Chapter 21 The Double Coffin

Now I am a little corpse-driver who officially debuted. With the first successful experience, I feel more confident when I place an order for the second time.

Before I set off, I specially found an old green military canvas bag from my home, and on my back, it contained some must-have props for corpse-drivers, such as white candles, yellow paper, etc. Then I went to the barber shop at the entrance of the village and cut a broken hair. In that era, with a broken hair, it was still a very fashionable hairstyle.

At that time, there were no scissors for broken hair. They were blades installed in the comb. The barber grabbed my hair like a knife cutting noodles, and cut off a large piece, but it still looked quite energetic and I was very satisfied.

He Leizi rushed back to Niujia Village overnight. It was already midnight when he entered the village. Leizi took me straight to Tong’s house.

The Tong family is a small brick-walled building with a brick-walled structure. It has the second floor and the bottom, the living room and kitchen below, the bedroom above, and there are tiles outside the wall, which is considered to be the relatively high-end yard in the village.

Tong Tong's father works in coastal areas all year round and sends all the money he earns home. Seeing that the family's life is getting better, he unexpectedly ends up with a tragic ending of his family's destruction. It is really sad.

When I walked into the yard, the whole Tong family seemed particularly deserted, with no relatives or friends, no neighbors and neighbors. Everyone in the village knew about Tong Tong's affairs. No one was willing to come to the Tong family to touch this bad head. They all hid far away, for fear of having any connection with the Tong family. Besides, the Tong family is now a haunted house with five dead dead, and no one is willing to come in.

The two wreaths placed at the entrance of the yard were given by the village committee. The night wind blew, making it look even more desolate and sad.

There were lights in the yard, and there were several coffin-carrying maker sitting. There were seven people including Lao Huang. They were waiting here early under the leadership of Lao Huang. Including Lao Huang, three were familiar faces, and four were raw faces, which I don’t know.

The seven coffincarvers all sat in the yard, acting as spirit guards, with a brazier in the middle and burning paper in them.

Not far away was a large coffin. This coffin was much larger and taller than an ordinary coffin. It was dark and had no luster on the surface.

I was a little confused and asked Leizi why so many people came this time, and with Leizi's words, there were eight coffin carryrs in total.

Lei Zi pointed at the coffin: "Did you see that coffin?"

"I saw it, I was about to ask you, why is that coffin so big?" I said.

Lei Zi took me over and pushed open the lid of the coffin: "Because this is a double-layer coffin!"

"Double-layer?" This is the first time I have seen a double-layer coffin, one layer on top and one layer on bottom, like the top and bottom bunks, it is very exquisitely made and can hold two corpses at one time.

Leizi said that weren’t Tong Tong and his father two corpses? If they had two coffins separately, the cost would be a bit expensive, so they would just be buried together. Apart from the price, they were two fathers and sons, and they still hoped that they would be together in the underworld, so they asked the coffin shop to make such a double-layer coffin.

"By the way, this is a coffin, not a coffin!" Lei Zi is a professional coffin carryr. He knows more about coffin than I do, and it is the only capital he can show off to me. He told me that this coffin is a coffin with a condom, which is equivalent to a large coffin outside, and a small coffin inside. The large coffin outside is equivalent to a condom, scientifically known as "coffin". Such coffins are very common in the tombs of some wealthy families in ancient times.

But this coffin was not to highlight the wealthy family of the Tong family. It was because the father and son of the Tong family died suddenly. In order to restrain their resentment, they specially built such a coffin, injecting copper juice into the gap in the middle, one was to overcome evil and the other was to prevent their corpses from crawling out.

In this way, the coffin injected with copper juice naturally became very heavy. In addition, it was a double-layer coffin, so the four coffin carryrs must not be able to carry them, so this time, eight coffin carryrs specially invited to carry the double-layer coffin together.

"Where is the corpse? Where is the corpse?" I asked at the empty coffin.

Lei Zi stretched out his finger and pointed to the inner room, lowered his voice and said, "The body is still there. The father and son died so terrible. Who dares to touch their bodies? That's why you need a professional corpse driver like you!"

I nodded, walked to Lao Huang and the others first, asked a few coffin-carrying masters, and introduced each other to each other.

In fact, most coffin holders are from poor families, with thick trousers, torn rubber shoes, and yellow mud on the edges of their legs, which all show the bitterness of life. Some people's fingers are covered with calluses, while others have deformed shoulder bones, which look like one side of their shoulders is tilted, making it difficult for everyone to live.

"Have you seen the zodiac sign?" I asked Lao Huang.

Lao Huang said: "I have seen it. Those born in the Year of the Tiger and Dragon cannot come. I have chosen them all, so don't worry!"

Every time before carrying a coffin, you have to look at the coffin holder's zodiac sign. This is the rule. Because from the perspective of numerology, some zodiac signs are incompatible with the birth date of the deceased, and this situation is prone to conflict and may cause unexpected situations. Therefore, coffin holder can not carry every coffin.

I was relieved to Lao Huang to do his business. I nodded and asked them to wait for me at the door, and went into the house alone to see the death scene.

As I walked into the inner room, an invisible yin energy rushed towards me. I shivered slightly, it was so cold!

When I stepped into the scene of death, I was still a little nervous, and white sweat appeared on my forehead.

I took three deep breaths to calm my fear.

The room was silent, with a yin energy, and even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard.

After walking in a few steps, it was the living room lobby. Tong Tong's father committed suicide by hanging himself on the beam of the living room.

As soon as I looked up, I saw the body of Tong's father, hanging in the center of the living room, without moving. The body was already stiff, his head was wrapped in a white silk, his face was black and purple, because it was hanged, his tongue and eyes were severely bulging, his face was covered with corpse spots, and his appearance was quite ferocious and terrifying.

This man was very young, about in his early thirties, wearing a white shirt with blood stains. The clothes turned into bloody clothes, and the blood stains had solidified and turned into large black marks. But the blood stains did not come from Tong's father, but Tong Tong, a five-year-old. Seeing this bloody clothes, I couldn't imagine how miserable Tong Tong's death was.

I sighed silently in my heart, and the scene in front of me made me feel uncomfortable.

In fact, when I was truly at the scene of death, my heart was much calmer and I didn’t feel as scared as before.

I asked Lao Huang who was standing at the door: "What is this person's birth date and horoscope?"
