Chapter 221 Keeping the Spirit (2)
Cui Xiaocan's husband, Zeng You, froze for a moment, then got up and ran over.
It was almost midnight at this time, and the temperature outside had indeed dropped sharply. The child had been squatting beside the gate of the mourning hall, shivering silently.
Zeng You came to the child, knelt down and said, "Son, why are you here alone? Where are the parents?"
To be honest, in the current environment, suddenly seeing a naked child appear, it is impossible to say that there is no palpitation.
If the child in front of him was not shivering from the cold, Zeng You would have thought him weird.
This child is exactly Yan Junze who was back-projected into the stability of the butterfly effect, and his back-projected body is exactly that of the bigger strange baby.
Zeng You took off his coat, put it on him, and said: "You come in first, I will notify the funeral home office, and I will find your parents soon."
Cui Xiaocan has already walked over with Yuanyuan in his arms. Yuanyuan stared at Yan Junze curiously with her eyes wide open.
After listening to Zeng You's words, Yan Junze nodded, then stood up with difficulty, followed them into the hall of the mourning hall, and sat down on a chair close to the wall.
Cui Xiaocan originally planned to guard the spirit here, so he specially brought a slightly thicker coat from home, and now he took it out and put it on Yan Junze's legs.
"what's the situation?"
Cui Zhiyong and Sun Guodong on the other side of the hall saw this and came one after the other.
"The kid was squatting at the door just now, shivering from the cold, and didn't see where his parents were." Cui Xiaocan said a few words, then reached out to touch Yan Junze's arm. Although the hand was a little cold, there was still body temperature. Let her relax a little.
Sun Guodong glanced at Cui Zhiyong, lowered his voice and said, "Could it be... those things?"
In this day and age, especially in a place like a funeral home, such a situation would naturally remind them of the weird.
Cui Zhiyong reached out and touched Yan Junze's forehead, shook his head and said, "No, he has temperature."
Then he lowered his head and asked Yan Junze: "Little friend, how did you get here? Where are your parents?"
"I asked just now." Zeng You said: "He doesn't seem to be able to speak, and he didn't respond to the question."
After finishing speaking, Zeng You walked outside, saying as he walked, "I'm going to the funeral parlor office."
Sun Guodong hesitated for a moment, and suddenly chased after him, and said in a low voice, "Next to the funeral parlor office is the resident office of the spirit remover. If possible, we'd better call them together."
Zeng You was taken aback for a moment, looked back at Yan Junze's direction, and nodded.
Not long after he went out, Cui Xiaocan got up and said, "Brother, look at this kid, I'm going to the toilet."
"Auntie, I'm going too." Yuanyuan said.
The two walked out of the mourning hall together.
Next to the mourning hall is the toilet, which is very convenient. Because it is in the funeral home, the toilet is lit during the day, and there is still plenty of light at night.
At this time, Cui Zhiyong asked Yan Junze a few more questions, but Yan Junze didn't answer.
Sun Guodong said: "It may be like what Zeng You said, this child may have a communication barrier."
Cui Zhiyong sat aside and stared at the child, while Sun Guodong also turned his back to the hall and looked at Yan Junze.
Neither of them paid attention to the movement in the hall at the moment.
While the two of them were talking, the lid of the ice coffin that was placed in the middle of the hall was quietly opened upwards, silently, only a large amount of refrigerated gas came out. There was an inexplicable strange smell in the gas.
Neither of them saw that the lid of the coffin was slowly opened, but Sun Guodong was closer to the direction of the ice coffin. After the refrigerant gas came out, the strange smell from the corpse and the ice coffin became stronger, which made him frown suddenly. Nose twitched, and turned away.
The scene in front of him instantly made him feel like he was in a dream. He saw that the coffin lid like a cabinet door had not only been opened, but also a terrifying white hand stretched out from the inside to the edge of the coffin. After pressing the edge, he could see the shadow of the shroud. shaking.
It seems that the people inside the coffin are crawling outside.
Sun Guodong’s position is in the same direction as the coffin lid opens, so most of his sight is blocked by the coffin lid. If he wants to see the whole scene at this time, he has to walk a little forward and bypass the coffin lid.
But he no longer had the courage, his face was pale, his eyes were straight, staring at this scene in horror.
After a while, Sun Guodong came to his senses and reached out to touch Cui Zhiyong, who was bowing his head.
"Brother...brother, your old...wife...get up...get up."
Cui Zhiyong didn't understand at first, and he was taken aback for about two seconds. He stood up, looked over, and then there was an ah, his whole body trembled, and he froze there.
Although most of the line of sight was blocked by the opened coffin lid, from their position, they could still see the shroud originally worn on Ren Susu's body moving and then completely disappearing.
Then, the back of a head with a headband was still behind the coffin lid. Obviously, the person in the coffin had stood up, but his back was facing this direction.
Cui Zhiyong and Sun Guodong stood in place, motionless, with cold sweat all over their heads, cold hands and feet, and it was difficult to breathe.
Yan Junze just silently stared at the direction in which the coffin lid opened. He was not tall enough to see the corpse completely blocked by the coffin lid.
However, he has always remembered the warning from the graph and cannot have any interaction with these people, so until now, he is just like a wooden man, not having any communication with them.
Until the moment the coffin lid was opened, Yan Junze knew that Cheng Jingting's soul might have appeared.
Sure enough, it is a resurrection of the dead!
After the third butterfly effect was stabilized, this guy became wary of his teacher Yanlong, or became very irrational when his soul was lost, so he didn't rely on Yanlong's means to resurrect his body.
Now it seems that he subconsciously wants to finish it by himself.
At this time, Yan Junze remembered the words Cheng Jingting said at the last moment when he was about to die.
And if the fourth butterfly effect is allowed to develop, it will pose a fatal threat to Yan Junze, that is to say, if it is not stopped, Cheng Jingting will definitely succeed in the future.
So this time, Yan Junze can't be careless.
In the entire hall of the mourning hall, it was deserted at the moment. After the ice coffin was opened, more cold air seemed to pour into the empty hall, making people feel chills in the bottom of their hearts.
The most important thing is that there is a weird smell from the ice coffin in this cold air, and I feel very uncomfortable after smelling it.
Neither Cui Zhiyong nor Sun Guodong moved, they just stood there stiffly.
In Yan Junze's opinion, the two of them were completely stunned. It's good that they didn't pass out now, and no one would dare to go over to have a look.
About two or three minutes later, the corpse, which was covered by the coffin cover for most of its body, suddenly moved, slowly turned sideways, left the cover of the coffin cover, and walked in the direction of the altar.
"It's moving!" Sun Guodong trembled from his throat, followed by his body shaking violently.
Cui Zhiyong was also stunned for a moment, his eyes closely followed the moving headband, and soon, his wife's entire profile appeared, and she walked out stiffly, leaving the coffin lid, and walked to the end of the ice coffin. At the altar.
Ren Susu has a thin body and a handsome appearance. She is moving with her eyes closed while wearing a shroud.
The atmosphere of the entire mourning hall seemed to drop to freezing point in an instant. Neither Cui Zhiyong nor Sun Guodong had time to pay attention to Yan Junze anymore. They just stared straight at Ren Susu, whose eyes were closed, without making a sound. Dare to send it out.
Ren Susu's shroud looks very fit, and she wears a flower-shaped headband. She looks like a person in ancient times, giving people a very unreal feeling.
She walked to the altar and stopped. After a few seconds, she stretched out a hand that was too stiff to bend, and grabbed the candle on the far right near her.
This kind of candle is white, long and large, but the burning flame is also relatively large, and one can burn for about 40 minutes.
Ren Susu grabbed the candle and pulled it, then withdrew his hand.
Because of being in the ice coffin for a long time, her limbs were stiff and she could no longer put the candle into her mouth.
So after a short pause, Ren Susu leaned over, making a creaking sound, and finally got close to the candle, then opened her mouth and bit it off.
The candle was still burning, and the wax near the flame was in liquid form. After being bitten off by this bite, the burning flame was instantly extinguished. A large amount of wax flowed into Ren Susu's mouth, and part of it flowed along her lips to her chin, and then quickly Fast solidification.
This scene stunned Cui Zhiyong and Sun Guodong, and their bodies trembled violently.
But Ren Susu didn't stop, and continued to eat candles, as if a person who had been hungry for several days finally found food.
Yan Junze also watched this scene, suddenly realized.
Cheng Jingting is different from ordinary people. He was a spirit raiser before he was alive. He must know what he needs most when he is not stable after returning from the dead.
Now it seems that he should eat some joss sticks to stabilize the current state.
Eating the first candle quickly, the woman went to the candle in the middle again, repeated her trick, and ate the second candle one bite at a time in front of the three of them.
At this time, the chin was completely covered with wax oil, covered by a thin layer of solidified wax.
Immediately she turned around and walked stiffly towards the gate of the mourning hall.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Cui Zhiyong, who had been afraid to take any action, was a little anxious. Although he didn't know why his wife's body would "resurrect", this departure was obviously not within his expectations.
Lips moved, and a dry voice came out of his throat. Cui Zhiyong was about to call his wife's name.
At this time, Sun Guodong had already noticed that something was wrong with him, so he lowered his voice a step ahead and said fiercely: "Don't shout, brother and sister... you are no longer human, don't be stupid!"
As soon as the words came out, although the voice was extremely low, Ren Susu, who was walking stiffly, still paused and stopped.
She closed her eyes, turned her body to the direction of speaking, a pale face was completely presented in front of everyone.
The most important thing is that her mouth is full of red wax oil, like dried blood.
Didn't know who she was "looking at", but after a moment of stalemate, she turned around again and walked outside the mourning hall.
This time, neither Sun Guodong nor Cui Zhiyong spoke again. After Ren Susu's body had completely left, the two of them tiptoed over, ready to look around.
At this moment, the lid of the opened ice coffin was closed with a bang, and the loud noise in the silent night made the two of them tremble in fright, and Cui Zhiyong even jumped up directly.
The two quickly turned their heads to look.
Taking advantage of this moment, Yan Junze left the chair, got up and quickly ran out of the mourning hall.
The coat he wears on his upper body, if it is zipped up, it can already cover his whole body.
Running out of the mourning hall and looking around, the strange thing was that Ren Susu, who had just walked out of the gate not long ago, had disappeared.
same moment.
Cui Xiaocan stood outside the door of the toilet cubicle, and said to Cui Yuanyuan: "Is it okay? Hurry up, Dad is still waiting for us."
Cui Yuanyuan's voice came from inside: "Okay, I can do it myself."
After finishing speaking, there was the rustling sound of clothes being rearranged.
Cui Xiaocan pushed open the closed compartment door and said, "I'll tidy it up for you, but you haven't tied your clothes tightly every time."
In fact, she wanted to get out of here quickly.
To be honest, when going to the toilet in a funeral parlor, basically everyone feels nervous, unless there are many people.
And now it was almost midnight, and there were only two people, one big and one small, so it was impossible not to be nervous or afraid.
Tomorrow Saturday, I will try my best to increase the number of words, and I also want to save some manuscripts, but I have to work overtime on Sunday the day after tomorrow~~o(>_<)o~~ crazy !
