Chapter 35: Lifting the Coffin
The six of them immediately went out, and there was a Chang'an Star van parked at the door, this car was cheap, and the space in the car was large, and small places liked such cars. Although the driver www.biquge.info not counting the driver in the car, it can seat seven people, but after stuffing the luggage or something, it is not only not spacious, but it is also quite crowded. It's nice to be able to find a car in this place so late, so no one complains about anything.
There are still a little more than 20 kilometers left in Siguniang Mountain, but the mountain road is rugged and the speed of the night road is not fast, and it takes nearly an hour to walk for less than 20 kilometers. But as long as it's safe on the road and you don't encounter any ghosts hitting the wall, an hour is nothing.
In fact, there can't be so many ghosts as bad as the streets, if this mountain road is a ghost at every turn, a ghost-hunting family like the Tang family in Chongqing would have come to make a fortune a long time ago. There was nothing to do along the way, and when he arrived at Liu Chongtian's tomb, it was exactly eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, and Boss Luo didn't know what else to arrange and didn't let the driver go back, but stopped on the side of the road and waited.
Liu Chongtian's grave was dug a big pit at some point, this pit is square, about ten square meters, more than one meter deep, looks quite like the foundation of a house. I heard the second trial say that moving the grave and lifting the coffin is the same as the death of someone in the family, and they all have to build a mourning hall to guard the spirit, could it be that this rich man even has a mourning hall that is different from ordinary people, and he has to lay a foundation to build one?
Since the second instance didn't dare to talk nonsense here, it was naturally inconvenient for Seven and a Half to ask people, and even if they did, they might not tell him.
"Uncle Eight, do you want to dig?" Seventh Brother asked, everyone in the Luo family has their own magical powers, and when they encounter something that they are proficient in, others will listen to this person's instructions. After all, this industry seems simple but actually dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will lose your arms and legs.
The eighth uncle did not answer the eldest brother, but turned his head to look at the second trial and Qiyueban, which suddenly made Qiyueban's heart startled, what does this craftsman see himself doing? Is it impossible for him to dig up?
"Is there a monkey, a tiger, a snake, or a pig?"
The second judge shook his head, and as for July and a half, he didn't know how old he was at all, so he shook his head. His ID card and household registration were obtained by me in the relationship of forgetting my life, and the age on it may have only been filled in by the master's estimate.
The eighth uncle nodded, the relocation of the coffin is particular, according to the different years of the deceased's death, there are some people who must be avoided, in the industry this is called the Tai Sui pressure priest, the person who commits the Tai Sui pressure sacrifice master If he does not avoid it, he will rush to the priest and bring trouble.
"Dig."
The eighth uncle let go, and Boss Luo and the eldest brother were ready to start working manually. Although Boss Luo said that he didn't learn the skills of moving graves, and he basically couldn't interfere with the work at home, he was still capable of doing such physical work as digging. However, the two did not dig directly, first reciting the land mantra and other incantations in their mouths, and first informed the land and the main grave.
Then he recited the earth-breaking mantra to break the ground.
――
The sky is round and the place is round, and the law is nine chapters. I am breaking the ground today, and sweeping away the ominous.
Jin Ho and Yu are on it, and everything is auspicious. Mother Tu Princess, flashing aside.
――
The two of them looked like they were both veterans, and they were digging very fast, only to see the earth coming out, and the figure slowly went down. And the eighth uncle and the seventh brother were not idle, and jumped into the pit that had been dug similar to the foundation, because it was dark, and they didn't see anything in it, and it seemed to be a tent.
After the eighth uncle and they set up, a square tent room stood in front of them. A closer look at it in the middle of July turned out to be a mourning hall, but in addition to being built in the foundation, this mourning hall is not much different from the mourning hall used by ordinary people. July and a half were confused, what is this foundation?
After thinking about it, I didn't come up with a reason, and I could only think of a rich person as a rich man who was in a panic, and I had to dig such a deep foundation to build a mourning hall, to put it bluntly, it was the same as a temporary tent for disaster relief, and the foundation had no substantive role at all.
The second trial and the seventh and a half didn't help much, and it was quite boring to watch it just like that, but after about twenty minutes, there were bursts of crying from Boss Luo's side!
After the previous ghost hit the wall, the seventh half has become a frightened bird, what is there to cry on the side of the grave? Could it be that it's not Boss Luo who is crying, but what the hell is it?
On the other hand, the second trial looked calm, but he glanced at the dark grave, as if he hadn't heard it. I wanted to ask in July, but I didn't dare to ask, for fear that there would be something special about it, such as pretending not to know and being fine, and once I said it, I would be ghosted.
seemed to see the aggrieved appearance of July, and the second trial couldn't help laughing.
"Poof...... Look at what scared you, it was Boss Luo who was crying, indicating that the coffin was dug up, isn't there a saying that you don't cry if you don't see the coffin? In fact, it is said that it is earthwork, digging graves is easy to be frightened, and if you cry twice, the owner will mistakenly think that her relatives are coming, and you will not be angry. ”
Seven and a half months can be regarded as a long insight, it turns out that there is such a thing as not crying when you don't see the coffin, I don't know if Boss Luo is howling or can really cry.
After crying for a while, Boss Luo and the eldest brother crawled out of the grave, and then the eldest brother lit the black incense with the thickness of the three pillars of fingers, and he had never seen a black incense in seven and a half months. Later, he learned that the red incense was auspicious for worshipping ancestors and gods, and the black incense was for requiem. After that, the two also jumped into the foundation pit to help decorate the funeral shed.
By the time the mourning tent was completely erected, it would be two o'clock in the morning for five minutes.
The four members of the Luo family stood motionless in front of the grave, only the eighth uncle looked at the watch alone, and after another four minutes, there was still a minute left before two o'clock in the morning, and the four of them moved.
"Ready."
The reason why Uncle Eighth chose to lift the coffin at this time is because two o'clock in the morning is the real twelve o'clock in the morning in Xiaojin County. Because China uses the same Beijing time across five time zones, but the real time difference between Xiaojin and Beijing is two hours.
chose this time, firstly, because it was after twelve o'clock before entering a new day, and it was possible to reach the auspicious day he said about the coffin, even if it was not an auspicious day a minute earlier. The second is because at this time when yin and yang alternate, the two qi of yin and yang will reach a delicate balance, and at this time, the coffin is the least likely to provoke dirty things on the body of the deceased.
Of course, not every coffin is coffined at this time, and the soilworkers will choose different times to do it in different situations, and the details of the doorway are very deep.
"Entrusted by relatives, moving for the master, if it disturbs, the owner is not to blame."
Holding three black incense, the eighth uncle bowed three times and threw it into the grave, the strange thing is that as soon as the black incense entered the grave, it immediately burned quickly, like a cigarette that was sucked violently! In just a few seconds, it turned into green smoke, and only a pile of incense ash remained.
