My master is the coffin

Chapter 10 The House of Yin and Yang

The abbot and I walked in front, and Granny Chen walked behind with a kitchen knife.The abbot glanced back and said to me in a low voice: "Did you see that? Mrs. Chen is worried about the two of us. If something goes wrong later, we will be cut off. Xu You, you have made me miserable." gone."

I said dissatisfied: "You have deceived me so hard, I haven't settled with you yet. Let me tell you, if I get copper coins and die, don't think about it."

The abbot trembled visibly, and his face was about to cry: "You worldly people are really too cruel."

I sighed: "Abbot, if the dream is true and we dig out the dead body, then nothing will happen. If it is not dug up, don't wait for the copper coins to die, the old lady has to put the dead body on the spot. We both cut it off."

Along the way, I sighed with my abbot, and only hoped that the dream last night was true.

Taking into account the need to dig up the corpse, but also to transport the corpse.As the abbot of the Dasheng Temple, the abbot licked his face and borrowed things from the surrounding residents.

Fortunately, this is already a suburb, and there are a few basic tools.We found five or six companies, and finally borrowed two shovels and a rickshaw.

I rode in front, the abbot pushed the cart behind, and Mrs. Chen sat on the cart with a kitchen knife in her hand, supervising the two of us.

After a while, the abbot couldn't take it anymore, and discussed with Mrs. Chen: "Old lady, can we put away the knife? A young man, a monk, and an old lady with a knife are really eye-catching. I'll return the knife later." To transport the corpse, if something goes wrong on the way, the corpse cannot reach the Great Sage Temple, and your son will not be reincarnated."

As long as she talked about her son, Chen Po was still very reasonable. After thinking about it, she hid the kitchen knife.

It was only just after noon when we reached the path.The sun is overhead, and cars are walking on the road not far away.Everything is fairly safe.

As the coffin instructed, I lit a candle.Then, holding it up, I started walking on the path one after another.

The flame of the candle flickered brightly.My heart is restless with the flames.After walking around, the candle was still alive, and my heart began to pick up.

The old lady stood behind me, her voice suddenly serious: "What's going on? Where's the corpse?"

I looked at the kitchen knife in her hand, and my heart suddenly trembled, and a thought that made me afraid rose from the bottom of my heart: "It seems that there are no dead bodies here. Instead of letting the old lady hack me to death, it is better to strike first For strength, take her knife..."

The abbot thought quickly and reminded me: "Inside the woods, inside the woods."

I smiled wryly in my heart: "How can there be a forest here? It's just that there are a few trees on the side of the road." However, a dead horse is a living horse doctor, so I still hold a candle and sneak into it.

After walking past those big trees, the candle didn't change in any way. I was just about to turn around and come back when suddenly, the fire flickered, and the lamp was as small as a bean, and it looked like it was about to go out.

I was overjoyed, and when I looked carefully again, the flames were back to normal.It's just that it's still not as vigorous as it was burning on the path just now.

I held a candle, like a sapper with a detector looking for landmines.I searched carefully among these trees several times.

Finally, when I came to a tree, the candle went out with a pop.

I took out a match to light the candle, and tried again, but this time the match would not strike at all.

I was overjoyed, it seemed that the coffin did not lie to me.I kept shouting, "Here, here."

The abbot rushed over with a shovel on his shoulder.The two of us dug here for a full hour, shoveling and shoveling.

As the pit was dug deeper and deeper, the soil gradually turned red, as if it had been soaked in blood and never subsided.

The abbot said excitedly: "I know this. The soil is mixed with cinnabar. There must be something evil buried here. It seems that the corpse must be here."

Sure enough, a few minutes later, we saw a dead body.The corpse's clothes had rotted away.But the body is still well preserved.There was no sign of decay at all, and there was indeed a mahogany sword stuck in his chest.

Seeing this corpse, I don't know why, but I feel very familiar. In the back of my mind, I seem to have seen him before.

I patted my head, stood by the edge of the pit and thought hard, carefully checked the people I knew since I could remember, but I still couldn't remember where this familiar feeling came from.

Seeing me standing there in a daze, the abbot couldn't help urging me, "What's the matter? Get me back quickly? Why are you in a daze? Don't you know that there are many dreams in the night?"

I nodded: "You are right, let's take this man back quickly."

Just as the two of us were about to make a move, suddenly the clouds merged and the surrounding area became dark.

The abbot said tremblingly, "Xu You, I don't think this day is right. Maybe we are about to be struck by lightning."

I looked up at the sky and said nervously: "It's not that serious, it's just cloudy, don't think so much..."

As soon as I finished saying this, it suddenly started to rain.The rain was in a hurry, and it turned into a torrential rain in an instant...

The cinnabar soil on the ground was washed by the water, flowing around like red blood, soaking the corpse in it.

The abbot pushed me: "It's not too late, let's quickly lift the body out, load it into the truck and take it away, and then go back and take a shower. This matter has nothing to do with us."

I nodded, and walked slowly into the pit with the abbot alone.The two of us, one with his shoulders and the other with his legs, walked up slowly.

There is a saying called dead sink dead sink.It means that people become very heavy after death.Today, the abbot and I have experienced it.The pit wasn't deep, but we couldn't lift it up if we slipped step by step.

Grandma Chen stood on the shore, looked at the two of us, was anxious, mumbling in her mouth, calling us two young and strong, and we couldn't even lift ourselves.

The abbot was so suppressed that his face was flushed red, and he had to say a few words to Chen Po from time to time.

When we were carrying the corpses in a mess, suddenly, a gust of wind blew over, wrapping the three of us in the middle.

I shivered, and instinctively felt that the air around me was strange.

I shouted nervously, "Abbot, are you alright?"

The abbot was not much better, and said tremblingly, "I'm fine. Xu You, there's something wrong with this gust of wind. It's blowing my mind."

The two of us were talking here when we suddenly heard a howl from above our heads: "Put the body down for me."

I shuddered and almost let go.

I subconsciously glanced up, and Granny Chen's eyes were red, and she was staring at the two of us viciously.

The abbot boldly asked: "Old lady, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Po didn't answer, and suddenly pulled out a kitchen knife from behind.

I also became nervous, and stammered: "Old lady, if you have something to say, let's not use the knife."

Before I could say this, Grandma Chen jumped up and slashed at me.

Whether it's this jump, or swinging a knife in mid-air.They are extremely agile and extremely fierce.It's definitely not something an old lady can do.

Between life and death, I can be considered to have a relatively quick reaction. I lay down in the mud and managed to avoid the knife, and then called to the abbot: "It must be a ghost, run quickly."

Using both hands and feet, we crawled out of the pit.Grabbing the sparse big trees next to him, he circled around and started to escape.

But Mrs. Chen always showed her naked face and chased after him relentlessly.

The two of us ran for a while, and suddenly the abbot said, "No, the body will be buried."

As I ran away, I glanced back, didn’t I, the corpse was lying in the mud, and the heavy rain was washing the surrounding mud, covering him little by little.

I'm anxious, if I don't transport this dead man back today, how will I survive?
Thinking of this, I didn't run away anymore, I turned around suddenly, and stared at Granny Chen who rushed up with a knife: "You are paralyzed, and you hurt me again and again. Today I will kill you first."

I was desperate to be slashed by her, and I also kicked her down.However, before I could do anything, Grandma Chen glanced at me, suddenly rolled her eyes, and fainted to the ground.

The abbot was overjoyed and praised: "Ghosts are afraid of evil people, Xu You, you scare away the little ghost on Granny Chen."

I spit on Granny Chen angrily, and then greeted the abbot: "Let's carry on."

After some tossing just now, the dead body has been completely covered by muddy water.

At this time, the muddy water was mixed with rainwater, like a pot of porridge.Too thin to scoop with a spade, too thick to scoop with a spade.

After discussing with the abbot for a while, Qi Shushua stretched out his hand, groped in the mud, and then firmly grasped the dead body.

The abbot asked me, "Are you ready?"

I said, "Okay."

The abbot shouted: "One, two, three. Come on..."

The two of us worked hard at the same time, intending to pull the dead body up.But as soon as the dead body emerged from the mud, the abbot yelled at me angrily: "Let go, Xu You let go quickly."

Before I understood what was going on, I suddenly felt a loosening of my right hand.

Then, I saw the body sinking slowly, and I held a mahogany sword in my right hand.

Just now, I pulled the peach wood sword to pull the corpse up.I, without knowing it, pulled the mahogany sword out of the corpse.

I recalled Master Coffin's words: "Never touch the mahogany sword on the corpse."

I shuddered all over my body, waving the mahogany sword, trying to insert it back into the corpse.

However, a large splash of water suddenly rose from the pit, and something came out.

The muddy water hit my face and into my eyes.I couldn't keep my eyes open at all.

Then, I felt someone grabbing my arm and dragging me. I couldn't help but staggered and ran after him.

When I finally opened my eyes, I saw the abbot standing beside me panting.

I asked him, "Why are you dragging me?"

The abbot pointed to the front: "Look for yourself."

At this time, I looked back and couldn't close my mouth anymore. That scene is unforgettable for the rest of my life.
