It would be a bit evil to find a coffin containing a dead person in a spooky coffin shop. Which coffin shop sells coffins and comes with a dead person as a gift? Not to mention that at this moment, this dead man doesn’t seem to be dead!
Xiao Shuai tried his best to get into Mu Yu's clothes, leaving only half of his head outside.
"He's still alive?" Long Teng stood on Mu Yu's shoulder and asked in surprise. It was much more courageous than Xiao Shuai.
Mu Yu shook his head and said: "There is no life force in the body, only a stream of Yin Qi is supporting it. He should be dead."
Mu Yu is the person who has the most say in the perception of vitality. He knows how death is reflected in a person's body, and the passage of vitality cannot be hidden from Mu Yu's eyes.
Mu Yu looked at Mr. Zhao's whole body, trying to find something special about him. Mr. Zhao is very old. The wrinkles on his face are like a puddle of mud. He still has a few small beards. The shroud he wears is very new. I am afraid it is the only new clothes he wore in his later years. There was nothing unusual except for the slight rise and fall of his chest.
"Muyu, you don't want to take off someone else's shroud, do you?" Xiaoshuai asked in disgust.
Mu Yu ignored Xiao Shuai. He didn't understand why Chen Erzhuang offered the old man's body in his shop. Why was it so weird for a dead man to offer a dead man
He carefully moved Mr. Zhao's neck, and suddenly saw two sharp blood holes behind Mr. Zhao's ears, as if he had been bitten by some monster, and the blood on the wounds had not yet solidified.
"Xiao Shuai, can you tell what bit him?" Mu Yu asked.
Xiaoshuai poked his head over in disgust and examined it carefully: "Can I use luminous pearls to illuminate it? I have to use the green light of the Shadow Sword. It will be scary to see."
Mu Yu laughed dumbly and quickly took out the luminous pearl. The soft white light immediately illuminated the entire gloomy coffin, dispelling the green light.
Xiaoshuai stared at the wound carefully, said "Hey" softly, then stretched out his little paw and pressed Mr. Zhao's forehead, then retracted his paw suddenly, and his brows wrinkled.
"What's wrong?" Mu Yu asked curiously.
"How disgusting! This old man has no brains." Xiao Shuai said angrily.
"Can you have some conscience? People are dead, and you still scold them?" Long Teng scolded.
"I mean, the old man's brain was eaten by something! After that thing eats the old man's brain, it is equivalent to the old man's brain and can control the old man's words and deeds." Xiao Shuai said He rubbed his claws on Mu Yu's body. He didn't even see it complain when he went to look for demon spirits in the monster's stomach. Now he has to wipe his hands when he touches a dead person. He doesn't know when he developed the mysophobia.
"Why are there such disgusting things?" Mu Yu also found it very difficult to accept. He would eat people's brains alive and then control them? What kind of monster is this
"Can we leave here?" Xiao Shuai shrank into Mu Yu's arms. Apart from eating to make him move forward bravely, Xiao Shuai was not interested in dead people.
"Xiao Shuai, do you know what kind of monster it is?" Mu Yu has never heard of anything that eats brains to control people.
"I forgot. It feels very familiar to me. I seem to have seen it somewhere before, but I can't remember it." Xiaoshuai muttered.
Mu Yu searched the surroundings carefully, but still found nothing unusual in the store. He remembered that the funeral Chen Erzhuang was going to arrange for was in the next village, and he felt that he had to go and see what happened.
Xiaoshuai also didn't like attending the funeral of the dead, but Long Teng told him that there would be a lot of delicious food at the funeral, so Xiaoshuai immediately became very interested.
Casting a stealth formation, Mu Yu hid in the sky above the village. It is easy to find which house is hosting the funeral, because paper money is flying all over the sky, there are so many sorrows and joys, and there are bursts of crying, it is impossible not to notice.
When Mu Yu arrived, the family was preparing for a funeral.
At a glance, he saw Chen Erzhuang walking at the front of the team. At this time, Chen Erzhuang's face was very solemn, even with a touch of sadness. This was his professional expression. Old Xu Tou once said that he had never I have never seen Chen Erzhuang smile like this.
Chen Erzhuang's body exudes a vague yin energy, which is exactly the same as the atmosphere of Mass Burial Valley. Mu Yu didn't notice this smell when Mu Yu went to his store last time. It seemed that the mysterious guy was most likely hiding on Chen Erzhuang.
The number of people attending the funeral was not that large, only about seventy or eighty. A person as old as Mr. Zhao would need the whole village to attend the funeral. However, Xinghua’s mother was obviously not as old as Mr. Zhao, but the queue was quite long. Longer.
Since the incident involving Mr. Zhao, nearby villagers no longer dare to bury their deceased relatives in the sky, but instead bury them in the mountains.
The hillside is not high, and rural people usually bury their relatives in their own fields on the mountain.
The whole funeral lasted for about two hours, and Xiaoshuai kept scolding Longteng as a liar, because it didn't see anything delicious, only some sacrifices, and it didn't satisfy Xiaoshuai at all.
Mu Yu has been paying attention to Chen Erzhuang's movements, but Chen Erzhuang did not move any hands or feet. He only did what he should do and said what he should say. There were no unnecessary movements. Even the coffin was buried in the soil. He backed away at all times and did not step forward to help. He only let his four assistants help.
The four guys didn't do much, they just picked up shovels and filled in the soil, that's all. Then Chen Erzhuang asked his men to go down the mountain and return home, leaving the sad and crying family members to stay for a while longer.
"Do you feel something is wrong?" Long Teng asked.
Mu Yu shook his head. Perhaps the biggest problem was that he didn't find anything wrong.
He followed Chen Erzhuang back to the shop. The four clerks walked directly into the backyard in silence and continued to carve wooden figures. Chen Erzhuang also locked himself in the room.
I really don’t know what he is doing alone with so many realistic hanging wooden figures in the whole room. Is he just staring at him
But after they returned to the store, the smell disappeared inexplicably.
Mu Yu pondered for a long time, and finally decided to go back and check on Old Xu Tou. After all, according to Xiaoshuai's death announcement, Old Xu Tou may not be alive for long.
Old Xu Tou was still busy in the field. It wasn't until Mu Yu called him that he quickly dropped his hoe and ran over.
"Sir? Why are you so anxious?" Old Xu Tou was smiling and full of energy. He didn't look like he was going to die tomorrow evening.
Mu Yu looked at Old Xu Tou and found nothing wrong with him.
Xiaoshuai said that the evil magic had transferred the vitality of Old Xutou to the wooden man, but Mu Yu found that the vitality of Old Xutou was still very strong. What was going on
"Old man, are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Mu Yu asked worriedly.
Lao Xutou smiled honestly and said: "I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere, but I have rheumatism again. It's an old problem. I just get used to it."
Mu Yu looked at the sky and said, "Old man, don't do any work today. I'll check your body when you get back."
When Old Xu Tou heard this, he was a little flattered and said quickly: "Hey, good! Thank you, Mr. Mu Yu."
Although he didn't understand why Master Xian suddenly wanted to check his body, Old Xu Tou quickly ran to pick up the hoe and followed Mu Yu back with dignity. Along the way, I saw other villagers, all old Xu, with their chests raised and their heads raised, walking with the immortal master, but he was so beautiful.
"Xiao Shuai, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Mu Yu carefully checked Lao Xutou's body and found that there were no abnormalities except for common rheumatism and shortness of breath and chest tightness caused by smoking cigarettes. Mu Yu still didn't see any loss of life force from old Xu Tou.
"His vitality is from the same source as the wooden man. This is a very common situation in Gu magic. Basically, there are no signs before the onset of the disease, but once the onset of the disease occurs, there is nothing you can do." Xiaoshuai said seriously said.
Old Xu Tou next to him was confused. He asked in a low voice: "Master Mu Yu, is my rheumatism okay?"
"The rheumatism is not serious, but I am about to die." Xiaoshuai said simply.
Lao Xu's head and face suddenly turned pale, and he asked nervously: "Master Muyu, am I going to die?"
Mu Yu glared at Xiaoshuai and quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, old man, don't listen to his nonsense, I will help you cure your rheumatism."
Now that he has met, Mu Yu will simply be a good person and do it to the end. Rheumatism, a disease that afflicts many elderly people, is actually just a matter of simple massage for Muyu. Because the meridians in a mortal's body cannot directly bear spiritual power, Mu Yu used a few small, thin wooden needles to pierce Lao Xutou's knees, and then used this as a guide to indirectly introduce his own spiritual power to remove the moisture. Lose.
"Master Mu Yu personally treated me. I must have accumulated a lot of bad virtues in my previous life, haha!" Old Xu Tou whispered happily.
"Well, it's okay. Don't smoke dry cigarettes in the future. It's not good for your lungs."
Mu Yu then used a wooden needle to pierce Lao Xutou's chest, letting the wooden needle stretch out tiny roots inside his body, and used the roots to absorb all the harmful substances in Lao Xutou's lungs that could not be expelled from dry cigarettes, and then relied on The wooden needles are discharged.
He can only do this. Xiaoshuai's death declaration has never been inaccurate. Now he is not sure how to deal with it. The cause of the disease has not been found, and he cannot prescribe the right medicine at all.
After Mu Yu helped him massage, Old Xu Tou jumped a few times and found that the soreness that had troubled him for many years was gone. He took a few deep breaths and found that the chest tightness and shortness of breath were also gone, and his face suddenly became happy. There is wind in both words and walks.
It was getting late, and Old Xu Tou hurriedly ran to cook. His wife died early, and his only daughter also married to a neighboring village, so he lived alone.
In order to show that his legs and feet were flexible, he trotted all the way while serving the dishes, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was cured of his rheumatism.
"I have a chicken stewed in the pot. Just wait a moment!"
Old Xu Tou brought several plates of food, and Xiao Shuai ate the most happily alone. Anyway, he always accepted everyone to eat.
Only Mu Yu had no appetite at all. He thought that he must find a way to lure out the mysterious guy behind Chen Erzhuang. That guy can also eat other people's brains, it's disgusting no matter what he thinks!
"Master Mu Yu, please eat quickly. If it's not enough, I'll do it again." Old Xu Tou said sitting opposite Mu Yu.
"Old man, please recall in detail the scene when Mr. Zhao crawled out of the coffin that day. Mass Burial Valley, oh no, there are other strange places around Sky Burial Valley, such as smells, sounds, etc." Mu Yu now said to I know so little about that mysterious guy that I have no idea how to deal with it.
"Let me think about it, the sound? It doesn't seem to be anything special. Maybe it was like something rumbling under the Sky Burial Valley. I thought it was lightning and thunder underground! Is it the smell? Oh, yes! There is a very unpleasant smell. The musty smell makes people sick," Old Xu Tou said.
"The sound of lightning and thunder?" Mu Yu frowned. What happened under the Sky Burial Valley to cause lightning and thunder
