Chapter 037
In my dream, I originally thought that the figures coming to the funeral were all neighbors on all sides, but now I see that they are all ghosts!
I shouted to my mother, and she turned around and glanced at me indifferently.
I asked her what she was doing and why she was putting me in the coffin?
She looked very cold, and after a moment's silence, she said, "Sleeping in a coffin is like holding a funeral. Xiaoxi, from today on, you are dead!"
My heart sank. Even after going through so much, I never expected my mother to say something like this.
Today is my funeral and I'm going to die? Does that mean it's all over?
When I thought about it, I calmed down. I had thought about committing suicide before, and I had no intention of living. But I was persuaded to come back by a stranger, Wang Ge.
He is dead, but he is still alive as a human being. I am alive, but everyone around me wants me to die.
Even my best friend and my mom!
But! I can't understand why. I had a good life, but it turned out like this.
I turned to look at Lin Tian and asked him, is there really something wrong with you, or are you pretending to be like this to deceive me?
Because he released the ghosts in the ghost mound, all our plans were ruined. It was also because of this that Tintin lost his life!
Lin Tian ignored me. He just glanced at me casually and turned away.
I was about to scold him, but my mother suddenly said, "You don't have to call him that, he is not Lin Tian."
I was startled and couldn't help but look at him, but apart from the weird smile on his face, he was no different from Lin Tian. If he wasn't Lin Tian, then who was he?
My mother walked to the side of the coffin and glanced at the shadow girl who bound me. Then she said, "They are all ghosts who are loyal to me. I sent the shadow girl to you."
She paused and continued, "These are all things I had arranged before I died." At the funeral, a ghost named Parasitic Grass lived in Lin Tian's ear. He is a ghost that grows in the ear and can control people's thoughts and actions. The person you see now, although he has Lin Tian's body, he is not Lin Tian.
Only then did I realize that all of this had been arranged since my mother's funeral, or even before my mother died .
I looked at her in disbelief and said that I had met my uncle before and he told me...
My mother immediately interrupted me and said, I know you met him and what you said, but Xiaoxi, there is a powerful person behind him. You must stay away from him in the future!
I sneered and said, "Is there any future for me in my current state?"
My mother looked at me again and didn't say anything. The snake-bone woman came up, laughed strangely, and told my mother that the time had come.
My mother nodded, and suddenly shouted to the ghosts around, "Open the coffin and start the funeral!"
The sound of gongs and drums became louder and louder. I felt the coffin shake as if it was being lifted up.
I looked out and found that the ghosts around me had formed a line and were walking out of the old house one after another.
I was sleeping in a coffin, carried by four men whose shadows were like mist, and slowly walked out of the house.
The road was still filled with fog, and the houses on the street were a little unclear. I heard a deep voice at the front of the team repeatedly shouting, "Yin people, please let me pass, strangers, please leave!"
What was flying in the air were all paper money, and a lot of it fell into the coffin. The procession was so majestic that it seemed to be singing a soul-calming ballad to the sound of gongs and drums, which was very solemn.
But I didn't have the energy to listen carefully now, my mind was full of how to get out of this coffin. I didn't know if there would be pedestrians seeing this scene in broad daylight. Maybe they couldn't see these ghosts, but they should be able to see Lin Tian and me, as well as this coffin floating in the air, and they would probably be scared to death.
But no matter how I struggled, my hands and feet were tied tightly by the shadow girl, and I had no chance of escape.
I could only continue to watch the team marching forward. My mother and Lin Tian walked on my left and right respectively. The road seemed very long, so long that I couldn't see the end.
The fog around us became thicker and thicker, and even the houses on both sides could no longer be seen.
I just felt that the road ahead seemed to exist and not exist, as if I had seen it somewhere. I thought about it for a while and was suddenly shocked. I had been to this place when I was possessed by the headless female ghost before.
Tintin also said that this is the road to the underworld!
I was actually carried to the underworld by this group of ghosts! Is this how I became one of them, and I can never go back!
But I am still breathing, my heart is beating, my body temperature is high, and I am still alive. I am getting more and more nervous, I don't know if there will be ghosts and soldiers from the underworld like in the stories.
But after the team walked for a while, they suddenly stopped.
I looked around vaguely, but it was so foggy that I couldn't see the environment clearly, and I didn't know where exactly I was.
The ghosts in front all surrounded them, screaming in a sinister way, which was extremely scary.
My mother waved her hand and suddenly shouted, "Lower the coffin and bury it!"
The coffin I was lying in shook again and slowly fell down. It actually fell into a dug pit!
All the ghosts were looking down at me from all sides. As soon as the coffin landed on the ground, some dirt fell in from both sides.
My heart was in my throat, my hands and feet were shaking uncontrollably, and I realized that I seemed to be buried alive!
I shouted to my mother in surprise, but she didn't even look at me. She just glanced at Lin Tian beside her and said, "Blood sacrifice!"
Then "Lin Tian" walked over to me with a smile, stood in front of me, and suddenly took out a sharp dagger from his bag. I thought he was going to stab me to death with the dagger, but he pulled up his sleeve and cut his arm with a slash. The wound was more than ten centimeters long.
I looked at him in horror, but there was no pain on his face. He still smiled coldly, raised his hand and waved it, and Lin Tian's blood splashed all over me!
I screamed in fear, but he was bleeding more and more, Lin Tian's face turned pale, and the dagger in his hand suddenly fell. I saw his body sway, and a black worm suddenly crawled out of his ear.
I saw it very clearly. The insect looked like a centipede, but it had a human-like face . As soon as it crawled out, Lin Tian trembled and fell into a pool of blood!
His blood was still flowing, and I kept shouting Lin Tian's name, but he fell to the ground and didn't respond at all!
Although he was less than a meter away from me, I just couldn't touch him! I tried to move my body to crawl to his side, and the veins on my hands were bulging, but my mother didn't give me this opportunity. I heard her say, "Close the coffin and bury him!"
I looked at her in disbelief. Her face was expressionless and cold as ice. I couldn't understand why the her death, and even buried her own son alive!
I yelled at her and asked her why over and over again!
She didn't answer, but suddenly took out a box, the one that contained the blood amber before. She took the blood amber in her hand and suddenly threw it into the coffin, saying, "Take good care of the blood amber, don't let others take it away!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the ghosts who had been carrying the coffin suddenly came up, picked up the coffin lid, and closed it with a bang!
My eyes went dark and I couldn't see anything. Suddenly, my hands and feet were loosened and no longer restrained. I tried my best to pull back the lid of the coffin, but it seemed as if the lid was nailed shut and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't move it even a bit!
I heard some small noises outside and knew they were covering the coffin with soil. I became even more panicked! I cursed, used my hands and feet, and even banged my head against the coffin lid.
The noise outside gradually became quieter, and finally nothing could be heard.
I don't know how much time has passed, but I can feel that the coffin is getting more and more stuffy, and the oxygen I can breathe is getting less and less. My breathing is becoming more and more difficult, and even my consciousness is beginning to blur...
I have never felt so uncomfortable before, not even when I was almost suffocated by the ghost before. There was very little oxygen left in the coffin, and I was sweating all over. I couldn't see clearly and could only hold my throat tightly with both hands. This situation lasted for a short time, until I opened my eyes again and found that I was no longer in the coffin.
I stood on the foggy road, with nothing in front of me or behind me. It was extremely quiet and mysterious, and I couldn't see anyone. But I seemed to know what to do, and I walked unconsciously towards the depths of the road. It seemed that there would be a destination for me there.
I knew I was dead, all the wounds on my body had healed, and my clothes were clean without a single stain.
I thought to myself that perhaps this was a kind of relief.
But this state didn't last long, maybe two minutes or less. My concept of time was already a little fuzzy, but I had just walked a short distance when I heard someone calling me from behind.
The voice was somewhat ethereal and turbid, and it was even impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.
I turned back in surprise, but at this moment, the fog around me suddenly swirled, like a whirlpool, sucking my body in violently. I was yanked by the force, and my eyes suddenly opened, only to find that the surrounding environment had changed.
The world I saw in front of me was a little blurry, but I could feel the sunlight shining on me, bringing a little warmth. I could even smell the fragrance of the earth.
When my eyes adjusted to the current environment, I realized that I was still lying in the coffin, but the grave had been dug up and the coffin lid had been pried open. I felt like, as people often say, I had walked through the gates of hell.
But I don’t know whether I am a human or a ghost now. Although I am breathing, have a heartbeat, and even have body temperature, I cannot be sure what kind of existence I am.
