C45 (1/2)
After asking the Second Master Lin, I found out that there was a custom in their village: Every time someone was born, they would prepare a pair of tableware for him to accompany him throughout his life.
The bowl and chopsticks would be buried with him when he left.
I thought, no wonder Bao Wenjun always ate with a porcelain bowl and a spoon when he was in college, it was a custom in his village. At that time, I wondered why Bao Wenjun always ate with a bowl when there were dishes in the school cafeteria, even when we asked him before, probably because he was afraid that we would laugh at him for being a country bumpkin.
Fortunately, the kitchen wasn't burned down, so we quickly found the bowls and chopsticks that Steamed Bun used.
Second Master Lin smashed the bowl on the ground and picked up a fragment.
He sincerely said that this was the last method. If it didn't work, then he would bury him.
Seeing this, I understood that he was going to cut the rope with the pieces of the bowl.
After all, the Second Master Lin is already old, and we all volunteered not to let him take the risk.
But Second Master Lin waved his hand, he wanted to come personally.
Entering the main hall, we fought back the remaining smoke and made our final attempt.
Unexpectedly, Second Master Lin managed to cut the rope off smoothly, and there were no accidents during this period.
We all gave a thumbs up, the older the spicier!
Second Master Lin came down and held onto the rope for us to deal with.
But we all backed away, and no one dared to take the rope.
Second Master Lin looked down on us, probably because he thinks that we're too cowardly.
Arriving at the courtyard, he lit a fire and set the rope on fire.
When he was done, Second Master Lin rubbed on another piece of rope and lit up the ”Shadow Lamps”.
Before he left, in order to make sure that the bun was alright, Second Master Lin intentionally opened the coffin to take a look.
We didn't dare to move forward. We just hid at the side.
But when Second Master Lin opened the coffin's lid, the expression on his face instantly changed!
Seeing Second Master Lin's expression, the three of us looked at each other.
My first thought is, Steamed Bun's gone?
However, I guessed wrong this time. Steamed Bun was still lying there intact.
And what surprised Second Master Lin was the set of ”old clothes” he was wearing.
He remembered that at the beginning, he was wearing an old black robe, but now, he was wearing layers upon layers of old clothes with blue lace. Furthermore, they were extremely short. They were simply child's clothes! Only Steamed Bun was weak. If not, ordinary players wouldn't be able to wear him.
Where did the ”old clothes” come from?
Second Master Lin turned his head and asked us, who helped him?
Amongst the three of us, you look at me and I look at you.
Da Jian was a little impatient. At a time like this, what was he going to do about it? Maybe it was something Bao Wenjun had given him to wear.
But Second Master Lin did not say anything at that time, he closed the coffin lid and we went back together.
When we got home, my mom cooked dinner. We didn't have much appetite, so we just ate a little.
Second Master Lin told everyone to take a rest first as they still had some work to do during the night.
After returning to the house, just as I was about to fall asleep, the Second Master Lin entered.
Looking at his expression, I knew he must have something to talk to me about.
Sure enough, he sat on the edge of the bed and went straight to the point. He wanted to know why Steamed Bun was wearing his old clothes.
My interest was piqued, and I asked him to tell me what had happened.
The Second Master Lin said that the problem lay in this old clothes.
It looked like an ordinary longevity garment, but there was a great deal of care within it!
In the white matter industry, there is a job called ”longevity clothes maker”, specially made for longevity clothes.
Generally, longevity garments didn't use fur, meaning that the dead would turn into beasts in the next life.
Therefore, most of the materials used are ”silk cotton”, meaning ”nostalgia”.
Secondly, the number of people wearing the birthday suit was even more detailed.
No matter what the living do, they pay attention to ”avoid single love, double love”, and any procedure in the funeral of the deceased involves ”avoid double love, single”.
The shroud is no exception, all who know, want to ”five collars three waists”, namely: five pieces of top, three pieces of skirt pants.
There were also many aspects of collocation that he didn't want to go into too much detail about.
Second Master Lin said that the biggest problem was that Steamed Bun's birthday suit was obviously made of beast skin.
Second Master Lin was able to see the inklings, so he immediately thought about the number of longevity clothes.
After browsing through, he found another problem.
The jacket and trousers were inside and outside.
This clearly meant that 'good things come in pairs'!
Thus, he came to the conclusion that some people wanted Steamed Bun to become a ”beast” in his next life, and ”good things come in pairs”, which meant they wanted another one to die in his house!
What the heck! How much hatred and hatred was this?
No wonder Steamed Bun was so restless. If he was to wear such ”old clothes”, anyone else would be in an uproar!
