The third day of the funeral, night.

Funerals in rural areas are very complicated, especially those from the village, who will come to help.

The funeral was lively during the day, but people had already dispersed at night.

The mourning hall tent and other things were all built by the villagers, and the singing team and the chef were also called by the village chief - otherwise, how could Chen Yan, a 22-year-old young man, understand these things?

Chen Yan didn't cry much during these three days.

Firstly, when people are extremely sad, they don't want to cry much.

In fact, the emotions are blocked, and they have to wait until after the event, slowly react, and then they can cry freely.

Secondly... these three days, I was busy kowtowing. When a guest came, the filial son and grandson would accompany him to kowtow.

Chen Yan was the only one in the old Chen family, and the old lady didn't even have a relative.

In the huge mourning hall, Chen Yan was the only one wearing mourning clothes.

I don't know how many times I kowtowed in these three days, and my head was confused.

Kneeling in front of the mourning hall to keep vigil that night, Chen Yan still feels like he is dreaming.

Looking at the coffin in the mourning hall, the old lady is lying inside.

And... the room is full of mourning couplets and wreaths.

Well, on the largest wreath at the door, it is written: Eternal Fame.

The signature is: West Lake Little Ma.

When Boss Ma came to pay his respects, he was still very low-key, but he was a little regretful when he left. He held Chen Yan's hand and talked a lot. Before leaving, he handed over a business card, which was said to be his personal phone number.

But after asking a few questions, I heard that Chen Yan did not learn the skills of the old lady. He was just a clear and stupid college graduate, and he was still a fresh graduate.

Chen Yan actually felt that Boss Ma's attitude was much more distant.

·

All the experiences in the past few days flashed in front of his eyes like a movie, and Chen Yan felt a little tired.

In fact, he hadn't closed his eyes for two days.

It was already midnight, just after twelve o'clock, and Chen Yan knelt on the futon in the mourning hall, his body a little weak.

In the past two days, he hardly ate anything. The only thing he ate was the dish of edamame and pork shreds left by the old lady when she died.

Well, not a single edamame was wasted. He ate them all.

In the next two days, he didn't eat anything.

In fact, he was just so upset that he didn't feel hungry.

At this moment, kneeling on the mat in the mourning hall, his eyes were a little dizzy.

At this moment, suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew over, and Chen Yan shuddered.

He looked up at the main door of the hall, which was closed.

Where did the wind come from?

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, suddenly, the main door of the hall opened silently...

A ball of cold air rushed into the room!

In the middle of the night, the door opened by itself, and the wind blew...

It was above the mourning hall!

Just say it's scary?

Chen Yan swallowed hard, forcing himself to be calm, and wanted to get up to take a look and close the door by the way.

But the next second, his composure was suddenly shattered by a scene in front of him!

In the yard outside the main hall...

Suddenly, in that empty place, two figures came out of nowhere and landed in the yard.

Then they floated and walked to the door!

Well, they really floated in! You can't really see where their legs are.

The black crown, black robe and black face on the left, the white crown, white robe and white face on the right.

Chen Yan was stunned! !

Black, white...

I didn't pee on the spot, thanks to not drinking much water today!

Chen Yan felt his legs were weak, and he couldn't stand up, and leaned against the wall behind him!

His mouth opened, but he couldn't shout a word.

Don't laugh at him for being timid.

In the middle of the night, the mourning hall! This scene, this atmosphere, suddenly there are two people in front of you.

If it were you, you would pee too!

·

The two guys floated into the main hall, and the surroundings were suddenly cold.

And they raised their heads, staring at the tablet in front of the coffin in the mourning hall.

Chen Yan's throat contracted, and his heart was pounding.

And then, suddenly, the two guys bent down in front of the tablet.

Bowed to the ground!

Chen Yan was stunned.

This...

Such a great ceremony?

Suddenly, his throat was no longer tight, and the tense muscles on his body relaxed.

"You two!"

Chen Yan finally squeezed out a sound from his throat: "You, are you here to arrest the soul of my old lady?"

Hearing this, the two guys turned around and looked at Chen Yan.

"What did you say, filial son and grandson?" The one who spoke was the one in black clothes.

Chen Yan swallowed his saliva and mustered up his courage: "I said, are you here to arrest the soul of my old lady?"

The words were finally heard clearly, but surprisingly, the two guys shuddered in unison after hearing what Chen Yan said.

As if he had heard something extremely scary.

The man in white kept waving his hands: "Oh! Don't dare! How dare you say a word of [detention]!"

The man in black next to him, with a dark face, actually tried to squeeze out a few smile lines.

The two guys looked at each other, and then looked at Chen Yan together, and their tone was actually polite:

"We are here to welcome the old man back to take office."

Chen Yan: "......?"

Welcome?

Go back?

Take office? ?

Chen Yan suddenly felt that his brain was not enough.

·

The next second, Chen Yan saw a transparent figure in the coffin, passing through the coffin and slowly sitting up. It was the old lady in his family!

Hypocritical... Ah bah!

No, it's the voice and appearance...

No, that's not right.

It's lifelike!

Well, but just looking at the person, it seems to be translucent.

The old lady floated on the ground, and then...

The black and white people suddenly bowed to the old lady, and the two famous ghost officials knelt on the ground together!

Wow~~! (Guo...)

This is a big ceremony!

Chen Yan was stunned!

No, what kind of scene is this!

You just dragged Yama here, and these two guys would only perform such a big ceremony, right?

Is the old lady really dead? Why do you feel that this death is more majestic than life?

... Go back to work?

The bitter drama has become a happy story? !

·

The old lady seemed to be looking at the two ghost messengers. After looking at them for a few times, she nodded, waved her hand, and floated out of the house.

Chen Yan stared at his old lady. He subconsciously stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to say something, but his mouth was dry and he couldn't say a word.

At this time, the old lady suddenly turned around and smiled gently at Chen Yan.

Then, Chen Yan heard the old lady's voice suddenly coming from his ears.

The voice was floating, far and near... Well, it sounded like the voice of people watching ghost movies.

"My dear grandson, I told you not to be sad.

The old lady left something for you. Go to the well in our yard, ten steps south of the well mouth, and dig down to find it."

The voice said just this, and there was nothing else.

Watching the old lady, accompanied by the black and white, three figures floated out of the yard...

Then, nothing could be seen.

·

Chen Yan suddenly shuddered, and then suddenly woke up!

He leaned against the wall, and the mourning hall in the house was empty, and the door was closed.

He got up and pushed open the door of the main room. Outside the yard, the night was silent, and the yard was even more empty. Where did the figure come from?

Touching his back again, he was already sweating!

The wind blew, and his body was chilly.

Chen Yan calmed down: Is this, a dream?

Recalling the scene in the dream, it was too realistic and too clear!

He was actually not sure whether it was just a dream or it really happened.

Let's put it this way, Chen Yan is an atheist.

Yes, that's right.

But... in fact, he is like most young people in this world.

I am an atheist, but it doesn't stop me from being afraid of ghosts~

·

A few seconds later, with a strange idea in his mind, Chen Yan suddenly stood up, walked to the corner of the wall, took out a shovel, and ran straight to the well in the yard!

Chen Yan recalled what the old lady had said in his dream: The well is to the south, take ten steps!

He spat into his palm.

Start digging!

An hour later, Chen Yan sat on the ground, panting, with the shovel stuck in the ground.

A pit beside him was empty.

The pit was very deep, and Chen Yan really put in a lot of effort.

If he continued digging, he might be able to dig a well in this pit!

"Am I really dreaming just now?"

Chen Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

What on earth am I thinking about.

What on earth am I expecting?

But deep in his heart, there was still a touch of emotion, as if he was unwilling to give up.

The dream was really too strange and too clear.

Most people dream, and after waking up, the dream is vague, and they can only remember a rough idea at most. How could it be so clear?

Unwilling to give up, Chen Yan thought:

Maybe the old lady remembered it wrong because she was old? The well is not to the south, but to the north?

I forced myself to take ten steps to the north of the well and continued digging!

Half an hour later...

There was nothing!

Chen Yan calmed down and took a breath.

No... Could it be to the west?

Or to the east?

An hour later...

It was almost dawn, and the roosters at the entrance of the village had already crowed!

In the yard, a circle of trenches was dug around the well!!

But apart from a few earthworms, there was not a single hair!

"Uh, really, just a dream?" Chen Yan frowned and looked at the main hall.

In the main hall, the old lady's huge portrait, with a kind smile.

After a while, Chen Yan patted his head.

He seemed to have figured it out.

Yes, there must be a problem!

The problem is...

The old lady, she is short and has short legs!

The old lady is only a little over 1.5 meters tall, and I am 1.8 meters tall.

Can the ten steps the old lady said be the same as the ten steps I, Chen, took? !

This time, the distance was re-estimated, and the digging started again at the position seven steps south of the well.

Half an hour later, with a clang, the shovel seemed to be stuck on something hard!

Chen Yan was shocked!

It really is there!

So... it's not a dream? !

Chen Yan's heart was pounding, and he quickly put away the shovel, knelt on the ground and dug with both hands, and dug out a small box from the soil.

He returned to the main room with the small box and put it on the ground, then turned around and closed the door.

He opened the box with a dry mouth and a confused heart.

At the top of his eyes was a letter.
