We did whatever we wanted. We finished cooking at noon and warmed the rice in the pot. Lulu and Zhaoting stayed at home to fry the glutinous rice. Shen Zhaoshan and Zhou Cheng and I took the shovels and walked to Laohetao.
The center of the Laohetao is opposite the cemeteries of four villages, and the terrain is low-lying. It is the only place where we can gather shade.
The three of us first stood by the river and took a look.
The weather is cold, and even the sand is a little hard. The trees around Laohetao were planted just a few years ago, not hiding from the view at all, and the sky is gray.
It looks like no one's land.
"Do you still remember where you are?" Shen Zhaoshan asked me.
I nodded: "Come with me."
I almost died in that position, how could I forget it.
After a while, we found the location where the second uncle drew the magic circle.
Shen Zhaoshan squatted down and pinched a handful of sand: "The sand here is obviously wetter than other places."
He pinched his fingers and calculated: "That's it, Zhou Cheng digs it."
"Here comes Brother Shen!"
I also put on my gloves and prepared to dig, but the two of them pushed me aside and said I was in the way...
I can only stand aside and wait for them.
The two of them dug so hard that sand flew all over the sky, and I didn't dare to open my eyes when the wind blew.
"It appeared." After Shen Zhaoshan said that, I opened my eyes.
The two of them were squatting beside the shallow pit, with a small black coffin exposed in the middle.
After that, the two of them started digging again. After about half an hour, the black coffin was completely exposed. As expected, there were seven peach wood nails on the side of the coffin.
However, what we expected and expected was that although the coffin was suppressed by peach wood nails, the bottom of the coffin was completely broken.
"It seems that the zombie is indeed Chengda." Shen Zhaoshan said while turning over the broken coffin.
Inside the coffin, the scratch marks on the wooden board were clearly visible, one by one, just like those scratched by wild animals when sharpening their claws.
There is something else in the coffin.
It was a palm-sized red purse.
Zhou Cheng picked it up and opened it: "Is this something Qian Dabao gave them for their shady marriage?"
Later, Zhou Cheng took out a marriage certificate with white characters on a black background, Tian Weiyu's and Cheng Da's hair and nails, and a red bean tied with a red thread.
"We're all here, let's help Tian Weiyu and Chengda resolve their dark marriage." After Zhou Cheng finished speaking, he put the things back into his pocket and burned them with a lighter.
When the purse was burning, it actually smelled like rotten meat, which was particularly unpleasant.
I covered my nose and looked around worriedly: "You are too quick. Tian Weiyu hasn't been found yet. She is a powerful ghost now and is a disaster wherever she goes."
Zhou Cheng didn't care at all: "What are you afraid of? The old Mrs. Jiang's family that Tian Weiyu hates now will not harm the villagers."
Shen Zhaoshan slapped him on the head angrily: "You know?"
Zhou Cheng wailed, threw the remaining purse into the coffin unhappily, pouted and said, "Then I've burned it, what else can I do?"
That peach wood nail can still be used.
I hurriedly dug out the peach wood nails, and then the coffin burst into flames.
Shen Zhaoshan folded his arms, dragged his chin, and looked at the flames thoughtfully: "Is Mao Zong serious? Even peach wood nails can't restrain him. We have to be very energetic."
…
When we got home, my mother had already asked the village chief to organize people to start decorating the village with evil-proof things again.
Lulu, Zhaoting, and my dad all went to help.
People in the village were chattering and busy working until four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost dark.
"Everyone, let's stop here. Everyone should go home and wait, hide, and don't come out." My mother gave the order, and everyone in the village immediately ran away.
I stood in the square and took a look outside.
The cold wind was blowing loudly, and the bare trees outside the courtyard walls of every household were covered with red-threaded copper coins fried with glutinous rice.
When the wind blows, it makes a tinkling sound.
Every house has lights on.
The swaying red copper coins in the night were like hair strands tied with stones.
My hand was suddenly held. When I looked down, Zhao Ting's little face was full of nervousness: "Hey, sister, I've seen zombies."
"Don't be afraid." I touched Zhao Ting's little head. His hair was soft, smooth and easy to touch. "Mom will protect us."
Zhou Cheng held the mahogany sword used by Lulu during the day in his hand, and sprang out from behind me. He smacked his tongue meaningfully for a while: "I thought you were so awesome back then, flying in the sky and hiding on the earth, omnipotent, but now you actually need protection."
A foot suddenly kicked Zhou Cheng on the back.
Zhou Cheng groaned and fell straight down.
Lulu appeared where Zhou Cheng was standing and flipped her hair coolly: "Why do you talk so much nonsense?"
Then, the two Lulu brothers put their arms around my shoulders and said with a smile: "Look, I have learned martial arts for so many years, now I have some use for it, right? Just keep it in your heart, you will take care of everything."
I couldn't laugh or cry: "Yes, yes, sister Lu, please protect me."
"That is required."
Shen Zhaoshan suddenly said: "Zhou Cheng, take Bai Lulu and Zhao Ting back."
As soon as Zhou Cheng got up, his face fell: "Why don't you take me?"
Lulu also refused, and Zhaoting's head shook like a rattle.
My mother turned around and smiled helplessly: "Okay, okay, if you don't want to leave, just stay here and hide yourself."
We were still chatting for a while, when the village dog suddenly started barking wildly.
One after another, the cries are excited and sandwiched together, like a signal.
We stopped talking at the same time.
Lulu immediately pulled Zhao Ting and me and ran into the tree line surrounding the small square.
At the same time, Shen Zhaoshan and Zhou Cheng quickly lit the short incense, and Hai Dali and Zhou Cheng's other teacher quickly got into their bodies.
Zhaoting exclaimed: "Uncle Shen and Brother Zhou, why have they changed?"
Although a person possessed by the Immortal Family still looks like a human, his expression and body shape will be somewhat similar to that of the Immortal Family.
I took Zhaoting's soft little hand and said, "They are possessed by the Xian family."
"Wow! Is it just like the Armored Warrior?"
"...You can think so."
Lulu rolled her eyes, stretched out her hands from behind Zhao Ting, and grabbed his face: "It's not like you haven't seen her before, so there's no need to make up lies just to get closer to your sister, right?"
Zhao Ting turned around and pounced on Lulu to start a fight.
"Haha." Laughter suddenly appeared behind me.
I was startled, turned my head quickly, and saw my dad's snow-white porcelain teeth: "Oh dad, you scared me."
"I haven't talked about you yet, but you guys hid in and left me behind. Do you still have me as your father in your heart?"
"I……"
Lulu suddenly lowered her voice: "Here we come."
My dad and I froze for a moment, and both turned our heads to look in the direction Lulu was looking.
