Chapter 56: Shadow Corpse
I opened the door of Bao's room with the key, which startled me, Ms. Bao and her husband were also lying motionless on the ground, I hurriedly slapped their mouths and sprayed cold water, and after a while, the two woke up slowly, and their minds were still a little confused. I put them on the couch to rest, and it took about two hours for the two to come to their senses and ask me if I was out. I couldn't laugh enough, and when I told the two of them what had happened, they were both surprised, and they both slapped their thighs and regretted not seeing them with their own eyes.
I called Lao Xie, and he said, "Congratulations, Brother Tian, those two Yin Spirits have fulfilled their wishes and left by themselves, so you don't have to worry about it in the future." But there is one more thing you have to get done, and that is the matter of Mr. Bao and his mother's corpse. This is more difficult than surpassing the two Yin Spirits, and it requires the packet of psychic powder. ”
"Psychic powder?" I laughed, "What does it have to do with macaroni?" ”
Lao Xie said in a serious tone: "Brother Tian, don't laugh at it, we are doing a very serious business, and not everyone can do such things as super-yin spirits, you know?" ”
I hurriedly said that I knew, and Lao Xie said: "When you go to the place where the old woman is buried, dig up the grave at twelve o'clock at midnight, and see if it is still a shadow corpse, if so, you must wear a spiritual charm on the neck of the shadow corpse, and then melt a small bowl of psychic powder with water, and drink it quickly." Then I won't talk about what is going to happen, because everyone is different, you just have to remember that the critical moment is still to chant the mantra. "I asked what was going to happen, when exactly was the mantra being recited, and was there any danger to me?
Lao Xie replied: "There is definitely no danger, you will know when the time comes." ”
Since he didn't say it, I didn't want to ask too much, so I told Mr. Bao to call his hometown and contact good people, so that he could dig up the grave and open the coffin when the time came. Mr. Bao immediately ran to call, and Ms. Bao asked me in a low voice if I could solve it, she didn't want to live in the same house with the ghost who hated her mother-in-law, and I smiled and said to make her feel relieved.
The next morning, Mr. Bao drove me and Ms. Bao from downtown Dalian to a rural village in Zhuanghe City. This is Mr. Bao's hometown, where his two uncles still live. After chatting, it was learned that the story of Mr. Bao's mother's body turning into a shadow corpse has spread throughout the village, the village is already very poor, and the rumors of the shadow corpse are becoming more and more widespread, and the villagers have a very big opinion on the Bao family's burial of the old lady in the village. Now that they heard that there was a mage from Thailand who specialized in dealing with shadow corpses, the villagers were both happy and curious, and thought I was a foreigner, so they went to his uncle's house to watch.
"We've never been to our village with foreigners, so we have to take a good look!"
"Is this a Thai, why does he look exactly like the people in our village?"
"Nonsense, the Thais are the Chinese species."
"Where is Thailand?"
"That's far away in blood, and it takes days to make a train!"
Listening to the villagers' discussions, I was angry and amused. Mr. Bao's uncle said: "I have found several people to be helpers, one is my younger brother, and my two sons and three nephews, they all have strength, and when the time comes, you can do whatever you want, and the matter of my sister's body depends on you!" ”
I told him that he must find the kind of person who is not only strong, but also bold, so as not to be shocked when he sees something, but it will be bad. His uncle patted his thigh and assured, saying that their old Zhao family is bold, so you can rest assured.
In order to entertain me, a "Thai", Mr. Bao's two uncles jointly funded the killing of pigs and sheep, and held two banquets at noon and evening, and even the director of the village committee and the village accountant also arrived. I told them about the situation, and they agreed, and decided to send someone and a car to help me solve the matter in the evening.
At midnight that night, the village committee dispatched the only motor vehicle, an old jeep and a tractor, to take a dozen of us to our destination. It is a mass grave in the mountain behind the village, there are rules in the village, people who die can not enter the ancestral grave, they can only be buried here, although the old lady Bao is not a horizontal death, but because of the shade of the corpse, can only be buried here hastily.
As a distinguished guest, I should have been able to get into the jeep, but I gave up my seat to the village chief and sat in the back of the tractor with Mr. Bao's two uncles and nephews. When I was about to reach the mass grave, the terrain was uneven and very bumpy, and by the moonlight, I saw a few dark shadows walking slowly on the hill from a distance, and I asked, "In such a desolate place, are there still people walking in the middle of the night?" ”
"Ah, who's there?" One of Mr. Bao's cousins asked suspiciously. Only then did I realize that it must be a yin spirit near the mass grave, and only I could accidentally see it, so I excused myself to be dazzled and misunderstood, and turned the matter aside.
When we arrived at the mass grave, everyone got out of the car, under the command of the village chief, just in case, we all put on masks and labor protection gloves, and Mr. Bao's five sons began to dig the graves, and his two uncles, the village chief, the village accountant and us all held flashlights to illuminate them. There is a lot of strength in people, and it doesn't take long for the coffin to be revealed. Someone used a crowbar to pry the coffin lid open, and several flashlight beams shone in, and everyone gasped.
This is the first time I have seen the appearance of Mrs. Bao, who is lying in a coffin in a purple silk shroud, her face is lifelike, as if she has just been dead for five minutes, and there is no peculiar smell.
Everyone took off their masks one after another, and the village chief's voice trembled: "It's really evil, it's been dead for half a year, and it's still like it's alive, no wonder every family in our village has failed to harvest crops in the past half a year." ”
Mr. Bao's second uncle was very unconvinced: "Village chief, you can't blame my sister entirely, the village has grown crops for so many years, which year has there been a bumper harvest?" ”
If I hadn't been so scared to see Mrs. Bao's corpse, his second uncle's words would have almost amused me. I hurriedly took out the spirit charm, looked at Mr. Bao, and then at the village chief, thinking that I should kick this ball to him: "Village chief, you arrange for someone to put this thing on Mrs. Bao's neck." ”
The village chief carried the spirit charm, and his hands trembled, as if he were carrying a string of grenades. He looked at them one by one, everyone retreated, and finally the village chief pointed to the eldest son of Mr. Bao's uncle: "Jin Suo, you are the eldest grandson of the old Zhao family, and you must come to this matter." ”
Jin Suo's face turned white, and he waved his hands desperately, saying that he would not go anywhere. Mr. Bao's second uncle glared: "Jin Suo, you are usually not afraid of heaven and earth, why can't you do it at a critical moment?" Don't disgrace your dad! ”
Mr. Bao's uncle had an ugly face and couldn't say anything. Jin Suo suddenly covered his stomach with his hands: "Oh mom, my belly is going to be loose......" He bent over and ran to the weeds next to him, never to get up again.
"Fuck your grandma, trash!" Uncle Bao scolded, and pointed to his second son, "Silver lock, go and put this thing on for your aunt!" ”
Silver Lock wept with a sad face, worse than the dead old lady, and he threw himself on his knees and began to cry. Uncle Bao said, "What are you crying about? ”
Yinsuo said, "Dad, I really don't dare to go, you can spare me......"
Mr. Bao couldn't help it: "Second brother, you are the most courageous, just go!" ”
Yinsuo said angrily: "How can you let me do your own mother's business?" ”
Mr. Bao's second uncle snatched the spirit talisman and threw it to his eldest son: "Copper lock, I think it's better for you to come, don't miss the time of Brother Tian." The copper lock was stunned for a few seconds, looked at the spirit charm in his hand, and then looked at the shadow corpse in the coffin, and suddenly fell to the ground, his hands and feet twitching. The village chief and others hurriedly went over to look, and the village accountant said: "Zhao Laoer, why do you still have the problem of sheep's horns in your copper lock?" ”
Mr. Bao's second uncle was also very strange: "This kid doesn't have this disease, Tiesuo, you go, hurry up." After shouting a few times and no one answered, everyone looked around, and saw that the iron lock had already thrown away the shovel and was fleeing in the direction of the village, without even looking back.
I couldn't help myself, crouched on the ground and laughed. Mr. Bao's second uncle's face was more ugly than, and he pointed to his youngest son: "Tusuo, you come over to me!" ”
Although Tusuo was very strong, he looked to be no more than twenty years old, shrunk his head and walked to his father's side, reluctantly took the spirit charm, came to the coffin, reached out and put the chain of the spirit charm on the top of the old lady's head, then pulled her head, put the chain on the corpse's neck, and finally walked back slowly.
