snake coffin

Chapter 17
Grandma seemed to have remembered something. I wanted to hold her, but she ran away quickly.

I turned over and got out of bed, trying to catch up, but felt dizzy when I moved. Fortunately, I held on to the door so I didn't fall.

Maybe it was too long to get up after lying down for a long time.

"Snake Granny is out of the coffin... Huilong Village's revenge is coming!" Qin Mipo carried a trash can, pulled out a piece of clothing, threw it in, and set it on fire in the corridor of the hospital.

As soon as the black smoke started to rise, the dead silk snakes still seemed to be trying to crawl out.

Mo Xiu snorted coldly, and then these silk snakes lay in the fire and were slowly burned into carbon.

The black smoke attracted the nurse, and also choked Qin Mipo until she almost died of coughing.

The nurse took water to extinguish the burning trash can, and told us not to burn things randomly, and went back to work.

The hospital in the small town does not have many staff, and there are many and complex patients, so they are also very busy.

"What is a snake woman?" I closed the door and looked at Qin Mipo: "Why is grandma so anxious?"

"I don't know either. May I ask Mr. Snake?" Qin Mipo took out another needle and was sewing the thing seriously. It looked like a pillowcase or something, but it was very plain.

I could only look down at the black snake jade bracelet on my wrist. Both Mo Xiu and Liu Longting seemed to be related to the snake coffin.

Moxiu came out directly this time, sat by the hospital bed, looked at me and said, "The snake lady is probably a kind of coffin guardian spirit, just like those snakes released from the snake coffin. I don't know about the snake coffin. What is it, Liu Longting is actually just a coffin snake used by the Long family to bury the daughter of the Long family."

"It's not Liu Longting who is leading the snake coffin, but the daughter of the Long family." Mo Xiu said so far.

He looked at me worriedly: "Since the snake coffin refused Long Xia to enter the coffin and turned her into a snake woman, the snake coffin will still chase you, not to mention Liu Longting, just be careful yourself, don't worry about Hui Long Those people in the village.”

"Since there is a daughter from the Long family leading the snake coffin, why did you put Liu Longting in the snake coffin?" I feel that this matter is a bit beyond imagination, and it is obviously different from what Tang Bo said?

"If a snake is coiled in a coffin, your descendants will be prosperous. If there are snakes for generations, there will be prosperity for generations." Qin Mi Po sneered and turned to look at me: "Didn't you find anything wrong with your village?"

"What's wrong?" I couldn't think clearly for a moment.

"Most of the people in Huilong Village are working outside, and they are either powerful or wealthy. But in every household, if there are no old people left to stay, the older generation will come back to guard the village." Qin Mipo looked at me. .

He said in a deep voice: "This is called taking advantage of someone's power. You are taking advantage of the snake coffin, and what you are getting in return is giving the snake coffin a daughter of the Long family every 18 years."

I was sweating coldly as I listened and looked at Qin Mipo: "Then what will happen if the daughter of the Long family is not buried?"

"How do I know." Qin Mipo blinked, and looked at Mo Xiu mockingly: "Snake Lord, tell me?"

"If my guess is correct, Snake Coffin is already taking revenge. Your cousin has cancer, and your family members who are developing outside are afraid that something is wrong." Qin Mi Po seemed very sure.

He sneered and said: "People are unable to afford early benefits. Once things go wrong, they will look for problems from their ancestral graves and luck. They never think about whether they are doing the right thing. How can there be good luck if you lose your conscience? .”

"What will happen if the snake lady comes out of the coffin?" I thought about my grandma who returned to the village, but I still felt uneasy.

Qin Mi Po is not from Huilong Village, so she doesn’t know what Snake Po will do.

I turned to look at Mo Xiu, and he also shook his head.

Thinking of Long Xia's weird look and how angry my dad was the night he left, the village must have put a lot of pressure on my dad.

I thought about it, but still felt uneasy, so I called my grandma.

"Long Ling, your Seventh Tang Uncle just happened to buy things for the funeral. I'll take his car back. You stay in the hospital well. If you're hungry, ask Qin Mipo to order takeaway for you." Grandma said neatly at the other end.

Who is my Seventh Tang Uncle? I don't even know who it is, but why did I meet him just after leaving the hospital?

But he hurriedly said to his grandma: "I'm in so much pain, please come back quickly."

Grandma wanted to say something else, but she seemed to say "Huh".

Then came a deep voice: "Long Ling, I am your seventh uncle."

"Don't remember? It was the one that your dad introduced to run a travel company during the Chinese New Year. Your dad also said that after you finished your college entrance examination, he would ask me to sign up for a tour group and return your family to travel." The male voice was very hearty.

But his voice was deep: "There is a funeral in the village today, and your parents are not here. You should come back to show your filial piety."

I gripped the phone tightly: "Where's my grandma?"

"Oh, Second Aunt, it will be fine. After all, your cousin just asked a few aunts from the same village to chat with her that night. I just took some medicine this time, and she fainted." Uncle Qitang said in a loud voice. cold.

Shen Sheng said: "However, there was a snake disaster in the village this time, and several people died. Your grandma fell into the water at such an age, or was bitten to death by a snake, or committed suicide due to the stimulation. Follow along, and we will I no longer know."

I heard the anger bursting from the bottom of my heart: "Long Xia is back, you should have seen it. She has become a snake woman. My grandma is going back to remind your village that there is going to be a catastrophe."

Uncle Qitang chuckled: "Long Xia fell into the snake coffin, how could she come back? What does the snake woman have to be afraid of? We are not afraid of snake coffins. If you don't come back, there will be a funeral today anyway. There are several coffins. Which coffin is there?" There are many corpses, who knows.”

After speaking, he hung up the phone.

I listened to the "beep" sound on the other end and called again, but the phone was already turned off.

"The whole people in Huilong Village are taking advantage of the snake coffin. They think that the reason why they can get rich and prosperous outside is because of the snake coffin." Qin Mipo was still sewing, smoothing the needle in her hair.

Mo Xiu also sneered and said: "You were not buried in the coffin 18 years ago, but they shared the gold and silver treasures in that coffin, so forget it. There must be many people who are having a bad life now, and they must be thinking that it was you who didn't." The reason for being buried in the snake coffin."

"It just so happens that you are burying a snake coffin for the second time this year, and your cousin is the one who caused these things again. You will definitely be forced to go back." Mo Xiu's voice gradually became cold.

I was also feeling cold and wanted to call my parents, but they were obviously avoiding me and I couldn't get through.

She had to change her shoes and prepare to go back to the village. Qin Mipo sighed deeply: "Just save your grandma, don't even try to save the villagers."

She handed me the sewed cloth bag: "For rice."

Only then did I realize that it was a cloth bag, hung around the neck, with pockets at both ends, and was about to hang down on the chest, so it was easy to grab rice from it.

Qin Mipo took out a bag of rice from the bedside table again: "I asked someone to bring it from my house, mixed with incense ash."

I put the rice into the cloth and looked at Mrs. Qin. I wanted to say something, but I swallowed it again.

"I'm not welcome in Huilong Village, and I don't want to save those heartless people." Qin Mi Po thought for a while and got out of bed: "But I can ask someone to pick you up outside the village."

I filled the bag with rice, looked at her and said, "Is there anything else to prevent snakes?"

"No matter how poisonous a snake is, it can't poison people's hearts? With Snake Lord around, what you have to guard against is not snakes, but people." Qin Mipo snorted coldly and looked at Mo Xiu: "Snake Lord has a deep understanding of this, right?"

Mo Xiu lowered his eyes and just looked at me and said: "You will not be able to survive for your own troubles. You can only save them once, not the second time. It is also impossible for them to return to Longcun and prosper forever!"

Mo Xiu's meaning was very clear, he would not help anymore.

I looked at him and thought about Liu Longting's mention of Mo Xiu's death.

And the flashing scene when Mo Xiu pulled me back to save the villagers.

Perhaps Moxiu's last death was related to the rescue of the people in Longcun.

I filled both ends of the bag with rice, left the hospital, and prepared to take a taxi back.

As soon as I got out of the hospital, a black car stopped beside me. The driver was a familiar face. He had buried dead pigs at my house and also went to Qin Mi's house.

It was also this person who was by the grave and told me to go back and see my cousin.

He pushed open the car door, looked at me with a sullen face, "Long Ling, get in the car."

I didn't expect that the village thought about everything, and even sent a car here to wait for me. Even if grandma didn't want to go back to the village, she would find a way to tie grandma.

After getting into the car, the man drove the car: "Lao Qi wants to arrange someone to wait for you at the gate of the hospital, so I'll come."

Now I don't have any good impressions of the people in Huilong Village, so I just said "hmm".

The man drove the car and said a little sadly: "When you return to the village this time, they..."

"They will bury me again." I already knew this, so I had nothing to say.

People in the village don't remember that I ran away that night, but I went back to save them because I heard their screams.

All they thought was that I should have been buried in the snake coffin in exchange for their wealth and power, and I would reap it from generation to generation!
The driver looked at me, shame flashed across his face, but he just drove silently. After all, he is also from Huilong Village...

I was thinking about how to escape if I found my grandma, and how to suppress all the people in the village.

Because there was a funeral, Niu Er helped inside and did not stay at the entrance of the village. The car drove directly in.

When the car arrived on the village road, we saw white flags hanging all the way, and a coffin parked every other section.

But it wasn't a rooster that pressed the coffin, but dead snakes, drooping on the coffin like a colorful coffin blanket.
