A Sword Through the Nine Heavens

Chapter 574: Chen 2zhuang

  Chen Erzhuang's shop is in the most remote alley in the village. The alley was deserted. No one had walked by for a long time. Only a few yellow leaves fluttered and landed on the ground.

   The stone road on the ground was smoothed, and it looked like some years ago, the stone cracks were still covered with grass, and there was grass on a road, indicating that few people stepped here.

   There was a quietness in the whole alley.

   People who often deal with dead people usually stay away. After all, villagers feel that the dead people have grievances and do not want to be contaminated. Everyone will not go to other people's coffin shops if they are fine.

  But Chen Erzhuang is the only one in a few small villages nearby who is doing a casual business. Whoever has an old man who has risen to the age of 100 or someone who died unexpectedly will go to Chen Erzhuang.

  If you find Lao Xutou, Chen Erzhuang usually seldom talks with people. She stays in her shop all day, and sometimes you will not see him for a few days.

   Muyu stood in front of Chen Erzhuang's shop, his shop didn't even have a sign. No sign is needed to think about it. Everyone knows what business he is doing. Besides, there is a shop in his alley in this alley. It is not difficult to find.

  Chen Erzhuang's store has a mighty statue of Zhong Kui, which was made of paper. Old Xu Tou also specially praised his paper-handling skills, and the paper people he brought out were vivid and very realistic.

   This Zhong Kui is very tall, about five meters, the tiger's eyes wide open, glaring at the outsiders, as if it can make the evil demon all avoid. A mahogany sword is extremely sharp in his hand, and the villain has no mercy in the world.

   The paint color on the wooden door has come off, it seems that it has been a long time, and it is very badly worn.

Muyu walked in, the light in the store was very dark, and it was clearly daytime, but I always felt that the sun could not shine in. There was a mild musty smell in the store, and the smell of incense candle tribute, no one would like this local.

Next to    is a wooden shelf on which piles of bundles of paper money are stacked, and various incenses are stacked at the top, some of which are even thicker than the thumb. On the other shelf were white candles and piles of yellow runes. I didn't know what to do.

There are four or five coffins behind the shelf. The lid of the coffin is half open. The smell of wood is very strong, just like it was just cut off. Many people may not like the smell of wood, but Muyu really likes them.

   Some of these coffins are made of fir, and some are nanmu. There are several beds next to the coffin, and a few people are lying on it!

   "Don't you be dead?"

  I don't know why, obviously I am a self-cultivator with a distracting spirit. My soul is shocked, and no one can hurt myself, but Muyu still feels a bit creepy when he sees this.

   Normally he wouldn’t be scared if he saw the dead, but when he saw the dead in such a strange place, he always felt a pimple in his heart, thinking that he walked over, and the dead suddenly sat up. That feeling is definitely unforgettable for life.

   But Muyu soon discovered that it was not a dead person, but a man made of wood, because he felt the breath of camphor wood. These wooden men wore very new and gorgeous blue clothes, and he suddenly understood what they were.

  Shroud.

I have to say that these wooden people are quite realistic. They are tall, fat, and thin. They are similar in shape to people. They even have eyebrows and hair. They are even colored, and if they are not colored, Muyu It can even be treated as a real person.

  The wooden man is wearing a shroud, I am afraid it is for display. It's just that this scenario is too weird, and Muyu is sure that she doesn't like it.

   "Tell me the details of the deceased."

   At this moment, a low, hoarse voice suddenly appeared behind Mu Yu, Mu Yu struck a spirit, but he was a self-cultivator of split-phase, he didn't find anyone behind him!

   Muyu turned around, frowning and looking at the person in front of her. When he entered the store just now, he didn't feel that there was a living person in the store. This guy seemed to appear out of nowhere, which surprised him.

   "Your name is Chen Erzhuang, right? Excuse me."

Muyu looked at Chen Erzhuang for a while. He had vitality flowing in him. I don’t know if he was dealing with the dead all the year round. The vitality did not look very strong, but it was certain that he was a living person, and Muyu didn’t follow him. He felt the fluctuation of spiritual power.

   "Tell me in detail about the situation of the deceased. Is there a burial or a celestial burial?" Chen Erzhuang's face was blocked by shadows, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

   Heavenly burial is to be buried in a burial valley. This is a name for a nearby village.

   "Dare you dare to be buried in the sky after that happened?" Mu Yu asked curiously.

  The old man Zhao's corpse scared the honest villagers, and listening to the old Xu Tou said that the nearby villages would not dare to carry their relatives to the Valley of Burial.

  Although in their conception, the Burial Valley is a crack leading to the afterlife, but since the corpse incident, everyone is worried that they will also be brought in, so they would rather bury their loved ones and let them find their way to the underworld.

   "Only if you choose to do it or not, not if I dare to do it."

  Chen Erzhuang's voice is very calm, so peaceful that it makes people feel unbelievable, as if the old man Zhao's corpse incident has not left a shadow in his heart.

   Muyu looked up and glanced, and suddenly his eyes were startled. He actually saw a coffin hanging in midair under the dark beams of the shop!

   this sentence coffin

Although the wood is made of wood, Muyu didn't feel the breath of wood from it.

   He has long been able to control anything made of wood out of thin air, let them take root or forcefully change shape. But he couldn't control the coffin on the beam, which made him feel weird.

   The strangest thing is, why hang the coffin on the beam of the store?

   "That coffin is a bit interesting."

   Muyu pointed to the coffin under the room beam. His consciousness went out, and all disappeared like a stone sinking into the sea. There was no fluctuation in life and no special breath. It seemed to be an empty coffin.

   "You didn't come to do business, you don't have the smell of dead people, but there is the smell of death." Chen Erzhuang finished speaking, then turned slowly and walked towards the back of the store.

   "The taste of the dead? The taste of death?" Mu Yu froze for a moment, he had the death air of the turfgrass on his body, but it was the purest death air in the world. Can this be noticed by Chen Erzhuang?

  Chen Erzhuang is probably not a mortal?

   "Wait, I have something to ask you." Mu Yu blinked and stopped in front of Chen Erzhuang.

  Chen Erzhuang saw Mu Yu suddenly appearing in front of his eyes, but was not surprised, and did not even move.

   "You are a self-cultivator." Chen Erzhuang said.

   "Yes, I came to you to investigate what happened to Grandpa Zhao when he died."

   Muyu found that he couldn't see through Chen Erzhuang. There was no spiritual fluctuation in the opponent's body. It was a mortal. But mortals generally call the Cultivators the awe-inspiring masters in awe, and they also behave with fear and sincerity, but Chen Erzhuang did not do so.

   "Lady Zhao's descendants are not filial, so take them all away, that's it." Chen Erzhuang said simply.

   Muyu suddenly reached out and put it on Chen Erzhuang, the spiritual power of his body immediately poured in, frowning: "Why are you not cursed?"

  Chen Erzhuang still did not move when Mu Yu stretched out his hand. He didn’t worry about what Mu Yu did to him: "I have been in contact with the dead all the year round, and naturally I will not be cursed by the dead."

   Muyu withdraws his hand. Chen Erzhuang is a living person. There is no doubt that Muyu's spiritual power cannot be imported into the other party, indicating that the other party is not a self-cultivator.

   This is very strange. Chen Erzhuang's calm performance is very abnormal. It is impossible for a mortal to be so calm when facing the innocent, but Chen Erzhuang has not even breathed.

   "You are not here to do business, then please come back! I only do dead business here." Chen Erzhuang did not look at Muyu, but bypassed Muyu and continued to walk behind the store.

   Muyu looked at Chen Erzhuang's back and glanced at the coffin hung on the beam of the room. This time, he said nothing more, but chose to leave this eerie place directly.

  ——

   "Xiaoshuai, did you find anything wrong just now?" Muyu didn't leave too far, but stopped under a tree outside the village.

   Xiaoshuai flicked his tail and said, "Is it all weird everywhere? How can a living person live in such a gloomy place?"

Mu Yu didn't find anything unusual about Chen Erzhuang. If it had to be said, it was that Chen Erzhuang didn't have an insidious array like other villagers, and when he faced him, it seemed as if nothing had happened. , This is obviously not in line with common sense.

   "Why didn't you use God Soulwood to directly control him, just ask him what secrets are hidden in him?" Long Teng's suggestion was very simple and rough.

   "Soul Soulwood is very harmful to people, do you have some common sense about big earthworms!" Xiaoshuai said.

   Shenhunmu was originally used to invade the nerves of prey to control the prey. If it acts on people at will, it is naturally harmful, especially for mortals who do not practice. Mu Yu hasn't figured out Chen Erzhuang's situation yet, so he doesn't want to deal with him.

Mu Yu shook his head: "I don't think it's that simple. Although the hanging coffin looks like nothing, it's really wrong. Who hanged the coffin on the beam of the house? And since I walked into Chen Erzhuang's shop After going here, I feel that there is a pair of eyes watching me in the dark~www.readwn.com~ This feeling does not come from Chen Erzhuang, but from a certain corner in the dark. If someone is behind Chen Er Zhuang’s words, just in case, I can’t fight the snake.”

   If the feeling of being watched is absent, Muyu can't find the source of that feeling with the divine period of cultivation, then it is very likely that the mysterious guy behind is not weaker than Muyu.

   "Are you saying that it is possible to lay a dead person in that coffin?" Xiaoshuai asked curiously.

   "Would you like to visit alone at night?" said Long Teng.

   Xiaoshuai waved his hand: "No, I don't like the gloomy place. Why can't we eat the barbecue in the sun and have to deal with the dead?"

Mu Yu didn't like Chen Erzhuang's shop, but what he was more concerned about was that he felt that there was a lot of wood in Chen Erzhuang's backyard. These woods were newly cut, but they were not made of coffins. It is the same as the wooden man wearing shrouds in the store, and it is all camphor wood.

   I have never heard of making camphors with camphor wood, but there are wooden people in the shop of Chen Erzhuang. If all of these camphor trees are used as wooden people, why is Chen Erzhuang making so many wooden people?

   There are paper-cutters in the workshop as burial servants of the underworld, but I have never heard of a wooden man coming

Funerary.

   "Chen Erzhuang must have a problem! Let's see if he can find the mysterious guy that Old Xu Tou said." Mu Yu was lost in thought.
