Chapter 60: The Dead
Xu Feng had not yet arrived at the door of the Xiangfu, he heard a cry, the sound was like crying, looked up, only to see the funeral white lantern hanging at the door of the Xiangfu, obviously there was a dead person in the house, and he rushed to the wall, and saw a cypress coffin parked in the courtyard.

There are a lot of villagers in the courtyard who are busy everywhere, and in the lobby, kneeling with Xiangfu's family, he saw Xiangling kneeling next to him at a glance, his eyes were red and swollen while burning paper, and at the same time returning gifts to the neighbors and relatives who came in to worship. Among them, there was a woman of fifty or sixty who was crying in the lobby, it should not be the invited mourner, it was a real cry, it should be a relative of the deceased.
He listened for a while, and heard that the old man of Xiangfu died, and the old woman who was crying was the wife, no wonder he was crying so sadly, but he was a little stunned, the old man of Xiangfu should also be fifty or sixty years old, the relatives kneeling in the lobby, and a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties, then this old man of Xiangfu is at least sixty years old, how can he put the coffin in the courtyard and not in the hall.
Xu Feng had heard of some folk customs in his previous life, only people who died violently could not enter the house, could it be that this Xiangfu lord died suddenly, but unfortunately, he did not sympathize with the people of Xiangfu, and he did not sympathize with Xiangling, he was poisoned by ghosts, but she was harmed, she was not generous, but she had a small belly.
He didn't know some folk taboos in this place, but he couldn't wait, there would be a little less chance a moment later, and the ghost poison would deepen by a point, so he ran down from the wall and rushed into the lobby, fortunately, there were no strong people in these neighbors, some were only a few Qi Realm cultivators, and the strongest was still Xiangling, and he didn't have any divine thoughts, so no one found him, and his speed was too fast.
He jumped to Xiangling's feet, got into the white mourning clothes, and climbed to Xiangling's chest, she suddenly sensed something, reacted a little too much, and almost jumped up, Xu Feng hurriedly shouted in a low voice: "Don't move!"
Xiangling looked down and saw the black mouse on her chest, and she was so frightened that cold sweat came out, but the red and swollen eyes were red again, and tears flowed down, Xu Feng scolded the grass in a low voice, crying a fart, Lao Tzu is not here to kill you, Lao Tzu is looking for someone who gives you a ghost poison?
Xiangling trembled, and suddenly cried, as if her heart was full of grievances, which startled him, and sure enough, she saw that the relatives who came in to worship had stolen strange eyes, and it seemed strange why this girl was crying again?
But the old woman, that is, the wife of the old man of the Xiang family, did not cry when she heard this, but rushed over with a scream, like a dog eating, pounced in front of Xiangling, raised her hand and slapped her, beating the corners of Xiangling's mouth to blood, and immediately stopped crying.
Xu Feng was stunned for a moment, but found that Xiangling was not angry, but lowered her head aggrievedly, bit her bloody lip, and didn't speak, when she heard the old woman scolding: "It's all your little slut's fault, if it weren't for you, how could the old man suddenly die violently?
At this time, some relatives came to pull this crazy old woman, and pulled it directly to the backyard before stopping, and elders such as Erniang, who seemed to be Xiangling, whispered to Xiangling: "Xiaoling, don't listen to your aunt's nonsense." The eldest lady is not in a normal mind, how can I blame you for the old man's death?"
Xiangling still bit her mouth and didn't speak, but Xu Feng saw that something was wrong. When it was time for lunch, he sent Xiangling to a secluded room and asked her, "What's going on?" Is it related to the person who gave you candy?
As soon as he spoke, Xiangling's eyes were red again, and when he saw him scolding, he stopped, sobbing and telling what happened during this time.
It turned out that more than 20 days ago, Xiangling received a letter from her father who was seriously ill, that is, the master of the Xiang family, and hurriedly asked for leave to go home, but learned that her father was sick?
At this time, Xiangling had already seen that her father was unconscious, only hanging for half a breath, and she didn't know if she could hold up this long journey, so she was also in a hurry, so she reached a conditional deal with the old man in the robe and saved her father.
Xu Feng sneered: "As a result, your father is still dead, or died violently!
At this point, there is no more to say. Xiangling didn't speak, she knew how to cry, and Xu Feng was upset, so she asked her, what does the old man in the robe look like?
Xiangling seemed to know that the black rat Xu Feng would come to her, so she took out a piece of paper from her arms and opened it to see a human head.
Xu Feng looked at it, it was very kind, but a pair of eyes were evil, he was definitely an evil cultivator, maybe it was this guy who killed her Lao Tzu, and the target was himself, sure enough, it was those **** in Lingcheng who were making trouble, so he asked her if she knew where the old man in the robe was? She shook her head.
Xu Feng had no choice but to target her Lao Tzu's corpse and open the coffin for an autopsy, but Xiangling wanted to speak and stopped, but when she heard his anger, she had to nod: "It's only at night!"
Xu Feng nodded, asked Xiangling to pay attention to some abnormal people at any time, and then went out of Xiangfu, went to the mountains, subdued some mice, trained for a little hour, and made a few wooden blocks, polished, and carved several ordinary herbs.
Although these rats made him worry about educating him a few times, but in the end, before the sunset, he found those herbs, he took out the spirit tripod, made the seal, gathered the fire aura floating in the heaven and earth, gathered into the tripod, threw these herbs into it according to the order and proportion, and finally, smelted into some medicinal powder.
Smelling it, there was a faint aroma, but it made his head dizzy, and he hurriedly used the soul devouring technique before shaking his head fiercely and coming to his senses.
Put away these medicinal powders, and with some awakening pills, seeing that it was already dark, he hurriedly packed up his work, returned to Xiang's house in Xiaomang Town, found Xiangling, gave her the awakening pill to eat, and saw that the villagers had left the compound, leaving only the people who did things, and the cultivation was not very high, so he took this intoxicating medicine powder, and quickly turned around, fascinating these people.
They came to this cypress coffin, Master Xiang has been dead for five days, however, the customs here also have the first seven souls said, so the coffin lid has not yet been covered, and when the first seven arrive, it will be the time to cover the coffin, but only a little gap is exposed, and the research can't see it, which makes him wonder.
Xiangling took a torch, pushed the coffin lid with one hand, put it at the mouth of the coffin, and took a photo.
He didn't need a torch, so he jumped on the edge of the coffin and looked inside, but his hair stood on end: "Grass~ This is your father?"
