There is a saying in the Burial Sutra: Feng Shui dragon veins originate from heaven and earth and are conceived in mountains and rivers. When it encounters mountains, it walks; when it encounters water, it flows; this is Feng Shui; when it gathers, it is good; when it gathers, it brings blessings to the world; when it disperses, it is bad; when it leaves misfortunes and hurts people, it is called dragon veins. In general, wherever dragon veins gather, there is a risk of disaster. The winner will be prosperous, and the loser will be ruined. Therefore, you must be cautious when searching for dragon's acupoints.
This sentence fully illustrates the dual nature of Feng Shui's dragon vein. Feng Shui nourishes people, but it can also kill people. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. All things in this world are interdependent and mutually reinforcing. One drink and one peck all have their own reasons. One is not good. That would be the end of the family being ruined.
Therefore, for my grandpa, I just want to be safe, not greedy.
After the acupuncture points were determined, Chen Yunqi and I rushed back to the village, and then took the grave digger directly to the determined acupuncture points in the back mountain.
When I came back, it was already noon, and many people came to pay their respects to my grandfather one after another. After all, he was famous back then, but this funeral was rushed and everything was simple, so most people probably couldn't make it!
At three o'clock in the afternoon, when the time came, I asked everyone to seize the time to bury my grandfather and put it in the coffin.
At this time, the funeral was ready, but the grave had not been dug yet, so it was delayed for a full hour, and the funeral was not held until four o'clock.
My father and I, wearing sackcloth and mourning, walked in front holding the memorial tablet to lead the way. Of course, we were leading the way for my grandfather. The coffin bearers followed closely behind.
Paper money was flying all the way, and the atmosphere couldn't be told whether it was depressing or solemn, but no one cried.
Of course my father wouldn't cry, because given the relationship between him and my grandfather, he probably wouldn't be that sad.
As for me, I was actually quite sad, but I just couldn’t cry.
The funeral procession left the village all the way. This was already the fourth funeral in the village today. Li Quande and the others all had funerals in the morning. They also kept everything simple and basically omitted all the rituals that could be saved!
After turning a corner and reaching the mountain section, several black snakes suddenly crawled across the road.
I frowned at that time. I still vividly remembered the scene of beheading the snake last night. I suddenly saw a black snake again, which was somewhat reminiscent. Besides, I encountered a snake aisle on the way to the funeral. This is not good in terms of Feng Shui. Not a good sign.
The funeral procession had to stop temporarily and planned to wait for the snake to pass before going up the mountain.
But who would have thought that the wait would be endless. More and more black snakes crawled over from the other side, twisting and crawling across the road. When we arrived, we looked around and saw that the road was densely covered with black snakes, which made everyone’s eyes dazzled!
The mourners were so frightened that they backed away.
Naturally, people and snakes in this rural area have been seen a lot, and they have long been used to it. However, with so many snakes crawling right before your eyes, the scene is still quite scary.
Chen Yunqi hurriedly ran to the front, his face even more solemn than last night.
I figured something must be wrong. It's better to show respect for something like this. After all, everything in the world has its own spirituality, so you still have to be in awe.
I had no choice but to light incense sticks on the side of the road, hoping that these snakes would pass by quickly. If I delayed any longer, it would be too late!
After waiting for more than ten minutes, all the snakes on the road in front of us were gone. I made a rough estimate. In just this moment, there must be at least tens of thousands of black snakes crawling past our eyes.
This number is already quite scary!
"Eleven, your grandpa is getting heavier and heavier!"
Just as I breathed a sigh of relief, the man carrying the coffin suddenly shouted.
I turned around and saw that the faces of the people carrying the coffin were already flushed, especially Da Niu, who was so pressed that he couldn't straighten up, and felt like he was about to drop his arms at any moment.
"Don't let go."
I immediately yelled and ran towards the coffin.
If the coffin falls to the ground on the way, it will be evil. My grandfather will probably stay here directly, and then we will be in big trouble!
Rushing to the coffin, I quickly stretched out my hand to drag the bottom of the coffin, hoping to lighten the burden on the coffin bearer. But as soon as I reached the bottom of the coffin, my expression changed immediately!
There was actually water under the coffin, and it was wet to the touch.
This is definitely not because the coffin is damp, but because of the evil spirit, which means that the corpse has been exposed to the evil spirit. If it falls to the ground and receives the earth's energy, the body will immediately transform into a corpse.
I quickly took out an evil-avoiding charm from my pocket and stuck it on the bottom of the coffin, and then took out a corpse-killing charm and stuck it on the top of the coffin.
Now the coffin finally returned to normal, and the people carrying the coffin lifted the coffin again.
My forehead is already sweating. Fortunately, I made preparations in advance and drew a few charms to bring with me. Otherwise, just in this situation, I would be in big trouble!
"Hurry up, it's going to be dark soon!"
Chen Yunqi also walked over and said solemnly.
I nodded, and then told the coffin bearers to hurry up, otherwise it would be very troublesome when it gets dark.
When everyone heard this, their faces turned pale, and everyone walked very fast along the way.
Of course, the coffin bearers are constantly changing, otherwise the coffin bearers would definitely not be able to carry it all the way to the back mountain.
It gets dark very early in the countryside during this season, especially in the mountains. As soon as the sun sets, it gets dark almost in the blink of an eye!
By the time the coffin was carried to the cemetery, it was already past midnight and it was completely dark.
Time was tight, so many ceremonies were omitted. I asked everyone to put the coffin directly into the grave, intending to bury it first.
But as soon as the coffin was put down, a dull knocking sound and a "bang" came from inside.
The sound was so loud that even the coffin shook. The faces of everyone present turned pale, and some even couldn't help but take a few steps back, ready to run away at any moment.
I simply don’t know how to describe the look on my face at that time.
Logically speaking, there will be no problem in placing the coffin into the hole that has been set, right? Moreover, there is no theory of catching evil spirits in the tomb, unless the acupuncture points are placed on the evil veins.
I had carefully looked at this hole during the day, and there was nothing wrong with the feng shui. There was absolutely no evil in it. But now that the coffin was in the grave and there was a sudden knock on the coffin, I was a little confused about the situation!
"Don't panic, bury it first, don't wait until midnight, otherwise you will be in big trouble!"
Chen Yunqi put his hand on my shoulder and said.
"Yes, bury it first!"
Only then did I realize that funeral matters are the most taboo today, and it was already more than halfway through Unity Hour. By seven o'clock, there would really be a big problem!
Everyone had the courage to fill up the grave pit and pile up a very high grave mound, for fear that there would be less soil on it and it would not be able to hold my grandfather down.
I just had time to light up the incense sticks and burn some paper money. Then I took out my phone and looked at it. At 7:03 pm, the hour of Unity has passed!
