Chapter 405: Facing Fear

As soon as he saw this bowl of white rice, Chen Ziyang's mind buzzed, and he instantly understood. I understood why he thought this coffin was so strange before, or that this coffin was a little familiar, and why there was a corpse wearing a Qing Dynasty court dress here. After the appearance of this bowl of white rice, these questions were all figured out by Chen Ziyang.

When he just saw the coffin and the corpse in the coffin, two questions popped up in Chen Ziyang's heart.

The first is the strange shape of this coffin. This coffin belongs to modern craftsmanship in terms of materials, craftsmanship, or overall style. That is, it will not take more than thirty years for this coffin to be made.

The second question in Chen Ziyang's mind was why this corpse was wearing Qing Dynasty court clothes. The Qing Dynasty is not even 400 years old, and this blood-red diamond is the key to the treasure of an ancient country, which can be called the era of the ancient country by Yoshioka Xiong and Instructor Liu, at least it is more than 1ooo years old from now, and the Qing Dynasty is not an ancient country at all.

Whether it was the coffin or the clothes worn by the corpse, they did not match the age of this gem, so these two questions lingered in Chen Ziyang's mind, so that when he first saw the coffin and the corpse in the coffin, he didn't notice that there was still this bowl of white rice in the coffin.

But when he saw this bowl of white rice, Chen Ziyang understood everything, he understood what this blood-red diamond was going to test himself, and he also affirmed his previous thoughts.

It is indeed a dream, and this dream is based on what I have experienced, or I have memorized. And what this gem really wants to test is what it fears the most.

Chen Ziyang has been very soft since he was a child, and he often provokes some unclean things, but these things only make him feel uncomfortable at best, weak and weak, or short-tempered, and they don't threaten his life at all.

But once, and only once, Chen Ziyang was almost killed by these evil things.

It was an incident that was born shortly after Chen Ziyang officially worshiped Bai and ate the old Taoist arts. On this day, there was a man who found Bai Shi Lao Dao, hoping that he could help move the grave of his buried father, and the new cemetery had been chosen, but in the middle of the process, I hope that Lao Dao can help manage it, after all, the burial people want to move the grave, and there are a lot of them.

Bai Lao Dao actually doesn't like to move the grave of the buried person very much, because he thinks that moving the grave is a big deal, even if the previous Yin Mansion is not good, as long as it does not reach the step of letting the descendants of the deceased die or cut off the children and grandchildren, Lao does not advocate moving the grave.

Because it is better to move the grave than to be still, a casual movement is likely to lead to other unexpected things. It's enough to toss a living person to move and change houses, not to mention these dead people who sleep underground for a long time. But he couldn't stand this person's repeated begging, so Lao Dao had no choice but to agree.

After calculating the auspicious day and going to see the cemetery of the new grave, Lao Dao decided to start construction. Originally, Lao Dao was not going to take Chen Ziyang that day, because this kid was relatively soft, and at the same time, Chen's mother had a dumpling agreement with Lao Dao, and in the future, if there was any danger, Chen Ziyang was not allowed to be taken.

But firstly, Chen Ziyang was very curious, and secondly, Lao Dao also felt that although the matter of moving the grave was dangerous, the danger was very small, even if there was any accident, he could still be suppressed with his Taoism, so he took Chen Ziyang with him.

When he arrived at the site of the old tomb, Lao Dao took the family members of the deceased and the accompanying workers to burn incense and worship. After burning the paper money and kneeling three times and bowing nine times, Lao Dao asked the workers to dig the grave, and after a while, the coffin was dug up. After covering the coffin with a soul-covering umbrella, Lao Dao ordered someone to pry the lid of the coffin open.

The corpse in the coffin was almost decomposed, leaving only some white bones, and the bones were covered with a few rags, which looked like a shroud that had not completely decayed, and the style of the shroud was modeled after the court clothes of the Qing Dynasty.

But what everyone didn't expect was that inside this coffin, next to the white bones, there was a bowl of egg fried rice, and this bowl of rice looked very fresh, as if it had just been put into the coffin.

"Old man, do you miss me? Why can't you even eat the egg fried rice I made for you? Seeing this bowl of egg fried rice, the deceased's wife couldn't hold it anymore, and suddenly she cried bitterly, crying and shouting with a handful of snot and tears.

The person next to him heard it from the widow's mouth. It turned out that the deceased's favorite food before his death was the woman's scrambled egg fried rice, so when he was buried, the widow fried a bowl and put it in the coffin with other things.

Hearing this, everyone felt that the back of the spine was a little cold, and the things in the coffin were almost rotten, whether it was the bedding or the clothes of the deceased, or some other small funeral goods, they were already rotten and could not be seen at all. But only this bowl of egg fried rice showed no signs of decay.

Looking at this bowl of fresh egg fried rice, Lao Dao touched his red rosacea nose and sighed, he didn't expect to encounter such a thing. Then Lao Dao explained to Chen Ziyang and others that although the burial goods placed in the coffin were not particular, there were two things that must not be put into the coffin, one was raw glutinous rice, and the other was cooked white rice.

These two things have one thing in common, and that is that they both absorb corpse qi. If these two things are placed in the coffin, the raw glutinous rice or cooked white rice will suck in the corpse gas, which is why this bowl of white rice has been placed here for so many years, but it has not rotted at all.

At that time, Lao Dao's attention was all attracted by the bowl of egg fried rice, so he didn't notice at all that Chen Ziyang's gaze at the bowl of egg fried rice was a little different, and he looked very greedy, as if Chen Ziyang wanted to pounce on it and eat the bowl of egg fried rice immediately.

Then Lao Dao told the family of the deceased that the grave could not be moved today, and this bowl of egg fried rice must be solved first. So Lao Dao told them a way, let the family of the deceased find a wild dog, preferably a black-haired wild dog, and then feed this bowl of egg fried rice to the wild dog to eat, and then kill and bury the wild dog, so as to dissolve the corpse gas in the egg fried rice.

If you want to move the grave, you must wait until the wild dog that ate the egg fried rice has rotted and the corpse qi has completely dissolved. Otherwise, these corpses could not be resolved, and it would bring unwarranted disasters to the people who moved the graves, so Lao Dao asked those workers to bury the coffins again.

In the next few days, Chen Ziyang didn't go to Lao Dao because he went to school, and Lao Dao didn't notice that something was wrong with this kid, but Chen Ziyang's parents saw that Chen Ziyang's taste for food changed suddenly.

In the past, he didn't like to eat egg fried rice at all, but now he shouts about eating egg fried rice three times a day, if there is no egg fried rice, this kid will lose his temper and won't eat anything else.

Chen Ziyang's father felt that there was nothing, and it was normal for children to change their tastes at any time, but Chen's mother felt that something was wrong, and Chen Ziyang's temper looked like he had provoked something again, so Chen's mother decided to go to Lao Dao the next day to ask. But before Chen's mother could take action, Chen Ziyang had an accident that night.

When she slept until midnight, Chen's mother suddenly heard the sound of the door closing, she felt that something was wrong, and quickly got up to take a look, the door of her house was closed well, but Chen's mother was surprised to see that Chen Ziyang's shoes were missing.

So she hurriedly ran to Chen Ziyang's house, and sure enough, her son was gone.

Chen's mother hurriedly called Chen Ziyang's father up, and the two of them put on their clothes and ran outside to look for them, but they couldn't find any trace of Chen Ziyang.

So Chen's mother ran to Lao Dao's house and told him about the events of the past few days, and after hearing this, Lao Dao slapped his thigh and shouted carelessly, forgetting that this kid was very soft, and it was very likely that he was contaminated by the corpse gas in the bowl of egg fried rice.

In fact, it's not that he is old enough to forget that Chen Ziyang's eight characters are extremely soft, but Lao Dao didn't expect Chen Ziyang's eight characters to be so soft, after seeing the bowl of egg fried rice, Lao Dao also observed the corpse qi very carefully, but he didn't expect that just by looking at it, Chen Ziyang would be evil.

So Lao Dao hurriedly led Chen Ziyang's parents to the place where the old grave was. The three of them saw Chen Ziyang lying on the grave, using his little hands to pick up the soil on the grave one by one. A small part of the soil on the grave has been stripped off by Chen Ziyang, and a corner of the coffin has been exposed.

And Lao Dao saw with his yin and yang eyes that at this time, a miserable white hand was stretched out from the coffin and was pinching Chen Ziyang's neck. But Chen Ziyang didn't realize it, his eyes were blank, and he was digging the soil on the grave vigorously, his nails had fallen off several times, and blood was dripping from Chen Ziyang's ten fingers and dripping onto the coffin.

At this moment, the old Taoist was in a hurry, and all kinds of magic weapons and talismans hit the coffin like no money. Fortunately, the dead person didn't die for too long, and there wasn't much corpse qi gathered, and at this moment, Lao Dao saved Chen Ziyang.

Under the careful care of Lao Dao, it didn't take a few days for Chen Ziyang to pick up a life. But since then, Chen Ziyang has fallen ill, and as soon as he sees egg fried rice, he will feel nauseous. And since then, Chen Ziyang has rarely eaten white rice.

Chen Ziyang, who was now standing in the void dream, was looking at the bowl of white rice in the coffin, and he knew that it was time to face his fears. Although the egg fried rice incident did not produce any bad results, after all, it almost killed himself. This incident caused a lot of damage to Chen Ziyang's young heart, and he still has a shadow in his heart until now.

However, the current Chen Ziyang is not the child who was extremely soft at the beginning, after understanding what the dream was going to test, the corners of Chen Ziyang's mouth turned up slightly, and he showed a disdainful smile at the white rice in the bowl.

"Do you want to test me? I'll let you see how the disciple of the old Taoist who eats for nothing, the dignified Maoshan Master Zhiya Daoist, cracked your little bowl of corpse rice. ”

Just when Chen Ziyang was thinking about the need to crack this bowl of rice, suddenly, eight spirit runes appeared in his hand. Looking at these eight spirit runes, Chen Ziyang sighed, a dream is a dream, this is really convenient, you can come whatever you want, if you have such a skill in reality, it would be amazing.

After running the mana and pouring the mana into the eight spirit runes, Chen Ziyang stepped forward in two steps, surrounded the white rice with the spirit runes, and set up a dissipation array. A trace of corpse qi was sucked out of the white rice and dissipated along the eyes of the Venting Array.

Just when Chen Ziyang had just come up with the idea of setting up a venting array, he felt that the small space created by this dream was a little different, as if there was a sign of collapse, but at that time, Chen Ziyang focused all his attention on white rice and didn't worry about other things.

At this time, seeing that the corpse qi in this bowl of white rice had been dissolved by himself, Chen Ziyang noticed that the surroundings of this dream space were no longer pitch black, but turned into a hazy white, although he still couldn't see anything outside, but Chen Ziyang knew that he should have passed this test.

So he walked forward, trying to get in front of the blood-red diamond. This time, this dream space did not stop Chen Ziyang again, and after a few steps, he stepped on the steps and came to the front of the stone platform.

"Taoist people believe in chance the most, you and I are fateful, I came here in order to fulfill my benefactor's last wish, and inadvertently dripped blood on your body, I don't know why you want to test me, but since I passed your test, it proves that our fate is not shallow, if you have anything you want to do, you can tell me in your dreams, as long as it is within my ability, I will help you complete it."

Looking at the blood-red diamond, after saying this, Chen Ziyang stretched out his hand and grabbed the diamond.

In the process of reaching forward, Chen Ziyang felt that he had boundless mana. The diamond test just now gave him a change of heart. Chen Ziyang has now grown up and become a real Maoshan master.

He is no longer the child who only knew how to hide behind the old road and tremble when he saw the corpse, nor was he the naughty boy who always provoked evil things and broke his parents' hearts.

At the moment when Chen Ziyang grabbed the blood-red diamond with confidence, that huge blood-red eye resurfaced in his mind. At this time, the pupil of this eye looked exactly like this blood-red diamond.
