Chapter 27 The House is Clean
I looked at my cousin and I knew he was going to teach me everything he had learned.
I don’t know why, but I suddenly felt a little excited.
If I have to follow my cousin in the future, it would be a good thing for me to learn more.
This is probably what it means to love what you do.
I stood next to my cousin and he handed me a handful of incense and asked me to help light it.
I lit the incense and continued standing.
My cousin was beside me, reciting the formula softly.
His eyes indicated that the longer I was with him, the more tacit understanding we had.
I understood what he meant. He probably wanted me to repeat it word by word.
Gradually, I began to understand his usual process.
After lighting the incense, we will start chanting the mantra.
Then, make a seal with both hands.
“Look,” my cousin pointed with his chin as he looked at the bones.
Following my cousin's gaze, I saw long, straight black hair sticking out from the pile of bones.
I didn't know if I was seeing things, I just stared at it without even blinking.
The hair, like a bonfire, kept growing upwards.
But due to the limited length of hair, after reaching the top, it keeps wanting to climb upwards.
"Inside here is the child's skull."
My cousin frowned and sighed.
what is this?!
Could it be that Uncle Wu’s old house is the Feng Shui treasure land of this village?
Although I have dealt with these things a lot, I still can't help but tremble.
Now I can no longer tell whether I am scared or nervous.
"Don't panic. It's just that the resentment is too strong. The girl died with her eyes open. Let's try to save her soul, but to be honest, I don't really understand."
As my cousin spoke, he began to recite the formula frantically.
I knew that at this point he could no longer teach me anything and he had to handle this matter alone.
He recited the formula faster and faster, and in the end I couldn't hear what he was saying at all.
But it's strange, the hair looked a little wild at first, but after my cousin recited the mantra, it slowly calmed down.
"No one wants this to happen. If you can follow my salvation scriptures, you may be able to return to the path of reincarnation. Let go of this world, and let go of yourself ."
My cousin suddenly said this and I was a little confused. I didn't know who he was talking to.
But when I looked at the pair of white bones, I found that the color of the bones had gradually turned yellow.
What does it mean?
Not long after, the pile of hair slowly returned to the pile of bones and could no longer be seen.
"Sun Ming, help Wen Jie and open the coffin lid."
Sun Ming had been watching nearby. When he heard the watch asking him to open the coffin lid, he was so frightened that his whole body trembled.
“This is not good…”
He hesitated and didn't want to help.
I knew this matter had to be resolved, even though I didn't really want to touch the coffin.
So I took two steps forward and tried to open the coffin lid by myself.
But the coffin lid is made of solid wood, and I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but I always feel that it is bigger than an ordinary coffin, so it is particularly thick and heavy.
Seeing that I really had no choice and my cousin was also busy, Sun Ming began to fall into deep thought.
"Hurry up and go over to help. You have a positive fate, so you will never get involved with any unclean things. And you have to live in this village forever. If this matter is not resolved today, people may die in the village tomorrow. You can do whatever you want. Anyway, we can just leave and the village is yours."
Seeing that he was afraid, his cousin did not force him, but laid out the pros and cons in front of him.
He thought about it for a while, and seeing that I was trying desperately to open the coffin lid, he gritted his teeth and ran forward to help me.
It's easier to get things done with more people. We two grown men had a lot of strength and we opened the coffin lid directly.
A smell of rotting flesh wafted from the coffin lid. The smell was so unpleasant that Sun Ming ran to the side and vomited while holding onto the wall.
I held back the stench, covered my nose and leaned forward.
There was nothing in the coffin except a piece of rotten meat. At the moment, it was impossible to tell whether it was human flesh or the flesh of some other animal.
I just turned to look at my cousin, wanting to ask what was going on, but he shook his head at me, signaling me not to care so much.
"Put that pile of bones in the coffin."
After saying this, my cousin started reciting the formula and performing the procedure.
I didn't dare to delay, so I quickly ran to the bones and put them into the coffin piece by piece.
I had only put in a few pieces when a puff of black smoke suddenly came out from the pile of bones.
There was a vague face in the black smoke, just like the one seen in Boss Jin's house.
Before I could react, my cousin hurriedly ran to me, grabbed me and pulled me behind him, then he took out a Taoist talisman from his cloth bag.
After the Taoist talisman was burned, the cloud of black smoke dissipated with the wind.
My cousin was already sweating profusely at this time. He didn't say anything more to me and just helped me put all the ribs into the coffin.
I was just about to ask what to do next when he walked to the side with his cell phone and started calling someone. I could only stand there waiting for him to come back.
Not long after, he found some useless wooden boards in the house and placed them next to the coffin.
"Help me light the fire and burn this coffin."
His tone was firm and I didn't dare to refute him.
But Uncle Wu’s old house was mostly made of wood, and the coffin was so big that once it started burning, the fire would probably be quite big.
"I know what you're thinking, but we can't wait any . Burn the coffin quickly. It will be troublesome when daybreak comes."
Seeing that I was hesitating, my cousin's tone became heavier and his eyes became more serious.
I didn't dare say anything else. Since he said so, I could only do as he said.
I took out the lighter we used to smoke, and found some old newspapers nearby, stuffed them directly onto the edge of the wooden board and lit it.
The material of this coffin is different from the ones we usually see. When it burns, the fire spreads very quickly.
I looked at the raging fire and felt panicky.
But I wasn't afraid of the old house catching fire, but rather a feeling that I couldn't explain.
Normally when burning wood, the smoke is thick black smoke, but for some reason, this coffin emits white smoke when burning.
My cousin heaved a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off his face: "This room is clean now, but..."
I looked at my cousin and began to feel uneasy.
