Chapter 88: Injustice!
My cousin and his friends saw a cloud of white smoke slowly coming towards the store with the wind, so they stopped what they were doing.
Strangely enough, the wind just circled around the coffin and then left, and even the cloud of white smoke disappeared.
I stood up and walked to the side of the coffin, and you saw a big word written on the coffin.
"injustice"
Looking at this word, I don’t quite understand it.
"Why did you all stop doing the ritual?"
When I noticed that my cousin and Dong behind me didn't make any sound, I turned around and asked.
My cousin frowned and said, "The matter has been resolved. We also tried to bring Mr. Xie back to life, but he refused."
Refused?
Why?
My mind was full of questions, but I didn't ask them.
Because I know they are busy now and it is difficult for them to explain anything to me.
Later I discovered that there was a trick to this.
My cousin told me at the beginning that he wanted to help Mr. Xie to revive his soul because he had something else to tell me.
But now he has stopped performing rituals and has given up on resurrecting the soul because he has already explained what he needed to explain.
Obviously, it’s the word “injustice”.
When I saw this, I knew that this matter was not that simple.
The talk of bringing the old man back to life is just a cover.
Something must have happened, which required my cousin and others to take action.
I had been busy in the agency before, and he had no idea what was going on here.
"What on earth happened? You asked me to come here to be a boy, but you didn't tell me anything!"
I'm a little angry.
After all, if you want me to help, you have to tell me the general idea of the matter.
Otherwise I would lose my life and not know why.
"When we first arrived here in the evening, I found something was wrong here. Not only did the world's big brother look unhappy, but even the children looked listless. Later I found out that something went wrong here after we left yesterday."
My cousin spoke to me and sighed again.
It turns out that after we left yesterday, strange things started happening in this store.
At first, it was the children who were keeping vigil. They kept hearing a whimpering sound, but they didn’t know where it came from.
Everyone was sad because someone had died in the family. The oldest child, who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, thought that someone in the family was crying.
But the crying became louder and louder. The child walked into the coffin and listened, only to find that the noise was coming from inside the coffin.
"So what happened next?"
"What else can I say? He must have died without finishing his story, so he is still alive and ready to come back to life at any moment."
My cousin had just finished explaining to me when I heard the sobbing sound from inside again.
The coffin lid had been closed at this time. Actually, according to reason, the coffin lid should have been closed the moment it was sent out , but the young children here were only five or six years old, and they were afraid of scaring the children, so they closed the coffin lid in advance.
"It's coming again! It's this sound!" Brother Xie seemed a little panicked, he was scared.
Dong Jing was comforting him, while my cousin and I worked together to open the coffin lid.
Sure enough, Mr. Xie, who was lying inside, suddenly sat up.
My grandmother’s figure instantly emerged in my mind. When I came back from college to attend my grandmother’s funeral, she suddenly sat up and strangled me.
It was my cousin who helped me solve this problem.
So even though , I do have some experience.
"Go prepare some chicken blood for me. I'm going to help him perform a ritual."
The cousin waved at Dong Jing, asking her for help.
After Dong Jing left, the cousin walked up to Mr. Xie, bowed and said, "Sorry, I offended you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he punched Mr. Xie in the chest.
The old man suddenly opened his mouth and made a vomiting gesture, and a cloud of black smoke came out of his mouth.
I have a rough idea in my mind.
It must be this cloud of black smoke that made the old man unable to swallow.
It was this filthy thing that made the mourning hall restless.
The black smoke floated out of the window, and at this moment Dong Jing came in with a bowl of hot chicken blood.
When my cousin saw it, he quickly soaked the yellow talisman in chicken blood, then scooped up the wet yellow talisman and slapped it on the old man’s forehead.
The old man howled twice, took his last breath, and lay down again with a pale face.
"Should we tear off the talisman?"
When Brother Xie saw the talisman on the old man’s forehead, he felt a little uncomfortable.
This is normal.
Anyone who saw their deceased elders stuck with strange things would feel uncomfortable.
"This robe cannot be torn off and left in the coffin, otherwise something bad will happen to the family." The cousin said righteously.
Brother Xie was at a loss.
He believed in his cousin. After all, one should trust people when employing them. Since his cousin came to help, he should just listen to him.
It is because Brother Xie is more obedient than Mr. Zhang that my cousin puts almost all his attention on Brother Xie.
"But there is one thing I still want to say. If possible, take your children to the mountain to find someone to help."
After my cousin said this, not only Brother Xie was stunned, but even Dong Jing and I were at a loss for a moment, not knowing how to react.
"You..." Brother Xie was so scared that he didn't know how to respond.
Seeing his expression, Dong Jing and I roughly understood what was going on.
Brother Xie is in trouble.
"What do you mean?" Brother Xie avoided his cousin's gaze and pretended nothing had happened.
My cousin chuckled and said, "Your two children were just a little sick at first. In fact, they could have been cured by finding a spirit medium. It doesn't have to be a spirit medium, but just find someone to take a look. But now the problem is serious. You used your grandfather's life to fight them. The remaining life of the grandfather was taken away by those two children. Even if they were your own grandchildren, they might not be able to accept it."
Even if it’s your own grandson?
what does it mean?
So those two children are not from the Xie family?
Brother Xie could obviously understand what his cousin meant.
He was so angry that his face turned black.
"What are you talking about?!"
"You know whether I am talking nonsense or not. They are twins. In fact, it is easy to raise twins in this era. It's just that you used other means to make them your sons. This method is not unacceptable. After all, you just want an offspring. Whether your son is your own after he grows up or not, bloodline is sometimes really not that important. But your method is wrong. People are selfish and greedy!"
