Volume 1 Chapter 82: Sun at the Midpoint
This thing was what Qingzi used to seal his own coffin. It was the Taoist holy object that could suppress evil spirits as mentioned by Uncle San and Dead Face. It should be no problem to use it to suppress this little corpse evil spirit.
After lying on the ground for a while, I finally regained some strength. I didn't know if the burial pit was broken after being sealed by the Qinglong evil nail. Seeing that it was getting late, I hurriedly urged Fatty to get up. The two of us worked together to lift the child's corpse to a place where the rope could reach, tied it up with the rope, and then Fatty went up first, he pulled the rope from above, and I held the corpse from behind. The two of us worked together and finally carried the body out.
Then he quickly gathered some dry firewood and leaves from all around, which had been dried out by the scorching sun, and took out the remaining kerosene balls from his bag and piled them on the body. The sun was about to reach the zenith, and it was almost noon!
The fat man was about to light the fire, but I stopped him. He took a knife and cut his finger, dripping blood onto a piece of granite under the body, then took out a Five Emperors Coin from his bag. He silently chanted a spell in his heart, bent his finger and flicked it, hitting the spot where the blood was. The Five Emperors Coin stained with human blood spun around, igniting a ball of blue flame, which instantly ignited the oil ball, and then the dry wood and fire raged, and the body was soon engulfed in flames.
To ensure that everything goes well, I used the Five Emperors' Fire, which is a yang fire made from human blood. Coupled with the scorching sun at the time, the corpse would be burned to ashes.
When the fire was extinguished, the black ashes were blown up by the wind, and I picked up the Azure Dragon Evil-Suppressing Nail from the ashes. Although it had been melted by the fire, the nail was not damaged at all. I couldn't help but feel very lucky. Fortunately, I had a sudden impulse when I left the ancient tomb and took out this nail. Otherwise, I would really have lost my life here today.
Seeing that the child's corpse had been burned to ashes by the yang fire, he looked up and saw that the sun had almost reached the zenith. He couldn't help but feel frightened. He didn't know whether the six people in the funeral home could be saved, so he picked up the iron cage and ran towards the funeral home.
"Hey, my dear Brother Lu, please at least let me catch my breath!" I heard the Lion Head howling behind me, but after hearing the footsteps, he still followed me.
After climbing through the iron gate and stepping onto the solid ground, he found that the energy inside had not yet recovered, but it was a little different from before. He didn't care about anything else and hurried to find Boss Ma and the others. Fortunately, they were still breathing, and the anger on their bodies was also subsiding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief , and took out some ice from the snow storage and put it on them to help dissipate heat. Fortunately, one of the six people was a ground fire, and the three north and south would confront and balance each other. As long as they were rescued before spontaneous combustion, they would not cause too much damage to their bodies.
The first person to wake up was Ma Lao Da, and the second person who woke up was somewhat unexpected, the skinny Lao Liu, followed by the muscular man, Heimao and Yan Zi. But the second grandmother had very strange symptoms, her whole body was icy cold, her body was frozen stiff, if it wasn't for her extremely weak pulse, I would have thought she was dead.
After hearing what happened, Heimao and Yanzi started cursing, while Ma Laoda had a gloomy face and sneered repeatedly. The muscle man asked me if I was injured. I said I was fine, but I sweated too much and almost got dehydrated. Naturally, I also praised Lionhead's performance.
But to be honest, this time I was really helped by this fat guy. If he hadn't come to inform me of the news about Chen Niubizi, I might not even know what happened, let alone think of ways to save people. And if it weren't for the fat guy's help in the burial pit, I probably wouldn't even have had a chance to pull out the evil nail.
When Boss Ma and the others heard what I said, they immediately expressed their gratitude to Shizi Tou profusely. All the previous dirty deeds were written off and they decided from now on that they would be friends for life.
After this, everyone was tired and hungry. I went to the kitchen to cook a few dishes and brought them out. We sat around to celebrate our survival. Lion Head said hesitantly , "That guy surnamed Chen is very vicious. If he doesn't succeed this time, I'm afraid he won't let it go."
This is what I was worried about. Although I was lucky enough to escape this time, it was also because I was lucky that I didn't stay in the funeral home last night, otherwise the seven of us would have been killed silently by him! This birdman is so fucking cruel. If we really die in this fire, then the bodies will spontaneously combust and turn into ashes, leaving no trace at all.
"Sixth brother is familiar with Captain Zhang, why don't we ask him to go and talk to him and catch that guy named Chen. This Fire has been broken, and I guess this guy won't be able to gain any advantage!" I have read Dead Face's notes before, and I know that this Fire Formation is extremely vicious and can kill people without them being seen. However, once the formation is broken, it will backfire on the people who set it up.
The fat man with the lion head slapped his thigh and said, "This is a good idea. Let Captain Zhang send someone to look for him. We are in a small place like Sanhua, so we can always find the person!"
Boss Ma smiled and said, "Let's eat first, we'll talk about this tonight."
I looked at him, but I was a little surprised, thinking that this big nose thing is the most urgent thing at the moment, why wait until the evening to talk about it? But since Boss Ma has spoken, I won't say anything more.
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, I saw that it was almost time, so I prepared to go home. Lionhead saw that I was leaving, so he followed me out and said that it was a good opportunity for us to go together.
But when we were about to leave, Yan Zi came over and asked us not to leave yet, saying that Boss Ma had ordered us to be present for an important event in the evening. I couldn't help but hesitate. Qing Zi had clearly ordered me to go home at night. If I was delayed here, I would suffer a lot. So I asked Yan Zi what the matter was and whether we could wait until tomorrow.
Yan Zi smiled charmingly and said, "We'll know in the evening. Let's go and wait."
Since it has come to this, I can only stay. Lionhead doesn't care. It doesn't matter where I am. I have nothing to do, so I went to the kitchen to cook some dishes. It's just right for us to have dinner together. As the sky got dark, I didn't see Boss Ma and the others, so I asked Yan Zi where the others had gone.
Yan Zi said they were out and would be back soon, so we had to wait patiently. I had no choice but to wait, and I visited the second grandmother several times. Fortunately, around seven o'clock in the evening, the second grandmother also woke up.
After listening to what I had said, Second Granny coughed a few times, but didn't show any emotion. Her face was calm and she didn't show any emotion. I said the food was ready outside, why don't we go out and eat something. Second Granny didn't say anything, but just let me help her walk around the room, then helped me back to the recliner to sleep, and then let me close the door and leave.
When I was about to leave, I heard her say, "When the boss and the others come back, remember to call me."
I was a little confused, but I agreed and turned back to the dining room. The food was almost cold, and Lion Head touched his stomach, probably because he was very hungry. I was wondering where the boss and his people had gone and why they hadn't come back, when suddenly I heard a sharp cry from a distance. Everyone in the hall rushed to the door to see, and saw a flash of light in the southeast corner of the sky.
I felt it was very strange and turned around to see Yan Zi, who seemed a little nervous. Just as I was about to ask, I saw Yan Zi waved at me and told me not to ask.
Yan Zi seemed a little strange tonight. Her whole body was tense, without a trace of smile on her face. She had a cold expression and looked like she was about to explode at any moment.
I didn't dare ask any more questions and waited for a long time. Then I heard a series of hurried footsteps coming from the front.
Then I saw several figures entering the house. The one in front was tall, with a single eye that looked quite strange under the light. It turned out that it was Boss Ma and his men who had returned. The thin man with long arms and legs followed him blankly. The muscular man and the black-haired man walked at the end. They were carrying a bamboo pole on their shoulders, and it seemed that they were carrying something. As soon as they entered the house, they took off the bamboo pole and threw the thing on the ground, making a "pop" sound.
