The old man Wang in the coffin, from the angle from which I was standing, although his eyes were generally closed, there was still a slight slit, as if he was not closed. The soles of his feet are crossed in a scissor shape, and there is a hemp rope at the ankle that binds the two feet together, which is a funeral custom that has continued. His hands hung down on his sides, and the little thumb of his right hand was slightly cocked, forming a small angle between him and his ring finger.

This posture, this movement, is exactly the same as when the third child fell to the ground earlier!

I immediately understood what was going on.

When the lid of the coffin was opened, the first person to see it was the third child. When the child began to exclaim, the third child rushed in with him, and it was at that time that she saw that the coffin had been opened. And during the time when the child was playing in the hall until he screamed, he did not see the coffin lid opened, otherwise he would not have answered when his mother asked him so.

So I can basically conclude that the time when the coffin lid is opened must be after the child screams and before the third child appears. I was one of the people present at the time, so I remember that it was only about 10 seconds at most, and after the child was rescued, he had symptoms of shock on the ground, and according to my treatment, it was also proved that his shock was due to the presence of another ghost in his body, which squeezed out the child's own original soul.

After the child fell to the ground, all kinds of phenomena, including the stiffness of the body, were completely consistent with the old man Wang in the coffin at this moment, so it proved that the ghost that got into the child's body at that time was not someone else, but the old man Wang himself.

The lid of the coffin was also opened by Old Man Wang's own ghost, and the reason should be that he heard his grandson's screams and knew that his grandson was in danger, so he didn't care so much, so he ran out to save him. Although I don't know much about the ghost's way of thinking, I definitely know more than anyone present, so I think that the ghost of Old Man Wang came out of the coffin at that time, which shows that before that, its ghost stayed in the coffin, that is, from the moment he died, he had actually accepted his fate, obediently stayed in his body, waiting to be led the way.

I asked the boss, "What's the matter with your father's little finger on his right hand, and how can he have an orchid finger?" The eldest said that when his father was young, he went up the mountain to chop firewood and accidentally cut his finger, and since then he has not been able to roll it back, leaving him with a disability. I asked him again, did your father's eyes not close when he was dying? Because it is true that there are many people who die due to respiratory failure, which affects the nerves, so that the eyelids are in a highly tense state at the moment of death, and if they do not artificially close their eyes, it is easy to close their eyes as the corpse stiffens.

In Chinese culture, death is not a good word in any era.

But the boss said that this is impossible, his father's eyes were smoothed by himself, and the rural people care about this, no matter what, it is impossible for his father's eyes to go into the coffin without closing. The boss also asked me, did you knock over the coffin and shock my father's eyes? I gave him a blank look and said, how is this possible, why are you still opening your eyes after being dead for so long? Watching the excitement or basking in the sun?

It was precisely because of the boss's answer that I thought that Old Man Wang's eyes were slightly open, which should be the moment when his ghost decided to come out of the coffin. Seeing his grandson being bullied by some inexplicable ghosts, even if he is a new ghost after his death, he has to protect himself desperately. But it was precisely because of the relationship between the new ghost that he couldn't master the way, which led to his protection squeezing out the child's soul instead, causing the child to suddenly fall to the ground and stiffen while crying.

However, it stands to reason that the child's soul was brought back by me, and I also forced Old Man Wang out of the child's body, and the problem he was most worried about was solved, and he should return to his body at this moment and continue to look at it. And I helped him, he should thank me for the reason, why did I encounter such a great resistance when I wanted to close the lid of the coffin just now?

Unless there is only one reason: the force that does not let me close the lid of the coffin is not Old Man Wang himself!

This also shows that Old Man Wang's ghost did not return to his body after last night, but has been outside. So I took a closer look at the footprints on the powder on the ground, and then looked at the shoes on the old man's corpse.

So by this time, everything was clear. I quickly brushed up in my heart, after the old man Wang died, he set up a mourning hall, and the incense of worship attracted the nearby wandering ghosts and wild ghosts to steal food, when the old man Wang's little grandson Liao Yuxuan was playing in the hall, because the children had no distractions, so that they could see more things that adults could not see, and bumped into the group of lonely ghosts who came to steal food, the child was scared and cried, and the old man Wang stepped forward to save his grandson but let his grandson's soul go out of his body, and after I rescued Liao Yuxuan and set up a formation outside the house, Old man Wang's ghost was in the house and those lonely ghosts confronted, during which one of the ghosts knocked over the vinegar bottle, I found a clue to close the coffin lid after entering the house, but encountered resistance and resistance, the reason is very likely that the old man's body is an empty skin bag at the moment, and the ghost wants to drill when he sees the hole, which is the same reason as the little wooden man commonly used by the master.

Those lonely ghosts, among them, the old woman with a three-inch golden lotus, since she was able to grasp the child's hand like that, it showed that its strength was not small. The power of the ghost generally comes from the length of time after death as a wandering ghost, as well as the strength of the obsession. The fact that there are bruises like that shows that this old woman is not small. After all, a woman from a large family should not be without incense after death, either she has been deprived of class before she dies, or she died unjustly, either way, it will cause her resentment.

When I thought of this, I said to the eldest and the second, you two men come in quickly, lift up your father's coffin, and then close the lid, leaving only an opening for me. The boss asked me how big I wanted to speak, and I said it was the same size you saw it last night.

The brothers began to do it in a hurry, and in the meantime they were in a panic and trampled on the flour ash I had sprinkled on the ground, but fortunately I didn't need to use it anymore. When the brothers had laid the coffin flat and closed the lid, leaving only a two-inch opening, I asked them to stand aside and look into their father's eyes, and when the eyes were closed, the two of you closed the lid of the coffin too!

After speaking, I stepped on the gang, passed the incense in my right hand to my left hand and held it, pinched a two-finger decision with my right hand, piled up the opening of the coffin lid, and wrote while chanting aloud:

"Three parts of the gods, eight scenes have been clear. I call you today, and return to God and spirit. Just like the law! ”

It's a reincarnation mantra, and I've recited it three times. The so-called "three parts" refer to the fact that people are divided into upper, middle and lower three yuan palaces, and each palace has eight true gods. The upper Yuan Palace is the thinking and thought, the Zhongyuan Palace is the energy and charm, and the lower Yuan Palace is its own vitality. Although the old man Wang is dead, he is also a newly deceased person, and his humanity has not been forgotten, but under the order, he can only return to his own body. This mantra is recited three times, and the law is decreed, and it is urgent and non-negotiable. In this way, I can let the ghosts of Old Man Wang stay outside at the moment, and don't make trouble for me, so that I can clean up these lonely ghosts and wild ghosts in peace of mind.

At this time, the second brother said, big brother, dad closed his eyes! So the boss began to exert force, and with a bang, he closed the lid of the coffin tightly.

I said to the eldest and second, okay, there's nothing to do with you here, you all get out, turn on the lights in the house before leaving, and close the door! The boss is quick and turns on the lights and closes the door at once. Originally, the lights of the mourning hall were a little brighter, but I was afraid that the ghosts would run out later, so in this small room, in the dim light, it was just me and a coffin containing the dead, and three other ghosts that I couldn't see.

The incense in my hand is already half burning, and I have to end it all before the incense is finished. It's not that I'm not afraid of these ghosts, but even if I know I'm afraid, I have to do something. I began to walk towards a door on the side of the mourning hall, and it was from this position that Liao Yuxuan saw the ghosts in the house last night, and according to his description, those ghosts came out of the house. I'm going to close the door and press the purple light on the palm of my left hand on the door, so that when I start to collect the ghosts, the ghosts won't run back, and if they themselves are hidden in the house at the moment, I can check the hall safely.

I walked around the coffin of the old man Wang, my left hand ready to chop, and my right hand put Xiangping in front of my eyes, and the movement of the smoke told me that there were no other ghosts here, and if there were, the smoke would change rapidly. Another purple microsh was pressed on the door of the hall, and then the door of the inner room was opened.

This is the first time I walked into the back room, I didn't know where the light switch was, it was dark in front of me, but at this time the eldest and second child outside the door were silent again, so it was quiet all around, and I could even hear my nervous heartbeat. Habitually, the light switch is usually on the wall of the door, so I began to reach out and touch the wall, this process of searching I was very anxious, but the more anxious I became, the more I was in a hurry. Finally, I touched a rope, which was the pull switch of the lamp, and after breathing a sigh of relief, I pulled the switch all at once.

The moment the lights came on, there was a sound of the door closing behind me, and I quickly looked back to see that the door of the inner room had been closed by a force, and now I had no way to escape, so I reached for the door and tried to open it, but I met the same resistance as I had just pushed the lid of the coffin, and no matter how I pulled it, the door did not move.

And when I turned around, I suddenly saw an old woman with white eyes, scattered to the sides, wrinkled, pale, with loose hair, and an unhappy face with a gritled tooth.
