Chapter 60 The jar is too heavy
After discussion, the children's families decided to take the children back to their ancestral grave.
Last night, my cousin and I cleared away the evil energy in the school , so basically there won’t be any problem starting the construction in the school.
My cousin calculated the auspicious date and the best time to start construction is tomorrow morning at nine o'clock.
This is a good thing for us.
After all, we haven't slept for a day and a night, and there have been a lot of things to do in the past two days. Once we get busy, we have even less time to sleep.
Since the construction doesn't start until tomorrow morning, I can get a good night's sleep tonight.
After finishing my meal, I took a shower in the bathroom of the construction site dormitory, and fell asleep as soon as my head touched the pillow.
Although I sleep a lot, my sleep quality is not very good.
I had a dream all night in which a woman gave me a warning.
But I couldn't hear what she said, I could only see her pointing at me and her mouth opening and closing.
"Wen Jie, Wen Jie?"
My cousin's voice rang in my ears, and I slowly woke up from my dream.
I looked at my cousin, and he looked at me with a worried look. I guess I was talking in my sleep and he heard it.
"Is everything okay?" My cousin's tone suddenly became serious.
Only then did I realize that he had just called my full name. He usually called me Xiaojie.
I shook my head: "It was just a dream, a nightmare, is it okay?"
I rubbed my face, threw back the quilt and got dressed.
"What did you dream about?" My cousin followed me.
I turned my head and looked out the window. It was almost dawn.
"I don't remember much. A woman was bossing me around. It was very strange. There were also many scattered scenes. I don't know what they were."
After listening to this, my cousin didn't say anything else. He just stood beside me, thinking.
After eating in the cafeteria, we prepared the things we needed in our treasure bags. It was almost nine o'clock, and the construction team should have gone to the school to start work.
The school part is relatively simple.
After they casually used a auger to drill open the school floor, we saw eight neatly laid out coffins.
The material of the coffin was quite good. After being on the ground for so many years, only the edges and corners of the coffin had begun to rot.
Although it is said that the children are being taken back to the ancestral tomb, they have been buried here for so long that if they are to be taken back, this act is called moving the tomb.
Since the grave is to be moved, according to village rules, the coffin should be opened, the bones inside should be picked out, and then placed in a jar.
The children's families had already prepared the urn and were just waiting for the coroner to come and collect the remains.
The villagers have also made it clear that they will not pay any money no matter what.
So the money issue was handed over to the engineering team again.
Hu Yue was quite generous. He gave the coroner a big red envelope. Although I didn't know how much was in it, I saw a thick stack of red banknotes.
After opening the coffin, the coroner moved skillfully and quickly put the eight children into the jar.
"It's almost time for us to go. It's almost time." My cousin looked at the time and urged everyone to get on the road quickly.
In fact, we are just cleaning the house, so there is no need to help them bury these children.
But Hu Yue attached great importance to this matter. He was never stingy as long as it was related to the school. In order to get us to help get things done, he gave us another red envelope of 2,000 yuan.
Money makes the world go round.
Since we are taking other people's money, we naturally have to do things well.
Dongjing and I stood behind my cousin. Uncle Hu led the team and we walked towards the ancestral grave together.
My cousin followed Uncle Hu and chanted scriptures, while Dong Jing and I each held a stack of paper money and scattering it as we walked.
At this time, the wind blew, and yellow and white paper flew into the sky.
I looked up and saw that the yellow and white paper blocked the sun, and I suddenly felt anxious.
I don’t know why, but I always feel like something’s going to go wrong.
Sure enough, not long after, a woman's scream was heard from the retired soldier behind him.
I looked back and saw that the parent of one of the children put the jar in his hand on the ground.
"What is this for?" I was a little confused and walked back to see her.
But she found that the vat was pressing on her hand.
"It's so heavy, I can't lift it. The tank is pressing on my hand. Please help me pull my hand out. It hurts so much."
The woman was crying and her face was full of pain.
Something must have happened.
I thought to myself that it was too late and just as I was about to reach out to help lift it, several people next to me put the jar down in the same way, saying that the jar was very heavy.
The team in front stopped, and the sky was covered by dark clouds.
My cousin looked left and right, and his face turned pale.
He reached out and touched the treasure bag, but there was nothing in it, so he looked at me and asked, "Boy, do you want to go to the bathroom?"
I was stunned for a moment, and the next second I knew what he meant.
Boy's urine can ward off evil spirits and drive away evil spirits.
He wanted to use my virgin urine to resolve this crisis.
A cold wind blew nearby, and the wind was mixed with some unpleasant smells.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
There is a foul smell here! And it is very strong!
"It's a bit troublesome..." The cousin sighed, turned to Hu Yue next to him and said, "Do me a favor, go to the village and find me an old rooster, catch the rooster and kill it in front of me, I want a bowl of chicken blood."
Hu Yue knew that this matter could not be taken lightly, so he nodded and left quickly. Not long after, he came back with the chicken.
He had a knife at his waist and a bowl in his hand.
My cousin muttered something to himself as he took out a piece of yellow paper from his treasure bag.
He was also seen painting on yellow paper with cinnabar, which meant he was going to perform a ritual.
"kill!"
Following the order from his cousin, Hu Yue raised his knife and brought a bowl of hot chicken blood to his cousin.
My cousin soaked the Taoist talisman he had drawn in chicken blood, and then took out a peach wood sword from his treasure bag.
After a while, he stuck the Taoist talisman soaked in chicken blood on the peach wood sword.
When the lighter was brought close to the Taoist talisman, it ignited instantly.
My eyes widened as I watched. How could this soaked Taoist talisman actually be ignited?
My cousin’s skills are far more powerful than I thought.
"Boy, squat down and help me burn paper."
I was afraid of delaying my cousin's practice, so I quickly squatted down and lit the yellow and white paper.
This can be considered as a bribe for those children.
Let their evil spirits reach the underworld, so that they can have the capital to get rid of the evil spirits.
In fact, there is no rule about who is better at burning paper, but I am a boy, so maybe it would be better.
