This time we were all frightened, and saw that the coffin lid was once again propped up with a gap from the inside.The bony paw of the old stall protruded from inside.
"Ah,...Master?" Little Fly screamed.
"Fatty, hurry up." I yelled to remind Pang Dahai.
Fat Dahai's face was pale, he gritted his teeth, and nodded at me: "Boss, issue a talisman."
I understood it, took out two bottom talismans, and quickly sketched two psychic talismans with a Chinese ink brush.
I pinched the talisman with two fingers, recited a set of psychic spells, and lit the talisman on the oil lamp that had not been completely extinguished.
The two talismans burned, and I threw them into the snake group, and the talisman was completely burned in mid-air in an instant.
Pang Dahai grabbed a handful of gnocchi with his hands, threw them down towards the snakes in front of him, and at the same time shouted loudly: "The head of the family is wounded, and the family immortal avoids it. The celestial master is here, sitting in the middle hall..."
Those little gnocchi fell from the sky like raindrops.
Then an astonishing scene happened, those snake bodies that were standing upright suddenly piled up, and then the gnocchi that fell from the air swallowed their stomachs.
The snake that swallowed the gnocchi twisted its body and slowly retreated from the door.
Seeing this, I felt relieved, it seems that the fat man's method has worked.
I also noticed that as the snakes left, the hand stretched out by the old man in the coffin slowly retracted.
My judgment is also correct, the situation where the snake stands here is related to the coffin of the old stall.
Chapter 543 Scorpio Lone Star
There must be something wrong with the old stall's death, at least he didn't die normally.Now that the mourning hall has not been withdrawn, the old stall's soul should not have left here either.These snakes may have been attracted by the soul of the old stall.
But Fat Dahai didn't dare to be negligent, and continued to throw those fine gnocchi into the air.It is said to be gnocchi, but it has been kneaded into small balls the size of rice grains by the fat man.
The large group of snakes retreated quickly after devouring the gnocchi mixed with lamp oil.
After the fat man spilled the last handful of gnocchi, his body softened and he sat down on the ground.
In the yard, the traces on the ground left by those snakes swimming out are still there, and those gnocchi that have not been swallowed are also scattered in the yard.
At this moment, I noticed that the remaining gnocchi in the yard were quickly swept away by a large swarm of black ants.Those black ants are each nearly two centimeters long, and they gather together in groups, which makes people get goosebumps when they look at them.
They didn't know where they came from, and they came and went quickly. After plundering the remaining gnocchi, the scene was empty again.
Looking back at everything that just happened, we really suspected that we had experienced a dream.
I glanced back, and thankfully the coffin lid was back on.
The little fly was also covered in sweat, and he who looked extremely calm before now looked in shock.
The three of us each found a stool and sat in the mourning hall.
I wiped the sweat from my brow and asked Little Fly: "Tell me, what's going on? How did Mr. Tan die?"
"Ill... died of illness..."
"Nonsense. If Mr. Tan really died, he wouldn't have died normally. Otherwise, his corpse wouldn't have undergone a deadly change. You can't hide this from us."
While Pang Dahai yelled at Little Fly, he kept wiping the sweat off his face with his hands.
But he had just grabbed the flour and lamp oil with his hands, and when he wiped it on his face, it made a gaudy face, almost like a grimace.It was supposed to be funny, but now we look at him, no one is happy, and we are all worried.Coupled with Pang Haihai's intentionally ferocious expression, in the atmosphere of this mourning hall, he looked hideous, and I trembled when I saw it.
The little fly didn't dare to look at Pang Dahai, lowered his head and said in a muttering voice: "Master...Master...has been poisoned by the corpse..."
Fat Dahai stood up from the stool and shouted at the little fly: "You still talking nonsense? Don't think I don't know. Your master is a bone picker. He deals with corpses all day long. He will be poisoned by corpses? Your master If he told you that, then either he lied to you, or the two of you made up nonsense together to deceive me and my boss."
Unexpectedly, the little fly also stood up from the stool this time, and confronted Pang Haihai: "You can say anything about me, but don't say anything about my master. My master will never lie to me. Whoever tells you that the bone picker will not Will you be poisoned by corpses? Let me ask you, if a doctor contacts patients every day, will the doctor not get sick? Will the doctor not be infected with a cold?"
"You..." Pang Dahai was rendered speechless by the rebuttal of the little fly, and remained silent for a long time.
Then, the fat man said to me again: "Boss, this little fly... seems to make sense..."
I was amused in my heart, so I quickly pulled the fat man to sit down again, and complained: "Can you listen to the little fly and know how to roar, what are you roaring?"
There was nothing wrong with the little fly's refutation of Fatty's words.It is precisely because the old stallhead deals with corpses all day long that he is more likely to be infected with corpse poison than ordinary people.However, the old stall has been picking bones for many years, and should have taken quite strict precautions, but this time it was suddenly infected with corpse poison. The news is indeed shocking.
I asked the little fly again: "Mr. Tan has been infected with corpse poison, is it serious?"
After asking this sentence, I felt that it was unnecessary to ask. Mr. Tan is lying in the coffin, can it be serious?
Little Fly was not serious about my questioning. With a sad expression on his face, he slowly recounted a past event a few days ago: "Master came back from outside that day, and his face was ugly. I thought it was him. Tired, I cooked a table of meals and warmed a pot of wine for him..."
I looked at Xiao Yingzi and interjected, "So, you are really Master Tan's apprentice?"
The little fly glanced at me, smiled wryly and said, "You still don't believe me."
I shook my head and said honestly: "I just think that Mr. Tan is used to being lonely. When I came last time, he never told me that he wanted to accept apprentices. In less than a year, he will accept Without you, I just feel weird."
Little Fly nodded: "You're right, Master really has no intention of taking apprentices. It's purely by chance that I met Master. I was picked up by Master."
"I picked up the bone and picked it up?"
"That's right." Little Fly slowly told us about his life experience.
It turns out that Xiao Yingzi's life experience is also very pitiful. He originally lived in a village eighty miles away from here. His parents died shortly after he was born. No one would take him in without his parents.At that time, a wandering Taoist priest came to the village. Seeing that the little fly was pitiful, he took him in.There was no place to live, so the Taoist took him to live in the Earth Temple.People in the village occasionally send them some food.The Taoist priest was kind-hearted, and kept raising the little fly, but he refused to let the little fly recognize him as his master.That's because at that time the Taoist should have figured out the fate of the little fly, and it would indeed kill the people around him.
Even so, the Taoist priest died of a serious illness when he was a little fly.The little fly felt sad, not only killed his parents, but also killed his benefactor.So he decided to stay away from the village and live in the mountains.Since then no contact with people.
It is indeed rare to make such a decision at Xiao Feizi's age.But the life in Shenshan was even more difficult. Within half a year, he caught a cold.In the process of going up the mountain to collect medicine by himself, he fell into the valley.
Just at this time, the old stall owner came here to pick the bones and found him, and rescued him back home.
When he learned of his fate, the old stall was not worried but happy, saying that he thought he would be lonely in this life, but he did not expect to meet him.Because the old stall owner has a job of picking bones, he is doomed to live a lonely life.You can't keep people around, otherwise you will kill your relatives.He and the little fly can just complement each other. They will live alone without each other, but they can complement each other when they are together.
So the old stall took Xiao Feizi as his only apprentice.
Chapter 544
The old stall and the little fly, before they met, they were all alone.Unexpectedly, after getting together, they depend on each other, but they complement each other very well.
The old stall owner taught Xiao Yingzi how to pick corpses, and Xiao Yingzi took care of the old stall owner's daily life.Although it was only a few months, the relationship was very deep.Unexpectedly, the good times didn't last long. Just a few days ago, the old stall head came back from outside with a livid face.
The little fly didn't know why, so he asked the master why.
The old stall owner didn't say much at first, he just locked himself in the room and didn't even eat the food sent by the little fly.
After a whole day like this, at night the old stall finally called the little fly into the house.
In just one day, the little fly found that the old stall was completely useless, with sunken eye sockets, and his already skinny body looked even weaker.
The old stall head told the little fly that he was infected with corpse poison when he went out, and the time limit has come.
The little fly was in so much pain that he blamed himself that in the end it was because he beat the old stall to death.
The old stall shook his head and said that it was not his fault.And told him to do a few things well after his death.This is related to whether you can have a good death and be reincarnated.
Hearing this, I know that what the old stall owner told me is very important.Maybe you can get some valuable information from it.
First of all, the old stall owner told Xiao Yingzi that in a few days old friends from afar might visit, so let him treat him well.Try to meet any requirements.
As the little fly said, he looked up at Pang Dahai and me.Obviously we are the old friends from afar that the old stall said.
Secondly, the old stall owner also told the little fly that he had been poisoned by the corpse, and although he died, a corpse change was likely to occur.If there is a corpse change, the coffin will be sealed with ink thread to ensure that the corpse change will be suppressed within three days.But on the second day after the corpse change, the sealed coffin must be carried to a nearby cemetery in Fuyang Mountain for burial, where the feng shui can dissolve the poison of the corpse.
I nodded: "That is to say, the death of your master has nothing to do with whether I can open the coffin, does it?"
The little fly lowered its head, apparently acquiescing.
Pang Dahai asked again: "Your master told you that there will be a visit from an old man, why did he not say that the old man will come?"
Little Fly shook his head: "That's not true."
"Hey..." Pang Dahai said angrily, "This old man is dead. Then what you owe us is just written off like this?"
The little fly was taken aback, and hurriedly argued: "You are talking nonsense, why would my master owe you anything?"
Pang Haihai said: "You little fly is still not convinced, you ask my boss, does your master owe us something? We are here this time to get it back. If your master doesn't pay it back, you have to pay it back. I'm going to Look in your master's room to see if your master has been hidden."
Speaking of Pang Dahai, he made a gesture to go in and search, but the little fly hurriedly stopped him.
I stopped Fat Dahai, Jiaqing Tongbao and other important things, the old stall owner knew he was going to die, no matter whether he deliberately hid the king's money or not, it was impossible not to make arrangements before he died.Since he didn't give it to Little Fly, then this thing would definitely not be in his house.
I took a look at the coffin, and after those snake lixiang receded, there was no movement from the corpse in the coffin.
I asked the little fly: "Then what should we do next? Your master has turned into a dead body. Will he be buried tomorrow?"
Little Fly nodded: "I didn't expect so many things to happen. Speaking of it, I still have to thank you. If you didn't withdraw those snakes, I really don't know what to do? Master didn't tell me before he died. These……"
I waved my hand: "Your master said that we are old friends, and we will definitely help to the end. Do you know the location of the cemetery that your master found?"
The little fly said: "I know. That place is not far from where I used to live. But it's a little far from here. With such a big coffin, we're afraid..."
When Pang Dahai heard it, he stared and said, "I said little fly, what do you think. You don't want us to help you carry the coffin, do you?"
"No, no. But people in this village, when they mention my master, they are afraid to avoid it, and no one is willing to help carry the coffin." The little fly was a little distressed, with a sad expression on his face.
I know that in some places in the countryside, people have to pay attention to personal temperament.Generally, when someone dies in a villager's family, there will be unconditional help from the neighbors and neighbors. This is a kind of atmosphere among neighbors.If there is no one to help at home, it means that the family is not popular and will be shamed.
But the old stall here was an accident, and the profession he was engaged in was also doomed that no one would want to approach him.In addition, with the addition of a little fly from the lone star of the evil spirit, this is the place where the folks talk about it.
This is not difficult to understand. When we passed by Nanliu Village, the children who followed us all fled when they saw that we were going this way.
I thought about it, and took out a wad of money from my bag.The money is almost 1 yuan. As the saying goes, a poor family gets rich. This time, the fat man and I came out and brought some cash with us just in case.We played together, ate together, spent part of it, and left over.
I counted out 5000 yuan and put it on the table.
When the little fly saw the cash, his eyes straightened, and he looked at me again, not knowing what it meant.
I pointed to the money and said, "Little Fly, you use the money to hire people in the village. Is there anyone willing to help carry the coffin?"
The little fly was stunned for a moment, then realized, nodded quickly and said: "There should be, money can make ghosts go round, let alone people. People in this village may not be able to see so much money after three years of hard work. It’s really not worth the money…”
I waved my hand: "You use the money to find someone, and you decide how much you use. The rest will be given to you."
Xiao Yingzi was very surprised, but it could be seen that although he was young, he handled things fairly.He picked up the money and said, "I'll go find someone. If there's any money left, I'll refund it to you. I thank you on behalf of Master..."
As he said that, the little fly bowed to me, and also bowed to Pang Dahai by the way.
Unknowingly, the little fly changed the name of us from you to you.
This shows that the little fly has recognized us and thinks that we are old friends of his master who really want to help.
The little fly looked at the sky and said, "It seems that I have to wait until tomorrow morning before I can find someone."
I waved my hand: "You go to bed first. I promise to watch for Lord Tan tonight, and I will be the guard in the mourning hall tonight."
The little fly turned around to look at the coffin, nodded, and returned to the bone room again.
Seeing the little fly gone, Pang Dahai said, "Boss, are we really going to bury the old man tomorrow?"
Chapter 545 Find someone to carry the coffin
I nodded: "I met the old stall once, and I should send him off for the last time. In addition, I feel that the old stall is still a bit strange. I have to find out where our Jiaqing Tongbao is now. Even if I have fallen, and I have to know where to go. Otherwise, how can I explain to my third uncle when I go back."
Pang Dahai nodded and said: "That's what you said. But even if we go to bury the old man, will there be any news about this Jiaqing Tongbao?"
"Give it a try. I have a hunch that it might not be so easy to bury the old stall."
"Boss, why do you say that?"
I smiled wryly and said, "You don't even think about it, just the two of us have such a little bit of knowledge, so we returned those Snake Lixiangs. This is a bit abnormal."
Pang Dahai waved his hand: "Boss, I don't agree with what you said. You can't belittle yourself, we have learned runes from my master for so long, and we have seen so many worlds with my uncle. I feel that we both He's not considered a first-rate expert, but he's considered a minor accomplishment in Taoism, right? It's still no problem to deal with some small and sneaky people."
I glanced at Pang Haihai: "Fatty, let's be a little self-aware, okay? Others don't know, and I don't know the Taoism of our three-legged cats?"
Fat Dahai chuckled: "Boss, don't believe it, anyway, I think we're pretty good. I've already slept, so I'll just stay here to watch the spirit. You'd better go to sleep..."
I shook my head, how could I sleep in this situation.I'm even more worried about leaving Fatty here by himself.
Pang Dahai and I watched here with wide eyes and small eyes, and burned a lot of paper money for the old stall, for fear that something would happen to his corpse.
Fortunately, in the middle of the night, nothing happened either in the coffin or in the yard.It wasn't until I heard a rooster crow in the village that I breathed a sigh of relief.
The rooster crows, indicating that it is dawn.Ghosts everywhere will retreat when they hear the rooster crowing.After daybreak, even if the corpse of the old stall turned into a dead body, it probably wouldn't be a big deal.
After dawn, the little fly came out of the bone room on time.
Pang Dahai stared at the little fly with red eyes, and said: "You are welcome, we came from a long distance, we didn't care about food and drink, but we kept guard for you all night."
The little fly blushed, and said, "To tell you the truth, I didn't go to bed either. Master explained some precautions for burial. I prepared things according to his instructions..."
Sure enough, I found that the little fly also had a tired face and red eyes.He should have stayed up longer than us.
