Chapter 442: The Little Coffin
Mr. Lu said: "If Lord Ghost's warning really refers to Old Lady Chai, then you stay in Huaicheng." It's really safe. But...... Can you resist this curiosity? â
I smiled wryly and said, "I'll try it as much as I can." â
Mr. Lu patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, if you want to go, just tell me directly, don't be embarrassed." â
I nodded and said, "There's nothing to be embarrassed about with you, don't worry." â
Mr. Lu waved his hand and said to Xue Qian and me, "You two go to sleep." â
Xue Qian asked with some concern, "What if we fall asleep and the little ghost suddenly comes in?" secretly cut off Lao Zhao's head. Let's open the door the next day, how scary? â
I said, "Old Xue, can't you expect me to be better?" â
Mr. Lu smiled. said: "You two rest assured. I'm a Taoist priest, and the little ghosts around me can sense it. If there's any bad spirit, I'll wake you up before he can get in. â
I nodded and said, "Then I'll be relieved." â
I slept in Mr. Lu's room, and Mr. Lu sat cross-legged on the sofa in the living room. His eyes were slightly closed, maybe he was sleeping, maybe he was thinking about something.
I looked at him and sighed. Then he closed the door.
I didn't sleep soundly, and I was woken up from nightmares from time to time.
I dreamed that I was lying inside a coffin. Carried by four imps, wandering aimlessly on the street. I saw a truck driver, and I shouted hoarsely, "Go and call Mr. Lu, let Mr. Lu come and save me." â
The truck driver smiled and said, "I sued Mr. Lu, and he said it was a trap and refused to come." â
Then I heard the imps say, "Here we are." â
The coffin shook violently, and I was thrown to the ground. A hand pulled me out. I looked at it, and the person who was holding me was Mr. Chai.
Old man Chai will still be in the morgue bed. rubbed his hands together and said, "It's so cold this winter, fortunately, there are corpses, and they were transported over two times in three days. â
I was lying on the morgue bed, trying to escape, but my body was limp and I couldn't use my strength at all.
I turned my head with great effort and saw an old lady lying on the bed next to me, staring straight at me. She is none other than Mrs. Chai.
I haven't seen her for a few years, Mrs. Chai has aged a lot, she opened her mouth and looked at me with a dissatisfied face: "Young man." If you don't come to save me, no one will come to save you. â
Then, I heard a little ghost shouting: "Boss Chai, the fire is about to be extinguished." Add some spices. Brothers, it's cold. â
Old Man Chai grabbed Mrs. Chai casually and stuffed her into the crematorium.
The little ghosts shouted again: "Boss Chai, your wife doesn't have three taels of meat on her, this fire is not prosperous." â
Old man Chai said: "This is easy to do. Then he stretched out his hand and lifted me up. Stuffed into the stove.
I saw the fire turn into a fierce ghost with teeth and claws, and pounced on me with a smirk.
I broke out in a cold sweat and sat up from the bed abruptly.
When the nightmare finally woke up, I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead, put on my clothes, and climbed out of bed.
I opened the door and looked outside, and Mr. Lu was sitting there motionless like a god in the temple.
I saw that there was nothing unusual outside, so I decided to go back to sleep. At this time, Mr. Lu said lightly: "How is it?" Having a nightmare? â
I looked at him in amazement: "How do you know?" â
Mr. Lu hadn't spoken yet, and Xue Qian next to him had already pushed the door open. He complained sleepily: "Not only Mr. Lu knows, but I also know. You've been calling for help, like killing a pig. â
After Xue Qian said this, she closed the door and probably went to sleep.
I had a fever on my face, laughed dryly, and planned to go back.
Mr. Lu stretched out his arm and said, "Zhao Mang, if you can't sleep, let's talk?" â
I nodded and said, "Okay, let's talk about it." â
Mr. Lu leaned back on the sofa and asked, "What nightmare did you have just now?" â
I recounted the dream I had just had.
Mr. Lu squinted his eyes and analyzed, like a magic stick for dream interpretation: "Do you think Mrs. Chai is in danger?" â
I said, "I can't help but think so. After all, someone saw with their own eyes that four little ghosts forcibly stuffed Mrs. Chai into the coffin. â
Mr. Lu nodded and said, "Do you think that if you don't save Mrs. Chai, you can't get by morally." But go and save her, and I'm a little unsteady in my heart. I'm worried that something will happen to me......"
I nodded and said, "At least that's what I thought in my dreams. â
Mr. Lu looked at me with a smile: "In your dream, why didn't I appear?" â
I remembered the words of the truck driver in my dream: Mr. Lu said that this was a trap, and he refused to come.
I smiled and said, "Because Mr. Lu, you are a more treacherous person, and you have already seen through this trap, so you are unwilling to take risks for me." â
Mr. Lu smiled and shook his head, and said, "Zhao Mang, you still underestimate your kindness. In your dreams, whether it is Old Man Chai, Old Lady Chai, or me, you created ZĂ o. Their actions can only reflect your own heart. â
"In your dreams. I won't save you because of that trap. Actually, it really means. You're worried that I'm also caught in a trap, so you don't want me to save you. â
"If you analyze it in this way, the intention of your dream is obvious. You're stuck in a dead knot. If I don't save Mrs. Chai, I can't help it, and if I save her, it may affect me, and I can't help it. The moral dilemma made you feel very entangled, so you had such a strange dream. â
When Mr. Lu said this, he smiled cheaply and said approvingly: "My apprentice is not wrong, you really care about the safety of your teacher." â
I waved my hand: "Forget it, don't put gold on your face." Dream interpretation is a soft dough that can be kneaded into whatever shape you want. It makes sense. â
It was still early in the morning, and I sat on the couch for a while and started to get sleepy again. But when I think of the strange dream before, I don't dare to close my eyes.
Mr. Lu said lightly: "Do you still remember the methods I taught you when you broke your bones?" Try it now to calm your mind. â
I gave it a try. The heart that was beating wildly was really stable. After that, I just crossed my legs and fell asleep on the couch in a daze.
I felt like I had slept for a long time, and then I was woken up by Xue Qian. He looked at me with a look of surprise and said, "Lao Zhao, you can." Within a few days of apprenticeship, I began to sit in meditation. â
I smiled and stretched my arms and legs. Then asked, "Why do you wake up so early?" â
Xue Qian shook her phone and said, "Officer Shi is calling." There are eyebrows. â
I put on my shoes and said, "Let's go and have a look." â
Xue Qian said: "I thought so too, so I came to call you." He pointed to the door and said, "Mr. Lu is already waiting for us." â
Aunt Xue glanced at us and asked, "You're going out again?" Skipping breakfast? â
Xue Qian said: "Keep it for us, we'll finish it in a while, and come back to warm it up." â
The three of us came out of the room. I stretched, feeling the fresh air in the yard. Empty House:.
I opened the door and was about to step out. Suddenly, I glanced down and saw what seemed to be something strange in the doorway.
I withdrew my foot and took a closer look. It didn't matter, and I gasped.
At the door of Xue Qian's house, there were five small coffins neatly placed.
The coffin was the size of a book and was pitch black. Its workmanship is so exquisite, I even suspect that this coffin lid can be opened.
Mr. Lu squatted down and said, "Who put this thing at the door?" It looks like it's going to warn us. â
Xue Qian said: "Why five coffins? Is there any moral to it? â
Mr. Lu shook his head, then picked up one of them casually, he reached out and gently pushed it, and the coffin lid was pushed open
