Mysterious Resurrection

Chapter 178
"Die! You're all going to die! You're all going to die!"
This startled Lu An, he wanted to look forward to see the situation of this maid, so he didn't intend to keep pretending?
"You're all going to die, no one gets out of here alive, no one!"

Lu An found that the girl's flesh-and-blood body had slowly changed into a paper figurine again.
Lu An felt a feeling of dizziness. When she woke up again, she found that she was sitting in the same seat before. Lu An turned her head to look at the pile of paper figures, paper horses, and incense sticks. The paper people with drawn eyes are all looking at themselves
Lu An walked forward and came to the girl-like paper figurine. After thinking about it, he returned to his previous seat. Those paper figurines must be useful. If they are damaged, it may cause some bad consequences.
Lu An thought about everything he had just experienced, what was that?A threat and a warning?It seems that only Lu An himself was threatened and warned in the mourning hall

But these are not very important. When Lu An came to the portrait, he found that the photo on the portrait had changed. Originally, the old man was a frontal photo, but now the old man's body on the portrait is skewed, and his eyes are also tilted a little.

Is this looking at yourself?Lu An thought that the paper figurines and portraits in the mourning hall were abnormal, but Lu An did not dare to act rashly

Knowing is one thing, restricting, imprisoning, erasing, and destroying are another matter. Lu An knows that they have problems, but he has scruples, so he dare not take action on these problematic things

From the moment Lu An entered this mourning hall, he knew that these paper figurines with painted eyes are not ordinary. It is a truth to draw dragons without drawing eyes, and tie paper without dotting their eyes.

In the following time, apart from the abnormality on the portrait and the weird paper man, nothing else happened after that
It was seven o'clock in the morning, and everyone who was resting in the room came to the mourning hall early. They wanted to discuss what to do today?
Although it was a discussion, in fact the right to make the final decision still rests with Lu An, who has long been the core of the team

"What are you going to do today? The first day is the funeral, the second day is the encoffining, the seventh day is the resurrection of the first seven, and the sixth day is the burial, so the fifth day should be condolences. The only disputes are the fourth and fifth days." My God, that's the so-called three-in-one." Peng Fang said
"If the butcher brings mutton and pork today, then today will not be three, but tomorrow will be three." Hua Ge said
"What is the third?" Liu Jin asked weakly
"On the eve of three days, you must "receive three", also called "welcome three", "send three". "

"Before the third day, you have to go to Mingyi Shop to paste a car, horse, and box according to a certain size, style, and quality; on the third day, you have to burn paper figures, paper horses, incense and paper money to pave the way for the souls of the dead." Chen Chan said.
"Since it's three-on-one, it should be the third day, which is what we're going to do today." Liu Jin said
"The butcher's sheep and pigs have not yet been delivered. In some places, mutton and pork are also enshrined, or it is a kind of sacrifice, hoping that the dead will live well and not be bullied by the little ghosts on the road. In some places, the dead Have a full meal before going on the road," Chen Chan said.

"Isn't it already confirmed that today is the third match?" Liu Jin said
"Yes, but not sure, because local customs are different, and the butcher doesn't necessarily deliver pork and mutton today. If it is delivered tomorrow, then burn paper figurines, paper horses, joss sticks, and paper money today as normal." .”

"If you send mutton and pork, you need to sacrifice the mutton and pork first, and then start burning paper figurines, paper horses, incense candles, paper money and other funeral objects." Chen Chan explained
"Oh, I understand. If you wait for the mutton and pork, you should sacrifice the mutton and pork first, and then start burning the paper figurines, paper horses, incense candles, and paper money. If you can't wait, then burn the paper figurines and paper horse incense candles first. Paper money." Liu Jin suddenly realized

Wang Shengli on the side was also thoughtful. He didn't know much about this kind of knowledge. With Chen Chan's patient explanation right now, he naturally listened to it in his heart.
Lu An thought about what happened last night, and thought of the weird paper figurines. If these paper figurines were to be burned today, would something terrible happen?
Time continued to pass, and everyone was waiting in the mourning hall for the arrival of the butcher ghost, nine o'clock, 09:30, ten o'clock...

"Do you want to continue to wait? Continue to wait, if you miss the correct time to catch three, it will not be worth the loss." Peng Fang looked at Lu An
"Then don't wait." Lu An said
Everyone put together paper figurines, horses, incense candles, and paper money on one side of the mourning hall, waiting for Lu An's order to settle down

Lu An was also a little hesitant at this time, because he was not very clear about these detailed funeral knowledge, what should be burned first?
"First burn the paper horse, then burn the incense sticks and paper money, and finally burn the paper man." Lu An said
Lu An always felt that the paper figurines should not be the first to burn, perhaps because of his experience last night, he had some fear of these paper figurines

"After that, there was a crackling sound in the mourning hall. It was the sound of fire burning bamboo, and what was burning was a paper horse."

After that, there are incense candles and paper money. Because there is no incense burner, the lit incense candles are all held by hand, and the paper money is placed in the basin I found before.
Lu An ignited it with a fire, and the flames rushed high, and then came the final link of burning paper figurines, and the voice of a woman crying softly sounded in Lu An's mind
The movements in Lu An's hands did not stop at all, and he threw the paper figurines into the fire, and soon, the paper figurines were all burned up.
"These ashes are slowly disappearing!" Brother Hua said in surprise

Afterwards, everyone saw that the black ashes from these funerary objects were disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon all the traces of burning on the ground had disappeared.
If it weren't for the large open space suddenly vacated beside the mourning hall, and the basin on the ground, who would have believed that so many funerary objects had been burnt here just now?
"This should be considered over, right?" Peng Fang said.

"It should be over." Lu An said
However, as soon as the words fell, the people in the mourning hall heard a sound of chanting Buddhist scriptures, and the direction of the sound turned out to be outside the gate of the house.

Lu An immediately left the mourning hall, and the group of people behind him also left together, leaving only Cui Zisheng to guard the mourning hall
Lu An saw a bald monk standing outside the open gate of the house. The monk's face was a bit haggard, and he looked about sixty or seventy years old.
Lu An speculates that this should be a monk dressed as an ascetic monk, perhaps only an ascetic monk can be so thin, with dry skin, and he can see the bones and blood vessels inside with his hands

But in this supernatural place, who would treat this ascetic monk as an ordinary monk?Mostly it is a ghost with a very high level of terror, because of some restrictions, it cannot touch it
