I don't know it, I was startled, and my face became similar to yesterday, although it wasn't so white, but it was abnormal.

Even the originally red and swollen face on the right side is only swollen but not red, and on the left side of the face, the place where Zhao Ruoxian kissed yesterday has a slight trace of blood.

"Hurry up, don't miss the hour. The master held a small gong in his hand and urged, and after finishing speaking, he struck it directly.

I didn't have time to think too much, so I picked up a trumpet and a guide flag, walked to the front of the team, and shouted: "Ignite the cannon, let's go~~"

The crackling sound of firecrackers rang out, and the group walked in line towards the Land Temple, with Master and Uncle following me, one beating a small gong and the other playing a small drum.

Behind is Du Zeming and his younger brother carrying a basket of sacrifices, Du Yi followed behind, holding her mother's posthumous photo, and the relatives and friends behind were all wearing linen and filial piety, all holding a sponge cushion in their hands.

The distance between the Du family and the land temple at the entrance of the village is not far, so you can set off at half past seven.

I finished blowing a mourning trumpet, then turned around, waved the guide flag in my hand, and shouted: "Send condolences~~~"

Except for the master and uncle, all the relatives and friends in the back knelt down and cried loudly.

Crying and mourning is an important part of funeral etiquette, Confucian etiquette, from the Zhou ceremony, rose in the Han and Jin dynasties, to the Northern and Southern Dynasties more popular, inherited for more than 1,000 years, is a major feature of the funeral customs of the Confucian cultural circle in China and even East Asia.

Crying and mourning is to cry in the form of sending the mourning of the death of relatives, to commemorate the life deeds of the deceased in the form of singing, when the funeral or worship the temple, someone must cry, especially the descendants, otherwise it will be regarded as disrespectful.

The size of the mourning voice is also very important, saying that if the deceased is not accompanied by the cry that resounded through the world on the Huangquan Road, it will be passed on as a laughing stock within a radius of dozens of miles, and its descendants will also be regarded as unfilial and rebellious.

The louder you cry at the funeral, the greater the sadness, and the more prosperous the future generations, so generally rich people will invite professional mourners to help cry together, and Lao Du's family also invited three professional mourners.

The voice of professional crying and mourning is very loud, and it is also very good at interpreting sadness, and the income is not cheap, and it is a hundred yuan to cry for less than an hour.

Worshipping the temple is a more complicated process, 50 meters a worship, to the land temple to do the sacrificial rituals, all the immediate family members have to go up one by one, and finally have a public sacrifice, begging the land father-in-law to bless the people in the village to be safe and sound, and live a long life.

Although it was the first time for me to preside over the temple, there was nothing wrong during the period, because I watched my grandfather preside over it too many times, and I was already familiar with it.

Because the temple is near, we rushed back to Du's house at half past eight, and the meals were ready, because it was buried in the afternoon, so the whole village did not have to eat together for breakfast.

After eating, I went to the mourning hall to take a look at the body, and turned my hand out of my sleeve, my nails were completely blackened, and they had become very sharp.

This time, without turning your lips, you can vaguely see two fangs on your lower lip.

The fangs are one and a half inches long, and the black armor is one and a half inches long.

This is almost the condition for corpse transformation, but it must be deceived when the yin qi is strong after dark.

I picked up a piece of white cloth next to the coffin, covered it with the body, and then tidied up the white cloth a little to make sure it was completely wrapped, and then told the people around me that the coffin could be covered.

The two big men lifted the lid of the coffin and covered it on the coffin, and the master and uncle picked up the coffin nails and hammers and prepared to nail the coffin.

I hurriedly said, "Don't nail it yet." ”

"Why? Master Qin just said that he would fill in the soil in three days. Master asked suspiciously.

I shook my head and said, "Wait until the soil is filled to seal the coffin, and besides, only the direct descendants can be left to guard the mourning hall, and no one else can enter the mourning hall until they are buried." ”

"Okay, you have the final say. Master put away his tools, and there was no doubt about it.

If the coffin is sealed now, the zombie after the corpse will rush to the coffin for the first time, and the zombie can strengthen its body by flushing the coffin, which is equivalent to a process of breaking the cocoon into a butterfly and being reborn from the fire, once the coffin comes out, it is even more difficult to deal with.

If it is allowed to transform into a corpse naturally, without going through the complicated and difficult rush to the coffin, its strength will not be strengthened, as long as it is fast enough, it will be easy to subdue.

However, there is no need to explain these things to them so clearly, so as not to cause unnecessary panic, and the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better.

Although they are professional and superordinate Taoist priests, they generally do not have accidents, but once there is an accident, they have to kill the master to solve it privately, and they can't help much.

After the coffin was covered, I didn't care anymore because I was so tired that I had to deal with the corpses at night, and it would be difficult to do it if I didn't rest well during the day, and I also needed to prepare things for the corpse fight.

When I got home, I set the alarm clock for 2 p.m., and fell asleep in bed for less than a minute.

I don't know how long I slept, I was woken up by the cry of rhubarb, I quickly got up, looked at the time was only eleven o'clock, I had some doubts in my heart, rhubarb is generally not called during the day, unless there are ill-intentioned people who want to come to the house, it will call a few words, the purpose of calling is not to bite people, but to remind me and grandpa.

"Lao Qin, Lao Qin, open the door. A voice that felt a little familiar came, and I thought about it for a moment, as if it was my best high school classmate Zheng Kangkang.

"Zheng Kangkang?" I hurriedly shouted, this guy was the only good friend I had in high school, a big man of 1.87 meters and a weight of 0.1 tons.

He is the largest person in our school, he is very righteous and arrogant, but he is also very tall, he can't look down on people who are generally grinding and chirping, but he plays very well with me, when I was in high school, I was often teased by Du Yi and their gang, and it was Zheng Kangkang who came out for me.

Zheng Kangkang once liked Du Yi, and after being rejected by Du Yi, he also had a crush on Zhao Ruoxian like me.

I haven't seen each other for more than a year since I graduated, and I was very happy to be able to come, and I suddenly felt sleepy.

"Yes, yes, it's me, hahaha, hurry up and open the door for me. Zheng Kangkang said in a loud voice.

Seeing me talking, Rhubarb didn't call again, I quickly got up and opened the door, only to see that in addition to Zheng Kangkang, there were two other male classmates.

One of them is named Qian Liexian, a rich boy in the county, who was Du Yi's boyfriend in high school, and I don't know if they are still together.

There is also a man named Chen Liang, who is the kind of pure bastard, who knows how to pick up girls and fights all day long, and people who love to study a little bit are not happy to play with him, but he has a good relationship with Du Yi, and he is called Du Yi's male best friend.

The relationship between these two people and me is very average, basically they haven't played together much, especially Zhang Liang, we also fought, in high school, I was teased by them a lot, and once slandered me for stealing money and was almost expelled from school.

I can understand that Zheng Kangkang came to me on purpose, but I don't know why the two of them came.

"What's the matter, you're not welcome?" asked Qian Liexian with a smile.

I smiled and said, "What's the matter, the old classmate is here, it's too late to be happy, hurry up, come in and do it." ”

I hurriedly opened the door and invited them in, Zhang Liang said: "Qin Yisoul, your dog is good, do you sell it? I'll give you five hundred." ”

"I don't sell it, I've been raising it for several years, and my feelings are very deep. I replied with a smile.

Zheng Kangkang cut and said: "Lao Qin, don't bother Chen Liang, he went to his father's dog meat shop after graduating from high school, you have to give the dog to him, and it will soon become dog meat." ”

Hearing Zheng Kangkang's words, I immediately understood why Rhubarb barked, it turned out that he was a dog butcher, and he was very angry, I frowned and said, "Chen Liang, don't fight the idea of Rhubarb, otherwise I won't be done with you." ”

The reason why I say this is because there are often dog thieves in the countryside, and those who steal dogs are cooperating with Chen Liang and his gang of dog meat shops, which is very hateful.

Chen Liang hurriedly said: "No, no, how can I do that, we are all buying at a reasonable price, and we will definitely not buy and sell." ”

I smiled, took out some melon seeds and candies and said, "Three old classmates, I haven't seen you for a long time, and there is nothing delicious in this house, but there are many of these things." ”

"Understand and understand, your family cheated the dead of money, these things used for white things, your family will definitely not be able to eat them. Qian Liexian said with a smile.

As soon as I said this, my face suddenly turned cold, Zheng Kangkang slapped the table and said: "If you two want to talk cool here, get out of here, it's been more than a fucking year since you graduated, and you still can't change your dog to eat shit." ”

"How the are you talking. Zhang Liang turned his head to look at Zheng Kangkang.

Zheng Kangkang stood up directly and said: "Lao Tzu just talks like this, it's okay to joke in front of me, but here in Lao Qin, he makes this kind of joke in a weird way, Lao Tzu just doesn't look good, what's wrong?"

"If it weren't for the girls over there who didn't take us to play, the ghost wouldn't have bothered to come here. Zhang Liang said directly.

Qian Liexian laughed dryly and said, "Okay, okay, they're all classmates, why bother like this?

When I heard the word magic stick, I was a little upset, but I still nodded: "Yes, it can be regarded as inheriting the ancestral business." ”

"Oh~~" Qian Liexian nodded thoughtfully and asked, "That must be very profitable, right?"
