Why are there cats meowing in the coffin? The purpose of setting up the coffin is to separate the cat from the corpse, not to keep the cat and the corpse together!
I thought it was the workers who accidentally locked the cat inside when setting up the coffin. I was so frightened that I pushed Yuchen away, turned around and ran into the coffin.
Because time was tight, the coffin was not large. The black coffin was placed in the middle. There were wreaths around the coffin. There was only a passage for people to pass by. In front of the coffin, there were everlasting lanterns, incense burners and braziers.
The place is not big and you can see everything at a glance. There are no cats at all.
I was afraid that I might have missed it, so I searched carefully again, but still couldn't find it.
"I obviously heard the cat meow.
"I said to Yuchen, "Did I hear wrongly?"
Yuchen glanced at me, and then said coldly, "Open the coffin.
"
"Ah?" I was stunned for a moment, "The cat will definitely not be able to get in if the lid of the coffin is kept closed. There is no need to open the coffin..."
Before I could finish speaking, Yuchen picked up an ever-burning lamp and put it into my hand, "Take it, open the coffin, and use candlelight to illuminate the deceased's head."
"
Although it is called an ever-burning lamp, it is not an electric lamp at all, it is just a very thick white candle.
When Yuchen brought it to me, the flame of the candle was blown from side to side by the wind. I was afraid that the candle would go out, so I quickly took it, holding the candle in one hand and shielding the flame from the wind with the other.
When I was doing this, Yuchen had already walked to the black coffin. He glanced at me and although he said nothing, I understood that he was urging me to come over.
I felt like I was riding a tiger and it was hard to get off, so I braved it and walked over.
As soon as they passed, there was a click sound, and Yuchen pushed the coffin lid open, leaving a gap of about twenty centimeters, which just revealed the deceased's head.
I knew I shouldn't look, but I was really curious, so when I was putting the candle in my hand into the coffin, I took a peek inside the coffin.
This sight almost scared me to death.
The little old man was lying with his eyes closed, his head seemed to have shrunk, his skin was tightly attached to his bones, his cheeks were sunken, his mouth and nose were bulging, and a small layer of white hair had grown around his ears.
It looks very much like a big mouse.
My hands shook in fright, and the candle fell from my hand. I hurriedly reached out to catch it.
At this time, a big hand grabbed the candle. After putting the candle in my hand, he held my hand firmly and said, "Take it."
"
His hand was cold, but I don't know why, but being held by him so tightly made me feel at ease, and the fear in my heart was dispelled a lot.
I held the candle tightly and said, "I've got it."
"
After hearing what I said, Yuchen let go of his hand.
I didn't dare to look into the coffin anymore and turned my head to look elsewhere.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Yuchen putting his hand into the coffin, as if taking out something.
Then he raised his hand and pushed the coffin lid back on.
"Go and burn incense.
"Yu Chen said.
I shouted, placed the ever-burning lamp in my hand, lit three sticks of incense, and put it into the incense burner.
White smoke was rising, and to my surprise, two incense sticks did not burn in the incense burner, but one incense burned very quickly.
Two long and one short!
Although I don't understand what this means, I also know that it is never a good thing to happen.
I hid behind Yuchen, "Why is Xiang like this?"
Yuchen ignored me, but stared in the direction of the coffin and shouted, "Still not leaving?!"
I followed Yuchen's gaze and saw nothing but the coffin.
But it was obvious that Yuchen was talking to someone.
A terrible idea suddenly came into my mind.
"Is he...is he there?"
"Do you want to see him?" Yuchen turned his head and looked at me.
I shook my head quickly, but before I could say the two words, I felt a sudden lightness in my body.
My whole body seemed to be squeezed into a small, dark room. There was a window in the room, so I could see what was happening in the outside world, but my body no longer obeyed my control at all.
This is when Yuchen fell in love with me.
After he got on top of me, a skinny little old man appeared on the otherwise empty black coffin.
The little old man stood on the coffin board, tapping his toes, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, a mouse-like face, and a pair of shining green eyes staring straight at me!
Oh my god!
If Yuchen hadn't controlled my body, I would have fainted from fear by this time.
"You are already dead. You should not stay in the Yang world anymore. You should turn around and be reincarnated now while you can.
"Yuchen's voice came out of my mouth.
The little old man stared at me and made a whining sound, similar to the sound made by an angry beast.
Yuchen continued, "I came to you because I wanted to let you live. If you persist in your persistence, I will make your soul fly away now.
"
The little old man seemed to be scared and took a step back, then turned around and ran away.
Yuchen raised his hand, and a strong wind blew out of my palm, directly hitting the little old man to the ground.
He controlled my body and walked over, "What will happen if you kill your children? Once you turn into a ghost and kill someone, the evil forces will not let you go."
Do you want to be a lonely ghost, or do you want to be expelled? You are dead, and all grievances in this life are over! Besides, I am here, even if you turn into a ghost, you can't hurt anyone.
"
The little old man was stunned for a moment, and then he burst into tears like a child.
Ghosts don’t have tears, their cries are just howls.
The real ghost cry is gloomy and harsh, not to mention how unpleasant it is to hear.
After howling for a long time, the little old man finally stopped. He got up, knelt down, and respectfully kowtowed to me three times. Then he raised his head and looked at me, with a pair of pleading green eyes.
Yuchen looked at him, and after a moment of silence, he said coldly, "They will not end well.
"
Hearing this, the little old man smiled, kowtowed three more times, and then his body slowly became transparent and finally disappeared.
