C15 Evil Thing
Although my dad agreed to let me stay at Wang Sicheng's house as his son-in-law and guard his soul, he couldn't help but remind me to not pay attention to anything that I see or hear when I was there. No matter what, I had to be indifferent to it. This was because Wang Sicheng's death was quite strange, so there would definitely be a lot of unexpected things! It might even cause some trouble! And I had a special physique, so I could only wait until he came to measure Wang Sicheng's corpse at night.
Hearing my dad's words, I could only nod my head in agreement. No matter what, it was already very difficult for him to agree to let me guard Wang Sicheng's soul!
To be honest, the reason why I wanted to guard Wang Sicheng's soul so much was because Wang Sicheng was my master. I wanted to send him on his last journey! Secondly, it was because I wanted to see how my dad would deal with the situation if something unexpected happened tonight. I could learn some skills from the Chen family from him!
Because of the ancestral teachings of the ancestors, my dad was restricted by the identity of the Corpse Measuring Man. So, he could not come into contact with the corpse during the day! He could only let me leave with the people of the Wang family alone!
Before I left, my grandfather stopped me. Although he didn't know how to be more like my dad in some aspects, he was still quite experienced!
He called me over and took out a red string from his body and tied it to my left wrist.
I couldn't help but ask, not knowing what grandfather was doing.
Grandfather told me that I was hesitant to be a member of the Wang family, and that I was not Wang Sicheng's son! So, I was temporarily guarding the soul of my filial son. No matter what, it was considered to have offended the deceased!
More importantly, Wang Sicheng died a horrible death! He had such a grudge in his heart. When I go over later, if the red string on my hand falls off, then no matter what happens, I must leave immediately. Otherwise, I might be captured by Wang Sicheng's vengeful spirit and become his substitute!
Hearing grandfather's words, I hurriedly nodded and agreed.
Just like that, after my father and grandfather repeatedly told me, I finally left with the people of the Wang family!
Soon, I arrived at Wang Sicheng's house.
At this moment, the people of the Wang family had already set up the mourning hall in Wang Sicheng's house!
Just as I entered the house, I saw a large black coffin placed in front of them. Moreover, there were two long benches placed under the coffin to support the coffin so that it wouldn't fall to the ground!
However, because there were only a few people in the Wang family, including the one who came to find me, there were only four people. Moreover, there was a woman and an old man!
Therefore, the funeral was only completed. Wang Sicheng's corpse had yet to enter the coffin!
When he saw that I was here, the old man quickly came over and said a few words of courtesy to me. Then, he gave me a mourning robe.
I roughly glanced at it. Then, without saying anything, I put it on and knelt beside the coffin.
The old man then called the other two men from the Wang family to go into the house to carry the corpse!
There were certain rules when carrying the corpse into the coffin! Normally, two people carried the corpse. One carried the corpse with two legs, and the other carried the corpse with one head!
After a person passed away, there would still be a breath left in the throat, which would be stuck in there. It was commonly known as miasma!
Moreover, this breath contained the pain and unwillingness of the deceased! Especially for the dead!
When the corpse was touched, the breath would come out from the throat. Once someone was sprayed on the face by this breath, that person would immediately fall ill! Not only that, but the rest of his life would be filled with misfortune and misfortune! More importantly, he would be sick for the rest of his life, and he would suffer!
Therefore, when carrying the corpse, the person who carried the corpse's head had to carry the corpse with his back facing the deceased. Then, he put the corpse into the coffin!
And we are in such a situation right now!
After the two men from the Wang family lifted Wang Sicheng's corpse from the ground, they slowly walked towards the coffin.
Then, the two of them stood side by side, and the old man directed them to put the corpse into the coffin.
Normally, this was something that required professional people to take care of. There were many people who could do this kind of thing! There were professional corpse carriers, and there were also people like my father. In addition, there was also a type of profession called the Eight Immortals! As for the Eight Immortals, they would emphasize it later, so let's not talk about it for now.
For things like this, it was important to be stable! The corpse had to be placed in the coffin as parallel as possible. Once it deviated, it would be very unfavorable for the people in the family!
It was said that if the left side of the corpse entered the coffin first, it would be very unfavorable for men in the family! The old man would die early, and the children would die prematurely!
On the contrary, if the right side of the corpse was placed in the coffin first, it would be very bad for the women in the family! The bigger the deviation, the more troublesome the problem would be!
Therefore, everyone would be very careful when placing the corpse in the coffin! No one dared to be careless!
Because the person who was carrying the corpse's head had his back to the corpse, he basically couldn't see what was happening behind him. He could only listen to the old man's instructions. Therefore, something very serious happened at this time!
When they were about to put the body into the coffin, the person in front of them could not see what was going on behind them. Therefore, they accidentally bumped into one side of the body on the coffin. The person behind them did not expect things to turn out like this. He was still trying hard!
As the two of them used too much strength, Wang Sicheng's body fell from their hands and fell into the coffin with his face facing down!
Seeing this, everyone was dumbfounded! No one knew what to do about this kind of thing!
At this moment, the only woman in the Wang family who was standing in the house and boiling water suddenly burst into tears! It was as if she had been frightened.
We were already a little nervous about Wang Sicheng's corpse! When they saw the woman crying like that, they felt even more flustered!
Especially the man who was carrying Wang Sicheng's head! He was the woman's husband. At this moment, seeing the woman cry like that, he felt a little embarrassed! He could not help but scold loudly, "Why are you crying? What's there to cry about? Do you believe that if you keep crying, I'll find something to block your mouth!"
When she heard the man say that, the woman stopped crying! She stopped without any warning! It was hard to understand!
I vaguely felt that something was wrong with this woman!
However, I couldn’t figure out what was wrong.
However, I immediately understood!
After the woman stopped crying, she picked up the kettle and raised it above her head.
When we saw this, we were all stunned! We didn’t understand what she was trying to do!
The kettle was filled with hot water! It was still boiling!
“You… What are you doing?”
The woman’s husband was scared when he saw this!
The woman revealed a sinister smile and said to the man, “Didn’t you say that you wanted to find something to cover my mouth? I found it!”
After she said that, the woman twisted her wrist and poured the water from the kettle onto the woman’s head!
Instantly, the woman’s head became red and swollen! The skin on her face was cooked!
Not only that, but the long hair on her head also flowed down the water!
After the woman finished doing all of this, it was as if she didn't feel any pain at all! She just kept laughing at us!
All of us just stood there quietly. No one knew what to do now!
In the end, Mr. Wang was the first to react. He immediately said to the others, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and catch her!"
Hearing Mr. Wang's words, we finally reacted. Then, we prepared to rush over and catch the woman.
However, at this moment, the woman suddenly woke up!
The moment she woke up, she let out a heart-wrenching wail! Then, her eyes rolled back and she fainted from the pain!
Seeing this situation, the woman's husband immediately carried the woman on his back and ran out without a word.
At this moment, the three of us felt a chill in our bodies! This matter was too unbelievable! It could be said that it was extremely strange!
We just quietly looked at Wang Sicheng's corpse lying in the coffin. No one dared to say a word!
At this moment, the big yellow dog in Wang Sicheng's courtyard suddenly barked like a mad dog! While barking, it struggled to break free from the chains. It seemed like it wanted to rush in and fight!
The three of us felt extremely nervous! After hearing the dog’s barking, we were scared out of our wits! Our minds went blank for a moment!
Just when we calmed down, we heard a “crash” sound. The yellow dog actually broke the chain on his neck and ran towards us!
