My master is invincible

Chapter 337 Nine Coffins (60)

Hearing this, I was stunned for a moment, raised my eyes and looked around, the snow on the ground had been cleaned up.How strange, with Fatty Guo's laziness, he would clean up the snow around the other coffins.

Just as I was about to ask him why, I heard the sound of 'Zhi, Zhi'. I turned my head and saw that the door of the ancestral hall opened.

As the door of the ancestral hall opened, many people appeared at the door, all of whom were masters of metaphysics who had met me once. It is worth mentioning that Joyce was also among them. She glanced at me and ignored me I, there is a hint of disgust in my eyes.

"Ninth brother, have a cigarette!" Seeing that I didn't speak, Fatty Guo pushed me.

I came back to my senses, took out a cigarette, gave him one, and said with a smile, "Fatty Guo, why are you working so hard today?"

He smiled and said, "The old hero is an anti-Japanese hero. I don't know which coffin he lay in, so I had to clear all the snow."

I nodded, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Fatty, no matter how you usually are, this funeral, you must be very energetic."

"Okay!" He laughed and agreed.

Afterwards, several of us got busy next to the coffin. Since the location was very narrow, it was impossible to place the Eight Immortals table near the coffin as an ashram.

I placed the three wooden square stools on the left side of the coffin, and put some burnt coals under the wooden square stools for sticking incense and candles.

After doing all this, I checked the time. It was 7:[-], and the whole venue was a little lively. I roughly looked at some coffins. The masters of metaphysics were well prepared.

Take the sixth coffin next to me as an example. The soul-inducing flags they made are made of gold thread, which looks golden and extremely luxurious.There is also the altar, the desktop is inlaid with 28 pieces of gold, and the statues of 28 stars are carved on it.

On the whole, except for the seventh coffin, the other coffins are very luxurious, and all kinds of magical and Taoist instruments on the table can be named, especially the ninth coffin, even the Taishang Laojun's whisk Also took it out.

Seeing this, Fatty Guo pulled me, and muttered, "Ninth Brother, are we too shabby? Look at their altars, which are full of brilliance, and look at us, they are just ordinary funeral utensils."

I smiled and said, "The thing that matters in funerals is not the thing, but the heart. Sincerity makes everything go well. Otherwise, even putting thousands of catties of gold on it is useless."

"But...but..., in terms of pomp and circumstance, we have already lost." Fatty Guo said unconvinced.

I shook my head and said, "If we lose in the field, it just means that our economic strength is not as strong as theirs, so it doesn't mean anything."

After finishing speaking, I ignored him and looked around the ancestral hall. It was almost 8 o'clock, and the funeral was about to begin. Why didn't the nine sons of the Lu family show up yet?If they don't come, the black and white photos of the three animals on the table and the old heroes will not be displayed.

After waiting for about seven or eight minutes, the nine sons of the Lu family finally appeared at the entrance of the village, followed by a large crowd of women and children.

"Ninth brother, why didn't Mrs. Lu come?" Fatty Guo pointed at the group of people and said in a low voice.

I looked along where he pointed, but I really didn't see Mrs. Lu, but after thinking about it, according to the custom of funerals, the husband dies and the wife stays, which means that the husband's funeral, the woman can only stay at home until the husband's funeral After that, you can step out of the house.

I told Fatty Guo this statement.

After hearing this, he didn't speak any more, and continued to be busy with the work at hand.I kept my eyes on Lu's eldest son, who was holding a blank piece of paper in his hand. If I guessed correctly, the blank piece of paper should be 'Open Book'.

To be honest, I'm curious whose signature the 'Open Book' will be.So, I waved to Fatty Guo and said, "Let's wait at the gate of the ancestral hall, and the 'Open Book' will be posted there later."

"Okay!" Fatty Guo responded, and followed me, walking towards the entrance of the ancestral hall.

When I came to the entrance of the ancestral hall, I glanced into the ancestral hall, and there was a strong smell of firewood. In the innermost position, there was an Eight Immortals table with black and white photos of the old heroes and some tributes.

It is worth mentioning that four red stones are placed in the four corners of the ancestral hall, and three pillars of fragrance are inserted next to each stone. Judging from the posture, what kind of formation should it be.

Fatty Guo seemed to have noticed those stones, and asked softly, "Ninth brother, is that a Taoist formation?"

I nodded and didn't speak.

He asked again: "It looks very powerful, what formation is it?"

I smiled wryly and said, "I'm just a coffin bearer, not a Taoist, so I don't know what formation it is."

Just as we were talking, the nine sons of the Lu family walked towards the ancestral hall, and those masters of metaphysics also came over, and greeted the nine sons of the Lu family with flattering expressions, and their words were full of flattery.

I usually don't like these people the most, but remembering that they are all members of the Metaphysics Association, it is hard to say anything, so I sullenly pulled Fatty Guo aside, and waited quietly for the eldest son of Lu to post an 'open book'.

The nine sons of the Lu family are worthy of being businessmen. In terms of communication, they did make a couple of mistakes, but within 2 minutes, they dismissed those masters of metaphysics.

Immediately afterwards, the eldest son of Lu walked into the ancestral hall, took out some rice paste, and pasted the 'open book' on the left side of the ancestral hall.

I raised my eyes to look at the 'open book', and saw some words written vertically on the left side of the 'open book', Chinese Shuo De Lu Fu Shaoyun enjoys life.

When it comes to these words, I have to mention the meaning of these words. Zhonghua means China, and Shuode means Confucian scholars. It is an elegant name for the deceased. It is also written in some places. For women, write 'Confucianism' or 'Shu De'.

Many people may not understand what longevity means.There are many details in this 'opening book', as in this longevity means that the deceased is over 96 years old.

If the deceased is under the age of 15, it will be written as Young Shou, 25 to 26 is Weak Shou, 35 to 36 is Strong Shou, 45 to 46 is Strong Shou, 55 to 56 is Ai Shou, 65 to 66 is Longevity It is senior life, 75 to 76 is rare life, 85 to 86 is old life, and 95 to [-] is long life.

Since the deceased is a woman, when writing the life span, it is very simple. If the deceased gave birth to descendants, regardless of age, they will be written as Taijun, and if they have not given birth to a son and a half daughter, they will be written as a young girl.

This is the "Kaishu" life planning table left over from the Tang Dynasty. I don't know why, even now, when writing "Kaishu", it is written according to this life table.
