C44 (1/2)
Next to the coffin was Steamed Bun's coffin. He was sharpening the knife beside the coffin. This scene looked quite strange.
I was about to shout out and ask him what he was doing. Second Master Lin immediately stopped me, signalling for me to be quiet.
The room was such a big place, although we did not make a sound, we were still discovered by Bao Wenjun.
He raised his head. His eyes were bloodshot and filled with a strange smile.
When he looked at us, he did not stop sharpening the knife in his hand.
That gaze, it was as though it wanted to eat us!
Second Master Lin whispered. He's been possessed!
Although we all know that Bao Wenjun is Steamed Bun's brother and the two of us are brothers, what does he mean by sharpening his blade here?
But before we could react, Bao Wenjun raised the blade in his hand and slashed towards us!
Surprised and surprised, Second Master Lin reacted quickly.
He grabbed Bao Wenjun's neck with one hand and used his middle finger to poke the center of his forehead.
Come to think of it, it was weird that Bao Wenjun fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Da Jian and I were dumbfounded. What exactly is going on?
Second Master Lin waved his hand to tell us not to worry, it wasn't a big deal.
Then he went to the door and looked around.
Da Jian asked what he was looking for. He said that he wanted to see exactly what caused Bao Wenjun to be infected by this evil spirit.
So we followed him, not daring to leave.
After searching the courtyard, he didn't find anything amiss.
Finally, the Second Master Lin fixed his eyes on the ”Shadow Lamp” that was hung on the door frame.
He slapped his forehead and said how could he forget about this!
Before, Second Master Lin had said that the ”Yin Light” was to lure souls home, so it could not be extinguished before burial.
But in the past two days, we've encountered too many things, so we don't have the time to worry about it.
This time, however, the shadow light was extinguished and something happened.
It's a good thing that we made it in time, if not the pig slaughtering knife in Bao Wenjun's hand, would have created such a mess!
The Second Master Lin asked the Xiao Tao to go inside the house to look for candles. Da Jian and I followed him out of the hall and into the courtyard to see if there were any more mistakes.
Just at this moment, Da Jian's miserable cries came from inside the house!
We ran back to the house to see what was going on.
Xiao Tao stood in the middle of the room, his mouth was wide open as he looked above him …
Bao Wenjun hanged himself!
There was a rope tied to the beam, and directly beneath him was Steamed Bun's coffin.
With such a high ceiling beam, he must have stepped on the coffin to lift it up.
Second Master Lin shouted. F * ck you, what are you standing there for! Save them!
As if we had just awoken from a dream, Da Jian and Xiao Tao volunteered themselves and quickly stepped on the coffin to hug Bao Wenjun, while Second Master Lin and I followed suit.
Fortunately, the rope was not tightened so it managed to pull Bao Wenjun down in a few breaths.
After placing him on the ground, the Second Master Lin let out a sigh of relief.
He said he was lucky to find out in time, that there was no danger to his life, and that it wouldn't be long before he woke up.
Hearing this, my hanging heart finally relaxed.
Da Jian was a little flustered. He asked Second Master Lin, otherwise, he would bury the bun here and now.
Second Master Lin said he had already planned on doing this, but he had to untie the rope first.
We weren't in the mood to ask why we had to untie the rope first.
Da Jian wanted to step on the coffin to untie the rope, but he was stopped by the Second Master Lin.
He said that he was stepping on the coffin to save the dead, so he was forced to stop, and was extremely disrespectful to the dead.
We found a bench for you. Da Jian stood on it and untied the rope. Xiao Tao supported him from below.
The room's beams were higher, the rope was especially short, and they had to step on a stool to reach the rope. They did not know how Bao Wenjun had managed to hang himself.
I asked them if they could use it. Da Jian said there was no need.
Seeing that nothing had happened, the Second Master Lin instructed me to follow him and light the Shadow Lamps.
I almost forgot about lighting the lamp after the accident just now.
However, just as Second Master Lin and I were about to walk out of the hall and light the lamps, a scream came from behind us.
We ran back to the house, and when I saw what was happening, I sat down on the floor in fright.
It was unknown when, but Da Jian, who was standing on the chair, had already hung himself up.
