My master is the coffin

Chapter 457 Buying a Coffin
I lay on the ground for a long time.The people around gradually dispersed.

I turned my head and saw that only Chang'e was with me here.But with her here, it is even more impossible for Wushuang to forgive me.

I want to drive her away, but I don't know how to say it.Simply, I lie on my stomach with my head down and pretend to be dead.

I lay down on the ground and pretended to be dead, but I could clearly hear the conversations of several people not far away.

I heard Ksitigarbha say: "Wushuang, quickly take out Mrs. Zhang's soul, we have something important to ask her."

Wushuang was quite respectful to Ksitigarbha, but his tone was a little absent-minded.She asked, "Looking for my mother? What's the matter?"

Ksitigarbha said, "She may know the whereabouts of the sword."

Wushuang was silent for a while, and then said: "I don't want to get involved in the matter of that sword. I'm going to take my parents to the underworld, so don't bother us anymore."

The Ksitigarbha King said eagerly: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. Mrs. Zhang knows the news. Even if she doesn't want to look for it, the rest of the people will not give up."

Wushuang said: "The rest? Who else? Evil thoughts? As long as you keep your mouth shut, no one will know that my mother knows the whereabouts of the sword."

Then, I heard a flurry of footsteps over there.Ten minutes later, it was quiet here.

I sat up from the ground and saw that Wushuang had already left.Only the Ksitigarbha King was left, standing there dejectedly.

The ghost envoy slowly came over and complained to me: "Xu You, what's the matter with you? Wu Shuang was leaving just now, why didn't you come and stay?"

I shook my head: "Wu Shuang hates me so much, how can I keep her? I'm afraid she will walk faster when I show up."

The ghost messenger nodded and said, "You are right." Then he immediately changed the direction of the wind and said, "Since you know that Wu Shuang wants to leave when he sees you, why don't you stay away?"

I waved my hand: "Stop teasing me here, I'm in a bad mood."

I stood up without even patting the dirt off my body.I walked up to Ksitigarbha King and asked, "What should I do?"

Ksitigarbha thought for a while and said: "Actually, what Wushuang said is also reasonable. Only a few of us in the world know the whereabouts of the mahogany sword. As long as we don't tell, no one should trouble Wushuang."

I smiled wryly: "Evil Nian really doesn't know that Mrs. Zhang is the key to finding Taomujian. But he thinks I know. If this is the case, will I have no peace anymore?"

Ksitigarbha thought for a while and said, "If you don't get rid of evil thoughts, it will always be a great disaster. However, we have to find a way to get rid of him."

I saw Ksitigarbha standing on the ground and thinking for a while, then turned around, raised his voice an octave, and said angrily, "If we and I join forces, we can definitely take down the evil thoughts in one fell swoop."

Seeing Ksitigarbha's expression, I couldn't help feeling a little nervous, so I could only agree, "Yes, I think so too."

Ksitigarbha said loudly again: "If you hadn't let go of your evil thoughts, how could things have turned out like this?"

I suddenly saw the kind-browed and kind-hearted Tibetan King Bodhisattva in this state, and I couldn't help being surprised: "What's wrong with you?"

Ksitigarbha suddenly reached out and punched me.The punch wasn't too hard, but it still made me stagger.He said angrily: "I can't think of a way. You can fend for yourself."

I was wondering when I saw Ksitigarbha mouthing and saying, "Someone is watching us."

Before I could react, I heard Ksitigarbha say loudly: "No one can get that mahogany sword anyway. We don't want to worry about it. Let's leave it alone."

Then, he strode away with the ghost envoy and the abbot.

Chang'e was always standing by my side, she looked at me worriedly: "Houyi, what happened to Ksitigarbha?"

I touched my chest, and there was something stuffed in there.I didn't take it out, but just waved my hand: "That old man in the village, where is his family?"

Chang'e looked at me in surprise, but she still said, "It's the third house, the one with the red gate."

I nodded, waved my hand and said, "Take me there."

The two of us didn't talk much, and went straight to the old man's house.I didn't knock on the door, just walked in.

It was quiet in the yard, and it was also quiet inside the house. I closed my eyes and felt it carefully.Then lifted the sheet.

The old man was lying under the bed, shivering.

I frowned and said, "Old man, what are you doing?"

The old man trembled and said, "You...are you finished?"

I nodded: "It's over, don't worry, from now on, nothing will happen in your village. There will be no more harassing corpses."

The old man looked at me tremblingly, his eyes seemed to say: "Yeah, I drove away a big devil, and another one came. I dare not mess with you people."

I dragged the old man out from under the bed and said, "Get us something to eat."

The old man said tremblingly: "Food...then what, I'll go to the small store at the entrance of the village to buy some."

I looked at him with a smile: "You want to run?"

The old man waved his hands again and again: "Don't dare. There is a fairy living in my house, and the glory is too late. How dare I run away?"

I said to Chang'e, "You go shopping with him."

Chang'e nodded and agreed.

After the two of them walked out of the gate, I took the thing out of my arms.It's a crumpled ball of paper.Some words were scrawled on it.

I looked at it, and the corner of my mouth couldn't help showing a smile.

At this moment, the door was dark, and Chang'e and the old man came back.I saw that they were carrying a lot of food, so I called Chang'e to eat together.

After I was full, seeing the old man seemed a little uneasy.So he walked over, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Grandpa, don't be so afraid, we are not bad people. I know the little demon judge in the underworld, and I will ask them to help you find out how much life you have left."

Hearing this, the old man trembled even more.

I sighed, and asked lazily, "Is there a coffin shop, paper-making shop, etc. in your village?"

The old man shook his head.

I asked again: "You dead people, where can you buy a coffin?"

The old man thought for a while and said, "Go to the town and be cremated in the crematorium."

I stared: "Fart. If you are willing to cremate, where did those corpses come from two days ago?"

The old man laughed dryly and said, "Some were honest and cremated obediently, and some were not so honest, so they left the corpses behind. As for coffins, they are hard to buy. They are only available in the town."

I got a headache, thought for a while and said, "Can you take me to the town?"

The old man looked at the sky: "Now? It's almost dark, can we go tomorrow?"

I shook my head and said, "I'm going to die tonight, you want me to go another day? Will you carry my dead body tomorrow?"

The old man was frightened by my words: "What do you mean? Why are you dying tonight?"

Chang'e also looked at me strangely.I waved at her: "Don't worry, everything is under control."

Chang'e didn't know what she thought of, her eyes dimmed for a while, and she said silently, "I'm going to die tonight? After I die, do I want my soul to return to the underworld?"

I thought about it, but there was really no way to explain it, so I had no choice but to ignore it and followed the old man out.

The old man pointed to the tractor in the yard: "Young man, can you shake the tractor away for me? I'm old and I can't use it."

I sighed and helped him shake the tractor away.Then we headed to town in this broken tractor.

In fact, according to our speed, there is no need to drive a tractor.It's just that it will be necessary to transport the coffin back later.

The old man looked at the tractor tremblingly, and Chang'e looked at me inexplicably.I insisted on urging the old man to rush to the town.

After a bumpy journey, I finally came to the front of the coffin shop.This is a curtain facing the street.There are cement urns outside.This kind of urn is not small, and the height can reach a person's calf.

When I saw this coffin shop, I breathed a sigh of relief, because this coffin shop is very commercial.It will not be like the family in Taiyuan, which is full of evil spirits everywhere.

The old man walked to the gate and started knocking on the door.A tired voice inside said: "It's getting dark, no business, come back tomorrow."

I shouted loudly: "Please open the door, we are in a hurry to buy a coffin."
