Chapter 161: The Coffin
84_84070The old man Ma was dizzy at that time, and he had a delusion, forgetting that his son had been buried, and he thought that he was trapped in the coffin and couldn't get out, so he hurriedly stepped forward to open the coffin, but when he looked inside, it was empty.
He rubbed his eyes to make sure that there was nothing in front of him, and then he sighed, thinking that he was hallucinating, so he lay on the mouth of the coffin, and looked inside with a lamp, trying to find some traces of his son's accidental death.
But as soon as he poked his head in, the sound of beating the coffin sounded faintly in his ears, and he panicked, only to feel a daze in his brain, and he passed out unconscious.
When the old man woke up again, he found himself lying on the bed at home, surrounded by more than a dozen villagers, he was a little confused, he couldn't remember what had just happened, and when he asked, he found out that he was unconscious in the coffin just now, with his legs hanging outside, fortunately, a neighbor came to see him, and then dragged him out.
When the old man heard this, he also remembered the situation at that time, so he told what had just happened, and then told everyone that it might be that his child's soul was still alive and wanted to ask him to go with him in that coffin.
Everyone was horrified when they heard it, isn't this haunted? But some people say that this may be the old man Ma thinking about it day and night, and hallucinating, even if the child comes back, what can he do when he is a child?
But some people don't think so, that is, Li Dong, he said to the old man Ma that if this child is angry and obsessed, the evil spirit formed is the most terrible, and it is likely that after being beaten by his father, the child was angry for a while, and he died in the coffin, and now he is a ghost, so he naturally has to come back to his father to settle accounts.
And the child is mentally incomplete, he will not care about his parents, he will only remember the person he hated the most before he died.
Under Li Dong's construction, the next day the coffin was to be transported to the child's grave, burned on the spot, and made more offerings, praying for the child's rest, so as to keep the village safe, otherwise, there would be a big trouble.
Old man Ma was also dumbfounded this time, to say that burning the coffin, that is the only property in his life, although he is not distressed to burn his son, but he stubbornly believes that his son's death is caused by himself, since his son is difficult to rest in peace, and he wants to seek revenge on himself, then go to die with his son, so that he can secretly rejoice, and he will be reincarnated in a good family in the next life.
So, the next day, when Li Dong brought someone to pull the coffin, the old man Ma rushed out and slept in the coffin, dead or alive, saying that everyone wanted everyone to burn him and the coffin together, and go to the underworld to accompany his son.
But can you do that? Don't say anything else, this is called intentional homicide, but as soon as this old man came up stubbornly, he didn't listen to anything, he grabbed the coffin with his hands, and he couldn't come out if he said anything.
When everyone was in a hurry and had no clue, suddenly a person came down from the mountain, about forty years old, with a dignified appearance.
There will always be a lot of mouth in a group of people, so they told the man about it, and when the man heard it, he stepped forward to look at the old man Ma, asked him a few more questions, and finally pinched his fingers and said to the old man Ma in a very positive tone, Your son should not be dead.
Old man Ma was stunned when he heard this, the whole village was stupid, this person had been buried for two days, and it was in front of everyone, how could he not die?
This man didn't talk nonsense, and told everyone on the spot that if he wanted the child to come back to life, he would go up the mountain with him immediately, and it would be too late after an hour, and he specially instructed that he must bring this coffin with him.
This person of unknown origin suddenly gave orders, and naturally no one listened to him, but Li Dong saw the clue from it, and he knew that this person was by no means simple.
Li Dong stepped forward to greet and inquire, only to know that this person's name is Lu Feng, and he has been wandering the rivers and lakes for a long time, he asked whether Lu Feng is a Buddhist or a Taoist, Lu Feng replied with a smile: Buddhism and Taoism are all cultivated.
This is terrible, those who practice Buddhism and Taoism must be masters among masters, Li Dong heard him say this, and he had a score in his heart, and immediately ordered everyone to immediately follow the words of this Mr. Lu Feng.
Li Dong's identity is Mr. Yin and Yang, and everyone still listens to his words, so he asked everyone to immediately follow the words of this person named Lu Feng, even if there is only one in 10,000 chance of being saved, it is still a life.
In this way, everyone lifted the coffin and ran up the mountain, and when they arrived at the cemetery, Lu Feng continued to order: dig the grave and open the coffin!
It stands to reason that if ordinary people do this, it will be easy for people to be killed on the spot, but Old Man Ma is the only seedling, he would rather believe it than believe it, not to mention that Li Dong, who is the main person, has already believed him.
So the grave, which had just been buried for two days, was dug up, revealing the small sheet coffin inside.
When the coffin was opened, the child was lying inside, not changing at all, his face was lifelike, as if he was asleep, and then Lu Feng instructed everyone to cover the big coffin with a red cloth, so as not to let the sunlight enter, and then carry the child out and put it in the coffin.
Everyone did so one by one, put the child into the coffin, Lu Feng asked a few people with red cloth to use the red cloth as a coffin lid, cover the coffin, he waved his own ink pen, dipped in cinnabar, wrote a charm on the red cloth, and asked a few people to let go of their hands, and suddenly strange things happened.
I saw that the red cloth seemed to be pulled by an inexplicable force, and the cloth was flat and tight, firmly covering the coffin, and it did not let through the slightest sunlight.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this, and they all retreated, only Old Man Ma and Li Dong watched nervously behind Lu Feng, Lu Feng stood in front of the coffin, pinched the red cloth with both hands, and said something in his mouth, and then saw that the red cloth automatically rose up without wind, like a wave undulating, and the four corners were constantly lifted, as if something wanted to rush out, but it was forcibly pressed down at a critical moment.
Lu Feng seemed to be fighting with something, and soon his forehead was sweaty, and his face was difficult to look at, and finally he stood up, shouted, and a mouthful of blood sprayed on the red cloth, and then saw a violent stirring on the red cloth, and then a green qi broke through the red cloth and rose to the sky.
At this time, Lu Feng hurriedly grabbed a handful of white powder and sprinkled it in the air, then tore off the red cloth, and asked people to take the child out immediately, the old man Ma volunteered to go up, but Lu Feng stopped him, and designated a young man with strong blood to step forward and take the child out, Lu Feng stepped forward and pinched the child with his hand for a while, seeing that the child's body was already cold and stiff and gradually softened, Lu Feng's face was slightly softened, and he ordered everyone to immediately set up firewood and burn the coffin.
Old man Ma didn't know why, and when he saw that he was going to burn his coffin, he hurriedly asked the reason, but Lu Feng didn't say anything, he only told him that there was something wrong with this coffin, not to mention that it would be buried in the future, and it would be impossible to keep it now.
Everyone saw the strange thing, and they were also afraid that something would happen in the future, anyway, there were a lot of dead branches and wood on the mountain, so they quickly set up a pyre, found a piece of pine oil as a guide, and the fire gradually began to burn.
At Lu Feng's request, everyone left the coffin dozens of meters away, and saw that the fire was burning more and more violently, and there was billowing black smoke coming out of it, and at the same time, a choking smell came out from afar, accompanied by a strange creaking sound.
Li Dong saw some clues at this time, and quietly said to Old Man Ma that this coffin was not in his mind, and according to the current situation, this coffin was probably evil.
Lu Feng stood alone near the coffin, watching the coffin burn into ashes little by little, the black smoke slowly disappeared, and when he stepped forward again, there was only a thirty centimeter-long black thing left on the ground.
Li Dong was the first to run up at that time, and he was stunned when he saw this scene, so he asked what was going on, Lu Feng didn't hide it from him, so he told him that this thing is called a tree fetus, or a coffin fetus, it is a ghost sealed in a coffin, and after at least a hundred years, it is formed by merging with trees, and it already has its own preliminary spiritual consciousness, if it is not burned, this thing will become a climate in a few decades.
Li Dong was puzzled, so he asked Lu Feng, since ancient times, there have been many yin and yang magicians, manipulating spells to seal people's souls, and they can't be born in a short period of time, and the pain is incomparable, I have never heard of it, and people's souls can also be integrated with trees.
Lu Feng said to him, of course, this kind of tree is not an ordinary tree, but a towering giant tree called Dragon Soul Wood, the branches cut from this kind of tree, made into a coffin, there is an innate spirituality, can fuse the soul of people, this kind of tree is the tree of extreme yin, if it is fused with the soul, it will even continue to grow.
When I listened to Li Dong's account of this, I was shocked in my heart, and there were two places in his last paragraph that directly pierced my heart.
Dragon soul wood, the dragon soul wood made into this coffin, isn't that another name for the town dragon wood in the Taishan Underground Palace? And this characteristic that can continue to grow when the soul is fused, how similar is it to the hunchback coffin at the bottom of the old river ditch?
Could it be that the hunchback coffin back then was made of dragon soul wood?
The hunchback coffin, the dragon soul wood, the Taishan underground palace, and the burial jade that came out of the hunchback coffin, and the strange woman in white in the dream, will there be any connection between these two? .
