Chapter 109: The Black Cat Searches for the Corpse

We were already surrounded, and the beams of flashlights shone into my face, stabbing me so hard that I couldn't open my eyes.

The villager at the head pointed at me and Mu Shan and yelled angrily, "Everyone, arrest these two tomb robbers!" ”

I hurriedly shouted, "Wait! Folks, you misunderstood, we are not tomb robbers. ”

Some villagers angrily reprimanded, "The graves have been dug up, and you dare to quibble? ”

I don't know which villager had sharp eyes, and found Mu Shan carrying his grandfather's body on his back, and exclaimed: "They even stole the corpse!" ”

Some people speculated, "Could it be a corpse dealer who sold the corpse to others for a marriage?" ”

The corpse dealer specializes in stealing and selling corpses, and my face turned black when I heard it.

I was just about to speak, but the man said something that made me vomit blood, "This corpse seems to be an old man, who wants to have a with an old man?" ”

Another chimed in, "Yes, you have to match a young one." ”

These villagers may not have touched the corpse thief, and their anger has decreased a lot, and they are curious.

"Enough! Don't talk nonsense, this is my grandfather. ”

I swept away the previous panic, and I was so angry that my lungs were about to explode, and I couldn't allow them to point fingers at my grandfather's body.

"It's not funny that this corpse thief actually said that the body belonged to her grandfather."

"How is it possible, the people buried here are all from our village, and we have never seen these two people."

"Who would dig up the graves of their loved ones? It's too lacking! ”

My words drew reproach from the villagers, who acted like I was a heinous corpse thief.

Mu Shan anxiously defended, "It's not like this, this is really my grandfather's body." ”

The villager at the head frowned and asked, "What is your relationship?" One calls grandpa and the other calls grandpa. ”

I gradually calmed down, and my thoughts became clearer, "This uncle, we are cousins and brothers, and the people buried here are all villagers from your village?" ”

The villager nodded, "That's right, it's all from our village." ”

I continued, "Since it belongs to your village, you should know who is buried in this grave. ”

A dark-skinned middle-aged man walked out, "This is my uncle's grave." ”

This man is the most fierce one he scolded just now, his name is Zhang San, and the owner of the tomb is his uncle who has been a bachelor all his life, named Zhang Youde, who has just passed away for more than a month.

"Uncle, let's see if it's your uncle." I carefully lifted my grandfather's head and asked Zhang San to come and see.

Zhang San only glanced at it and shook his head, "It's not Uncle Me, I don't recognize this person." ”

"Where did this old man come from, why is he in Uncle Youde's tomb?"

"These two really aren't lying?"

"Where is Uncle Youde, shouldn't they be hidden?"

The villagers talked a lot again, and the eyes of Mu Shan and me were still very unfriendly.

The villager cleared his throat, "Ahem, don't talk about it yet." ”

Seeing that this man was very prestigious in the village, the villagers immediately silenced themselves and waited to hear what he had to say.

"I'm the village chief here, you bring the matter to the truth, otherwise, we'll call the police." The village chief threatened.

I couldn't get out the real reason, and I had some difficulties, so I had to make up, "My grandfather's body was stolen, and someone told me that his body was buried here." ”

It's a clumsy excuse, but I can't think of anything better, for fear they'll ask me who told me.

Sure enough, someone asked this question curiously, and I could only say that the other party wrote a letter to me and asked a stranger to hand it to me, without revealing his true identity.

"Then where is my uncle?" Zhang San asked.

I shook my head, "We don't know about this, it's only my grandfather in the grave." ”

"Uncle Youde's body is gone, who knows if what you said is true or false." Someone questioned.

Mushan and I were caught digging graves, no wonder they didn't believe it.

What's more, my grandfather's body appeared in the grave of their village for no reason, but the original tomb owner was gone.

I suspect that Chu Gongzi destroyed Zhang Youde's corpse in order to 'make room' for his grandfather, and he can't do this kind of lack of morality.

"We didn't lie!" Mu Shan's eyes were red, and he almost couldn't help crying.

Seeing him like this, the villagers believed a little, and the village chief asked, "We can't just rely on your words, how can we prove that you are not lying?" ”

"My name is Mu Ling, and my grandfather's name is Mu Zhengkun.................."

These villagers are not easy to fool, and in order to convince them, I have to tell who I and my grandfather are with us.

We are not so far from here, they really don't believe it, they can let people check it, of course, they haven't leaked anything related to the Xuan Realm.

It may be that my attitude is calm, and the expressions of the village chief and others have softened a lot.

A villager seemed to think of something, and suddenly said to himself: "Mu Zhengkun's name is so familiar, I seem to have heard it somewhere." ”

A woman next to him, who might be his mother-in-law, pinched him, "You forgot that I have a relative, so I married in Nangou Village, Huainan Town, she has an old man there who is very capable, everyone calls him Old Man Mu, will his full name be Mu Zhengkun?" ”

"Yes, I seem to have heard you say that this old man Mu opened a funeral shop in the town, and he was killed and disappeared, so the whole town will be looking for him."

The couple talked about it as if no one else was there, looking at their grandfather's body from time to time.

I felt very uncomfortable, but it was hard to stop it, Mu Shan burst into muscles, clenched his fists, and tried to endure it.

The village chief was very shrewd, and he saw the reaction of Mu Shan and me.

I calmed down and asked, "Auntie, what is the name of your relative, if I can tell her family, it means that I am not lying." ”

The woman didn't think much about it, but said, "That's my cousin, her name is Wang Huifen." ”

As soon as I heard it, I knew who it was, Wang Huifen's daughter was another girl who was dedicated to the python demon by Wang Dagui.

"It turned out to be Aunt Huifen, his husband's surname is Liu, almost two years ago, her daughter Liu Lanxiang was killed, and I still put on makeup."

The woman nodded excitedly, "Yes, yes, you are right, it must be from Nangou Village." ”

"If you don't believe it, you can ask this aunt to call and ask."

This was said to the village chief, which made it even more obvious to people that I was open.

The village chief was suspicious, and he asked the woman, "Dazhu's daughter-in-law, do you know how long that old man Mu has been missing?" ”

"Come to think of it, it seems like it's been almost a year." The woman frowned.

The village chief nodded and asked me, "When did your grandfather die?" ”

"I don't know, he should have been alive when he disappeared, and my cousin and I have been looking for him for the past year."

I firmly said that I didn't know who buried my grandfather's body here.

The village chief is not easy to fool, so he really asked the woman to call and ask Wang Huifen.

Fortunately, Wang Huifen doesn't know much, and her words match mine.

The village chief and the others finally believed me, and I asked anxiously, "Can we take the body away?" It's not good to leave it for a long time. ”

"This is the body of your loved one, of course you can take it, but-"

The village chief said, pausing deliberately, and Mu Shan asked urgently, "But what?" ”

"You are the grandchildren of Old Man Mu, and you should also be capable people, see if you can help find Uncle Youde's body."

As soon as the village chief finished speaking, Zhang San begged us to help with this, as long as Zhang Youde's body was recovered, tonight's incident would be treated as if it had never happened.

These villagers are good at talking, at least they don't start as soon as they come up, so that we have a chance to explain.

Zhang Youde's body is indeed missing because of my grandfather, and I have the obligation to help find it, for fear that it has been destroyed by Gongzi Chu.

"My grandfather always wanted our sister and brother to be ordinary people, and he didn't teach us much about it." That's why I'm doing it.

This is said so as not to find Zhang Youde's body, and be accused of not doing his best, or having a ghost in his heart.

The village chief didn't believe it very much, "You should have heard and seen it on weekdays, right?" ”

The sharp-eyed villager suddenly said, "Village chief, they should be capable." ”

He had a small flag in his hand, which I had missed when I had done the trick to summon ghosts.

Now, I can't shirk it, "I'll try, but I have to cremate my grandfather first." ”

"This is natural, tomorrow I will take you to the crematorium, now it is very late, you will rest at my house first."

The village chief said that he wanted someone to help carry my grandfather's body, but I politely refused, "No need, just let my cousin carry it." ”

Mu Shan was naturally willing to carry his grandfather on his back, so I let him walk in front, deliberately took a few steps behind, and grabbed the village chief.

The village chief was stunned for a moment, but soon understood, and slowed down with me.

He looked left and right before asking, "Little girl, what do you have to say to me?" ”

"Village chief, how do you know we're digging graves?" I asked.

Their village was not far from the cemetery, but neither the method nor the digging of the grave made much noise, and it was late at night, so the villagers should have fallen asleep, and it was impossible to rush to hear the sound.

Moreover, when they came, they all brought 'weapons', apparently knowing that someone was digging graves.

This question is what I just thought of, and the reason why I was on guard and didn't let Mu Shan hear it was because I was suspicious of him, after all, he went to the village to steal a shovel.

The village chief's face was a little strange, he hesitated for a moment and said, "The big bolt was not asleep, and suddenly I heard someone shouting, 'Someone robbed the tomb'." ”

I thought about it for a moment, and then asked, "Is there two shovels missing from this big bolt in the house?" ”

"yes, how do you know?" The village chief looked at me in amazement.

He said that the villagers knew that someone had robbed the grave, so they all copied their own guys, and the big bolt was supposed to take a shovel, but it turned out that the two shovels in the house were missing.

My heart sank, and I pointed to the shovel that had fallen on the side of the grave and said, "There it is." ”

"It was stolen by you, but—" The village chief probably guessed something, and didn't continue.

I panicked, filled with deep disappointment, and followed the village chief back to his house in despair.

Mu Shan went to the village chief's house first, and my grandfather's body was placed in the courtyard, and only a straw mat was laid on the ground, which made me feel desolate.

"Cousin, you're walking so slowly." Mu Shan greeted him.

I wiped away the chill in my eyes, answered lightly, and ignored him.

Mu Shan thought that I was in a bad mood because of what happened tonight, so he didn't think much about it.

Instead, the village chief patted me on the shoulder, "My daughter is out of the house, you go to sleep in her house." ”

The village chief pointed me out a side room and asked Mu Shan to sleep with his son.

After arranging, they went back to the house to sleep, I was thinking about my grandfather, and I couldn't sleep after tossing and turning.

The window of this house faced the courtyard, and I moved a chair and sat in front of the window, looking at my grandfather from afar.

I didn't feel a little sleepy this night, and I stayed with my grandfather all night, and my tears dried up naturally.

The village chief's mother-in-law got up early, carried a bucket, and passed by my window.

She was surprised to see me lying on the windowsill, "Little girl, why did you get up so early?" ”

"yes." I smiled, but I didn't know that my face was frighteningly pale.

The village chief's mother-in-law was not blind, so she naturally saw that I was in good spirits, and exclaimed, "You shouldn't have been lying here all night, right?" ”

I was a little embarrassed, she told me to sleep, made breakfast and called me.

Knowing that she meant well, I didn't refuse, and I was a little sleepy.

I slept until noon, and the village chief's mother-in-law couldn't bear to wake me up when she saw that I hadn't slept all night.

After lunch, the village chief called his son, carried his grandfather's body in a tricycle, and took Mushan and me to the crematorium.

The crematorium is said to be in the town, but it is actually close to the suburbs, and most of the people here are buried, and not many people will come to cremation.

In the absence of business, the staff at the crematorium were very welcoming to us.

Because business was not good, the crematorium also used makeup for the deceased, so I borrowed their tools and personally groomed my grandfather.

Before coming to the crematorium, I specially asked the village chief to lead the way and bought a set of shrouds.

My grandfather didn't know how many funerals he had done in his life, and how many people had left this world clean and without regrets.

Now it's his turn, and I don't want him to leave embarrassed, even if the conditions are not good, he will be cremated.

"It turns out that this girl is still a peer, and her skills are pretty good, are you interested-"

I put on my grandfather's makeup with tears in my eyes, but the person in charge of the crematorium said endlessly that he wanted to hire me.

Mu Shan was annoyed, so I spoke first: "Don't say it, my cousin won't work here with you." ”

The man walked away in a huff, and when it was time to be cremated, he came to see it again.

I ignored him and watched as my grandfather's body was carried onto the conveyor belt of the incinerator.

When the staff wanted to pull down the guillotine to open my grandfather's abdomen, I couldn't help but stop, "Don't cut it, just cremate it." ”

"Little girl, how can this not be cut!" One of the staff members said.

He told me about some common phenomena of cremating corpses, such as encountering bioelectricity, shaking arms and legs or something, it looks like a scary corpse, but in fact, static electricity is causing trouble, or muscle contraction in high temperatures.

There are also corpses that are thrown into the incinerator and burned, and some will open their mouths and snort, which is not a corpse, it is the sound of steam from the stomach rushing through the throat, just like a human burping.

These phenomena can only be prevented by cutting open the abdomen, and the high-pressure gas in the closed abdomen must be discharged after the body is burned.

I knew all these principles, but I didn't stop it, I closed my eyes, and I couldn't bear to see my grandfather burned to ashes in the fire.

******

Coming out of the crematorium, I held my grandfather's ashes like a soulless puppet.

"Cousin, let me get it, shall I?" Mu Shan wanted to take the urn from me.

"No!" I avoided him detachedly and asked the village chief to take us back to the hotel to get our things.

I didn't bring much with me when I went to the cemetery last night, and my luggage and most of the ritual weapons were left in the hotel, so I might have to do it when I was looking for Zhang Youde's body.

Mu Shan asked in a low mood, "Cousin, are you still sad for your grandfather?" ”

I glanced at him coldly and asked indifferently, "Aren't you sad?" ”

"Cousin, how could I not be sad?" Mu Shan was so anxious that his face was flushed.

I hugged the urn tightly, and I didn't have time to pay attention to Mu Shan, he wanted to speak and stopped.

After getting our things back from the hotel, we went back to the village with the village chief.

Last night, I only cared about confirming with the lonely ghosts in the cemetery whether it was the ghost sent by Gongzi Chu to bury my grandfather, but I forgot to ask if I saw how to deal with Zhang Youde's corpse.

It seems that the ghost will have to be recruited again, maybe the lonely ghost knows where Zhang Youde's body was dumped.

In fact, the villagers have searched near the cemetery, but found nothing.

As it turned out, I was thinking too simply, and when I arrived at the cemetery, those lonely ghosts were gone.

Zhang Youde's tombstone has an extra line of blood characters, which was actually left by Gongzi Chu.

He said that he wanted to play a game with me, and that Zhang Youde's body was hidden, and asked me to find out the body myself.

I was so angry that I couldn't figure out if he was so idle that he deliberately played with me.

If Zhang Youde's body was hidden by Chu Gongzi, it would not be easy to find it, his soul was no longer in the corpse, and he could not use the method of conjuring spirits to find the corpse.

I hope that Gongzi Chu did not lack virtue and went to his grandmother's house, and only hid Zhang Youde's body in the village.

Seeing that I was worried, Zhang San asked anxiously, "Little girl, is there a way to recover my uncle's body?" ”

"I'll do my best, you go and help me find a black cat." I sighed.

"What do you want a black cat for? It's wicked. Zhang San disagreed.

"Don't ask too much, I'm useful." I didn't elaborate.

Seeing that Zhang San was very reluctant, the village chief kicked him in the ass, "If you want to go, why is there so much nonsense?" ”

But as soon as Zhang San left, the village chief also asked me curiously, "Little girl, what do you want the black cat to do?" ”

"Helping to find the body, of course." I didn't want to explain too much, so I casually perfunctory a few words from the village chief.

Zhang San's work efficiency was not bad, and he soon found a black cat.

I didn't ask him where he got it, but asked him to get some fresh chicken blood and prepare something.

After soaking the red thread in chicken blood, I tied all the limbs of the black cat.

In the past, there were always people who said that black cats were ominous and easy to attract dirty things, but it was just a rumor.

The reason is that black cats themselves have the ability to ward off evil spirits, so where there are unclean things, they like to go, so they are misunderstood as the culprit.

In fact, black cats can ward off evil spirits, but the ones who can really attract evil spirits are white cats, which can't be raised indiscriminately.

There was once an ancient book that recorded that the black cat, also known as the black cat, is a thing to ward off evil spirits, easy to place in the south, easy for children and grandchildren, and easy to move.

From the perspective of metaphysical feng shui, not all cats with black coat can be called black cats, and cats with black fur and three lights and one light with blood red can be regarded as cats that drive away evil and avoid evil, also called cats.

Ordinary black cats do not have the effect of driving away evil spirits at all, and the saying that white cats attract evil spirits is not based on the color of the cat's coat.

The real 'white cat' is a wild cat that lives in a cemetery and has eaten the flesh of a dead man, and this kind of cat has the effect of attracting evil spirits.

Therefore, many evil and crooked warlocks like to raise white cats to practice the law.

I wanted to use the fact that black cats are easily attracted by yin qi or corpse qi to find Zhang Youde's corpse.

Maybe it's luck, Zhang San found a real black cat.

I also asked Zhang San to find a thing that Zhang Youde had used, thanks to the fact that they didn't have a rule here to burn relics to the deceased.

Zhang San took a piece of clothing that Zhang Youde wore before his death, and I used scissors to cut the clothes into strips of cloth and tie them around the neck of the black cat.

Zhang Youde's clothes are more or less stained with his breath, everyone's breath is different, and this breath does not really refer to the smell.

Usually you can't smell this smell, and after death, it will be transformed into a special dead gas, and most of it remains on the corpse.

The black cat can find Zhang Youde's body through the traction of the dead air on his clothes.

Before looking for the corpse, I made the black cat's sense of smell more sensitive.

Mu Shan saw me casting a spell on the black cat, and asked suspiciously, "Cousin, if you want the black cat to find the corpse, it really works?" ”

"Hmm!" I answered lukewarmly.

Mu Shan saw that I didn't want to deal with him, so he didn't talk anymore.

I pointed my sword at the black cat's forehead, and said in my mouth, "Yi'er Shen's eyes, for my eyes, looking for qi, through the yin and Luo Qian, but the evil guards the truth, and the soul is ..................."

As soon as he finished reciting the incantation, the black cat's eyes suddenly lit up, and two cold lights flashed.

Mu Shan's comprehension is really high, and he actually understands the meaning of the spell.

He guessed the effect of my magic, through the eyes of the black cat, and saw everything it saw as it searched for the corpse.

I saw this spell in a book, and I don't know how it works.

Mu Shan was stunned, revealing an incredible expression, "Cousin, this, this-"

"Isn't it better than those crooked arts?" I couldn't help but stab him.

"Much stronger." Mu Shan lowered his head in shame.

I accepted it when I saw it, and I didn't say anything about Mu Shan, and when I saw that the black cat was already under control, I untied the red thread tied to its limbs.

The search for the corpse of the black cat cannot be chosen at the peak of the yin qi, otherwise, the black cat will be disturbed.

As soon as it gets dark, you can start searching, but now that it's dark, I asked the village chief not to tell the villagers about this, so as not to cause panic in the hearts of the people.

I didn't let the village chief and other ordinary people follow, released the black cat, and followed with Mu Shan.

For the time being, the search is set in the vicinity of the cemetery, and in and around the village.

The black cat has been cast with more spirituality, and it sniffs carefully like a dog.

The image in its line of sight, as if it were playing TV, came to my mind clearly.

We searched the village first, and the further we went to the back of the village, the more excited the black cat became, and when it approached a house at the end of the village, it stopped.

A hole was broken under the courtyard gate, and the black cat turned its head and meowed at me, and then went into the hole, and his movements were very flexible.

Suddenly, I saw a familiar person through the eyes of a black cat, to be precise, he was no longer human.

It's him, I still want to find him, it's really nowhere to find it, and it takes no effort to get it.

Mu Shan looked into the courtyard, "Cousin, is the body inside?" ”
