The Curse in the Body Chapter 52 Midnight Strange Things
"Hey, fool." Yuan Lei suddenly smiled, and then gently touched the tip of my nose with her hand.
I'm a little puzzled, isn't she supposed to be worried and scared? How can you laugh out loud?
"The most romantic thing I can think of is to grow old with you..."
Yuan Lei's sweet singing voice sounded in my ears. I leaned against the wall and didn't say anything, just quietly listened to her singing "The Most Romantic Thing".
Her voice is not loud, but it is very nice. Before she finished singing, I fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already dark outside.
"Oops."
Today is fifteen, and I came to the window and looked at the sky through the gap in the curtains. The sky outside was bright, and the full moon was hanging high in the sky, and my eyes hurt when I saw it.
Not only my eyes, but also my chest felt a slight pain. I hurriedly withdrew my head and got dressed. I saw a note on the table with a line of writing on it.
"I'm going to work, wake up, come to me - Yuan Lei."
The room she rented, not very far from where she worked. After I put on my clothes, I wanted to go out, but when I thought of the moon outside, I couldn't go out at all, otherwise I would be so distressed that I fainted.
As I was scratching my head, I saw an umbrella hanging behind the door. If you go out with an umbrella, will there be nothing wrong? Although, it looks like some people will be treated like fools.
However, when I thought that Yuan Lei would be on duty alone tonight. I immediately went out with an umbrella, and there was a good saying, "Go your own way, let S.B say it!" ”
After locking the door, I left Yuan Lei's residence with an umbrella. Even if I don't go to the hospital, I can't go back, and now that I don't have a car, I can only call my boss and ask for a leave.
I don't know what happened this time, maybe the boss is in a good mood. I was allowed to take a leave of absence, and said that I couldn't work, which was really gratifying.
When I came to the street, I felt a little worried. There wasn't a single pedestrian on the whole street, except for me, of course. It really worked with an umbrella, the moonlight didn't shine on me, and my heart didn't hurt so much.
While thinking about the warmth of the day and Yuan Lei, I walked to the hospital where Yuan Lei was. Not to mention, it really hurt for the first time, I didn't feel this way at first, but after I woke up from a sleep, I felt very painful.
My legs were also a little numb, and I felt like I was going to cramp.
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly saw a team of relatives in front of me. This wedding procession is not a car driven now, but in an ancient way.
The bridegroom is dressed in red, with a red flower on his chest, and a black hat with a red feather on his head. Behind him were four people with the same facial expressions, also dressed in black and carrying a wooden sedan chair.
There are also people on both sides who blow trumpets and suona, and beat gongs and drums. Behind him are all gifts carried by two people.
This large team occupies almost the entire street. It doesn't look so lively, it makes me a little fascinated. Antique wedding, this is indeed very good! I also fantasize that when I marry Yuan Lei in the future, I will also use this way, hehe.
I was happy when I was happy, but suddenly I saw the sound of blowing and beating gongs behind me. When I turned to look, this guy startled me.
The people on the other side turned out to be all dressed in white. The leader, dressed in white, holds a basket in his hand. And in the basket was the shape of an ancient copper coin cut out of white paper, he grabbed a handful, and then sprinkled it in the sky, walked a few steps, grabbed another handful, and continued to scatter, as if the paper money in the basket could never be finished.
Behind him was a coffin carried by eight men, and it was covered with a red cloth, which was, in my opinion, very frightening. The two times were the trumpets and suona, and the people who held the spirit flags high, their expressions were the same, and there was no expression on their faces at all.
That's a coincidence, isn't it? Why did the marriage and the funeral collide together?
We have a custom here, if the wedding team meets the funeral, then the route must be changed immediately, and the two must not collide. Otherwise, for newcomers, they are afraid of being contaminated.
But there is another custom, and all the formalities must be completed before two o'clock in the afternoon for marriage. Because the sun is abundant at noon, it is also a very advantageous for newcomers. Of course, there will be various situations, such as cloudy, rainy, foggy, and snowy days, but sunny days are the best.
As for the funeral, it must be buried in the ground before the sun is full at noon. We all use the method of burial here, and there is an old saying, "If you bury the sun, your descendants will not be blessed." "If it's bad weather, then you have to be buried.
I remember my grandmother telling me a story before. A long time ago, we had a person here who died, and the family had some money, and the burial of the deceased was also very beautiful, as well as singing operas, projection lamps, and things. These are still very rare things at any time.
Although at that time, it has reached the wax moon, and the cold wind is bone-chilling. But there are also a lot of people watching dramas and projections. The night before the funeral, it began to snow heavily and did not stop until the next day.
When I arrived at the burial place, I found that the pit that had been dug at the beginning had been filled with heavy snow. If you want to dig a pit out, it will delay the burial time, so the family began to ask the parents and villagers who helped to get all the snow out of the pit and then put the coffin in.
After the snow was dug up, it was time for the burial. So many people were busy, and the coffin was sent to the pit with a rope, and then buried.
Of course, no one cares about these things. When the family went to worship at the end of the New Year, when the deceased was five or seventh, it was found that the grave that had been made some time ago had collapsed, revealing half of the coffin.
Even so, the family of the deceased only refilled the collapsed ones. I don't know what's weird about it.
At that time, I asked my grandmother what was strange about this, but she just squinted her eyes and didn't answer me. So much so that until now, I don't know why it collapsed, but this is definitely extraordinary, otherwise how could the tomb have only collapsed in half?
Let's get down to business. I stood on the side of the road, looking at the procession of relatives on one side and the funeral procession on the other. They were all very loud, and the joy and sorrow came together and became another kind of music, which made me extremely uncomfortable to listen to.
The difference between them was less than fifty meters, and the wedding team still had no intention of changing paths. The groom and the men behind him were expressionless and walked on.
When they looked at the funeral procession, their faces were also expressionless.
