Use your skills to become a god in the infinite game

Chapter 51 Qingshi Town (7)

"You are older than Xie An, but not as calm as him. Do you, a junior, have the right to speak in this situation?"

Guo Yuda's expression froze for a moment, and he cursed in his heart, old man, you still teach me a lesson.

Can Xie An's pretty face not be calm?He was just watching a show there, and he didn't take the opportunity to use his identity to ask for some information. He just wanted to wait for them to ask.

Under the auspices of the clan elder, several big men surrounded the body and carefully lifted it from the four corners.

"one two Three"

The veins appeared when they exerted force on their hands. Strangely, the corpse was only raised half the height of the palm.

Mr. Xie's eyes suddenly opened again. The young man who raised his head shook his hands and was almost frightened to the point of losing his strength. "Clan, clan elder."

"What are you afraid of, your elders!" the Xie clan elder scolded and sighed, "He has a grudge in his heart!"

"According to the rules, the coffin should be suspended for seven days, and the coffin can only be put into the coffin at the right time. Xinxiang, we don't want to carry you out in a hurry. We have no choice now."

The voice of the Xie family elder was old and full of vitality, "All those who wear filial piety, stand up and call him together, let Xinxiang go in peace!"

Jiang Qigang stood over, but someone pushed him to the front next to Xie Chaoci, and the two of them mingled in the crowd of cries and shouts.

It suddenly darkened outside, dark clouds covered the sky, thunder roared, and lightning streaked across the sky.

In less than ten seconds, heavy rain fell like a torrent.

Seven or eight men in short shirts shouted slogans and carried Mr. Xie's body up.

"Master," Butler Yu shouted loudly, tears streaming from his eyes, "Just leave!"

Rumbling--

The rain was carried into the mourning hall by the wind, and the white lantern at the door was almost blown down. The white cloth in the mourning hall floated into the air, and there seemed to be a cry of resentment in the wind.

The paper-tied people and wreaths fell to the ground, and a large piece of the ground beside the threshold was wet. The straw and yellow paper money on the ground were also wet.

The people watching outside the door were all looking for shelter from the rain. Fang Yuan held on to the door frame, his back soaked, and solemnly looked inside to find Jiang Qi.

Butler Yu wiped away tears and ordered the people below to move the candles and long-light lamps back quickly, his voice became hoarse.

Sad cries spread from the mourning hall to outside the courtyard wall, and the rain became heavier and heavier.

Jiang Qi stood beside the coffin, looking at the men carrying the body and the people wearing mourning and crying around him, and a trace of pain that he tried to endure flashed across his expression.

A similar scene. It also rained suddenly at that time, and the mourning hall built with plastic sheets leaked. The wind was too strong, and the water on the ground poured in all at once.

She hurriedly picked up the piles of paper money and candles on the ground and placed them on the stool. She couldn't tell where the rain and tears were on her face.

I stubbornly used my body to block the plastic sheet blown open by the wind, preventing the rain from getting the urn wet. I looked at the people in the black and white photos, as if this could make up for something.

But she knew in her heart that it was too late.

No matter what you do, it's too late, and you can't get back the last time you missed, no matter what, it just makes you feel better.

To this day, Jiang Qi can't forget how he watched his grandmother being pushed into that room at the crematorium.

From then on, she was the only one left in the family.

"Jiang Qi." Xie Chaoci beside him bent his back and stared at her with a pair of dark eyes inquiringly. His voice was very soft, "Are you okay?" Jiang Qi opened his mouth slightly and took a few breaths to calm down. Putting away all the gaffes and emotions on his face, he said calmly, "It's okay."

Master Xie's body was finally carried into the coffin. The men carrying the body breathed a long sigh of relief.

People will gain weight after death, but never to this extent, it seems.
There was something pressing on Mr. Xie, and he didn't want them to carry the body into the coffin.

The men who carried the corpse were all strong and courageous men. This was not the first time they had come to help in a white matter, but they had never encountered such a strange thing.

"Lid the coffin - seal the coffin -"

Following the clan elder's order, the big man lifted the coffin lid and placed it on the coffin while crying.

The coffin was made of fine wood, and the lid alone was very heavy, but they carried it much easier than before.

There are seven nails in total, all of which were prepared yesterday.

This was supposed to be done by the master who looked after the ghost house, but the Xie family only had one day of rest, and they had to seal the coffin at the last minute. The hired master couldn't get to Qingshi Town in time, so the carpenters in the town did the job.

The master carpenter hit the nails with an ax wrapped in red cloth, and muttered something like, "The day will be auspicious, the heaven and earth will be opened, and the coffin will be closed with good luck."

The last nail was driven in, the copper coins were hung, and the carpenter tied the black ink thread, and the coffin was covered with a cloth.

[The main plot has been collected - coffin sealing]

The rain outside is getting lighter, the sky is dark clouds, and raindrops are sparsely falling from the eaves.

The servants of the Xie family began to rearrange the furnishings in the mourning hall. The clan elder stood among the crowd, facing Xie Chaoci and Butler Yu.
"Originally, the coffin was to be raised and buried immediately after the coffin was sealed today, but it is raining so heavily and the roads on the mountain are slippery, so accidents are easy to happen. Let's wait another day. The funeral will be held on time tomorrow morning. Things are in a hurry, so keep it simple."

The relatives nearby and the man who will carry the coffin tomorrow nodded in agreement.

The clan elder said to Butler Yu again, "I'm going to visit the other two houses. I'll leave this place to you and Xie An. Xie An is still young and has little experience in doing things. Please pay more attention."

"Elder of the clan, don't worry, I will arrange things well." Butler Yu said respectfully,

"I bothered you to make this trip today, otherwise we really don't know what to do. After the family affairs are finished, the young master and I will come to express our thanks."

After seeing off the clan elder, Butler Yu gave red envelopes to the man and the carpenter who had just helped, and began to organize the process for tomorrow.

The carpenter first looked up at the mourning hall, then looked at Xie Chaoci, and said seriously, "You have to guard the place tonight. If you can get there, it will be fine. If..."

At this point, he stopped talking and walked out with a sigh, as if he was avoiding something.

Jiang Qi looked at Wang Yue behind him, raised the corners of his lips meaningfully, and then exited the mourning hall without squinting.

Fang Yuan had already arrived outside Xie's mansion and was waiting for Jiang Qi. They didn't communicate the whole time, but Fang Yuan had just guessed what Jiang Qi was going to do next.

"Wang Yue, can you stop them?" Fang Yuan looked behind Jiang Qi,
"No problem for a short period of time." Jiang Qi raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"No one is stupid, doesn't know how to do it, and they don't think about the importance of the carpenter as an NPC. In the past, carpenters were very respected in villages and towns, and they all knew their skills."

Wang Yue only needs to stop him for a while.

"Sister Qi, how are you sure Wang Yue will help us?"

"He is not helping us, he has no choice."

Jiang Qi walked and trotted all the way, catching up with the carpenter's back, "Master, wait a minute."
