Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 1374: Midnight Ghost Knocks Coffin
He Ann had reason to listen. It happened that these days were on vacation. The wife took her son out to play with the wind. She called the attorney building for a few days and took me straight to her home.
He An's hometown, a few hundred kilometers away in the countryside, I followed him on a long car for a whole day and climbed the mountain road for a while before arriving in the evening.
The village is remote, the wooden alley fence walls, and many places still retain a very ancient look.
As soon as I entered the village, I heard a very strange noise, a few steps closer, which was completely clear. It was the mourning of the dead!
“The village seems dead.” I said.
“Mm-hmm.” He Ann nodded. “Villagers' customs are still very old. Once someone dies, it takes 28 days to play around the time of burial. ”
We walked a few dozen more meters along the country trail and saw a small courtyard with a white lining shed.
He Ann's body trembled and hurried to the past.
“What's the matter?” I saw something wrong with his divine colour and asked hastily.
“This is my house...”
He Ann told me on the road that there were only elderly parents in the family, and now their family has built a spiritual shed. Naturally, they were terrified and rushed to the past.
“Ho An is back?” A woman walking in with burning paper saw He Ann greeting her.
“Well, Aunt Zhang, this is...” He Ann's face has changed.
“Ann, why are you back?” Without waiting for the old lady to talk, she walked out of the courtyard another elder who was in the middle of the sixth quarter of the year. Although his hair was mostly white, his eyes were twinkling. Although his expression was very sad and very depressing, he did not look like an ordinary villager.
“Dad, my mom, she...” He Ann hurried up, his footsteps were a little twitchy.
“Cough! What are you thinking? Me and your mother are fine. It's Kikuchi who passed away and I haven't been able to get through to you. ”
“Daisy?” He An put down his suspended heart, but he was still extremely sad and confused: “What happened to Chrysanthemum, when I came back a few months ago, wasn't it okay? ”
“Hey, who knows.” He Father sighed: “All of a sudden, a strange illness occurred. The townspeople rushed to the hospital, but when they got to the hospital, they were all cold, and there was no way to save them. It's not, pulled back again. Alas, this kid Kikuchi..."
He An trembled and couldn't talk to me. He walked straight into the spiritual shed.
The spiritual shack is very large, with a series of long firecrackers inside that smell like burning paper. Hanging in the middle of the black and white photo is a girl with two big braids and a full smile on her face. I can see that she was very beautiful.
Many of the villagers spontaneously sat there burning paper, and a few of the old ladies cried silently.
He Ann burned some knife paper in front of the spirit and met his mother before putting her heart down completely. However, his expression was particularly sad, and he reached out and wiped tears and turned to introduce me: “Xiao Ju is an orphan in the village. Since she was a child, she could not speak. When she was a teenager, her mother did not know where she was going, and her father was sentenced to death, so she was adopted by my father at home. For so many years, like my own sister, I didn't expect this back..."
I slapped him on the shoulder, didn't say anything.
I was just going home with him to see which of his ancestors had left behind some shady things. There was nothing there to protect their spirits, but I didn't expect to catch a funeral.
He Ann cried in front of the spirit for a while, which held up the grief and introduced me to his father.
The old man is also a lawyer, but now that he's older and doesn't really like city life, he's always lived in the countryside.
As soon as she heard that I was the famous Master Zhang Jiulin Zhang of Hehe, she grabbed my hand and asked him, “Master Zhang, show me what's wrong with Kikuchi! ”
Listen to her, Ho Ann and I are a little confused.
People are dead, there's nothing even doctors can do. What else can I see?
Unexpectedly, when he found out who I am, he also said, “That's a problem. The child's illness is a little strange. ”
Daddy He introduced that Daisy had red fever before she died and drilled several snakes out of her mouth and nose, and she immediately lost consciousness. He wondered what was most likely the evil. Now that Chrysanthemum has passed away, but the evil will not be eradicated, I'm afraid it will harm others.
They were both intellectuals, they didn't believe in ghosts at all, but after all these years, they had to believe that there were ghosts in the world. The details of Chrysanthemum's strange illness, they didn't dare to tell the other villagers, they were afraid to cause panic.
So I wanted to show you what happened.
Listen to him, I think it's a little weird, too!
A fever and a snake in the nose. It's a typical trick. Is there any evil trick in the village?
Immediately, I decided to take a closer look.
In order not to alarm the other villagers, He An took me to my room to rest, saying that he would wait until the people left in the second half of the night to open the coffin.
Shortly after I rested in my room, I heard a shout coming from the outside, and then it seemed like a large group of people were running around and the whole village was agitated.
“What's going on?” I walked out of the door somewhat stunned.
“Scammers! Scammers!” Countless villagers screamed and ran away, burning paper in a copper pot, the spiritual shack full of spiritual beards, people backing up into chaos.
At this moment, He An rushed to me too: "Master Zhang, I was looking for you. ”
“What's the matter?” I pointed to the spiritual shed and asked.
“I don't know what happened, there was a sudden banging sound in the coffin, I thought it was wrong at first, it was coming from somewhere else, but the sound got louder and worse. Let's take a closer look, it's coming from the coffin! Chrysanthemum, Chrysanthemum is knocking on the coffin! ”
“Check it out!” As soon as I listened, I hurried up.
The people in the spiritual shed were long gone, leaving nothing but wretched ground.
Knock, knock, knock!
The sound of banging on the coffin was higher than a single sound, and the waves were higher than a single wave. Like the drums of war, the night sky seemed extremely gloomy and horrible.
“Chrysanthemum, what's wrong with you, don't scare Mom...” He Mama sat paralyzed on the floor, shouting with great amazement.
Pa He held her next to him and stared at the coffin in horror.
Knock, knock, knock...
The sound became louder and louder, and the thick wooden coffin trembled from left to right.
