaining three people were arranged in front and back arrows, each holding a thing in their hands, that is, the treasures that grandma had just seen that the situation was not good, and placed around the black wooden coffin.
I saw a man holding Changming wax, the wax heart was shining, and if I looked closely, it was like an old monk sitting in it and chanting scriptures in the lit beating flame.
The other person held a shiny silver chain in his hand, and then looked at the chain head was a yellow, orange and orange lock, is this the famous soul lock on the rivers and lakes? This is a later story, so I won't go into detail for the time being.
Besides, the young man who started the battle in front of the battle was holding a blackened mud pot in his hand, which showed that this mud basin was old enough, and then looked at the mud pot, a golden indescribable big insect was staring at the fire bee in the air.
Grandma said this, I suddenly felt that she said that the appearance of this big insect is so familiar, but I can't remember, I was young at that time, and I was also a playful age, and I forgot many things after a while.
At my urging, the grandmother who was sitting on the horse by the stove continued to speak, and saw that the fire bee pounced on the black wooden coffin, and what was even more terrifying was that the coffin lid that had been held down by six strong men was drilled into a gap by something, and as the gap became larger and larger, the sharp and thin thing became longer, and the rune paper sticking to the coffin was also pried up little by little, and some sharp eyes could see that the nails that poked out of the coffin were human fingernails, but how could there be such long nails, braving the cold light, the little moth was going to raise the corpse.
Grandma saw that Grandma hadn't had time to come in from outside the hospital, but looking at the situation, it was really critical, although a few young men next to the coffin were strong, but where had they seen this meeting, and some of their faces were not human, and they even looked like they wanted to run.
Fortunately, the brother in front of the coffin didn't notice the movement of the coffin, so he was very determined, because he was holding a magic weapon in his hand, and he probably gave himself courage, and he looked very majestic, but how did they know that the coffin behind them had begun to raise corpses.
Grandma knew that she couldn't wait any longer, and although she wasn't sure if she could command the golden worm, she could only try, so she stretched out her left hand and put her two fingers together, pointing at the young man in the front row holding the golden worm in the mud pot, muttering something in his mouth.
Someone asked, isn't it a man on the left and a woman on the right? Grandma should stretch out her right hand, you must know that this is not a warlock telling fortune, this is a practice in the suppression of corpses, at this time, the left is yang, the right is yin, the left is up, the right is down, you can only use your left hand, this is the least common sense.
It seems that grandma has learned a lot of things in front of and behind her in this life, and when she pointed down, she saw that the golden worm in the mud pot rose out of thin air, and she grew several inches between her words, and her sharp teeth poked out at some point, waving her front paws like knives and pounced on the fire bee violently.
All of a sudden, the fire bee was rushed by the golden bug, and immediately scattered into a pile from the air and fell to the ground, and in an instant the spark gradually extinguished, and with the extinguishing of the spark, only to hear a snap, the coffin lid that had been pried up by the long nails just now was suddenly tightly covered again.
That's success! That's success! That's success! Important things to say three times :) Oye! Grandma successfully prevented a corpse when Grandma hadn't come in yet, but the cold sweat was also direct. At this time, the three stars in the sky had already risen, the night had changed from pitch black to inky blue, and the white of the fish belly seemed to be faintly tossing and turning in the east.
Grandma's legs and feet are not as good as when she was young, but it is not slow to come in this half a day, according to grandma's opinion, grandma Tai wants to try grandma's Taoism, after all, she is more than eighty years old, and no one in this village can control the change of yin and yang, she wants to leave this eternal mastery, so that this traditional skill can be passed on, and these things, only in practice can increase skills, not on paper can be done.
Since it's successful, let's collect the law, but when Grandma Tai packed up the magic weapons one by one, why couldn't the golden worms be found? The young man still had sharp eyes and shouted, "Grandma, the golden worm is on the coffin lid!" ”
When Grandma Tai looked closer, tears almost fell out, only to see that the golden insect had changed back to its original size, but it was still shining with golden light, but this light was getting smaller and weaker little by little, and finally it really became a meat worm, and then looked up at Grandma Tai affectionately, and lowered her head heavily.
Grandma can clearly see that Grandma's tears burst out of her eyes in an instant, but she quickly wiped them off, this is what she does, there are feelings, but you can't take feelings too seriously, yin and yang are impermanent, the world is unpredictable, just like this bug, following herself for decades, a little bit of refining into this golden bug, helping her avoid how many difficulties, and how many sneaky demons have fallen, but after all, it is old, today it used all its strength to lower the little moth's deceptive corpse, but he also exhausted all his mana, with the disappearance of mana, The worm reverted to its childly appearance, and lay quietly on the lid of the coffin, and passed away in a heavy state.
Grandma Tai picked it up distressedly, wrapped it in a red cloth and wrapped it in a red cloth, wrapped it and wrapped it in her arms, she wanted to put it in the closest place to herself, so that the hot heart of righteousness in the world was close to each other!
The morning sun in the east slowly rose, and the people in the courtyard couldn't believe what they had seen and done this night, and they all looked very tired, but Grandma Tai broke the silence: "The corpse of this little moth should be dealt with quickly, where did she get such a deep resentment?" ”
The father and mother of the second son hurriedly came over, and muttered to the grandmother and the grandmother, and they suddenly realized that in this case, the grandmother said that it was not possible to cremate after the funeral like dealing with ordinary corpses, and I am afraid that the crematorium really can't deal with it.
At that time, the dead were basically cremated, that is, it was trouble-free and hygienic, but there were still some places in the countryside where it was safe to enter the ground, so burials also happened from time to time.
Grandma Tai called several old people who were in charge of the village together and said: "Little Moth, this child's grievances are too deep, and the general burial is afraid of being unfavorable, and we can't bring this resentful soul to the crematorium, we can't harm people, I think the only thing we can do is to burn the corpse to vent our grievances!" "But there's one more crucial thing to do before that......
