Two days later.
At night.
Lin Lu's family.
The white coffin was still placed on several benches in the yard.
The white coffin has been tied again with cinnabar ink thread.
A circle of white lime powder was also sprinkled around again.
A big cloth was also pulled up above the head of the white coffin to block the moonlight from shining directly on the coffin in the yard.
Behind the white coffin was a copper basin with incense candles lit.
There are still ashes left in the copper basin. Those ashes are paper money and ingots burned to the owner of the white coffin.
The night is silent.
Everyone around has gone to sleep.
Changxian County outside the yard was dark, deserted, and completely quiet.
But there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the yard tonight.
During the day, Daochang Chen took several young people from the Lin family, as well as the Yin-Yang Compass passed down by his ancestor, to the mountains and rivers near Kanyuchang County again. As a result, Daochang Chen and the others failed to come back on time before dark today.
This made the seven people responsible for guarding the coffin, Lin Heshun, miserable.
They have never faced such a battle alone.
It’s okay not to know what to do.
"I'm really anxious. Daozhang Chen took Lin Shan and the others out to see the mountains and rivers. Why did they go there all day long? It's already dark now. Why haven't they come back yet?"
"What can I do if I come back now? There's a curfew now, you can't enter the city gate, and you can't just walk around on the street. Instead of waiting for Director Chen to bring people back, it's better to think about how to get through tonight. Niang Xipi, There is a coffin placed in the yard, what is the difference between sleeping with the coffin? It always feels like the whole yard is filled with wind!"
"Stop saying such scary things at night, I have goosebumps on my arms right now!"
The seven of them sat in the yard and drank, with the accompanying dishes of pork head, cold pig ears, roast chicken...
Fenjiu makes you feel hot after entering your mouth.
Feeling comfortable all over.
The more you drink, the stronger your stamina will be, and the smell of alcohol will gradually increase.
But the more I drank, the more addictive I became.
During the night vigil, no one can stay up all night without a few sips of wine.
Since the corpse theft occurred five days ago, in order to prevent similar incidents from happening again, the Lin family has arranged for five or six young people in high spirits to accompany Daochang Chen and take turns guarding the coffin every night.
"Brothers, do you think the Sanyang wine prepared by Director Chen for our night vigil is really that magical? From what Director Chen said, it doesn't sound like he is lying to us. Can the wine really ward off evil spirits?"
While drinking Sanyang wine, one of them looked nervously at the white coffin placed next to him, and said nervously with a doubtful expression on his face.
After hearing what their companions said, the remaining people all started talking:
"I think Daozhang Chen's ability is obvious to all. Everyone respects Daozhang Chen, so Daozhang Chen... shouldn't have any need to make up a lie to deceive us, right?"
"I don't care if this wine can really ward off evil spirits, I just know that if I stay up late without drinking to refresh myself, I definitely won't be able to stay up all night without sleeping."
"Yes, yes, that's absolutely true."
The person who spoke at the beginning still had a nervous expression on his face: "It's not that I doubt what Director Chen said, it's mainly because there is a dead person sleeping in the coffin next to him, which is a bit scary."
At this time, Lin Heshun continued: "According to what Taoist Chen said, the evil spirit and resentment after death are just left by the human spirit. Wine can disperse qi, so doctors in medical clinics use it to promote blood circulation, sweating, and relieve depression. The medicines used to dispel colds are always mixed with wine. If something unclean comes back, we drink several jars of Sanyang wine. The yang energy in our body will be suppressed by the yin energy, and it will definitely not be able to get into our bodies."
After listening to Lin Heshun's words, one of them burped and muttered, smelling of alcohol: "Why do I feel that Master Chen said that on purpose, just to make us drunk and emboldened."
…
Next, a few people drank wine, ate meat and wine, and talked about which girl had a big butt and a vagina, and which street had a girl with strong butts and a cheap price. They used this to numb themselves and not think about the coffin.
The night is getting dark.
Gradually it came to the second half of the night.
The moonlight above the head is getting darker and darker, and a dark cloud blocks the moonlight, making it hazy and blurry, like a hairy moon with white hair.
This night is getting darker and darker.
The seven of them, Lin and Shun, drank so much that their tongues seemed to be unable to find their own. There were empty wine jars lying beside the table.
Lin Heshun felt that his bladder was getting more and more swollen.
No more.
He could no longer hold back the urine that was brewing more and more.
He felt that his dick had been stuffed back into his stomach, and he probably wouldn't even be able to find his dick when he went to the manhole to relieve himself.
In fact, Lin Heshun was always worried about guarding a dead man's coffin.
He had been feeling the urge to pee for a long time.
But the man couldn't save his face and didn't dare to admit that he was a coward. He said that he was afraid of going to the latrine to relieve himself alone, so he didn't dare to go.
So I just held my urine in for almost half an hour.
Lin Heshun felt that he couldn't hold it in any longer.
The more afraid of the coffin, the stronger the urge to urinate.
"Brothers, do any of you want to relieve yourself together?"
"I just wanted to relieve myself."
Because he had held his urine for so long, Lin Heshun felt cold and trembling all over when he spoke, and his voice was slightly trembling.
The few people who were drinking heavily and eating meat looked at each other in tacit understanding. The four of them suddenly stood up. It turned out that the seven of them had been holding back their urine for a long time, and they were just waiting for who would be the first to hold it in. Don't wait, whoever speaks first.
A man's self-esteem at this moment.
It's better to take a pee.
"But if all seven of us are gone, who will guard the coffin?"
"Archie, Ah Yang, Ah Feng, you three will stay here first. After the four of us have finished relieving ourselves, we will come back and take your turn."
Those three people were very cunning.
As soon as he spoke, he immediately left the table, leaving only Lin Qi and the three of them cursing.
The three of them had no choice but to continue eating the food and drinks in boredom, waiting for Lin Heshun and the four of them to come back.
However, the three of them waited and waited, but Lin Heshun and the others could not come back.
Worried that something unexpected had happened, the three decided to go find someone.
This is the front yard, and the latrine is a filthy place, so naturally it won't be in the front yard. Usually when friends, relatives, or visitors come to the house, the smell of summer shouldn't scare them away.
After the house, there is a small backyard, where cooking firewood, farm tools, sundries, etc. are stored. Naturally, the huts were also built there.
When Lin Qi and the others walked through the house and came to the backyard, they saw Lin Heshun and the others in good condition, with no accidents.
The four of them got up and walked around, and when they were blown by the night wind, they were completely drunk. The four of them bent down and vomited, leaving food residues all over the floor.
The thick stench of the latrine in the backyard was mixed with the sour smell of undigested food, and the stench was astounding.
Lin Qi and the others burst out laughing, mocking Lin Heshun and the others for their poor drunkenness.
But right now!
"Snapped!"
In the originally peaceful night, there was suddenly a sound like something falling to the ground. This sound was particularly harsh.
"what sound?"
"It seems to be coming from the front yard where the coffin is placed?"
"Oops!"
