So, I continued to take Yao Nan’s father’s car back to Lianghe Town...
Yao Tianlin sent me to the entrance of the ancient street where Lao Cao's coffin shop is located, opened the trunk, and opened the driver's door to help me pick up my luggage.
"Dad, you don't have to come down. I'll just get it for my deskmate."
Yao Nan got off the car with me, went to the trunk and took out the suitcase.
Then he smiled and patted my shoulder with his hand.
"Brother Xiao Wu, after you finish spending time with your parents, if you still have time, remember to come back to Lianghe Town to spend time with my sister and me!"
I also deliberately joked.
"Okay! One hundred yuan for an hour of company."
"Tsk, tsk, doesn't that mean I'm going to take care of you?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, little girl!"
I laughed and cursed, then picked up the suitcase and waved my hand.
"Okay, let's go. Text or QQ to tell us!"
"OK!"
I said goodbye to Yao Nan, dragged my suitcase and walked on the bluestone street, and soon arrived in front of the coffin shop.
He shouted while raising his legs to cross the high "corpse blocking threshold".
"Old Cao, Uncle Tiger, I'm back!"
A gray shadow immediately floated out from a coffin in the corner. It was Wang Hu.
He said in surprise.
"Brother Wu is back!"
"Yes, we haven't seen each other for half a year again. Uncle Tiger's soul has become more condensed, and he is considered a very good ghost cultivator. Now that he goes out to wander at night, he should be able to go far away, right?"
Wang Hu scratched his head in embarrassment.
"This is all thanks to Boss Cao who often gives me [Guhunxiang] to take, and also gives me guidance on my practice."
"By the way, where is Lao Cao? I sent him a text message two days in advance, saying I would be back today."
I looked left and right, but I couldn't find where Lao Cao was.
Wang Hu explained.
"Oh, Boss Cao and Daniel have gone to carry the coffin. It is said that there is a suburban village five or six miles east of the town where people are doing white things. If Brother Wu comes back, just sit down and rest for a while and wait."
I frowned slightly.
"It's afternoon now, and the sun hasn't set yet! Those who are buried at this time intend to use the last yang energy before the sun sets to suppress the corpse transformation, right? Does Lao Cao know that there is something wrong with the corpse?"
Wang Hu nodded.
"Boss Cao knew about it, but he said that the problem was not big and could be solved with preparation. The body was that of a child who fell to death. He was a little resentful, but the danger was not high."
Well……
I deliberately laughed and cursed.
"Old Cao, you know I'm coming back today, but you still rush out to do some work? If you had known, I would have asked Yao Nan's father to put me on the side of the road outside the town. Forget it, I'll put my luggage here first. Uncle Hu, please continue to guard the house, and I will go over and take a look."
After knowing the address of the village from Wang Hu, I went directly there.
Instead of taking the road out of the town, I climbed directly into the mountains and passed through the woods - it was quiet and no one was there, and the distance was short.
It is not a difficult task to use the light kung fu steps in the inner boxing method to climb mountains and ridges and go through the woods.
In less than half an hour, I arrived in the village.
I took out the Tianyuan Divine Plate and scanned it casually, and I directly found the suitable location for burying the dead child. Although Lao Cao's Feng Shui acupuncture skills are no longer as good as mine, it is still not difficult to find the appropriate Feng Shui pattern.
So, he must have chosen the same place as me.
I continued to the mountains behind the village.
Sure enough, not long after walking, I heard a loud noise in the distance.
Then I saw a group of people running towards me, with panicked and frightened expressions, and they were rolling and crawling.
"Ghost!"
"The corpse has changed!"
"Run!"
These people seemed to be part of the funeral procession—some were suona players, some were relatives, and they were all very scared.
They ran past me and stumbled toward the village down the mountain.
I quickened my pace and ran forward.
In the dim air of the evening, I saw several people fighting with a corpse wearing a black child's shroud in the mountain col not far away!
It was Lao Cao, Daniu and others.
The child corpse ghost in the black shroud is actually quite strong. Its claws are black and shiny, and they are obviously highly poisonous. His facial features were distorted, bleeding, and shrouded in a layer of black energy.
I didn't make a sound, I quickly ran closer, and then I already held a spell in my hand and punched it out.
call!
The talisman flew through the air, flew through the gap between several people and the corpse, and accurately landed on the chest of the child corpse.
It stopped moving immediately!
"Brother Cao Danniu, please get out of the way, be careful not to get hit by my spell."
I smiled and reminded, and at the same time, I played another [Evil-Breaking Talisman] in my hand...
The moment it was attached to the corpse, it immediately exploded.
There was a boom.
As the orange firelight filled the air, the ferocious corpse fell straight back - this was because the corpse's aura was dispersed by my spell.
The four coffin bearers, Da Niu and Er Gou, took advantage of the situation and lifted the poles in their hands to the joints of the child's body, and threw them up and down.
Uh-huh!
The child's corpse was thrown directly into the open coffin next to it. Lao Cao turned his hands hard and closed the coffin lid.
I walked over and stretched out my hand to push.
The coffin fell into the grave that had been dug long ago and remained motionless.
Lao Cao smiled at me and gave me a thumbs up.
"We haven't seen each other in the past six months, and our Xiao Wu has become a lot stronger! Facing such a vicious child corpse, it doesn't take any effort. Two spells are shot from a long distance in the air, and it can be easily solved."
Daniel and the four of them also nodded vigorously.
"Brother Wu is really strong! Without you, we would still have to fight this zombie for a while."
I laughed too.
"We are all old acquaintances, so don't praise it like that. It's very embarrassing. What's more, you haven't shown any real skills. You just dealt with it slowly. I watched it from a distance, even if I didn't take action, you can only take one or two at most. It can be done in minutes. If Lao Cao is willing to use his real skills, it will only take one or two rounds."
Lao Cao smiled and tapped me with his hand.
"You, you! You are so good at speaking well... With your personality, Xiao Wu, even if you don't join the Taoist world, you should be able to get along well as an ordinary person."
I chuckled.
"That's right! If one day I make a mistake in my practice and lose all my power, I will start a business and become the boss!"
We haven’t seen each other for more than half a year. When they saw Lao Cao, Dan Niu and Er Gou, they all felt friendly. They chatted casually while using a shovel to bury the coffin...
At the same time, Lao Cao also said a few words about the poor child corpse.
It turns out that the little boy in the coffin is only seven years old this year and is a left-behind child.
Both his parents work in the urban area of Chongqing City, and his grandmother is the only one who takes care of him in the village.
As a result, because he didn't pay attention while cooking, the little boy fell directly into the cellar where the sweet potatoes were stored - his head happened to hit the ground, and his neck was broken on the spot, and he could only breathe out but not in.
By the time he was finally sent to the town hospital in Lianghe Town, he was already dead.
The child's grandma cried so hard that there was nothing she could do. When my parents got the news and rushed back from the city, they were also heartbroken.
The next thing, of course, is to prepare for the child's funeral, and then find out that the child was so resentful that he had transformed into a corpse...
"well."
I sighed.
"Life is really hard. I hope I can have a good pregnancy in my next life."
