After everyone went out, Lu Changsheng knelt on the ground, looking like he was being punished by Lu Zeng.

In the past, if he made a mistake, he would definitely have a horsewhip, not to mention that he disobeyed his father this time, but this time he did not regret what he did, if he was given a chance to choose, he would still make the same decision.

"Get up. "Surprisingly, Lu Zeng didn't hit him this time.

Lu Changsheng looked at his father curiously, but he couldn't see any expression in his eyes as deep as ancient wells, as if what had happened just now had not happened.

"Today is your birthday, and it's also your mother's death day, eighteen years!" Lu Zeng sighed, "It's time to tell you something." ”

"What's the matter?" Lu Changsheng asked, he always felt that something bad was about to happen.

"Come with me to your mother's grave at night to collect gold. After Lu Zeng finished speaking, he went back to the room, making Lu Changsheng confused.

However, he knew what he was doing to collect gold.

Picking up gold, commonly known as picking up bones, picking up feng shui, also known as "second burial".

The first burial was to place the body in a wooden coffin, "lying" and burying it in the soil, and piling it up into a long-shaped grave, indicating that the person was still "sleeping" and did not erect a tombstone.

In addition to the funeral is very important, the burial is very simple, generally more casual, the edge of the field, the barren slope of Maoshan can be, do not pay attention to "feng shui", but still have to ask Mr. feng shui to determine the direction of the grave, set the time of burial.

After the first burial is five to seven years after the rotting corpse is "cleaned", the tomb is opened on an auspicious day, and the "clean bones" are picked up, which is the meaning of "picking up gold".

Pick up the bones and place them in the clay pot is also called the "gold pot" about two feet high, the diameter of the altar mouth is about seven inches, the appearance of the altar is yellow, there is a relief dragon and phoenix pattern, choose the "feng shui treasure land" to re-officially bury, this is called "the second burial".

"Collecting gold" is an important ritual for the deceased to finally rest in peace, and it is also a serious and solemn custom in many places.

Wu Gu Village has always had such a tradition, but Lu Changsheng had read the book on funeral techniques, her mother had been dead for eighteen years, and it was past the time to pick up gold, and now his father suddenly proposed to pick up gold on his eighteenth birthday, which really made Lu Changsheng incomprehensible.

However, since his father said it, Lu Changsheng naturally would not object, and his father was a very clever burial master, and he knew too much more than him in this regard.

Waiting for Lu Changsheng to walk out, Lu Dahai looked at him with a surprised expression: "Not beaten?"

"Yes, I'm going to pick up gold with my father at night. Lu Changsheng said.

"Picking up gold?" Lu Dahai was stunned, but he didn't care, "It's good that I haven't been beaten, Daddy seems to have changed sex." ”

"What is picking up gold?" Zhou Xingxing couldn't help but be curious.

"A custom that you can follow in the evening. Zhong Youde said ill-intentionedly.

"Picking up gold?" Ning Weiwei was also interested, "Can I do it too?"

"No, pick up gold and jealous women. Zhong Youde directly dispelled his thoughts.

"Why, it's taboo to pick up gold, it can't be something illegal, right?" Ning Weiwei didn't have a good breath.

Lu Changsheng didn't prepare to explain, just took a shower, changed his clothes, and began to prepare the tools to pick up gold at night.

Because of what happened on the martial arts platform, they didn't do anything for a day, they all stayed in the stilted building and didn't go down the mountain.

Only Lu Changsheng's father went down to the stockade and seemed to have disposed of the corpses of the Lin brothers, and he was the only one in the entire stockade who knew what to do.

Compared with people who die normally, people who are killed on the martial arts platform do not need to be dojos, they only need to seal the coffin and then find a hole to bury.

It wasn't until dinner that Lu Zeng came back in his robe, and he didn't have time to eat, so he called Lu Changsheng out and explained a lot of matters, and then he went to the kitchen, got out the leftovers by himself, sat on the stove and chewed them.

Lu Changsheng called Zhou Xingxing and the others out again and asked, "Are you going at night?"

Ning Weiwei shook her head like a rattle, obviously he had already learned from Zhong Youde about picking up gold, and Zhou Xingxing said excitedly: "Go, how can this kind of exciting thing be without me." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Ning Weiwei and said with a smile: "The ugly daughter-in-law will see her mother-in-law sooner or later, why don't you see her tonight?"

Ning Weiwei was terrified, glared at him, and said, "you, I'll stay here and don't go anywhere at night!"

"I'll go. Zhong Youde said and said bluntly, "If you want to learn about Miao Taoism, if you encounter any accidents, you can also help." ”

It was Lu Dahai who glared at him, which made him think of Lu Changsheng's sleepwalking with a little weakness.

After discussing it, they decided to leave Lu Dahai and Ning Weiwei to take care of the house, Zhou Xingxing and Zhong Youde followed to pick up gold, and after Lu Changsheng explained it to them, he called his father and left with his things.

Rhubarb must not be followed, because picking up gold is taboo for cats and dogs, if the corpse in the coffin has not yet decomposed, once the yang energy of the cat and dog sticks up, it is easy to cheat the corpse.

Although Lu Changsheng had corpse control insects, he was not worried about defrauding corpses, but after all, it was his mother, and it was impossible to use corpse control insects to drive them anyway.

The mountain wind is blowing, and the dead mountain road always makes people feel cold down their backs, as if something is following behind.

I don't know how long I walked, Zhou Xingxing felt a little bored, so he said, "You say, will we still run into what happened last time?"

"Gurgle" Lu Changsheng and Zhong Youde both jumped in their hearts, eager to find a piece of cloth to plug his mouth, and gave him thousands of instructions before coming, but they didn't expect this guy to forget the taboo in the end.

Picking up gold is the most taboo person to talk a lot, especially at night, you must not talk nonsense, otherwise it will attract a lot of dirty things.

And Zhou Xingxing also seemed to realize that he should say hello to the mountain ghost before he spoke, so he hurriedly "whined", and then continued: "Okay?"

The two glared at him, but didn't speak, until Lu Zeng, who had been leading the way in front, didn't care about their conversation, just took a flashlight and walked calmly.

From time to time, I will remind them that there is a gap under their feet or something.

For about an hour, when he couldn't see the Wu Gu Village at all, Lu Zeng suddenly stopped, and Lu Changsheng asked, "What's wrong, Daddy?"

"You haven't been to your mother's grave, have you?" Lu Zeng asked.

"No, didn't you tell me that you couldn't come here?" Lu Changsheng said.

"Okay, now I'll tell you why. Saying that, Lu Zeng began to walk forward again, saying as he walked, "The people in the village say that your mother is a grass ghost woman, and the farther away you are buried, the better." ”

"So, you won't let me come to worship my mother, right?" Lu Changsheng asked, but he was a little angry in his heart.

"That's just one of the reasons. Lu Zeng said, and explained, "Another reason is that I don't want anyone to find out about your mother's burial place, otherwise it .........."

"How else?" Lu Changsheng asked, he had an ominous premonition.

Sure enough, Lu Zeng didn't explain, he strode forward, and when he walked to a desolate haystack, Lu Zeng suddenly stopped, and shone a flashlight, saying, "This is your mother's grave." ”

As he spoke, he handed Lu Changsheng a sickle, but Lu Changsheng looked at the haystack blankly and couldn't believe it, even Zhong Youde didn't understand why, this place is not a good acupuncture point at all, it can be said that it is a poor mountain and bad water, and it is simply fatal for future generations to be buried.

Lu Changsheng didn't say anything, he swung the scythe and began to chop down the branches that grew on it, as if he was venting something.

In half an hour, he finally cleared out a small dirt bag, if it weren't for Lu Zeng's guidance, no one would believe that this would be a tomb.

Lu Zeng took out the sacrificial things, and Lu Changsheng slashed the surrounding trees fiercely.

"Little man, come here and worship. Lu Zeng said.

Lu Changsheng put down the sickle, slammed, and knelt in front of the grave, an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart, and this feeling made him very uncomfortable.

For eighteen years, not only did he not see her mother, but he was not even qualified to worship as a son.

Zhou Xingxing and Zhong Youde on the side didn't speak, but Lu Zeng began to read the sacrificial text, which roughly meant that he hoped that Lu Changsheng's mother would not blame them for being disturbed.

After reading the sacrificial text, Lu Zeng said: "Plow the soil!"

Lu Changsheng picked up the hoe and began to dig the soil, because many of them were mountain rocks, so sparks would splash from time to time, and Lu Zeng lit a bonfire on the side.

Zhou Xingxing was scared and excited, afraid because he would see the coffin later, and excited because the third watch came to dig the grave in the middle of the night.

If it weren't for Zhong Youde staring at him all the time, it is estimated that he couldn't help but ask now.

"Hurry up, don't pass the hour!" Lu Zeng said, this sentence seemed to remind Zhong Youde, so he also picked up a hoe to help.

Picking up gold must be within a certain hour, and once the hour has passed, anything can happen.

After another half an hour, he finally got the lid of the coffin, and then Zhou Xingxing also joined in, digging the soil along the entire coffin, and after a while, the entire coffin was exposed, and the pitch-black coffin still maintained its original appearance, and there was not much corruption.

Lu Zeng looked at the time without wavering, and then threw Lu Changsheng a pair of pliers, and he stood at the end of the coffin and said, "Pull out the nails!"

Lu Changsheng didn't ask anything, and began to use pliers to pinch out the nails around the surrounding coffins, a total of seven.

These seven nails are called "descendants nails", and they must be opened by the descendants themselves, and after pulling out the nails, Lu Changsheng stood at the head of the coffin, which means that this means to get ahead.

Seeing that the coffin was about to be opened, Zhou Xingxing suddenly said excitedly: "You say, will there be zombies?"

Lu Changsheng's face changed, even Lu Zeng frowned, glared at Zhou Xingxing coldly, and Zhong Youde directly covered Zhou Xingxing's mouth.

"Knock knock" There was a sudden creepy sound in the coffin, as if the people inside were about to break out of the coffin.

"It's bad!" Lu Zeng's face sank, he was destined not to be calm tonight.......
