Chapter 905: The Ghost Elephant of the Sinking Coffin
"Master, please speak. ”
Hearing the old Taoist priest's words, the eight 'coffin bearers' nodded their heads and looked at him seriously.
They know the horror of the evil ghosts, and aren't Widow Zhang and Li Ergou living examples, so they are full of awe and trust in Lao Dao.
Lao Dao narrowed his eyes in satisfaction, and then he said:
"Remember, this coffin is not the same as your usual one. ”
"When carrying the coffin, the coffin must be three feet above the ground, and there must be no deviation. The process should be as smooth as possible, and it should be carried to the burial place in one breath, and it should not be landed halfway. ”
"Third, we must have respect for the deceased in the coffin, and we must not be half-hearted, we must not speak, and we must not be angry at the coffin!
Yang sprinkled once and said it all the time, and the spitting stars of the old way are flying around, not to mention that the body bones are solid enough, and the atmosphere does not take a breath.
However, this old man is indeed talking about such a reason, the wooden coffin is popular, and there are naturally more taboos than when the ordinary coffin is raised.
Of course, the eight big men have no opinions, they are like chickens pecking rice, and their heads are not to mention how diligent they are.
After explaining this, Lao Dao pinched his fingers again, and then turned to face Old Man Zhang, arching his fist:
"When the old man sees him off, you can start!"
Old man Zhang responded with a depressed face, his face was like dirt, his old eyes were red, and he looked grief-stricken.
The body, which was originally quite strong, seemed to age rapidly in a few hours.
The whole person was almost completely devoid of energy, his vitality was a little dimmed, his eyes were full of sorrow than death, and he held his chest for a long time, and then slowly picked up a bowl of white water on the table, and took a sip of it tremblingly.
Burst!!
Immediately afterwards, he smashed the small bowl to the ground with all his might, and it shattered in an instant!
The muddy old tears fell, and the old man sobbed as he slowly walked to the coffin, poked out his wrinkled hand, and knocked softly on the coffin board three times.
The first sound is soft.
The second sound is slightly heavier.
The third voice was urgent......
This is all arranged for him in advance, and the meaning is very simple, it is to hope that the deceased in the coffin will rest in peace as soon as possible and reincarnate as soon as possible.
Mr. Zhang wanted to cry very much, and he wanted to open the coffin and hug his daughter out, but in a few moments, he had already cried into a tearful person.
The old Taoist priest sighed with a complicated expression, glanced at the eight big men who were ready to go, and drank in a deep voice: "Get up the coffin!"
"Yes!"
The big men responded in unison, their movements were sophisticated and quick, and they were quite skillful in lifting the wooden frame to resist on their shoulders, bending their knees and half-squatting and bowing their bodies, and began to work hard.
"One, two, three......"
Several people are full of tacit understanding, each find a good angle and work together, the tall man has a lot of strength, it should not take much to carry a coffin, but a strange thing happened.
No matter how these eight strong men carried it, the coffin never moved!
Let them eat and milk with all their strength, and it will be useless!
Wow!
The whole house was in an uproar! Everyone instinctively fell silent!
Eight strong men, and they have always been engaged in the position of carrying coffins, but they can't lift a thin coffin?
Make no mistake!
Such a strange thing not only frightened everyone, but even the big men themselves were shocked.
If it weren't for the scruples that everyone is a fellow villager, and you don't see anyone looking up and looking down, it is estimated that you will just throw off the stretcher and run away at this time!
Meow~~
Suddenly, the big black cat lying on the eaves of the courtyard wall suddenly screamed violently, and the next second it actually went crazy and rushed down from the wall, rushing through the crowd, covered in fluff and fur, and roaring at the hall!
"Oh my God, what's going on?"
The souls of several women who were afraid of cats were almost frightened, and they trembled together, and they were in shock.
The old woman who had been following the village chief cleared her throat and said, "Hey, this widow still doesn't want to leave!"
In front of the hall, the old Taoist priest glanced at the black cat of the uninvited guest, and his old face was almost green.
He grunted a few times in his mouth, and then took out an ancient coin from his bosom and sandwiched it between his index fingers, shook his body, and then quickly popped it out!
Five Emperors Copper Coins?
I was stunned, this old Taoist priest is not only not a magic stick, but also has a lot of magic weapons on his body, and they are all quite pure.
I don't know where the village chief invited me, but I guess it has something to do with the goddess and the old woman.
Whoosh!
As soon as the Five Emperor Coins came out, they immediately bounced towards the top of the coffin like a bolt of lightning!
I just heard as if something had been broken, and there was a crisp sound!
It was obviously hitting the air, but the fried-haired black cat on the ground was 'lying down and shot', and it actually screamed in pain!
The old Taoist priest breathed a sigh of relief and wiped away the sweat that kept dripping down his face.
It can be seen that the attack just now has exhausted a lot of his Dao strength, and he keeps pulling his nose and breathing heavily at this time to ease his breath and stabilize his spirit.
I never thought that the old man Zhang, who had been crying and stunned next to him during this period, suddenly became angry coldly!
Regardless of the Zhang family's obstruction, he rushed forward and kicked the coffin!
It is estimated that the strength of the whole body has been used up, and the coffin is already thin, and it seems to be trembling faintly by kicking.
"What, you don't want to leave yet!?"
"You have done such a shameful thing, our Zhang family's face has been lost by you, and you still have the face to rely on here!"
"I don't have your daughter, did I hear it, I don't want to see you, go, hurry up and let me go!"
Old man Zhang cried a lot, crying and scolding, although his voice was full of anger, everyone heard the sadness, helplessness and sourness implied in it.
The two little hairy children were also stimulated, wah-wow-wow hugging and crying, more exaggerated than when they were in the hall, with snot and tears flowing all over their bodies.
People walked to tea and cooled, and a gust of yin wind blew through the courtyard, as if God felt the sorrow of the Zhang family, so that the wind was mixed with intermittent whimpering sounds.
Maybe it was the old Taoist priest's Five Emperors copper coin that worked, or the old man Zhang's angry reprimand and crying played a role, anyway, the next moment the coffin finally moved and was lifted up by the eight big men.
It's just that it's still very heavy, and several people are quite struggling to lift, with red faces and thick necks, and green tendons on their arms.
After death, if there is a grievance that has not dissipated, there will be a phenomenon of sinking coffins.
Just like the scene just now, Widow Zhang's soul appeared directly above the coffin, looking at herself and looking at the nostalgic person, and it was not the cat that Lao Dao dispersed, but the soul of Widow Zhang.
It's not a probation, it's a forcible drive, I sank my voice, so ......
"Mother-in-law, what's wrong, now that the coffin can move, is it okay?" the village chief was as surprised as the other villagers, and couldn't help but ask the old woman of the goddess.
The old woman pondered for a long time before she shook her head silently: "No, it's not that it's okay, but there's something big!"
