Chapter 78 Midnight Opera
I was immediately furious when I saw the two coffins.
Placing two coffins in front of Hu Zi's house was a clear curse for Hu Zi's family to be wiped out!
I immediately thought of Liu Quezi and cursed him in my heart: "Oh my god, Liu Quezi is really so arrogant. Are you going to kill Hu Zi's family?"
At this time, I heard a "bang bang" sound, and Hu Zi was holding a bloody yellow skin in his left hand and a kitchen knife in his right hand. He seemed to be crazy and kept chopping the two coffins.
Seeing this, I took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in my heart to keep myself rational.
I am sure that these two coffins were definitely placed here by Liu Quezi, and he obviously has no good intentions. He is clearly saying that he will not stop until Hu Zi's family is killed.
Hu Zi has just suffered the blow of his grandmother's death, and he has killed two yellow foxes in succession, which has caused him to be blood-thirsty and lose his mind.
If I can't keep my mind at this time, then the two of us will most likely be blinded by anger and end up being led by Liu Quezi. Not to mention, we will also most likely fall into the dead end that the Liu family has designed long ago.
And now is not the time to retaliate against Liu Quezi. The most important thing to do now is to summon the soul of Hu Zi's grandmother, relight the three lamps for her, and help her come back to life.
"Hu Zi, that's enough."
I walked to the coffins and found that one of them had been dismantled by Hu Zi. At this moment, Hu Zi was like a bull. With his bare arms, he raised a coffin board with all his strength and slammed it hard on the other coffin with a bang.
"Damn it!" Hu Zi's eyes were red, and he said angrily, "In the surrounding villages, there is only one coffin maker, Liu Guizi. These two coffins must have been made by him. Damn him, not only did he set my house on fire, but he also made my grandmother so angry that she died without even catching her breath. I haven't even gone to find trouble with the Liu family yet, and they actually sent two more coffins to annoy me. If I don't kill him tonight, I'm not going to be called Zhao!"
After saying that, Hu Zi turned around and walked towards the Liu family, holding the kitchen knife.
"Hu Zi, don't be impulsive!" I hugged Hu Zi from behind and said, "We will definitely take revenge on them, but now is not the time."
"Oh my god, isn't it time yet? What's going on? Do you have to wait until I'm killed before you can do it?" Hu Zi stared and gasped, "Qian Yu, you are my brother, I won't drag you down. If I can't come back, then you can help me bury my grandma, and you don't have to take revenge, because that's my life!"
"Don't talk nonsense." I hugged Hu Zi tightly and said anxiously, "The reason why it's not the right time yet is because the most important thing now is to save grandma."
"Save... Grandma?" Hu Zi was shocked and asked in astonishment: "Qian Yu, you, what did you say?"
I took a deep breath and said, "Don't be impulsive, I will tell you slowly."
Hu Zi nodded when I heard it. I let go of his hand after I saw that he had regained some rationality and said, "Grandma's condition is very complicated now. I can't explain it to you clearly for a while, but I may have a way to bring grandma back to life."
"But... Grandma is already dead, can you bring... the dead back to life?" Hu Zi was shocked, and then shook his head with a gloomy look: "Qian Yu, although I also hope that grandma will come back to life, but... this is impossible. When a person dies, it is impossible to be resurrected."
"It's possible, and it's very likely." I said in a hurry, "Grandma's soul has not left her body. Moreover, Grandma didn't die of old age. Grandma's soul was bewitched by a yellow-skinned snake. I once saw a secret technique in a book collected by my master. I forgot what it was called, but it can really help people return to life. Hu Zi, as long as I find that book and use the secret technique recorded in the book to call back Grandma's soul, then Grandma may be able to return to life and wake up."
"Really?" Hu Zi believed me a little when he heard me say that, and even the anger on his face faded.
"Really, believe me." I nodded heavily.
"Where is the book?" Hu Zi asked in a hurry.
I turned around and looked at the yellow-skinned corpse and the two coffins on the ground, and said, "No hurry, let's deal with these two coffins first."
Liu Quezi is not an ordinary coffin maker, but a lineage of corpse keepers. The lineage of corpse keepers and corpse chasers not only has a very deep research on corpses, but also has reached the level of mastery in the use of coffins.
These two lineages often start with coffins when they want to harm people. For example, if someone offends them, they are very likely to place a few coffins at the door of that family.
First, it can shock people, and second, the placement of these coffins may also be particular, which can play a role in destroying the feng shui of this family. Once the feng shui is bad, the fortune of this family will naturally start to go downhill.
Some coffins can attract ghosts. If they are not dealt with in time, it will be even more troublesome if they attract wandering ghosts.
Hu Zi and I took some dry firewood from Widow Wang's house and piled it on the coffins. Then we poured two bottles of strong liquor on the dry firewood and lit a fire. The two coffins and the two yellow-skinned corpses were burned.
Looking at the blazing flames, I vaguely remembered the scene when I saved Hu Zi and Hu Zi's grandmother last night. I gritted my teeth and swore in my heart that the feud with the old Liu family was over. I would never stop until I killed them.
"Qian Yu." Hu Zi called me when he saw that I was in a daze and asked, "When are you going to find the book?"
"Go back to the house first." After I finished speaking, I returned to Widow Wang's house.
I took out the brush and cinnabar, took a deep breath, and drew several talismans to ward off evil spirits and to ward off evil spirits. After drawing, I pasted the talismans on the four corners of the house, and then said to Hu Zi: "You stay here to watch over grandma. I will go home to find the book. Before I come back, no matter what you hear or see, don't leave the house."
"Okay." Hu Zi nodded heavily.
I got up and left, but at this time, Widow Wang called me. I turned around and looked at her, and saw that she actually took off the pendant around her neck and said to me: "Put this on. This is passed down from generation to generation in our family. When my mother passed it to me, she told me that this pendant can not only ward off evil spirits, but also help the wearer to turn bad luck into good luck. Put it on."
I was stunned when I heard it.
Things that have been passed down from generation to generation in a family are definitely not ordinary items, otherwise, they would not be considered heirlooms.
But Widow Wang was willing to give it to me?
Seeing my astonishment, Widow Wang put the pendant on me and said, "What are you still standing there for? Go quickly."
This pendant is very special. It is a jade pendant with excellent texture, but inside it, there is a drop of blood. The blood emits a faint red light in the jade pendant. It not only looks not evil at all, but also gives people a very peaceful feeling when they get close to it.
After wearing it around my neck, I immediately felt that the jade pendant was emitting a warm breath from time to time. 7K妏敩
The breath penetrated into my body, making me feel comfortable and all the fatigue seemed to be swept away.
"This thing...is not simple!" I was secretly surprised, then looked at Widow Wang and said, "You gave it to me, what about you?"
"What do you mean by me? I don't go out at home, but you are running around in the middle of the night. If you encounter something weird, this jade pendant can help you. Go quickly, don't worry about me." After saying that, she blinked at me.
"Okay, thank you." I cast a touching look at her, and then I didn't delay any more, I went out of the house directly and hurried to my house.
I ran all the way, running very fast, and it only took a few minutes to reach the gate of Liu Laohan's house.
I stopped and turned around to take a look, and saw that the dwarf donkey was gone. The lights in the homes of the three Liu brothers were all turned off. I didn't know if they were asleep or no one was there.
In the yard, there was still a big pot, which seemed to be stewing something. I could even smell the aroma of meat.
But the aroma of meat not only failed to arouse my appetite, but also made my stomach churn and almost vomit.
"Damn, you perverts, I will come and fuck you sooner or later, bastard!"
I spitted and ran home quickly.
I didn't turn on the lights after returning home. It's not that I like darkness, but I'm afraid that the Liu family will see the lights on in my house and know my whereabouts, and then come to my house.
I'm not afraid of them, but I will inevitably have a tangle with them. If I miss the best opportunity for Hu Zi's grandmother to come back to life, it will be a loss.
I searched in the cupboard for a while, but after searching for a long time, I still couldn't find the book in my memory.
Just when I was sweating in anxiety, I took out all the books, threw them on the ground and prepared to search again, I suddenly froze.
"What is this...what sound?" I was shocked.
It was midnight, and the whole village had already fallen into a dead silence.
However, in this dark and silent midnight, a strange sound suddenly came out.
The reason why this sound is strange is that this sound is like a person speaking with a pinched throat.
I slowly got up, then tilted my ear and listened carefully, and found that the sound was getting closer and closer to me, and it was getting clearer and clearer.
The next moment, I felt as if I had been electrified, and my hair stood on end.
Because I could tell that the sound was actually... someone singing an opera!
