There was no altar table, no offerings, not even a decent incense burner.
He kowtowed three times.
He stood up and looked at the incense stick stuck on the ground for two minutes. He said with complicated eyes: "Master... It has been more than forty years in a flash. I have done everything I promised you at the beginning. I have never done anything in my life."
It doesn't matter if your name is weakened at my age, I ask you to protect your disciples and grandchildren."
"Yunfeng, you should also say a few words to your master."
"Boss, what did Master look like? How old was he when he died? Have you left a photo or portrait?"
"I don't have a photo. If you want to say anything, he can hear it. Your master looks ordinary, but he is as talented as you."
"During the Republic of China, the southern faction was stronger than the northern faction. The Changsha group alone overwhelmed the northern faction. Now, almost a hundred years later, the situation has changed. Your master is indispensable for this. His life is not only fruitful.
Apart from me as a disciple, the other disciples are all people who can stand in their way."
"Then are all my uncles and uncles still there?"
"A few are still there. I didn't take you to see one last time."
I nodded, knelt down in front of the incense, kowtowed three times respectfully, and said, "Master, please bless Xiaoxuan. If she can survive this time, I will offer incense to you every new year and festival in the future."
After doing this, I went out with my head.
The moment I locked the door, I took another look at the three sticks of incense stuck in the middle of the yard.
I found that the incense on the right burned faster than the ones in the middle and left, and the ashes were bent inward and drooped very long.
Looking up at the midday sky, I locked the door hard.
....
My head and I brought a shovel and bought a large bag of yellow hole paper money and a large bag of round hole paper money. We also bought dried fruit candles and other things. I originally wanted to buy a mat, but because it was winter, I didn’t buy any, so I bought a cotton mat.
After opening the door curtain, we took advantage of the fact that there were not many people on the pier at noon and got on the boat.
The destination is that small island.
This is risky, because this kind of small boat can easily be regarded as an illegal fishing boat, but there is no way, we must take risks now, we can't wait until night, and Xiaoxuan can't wait until night.
Telling the truth is related to Xiaoxuan's life, so she must give it a try now.
Fortunately, there was no danger, and at about three o'clock, we successfully docked and landed on the island.
As soon as he got down into the cave, he accidentally fell on his head, and I helped him up quickly.
In the secret room.
The fire was lit, and he squatted with his head under the coffin and burned the paper money.
He burned his head and said: "We make a living by doing this, and we make money from dead people. I am the backbone of the team. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can point it at me. This is called injustice and debts."
"You were one of the leaders of Manichaeism back then, and you were also a heroic figure at the same time as Fang La. Who would have thought that you would be buried in this unknown place? Times have changed, it has been hundreds of years, and Qingxi back then is now a water town.
,Unfortunately, your subsequent plan did not succeed."
While I was burning my head with paper money, I felt a strong curiosity in my heart.
"Head, can I go up and take a look?"
"Now that things have happened, you can watch it if you want, and make some mental preparations."
I nodded and climbed up the wall.
Take a photo with a flashlight.
Even though I was mentally prepared after listening to what the leader said, my pupils still contracted violently.
No wonder Brother Yu didn't dare to look at it after taking one look at it.
It's like a dead person wrapped in cement. He has been dead for a long time. Now the cement has cracked and fallen off, and the smell has spread, exposing part of it.
The gender of the ancient corpse in the coffin cannot be distinguished by just looking at the facial features. There are no eyeballs. The skin around the eye sockets collapsed into two black holes due to dehydration. There are still a few teeth left, some of which are calcified. The jaw is dislocated and the mouth is open.
It's very large and tilted to the left.
The most frightening thing is that the hair and nails are very long and seem to be growing, so Brother Yu said at the time that he looked like a bacon wearing a wig.
Hair and nails continue to grow after death. This happens in two ways. The first is that the skin loses moisture and shrinks inward, and the nails and hair that were originally located inside the body are exposed.
The other is what the old people in the industry call the "Yinzi phenomenon", in which the hair and nails will slowly grow longer due to Yinzi.
Taking a deep breath, I stared at the ancient corpse and said: "Taoist Priest, we are here to burn money for you, and we will find a good place to bury you later. It must be very uncomfortable for someone whose head cannot see the sky and whose feet cannot touch the ground. It is now AD
In 2007, your father-in-law is gone, the Song Dynasty is gone, everything is gone, don’t be obsessed with me anymore, please let Xiaoxuan go and don’t harm her."
After saying that, I closed my eyes and bowed to the ancient corpse.
The moment I opened my eyes, I suddenly discovered that the ancient corpse's head was slightly tilted to the left.
As the saying goes, if you don't do something bad, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. After all, if you open a coffin and take someone's belongings, even if I am in this business, I will still be afraid. This is an instinct that human beings cannot eliminate.
I hurriedly prayed.
The ancient corpse weighed about forty kilograms. After taking it down, my head and I rolled it up with a cotton curtain, and then we lifted it up.
It was in the afternoon, and the weather was good when we first landed on the island. The weather changed within a few minutes after I and I carried the ancient corpse out of the cave.
The sun's rays were blocked by clouds, making it gloomy.
"Botou, I think the bamboo forest has good feng shui. It has a deep environment, can protect you from wind and rain, and is shaded and facing the sun."
He shook his head and said: "The feng shui of the bamboo forest is fine, but it is not suitable for burying people. In the past, people said that if bamboo grows behind the grave, the grave must be moved. I think it is more suitable to bury it in that place."
Point your head to a place.
I looked at it and agreed.
After they were carried over, I was responsible for digging the hole, lighting incense on my head, and placing a plate of dried fruit.
After burying the ancient corpse rolled up with a door curtain, he found a wooden stick for his head and inserted it in front of the grave.
I asked if I wanted to engrave a name?
Shake your head and say no.
After doing all this, I squatted in front of the grave and said: "Look, this is so good. Although there is no coffin, the scenery here is beautiful and there are mountains and rivers. At least after you are buried, you can sleep well in the future. This is the only thing we can do."
Duo, please let us go, ah? Stop pestering us."
"Okay Yunfeng, let's go."
Just when we had not gone far, we heard a crow calling "wow wah wah".
I looked back.
For some reason, more than a dozen crows landed on the grave, and two of them were still standing with their heads on the penny sticks, flapping their wings vigorously.
I quickly asked the chief to see this anomaly.
He frowned and said, "It doesn't mean anything. Crows eat carrion. They should smell it."
After doing all this, we left the island. On the way back, I suddenly remembered something from my childhood.
When I was young, I had a classmate. We went to the temple to play together. My classmate broke off a clay stick from the hand of the statue. We both thought it was a golden hoop. I asked him for it, but he was reluctant to give it to me.
My classmate came home carrying a golden cudgel and was beaten.
The next day, my classmate had a high fever and couldn't wake up. There was an infectious disease at that time, and his cheeks would swell greatly. The classmate's parents thought he had this disease, so they hurriedly gave him injections, infusions, and medicine.
After two days, there was still no improvement. The couple realized something was wrong, so they made a new golden hoop and put it back on the statue in the temple.
As a result, my classmate got better that night and her fever went away.
I swear to God this is a real thing, whether it's a miracle or a coincidence, I now hope that this kind of thing can happen to Xiaoxuan.
After returning home, my boss and I rushed to the hospital without stopping.
Dou Sprout was leaning on a chair in the corridor in a daze. Seeing that we were back, Dou Sprout looked sad and shook his head.
"What's wrong with Xiaoxuan! What's wrong with Xiaoxuan!"
I grabbed the bean sprouts and asked sharply.
"Hey, Fengzi, don't be so loud. Xiaoxuan is not dead yet."
"Then why the hell are you shaking your head!"
Dou Sprout looked haggard and said aggrievedly: "The situation is not good. The doctor came to see me twice and he shook his head every time. You will know after you go in and take a look."
I immediately opened the door.
"Yunfeng, you are back."
Brother Yu stayed in the ward all night, looking equally haggard.
Brother Yu and I looked at the hospital bed at the same time.
Xiaoxuan was lying on the bed very quietly, covered with a white quilt, her face was pale, no blood could be seen, her mouth was slightly open, and her lower lip was dark and purple.
At this time, Brother Yu looked at the time, picked up the kettle, and fed Xiaoxuan water with careful movements.
Xiaoxuan's mouth was open because he had Angong Pill under his tongue and needed a small amount of water to dissolve it little by little. The price of this pill would not be less than 50,000 yuan, and it was not easy to get it even if you had money.
"Brother Yu, go to eat something a little, I look at it."
"I can't eat it." Said the eyes of Yu Brother's eyes.
I wiped my eyes and said, "It's okay, I and I should do everything, Xiao Xuan can wake up at night."
After listening, the fish slowly lowered his head and a kind of.
