Inside the room, a brand-new coffin was parked, and in front of it was a kerosene lamp, burning with a yellowish flame.

Behind the kerosene lamp, near the coffin, erected a picture frame, inlaid with a black-and-white portrait of an old man, with sunken eye sockets, piled wrinkles, a miserable white face, wearing a black bowler hat, and a toothless mouth slightly open, as if smiling at the door in the light of the kerosene lamp.

As the door was wide open, and a cold wind poured into the room, the flame of the kerosene lamp was a little unstable and shook quite violently, and set off the eerie portrait, which frightened me into two steps backwards, and almost screamed.

Everyone else rushed to see this horrible scene, and they all gasped.

I helped Zhong Daochang up, no wonder Zhong Daochang was afraid, in such a gloomy room, suddenly saw a portrait of an old man, and everyone was startled.

I looked around the room, and only now did I suddenly realize that this room had no windows, and if the door was closed, it could be said that it was impermeable, and we were in the courtyard just now, and we did not notice the light of the kerosene lamp at all.

The room was large, but there was nothing but a coffin in the center.

Zhong Daochang recovered from the fright, and scolded and said: "Fuck, just put a coffin and get it, and even put a portrait, scared Lao Tzu to death." ”

Zhong Daochang was also unlucky, he wanted to pick a bigger room to sleep in, but whoever wanted to encounter something terrible, now he didn't dare to run around, for fear of encountering other dangers.

Qiu Sanye walked into the house, he walked around the coffin, just now he told me that this yard is used to park coffins, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.

There was a lot of paper money scattered on the ground, Qiu Sanye bent down and picked up a few, stretched out to the flame of the kerosene lamp, and the paper money burned with a pop, Qiu Sanye bowed to the coffin, and said in a loud voice: No wonder! No wonder!

After Qiu Sanye finished speaking, he saw that the flame of the kerosene lamp had stabilized, and even if there was a cold wind blowing, it was no longer jumping like before.

"All out!"

Qiu Sanye said a word, and walked outside.

Zhong Daochang was a little cheap, and said: "Third master, this old thing scared me, what are you doing with it?" ”

Although I was a little curious, I couldn't help but say it, and stretched out my hand to close the door, but when the chief Zhong Dao had finished speaking, I saw the flame jump up again, even more violently than before.

I hurriedly closed the door, turned around and glared at Zhong Daochang, this grandson will die if he doesn't say a few words?

When he came to the courtyard, Qiu Sanye said, "Don't mess into the house." ”

Qiu Sanye looked around, and did not continue, Su Qing was still in front of him, if he said something terrifying, he was afraid that Su Qing would be afraid.

Zhong Daochang couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "Oh, third master, tell me, why don't you mess in?" ”

Su Qing was straightforward, knowing that Third Master Qiu took care of her, so she smiled and said: "Third Master, you say it, no matter how I say it, I am also a policeman, I have seen the corpse, and I am not so afraid, if it is really dangerous, Zimu will protect me." ”

I smiled, "Third Master, say it!" ”

Qiu Sanye took out a cigarette pouch, filled it with tobacco, sat on the old coffin in the courtyard, lit the cigarette, took a few puffs, and told the story of what he saw.

"This courtyard is at the foot of the old tomb mountain, and there are these scrapped coffins in it, which must have been used to park coffins, if I guess correctly, whenever someone dies in the mountain village, the coffin will be parked in this courtyard, and the coffin in that room is the best proof, and there are portraits, indicating that the coffin must contain the dead, but it has not been buried."

When Qiu Sanye said this, he took another puff of cigarette and continued: "You haven't noticed that the lamp oil in the kerosene lamp is about to run out, and it has been burning for at least five or six days, what does this mean?" ”

"The seventh day, the night of the soul!"

I exclaimed, and after Qiu Sanye's reminder, I finally understood the reason.

There are many customs in the countryside, and each place is different, but the "first seven souls" are the consensus of everyone.

It is said that after death, the soul can remain in the body for seven days, and on the seventh day, it will leave the body and return to the place where it once lived, and on the seventh day there will be strange things, some people will hear a knock on the door, some people will hear the sound of turning over the cupboard, and some people will hear the dead talking at night.

Qiu Sanye said: "We recklessly entered the room just now and collided with the soul of the deceased, the dead are great, it is nothing to worship it, more is better than less." ”

Zhong Daochang shrank his neck and quickly covered his mouth, for fear that he would provoke the ghost in the coffin, he was disrespectful just now.

In addition to the room where the coffin is kept, there are three other rooms around.

I let Qiu Sanye live in one room by himself, Qiu Sanye is strong, if there is danger, he can deal with it himself, Zhong Daochang and Feng Chao live in one room, although the two of them have not cultivated their strength, they can take care of each other when they live together.

As for Su Qing?

Naturally I live in the same room, in the weird mountain village, Su Qing doesn't dare to stay by herself, with me, I can take care of her at any time, although the relationship between the two of us has not been broken, but everyone has known it for a long time.

I came to the door of the room, gently pushed the door open, and found that it was very shabby, but I could barely rest, although there was a futon in the black coffin, but I didn't dare to take it out, because Shi Niang's body was lying inside, if I took it out and gave it to Su Qinggai, Leng Bing Shi Niang would definitely clean me up.

I simply cleaned up the house, then took out my Taoist robe, and then spread it on the ground, so that Su Qing could lie on it and rest, so that he could barely make up for the night.

Su Qing didn't refuse, she completely regarded me as her boyfriend, so she lay down on the robe, her perfect figure was undoubtedly revealed, and she couldn't help but think about it, lonely men and widows in the same room, what a good opportunity, if something doesn't happen, wouldn't it be better than a beast!

I leaned towards Su Qing, stretched out my hand and touched her, and before I could develop further, Su Qing took out a stick from his side and hit me directly.

I didn't expect that what Su Qing was holding in her hand was the hemp rope set I asked Feng Chao to bring over, and I don't know when she brought it in.

Su Qing said: "I've been guarding against you for a long time, it's better to be honest with me." ”

I dodged the hemp rope and said speechlessly: "I'm not a pervert either, what are you hiding from me?" ”

Su Qing put the hemp rope in front of him, and said with a slightly red face: "You are a stinky rascal, you can't touch my body until the relationship is confirmed." ”

I grinned, Su Qing was afraid that I was in danger, and insisted on coming with me, a girl can do this for me, I am already very satisfied, in this dilapidated room, let her sleep on the ground, Su Qing has no complaints, which makes me extremely moved.

I teased Su Qing a few words, then let her continue to rest, I walked around the room, and found no danger, so I sat cross-legged on the ground, ready to practice qigong.

"Da Da Da ......"

A series of strange noises suddenly appeared, waking me up from my cultivation state.

I thought it was the wind in the yard, so I didn't pay much attention to it, because the climate is low at night in the mountain village, and there are often gusts of cold wind, and it is common for some noises to occur.

Unexpectedly, the sound became louder and louder, not like the sound of the wind at all, and gradually approached the direction of the courtyard.

"Bang!"

The gate opened, and then there was a rhythmic sound, as if something was bouncing around in the yard.

I quickly got up, took out the black coffin from my pocket, and was about to walk outside, but thinking that Su Qing was in the house by herself, if she woke up and couldn't see me, she would definitely panic, I reached out and pushed Su Qing a few times, and quickly pushed her awake.

Su Qing opened her eyes, she also heard the strange sound, her eyes suddenly widened, and she wanted to speak to me, I quickly covered her mouth, so as not to startle the snake, I want to see who is doing the trick!

In my opinion, the noise in the middle of the night is mostly caused by Master Lu and others making trouble, Guo Junlin wants to test our reality and take advantage of our sleep is the best time.

I went to the door, opened it a gap, and looked out......
