Niu Er immediately started to scold: "You man, don't be ungrateful. The immortal is a celestial being who came down to earth, and he personally helped your mother to transcend. I don't know how many lifetimes your Shi family has cultivated for blessings. How dare you say that the immortal deceived you?!"

"That's right!" The villagers echoed one after another.

The reason for cremation is to completely cut off Shi Da Xiong's thoughts.

Otherwise, it is very likely that he will sleepwalk again in the future and dig out his mother, which may be endless.

Zhang Tian stopped everyone from scolding and said, "Come in, I'll show you your mother's ghost."

"Ah?! Is there really a ghost?"

Everyone was shocked.

The so-called ghost stories in the past were all rumors, and no one had ever seen them.

Now that Zhang Tian, ​​the "immortal", personally demonstrated it, everyone was more surprised than afraid.

Zhang Tian, ​​Shi Da Xiong, Xu Wen, Niu Er and others entered the house, and the other villagers blocked the door and stretched their necks to look inside.

"Your mother's soul is trapped in the corpse and cannot be reincarnated. If you don't agree, it will only harm your mother."

As he said this, Zhang Tian raised his hand slightly, and the smart bracelet cast a holographic projection.

A translucent figure appeared on Old Lady Shi's body, almost exactly like Old Lady Shi.

His expression seemed to be very painful, and he was struggling desperately to get out of the corpse, and his mouth was still roaring silently.

It seemed to be saying: Let me out, let me go, let me out...

At this moment, a gloomy music sounded faintly, as if it came from underground and drilled into people's ears.

Everyone's eyes almost popped out, and they were so scared that they almost dared not move.

If they hadn't trusted Zhang Tian, ​​the "immortal", very much, they would have scattered and fled quickly.

Shi Da Xiong was frightened at first, then he knelt on the ground and cried, "Mother... I am a bad child. I can't get a wife, and you are worried. Now I have caused you to not be reincarnated. I am a bad child..."

Shi cried loudly for a while, and finally recovered.

He turned around and kowtowed to Zhang Tian solemnly, saying: "Please help my mother reincarnate. I, Shi Da Xiong, will work like a cow and a horse in the next life to repay you."

"Well, then carry your mother out."

At first, the villagers didn't dare to carry her, but Xu Wen took the initiative to volunteer: "I will do it. Helping people reincarnate is a great thing to accumulate good karma."

"If you don't want this merit, then let me get it. Captain Niu, come and help."

After Xu Wen said this, the villagers "suddenly realized" and came to help.

Not long after, a pile of firewood was built in the open space outside the ancestral hall of Shijia Village.

Hearing that the immortal was going to personally perform a ritual to liberate the dead zombies, the onlookers outside the village could no longer hold back and crowded in.

Suddenly, the fields outside the ancestral hall were surrounded by three layers of fences.

Fortunately, it was already autumn harvest time, so there was no need to worry about trampling crops.

An elder in the village said solemnly to the fire: "Mrs. Shi, you love your son so much that your soul is still here and you cannot reincarnate. Now that the immortal is merciful and loves the people, he will personally perform a ritual to liberate the dead. This is the blessing of the Shi family..."

At this point, Zhang Tian had no choice but to stand solemnly near the fire.

As the elder finished his oath, he gave an order: "Blessings, farewell!"

"Huh..."

The firewood pile quickly caught fire and submerged Mrs. Shi's body.

Shi Daxiong knelt on the ground in agony.

Right here, a sacred and solemn music slowly sounded:

"Namo Amitabha, Dotagata, Dodiyata, Amitabha, Amitabha..."

It seemed that countless Buddhas were chanting scriptures to help people transcend.

The villagers around were infected by this music and knelt on the ground one after another, with sad expressions, feeling that they were baptized.

This is the music of "Rebirth Mantra" made by later generations.

Not only temples play this kind of music during rituals, but people also listen to this kind of music at ordinary times. The music library in the supply ship has it.

At this moment, Zhang Tian naturally played it through the speaker of the space suit.

With the music, golden lotuses kept emerging on the ground, looming, rising with the sound of chanting, and disappearing with the sound of chanting.

There were some petals in the air, which kept appearing from the air, slowly descending, and merging with the golden lotus on the ground.

With the sound of chanting, illusions appeared and disappeared, and Zhang Tian's three-meter radius seemed like a sacred place.

Shi Daxiong bathed in it, his expression changed from sadness to calmness, as if the whole person was washed.

After playing the "Rebirth Mantra", Zhang Tian played the "Great Compassion Mantra" again, repeating over and over again.

When the fire gradually died down, the body turned into ashes, and the firelight was not so bright, he quietly cast the holographic projection into the middle of the fire.

Everyone saw a translucent figure, exactly like Old Lady Shi, rising slowly from the fire.

Slowly waving at Shi Daxiong, with a smile on his face, rising higher and higher, and finally disappearing in the sky.

At the same time, the golden lotus on the ground also moved with the music.Gradually disappeared.

At this point, the whole ceremony was finally over.

Zhang Tian said: "I will pray for your mother, she will bless you in heaven."

"Work hard and get married in the future to fulfill your mother's last wish."

"I will ask the general's mansion to register you. In the future, when the Hu people go south to forage, you can be allowed to enter the city to ensure the safety of your family."

Shi Daxiong's face no longer had a hysterical look. He kowtowed to Zhang Tian three times solemnly and said: "Thank you, immortal. I, Shi Daxiong, have nothing to repay you. I am willing to be a cow and a horse in the next life to repay you."

"Get up."

As Shi Daxiong stood up, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Shi Daxiong, my family is in Xiangyang City. I have a shop and a daughter. If you don't mind, we can become relatives."

Everyone looked at him sideways.

What kind of people are these? You come to propose marriage just after others send their mother away. Aren't you too ignorant?

Someone who knew him cursed: "Old man Wang, don't you think it's unlucky?!"

Old man Wang said he was an old man, but he was actually only in his early forties. He cursed: "What do you know? The immortals personally prayed for the salvation and bestowed blessings. In the future, Shi Daxiong will be more blessed than many people. If I'm slow, it will be snatched away by others."

When everyone heard this, they immediately "woke up": "It seems so. The playboy of the Zhang family was beaten by the immortals, and he became wise and now he has become polite and well-mannered."

"Yes, yes, he was beaten by the immortals. Shi Daxiong is Blessed by the immortals."

"As you all saw just now, when the immortals performed the salvation, the sky was full of flowers and the ground was full of golden lotuses. His mother ascended to heaven again, so she must be very blessed."

"Shi Daxiong, my family also has a daughter who has not yet married..."

Old Shi was furious: "I called first, how dare you cut me off?"

"Tsk, this kind of thing is not about who calls first who gets first, it depends on which girl Shi Daxiong likes."

Seeing that several people from Xiangyang City were vying to marry their daughters to him, happiness came too suddenly, and Shi Daxiong was still a little confused.

If Zhang Tian hadn't been by his side, I'm afraid someone would have come forward to rip off his clothes and prepare to snatch the bride.

Shi Daxiong was stunned for a while and said: "Thank you all for your kindness. My mother just left, and I need to guard her for three years. Let's talk about everything after three years."

Zhang Tian saw that Shi Daxiong was already very old, and he had to guard for another three years.

If he missed this opportunity, he didn't know what would happen after three years.

So he said: "Your mother's last wish is that you carry on the family line. You don't have to follow the ancient rituals during the mourning period. You can talk about marriage after the last seven days."

The last seven days are the last seven days of the 49-day funeral custom.

After this period of time, it is in line with customs and gives families who are interested in marriage enough time to get to know each other, so as not to get married in a rush.

Shi Daxiong bowed again to thank him, his eyes full of hope.

At this time, Xu Wen came over and asked: "Master, the mourning music that just sounded, is it the "Rebirth Mantra" and the "Great Compassion Mantra"?

Zhang Tian was a little surprised: "You know this too?"

"Hehe, I know a little bit. I have read a lot of books and know a thing or two about Buddhist scriptures." Xu Wen looked proud.

Zhang Tian said unhappily: "You read so many random books, no wonder you didn't pass the imperial examination."

Xu Wen's expression darkened, and then he smiled and said: "If I hadn't read so many books about strange things, how could I be accepted as a disciple by the immortal master? This way of fate is wonderful. Becoming a disciple of the immortal master is much better than passing the imperial examination."

"Okay, stop flattering. Let's go back to the city."

At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly raised a ceremonial guard with a golden dragon embroidered on it.

A clear voice shouted: "The angel is here! I came to pay homage to the immortal by the order of the emperor, everyone retreat!"
