Yellow Spring Taboo

Chapter 2 Sleeping in a coffin

Although I was mentally prepared at the beginning, I was still taken aback after hearing Zuo Daoyin's words. I hurriedly asked what that woman was, and why she came to our coffin shop to make such a strange request .

Zuo Daoyin fiddled with the copper coins in the bowl again. He seemed to know something, but he didn't tell me clearly. He just asked me to go to Lao Wang's paper-making shop immediately and ask him to tie seven coins for me. A paper coffin, and the paper coffin must be made of red paper, and the size must be the same as the real coffin. The coffin maker measures seven feet three inches!

Hearing what Zuo Daoyin said, I immediately understood what a red coffin that cannot be painted is called. A red paper coffin tied directly with red paper does not need red paint.

And after that?
Tell the old Wang's family that the paper coffins must be completed within one day, and after they are finished, put some scraps of paper in the coffins, just like putting wood chips in a real coffin, and then ask him to send the seven paper coffins to the Your coffin shop, wait for that woman to pick it up.Remember, only you will be present at that time, and then you can just treat her as an ordinary guest. As for the price, you can negotiate as you like, but you must not let her feel that you have discovered that she is not a human being.

"that's it?"

"Well, if everything goes well, you've passed this catastrophe. If you fail to talk to her, run away immediately, and then come here to find me."

"it is good."

After saying goodbye to Zuo Daoyin, I immediately came to Lao Wang's paper-making shop.

When I came here, the paper-making shop was still closed. At this time, Wang Feiyang was making this set of paper-making spiritual rooms in the store. This Wang Feiyang is the son of Boss Wang. He was the same age as me. We used to play together often. It's always been good.

Seeing me coming, Wang Feiyang put down his work, and he grinned at me, who never liked to smile very much, and asked me when I came back from school, and why I came here in the middle of the night.

I replied that I had been back for a few days, and I didn't talk nonsense afterwards, and immediately asked Wang Feiyang if his father was at home. .

Wang Feiyang replied that his parents had gone to Zhangjiacun to send the funeral home and would be back in a while, and then asked me what was going on with my nervousness.

So, I immediately told Wang Feiyang what I had encountered in the past few days. With three points of awe, you will definitely not be an atheist.

Therefore, Wang Feiyang was also a little anxious, and asked me if I offended someone and made a mess to harm you.

I replied that unless someone was jealous of my handsomeness, otherwise I could offend someone, not to mention that it was not my fault that I was handsome, and I didn't bother to talk nonsense with Wang Feiyang, so I asked him directly if their paper-making shop could be opened. Seven paper coffins the same size as real coffins were made in one day.

Wang Feiyang thought for a moment, and replied that there are eight members of his family, and even his second uncle's two nine-year-old twins can make paper, and they should be able to drive them out if they do it overnight.

I breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and hurriedly said yes, when your father comes back, you can start making it right away, as for the money, I will pay after my grandfather comes back.

Wang Feiyang nodded. Seeing the seriousness of the situation, he called his father at that time, and then called the pair of twin brothers and sisters from his second uncle's house to start preparations.

I played with Wang Feiyang's twin siblings here for a while, and didn't leave until his parents returned with the coffin.

Afterwards, I was not in the mood to go back to the coffin shop, and my heart was always a little nervous, so I went directly to the Internet cafe. Until the next evening, Wang Feiyang called me and asked if the coffin was ready, would you like to send it to me.

I said yes, I'm in an Internet cafe now, and I'll be back right away.

When I got home, Wang Feiyang had already delivered the seven paper coffins to the door of my coffin shop, and then he and I carried the seven paper coffins into the coffin shop.

After finishing everything, the sky was getting dark, I was actually quite scared, and wanted Wang Feiyang to accompany me, but because Zuo Daoyin emphasized that I must be alone when the woman came to pick up the coffin, so I could only Let Wang Feiyang leave first.

However, Wang Feiyang's home is not far from my place. If something happens to me, he will come over as soon as I make a phone call. Thinking of this, I feel a little more at ease.

It was probably at this point that the woman appeared a few days ago, but it was almost dark and I didn't see her coming. I suddenly became very uncertain in my heart, and I didn't know whether the woman would come or not.

After dinner, the woman still didn't come, and I didn't dare to go to bed, so I just sat on the Eight Immortals table in the lobby and waited.

Soon the moon was already high in the night sky, I checked the time on my phone, it was almost eight o'clock, I don't think she will come tonight.

A burst of drowsiness hit me, I yawned, I didn't plan to wait any longer, I was just about to get up to close the door, when a voice suddenly sounded that made my heart beat violently.

Boom!dong dong dong!
I turned my head suddenly and saw a very terrifying scene.

The lids of the seven paper coffins neatly placed in the lobby suddenly began to jump up and down, as if someone was trying to push the lids open and sit up from inside.

My heart immediately rose to my throat, this is a seven-mouth paper coffin, let alone why it suddenly beat, the sound exactly like the real coffin was enough to scare me half to death.

I turned around and was about to run, but suddenly a woman's sharp voice sounded behind me: What are you running for?Come help soon.

I turned around subconsciously, and saw a woman wearing a red turtleneck and tight bell-bottoms standing next to the coffin in the middle!
I was startled, and subconsciously asked when did that woman come?
The woman didn't answer my question, but asked me to hurry up and help her in a very anxious and orderly tone.

At this moment, she was facing away from me, pressing her hands firmly on the lid of the paper coffin in the middle, as if she was trying her best to prevent the things in the coffin from jumping out.

My mind was blank at the time, and I didn't have time to think about what was going on, so I rushed over there as soon as my mind became hot.

When I was about one meter away from the woman, I didn't know if I had an auditory hallucination, but I heard two clicks on the woman's neck suddenly.

I subconsciously stopped my steps, and then I saw a very terrifying scene. The woman's shoulders did not move at all, but her head turned 180 degrees to look at me. There was no facial features in that picture, only one The face with the blood-red mouth suddenly made my hair stand on end in fright.

At the same time, the lids of the seven paper coffins behind her suddenly flew towards the sky, and seven corpses that I had known before suddenly sat up from inside the coffins.

I screamed, and my drowsy mind suddenly became very sober. I took several breaths in a row, only to realize that it was just a dream.

However, just as I wiped off the sweat from my forehead, the scene that caught my eyes made my whole heart skip a beat. .
Only at this time did I realize that I was actually lying in an unpainted pine coffin, and, around the coffin, the seven paper coffins were arranged in a circle to surround me in the center, all of which were aligned with the heads of the coffins. my side.

I hurriedly jumped out of the coffin, I clearly remembered that I was sitting on the Eight Immortals table just now, when did I sleep in the coffin?Also, who arranged the seven paper coffins like this?
My mind was in a daze, and I was about to put these coffins back in place, but I heard a sudden noise from the street outside, as if something had happened.

Out of curiosity, I immediately opened the rolling leaf door of the coffin shop, and saw many neighbors running towards the back of the street. I hurriedly grabbed a neighbor and asked them what they were doing in such a panic in the middle of the night.

While running, the neighbor said something serious happened to the old Wang's house in the paper-making shop over there.

My heart skipped a beat, and I hurriedly asked what happened to the neighbor Wang's family.

The neighbor replied that he didn't know the details, anyway, he heard that just an hour ago, the seven members of Lao Wang's family were all hanged on the beams of the house.
