Take your sister to catch a ghost

Chapter 3 Wang Xiaoxi (1)

When the cannon-firing man passed by me after firing the cannon, I looked at the tools in his hand.

It is an iron cylinder with a thick wrist, and the interior is divided into three even parts. There are three small holes at the root of the iron cylinder, which are used to put the lead wires.

A very simple construction!
"You young people, don't look at it when the cannon is fired. If there is a smoke ring when it is released, and the smoke ring floats on you, you will be killed!"

I was stunned for a while and asked, "Why can't only young people watch it?"

"Old people are going to die, it doesn't matter if they are caught in a quilt!"

It turned out to be the reason, because I thought it was too complicated.

Dinner is served at eleven o'clock at noon.

When I sat at the dining table, I thought that this meal is the only one that is meaningful after traveling so far, at least it can fill my stomach.

Lunch was rich, and after lunch, we began to pay homage to the dead.

I stood in front of the coffin and reminisced for a while before I came out. This is all useless work, everyone is already dead, no matter how luxurious it is, it is useless.

After I come out, I will pay the share money. There is another saying here called "hanging gift".

The form is very simple, that is, two people do it, one person writes the name and amount on the gift book, and the other collects the money.

I went up with 200 yuan and said, "Zhang Yuan."

Then he took the money, and another person wrote 'Zhang Yuan—two hundred yuan' on the gift book, and after finishing writing, handed me a pack of cigarettes!

I don't smoke, but they say you can't refuse cigarettes at funerals or weddings, so I put this pack of cigarettes in my pocket.

In the afternoon, I chatted with a group of people I didn't know as landlords for a while, and then chatted about QQ.

I opened the QQ group and saw that they didn't speak, so I took a photo of the coffin with my mobile phone and sent it to the group with the words: "For the dead!"

After a while, people responded one after another.

"Does the person who did it have any grudge against him? Take a picture of the surroundings of the house!"

I took a photo of the environment around the house with doubts, and then sent it to the group.

After more than a minute, someone in the group said: "This house is not built for the location...I'm afraid it will kill people!"

Seeing what he said so mysteriously, I became interested and asked, "What's wrong with this house?"

"The house is located in a mountain depression, with its back against a cliff and surrounded by mountains on the left and right. If my guess is correct, there must be a ditch in front of his house!"

I stood up and walked a few steps forward, and sure enough there was a ditch.

"How do you know? There really are!"

"The house is in a dark place, and it's a tiger's mouth. He didn't die until now. The ancestral grave must be buried well!"

What does he mean by this is that the fact that the driver has not died until now is due to the blessings of his ancestors?
I didn't understand, so I asked again: "You saw the coffin just now, did you think there was something wrong?"

He replied to me: "The coffin faces south and north, and there is a white paper room on the top. Sitting south and north is the orientation of the emperor's residence... But this way cannot receive sunlight at all, and it is the emperor's residence, but it is suppressed by the white paper house. Be careful... the man called Fa changed the direction of the coffin and took down the room above!"

"What if we don't change direction?" I asked.

"Maybe it will become a ghost!" he replied, and then added: "A ghost is not bad at first, just like a newborn baby, just don't let him come into contact with human breath."

"What will happen if you come into contact with human breath?"

"It will turn bad...become a real ghost!"

Then I asked him what to do, he told me some simple ways and then went offline.

I ran to the coffin and looked at it. I was going to talk to the Taoist priest about it, but after thinking about it, he is an expert here. If he listened to me, he would definitely lose his face!
After six o'clock in the afternoon, I ate dinner and prepared to 'sit the night'.

'Sitting at night' means not sleeping at night and staying with the dead.

I had no place to sleep, so I naturally sat up at night.

There were many people sitting with me at night, and one of them was a cute little girl with a white cloth on her head.

Only close relatives are eligible to wear filial cloth, and the closer the relationship, the longer the filial cloth.

The little girl Xiaobu was almost at her heels, and I guessed she was the driver's daughter.

It's really sad to lose our father at such a young age. When we think about ourselves, we realize how happy we were before.

Those Taoist priests didn't sleep at night, discussing something with those people who were beating gongs and drums.

After eleven o'clock in the evening, they were about to start the transcendence.

A total of four Taoist priests stood in front of the coffin each holding a magic weapon.

The driver's relatives moved two square tables and put a lot of food on the table. In the center of the food was a pig's head, and a stick of incense was inserted between the pig's head's eyebrows.

After everything was done, the gongs and drums on the side started to beat, and the Taoist priests started to circle around the table at the same time.

Go around the table three times clockwise and three times counterclockwise.

After the tables were turned, they took away the 100 yuan that was placed on the table, and then started to go around the coffin.

While their attention was on the Taoist priest, my eyes were on the food and the coffin!
Of course, I didn't want to eat these foods, but felt that the pig's head in the center of the table was a bit strange.

I used to celebrate the New Year in the countryside, and I saw countrymen offering sacrifices to gods, and they also used pig heads, but the incense was not inserted between the eyebrows of the pig's head, but rubbed right in front of the pig's head.

In addition, I feel that the stick of incense is also a bit strange. Now it has been lit for less than 10 minutes, and more than half of the incense has been burned.

These are just my own feelings, and I didn't tell others, because I was afraid it was my illusion.

But suddenly, my eyes were dull, because just now, I seemed to see the white paper room above the coffin move.

Then I took a closer look, and it was still there, with no sign of movement at all.

Snapped……

Before I could look away, the lamp hanging from the tarpaulin suddenly went out.

The surroundings suddenly became dark. Now if there is a beautiful girl, I will go up and forcefully kiss her. Even if I don't run away, she won't know who I am.

After the lights went out, they immediately said that there was a power outage, but I didn't think so, because in a room not far away, the lights were still on.

As soon as it went out, I got up immediately and said: "The power is out, everyone go first!"

I am not a merciful person, but I would also like to see someone haunted by ghosts.

"I'll be calling right away, what are you going to do?"

I have no choice but to be safe, I can only leave first by myself.

I had just walked a few steps when the electricity came on again. I looked back, could it be that I was being overwhelmed?
Going back the same way and sitting on the stool, the Taoist priests continued to circle the coffin again.

However, a second later, I was stunned... Just now there were four Taoist priests, but now there are five... And the last one has no shadow...

As soon as I saw this phenomenon, I stood up immediately, and then pointed to the Taoist priests, motioning them to look behind me.

They understood what I meant, and looked back, but they didn't have the fear I imagined. After just one glance, they turned their heads again.

After they circled around again, all five of them had disappeared, and their walking posture was extremely strange.

Like women, they walk on tiptoes without touching the ground with their heels, which looks a little weird.

"Everyone, go!" I yelled, then picked up the little girl not far from me and ran out.
