The moment Paperman Xu finished speaking, the temperature in the room, which had returned to normal, dropped a few points.
The next moment, a crack appeared on the He Kui Corpse Killing Talisman drawn on hemp paper on the copper coffin.
I was shocked, and my whole body was extremely alert.
However, other than this crack, the talisman paper showed no signs of further damage.
After all, it was daytime, and this house was not the haunted house where Mrs. He died, so she couldn't cause trouble.
Soon, the temperature in the house returned to normal.
The paper man Xu looked at the copper coffin with burning eyes, licked the corners of his mouth, and his eyes became even hotter.
He suddenly said: "Years ago, she killed so many people. This corpse is definitely ferocious enough. If you peel her skin off, isn't it what you call doing justice for heaven? Maybe Uncle Xu and you can still save some money." It’s a bit virtuous to come down.”
Paper Man Xu’s words made my heart skip a beat!
What he said was indeed what I expected, but I also felt that Paperman Xu was extremely brave.
We can't even deal with Lady He, and now we have to find a way to draw the talisman, but he actually wants to skin her.
However, if he can really do it, this is a good strategy!
It’s not that I haven’t thought about it, whether Lady River could be what Jiang Yihong called the “Second Burial Water”, a test for me.
But now, I have directly denied it.
My previous understanding was that if a corpse wants to be buried, it must not harm anyone.
But after following Jiang Yihong to learn skills in Dixianglu, I realized that if Mr. Yin Yang is strong enough and can cover the sky with one hand and tamper with Feng Shui, some vicious corpses that have killed people can also be sent away.
But for those vicious corpses that had killed too many people, it was absolutely impossible to send them away.
The number of people killed by Mrs. He is not a small number, Zhou Jie’s parents, people in Miaojia Village who died of serious illness...
Where could such a corpse be buried?
It can only be destroyed!
With my thoughts at this point, I immediately asked Paper Man Xu, how sure was he that he could skin Lady River?
The paper man Xu raised his hand and gestured with his fingers.
"..." Suddenly sweat broke out on my forehead again.
"One percent is already quite high. We need to open the coffin first." The paper man Xu said.
I took a deep breath and told the paper man Xu that it was daytime and the coffin could indeed be opened.
But after opening the coffin, closing the coffin lid will no longer work, and the entire talisman on the coffin will be completely broken.
It's past the Great Yin period now, so there will indeed be no problem before dark, but after dark, the Lady of the River will definitely cheat her body.
Xu, the paper man, didn't answer me. He just walked to the back of the copper coffin, pressed the lid of the coffin hard, and pushed it forward.
He has already taken advantage of it, so I don't think about it anymore. It's a desperate situation. Either the paper man Xu succeeds, or we both capsize in the gutter!
An unpleasant friction sound was heard, and the coffin lid was slowly pushed open.
During the process of opening the coffin, the He Kui Corpse Killing Talisman drawn on the hemp paper on the lid was broken into several pieces.
I also heard a clicking sound, as if something was broken.
Subconsciously, I lowered my head and glanced at the side of the copper coffin beneath me.
The evil-suppressing talisman, which was originally written clearly, turned out to be blurry as if it were rusted.
There was a putrid smell that I couldn't describe. It wasn't just the smell of rotting corpses, but the smell of rotten river fish.
It stands to reason that if a corpse becomes evil, then the corpse will not rot. So what's going on with this smell?
My attention returned to the coffin lid, which had just been pushed open a crack.
The paper man Xu had exerted all his strength, his arms were stretched straight, and his forearms were trembling.
I also used all my strength, gritted my teeth, and shouted "Get up!"
The friction sound became louder, and we finally pushed the coffin lid open by about half a foot. The resistance suddenly disappeared, and we easily pushed the entire coffin lid down!
There was a muffled "bang" sound, the coffin lid fell to the ground, and the ground shook twice.
Everything in the copper coffin was exposed to sight.
I no longer breathed through my nose, but through my mouth, trying not to smell.
The breath in his mouth seemed to be very sticky.
Paperman Xu's face suddenly turned ugly: "This is corpse gas, it's poisonous."
While talking, Paperman Xu took out two pieces of cloth!
The cloth was dark in color. He flicked it with his backhand and put one directly on my nose.
At that moment, I actually felt like my head was fainting, but after being covered by the cloth, I subconsciously took a breath, and a spicy smell rushed into my nose, instantly dispersing the turbidity in my head.
I suddenly woke up a lot, and felt even more frightened.
I don’t know much about corpse energy.
But Miao Guangyang's chest injury and his appearance after losing the life-saving money were still vivid in his mind.
Paperman Xu's eyes became extremely solemn. He released his hold on my hand and I took the cloth myself.
Then, he quickly wrapped a piece of steel wire around his head to secure the cloth on his face.
Paperman Xu lowered his head and looked inside the coffin.
All my attention was focused on the copper coffin.
But the corpse I saw made my heart tremble.
In my imagination, since the River Lady is the woman who was thrown into the water to marry the River God, she must be a woman of twenty years of age.
But I didn't expect that it turned out to be a girl who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old at most!
The clothes she was wearing at this time was a Tang suit.
The Tang suit was obviously too big and completely wrapped her body, leaving only her head outside.
The childish face, the eyes tightly closed, but that face was full of innocence and deathly silence.
Her hair was messy and messy, but there was a hairpin made of floral cloth on the top of her head.
I can't describe it, but the moment I saw her, I just felt goosebumps all over my body.
It wasn't the fear she brought to me, she was just a motionless corpse at this time.
I feel so desolate and miserable.
At such an age and appearance, he is clearly still a child, yet he is regarded as a sacrifice to the river god...
How desperate and painful must her parents have been back then?
In addition, what exactly is this river god hanging over the river? Do you want a young girl to be your wife?
Most of the villagers like to pray to gods and Buddhas for blessings and peace. The gods and Buddhas in the temples only accept some incense and tributes, including fruits and vegetables.
Even monks and Taoist priests in temples will release grain in disaster years.
I don’t know whether the gods and Buddhas have protected me, but I know that at least the temples and Taoist temples did not receive the people’s worship in vain.
But regarding this river god, as a corpse collector, I actually have the most opinions and knowledge.
My father taught me since I was a child that if you salvage a corpse, you must offer it to the river god.
Even when I retrieved my father's body, I sacrificed it twice and three times!
All I have seen over the years are offerings to the River God, and I have never seen the River God blessing me. Even my father lost his life and did not survive.
A river god who wants virgins, gold, silver, and blood as offerings, is he a river god or a river ghost? !
My heart became extremely cold in an instant, and I even felt it was colder than the ice condensed on the hanging river in the cold winter!
"Uncle Xu, Li Yinyang will never worship the river god again."
I whispered, word by word.
The hand of the paper man Xu reached into the coffin, clearly intending to lift the body.
