Chapter 484: The Ghost Blows Out the Lantern (2)
Light the red candle upside down, drop a few drops of candle oil, and then put the candle upside down, carefully removing both hands, for fear that the flame will be extinguished on the spot. Cha Wenbin's eyes kept staring at the corner of the wall, seemingly focusing on the candle, but in fact he was looking at the shadow behind the candle.
I couldn't tell what the shadow was, I don't know if it was a person or an object, but it appeared in this place and seemed a little abrupt. Cha Wenbin's face tilted back slightly, and the black shadow immediately disappeared, and he continued to lower his head and dig out a few stacks of paper money.
The paper money was ordered, and the person was half-squatting and muttering in his mouth was nothing more than passing by here by chance, coming in to check it out, if there was a disturbance to the place, bear with me, and burn some paper money to make amends.
There are shadows, it's hard to say what they are, and ordinary dirty things don't have shadows, it's common sense. But Cha Wenbin really saw that the thing was a semicircle, and it disappeared immediately after dodging and dodging, and after several repeated attempts, he was sure that the thing had been watching him.
Helpless, he is an ordinary person, at least physiologically, he can't teleport, and facing the unknown danger with his back is the most terrifying. Before he could distinguish the other party's purpose, Cha Wenbin decided to stand still.
When the pile of paper money was burned, Cha Wenbin also got up, and seeing that the candle was still burning, he decided to open a coffin to take a look first.
The small coffin is only one meter long, and the paint on the outside is also painted with dark black paint, this color of the coffin is not rare, most of the coffins are mainly dark red, and the black coffin gives people the first feeling: Evil!
The coffin was more than one person high from the ground, Cha Wenbin raised his hand and could just touch the bottom plate of the coffin, the two small ones were located on both sides, and the two large ones were in the middle, and he instantly thought of whether this should be a family.
Pressing the bottom of the coffin with his hand, Cha Wenbin tried to push it up, but the head in the coffin was as dead as an iron camel, one hand was forcefully still, and he changed his breath and held his palms upwards at the same time. He is also from a rural area, and when he was young, he was a good laborer to work in the fields, and his family built a house, and more than 300 catties of cedar trees could walk two miles on his shoulders without resting, and he was not a weak scholar.
The coffin, Cha Wenbin has a lot of contact, a coffin weighs only two or three hundred catties, plus a person and a burial, four hundred catties to the sky. With such a small coffin, the weight should be reduced by half, so that it will not be pushed without moving. Cha Wenbin took a deep breath and tried hard again, and there was ruthless resistance from the palm of his hand, this coffin was too heavy.
As a last resort, he had no choice but to give up, and when his hand left the coffin, he only felt that the palm of his hand was a little sticky. At first, he didn't care, but when the faint fishy smell in the air began to irritate his nasal cavity, through the weak light of the candle, Cha Wenbin spread out his palm and saw that his entire palm was blood-red.
"It's not your own blood!" The first thing that popped into his mind was this, who would it be if it wasn't his own blood?
The ground was clean, and if the coffin was leaking, there should be traces on the ground. Cha Wenbin didn't know what the purpose was, he aimed his hand at the wall and pressed it, and when he took his hands away, a pair of blood-red palm prints were left on the wall. Looking at that palm, the doubts in his heart rose again, the blood palm print was completely different from his own palm!
The palm prints on the wall are completely different from his own in terms of the length of the fingers and the width of the palms, and the palm prints on the wall are clearly the palms of a child, and the fingers are so young that even the lines are clear. Looking at his palm again, the previous blood red was indeed only concentrated in the palm of his hand, and he raised his palm to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, the fishy smell was not strong, it was very light.
There are no traces of cutting in the palm of the hand, which means that the palm print I pressed just now is the palm print of another person, so where is the owner of this palm print? Cha Wenbin's eyes once again focused on the coffin.
Seeing that the candle flame was burning very vigorously, Cha Wenbin couldn't bear it anymore, this palm print was pressed on his hand, but it was imprinted in his heart.
He took out the hand-kneaded rope from his bosom and put it on the hemp rope hanging from the coffin, and the two ends became a ring, and he first fell on the ring and tried the weight, and it was very strong. Holding the ring with both hands, he pulled his body upwards with all his might, and put one hand on the coffin lid, and with a little more force, the foot stepped into the ring, and then kicked again, and his body jumped and climbed onto the coffin.
The cover of the coffin is very ordinary, with his own experience, Cha Wenbin quickly found the two hidden buttons, and after gently knocking off the hidden buttons, he was ready to use the probing claws used to lift the corpse to open the tenon. At this time, he found that although the coffin had a hidden buckle, there was no wooden wedge as a tenon on the whole body, which means that the coffin was not completely sealed!
The clasp is on the outside of the coffin, which is just a means to prevent theft, but the complete sealing of the coffin is nailed by the wooden wedge as a tenon, otherwise, there is air circulation in the coffin, and the dead inside will not be laid to rest, which is contrary to the common sense of burial.
The development of the coffin is generally pushed from the head to the tail, and the face of the deceased can be seen when it is opened first. For those coffins that are found to be problematic, experienced people will choose to push from the tail to the front. It is said that before death, people will take their last breath hard, and this breath will be carried into the coffin without spitting it out, so when people die, their mouths are mostly open, and the desire for life begins with breathing.
There is no problem with the qi itself, but after a long fermentation of this qi in the corpse, it may be infected by the corpse of **. Taoists also call this breath corpse qi, if in the process of moving the corpse, it happens to let the qi held in the belly of the corpse spew out head-on, it is easy to catch the Tao, so most Taoist priests will choose to open the coffin from the tail.
Because this coffin was a bit evil, Cha Wenbin still took precautions first, he pried up each side of the coffin a little, used the seven-star sword to pass through the cover plate to leave a gap, and then used the corpse rope to pass through the gap and wrap a knot around the coffin. In this way, if it is really the main corpse in the coffin for a while, it will be stopped by this bundle of corpse ropes first, and it will not rush straight up.
After getting ready, he gently pushed the lid of the coffin, and unexpectedly did not encounter much resistance at all, and he easily pushed open the gap of a palm.
He took out the fire fold from his arms, he planned to see what the situation was here, and blew the fire fold hard, just when he was about to probe to look, he saw that the yellow candlelight at the edge of his line of sight disappeared instantly, and when he turned around, the candle in the southeast corner had been extinguished just now.
The ghost blows out the lamp, Cha Wenbin actually doesn't believe it, Zuo Ci, the old Taoist priest, is strictly not their Maoshan Fu Gang faction, and this thing is mainly popular in the hands of those tomb robbers. And Cha Wenbin asked himself that he was a Taoist, that it was his old job to exorcise evil spirits and eliminate demons, and that his task was not to leave when he encountered dirty things, but to surrender, because Taoists believed that any dirty thing should not stay in this living world, and that he would go to the underworld after death, and it was wrong to covet the world for any reason.
The real Maoshan faction has a very heavy killing heart, as long as you see a lonely ghost wandering, it will be like a hunter seeing the prey, giving priority to extermination, and only those that can't be destroyed will be changed to drive or send. And the ancestor of Tianzheng Dao Ling Zhengyang is a bit righteous and evil, not only worshipping the ancestor of Sanqing and Sanmao Zhenjun, but also often carrying wine and meat to some mass graves to drink with those lonely souls and wild ghosts, which is quite a bit of a river and lake.
However, since the rule of this ghost blowing out the lamp has been passed down for thousands of years, it naturally makes sense, Cha Wenbin thought to himself, you really think that I am a passer-by who wants to take your baby, and the Taoist master has no time to talk to you about these calves. With his right hand, he pressed the seven-star sword, pulled it back violently, and the sword body trembled and "buzzed".
He took out another candle from his bosom, lit it, and did not put it in the southeast corner, but dripped candle oil on the lid of the coffin head, and stood on the coffin.
Under the candlelight, the simple patterns on the seven-star sword flickered, giving people an indescribable feeling, and there was an evil aura in a trace of coolness. The light of the candle was very faint, and there were a few times if it wasn't for Cha Wenbin to make up the fire with a fire fold, I am afraid that it would have been extinguished, which made Cha Wenbin a little annoyed, he had a limited time to enter this place, thinking that a few little ghosts were not making trouble, so he simply carried the seven-star sword and nailed it to the coffin board. Sure enough, the candle seemed to have received oxygen immediately, and the flame flared up in an instant.
Cha Wenbin thought to himself, you little ghost is really a bully who is afraid of the hard, then I can't be polite to you, I can't help but increase the strength in my hand all of a sudden, just listen to the sound of "bang", and the coffin cover was half opened at once.
Then by candlelight, Cha Wenbin looked down and saw that there were no corpses in this coffin, not even a single remain. At first glance, the back half of the coffin was empty......
