Chapter 28 Carrying the coffin to block the water
The yin energy in my hand poured into the incense burner continuously, and the sound of water came from the burner.
Just a moment later, the sound of water, like the crashing waves on the shore, came from a distance.
Old Liu Tou was shocked: "Mr. Li, let me go out and have a look!"
I heard Old Liu Tou bring a ladder and climb to the roof. After a while, I heard Old Liu Tou shout: "Mr. Li, it's not good, the water ghosts are attacking the village. The water from the river is rushing into the village."
ah!"
As I listened carefully, I realized that the sound of water outside echoed the movement in the incense burner. Every time the Yin Qi in the furnace sounded, the sound of water outside became more violent.
Not only did I not stop, I also used my strength to press the Yin Qi towards the incense burner again.
Old Liu Tou's voice changed even as he shouted: "Mr. Li, all the water ghosts have arrived at the entrance of the village."
"Don't worry about it! It can't get in!" As soon as I finished speaking, the Yin Qi in my palm exploded, speeding up the filling of the incense burner.
The sound of water rising up outside, and the shrill cries of ghosts were like a military charge, charging towards the entrance of the village.
Soon after, I heard the screams of ghosts coming from the entrance of the village - the ghosts were blocked.
As soon as I had this idea in my mind, the Yin Qi condensed into liquid in the incense burner was like boiling ice water, with bubbles rolling and boiling. However, not only could I not feel any heat around the incense burner, it even felt biting.
of coldness.
I asked in a deep voice: "How are the ghosts attacking the village outside?"
"You're not retreating!" Old Liu Tou said with a trembling voice: "It's so scary. Those ghosts are crazy and rushing towards the village desperately. The water is almost reaching the entrance of the village."
I asked again: "Is your house flooded?"
"It has been flooded for a long time, and the roof is gone! Mr. Li, let's go!" After Old Liutou shouted, the sound of gongs came from the roof.
Is it Old Liu Tou who is beating the gong? He is summoning the villagers!
After a while, I heard Old Liu shouting at the top of his lungs: "Young and old men are all going to the entrance of the village to block the water. Zhao Zhuang, carry my coffin!"
When I looked up at the door, several young men had already rushed to the yard carrying a coffin. Someone strode to the front of the house, knelt down with a set of shrouds in his hands, and held it high above his head.
Old Liu Tou jumped down from the roof, picked up the shroud and put it on himself: "Mr. Li, when I leave, someone will have to block the water when the ghost comes in. Tomorrow morning, you can take the old and young men and leave! Go to the back mountain
, you can get out there. Don’t go to Qiancun, and don’t touch my coffin.”
Old Liu was holding the edge of the coffin and was about to jump inside. But I said in a deep voice: "No need, there are people ready to block the water. Why are you jumping?"
"What do you mean?" When Old Liu suddenly turned his head, I pointed at the coffin in the yard: "Use it!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the lights in the room dimmed slightly, and the flame on the oil lamp slowly went out as if it was being suppressed by someone's hand.
The moment I turned my head, the last light from the oil lamp went out instantly, and the whole room became pitch black.
At the same time, the coffin in the yard shook several times. The coffin lid, which was nailed shut by nails, shook several times from bottom to top. The seven coffin nails were pulled out by inches, and the coffin was several inches thick.
The board was forced to open a gap while making strange creaking sounds.
The corpse's hands also stretched out from the cracks in the coffin, and their fingers stretched upward to hold the coffin board.
As soon as the opponent's fingers tensed up, I was already holding the incense burner and breaking out of the window.
The glass shattered by my palm was like snowflakes flying in the air. I was already passing through the crystal sky, and stepped down on the coffin board with both feet.
After a loud crunching sound was heard in my ears, several severed fingers flew from both sides of the coffin several meters away, and a scream that did not sound like a human voice suddenly came through a layer of coffin boards.
My feet sank again, leaving two footprints on the coffin. The wood chips I stepped on bounced around my feet, and the body in the coffin became motionless.
I said in a deep voice: "Pick up the coffin and go to the entrance of the village, quickly!"
Old Liu Tou looked at me for a few times and then shouted in a hoarse voice: "Carry the coffin and send Mr. Li to the entrance of the village!"
The man named Zhao Zhuang led others to set up the coffin, carried it on his shoulders and walked towards the entrance of the village. I stood on top of the coffin with the incense burner in one hand and a knife in the other, raising my eyes to look towards the entrance of the village.
As Old Liu Tou walked, he cried and said: "Mr. Li, if I, Old Liu Tou, don't die this time, I will definitely set up a memorial tablet for you! You are Mr.... Mr. Big..."
Old Liu Tou thought I was going to use him to block the village entrance, so he cried incoherently all the way. I didn't have the heart to explain anything to him, so I could only let him cry all the way to the village head.
The coffin was moved to a place about fifty meters away from the entrance of the village, and I could already see the surging river.
Although the force of the river was terrifying, it could not cross the range of the big tree at the head of the village.
The branches on the trees danced wildly in the cold wind, and the white waves rushing towards the entrance of the village continuously slapped the tree trunks, but the roots of the big tree remained motionless.
The white waves are fierce but difficult to cross the thunder pool.
I said solemnly: "Carry the coffin forward!"
The legs of the people carrying the coffin were obviously weak, and the coffin under my feet was swaying from side to side like a small boat.
