I quickly placed the burning incense on the edge of the basin and let the paper man's feet dip into the water.
This time it was shaking less violently.
I quickly took out a white charm, lit it, and burned the ashes into the basin.
This is the Yin Talisman, which can communicate with Yin and Yang, and even the underworld.
I quickly figured out the trick and chanted the mantra, intending to forcibly overcome it.
But at this moment, the burning incense suddenly stopped, and the paper man sank completely to the bottom of the water.
My expression suddenly changed, and I was about to reach out and fish out the paper man. Unexpectedly, the basin suddenly and inexplicably overturned, water splashed all over the floor, and the basin also turned upside down.
Immediately afterwards, I felt a chill in my back, and a stream of yin energy rushed directly towards my back.
I immediately realized that this was going to hit me, so I quickly picked up a Five Thunder Talisman from the table, then turned around and shot it out.
But this time, the shot was empty. There was nothing behind him.
"Creak..."
The window suddenly opened inexplicably, and then a pot of cactus on the window sill outside flipped over and fell into the yard below. The sound of the flower pot breaking was heard from below.
I stood there frozen for a while, then stretched out my hand to wipe the cold sweat from my forehead, and then put Chen Ling on the bed.
There was water on the ground now, and her clothes were soaked, so I had to change them for her.
After settling Chen Ling, I sat on the edge of the bed and lit a cigarette, smoking with a solemn expression.
No matter what the purpose of my grandfather was, he harmed Li Xiaohua. Anyway, the trouble now falls on me.
And it’s getting trickier.
In the situation just now, nothing unexpected would have happened, because I had already thought that Li Xiaohua was lying to me. She just wanted me to release her. I also planned how to save her, but I didn't expect that after all, God's calculations are not as good as those of humans. At the most critical moment, someone actually broke my spell.
It can be seen that Li Xiaohua must have been driven by someone, and this person must be the guy who pretended to be me and brought the human skin lantern here.
I couldn't guess the identity of the other party, but it was obvious that this guy wanted to harm me.
Now that Li Xiaohua has run away and is being driven by others, the next time he comes to trouble me, he will probably become even more vicious.
Just thinking about it makes me feel dizzy.
I barely slept for the rest of the night, and it took me almost an hour just to mop the water on the floor.
The rooster had already begun to crow, and as soon as I went to bed and smoked a cigarette, it was completely bright.
Chen Ling also woke up at this time, but now she looked very stunned, with a dull look, and she turned into a fool again!
In fact, at this point, I have already guessed a lot of things.
Chen Ling has no soul, and of course she cannot communicate with me like a normal person, so obviously, something must have been borrowed from her, and that thing is actually my real wife.
I think this should be the reason why my grandfather arranged for me to marry into the Chen family. In fact, what he wanted was such a girl with a heart but no soul.
So it's easy to guess why my grandfather didn't let me play with the girls in the village when I was a child. Why did Li Xiaohua and I play that kind of game behind the haystack? After my grandfather found her, she died within two days.
All these things actually illustrate one problem, that is, my grandfather has already arranged a marriage for me, and the wife he has arranged for is obviously not a human being.
I think this has something to do with the fact that when I was just born, my grandfather gave me a life after death. As for what happened? I can't imagine this at the moment.
After getting up and having some breakfast, I went out with a complicated mood.
When I arrived at Gu's house, everything was ready. The old man's bones were put in a new golden nanmu coffin. The burial had been completed, and the coffin bearers were all here, waiting for me to come and preside over it. The coffin was raised for mourning.
I looked at the time. It was a quarter past eight in the morning, which was still early.
Today is the 27th day of the 10th month of the lunar calendar. Renchen and Guisi have long flowing water, which is auspicious and suitable for everything. The best time for weddings is the chen time, while for funerals, the si time is used. Do not bury after noon.
I looked at the time and asked people to lift the coffin. Then paper money flew all the way, and the funeral procession left Huilong Town in a mighty manner.
Originally, there was no need to bother moving the grave, but Gu Changqing felt that when the old man died, he was buried simply. Now, of course, moving to a new grave should be more dignified, so he made some cards and made a lot of paper wreaths for the funeral. There are even more people.
When there were more people, the speed naturally slowed down. By the time we arrived at the cemetery, it was already halfway through.
It was already noon when the coffins were buried, the tombs were erected, and all the funeral supplies were burned.
This matter ends successfully here.
The Gu family held a banquet and entertained all the mourners. As the Feng Shui master who presided over the funeral ceremony, I naturally couldn't escape. Gu Changqing pulled me to the banquet and drank several cups of wine from me.
The banquet ended, the guests dispersed, and the Gu family, which had been busy all day, finally became quiet.
I saw that it was getting late, so I stood up and left. Before I left, I told Gu Changqing a few words, telling him that if anything unusual happened again at home, let him remember to come to me in time.
Because the young man never showed up, I was still a little worried. Even if the other party suffered backlash due to the Gu family's ancestral tomb incident, there was no guarantee that he would not attack the Gu family again.
Gu Changqing naturally nodded in agreement, and personally drove me to the door of his house. He even tried to convince me that I would remember to ask about his niece's birthday when I had time, otherwise I would not be able to withdraw the money from the card.
I'm speechless again.
I don’t know what this guy is thinking? Even though he knew that I was married, he still insisted on creating some connection between me and Gu Xiaorou. If I hadn't seen that he was not a bad person, I would have doubted that he wanted to marry Gu Xiaorou quickly so that he could monopolize the Gu family's property. Woolen cloth!
When I returned home, I heard someone talking in the living room. It seemed that relatives were visiting. When I went in, I found out that it was the village chief and Li Fulin, a bachelor in the village.
My parents and Chen Ling were also there, and it looked like they had just had dinner.
"Eleven, have you eaten?"
My mother saw me coming back and asked me quickly.
"After eating, the Gu family is hosting a banquet today."
I said with a smile, moved a chair and sat down.
"Gu family? Are you talking about Gu Changqing, the rich man in the town? If you know him on the 11th, can you introduce us to a job?"
When the village chief heard the word "Gu family", he quickly raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Village Chief, we'll talk about this later. I'm still looking for Eleven to help me see how things go!"
Li Fulin said displeasedly.
"Oh yes, let's look at the date first."
The village chief also nodded quickly and said.
