Chapter 28 Meeting the Scavenger Again

Two fists are no match for four, and a hero cannot stand up to a pack of wolves. I put my head in my hands and curled up, letting their fists and feet hit me. It wasn't that I didn't want to resist, but resisting would only provoke more fists.

"Ma De, you are young and don't learn well. You come to compete with us for business. If this happens again next time, I will beat you until you can't take care of yourself!" The Taoist priest kicked me in the chest with a particularly contemptuous tone, "Get out of here."

!Stop gesticulating here. I know better than you, a coffin bearer, about how to handle funerals."

I got up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth, and saw that many evil blisters on my body had been broken by them. The smell of putridity was extremely strong. Coupled with the smell emanating from Li Hazi's body, there were two rotten smells.

The odors mixed together, filling the entire hall with this rancid smell. Many people had already started to vomit and ran outside the hall.

At this moment, something strange happened. The leading Taoist priest had just stepped out of the hall threshold with one foot, but could not lift the other foot no matter how hard he lifted it. The same happened to the remaining Taoist priests, as if they had been tortured.

It's like a fixing spell, just stay there.

Immediately afterwards, the legs of the Taoist priests went weak, and they all knelt down, staring blankly at the sky. I walked over and pulled them, but they couldn't pull them at all. When I called, they didn't answer, they just looked at the sky.

When I saw this, I immediately turned around and knelt down in front of the coffin, lit three pillars of incense and some yellow paper, kowtowed three times respectfully, and said, "I don't mean to offend you. I just want to find out some reasons. I hope you won't take offense."

!”

Strange to say, the hall was originally filled with a strong putrid smell. As soon as he finished speaking, the putrid smell was obviously much thinner. What was even more strange was that the noise inside the coffin actually became louder.

I stood up, bowed to the coffin three more times, picked up the bamboo stick and went to the end of the coffin, used the bamboo stick to cover the deceased's body, and lifted it out of the coffin. I saw that the shroud on the deceased's body was gone.

The skin all over the body has long been rotten, and the limbs are covered with white downy particles, which look a bit like eggs. The deceased's belly seems to have been cut open with some sharp weapon, and bloody intestines have been pulled out.

The sound of "croaking, croaking" became more and more intense. I originally wanted to move the deceased away with my hands, but it was impossible to do so in this situation, so I had to use a bamboo stick to pry the deceased's body upwards.

The relationship was over, and I had no choice but to let them leave and pretend that I had been beaten by a ghost today. However, Fatty Guo looked at me with a bruised nose and swollen face, and wanted to beat him back, but I pulled him back.

After being stunned for a long time, I shouted the loudest in my history, "Here comes someone! Li Hazi's body has been eaten!"

Those scavengers were jumping around in the coffin, but they couldn't jump out. However, something that scared me even more happened. The deceased was eaten clean by the scavengers at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only piles of bones.

.

I just pried open a small gap, and thumb-sized scavengers jumped out from under the dead body. There were still little blood stains on the corners of the mouths of those scavengers. It was obvious that they had just been devouring the corpse.

That night, I did not go back to Aozi Village, but took Fatty Guo to rest for the night at Li Jianmin's house. Early the next morning, Li Jianmin opened the door and laughed loudly and said: "Chen Baxian, I dreamed about me again last night."

Dad."

Then, I called Lang Gao and asked him to bring an urn to Licun early tomorrow morning to hold his uncle's ashes. He asked me why, and I told him the general story.

"Burn! These fish can eat people!" I took a few deep breaths and said slowly: "Get some dry firewood and burn it together with the coffin in the main room. I believe Li Hazi's spirit in heaven also wants us to do this.

.”

When many people came in outside, the scavengers had already begun to eat the coffin. They asked me what happened. I shook my hands, pointed to the coffin and said, "The body has been eaten!"

"Where did the scavengers come from?" I sighed secretly, raised the bamboo stick in my hand and struck it. As the stick went down, more scavengers jumped out of the coffin. A rough estimate, there must be hundreds of them.

.

When people encounter extremely scary things, only two things can bring a sense of security. One is light, and the other is hysterical screaming. Otherwise, it is easy to go crazy. After shouting this voice, I could barely calm down.

, but the trembling legs betrayed the fear in my heart.

They glanced at the coffin and vomited. Li Hazi's wife cried and asked me, "What should I do now?"

Soon, only half of the blood was left in the coffin. The scavengers were swimming around in the coffin, which made me feel uncomfortable. However, this scene made me feel so frightened and frightened that I felt like my brain was in a daze.

He asked me where the scavengers in the coffin came from, and how they could survive without water. I thought about it for a long time and said, "This kind of scavengers have extremely strong vitality and fecundity. As long as there is a little corpse water, they can survive.

Then they lay eggs, generation after generation, and many offspring can be produced in a few days. As for how the scavenger got into the coffin, I haven't figured it out yet!"

The fire burned for a full eight hours. After the fire was extinguished, the Taoist priests kneeling at the door came to their senses. Looking at the scene in front of them, they said nothing. They just looked at me resentfully and said:

"If the mountains remain green and the waters will flow, the funeral will be higher and lower in the future."

After hearing what I said, they found several bundles of dry firewood, surrounded the coffin, and lit it. Because there was too much blood in the coffin, these dry firewood were not enough. Later, Li Hazi's wife used all the dry firewood available in the village.

I borrowed it and burned the coffin cleanly.

I jumped up from the bed, pinched Fatty Guo to get him up, and asked Li Jianmin, "What were you dreaming about?"

After hearing this, he was silent for a long time, and finally said, "I will bring someone to investigate tomorrow!"

"My dad asked me to thank you for him. He lived a good life in the underworld. He is no longer surrounded by those little fishes. He just feels a little tight in his chest and there is something missing. I hope you can help solve it so that he can be reincarnated." Li Jianmin

Said excitedly.

After hearing this, I rubbed my temples and sorted things out. After burning those scavengers, Li Jianmin dreamed that his father was living a good life in the underworld. In other words, his father's injustice was most likely caused by those scavengers.

Scavenger.

It's right when you think about it. Who doesn't hate the things that eat their own corpses? But I let those things go that time. It's strange that the dead don't hate me. Now burning some scavengers proves that I didn't let those things go intentionally.

The deceased's hatred for me disappeared. This does not mean that I avenged him, but it is a kind of intention.

As for those fake immortals, maybe it was the noisy scene in the main room that made the deceased hate him. After all, their zodiac signs conflict with the deceased, and they are more likely to annoy the deceased. Therefore, the evil blisters on their bodies are more serious than mine, so that Li

Ha Zi died.

And the deceased said that he could not be reincarnated because he felt uncomfortable in his heart. Perhaps he was referring to the murderer who released the scavenger!

But who was the scavenger who put it in the coffin? Could it be that Li Jianmin’s father and Li Hazi had a common enemy?
