Chapter 12: Cremation 12
The abbot was so tired and out of breath that he turned over and sat on top of the coffin, and said to me: "Xu You, what are we doing with this coffin, forget about the fire, it is not a good thing to lock up his master and mother, anyway." "
As soon as he finished saying this, the coffin suddenly shook violently.
The abbot was startled, turned over and jumped down from Shangmiao, and climbed out of the pit with three times and five divided by two.
I followed and climbed up as well.
The abbot turned pale with fright, but he still pretended to say: "Look, your master has fallen into my full set, and as soon as I use the radical method, he will"
Before the abbot could finish his words, we saw a large cloud of white gas coming out of the coffin. Immediately afterward, the lights in the main hall suddenly went out.
The abbot and I shouted in unison, and then ran to the door without yielding to each other.
The Great Holy Temple was originally not big. Although the main hall is called the main hall, it is actually just a slightly spacious room. The two of us didn't give in to each other, scrambling to be the first, but the two of us were stuck at the door, unable to enter or exit.
The white mist behind us quickly wrapped our bodies, but the two of us couldn't escape.
I was so anxious that I was about to cry, and shouted, "Abbot, you are paralyzed, you step back." "
The abbot also blushed anxiously and his neck was thick: "Why don't you retreat." "
After the heart was cold, neither of us had the courage to go back. I had to shout "one", "two", "three" in unison, and the two of them worked hard, only to hear a loud click, and the door frame was brought down by us.
The abbot and I fell to the ground, struggling to rip off the door frame that was on our body.
Then, as we fled into the courtyard, we looked back into the hall.
I don't know when the lights in the main hall came on again, but this time it became green and gloomy, and there was a ghostly aura inside and out. And large clouds of white smoke filled out, spreading from the doorway to the courtyard.
The abbot and I stepped back step by step, staring at the white smoke with our eyes.
My lips trembled: "The coffin is filled with liquefied gas." "
The abbot shook his head: "If you burn down my temple, you will compensate me." "
By this time, the courtyard was already full of white smoke. The smoke covered the entire temple like a mist.
The abbot and I retreated to the door step by step. Suddenly, I felt the abbot's hand pushing my shoulder, as if to push it back to the main hall.
I impatiently knocked his hand off: "Are you sick?" "
The abbot said innocently, "Why are you scolding me? "
I was a little upset: "Why are you pushing me?" "
The abbot said aggrievedly: "I didn't push you." After saying this, he glanced at me, and suddenly his face turned pale and he was stunned on the ground.
I immediately realized that it was not good and asked him in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?" "
The abbot didn't speak, but just made a strong look at me and asked me to look behind.
I didn't dare to turn my head, so I glanced backwards as if there was a figure standing behind me.
I took a deep breath, then suddenly ran two steps forward, turning back at random speed.
At this time, I noticed that there was a person standing in the place just now. Naked, with his eyes closed, standing there straight.
It was the corpse we brought back earlier.
Tricked corpse again? My first instinct was to run away, and my second instinct was to find a shovel to defend myself.
However, the abbot grabbed me, pointed to the dead body, and said, "Look carefully. "
At this time, I found that the nose of the dead body was absorbing the white gas one by one, and the whole process was very slow, but it never stopped.
I took two steps back and asked the abbot, "What does this corpse mean?" "
The abbot said with a sad face: "You ask me? Who goes, I ask? "
The two of us were discussing when suddenly, the corpse, whose eyes had been closed, opened his eyes, and then, with a move of his mouth, said a few words with difficulty: "Help me, draw the sword." "
The abbot and I were stunned by this sentence: "Is this guy dead or alive?" "
Seeing that the two of us were indifferent, the corpse raised its arms with difficulty and held them on the hilt of the sword.
However, it was obvious that he was very weak, and his arm had just been raised, and then he hung down weakly, and then, looking at me, opened his mouth again, and said weakly, "I am your master, help me draw my sword." "
I looked at the abbot, and the abbot looked at me, and the two of us suddenly ran out of ideas.
My master is obviously a coffin buried under the main hall, why did he suddenly turn into a talking corpse?
Seeing that I hesitated, the corpse said impatiently: "If it weren't for my guidance, you would have died because of the copper coin, hurry up and help me pull out the sword." I'll tell you the rest later. "
I don't know what the road is for, but when I heard the words "copper coins", I began to hesitate a little. Could it be that he is really my master?
I walked over slowly, then reached out and grabbed the hilt of my sword. As soon as I used my right hand, it felt like cutting frozen tofu, and I pulled out the peachwood sword.
The corpse did not bleed, this is normal, he is a corpse, how can the corpse bleed? After the peachwood sword was drawn, a white scar was left on the corpse's chest, and the flesh inside turned outward, also white, as if it had been washed clean by water.
The corpse looked at me, nodded, and said, "Thank you." "
This sentence is much more fluent than just now.
I stepped back step by step, everything in the past few days has been unbelievable.
The soul of a dead man, the deadly copper coin, the talking corpse, I secretly tugged at my thigh to see if it was a dream.
It hurts, it hurts in the thighs.
After the peachwood sword was drawn, the mist in the courtyard began to be sucked into the body by the dead corpse at an extremely fast speed. As the white mist was inhaled, the corpse's movements became more and more flexible, and then, he slowly walked into the house.
After a few seconds, the abbot and I heard a plop and everything fell silent.
The two of us, you look at me, I look at you, both are people who have no idea.
The abbot looked at me: "Xu You, you are a college student, you are well-informed, have you ever seen such a ridiculous thing?" "
I shook my head: "I was an atheist a week ago. "
The abbot proposed, "Why don't we flee outside the temple?" What are you doing standing here stupidly? "
I raised my hand and scratched my head: "Yes, why don't you run away from the temple?" "
As I said this, my hands and feet were shaking violently. After a few seconds, I couldn't stand anymore and fell to the ground with a thud.
The abbot was obviously no better than me, and he slowly squatted down and sat on the ground with his ass on his shoulder.
The two of us were so shocked by tonight's events that we couldn't move. They sat face to face until midnight.
The everlasting lights on the main hall returned to normal, emitting a pale yellow glow.
The courtyard was silent, and we couldn't hear anything except the sound of us both breathing.
I moved my numb hands and feet, and barely stood up.
Seeing that I could walk, he hurriedly laughed and shouted: "Don't leave me here alone, take me away." "
So I bent down and helped him up.
The two of us supported each other and walked out of the temple step by step, taking two steps. The abbot sighed: "My Great Holy Temple, is it just handed over?" "
I hit him indifferently: "It's not a person, it's a corpse." There is a corpse in the main hall, do you dare to fight him? "
The abbot looked back at the Great Holy Temple, and seemed to be a little reluctant. He hesitated and said: "Xu You, in fact, I think that corpse is no different from a normal person."
My eyes widened: "No difference? Dig out of the dirt. A peachwood sword stuck in his chest. What living person can do that? "
The abbot whispered, "Isn't he your master?" Probably not a bad person."
I shook my head: "If you want to apprentice, you can go by yourself, don't pull me." Ay? I said, you don't still think about your possessions, do you? "
The abbot sighed: "After all, this is my cousin's brainchild, I can't destroy it." Xu You, as the saying goes, wealth and wealth are in danger, how about you accompany me to the main hall to see? If it's all right, let's burn the corpse. In the future, you can come to this temple casually, just like your own home. "
The abbot said this indecently, but his expression was very eager, and it could be seen that he really had feelings for this great holy temple.
I nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you." If we can survive until tomorrow, you can buy me an insurance. "
The abbot was overjoyed and agreed again and again.
The two of us, who supported each other, walked into the main hall. In addition to a large holy statue in the main hall, it is a coffin. Other than that, nothing.
The two of us were looking around, when suddenly we heard a voice say, "You two are okay with courage, I thought I was scared and gone"
The sound came clearly from the pit. The abbot and I craned our necks and looked at each other. The body was clearly lying in the coffin. It's just that his eyes are open, and his mouth is still opening and closing.
The abbot began to tremble violently, and after a few seconds, he heard his voice tremble and say, "This temple, this temple is mine." "
The corpse sneered: "No one robs you." "
Then we saw him slowly sit up from the coffin and begin to crawl out on his hands and feet.
The abbot and I involuntarily took two steps back, our two backbones leaning side by side against the wall, and neither dared to step forward.
After the corpse crawled out, he sat cross-legged on the ground, looked at me and said, "I am your master." "
I shook my head, "No way, you're a dead corpse in the ghost city." "
The corpse looked at me and suddenly smiled, the corners of its mouth upturned.
The smile was like a sharp knife that pierced my heart. My heart ached, like it couldn't beat.
I remembered, I remembered who he was.
When I dug him out of the dirt, I felt familiar with him. Now it wasn't until I saw his ghostly smile that I remembered that when I was in the hospital, he was the one who captured Old Man Hao's soul.
My back was against the wall, and I felt a chill in my body. I whispered to my father-in-law, "Let's go, let's go, this guy is not a good person." "
