Chapter 20 The Coffin Gets Lighter

Chapter 20 The coffin becomes lighter (Part 2)

The owner knew early on that the coffin would be transported across the stream, so he had bundled some bamboo rafts there in advance. In addition, the water surface of the stream was not very fast, so the bamboo rafts could be used to cross to the other side.

We first asked one person to swim over with one end of the rope and tie the other end to the bamboo raft. Then we placed two wooden benches on the bamboo raft, and then placed the coffin on the wooden benches.

Then, we arranged for some people to pull it to the opposite side. It took about thirty minutes, and we finally pulled the coffin to the opposite side. I was about to burn some yellow paper and remove the coffin from the bamboo raft when someone suddenly shouted.

: "Blood! So much blood!"

After hearing this, I looked towards the coffin and saw a small hole in the bottom of the coffin. A lot of blood seeped out from inside, making a beeping sound. Soon, the bamboo raft was already a bright red, and the smell of blood was filled with it.

Throughout the sky, many people had begun to vomit.

Seeing that the bamboo raft was covered with blood, all the relatives of the host family panicked. Without thinking, they knelt down and kept kowtowing, wailing again and again, not even daring to raise their heads.

"Jiuyaozi, what do you do?" Lao Wang walked up to me and asked.

I frowned, pointed at the coffin and said, "Let's try to plug the small hole with yellow paper first!"

"Okay!" Lao Wang glanced at me and found a handful of yellow paper to plug it there. As soon as he plugged it in, it was washed away by a steady stream of blood. More and more blood flowed out of the coffin, and some blood had already seeped out.

Go to the stream and dye the water surface reddish.

Looking at this situation, it was impossible to block the coffin. The only way left was to open the coffin. I asked Lao Wang to find a long pry, and moved the coffin to the ground regardless of the fact that the coffin would not fall to the ground.

First I raised the coffin lid a little bit, and I didn’t know what was going on. As soon as I exerted force with my hand, the coffin fell apart with a crash.

After the burial, I asked the host's family to go back first and then go to his house tomorrow to settle the funeral expenses. After they left, I felt strangely uncomfortable. At first, I thought it was blood stains on my body, so I jumped into the stream with Lao Wang.

I took a bath, but unexpectedly, after the bath, blisters the size of rice grains appeared all over my body. They were neither painful nor itchy, but Lao Wang was fine at all.

Immediately, I vomited. Isn't this fish a small scavenger? How could it appear in the coffin? What makes me even more confused is how these scavengers survive in the coffin.

We glanced at each other and found that each other was a bloody man. Lao Wang was still better, but my whole body was stained red with blood. I looked around and saw that all the relatives of the master's family ran away at some time, leaving only the venue.

I, Lao Wang, the six Eight Immortals and the three brothers of the master’s family kneeling not far away.

I thought about it and told the owner that in this case, the only way is to put the bones in sacks first and then bury them. If you still insist on using coffins, you need to wait until three years later to dig them out and then put them in coffins. However, this will

It's not worth ruining your feng shui.

At first, the host told me to put the bones in a coffin before burying them. I said that changing the coffin before the burial would bring bad luck and possibly death. When the host heard this, they asked me what I could do.

At this time, the three brothers of the master's family walked over tremblingly. Regardless of the blood on the ground, they knelt down and kowtowed desperately. Then they asked us what was going on. I said, "Have you offended someone?"

Yes, someone put scavengers in the coffin to eat your father's body."

I shook my head, not knowing how to answer their questions, so I let them investigate on their own. After all, I was only responsible for the funeral, and I was not interested in knowing the cause of death.

A pungent smell of blood rushed towards me, causing me to cough violently several times, and then a large wave of blood poured down from the coffin, turning everything below my knees red.

Lao Wang glanced at the blisters on my body and said, "Jiuyazi, you don't have syphilis, do you?"

The three brothers of the master's family whispered to each other for a while and said, "We three brothers are just ordinary people. We usually don't offend anyone. Who would do such a thing as to annihilate our descendants?"

The three brothers of the host family discussed it for a while and agreed to my approach. Then, we Eight Immortals found sacks, picked up the bones and put them in, buried them in the soil, scattered rice, burned incense, hammered soul-calming nails, and then recited a bunch of incantations to seal the soil.

, and then the bones of the deceased were buried underground. However, the story did not end there, but had just begun.

I wiped off the blood stains on my face and felt a little angry, "Mader, where did the blood come from in this coffin!"

"Who is so cruel that he puts the scavenger into the coffin and eats the corpse of the deceased? What a hatred and resentment!" Lao Wang sighed and said next to him.

Lao Wang didn't speak, his legs kept trembling, and he sneered at me. I followed his movements and looked towards the coffin, and saw that there was no one in the coffin, only piles of bones, and several people jumping next to it.

Ten thumb-sized fish were gnawing at the intestines of the deceased.

The coffin was falling apart, but the bones of the deceased were still there, so the burial had to go on, so we asked the owner what their plans were.

Suddenly, my palm touched a round object. I picked it up and looked at it. This sight almost scared me to death. The round object was nothing else. It turned out to be a living eyeball.

There are also meridians connected to it, and the two colors of black and red cross each other, constantly stimulating my visual nerves.

I looked at the fallen coffin boards again and found that they were all covered with gnawing marks. The thickness of the coffin was much thinner. No wonder the coffin became lighter and lighter. It was all the work of these scavengers.

Lao Wang helped me up, glanced at the eyeball in my hand, and without saying a word, took off my clothes, tied them to my wrists, and pulled hard to drive the eyeball away from my hand.

.

I shook it away hard, and the eyeball seemed to be stuck to my palm. I couldn't shake it off at all. After shaking it several times, the eyeball quietly stuck to my hand. I was immediately frightened. Why did these eyes look so familiar?

It feels like the sticky stuff on it is the glue I sprinkled on it.

"Mom! There's so much blood!" Lao Wang screamed next to him, pulling me and running. Unexpectedly, he slipped and we both fell into a pile of blood. I put one hand on the ground and prepared to get up.

As soon as I heard this, I became angry and said, "You old bastard, I didn't even touch the girl's hand, where did syphilis come from!"

He looked at me all over and said, "That's not right. You have the best looks in our village. Why don't you even have a woman? Besides, didn't you have a girlfriend in school?"

, how come you didn’t even touch it?”

I glared at him and said: "She and I treat each other with respect, unlike you, an old pervert who is almost fifty and still goes to the hair salon in town every now and then!"

I still remember the expression Lao Wang looked at me at that time. Although he didn't say anything, in his deep eyes, I saw two words, coward. Looking back now, it is indeed true. In this life of a man,

, I am afraid of getting into the wrong profession. Once I get into the wrong profession, love will be an elusive dream, let alone further actions, just like the profession of a coffin bearer.
