The boss said that basically no corpse can come out on its own after entering the funeral parlor.
Of course, except those with danger level S.
The corpse in the memorial is not in high danger. It is sealed inside the coffin, and it is impossible to come out unharmed.
I became curious immediately and asked: "Boss, what is going on with coffin No. 13? Can you tell me about it?"
Zhang Sanfen said softly: "Let's go and have a look at the underground morgue!"
I nodded repeatedly and took out my handbag from the car.
After holding the long spike in my hand, I felt a little safer.
Although we stayed in western Sichuan and northern Hubei for many days, Nanshan Funeral Home was still the same as usual, without any difference.
The complicated incantation on the door remained the same as before, and the cool breeze in the corridor was eerie and biting.
But before we pushed the door open and went in, we heard a banging sound inside, like a coffin shaking.
But after entering, it suddenly became quiet again.
This is quite normal. Basically, the corpses parked here are not normal.
Who would put a normal corpse here?
Zhang Sanfen put his handbag on the ground and glanced around. The coffins around him immediately became quiet.
He didn't say anything, walked straight to the position of coffin No. 13, and said, "This is it."
"When I came in, the crystal coffin was opened."
There are faint traces of runes on the surface of the crystal coffin, but now it has been opened and thrown aside.
The inside of the coffin was clean, not even a trace of dirt. I took a closer look and found that there was no corpse smell inside.
Zhang Sanfen said: "When the commemorative corpse was delivered, I felt it was a bit strange. That's why we agreed to keep the corpse here for three years."
"Generally speaking, the corpses parked here are no more than three months old."
"You should know this."
I nodded to express my understanding. The night shift management manual said that there were generally few corpses parked here for more than three months.
So I asked: "Is there something wrong with the memorial body?"
Zhang Sanfen said softly: "I don't understand what's wrong."
If you can't figure out what's wrong, it means there must be something wrong.
In fact, when Memorial was alive, he had a very special status. It was said that he was an expert specializing in the study of immortality.
Of course, this kind of expert is not an expert in the ordinary sense who receives a national salary and only publishes a few papers.
In a more sense, the research direction of commemoration is biased towards the folk.
Therefore, Memorial has a great reputation among the people. At least some people in the industry know what Memorial has done.
This was the first time I heard that Memorial was an expert in this field, and I was a little confused at the time.
So I asked Zhang Sanfen, is there really such a thing as immortality in the world?
Zhang Sanfen smiled and said: "It is impossible to live forever. All life will come to an end. This is an eternal truth."
"Even our universe, the sun, and the earth will all have their own lives."
"The key issue is that we can't avoid death, but we can slow it down."
I understood immediately.
People usually go to bed early, get up early, exercise more, and eat healthy food. This is actually a way to fight against aging and death.
Doctors helping patients is also a way to fight against death.
It's just that commemorating this kind of person is done more absolutely.
They don't care about these trivial things, which are within the human life span.
Rather, it specializes in researching breakthroughs.
For example, a person can have a life span of 200 years or even 500 years.
For another example, some extreme people will study how to make human beings exist forever.
Several of these methods do sound a bit anti-human.
Such as head transplant surgery.
The general meaning is that through surgery, a dying human head is replaced with a fresh and young body, which can greatly resist aging and fate.
Another option is to upload human consciousness to the Internet to form particle beams similar to energy waves.
After you have a suitable body, you can download your consciousness from the Internet and be reborn.
There are people doing research on methods like this all the time.
However, due to technical aspects, it is difficult to achieve substantial breakthroughs.
But the theoretical feasibility still attracts many wealthy people to invest.
After all, immortality is what everyone hopes to exist, and no one can resist such a temptation.
But commemoration is different.
Memorial Walk is the study of the soul.
Even Zhang Sanfen doesn't know the specifics of this research.
But the general meaning is that once the research is successful, the human soul can be separated from the body.
If there is a suitable, fresh body, the person's soul can escape into it again, expel the original soul, and continue living with the help of the other person's body.
When I heard this, I was stunned and said, "Possessed by a ghost?"
Isn't this just demonic possession?
If your body is broken, your soul can leave your body and float between heaven and earth.
When a suitable body is found, he will pounce on it to expel the original soul, and then forcefully occupy it.
Is this kind of research really good?
Just imagine, you were living a good life here, with a harmonious family and a successful career.
Just because your body is in tune with someone's soul, the other person will directly expel your soul and occupy your body.
When the time comes, he becomes a lonely ghost and lives a miserable life.
Isn’t this research anti-human?
Zhang Sanfen saw my strange expression and said calmly: "You also know that this is unreasonable, right?"
"But Memorial doesn't care, and neither do the investors behind it. They just want immortality."
I said if I had some enlightenment, I said: "The soul of commemoration...has left the body?"
Zhang Sanfen smiled and said: "Yes."
"Three years ago, Memorial's research made a breakthrough. She obtained the secret method of the Yin people in southern Jiangxi. She didn't know what she had tinkered with, so she decided to use herself as an experiment."
I understood instantly and said, "So her three souls and seven souls left her body? But I don't know where they went?"
Zhang Sanfen nodded: "That's right."
"Strictly speaking, commemoration does not mean that three souls and seven souls leave the body, but one soul and one soul are left in the body. So the current commemoration is not a corpse in the true sense."
"As long as she can find the two souls and six souls that commemorate the loss, she may still wake up."
"But here's the problem. I don't know where the commemorative three souls and seven souls have gone. No one can find it. Even her research records can't find any clues."
"This incident had a big impact in the circle three years ago, and I have heard about it."
"Later, Chen Xiansheng had no choice but to send the memorial body to the funeral parlor and asked us to help him."
I know that commemorating the current body is just a shell.
Those lonely ghosts wandering outside have always wanted to occupy the body of Memorial and then live a new life.
Ever since the commemorative Three Souls and Seven Souls were lost, dead ghosts would come to the door almost every once in a while.
Chen Xiansheng was so annoyed that he found Nanshan Funeral Home in desperation to preserve the body as a memorial.
Because it commemorates the existence of a soul inside the body, it will not decay.
And because there are things in Nanshan Funeral Home that can suppress the dead souls and zombies, those lonely ghosts don’t dare to approach.
With his hands free, Chen Xiansheng began to search for his girlfriend's lost soul.
Before leaving, he made an appointment with Zhang Sanfen to pick up the body again in three years.
In order to pay for the storage fees for the past three years, Chen Xiansheng sold his company and rented out the commemorative research institute.
After paying the money, he turned around and embarked on the road to find and commemorate the lost soul.
Now that the three-year period has expired, Chen Xiansheng came back to commemorate the corpse.
But who would have thought that at this juncture, the commemorative body would disappear!
