Chapter 237 Opening the Coffin
Chen Huaixiu calmed down and then turned back to the town. However, he did not go home, but walked straight to the Shen Family Ancestral Hall located on the north side of the street.
It was getting dark now, and the old servant of the Shen family who was guarding the ancestral hall lit a white lantern and picked up the door lintel and hung it.
Then he saw the head of the family appear at the gate, and the old servant quickly saluted and said, "Madam, why did you come here so late?"
"I want to accompany him here tonight." Chen Huaixiu said lightly, and walked straight into the ancestral hall.
The thick-browed woman stood up and said to the old servant sternly: "If I have me here, you can clean up and go home."
The old servant almost never rests all year round, and it is natural for a rare holiday to receive a general amnesty, and he thanked the thick-browed girl without any trouble.
He was not worried about the safety of the ancestral hall at all. First, Haisha Town is all his own people, and he doesn’t pick up the leaves on the road and don’t close the door at night. Second, the strong-browed girl has strong yang energy, and one can beat him ten, so what’s there to worry about?
The main hall of the ancestral hall enshrines the rankings of the ancestors of the Shen family. Behind the main hall is a black velvet curtain, and behind the curtain is a golden nanmu coffin. In front of the coffin is a fruit incense burner. The cigarettes in the stove have been destroyed and all the fruits are shriveled.
Chen Huaixiu took out a handkerchief to wipe the incense table clean and lit it again. Then he walked around the incense table, held the coffin, and shed tears.
"If you know, don't blame me. If you blame me, blame you for dying early. Leave me alone to support your Shen family's door." She looked at the things and was sad, and she was ashamed and said softly as if she was crying.
"If you can't figure out how you died, the Shen family will still have to die. I have no reason to avenge you."
As she spoke, her expression gradually became firmer, but her voice became more and more vague: "This matter is settled, you are not allowed to make trouble later. You owe me a thousand words, you know?"
~~
In that room, Guo Donglin was still waiting for the news anxiously.
If Xu Liu hadn't warned first, he would have gathered his subordinates and prepared to silence Chen Huaixiu's house at night.
Finally, Guo Qilin, sweating profusely, ran back and shouted happily: "Let's go, Li Shizhen is gone!"
"Oh, really?" Guo Donglin grabbed his brother's wrist and asked tightly, "Did you see it with your own eyes?"
"No, the woman personally sent him to the boat and wiped a lot of tears on the dock."
"Wipe tears?"
"I heard what they meant, that boy was helpless." Guo Qilin said with gratitude: "I sent Li Shizhen away, and the woman went to the ancestral hall again, hugging her devil husband's coffin and cried."
"Oh, so she accepted her fate?" Guo Donglin looked happy.
"She doesn't accept her fate. Could it be that she let her devil husband come out and speak for her?" Guo Qilin sarcastically and said with some concern:
"The only question now is whether Li Shizhen told her that the kid was poisoned."
"That has nothing to do with me." Guo Donglin smiled with relief:
"That woman is smart and will not stop placing this matter anymore... When the child dies, I, an outsider, will be the leader of the gang, which is most beneficial to her. If it were someone from the Shen family, who would take her as the widow of the leader seriously?"
"Ah, this is true." Guo Qilin suddenly realized and couldn't help but say happily: "Now my brother's position as the leader of the gang is completely firm!"
"Hahahaha, when did my seat be unstable?! It's just that the woman refused to appoint and was struggling to death." Guo Donglin grinned, and a flash of heat flashed in his eyes:
"As soon as the child dies, I will propose marriage to her to see if she will refuse this time!"
"That's definitely not to refuse. Isn't it just saying goodbye to her devil husband today? I've brought him a cuckold in the future, but I dare not go again." Guo Qilin laughed shrillly.
"I'm afraid that the dead ghost's coffin board will not be able to suppress it tonight!"
"Seeing through it, don't say it out loud!" Guo Donglin couldn't help laughing.
~~
In the middle of the night, a ship with a sand boat lantern hanging on the dock.
The gang members at the dock rubbed their sleepy eyes and looked forward to check it out, and saw that it was the thick-browed man beside his wife.
"Brother Xiaohu, have you just returned?"
"Mrs. I dare to cheat and cheat?" Xiaohu, a thick-browed man, threw a bag of wine to the gang members.
"Just drink less and drive away the cold, don't mislead things."
"Hey, thank you Master Hu, don't worry, you can't drink much." Several gang members stared at the wine bag and couldn't move it away.
No one noticed that there were still a few new faces who followed Xiaohu off the boat.
That was Li Shizhen, Zhao Hao, Gao Wu and others who were replaced by the sand boat gang blue short fight.
After leaving the brightly lit dock, everyone's hearts were finally put back on their stomachs.
The life of the Sand Boat Gang is not good. Apart from the dock, there are not many lights on the road in the middle of the town. It is dark and there is no need to worry about others recognizing them.
Along the way, I met two teams of patrolling the night, and were easily messed up by Xiaohu. Everyone came to the Shen Family Ancestral Hall in Zhenbei without any obstacles and knocked on the door knocker.
"Who?" The voice of a thick-browed female tiger girl immediately sounded inside the door.
"I." Xiaohu responded.
At the sound of the door, a crack was opened, and everyone went in one after another. Hu Niu poked her head out and looked around. Seeing that no one was following her on the long street, she retracted her neck and closed the door.
~~
The thick-browed man was guarding the door, and Hu Niu took Zhao Hao and Li Shizhen into the Shen Family Ancestral Hall.
Looking at the gloomy ancestral hall, Mr. Zhao felt a little creepy. He quickly stolen the tablets respectfully and said:
"Don't blame anyone for any ghosts, it's okay to be accustomed to you. They are all doing things for your family, don't make a mistake in good people."
Li Shizhen was stunned when she saw it, thinking that why is the leader of the Science Sect more superstitious than me?
"Where can you sing a song when you go?" Mr. Zhao smiled embarrassedly. Science is not afraid of ghosts, but scientists are afraid of ghosts, which is reasonable.
Everyone turned behind the curtain. Chen Huaixiu had already calmed down and pressed his hand on the coffin board and said, "The seven descendants have already set off, so I'll bother you."
Li Shizhen nodded and became fully armed with Zhao Hao again.
Chen Huaixiu came to the southeast corner of the mourning hall and used a fire pot to burn paper money, which meant to soothe the dead.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew in through the gap in the curtains, almost extinguishing the candles on the altar.
The ignited paper money was rolled up again and whirled in the air, before the ashes fell on the coffin board.
Zhao Hao and Li Shizhen were holding their hands and wearing gloves. Seeing this, they were almost scared to kneel on the ground together.
"This is too evil..." Old Li, who did not believe in evil, couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Mr. Zhao wanted to say that we should just dodge, but he was so scared that he couldn't even speak.
Chen Huaixiu stood up calmly and said to the two: "The deceased husband agreed to open the coffin, don't worry, you two."
Mr. Zhao looked at the woman in surprise and his evaluation of her was a little higher.
Seeing that the weak woman was so bold that the two men could not be cowardly, they tried hard to lift the coffin board down and put it aside.
Fortunately, there were no zombies in the coffin, and there were no lifelike mummies, only a slightly black bone colony.
There were also clusters of black and bright spots on the thoracic vertebrae of the bones...
