111 Midnight Terror
111 Midnight Terror
The sons seemed to be true when they heard what he said, and they looked at each other for a while, not knowing whether it was true or not. After a little discussion with each other, they sent one of their youngest sons to inspect it.
The little son walked to the coffin and looked, and there was indeed a small hole the size of a copper coin on the wooden board in the middle of the front, exactly the same as what the Taoist priest said, and the coffin was obviously intact when the old father was carried into the burial, and suddenly the hole did not know when it appeared, and even they did not find it. He was amazed, so he hurried out to tell his brothers.
The other sons outside were shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly rushed back to the mourning hall to inspect, and when they saw that it was indeed the same as what their younger brother said, several of them couldn't help but look confused. After being stunned for a while, he remembered what the Taoist priest said, so he hurriedly asked the servant to invite the Taoist priest in.
When the Taoist priest came in and sat down in the hall, the sons respectfully brought tea and water, and then asked the chief with sincere fear.
The Taoist priest said slowly: "This corpse has sucked the essence of the sun and the moon by mistake, and it has become the climate for a long time, and tomorrow this demon will come out of the coffin, although he will transform into your father's appearance, but in fact he is no longer your father, he will call the names of all the people close to him, but all of you must not agree, otherwise you will definitely die, remember to remember!" After hearing this, the sons couldn't help but feel that this matter was too absurd, so their faces were still a little suspicious.
Seeing that they were like this, the Taoist priest couldn't say much, so he stood up and took his leave, telling them if they needed help as he left. You can find him at the Taoist temple outside the city. After the Taoist priest left, several people discussed with each other, although the matter seemed absurd. But just in case, let the whole family except for the children live in the mourning hall to guard the spirit, as the so-called people are bold, and let the servants prepare more sticks, knives and guns, and then wait and see what happens, in case it is really as the Taoist priest said, everyone also has a response to each other, so all the servants were ordered to prepare all kinds of weapons. Stayed in the mourning hall.
On the second watch that night, the sky suddenly flashed, thundered, and the wind blew. All the people were scared and did not dare to sleep in peace. They lit candles and stood guard in the mourning hall, and everyone's hearts hung in the air, and they were extremely nervous.
When the time was approaching, everyone's hearts began to feel a little uneasy. A few sons are even more like you, look at me, I look at you. I don't know if what the priest said is true. At this moment, several people suddenly heard a rustling sound from the coffin, like the sound of clothes rubbing, followed by a slight knocking sound, as if something in the coffin was about to break out of the coffin.
Everyone couldn't help but turn pale and scatter, glanced at each other, and shouted like birds and beasts scattered, running. Hidden, the mourning hall was empty in an instant, and there was no one left. A few servants ran slowly, so they had to hide under the pillars at the entrance of the mourning hall and pretend to be dead. Then I heard the sound of the coffin lid falling, the two bold servants opened their eyes slightly, and secretly looked at them with the corner of their eyes, only to see that under the flickering candlelight of the mourning hall, one person had sat up from the coffin, and at this time it happened that a lightning bolt crossed the mourning hall, and it was as bright as day in an instant, and the person in the coffin was their deceased master, still wearing the clothes of the burial, and the wide sleeved robe fluttered in the wind, only to see that his face was sallow, his eyes were white, and there was no expression on his face.
Seeing this, one servant was so frightened that he fainted immediately, and the other bold one was trembling like chaff, and did not dare to move.
After seeing the master slowly sit up from the coffin, he first turned his head slowly and took a closer look at the entire mourning hall, and then he got up and walked out slowly, and then walked into the room where he lived before his death, sitting motionless in the silk tent on the bed.
When everyone was scared half to death, they suddenly heard a terrible voice coming from the bedroom, everyone listened carefully, it seemed to be the name of the eldest son, fortunately there was a Taoist priest before, everyone hid in their room and held their breath and did not say a word.
I only heard this terrible voice from the eldest son to the youngest son, from the grandson to the granddaughter, from the old lady to the little daughter-in-law, and none of them were left behind. Fortunately, all the children were sent away in advance, and the rest of the people were warned by the Taoist priest, and at this time, everyone was dizzy and afraid, but no one made a sound.
After half a ring, the terrible voice that could only be heard began to call the names of the servants again, from Zhang San to Li Si to Wang Wu. At that time, there was a servant who was doing rough work in the family because he was stupid, and he was in a daze all day long, and when his name was called, he was sleeping in a daze, and suddenly heard the old man call his name, and he involuntarily agreed.
Hearing someone answer, the whole house suddenly fell silent, and the owner stopped calling people. After half a pillar of incense, he suddenly got off the bed, slowly walked back to the mourning hall, glanced left and right, and still got into the coffin and lay down.
At this time, most of the candles in the mourning hall had been blown out, and the candlelight shone on the pitch-black coffin and the empty mourning hall, and the whole room was as silent as death, only the sound of the storm came from outside. Everyone held their breath and remained motionless, feeling that the night was too long, and they were all looking forward to the dawn coming soon.
When the next day dawn rooster crows three times every day, a group of frightened people from their respective rooms under the bed cabinet in front of the pillar trembling out, at this time the rain is harvesting clouds, the sun is rising, a group of people are waiting under the leadership of several sons to stand on the door of the mourning hall with sticks to watch, after a period of time to check finally a few people have the courage to move into the mourning hall step by step, only to see that the coffin is still a coffin, still stopped in the middle, but no one dares to step forward to see what kind of monster is lying inside.
While he was in a panic, suddenly a servant came running in a panic and reported to his sons: "Oh no, someone is dead!" ”
When the whole family was shocked when they heard this, they hurriedly left the mourning room and followed the servant to a room, which was where the stupid and rude servant slept. A chill suddenly appeared in everyone's spine, and an inexplicable fear enveloped everyone's hearts.
At this time, the sons were frightened, and suddenly remembered the words of the Taoist priest when they were leaving, so they hurriedly sent people out to the Taoist temple outside the city to invite them. It took about an hour before the Taoist priest was invited.
At this time, the whole village knew about it, and they all rushed to this house to see the excitement. When the Taoist priest saw his sons, he said, "Do you still believe that this is your father?" The servant who died last night was just the beginning, and if it is not subdued, this demon may be a scourge on this side. ”
