C10 Digging the grave late at night

Hearing Mr. Li's words, my grandfather turned pale with fright. If the person buried in the grave wasn't Old Ma's daughter, then who could it be? When he thought about burning paper for a dead person he did not know, he could not help but feel a sense of fear.

The work of the day had finally paid off. Before returning to the village, he could already be certain that the matter was at Old Ma's daughter's grave. As soon as he arrived at the village, he went straight to Old Ma's house and immediately slammed the table to drink: "Do you really not care about the life and death of the entire village for your own benefit?"

The old couple became displeased when they heard this. They thought to themselves, "Why did this Mr. Li come here personally?" Furthermore, he immediately shouted at us. Could it be that our family had treated him badly?

Seeing that the couple did not reply, Mr. Li said angrily, "Did you two secretly move your daughter's grave?"

Hearing this, the old Ma couple became angry and shouted, "How about moving the grave? How could our family not care about the life and death of the entire village when they moved the grave of their daughter? "

Mr. Li sighed: "I can understand you guys, moving the graves is nothing, but you guys have to find a place to move, not a place to bury someone, but an evil vein?"

When the old Ma couple heard this, they were stunned because they didn't know anything about Feng Shui at all. They hurriedly said, "You …" What did you say... I don't know anything about evil veins, so you should just go straight to the point. "

Mr. Li told the two of them everything that had happened in the village. When the two of them heard this, they collapsed on the ground and hugged their heads while crying. They did not expect that finding a good place for their daughter to be buried would lead to such a disaster.

Seeing the couple sitting on the ground hugging each other and crying bitterly, Mr. Li couldn't help but say, "I can't blame all of you for this. I can understand for my daughter's sake, but right now, the village is not peaceful, so I have to take care of your daughter's body. Even if you want to burn her, you can't stop them, because this is the fault of the two of you."

Knowing that he had committed a grave mistake, Old Ma could only reluctantly nod his head.

When my grandfather heard this, he was stunned, he could not understand what kind of evil vein it was. All he knew was that Old Ma's daughter's corpse had been moved somewhere else.

At this time, the sky outside the window had already darkened. Mr. Li was eating at my grandfather's house, and at the table, he said to my grandfather: "Don't sleep tonight, when it is 12, you must come with me. This is your first day with me."

Time passed by very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already 12 o'clock. The silver moonlight shone on the ground outside, and the miserable cries of the crickets could be heard everywhere.

In the dark night, two young men were carrying an oil lamp and a shovel as they walked along a dark mountain path. The surroundings were completely silent. It was as if a needle dropping could be heard and the sound of footsteps was particularly ear-piercing in the silent night.

Needless to say, one of them was my grandfather and the other was Mr. Li.

The two of them took advantage of the darkness of the night to go up the mountain. They were heading to the new burial ground for Old Ma's daughter's corpse, which was located at the location of the Evil Vein, the "Death Cycle." If they wanted to resolve the series of strange things in the village, they would have to flatten the grave and move the corpse elsewhere.

After about half an hour of walking, the mountain path gradually widened, and the surrounding trees and plants became increasingly sparse. Finally, they found a grave on a slightly humped mound.

Mr. Li had been here once before, so even at night he was sure it was the grave.

When my grandfather looked at the grave with the lamp, he did not see anything unusual, nor did he feel particularly afraid when he was with Mr. Li.

Mr. Li took out four white candles from his body and placed them around the grave. He also took out a stick of incense and lit it together with the candle. After that, he said to my grandfather, "Before this candle burns out, we must dig out the corpse and fill in the ground. Remember to be careful not to knock the candle over when we dig it out."

It sounded creepy to go up there in the middle of the night and my grandfather didn't dare say anything. He just nodded and started shoveling into the grave with Mr. Li.

Since candles were burning all around him, my grandfather had to dig carefully, not daring to make too much of a fuss lest he should knock them over.

Halfway through the digging, he felt as if the shovel had struck a stone. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move it even a little bit downwards. What was going on?

Mr. Li quickly lifted up the oil lamp and looked down the shovel. My grandfather also gathered around to observe and saw a green stone the size of a millstone lying there quietly.

"Grave Crushing Stone?" Mr. Li muttered to himself as he rubbed his finger on the limestone. Then he said, "No, the tombstone was placed on top of the grave. How could it be dug out of the grave?"

After thinking for a long time, he still could not come to a conclusion. Seeing that the incense was already half burnt, he decided to ignore it. He hurriedly moved the limestone away with my grandfather, then picked up a shovel and started digging.

This time, there weren't any mishaps. After digging about four to five feet deep, a black coffin appeared before their eyes.

My grandfather was too familiar with this coffin. He felt goosebumps whenever he thought about how he had slept in it for the night.

Normally, a coffin lid would be covered with nails to seal the coffin, but this coffin in front of him had marks of nails on it, but there were no nails on it.

In other words, the coffin could be opened with a single push.

"This saves us the trouble." said Mr. Lee, pushing aside the lid.

With a "hua la" sound, the red-clothed female corpse on the coffin lid came into view. The corpse did not rot, and her face could be seen clearly. Besides her face, which was devoid of any color, she was no different from a living person, as if she had not died and was just sleeping inside.

Mr. Li took out a bronze mirror and placed it at the woman's feet. He fished out a black pill from his pocket and said to my grandfather, "Open her mouth."

Hearing this, my grandfather was so frightened that he staggered. He wanted himself to pry open this female corpse's mouth? What a joke, he just kept shaking his head.

"That stick of incense is about to burn out. Don't dilly-dally any longer." Mr. Li snapped.

Seeing that Mr. Li was a bit angry, my grandfather had to force himself to reach out to break the female corpse's mouth. The moment his hand touched the skin, he felt a wave of coldness and couldn't help but shiver.

Although it was very scary, the black pill was still placed into the female corpse's mouth. After doing that, the corpse should be carried somewhere else to be buried.

Quickly filling up the soil, Mr. Li said to my grandfather, "Let's take the corpse somewhere else and bury it. No matter what you see later, just pretend you didn't see it."

My grandfather was at the back, lifting the feet of the corpse, while Mr. Li, with his back to the corpse, raised his head with his hands behind his back. The two of them worked separately, but the corpse was not heavy, so it was easy to lift it.

The two of them carried the corpse down the mountain one after the other. The location of the other burial had already been decided upon. It wasn't too far away, just ten minutes away.

It hadn't been two minutes when a cold wind blew, and my grandfather had the impression that the corpse was much heavier than before, and that she had grown fingernails.

The process of lifting the corpse was excruciating for my grandfather. The corpse became heavier and heavier, until its arms became numb from the fall. What was even more terrifying was that the female corpse's lower abdomen started to move up and down, as if it was exhaling air.

I didn't see anything. I didn't see anything. If Mr. Li hadn't told him to ignore what he saw just now, he would have already wet his pants.

Although it was somewhat terrifying, it was fortunate that the distance was not far. In less than ten minutes, they had reached their destination. A pit had been dug ahead of time, and the two of them gently placed the corpse into it.

"Meow!" Suddenly, a cat's meow came from not too far away. The sound was like thunder striking against a clear sky, scaring my grandfather. Before he could even react, a large wild cat jumped down from the tree and started circling around the corpse pit.

"Hurry and chase it away, don't let it touch the corpse." Mr. Li became a little flustered when he saw a wild cat suddenly jump out.

My grandfather hurried to chase him away, but this wild cat seemed to have developed a strong interest in the corpse. Before my grandfather could kick it, he bent down and jumped into the pit.

"Not good." Before Mr. Li could finish, the female corpse in the hole had already sat up.
