Chapter 13 The Coffin Line

My heart doubts! came to the master: "Master, which one are you talking about?" ”

"I'm not sure either." The master shook his head and looked at me before he continued, "Since you're awake, let's go to morning class!" You've already done it in the morning. You can't be lazy! ”

I nodded and came to the spacious part of the courtyard.

Immediately after that, he bowed down and tied his horse. In his hand, the stick was gently raised.

Morning class is a habit, and this morning the junior brother should have gone to bed after the morning class. And because of my physical condition, it was postponed to the afternoon. But the master didn't let me go.

An hour later, I stood up with a sore back.

"The master is ready!" I stepped forward and said.

The master nodded, and in the course of an hour, he briefly dissected the wood selected for the wetland. This thing is to be carefully polished and given to me and my junior brother as weapons. There must be a coffin stick in the coffin's hand! Coffin sticks are mostly made of willow wood, which is then painted. The color of the lacquer can be determined according to personal preference.

"Alright, Adin, don't be busy! Follow me up the mountain! If my guess is correct, this kid's coffin will take a lot of work! While speaking, the master stood up and clapped his hands, then looked at me, and then looked at the junior brother: "Let's go, and follow the knowledge." Long horizons! ”

My junior brother and I nodded, and followed the master and Adin all the way to the top of the coffin mountain.

I led the way in front, because it was dark last night and there was a lot of fog, so I couldn't remember the path clearly! But the general direction is to remember, along the way to keep looking, keep groping, but strange. As Adin said, the tree with my name engraved on it never appeared.

This makes me feel a little flustered, could it be that the ghost hit the wall last night? I had some doubts in my heart, and then I took a few steps forward, only to find that I had already left the willow forest.

"Alright, don't look for it." The master's eyes showed a deep thought, patted me on the shoulder, and said helplessly, "You are really going to make trouble for me." But this is also your luck, it seems that you are still more suitable for the path of the coffin! ”

While speaking, the turquoise stick in the master's hand suddenly slammed into the ground!

I felt a gust of wind rise up and burst towards my surroundings. Then, in the shallow twilight, there was a heavy fog. The big thing was there, and it spread throughout the willow forest in an instant.

I felt a little weird: "yes, yesterday when I found that willow tree. That's the weather! ”

The master nodded, and then took a few steps forward.

"Since you have chosen my apprentice, then stop hiding and choking, and come out directly." The master's voice was very calm, as if he didn't care at all.

But after a long time, nothing has changed.

The master took a deep breath: "In that case, then the old man will find you!" ”

As I spoke, the stick in the master's hand suddenly lifted, and I felt a faint ripple rippling on the stick, as if it had formed a specific aura. It looked very weird, and then the stick was handed forward, and the air became heavy in that moment.

"Don't mind, this is coming out......" At this time, an old voice suddenly came out.

Finally, a willow tree slowly emerged from the ground. Very stout, endless wicker is constantly spreading and fluttering! It seems to be the best scenery in this willow forest. It took a long time for it to settle there.

On the thick trunk of the tree, there is a word 'leaf' quietly engraved!

"You can't do this, I chose your apprentice, so naturally I want your apprentice to find me. That's it! The willow tree spoke, and the dried willow swayed as if it were ready for winter.

"Come on, my apprentice doesn't have that much ability. But you, I'm afraid you don't have much longevity, right? When I came to you, you refused to leave with me! Figured it out now? There was a smile in the master's eyes.

"Yes, my roots have begun to decay, and if I don't leave here, I'm afraid I really won't have many days to live!" The willow seemed to be a little grumbling.

And the master suddenly laughed and clapped his hands gently: "Cheng, since that's the case, then I won't say anything." Adin, logging! ”

Adin stepped forward, holding a chopping axe in his hand.

He slashed at the willow tree.

"Oh, hey, light......" the willow tree cried out as if it could feel pain.

The master shrugged his shoulders a little speechlessly: "We have a saying called early death and early superbirth, a knife down, is more comfortable than slowly drawing!" Bear with me, it's almost over! ”

Willow sighed helplessly and stopped talking.

Adin's strength was so great that after a short time, the whole willow tree fell there.

The master sighed and patted me on the shoulder: "This old willow has been born, and if the spirit is immortal, the heart will not die!" You go and break off a willow branch and stick it in the dirt around here, and if you can grow a new willow, that's the best! ”

While speaking, the master looked at Adin: "Carry this willow tree home, and then find someone to come back and dig this root." Ship it home, too! I'm of great use! ”

"It's sir!" Adin nodded.

And by this time, I had already inserted willow branches into the dirt.

After saying this, the master raised his head: "You two still have to go to a place with me!" ”

"Where?" I was a little surprised. Isn't this all over? Where else to go? I looked at the master with some confusion and asked.

At this time, the junior brother spoke: "Widow Chen's tomb!" ”

"But we can't go down......" I looked at the master a little strangely.

But looking at the mysterious appearance of the master and the younger brother, I didn't ask too much. Following them, we headed for the mountain behind the Coffin Mountain. The back mountain of Coffin Mountain is connected to the Dragon River, and the place where Widow Chen is buried is called Dragon Cliff, which is the back cliff of Coffin Mountain!

When we reached the top of Dragon Cliff, it was already night.

The water of the Dragon River roared forward, and standing on the Dragon Cliff, you could hear the sound of the surging water.

When the master arrived, he stopped, and my brother and I stood behind us. I looked at my junior brother with some puzzlement, hoping that my junior brother could explain to me, what is going on?

"Widow Chen's tomb has been opened!" The junior brother said softly.

"How do you see that?" I'm a little lost. When Widow Chen was buried, I found something on this dragon cliff and hung the coffin. There is no tomb of a widow to be seen in this place.

But the junior brother knew that Widow Chen's tomb had been opened! What's going on here? I looked up at the master. I hope the master can give me an answer!

The master sighed and said, "It seems that all this is really not accidental. Although Widow Chen's tomb is a hanging coffin, I also left a hand. ”

While speaking, the master pulled forward! A nearly transparent thread that had been broken was pulled in the hand of the master.

"This thing, called the coffin thread, is the rotten willow root after being washed, and the woolen part of it is woven into a thread, and the thread is transparent. On top of the coffin, the coffin does not move, and the line continues! And now, the line is broken. That also proves that Widow Chen's coffin has been passed. This place, facing the Dragon River, is extremely dangerous, and people who can come here to move the coffin of the widow. I don't know much! The master sighed and frowned slightly.

I was stunned for a moment, and then I understood. It turns out that there are so many Taos in this!

I originally thought that the coffin master was just a coffin carryer. It's almost enough to have a handful of strength.

"Master, do you want to go down and have a look at ......," the junior brother proposed.

The master's brows furrowed: "I'll go down first, and you two won't go down." If so, what's the danger? The three of us estimate that it's too late to retreat! ”
