I stood in front of the coffin, struggling for a long time, but I didn't dare to open the coffin again and pull out the nails inside.
Because the consequences mentioned by Coffin Yang are too great. Once the nails in the coffin are pulled out, the Yin and Yang inside will lose their balance, and everyone in the nearby villages will die.
I can't bet on such serious consequences, and I don't dare to bet.
So, I could only follow Coffin Yang honestly.
Coffin Yang knew that I was following him, turned around, and said to me: "This time I arrived in time. If it had been a few seconds at night, you would have been in great trouble."
I didn't answer, but stared into his eyes and asked again: "You just said that the old Chinese medicine doctor is a bad person. Is it true or false?"
A layer of tears suddenly flashed in Coffin Yang's eyes, as if recalling the scar buried deep in his heart.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "There are some things that it's better you don't know. As for whether he is a good person, I can swear to my ancestor that he is not a good person."
For ordinary people, oaths are just empty words, but Coffin Yang is a member of Xuanmen. Everything he says and does will be reported to heaven through the three corpse gods. He will pay special attention to oaths in particular.
I also know this. To be honest, I do not believe what the old Chinese medicine doctor says.
First, as Coffin Yang said before, the old Chinese medicine doctor investigated me. How could he take the risk of offending Coffin Yang to save me as a person who met by chance? At least in my eyes, I am just an insignificant person, not worth mentioning at all. It's worth risking his life to save me from someone I don't know.
The second is Coffin Yang's oath. He can swear to God, which shows that what he said is not a lie.
With these two points in mind, my heart was already leaning toward Coffin Yang. I was even thinking about what the old Chinese doctor’s purpose was in trying to release the yin and yang to cause evil.
Is it just because the person in the coffin is his daughter?
It felt like his purpose was not to save his daughter. This was a cemetery, and Coffin Yang couldn't stay here forever. If he wanted to save her, he would have pried open the coffin. How could he wait so many years?
So what is his purpose?
Release the Yin Yang zombie and watch her kill people for fun?
I couldn't figure it out. On the way back, I kept thinking about it. When the tricycle stopped, I realized that I had arrived at the door of my house.
After Coffin Yang stopped the car, he ignored me and entered the house on his own.
I knew that he was angry with me, angry that I didn't firmly believe in him.
To be honest, I was wronged. How could I, a ten-year-old child, think about everything? Now that I am in this situation, I am afraid that even adults would have to be as hesitant as me, right?
But Coffin Yang and I can't continue to be at loggerheads like this. This incident was caused by me, so I have to apologize to Coffin Yang. I just hope he can forgive me.
I got off the tricycle, lowered my head, and walked into the house with a guilty look on my face.
Coffin Yang was sitting on a chair, reading a book. When he saw me coming in, he just glanced at me lightly.
"Master, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have disbelieved you. The apprentice knows that he was wrong, and he also knows that he almost caused a catastrophe and killed thousands of people. Please forgive the apprentice this time, and the apprentice promises that he will never do it again next time."
After saying that, I plopped down and knelt down in front of Coffin Yang.
Coffin Yang snorted and waved to me: "Get up! I never got angry with you in the first place. Master and disciple are like father and son, and I am your father. Is there any hatred between father and son?"
When I heard Coffin Yang say this, I also beamed, knowing that Coffin Yang had forgiven me.
He stood up hurriedly and thanked Coffin Yang.
Coffin Yang put down the book in his hand and said in a dull voice: "After I accepted the disciple, I was supposed to teach you something. After this incident is over, I followed my master and practiced for ten years. After ten years, it will be the day when you become a disciple. Maybe It may be difficult, but I will teach you everything I can, but I want you to promise that you will not go into evil ways, otherwise, your skills will be ruined as a teacher."
Naturally, I nodded repeatedly. Coffin Yang helped me solve this life-threatening matter and was my savior. Not to mention accepting me as his apprentice, even if he didn't accept me, I still have to repay him.
Coffin Yang yawned and said to me: "Before, I had doubts as to why the ghosts nowadays are so cunning. Only then did I realize that what happened tonight was caused by that old man. .”
"Master, why does the old Chinese doctor want my life? I didn't offend him!"
I took this opportunity to ask out the doubts in my heart.
Coffin Yang was silent for a long time, and then just sighed: "Alas! There are some things that you should not know about for the time being. You will understand them later."
I frowned. Coffin Yang made it clear that he didn't want to tell me. Could it be that there was something hidden in this that I didn't know about?
Coffin Yang waved his hands tiredly: "Go to bed! I haven't had a good rest these days. Have a good night's rest. Let's go to the back mountain tomorrow."
Back mountain?
I was shocked. Legend has it that there is an ancient tomb in the back hill of our village. I heard it was the tomb of a general. Normally, no one dares to go to the back hill because the old man said that there was no peace there and there were zombies...
Although I was wondering why Coffin Yang took me to the back mountain, I didn't ask. Anyway, I would know what I was doing tomorrow, so there was no need to get to the bottom of it.
After leaving the room, I went back to my room, lay on the bed, and looked at the twinkling starry sky outside the window. I had a lot of worries and worries. I didn’t know what tomorrow would be like.
The next morning, Coffin Yang woke me up early and asked me to pack my things and prepare to go to the back mountain.
I walked out of the house and saw a lot of paper money, as well as white wax, ink fountain thread, copper coins and other things placed in the compartment of the tricycle.
Seeing this, I was also very confused. I knew the ink-tread copper coins, and these two things were evil spirits. Now Coffin Yang prepared these and took me to the back mountain. Could it be that he wanted to take me to catch zombies?
I asked about the doubts in my heart. Coffin Yang gave me a blank look and told me not to think blindly about what I was going to do this time to drive away tigers and devour wolves. It would not be that easy for the old Chinese doctor to kill me. As long as he went to the back mountain , there must be no return.
I have also watched the Three Kingdoms, so I naturally know what it means to drive away tigers and devour wolves. Isn’t this just asking me to be used as bait to lure out zombies and let them fight with the old Chinese doctor?
When I thought about this, I naturally didn't want to do it, because it was too dangerous for me, and there was also a lot of risk involved. If there was even the slightest mistake, I would be dead.
And Coffin Yang didn't tolerate me, he just picked me up and threw me into the carriage. Just like that, against my reluctance, the tricycle drove towards the back hill...
