The boss died peacefully, not scary at all.
Wu Guobin covered his body with a white cloth and pushed it to the morgue.
In that era, because funeral parlors were not yet popular, morgues were standard equipment in hospitals and were a must-have for every tertiary-level hospital.
To be honest, although the morgue is convenient for family members, it is too disturbing.
Sister Yuan's hotel is right next to the hospital, and people often cry and shout suddenly in the middle of the night, which seriously affects her life.
During funerals, people also go from the morgue. Many family members of the deceased break down pots, carry flags and mourn on the streets. This happens almost every day.
Sister Yuan told me that women cannot go to the morgue, so this matter can only be left to me. But if something goes wrong, I must protect myself first and run away immediately if something goes wrong.
Sister Yuan has become quite haggard these days. I looked at her with some distress, said nothing, took my things and went to the morgue.
Because it was late at night, the hospital was very quiet, and there was no one in the morgue except Wu Guobin.
This was the first time in my life that I entered the morgue. I looked at the freezers in the room and thought that there was a dead person lying in each freezer. I felt uncomfortable all over.
The boss was lying on a stretcher, covered with a white cloth, covering his head and face.
This place is quite suitable. It happens to be what Hu’s mother said: “There is no skylight above and no earthly atmosphere below.”
According to the procedure, the boss should seal the seven orifices first, but after working hard for a long time, my hands were still shaking a little.
After all, yesterday I was a living person, and now I have turned into a corpse, lying in a cold morgue. This is really hard for me to accept.
And looking at the boss's body, I thought of my uncle who I beat to death. I wonder if he was like this at that time, lying alone in the morgue, never drinking again, never bullying his aunt again?
I felt very regretful for a moment. After all, he was the backbone of my aunt's family. If he died, what would happen to my aunt's life?
Seeing that I was uneasy, Wu Guobin didn't say anything. He just glanced at me coldly, took the cotton from my hand, and quickly sealed the boss's seven orifices.
Generally speaking, the seven orifices refer to the ears, eyes, nose, and mouth.
The ancients believed that there is still a breath of Qi in the body after death. As long as this Qi does not leak out, the body will not decay.
Gold and jade can preserve corpses for a long time, so in the old days, seven orifices, and even nine orifices, were sealed for the dead to prevent the energy from leaking out.
There is also a Taoist saying: if gold and jade are in the nine orifices, the deceased will be immortal.
To put it bluntly, the body is immortal and the soul remains.
The so-called nine orifices are the seven orifices plus the cloaca, all of which are plugged with gold and jade.
Of course, only the rich and powerful can use gold and jade. If poor people don't have the conditions, they will use copper coins instead. This is what the so-called pressure money in the past was used for.
But the seven orifices that Hu Ma asked us to seal were slightly different from this one, replacing the eyes with the navel and anus.
After sealing the seven orifices, I took out the talisman and the straw man and burned them on the boss's head.
After doing this, Wu Guobin asked me to guard here by myself, and he turned around and left.
The hairs on my body stood up, and I thought to myself, you are not being honest. Sister Yuan gave you money to do something, but you ended up throwing me in the morgue?
Wu Guobin didn't drink today, he spoke very little, his face was sullen, and his whole body was full of gloom. It was very uncomfortable to be with him.
I didn’t say anything more, thinking it was just one night anyway, so I gritted my teeth and endured it.
But this night was too difficult. I sat on a hard bench and stared at the boss's body, fearing that something might happen.
Fortunately, it's freezing here, and the freezers containing corpses around me add to the atmosphere so well that I can't even feel sleepy.
At about three o'clock, I started to doze off a little, but I didn't dare to close my eyes. There seemed to be a villain in my mind urging me to go to bed quickly.
There is a bed in the corner, but I know that those things are meant to push people to death. Even if I die, I wouldn't dare to lie down on it and sleep on it.
Later, I leaned against the wall, hugged my shoulders with my hands, and closed my eyes for a while.
But in this case, I didn't sleep well, and my mind was confused.
After a while, I felt like I saw Xiaoyun. She was standing outside the morgue, her hair disheveled, her eyes pale, and she looked at me expressionlessly.
Then, the boss’s body also sat up and walked towards me, swaying.
I was frightened and wanted to run away quickly, but I couldn't move at all. My body seemed to be controlled by something.
Seeing that the boss's body was almost in front of me, he even grinned at me sinisterly and muttered something to me.
I was so anxious that I opened my eyes suddenly.
The surroundings were quiet, the boss's body was still lying on the bed, Xiaoyun's ghost was not outside the door, nothing happened.
Only then did I realize that I was in a nightmare. When I touched my forehead, I was covered in cold sweat.
But I did hear someone talking. When I listened carefully, it seemed like they were next door.
In the middle of the night, someone spoke in the morgue, which made me feel relieved again, so I tiptoed to the next door to see what was going on.
It turned out to be Wu Guobin, holding a wine bottle in his hand, sitting on the ground with his back against the freezer holding the dead man.
A freezer next to him was opened, and a gap was opened. He sat there, pouring wine into his mouth, and drunkenly talking to the corpse inside.
I didn't see the body, but I could vaguely see a strand of hair sticking out of it, which was still covered in ice.
There is no doubt that that should be his wife.
I was frightened into a cold sweat again, thinking that the previous rumors seemed to be true.
When I returned to the morgue, I was completely sleepless and stayed with my boss's body until dawn.
Although I was quite frightened, fortunately nothing happened that night, there were no ghosts and ghosts, and I didn’t see Xiaoyun’s ghost.
It seems that Hu's mother is indeed very powerful. After all, Xiaoyun died not long ago. In Hu's words, she has no moral character and should not dare to make mistakes.
And I'm a little proud, because with the experience of keeping vigil in the morgue, I can brag to others in the future.
The boss's body remained in the morgue for three days, and Sister Yuan and I were also in fear for three days.
Facts have proved that Hu Ma's method is very effective. She has been safe and sound for the past three days and nothing happened.
On the fourth day, under the arrangement of Hu's mother, Xiaoyun was given a salvation ritual, which finally resolved the grievances and sent her to death.
Then we burned another talisman, mixed it into talisman water, and drank it for the boss.
He had been dead for three days, but miraculously, his body remained semi-soft. Even though the teeth were hard, I managed to pry them open, and at least half of the talisman water was poured in.
With the help of Wu Guobin, we secretly transported the boss back to his home, covered him with a thick quilt, and removed the cotton that sealed the seven orifices.
At this time, I suddenly discovered that a few of the cotton sealing Qiqiao had fallen out at some point, and there were only two left.
After a few hours, the boss finally woke up.
But his eyes were dull and he didn't respond when we talked to him.
He has not recovered even after two days in bed. He has become stupid and his IQ is like that of a five or six year old child.
Sister Yuan went to ask Mother Hu what was going on. Mother Hu offered incense and asked the old immortal, then sighed and said that this was all God's will and the retribution for his own sins.
Normal people have three souls and seven souls. Mother Hu asked us to seal his seven orifices just to seal his soul. But then the cotton that sealed the seven orifices fell off, causing most of his soul to disappear, and he became stupid.
Sister Yuan wanted Hu Ma to help him, but Hu Ma said that this was his own cause and effect, and he had to bear it by himself. It was good to save his life.
Sister Yuan didn't say a word along the way, but cried when she got home.
She told me that she used to be a waiter. When her mother was sick, her family was in difficult circumstances and she had no money for medical treatment. It was her boss who paid for her to help her get through that difficult time.
That's why she followed her boss, and she was always very grateful to him, and later she continued to tolerate his boss's bad habits.
But now that the boss has become like this, who can rely on her in the future?
I felt very sad and didn't know how to comfort her, so I told her that I would always be with her and help her take care of her boss.
Sister Yuan held back her tears. I felt like she wanted to say something to me, but she finally didn't say anything.
A lot of things have changed since the boss's accident.
Sister Yuan put most of her thoughts on her boss and stopped playing cards with her friends. She basically left all the hotel affairs to me.
However, a few days later, an uninvited guest came to the hotel.
