Savage Secret

() The more we walked towards the west end of the village, the more deserted we felt.I don't know if it was frightened by the savages, but all the houses in this half of the village closed their courtyard doors tightly, and even if a person passed by occasionally, he walked with his head down and hurried, unwilling to stop at all.However, Lao Niu and I were indifferent, laughing at the cowardice of Yuandong Bay as we walked.

The door of Tian Yumin's house was half-hidden, and there were elegiac couplets floating on the door, which should have been pasted for them by their relatives and friends. Now that there is no one in the house, naturally there is no need to knock on the door. I slowly opened the door and saw it at a glance. Go to the coffins parked in the big house behind.Tian Yuan probably saw it too, he said in a trembling voice behind me: "Brothers, let's really go in!"

As I walked, I said to Tian Yuan: "If you come, you will be safe! Tian Yuan, isn't there just a few dead people in the coffin? What are you afraid of?"

The old cow said to me: "This child is full of the poison of feudal thought. Why didn't he find out when he was breaking the four olds and fighting bulls, ghosts and snakes? If he was found out, he should have been regarded as an idiot long ago. Outdated objects, criticize and criticize well!"

Tian Yuan timidly said: "Brothers, back then I was a Red Guard soldier who firmly supported the party. I was one of the best in the Zhongzi Dance and memorized the quotations by heart, but I have forgotten it now!"

Lao Niu laughed and said to Tian Yuan: "I haven't forgotten the character Wu'er, come and dance for me, let me see how you look like?"

Tian Yuan said: "I'm not a woman, I have a figure, but I think this place is quite gloomy, let's not go in!"

I stared at the several coffins in the room, walked in slowly, and found that the room was quite large, and it would not be too crowded for four coffins.There is nothing in the room except the coffin tribute table and the brazier for burning paper money. There is only a broken cabinet and a few piles of farm tools in the corner. It may be that after the accident of this family, the helpers cleaned up the other things in the room. went elsewhere.There is only one window in the big house, which is covered with white paper, and the outside is covered with a thick layer of dust, so that no light can get in. Even though the door is open during the day, it looks dark.Coupled with the paper money and incense ash everywhere, the elegiac couplets hanging on the wall, and a few coffins inside, it is even more gloomy.It should have been several days that no one has paid attention to it. The coffin has been covered with a layer of dust, and there are a few cobwebs on the bench under the coffin.

"Tie Yan, come and see!" Lao Niu stood beside the coffin and shouted to me.

On the coffin lid that the old cow showed me, there were five very strange black holes, four in the front and one in the back. They were big and small, very rough, and there was no pattern, and there were some cracks around the holes. sign.The hole seemed to have pierced through the coffin lid, and the bottom was so dark that it couldn't be seen clearly. Looking at the other coffins, they also had these holes in the top, but the positions were slightly different.

Since ancient times, the coffin has to be tightly sealed, lest insects and mosquitoes outside get in and hurt the corpse, or the corpse inside will change after absorbing the air!Looking at the black holes on the coffins, I wondered, "What the hell do you mean? It's too unsuitable to Chinese customs! The custom here is to leave a hole for the dead to let them drink a few mouthfuls of yellow spring water." , take a few more breaths of the underground soil?"

The old cow climbed on the coffin, aimed his eyes at the small hole, and looked inside: "Aren't they dead?"

Hearing what the old cow said, I was depressed for a while: "Think about it with your bull's head, who the hell is a big living person going to live in a coffin all day long?"

The old cow said solemnly: "Tie Yan, I heard that some people go to the coffin in the cemetery to spend the night in order to find excitement! There is also a saying abroad that if a person who is seriously ill and is about to die goes into the coffin If you stay overnight, the yin in the coffin can help people get rid of disasters and prolong life! Think about it, if there are living people living in it, there must be a ventilation hole on it, otherwise it will not suffocate to death."

I laughed and said, "Who came up with this method? It's so wicked. Do you want to starve all the doctors in the world to death? However, this method sounds good, old cow. When we go back, I will give it to you." Send a coffin to the family, and you will live in it every day from now on!"

The old cow looked disapproving: "If you live, you can live, if you live early, if you live late, everyone has that day, who the hell can escape!"

The truth is always so ugly, but also so convincing!I am completely speechless.

I stared at the holes on the top of the coffin, trying to figure out what was the mystery inside. Is it true that this family is trying to use this method to resurrect as Lao Niu said?Impossible, both Feng Ling and the store owner said that the chest of this family was cut open, how could they still come back alive?I tried to lift the lid of the coffin with my hands, but it didn’t move. I guess it was nailed to death, so I said to the old cow: “The coffin has been nailed to death. If there are no tools, I’m afraid I can’t open these coffins?”

The old cow pointed to the pile of farm tools in the corner of the room and said to me: "There may be something we want there!".

Tian Yumin probably doesn't specialize in hunting. Their family has a complete set of agricultural tools, including columbine, plow, hoe, rake, crowbar, shovel, and big ax for chopping wood. These things are enough for us.I grabbed a shovel and a crowbar. The old cow looked at it for a long time, then lifted the shovel, and put the hatchet on his shoulder. I said to the old cow: "Old cow, don't you think you want to take this The coffin was split, which is too cruel!"

The old cow laughed and said, "Where are you going? I'm afraid that if there is a corpse in the coffin, I'll chop off its head with an axe!"

I shook my head: "Now you are suspicious in broad daylight, and you are talking nonsense about deceitful corpses. You have the nerve to say that Tianyuan's thinking is old, and that your will is as strong as steel. I think your will is a rusty waste. The iron slag will disappear as soon as the wind blows!" I said while looking for a gap, and inserted the shovel and crowbar into the coffin, and the old cow also inserted the iron shovel.

Tian Yuan saw that we were about to open the coffin, so he ran in from the door and grabbed Lao Niu and said, "Two brothers, what are you doing? Doing this will disturb the souls of the dead!"

The old cow said to Tian Yuan: "Tian Yuan, if you are afraid, stay away, don't get in the way here, and block your desire and progress of Du Ge and me!"

I was too lazy to listen to what Lao Niu said, so I said to Lao Niu: "Old Niu, I'm ready!"

"Rise the coffin to get rich, good luck! One, two, three, start!"

"Creak! Creak!" The sound of nails being pulled out of the wood echoed in the small and dark room, very ear-piercing.Watching the gap like a huge black mouth on the side of the coffin widen and widen, my heart became more and more nervous.I said it was easy just now, but it was the first time for me to do such a thing as opening a coffin. Even though I knew it was daytime and not when zombies or ghosts were active, my heart was still fuzzy.

I guess the old cow is no better than me. He is prying the iron shovel with one hand and holding the hatchet with the other, staring at the big black mouth of the coffin, always on guard against any accidents.

"Bang!" The room suddenly went dark, and when I looked again, I found that the door was closed!In an instant, my eyes were pitch black, and I felt as if I had fallen into a bottomless abyss. The hairs all over my body stood on end, and my heartbeat became faster and faster. Damn, are there really ghosts in this world?
