Chapter 14 Carrying the Coffin Out of the Funeral
"Two hours!" After Captain Qingfeng finished speaking, he made a gesture to me, meaning that I should follow him to the back room.
After I followed the Qingfeng Dao into the inner room, he took out the porcelain bowl, the ink fountain, the red vial, and a few yellow rune papers from his bag, and poured the red liquid from the vial into the porcelain bowl, and then poured the ink from the ink fountain into it.
"Thirteen, you go and grab a small handful of soil under the eaves, you have to do it." Captain Qingfeng said to me.
After hearing this, I hurriedly ran out and grabbed a handful of eaves soil and brought it back.
"Put it in a bowl." Captain Qingfeng said to me.
After putting the soil in the bowl, the head of the breeze stirred with a wooden stick, and while stirring, he said to me:
"This eaves soil, also called the soil of a hundred families, gathers the spirit of a hundred schools, and has the power of driving away ghosts and suppressing evil."
After stirring well, Qingfeng Dao took the bowl and asked me:
"You're still a boy, aren't you?"
"I ...... I ......"
Seeing that I was hesitant, the Qingfeng Dao Elder looked at me suspiciously and asked:
"Got a girlfriend at such a young age?"
"No, I mean...... Is it still a chicken with a left hand? "Saying such a ** thing, even my cheeky skin can't help but feel hot, but it's important, so we have to explain it to him.
After hearing my words, Qingfeng Dao Chief laughed:
"Haha, what's that! Give me a pee bowl and it's full! ”
"How am I peeing when you're here!" I said.
"It's not big, but there are a lot of problems!" Although the head of the breeze said something, the man handed me the bowl.
I took the bowl and ran to the toilet, filled it with urine, and then went back to the house with the bowl.
Qingfeng Dao took the bowl in my hand, stirred it again, then took out a brush, put it in front of me, and asked:
"Do you know what this brush is made of?"
I shook my head.
"Black dog hair, and it has to be a boy dog!" Captain Qingfeng said to me.
"You can pull it down, if the dog is a child, you can still ask it." I've just changed my opinion of him, and it's related to me again.
Qingfeng Dao Chang smiled and didn't speak, he directly dipped the brush in his hand into the bowl, and began to write something on the yellow paper.
"Thirteen, you can see it, this is the art of drawing talismans of the corpse talisman of Liuding Town, and it is also the most basic art of drawing talismans that our cultivators first learn, from the top and bottom strokes, first draw the fortune of heaven, then draw the filial piety, and then draw the soul, and finally draw the congratulation and piety, to this stroke straight down, can not be broken, when drawing the talisman, the heart should be sincere, the intention should be peaceful, the body should be positive, this talisman will be!" Kiyokaze explained to me as he drew it.
I stood behind him, confused, confused, and even a little doubtful......
Because I couldn't understand what the head of the breeze was saying, and I couldn't understand what he was drawing.
"How? Will it be? Qingfeng Dao stopped his pen and looked at me and asked.
I looked at the complex and abnormal Liuding Town Corpse Talisman he had just drawn, and shook my head blankly......
"It would be strange if you could, I had been drawing for more than a month at the time." The head of the breeze said something that made me want to do it.
After drawing the rune paper, when I walked out of the house with Qingfeng Dao Chang, we found that Fang Wei was still kneeling in front of his father's portrait, with his head down, and he kept chanting:
"Dad, I was wrong, I really knew I was wrong......"
"Alright, follow me out, and go to the funeral now!"
When Qingfeng Dao Chang took me and Fang Wei to open the door and walk out of the house, the group of people outside the courtyard immediately surrounded him, Qingfeng Dao Chang cleared his throat and shouted to the crowd:
"Point the Lord, mourn, hold the banner, hold the paper, and prepare to carry the coffin out of the funeral!" With the words of Qingfeng Dao Chief, the crowd that had been waiting outside for nearly an afternoon immediately became busy.
In the front, there were children holding white flags, and in the back, people were holding wreaths and paper ties, and they went out of the yard first and waited on the road.
And the eight men who carried the coffin had already tied the rope to the coffin, and the wood that carried the coffin was also inserted in the rope sleeve, ready to carry the coffin out of the funeral at any time.
"The eldest son of the deceased fell to his knees!" At this time, an old man walked up to the coffin and shouted.
Fang Wei hurriedly stepped forward and knelt in front of his father's coffin, holding a clay basin that burned paper money, crying bitterly.
"Break the pot and get out of the coffin!" The old man shouted.
Fang Dawei cried, stood up and smashed the clay basin in his hand towards the ground, and at the same time, Qingfeng Dao Chang ran to the front of the coffin, pasted the Liuding Town Corpse Rune paper he had drawn earlier on the front of the blood-red coffin, and then shouted:
"Lift the coffin!"
Carry the coffin on the shoulders of the eight middle-aged men who carried the coffin, and at the same time exert force, they will get out of the coffin!
With the sound of Qingfeng Dao is "coffin", the eight middle-aged men used force at the same time to lift the red coffin, but the coffin was just less than five centimeters from the ground, and with a loud bang, the hemp rope tied between the coffin and the coffin was all broken, and the coffin fell to the ground, smashing up a burst of dust.
The few men who carried the coffin, several of them were flashed to the ground, and the crowd of onlookers suddenly exploded again, saying everything, some said that Fang Wei and his wife were not filial, some people said that the old man still had an unfulfilled wish and did not want to leave, and some even said that Fang Wei and his father were going to cheat the corpse!
In short, the funeral scene was a mess.
This phenomenon frightened me who was present at the time, how could the rope that carried the coffin be at least the thickness of an adult's thumb, how could it break when carrying a coffin weighing two or three hundred pounds?
Fang Wei, who had been following behind the coffin, turned his head and was so frightened that he first kowtowed to his father who was kneeling a few times, and then turned around and looked at Qingfeng Dao Chang with a bitter face, at this time, Qingfeng Dao Chang was also frowning, and his eyes were staring at the red coffin without blinking.
The sunset that is about to set shines on this red coffin, and the light reflected by the vermilion lacquer makes it even more demonic in the eyes of people, making people feel a kind of resistance from the bottom of their hearts, and no one wants to go forward.
"Bang!" There was a sudden muffled noise from inside the coffin, and the big yellow dog that had been chained to the door seemed to have taken the wrong medicine, and barked at the coffin frantically.
The muffled sound in the coffin just now suddenly frightened the people in the yard, although it was dark and not dark, but what did the muffled sound in the coffin of the dead man mean, needless to say, the people present knew that it was Fang Wei's father, who wanted to "cheat the corpse"!!
"The rune paper on the coffin is burning!!" I don't know which one in the crowd shouted, and suddenly everyone's eyes looked at the "Liuding Town Corpse Talisman" that Qingfeng Dao Chang had just pasted on the coffin.
Sure enough, the "Liuding Town Corpse Talisman" posted on the coffin spontaneously combusted without any warning!
Seeing this, Qingfeng Dao Chang pulled his right hand into his pocket, and as soon as his body moved, he rushed towards the coffin.
When I saw this, my heart was immediately filled with excitement and anticipation, I, who was not very reliable, was finally going to show his true ability! I'll have to take a good look and take the opportunity to learn both hands.
Who knew that the next scene happened, so I almost didn't want to find a piece of Xizhilang jelly and hit it to death!
After approaching the coffin, the Qingfeng Dao Leader quickly took down the half-burned "Liuding Town Corpse Talisman" on the coffin, and then took out a cigarette from his pocket with his right hand, and lit himself a cigarette with the rune paper that had not been completely burned very forcefully......
When did this happen? He didn't forget to pretend to be forced! I wanted to pick up a brick from the ground and throw it at him, so that he could know not to pretend to be forced and be struck by lightning. The truth of this statement.
After Qingfeng Dao Chang lit a cigarette, he straightened up, first took a deep breath of the cigarette, so he made the appearance of a Taoist master, lowered his head and thought deeply for a while, and then looked at the people who were already stunned and said:
"Don't be afraid, it's not dark yet, what's there to be afraid of? This man just has a wish before his death, which has nothing to do with his son and daughter-in-law, do you know what other wishes this old man lying in the coffin has? "The reason why Qingfeng Dao Chief asked on this occasion was because he was afraid that he Fang Wei and his daughter-in-law would hide something from us.
After listening to the words of Qingfeng Dao Chang, everyone immediately began to talk about it, some people said that they couldn't let go of his two grandsons, and some people said that maybe he still had savings and couldn't say it before he died, in short, he said everything, but what those people said was not unreasonable.
After hearing this, Qingfeng Dao Chang hurriedly asked Fang Wei to call his two children to the coffin and kneel, so that the grandfather of the two children could make this last wish, so that he could go on the road with peace of mind.
After watching Fang Wei's two children come to the coffin and kneel, Qingfeng Dao Chang took out a piece of rune paper from his pocket and pasted it, but not long after the rune paper was pasted, he burned it again.
It seems that the old man's last wish is not only these two grandsons, there must be other things.
At this time, even the Qingfeng Dao Commander had no choice, he smoked a cigarette and stared at the big red coffin, and whispered to himself:
"Seeing that it's getting dark, do you really have to burn him down in the yard?"
In this tense atmosphere, suddenly an old man in the lively crowd walked up to the Qingfeng Dao Chief, leaned over and said to him:
"Dao Chief, do you think my big brother misses his cat?"
"Cats?" Qingfeng Dao Chang heard the old man's words, turned his head to look at him and asked.
"Yes, my eldest brother raised a big cat before his death, obedient tight, one accompanied my eldest brother, where he went, the cat followed, this is not my eldest brother has been sick in recent years, and then he can only lie on the kang, people can't come down, the cat has been accompanying him on the kang, don't look at that is a cat, my big brother and it feel deep, I guess my big brother wants to see his cat before leaving?" The old man said to the Qingfeng Dao Chief.
"Quite possibly." After listening to the old man's words, Qingfeng Dao Leader nodded, turned to look at Fang Wei and asked:
"Where's your daddy's cat? Hurry up and find it! ”
After Fang Wei listened to Qingfeng Dao Chang's words, he hurriedly said:
"My dad had a cat when he was alive, but my dad is like this now, if I release that thing, what if I cheat the corpse?"
