The coffin bearers had never encountered such a strange thing before, and their expressions became more and more terrified.
The next second, they looked at each other, dropped what they were holding, and said in unison: "We don't want to carry this coffin anymore, and we don't want the money. Go find someone else!"
"That's right, this matter has nothing to do with us, so don't look for us!"
As they spoke, they hurriedly bowed and begged for mercy to the dead old lady in the coffin, fearing that the "person" inside would blame them. After bowing, they looked at Zhou Liming with an indescribable look, then turned around and ran away.
Zhou Liming was stunned, and the relatives and neighbors behind him were also shocked.
How come there are people who stop carrying a coffin halfway?
Naturally, no one wants to see this kind of thing happen at this time.
Zhou Liming was so angry that he almost hit someone, but he didn't want to cause any trouble on the day of his mother's burial, so he could only suppress his anger in his heart. He quickly called the men in the village to help carry the body, and he himself was ready to carry it.
The villagers were just walking in line at the back and only heard that there seemed to be an argument between Zhou Liming and the coffin bearers, but they didn't know what exactly happened.
Seeing the coffin bearers running away, he was naturally filled with righteous indignation and hurried over to help Zhou Liming.
As a result, several people stood up one after another and prepared to lift the coffin, but they found that the coffin on their shoulders was as heavy as a thousand pounds. They tried their best but could not move the coffin at all.
Thinking of the strange expressions of the people carrying the coffin when they left just now, the villagers gradually realized what was going on.
Could it be that there is something wrong with Zhou Liming’s mother’s death?
The coffin could not be lifted no matter how many people came together, so the burial had to be put on hold.
After several elderly people in the village learned about this, they all looked at Zhou Liming with serious expressions and asked him to go and invite the master.
Even though Zhou Liming cried and explained that his mother's death had nothing to do with him, and he had never abused her, causing her to die with hatred, the facts were there. Something went wrong during the burial process, and there must have been a reason.
In the end, Zhou Liming had no choice but to hurry up and ask around, and the villagers also helped to look for him, and they finally found Lin Xi.
"Master, I swear to heaven, I have never done anything unfilial to my mother! Before she passed away, she never told me that she had any lingering wishes. I really don't know what happened!"
Because his mother could not be buried smoothly, the villagers started looking at him and his wife with strange eyes in the past two days, as if they had really done something disrespectful to his mother behind their backs.
Zhou Liming was in so much pain that he could only regard Lin Xi as his only lifeline.
Fortunately, Lin Xi took a look at Zhou Liming and knew from his face that he was not the kind of disobedient or unfilial person.
So his mother's affairs should have little to do with him.
But it is indeed abnormal for such a thing to happen during the burial process.
Just as Zhou Liming knew the rumors, either the deceased was wronged and refused to be buried, or he had regrets and was unwilling to leave.
In any case, you have to go to the scene to find out.
When Zhou Liming heard that Lin Xi was willing to go and take a look, he naturally stood up and led the way.
He drove here by himself and parked on the side of the road. After Lin Xi got in the car, he drove all the way home.
While in the car, Lin Xi took the time to send a message to Qian Duojin, asking him to bring Zhang Hejin with him in the evening, as she had to go out for something urgent and might not be able to come in the evening.
Qian Duojin could certainly handle such a small matter. He gave Lin Xi a reply that allowed her to go without worry, and then took Zhang Hejin to go somewhere else.
An hour later, Lin Xi arrived at the village where Zhou Liming lived.
It was already past five in the afternoon when they arrived at the village. From a distance, Lin Xi saw a group of people standing at the foot of a mountain in the village, and a coffin was parked near the crowd.
That should be Zhou Liming’s mother’s coffin.
As expected, after Zhou Liming got out of the car, he took Lin Xi directly over there and told Lin Xi about the current situation while walking.
Because the fucking coffin couldn't be moved, it had to be parked far away temporarily.
But during this period they were worried that something might happen, so they asked someone to watch nearby.
The rest of the people were not that scared during the day, so some relatives and fellow villagers helped to look after him, while Zhou Liming and others went to find the master.
At night, no one else dared to stay near the coffin, so Zhou Liming and others had to guard it.
Fortunately, the weather is not cold at night, so nothing will happen if you wait outside except being scared.
But despite this, Zhou Liming and his friends were still terrified every night when they thought of these strange things, and would jump up in fright at the slightest movement.
Now Zhou Liming can only pray that Lin Xi can end their suffering.
The two soon came to Zhou Liming's mother's coffin.
At this moment, the coffin lid was still tilted, but because it was only tilted a small part, it was impossible to see what was inside clearly.
Lin Xi did not open the coffin to check immediately, but walked around the coffin to make sure that there was no evil spirit in the entire coffin, only negative energy. Only then did he conclude that Zhou Liming's mother did not die a violent death, but simply had an unfulfilled wish.
If the other person died an unnatural death, not only inside the coffin, but even outside the coffin will leak out a strong evil spirit, telling others about his or her grievances.
Now that he was sure that there was no evil spirit outside the coffin, Lin Xi decided to open it.
Because at this moment the old lady's ghost is hiding in the coffin.
To find out why she didn't want to be buried and what her unfulfilled wishes were, I had to find her in person and ask her.
The next second, Lin Xi gathered spiritual power in his palm, and his palm fell on the coffin lid. Then he pushed it lightly, and the coffin lid that several young men couldn't push was pushed open.
Zhou Liming next to him was stunned!
He looked at Lin Xi's slender hands, then at the coffin lid that even a group of grown men couldn't push, and began to doubt his life.
After pushing open the coffin lid, Lin Xi looked down at the situation inside the coffin.
An old lady with a pale face was lying inside with her eyes closed. That was the old lady's corpse.
In addition to her corpse, there was also a ghost that looked exactly like her lying in the coffin.
Seeing Lin Xi, the old lady's ghost was a little surprised and asked nervously.
"Who are you?"
Lin Xi didn't answer her question, but only asked her: "Since you are already dead, why don't you bury yourself properly?"
When the old lady heard this, she immediately realized that Lin Xi was the master her son and his friends had asked to solve the "sunken coffin" issue.
After realizing Lin Xi's identity, the old lady was not so nervous anymore. Instead, she had a feeling that "she had finally waited for it".
She breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lin Xi in a calm tone, "Master, since you are here, please tell my children that I don't want to be buried with their father. Ask them to find a new place to bury me."
So this is why she didn't want to be buried.
She doesn't want to be buried with Zhou Liming's father?
Lin Xi glanced at her, confirming that this was indeed her wish, then turned to look at Zhou Liming next to him, and relayed his mother's words to him without changing the words.
After hearing this, Zhou Liming's eyes widened suddenly, and he was at a loss for words.
"Master, you said my mom didn't want to be buried with my dad, so she didn't want to be buried?!"
How is this possible!
Although his father died early, in his impression, the relationship between his parents has always been good.
Zhou Liming was the oldest among his brothers and sisters. He was eight years old when his father passed away and could remember things.
In his memory, although the relationship between his father and mother was not a passionate love, they supported each other and took care of each other and never had any conflicts.
It's just that his father was in poor health and passed away early, leaving his mother alone to raise him and his siblings with great difficulty.
When his father was alive, his mother never had any conflicts with him. It's impossible that she would still be angry with his father after his death, right?
So Zhou Liming didn't believe that his mother would be unwilling to be buried for this reason.
As for burying their mother next to their father's grave, it was a decision made by them and their siblings together.
They thought of how their mother had taken care of them alone for so many years and how she didn't have much time to spend with their father. They thought that now that they were both gone, they could be buried together so that they could take care of each other.
If ghosts really exist after death, the two of them might be able to rekindle their past relationship.
They had previously thought that this decision would make their mother feel relieved in her grave.
But now...aren't they just making things worse by doing this?
Zhou Liming spoke with a bitter face.
"Master, I absolutely don't doubt you. I just can't believe it. How is this possible?"
Seeing him like this, Lin Xi glanced at the sky. The sun had already set, so he simply opened Zhou Liming's Yin-Yang eyes and let him communicate with his mother himself.
After opening his Yin-Yang eyes, Zhou Liming saw his mother with her eyes open at a glance and was shocked!
He rubbed his eyes and looked again, and found that his mother was not resurrecting her corpse. It was her ghost with her eyes open. He breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, she was his mother. Even though she had turned into a ghost, Zhou Liming was not too scared.
Just thinking of what Lin Xi had just said, Zhou Limin immediately asked: "Mom, why do you not want to be buried? Just tell us the truth, we will definitely help you fulfill your wish! You and my dad have such a good relationship, it can't be--!"
Before he could finish his words, the old lady suddenly sneered.
"Which eye of yours saw that he and I were in a good relationship?!"
Zhou Liming was stunned and responded hesitantly.
"But you've never quarreled before..."
For a moment, the old lady didn't know whether to scold her son for being stupid or praise him for being naive.
Does not having a quarrel mean that the relationship is good?
There may indeed be couples in this world who love each other deeply and never quarrel in their entire lives.
But there is another type, which is when you are disappointed with someone and don’t want to quarrel.
Seeing that Zhou Liming hadn't reacted yet, the old lady just smiled faintly.
"Do you know why I have never taken you to see your grandparents in all these years?"
Zhou Limin subconsciously said, "Didn't you say that there's no one left in your hometown? Your grandparents are gone, so there's no need to go."
Zhou Liming was also curious about this when he was young.
Because other children around them have grandparents, but they and their siblings have never seen their grandparents.
Out of curiosity, he naturally asked his mother this question.
