15. Open the coffin
It's certain that there are ghosts in our family, and I didn't suspect this because I was crazy, but because I was crazy, I was even more convinced that this thing existed, but neither Mr. Bai nor Mr. Zou had found the key to this.
And when I was crazy, these memories were obviously things that interfered with me, so I carefully sorted out my memories, from Hua Xiu's death, to my awareness that Hua Xiu would come to my room at night, and then to Hua Xiu's burial after I hit the ghost, these are all real memories, but the memories after that are my imagination, or based on reality, that is to say, I was crazy during that time. These are not real memories, so I have to get rid of them completely, otherwise it will affect my judgment of reality and even make me crazy again.
So except for Mr. Bai, whether it is Blind Ah Tai, or Eleven or Xue and these people, they all do not exist, they only exist in my imagination, as for the existence of places like the underworld, I dare not assert, because as long as there are ghosts, then there will be a place that we have not been to, and we are used to calling it the underworld.
As for whether the other things are true or false, I haven't verified them specifically, so I won't talk about them for the time being, so I just believe in one thing, that is, I only believe in the memories I saw before I first hit the ghost, and whether it is reasonable or ridiculous, whether it is ridiculous or not, it is all classified as my memories after my madness.
I have been crazy for two years, and now I am almost twenty years old, which means that Mr. Bai said that I may not live to be an adult, so the question is back to the original question, what is wrong with my life.
Now I can confirm that I went crazy because my uncle pestered me, so my life is like this, is it also related to my uncle's pestering me?
I think the secret lies in the uncle.
As for my uncle, I don't know much, and I don't even have any memory, when I ask my mother about these things, I think it's not that my mother doesn't know, but that there are unspeakable things that can't be said. Grandma concealed it thoroughly, so there was a secret in the uncle, not to mention that he was not married in his thirties, which is unlikely in the rural areas with outdated concepts. I think that the uncle should have been married, so his illness and even his death were related to this incident.
After that, it was all right. I got up very early on the morning of going to my uncle's grave, because I wanted to know what the reason was, and although my father said that I had better not go, but after that I insisted, and they couldn't help me, so I let me go, and just told me not to run around when I got to the grave, after all, because I was born weak, I have never been exposed to these things since I was a child.
The uncle's grave is with the ancestral grave. My dad had already found people, and after arriving at the cemetery, Mr. Zou made sacrifices first, and after arranging the perimeter of the cemetery, he let these people dig up the grave and open the coffin.
The time is calculated, so the time we set off and the time we have begun to dig are very particular, these people are specially doing this, and they are familiar with the road when they sit up. Soon the grave was dismantled, and the coffin was dug up.
The coffin had been buried in the ground for such a long time, the color had turned black, and the paint on it had peeled off quite a bit. When I saw the coffin, I found that the coffin was black, which surprised me, because the coffins here are all bright red, and there are very few black coffins. ”
He was completely speculative about his words, and when he said this, he seemed to already know something, so when the masters were about to lift the coffin, he called out to the masters, and he said, "Wait a minute." ”
These masters are used to doing this, and all actions on the cemetery are subject to Mr. Yin and Yang's arrangement, so Mr. Zou asked them to stop, and they stopped, Mr. Zou took out a stick of incense and lit it and inserted it in the soil next to the grave, I saw that the incense was inserted and extinguished, and I tried it several times, and then Mr. Zou said: "The yin qi of this tomb is much heavier than the ordinary tomb, I'm afraid there is something wrong." ”
As for what was wrong, Mr. Zou didn't say, and then I saw him take out some peachwood swords prepared in advance, and put a copper coin on the four sides of the tomb, and then lit incense to try, it is strange to say, after the peachwood sword is inserted, the incense can be lit, until then Mr. Zou said: "Let's get up the coffin." ”
These masters put the rope around the head and tail of the coffin, and then used the supported boom to hang the coffin little by little.
I watched from the sidelines, only to see under the action of the boom, the coffin little by little out of the soil layer, and I noticed that the soil under the coffin was wet, and even had a feeling of silt, generally speaking, there will not be so much water on the graveyard, and I was still thinking, I suddenly saw something under the coffin, and suddenly scurried a few times when the coffin was hoisted, and I saw what it was after the coffin was a little off the ground, but when I saw it, I couldn't help but gasp, Because under the coffin, there was a snake of human thickness.
Seeing such a big snake suddenly popping out from under the grave, everyone present was shocked, it was the first time I saw such a huge snake, and I was immediately frightened to the scalp tingling, and I retreated far back in a panic, and the others were the same, this snake seemed to be frightened itself, and I only saw it quickly crawl out of the grave. Then he scurried into the woods and disappeared.
All of us were terrified, especially the few masters who lifted the coffin, they didn't see such a big snake under it when they put the rope on the coffin, and now they are even more afraid. Then the leading master told my dad that they had picked up a life and came back, and that they had to pay for this trip, otherwise it would not be worth it.
My dad was probably scared enough to agree, so all the masters gave double the salary, and as for the snake, in order to prevent it from running back again, these people stopped their work for the time being. I looked to the side and made sure that the snake was no longer around.
Then the coffin was hung out, but it was full of silt and even the coffin had completely absorbed the moisture and was damp, looking at this appearance. Mr. Zou said that he was afraid that the coffin was full of water, which meant that maybe the bones of the uncle had been soaked in water, and Mr. Zou said that he had handled similar coffins, and the appearance inside was terrible.
Therefore, Mr. Zou advised us to be mentally prepared, because the appearance of the corpse may be scary and disgusting.
With such a warning, these masters have nailed the coffin off, before opening the coffin, it is best for people to stay away and turn their backs to the coffin, mainly at the moment when the coffin is opened, the corpse gas will suddenly gush out, and there is corpse poison in the corpse gas, in case of accidentally infected with the person who may open the coffin will die on the spot, so it is always good to be careful.
The coffin lid was opened in this way, after the coffin lid was opened, basically no one dared to approach, I was far away from the scene of watching the coffin open, from the coffin lid was lifted a little bit to be opened, I didn't see any corpse gas or anything like that, Mr. Zou saw that there was no corpse gas to rise outside, so he said: "It's safe." ”
Mr. Zou was the first to walk to the coffin, but when he saw what was going on inside the coffin, he was immediately shocked, and then he turned to look at us, as if he had seen something very incredible.
Normally, it would not be a good thing for Mr. Yin and Yang to make such an expression, so when I saw Mr. Zou with such an expression. I felt that something must be wrong, so I was also indirectly saying that my uncle was indeed at work at home, and what happened to me was indeed related to him.
Thinking like this, I also walked to the coffin, but when I saw the situation in the coffin, even if I was prepared, I was stunned.
