Chapter Ninety-One: The Coffin
Thick Mo let go of the hand that was on my shoulder and walked to the door, his back to me. I don't know why I'm a little sad, but the spotted yellow snake had a relationship with that snake in his previous life, even a lover, and my birth indirectly killed his lover, in this life he thought I was the reincarnation of that snake, and helped me a lot, I owe him, I should say sorry and thank you to him.
In fact, I want to tell Nong Mo that I want to be an ordinary person, because my relatives are ordinary people, my grandmother, uncle, parents, I can't give up any of them, and him, I want to cultivate the Tao, and I have cultivated, I am a snake demon, he will arrest me, I can't cultivate, I can't do it, I am a snake demon, he will arrest me, I can't cultivate, I am a snake demon, he is an ordinary person, we can't play together anymore, and Fei Dongxi's girl, she doesn't know anything about me, If you know that I am a snake demon in the future, you must not be scared to death.
Although it is very convenient for me to take things now, but God allows us to have hands and feet, which are to be used, not to be decorated, with the tongue of the snake demon, it makes me feel that my hands are redundant, and I can't control the strength, the probability of doing bad things is relatively large, and if there is no tail again, it will be even more troublesome. To sum up, I want to completely get rid of the snake spirit, get rid of this bad luck, and become an ordinary person! But it doesn't matter if I want to know who the blob is.
Lu'er's red lips opened slightly, "Brother Spotted is ......" Her eyes suddenly turned, and she turned several times before stopping, "Sister Xuanzi, Brother Spotted won't let me say it, he said that the heavenly machine wants you to understand it yourself, and I can't reveal it." β
"Huh? How can there be such a thing? "I was speechless and asked the heavens! It's a heavenly machine again! But it's not my chance! It's the serpent's, and this rule doesn't bind me! "Lu'er, your Spotted brother was just around, wasn't he?"
She shook her head aggrievedly, and poked her fingers together, "It turns out that Brother Spotted has already placed a spell on me, and he knows that I will say it." β
"What if the sky is leaked?" From the in-laws of the land to the uncle who predicts the future, and then to the white-haired grandmother, they all say that the heavenly machine, the predicted uncle said it, and then he braided his hair, is it really so strict?
Lu'er pouted, "I don't know." Suddenly, her eyes lit up again, and her hands clapped together, "Why don't I tell you about your past life with Brother Spotted?" β
Thick Mo turned around again from the door and walked to the table, Lu'er stared at him as he moved, he touched the water bottle in his hand, "I'll just pour tea and drink, you continue." β
"No, I don't want to know." I smiled and said, "I'm not her." Thick ink put the teacup down again.
"What's wrong with you, you're Sister Xuanzi! It's exactly the same as in the previous life! Even the sound is the same! She writhed unhappily, and her skin began to turn green, and there were a little markings, and I remembered that one day I had markings on my body, but they were black and colorful.
"Oh, it's hard to say now, when I find your Spotted brother myself, I'll tell him the truth myself! Don't get excited. "I have something to ask you, when will my skin have snake spots?" β
"Sister Xuanzi, are you joking? You taught me how to cultivate before! You are so profound, how can I know, you can go and ask Brother Spotted, he knows you very well. She became very excited again, and her thick hand took the teacup again, so that it was urgent to find the spot! I obey my heart and liver, if the spotted yellow snake knows the truth and is too sad to kill me, should I be bitten to death by him, or will I be thrown to death by his tail?
"By the way, about the small porcelain vase, tell me quickly!" I can't wait to find out.
"I don't know who its owner is, my task is to steal it, Brother Spotted told me, you are in danger, so I went to steal it, but the first time you found out, I slipped away, but the second time I stole outside, but you found it again, I ran away, and the small porcelain bottle was thrown there, and when I visited your house again, I accidentally found that there was also one in your house, so I broke it and dragged it away by the way, and I didn't expect to bump into you taking a bath......" As soon as she said about bathing, I blushed, and I was ashamed of the big hair, I went to see the thick ink, his face was also gloriously red, what is he red, it is me who is ashamed.
"Lu'er, the strange thing that Siyuan experienced, you did it." To divert the awkward topic, I asked.
Her white face flushed, "Hmm. "The two hands are poking at each other again, I'm embarrassed, the contemporary Lei Feng who does good deeds without leaving a name!
"Oh~ What did you just say, I'm not the same as your sister Xuanzi. Then I'll tell Siyuan that he has a snail girl in his house, alas, I don't know if he will think that shemales have different paths or something. "Under the long and curly eyelashes, a pair of eyes reveal cunning, he is counterattacking! For this kind of thick ink, you choke me once, I am not in a hurry, find the right time to choke you to death, I express my deep feelings, under his long-term haze rule, can still live so sunny, is it easy for me.
"No way!" Although thick ink said this, he didn't have the slightest intention of getting up, according to my long-term observation, what he just said was purely a bargaining chip, or just a bluffing smoke bomb, and he didn't intend to do it.
But how could Lu'er have so many of my devastating experiences, she was so simple, she immediately rushed to the two doors, and guarded the door, "Don't! Don't sue him! "Huh? Sue sΓΉ what's wrong with him? Doesn't he accept that I'm a snake? It's quite bearable.
"Oh? Why not let say? "Thick ink asked this question on my behalf.
Lu'er said hesitantly: "Because, because, I'm afraid that Siyuan won't accept help, he is so, so hardworking, so kind, and treats me so well, if he knows that he has been helped by me, how can he save face." β
"Really?" Thick ink raised his eyebrows, people who are suspicious are short-lived! No wonder you want to cultivate the Tao!
"That's right! Don't sue him! Lu'er nodded violently.
"Why would I do this?" Thick ink smiling, yes, that's right, he's smiling! With contemptuous eyes and the corners of his mouth hanging to the side, isn't this a bad smile? This kid, who did you learn from?
"You, you make a condition!" She waved her hand, "Do you want gold, silver, jewelry, or delicacies from the mountains and seas?" But my Taoism is limited, and I don't have much, so you can't open your mouth! β
"I and your sister Xuanzi are relatives, my only condition is that you are not allowed to push me away from your sister Xuanzi in the future, I am a Taoist priest, responsible for protecting her, it is too far away and unsafe, in other words, although I disdain to subdue some little demons, but if it is too much to obtrusion......"
"Sister Xuanzi!" Lu'er ran up to me, grabbed me by the arm and cried, "He's a bad guy." β
I twisted the ink, "Don't scare the kids!" β
"Kid, she's much older than you!" Thick ink laughed.
"Sister Xuan, Brother Nongmo, there are a lot of Taoist priests from a family in front of you, it is estimated that Mrs. Chen is what's wrong, do you want to go and see?" Siyuan shouted outside the door, even life is in the water, I and Nong Mo glanced at each other, it is better to come early than to come by coincidence, there is no need to inquire, just right.
When I think of Lu'er, she has turned into a little green snake, obediently writhing at my feet.
I picked up Lu'er and put it in the bag of clothes, well, let's go back and give it to Siyuan.
The rain outside has stopped, the sky is starting to clear, this is the summer rain, I like this feeling, bathed in the sunshine after the rain, there is always a faint sense of satisfaction. We followed Siyuan to the door of Mrs. Chen's house, the two families were not far apart, and we could see the coffin at the door of their house at a glance.
The coffin is brand new, the long black coffin is placed at the door, I am a little cautious when I see it, I have never seen a coffin, and now people are cremated when they die, what do you want a coffin for? Could it be that Mrs. Chen has passed away? I didn't hear the firecrackers either, so I couldn't figure it out.
Many villagers rushed to hear the news, gathered in the big cement open space in front of their house, and looked closer, in addition to the onlookers of the villagers, there was a row of people standing at the door of his house, there were adults and children, and in front of a row of people sat a thin old lady, the old lady was full of silver hair, her face was full of wrinkles, and a pair of sunken eyes looked at the people around her, this qiΔ was in line with the appearance of a centenarian, but the mouth that should have been deflated was fully propped up, this should be Mrs. Chen! Isn't it that he hasn't died, what are you carrying a coffin for?
When everyone was whispering, there was a crashing sound in the room, no, it was the wind chimes, a series, Siyuan said that many Taoist priests, should not be inside, sure enough, with the string of sounds, six Taoist priests came out of the room, wearing different clothes, it seems that it is not a family, there are not enough Taoist priests within a radius of a hundred miles, how much money does it cost to get together, "thick ink, this is really a ghost?" β
"Let's see, I don't feel anything unusual." His eyes were fixed on the Taoist priests.
"Sister Xuan, their family has been in trouble for a while, and Mrs. Chen's teeth have grown for a year." Siyuan whispered to me, it's been a year, does that still have anything to do with moving graves? Could it be that what kind of devil can predict?
The Taoist priest circled around the coffin, all stopped, and among the rows of people standing at the door, a seventy or eighty-year-old grandfather walked out, he squatted down and said something under Mrs. Chen's knees, then stood up and arched his hand to everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen, today is my old mother's big day, please come and witness it together." β
Siyuan said: "Mrs. Chen's youngest son. β
He pointed to the coffin, "This is a high-quality coffin, I spent a long time asking someone to build it, and the old mother said that she was not used to being buried in the fire, it was too impersonal, so we buried her in the future." β
