Lin Zhishu told me to go out and avoid the funeral, and after a while he walked out of the house and called Bao's Father over. He said that Steamed Bun had already closed his eyes, but there was one thing, his situation was special, he couldn't carry out the funeral, so he had to directly bury him, and the sooner the better, I had to settle this matter before nightfall.
Bao's Father did not say anything and quickly agreed.
The Lin Zhishu asked him to call Qiao Anshan over to help Bao Wenjun deal with the aftermath.
Qiao Anshan is that old carpenter, and upon hearing the name, I immediately became frightened, especially that demonic thing, it makes people afraid.
Lin Zhishu seemed to have seen through my thoughts, he advised me not to worry, the old man Qiao Anshan was also asked by the villagers to help throw me into the river, now that the villagers have stopped pursuing this issue, the old man Qiao naturally will not pursue this matter.
When Lin Zhishu said this, I became a lot more relieved. Not long later, Qiao Anshan arrived with that guy, and he even glanced at me before entering the house. That sharp gaze of his made me tremble.
After he entered, he closed the door. Even Lin Zhishu and Da Jian didn't have the right to enter, they were waiting outside the door like me.
The Lin Zhishu said that since Old Man Qiao was cleaning the corpse inside, once he finished his procedures, Bao Wenjun would definitely close his eyes.
Sure enough, Qiao Anshan packed his things and came out after a while. He only said to close his eyes and bury them, and then left.
I think that they would be anxious to be buried because they are afraid that Bao Wenjun would be in the same situation as their little brother.
I thought, although Bao Wenjun didn't do anything good when he was alive, he was still an ordinary law-abiding citizen who did what an ordinary person should do, so after he died, he would not cause trouble for others, no matter how big the grievances are, it would be resolved. Actually, when I thought about it, ghost should do this, one breath of life, after a handful of death, when a person dies, it would be over a hundred times. No matter how much pain you go through, you won't be able to live through it. The fact that Bao Wenjun could quickly close his eyes showed that he understood this logic.
The Lin Zhishu said that the last step was to put on your shoes. After you put on your shoes, there would be no problem, you can go.
When I walked to his feet, I saw that Bao Wenjun had really closed his eyes. His expression was very calm, his hair was combed to a bright finish, and he was even wearing a brand-new old set of clothes.
In order to help him put on his shoes, I sat on the ground with Bao Wenjun at the same position. This is my respect to the deceased.
Since I was sitting on the ground, my line of sight was parallel to his, so from my point of view, I always felt that his eyes were squinted, but when I stood up and looked at them, they were closed, without the slightest sign of opening.
But when I sat down, I felt his eyes open again, and I looked back and forth several times.
Lin Zhishu was getting impatient. You want me to do something again?
I said it was all right, and it took a long, shaky time to get one of his shoes on.
At that moment, I felt a change in his face.
Before he had washed his face, his face had turned purple. After washing his face, his face had turned red, but now, it seemed to have changed color once again.
It was normal, I thought, and the facial appearance was only temporary. No one could keep a corpse that rosy for a long time.
Without thinking about it, I put on his other shoe.
When I stood up, I realized that something was wrong.
After Qiao Anshan helped him clean up the corpse, his face turned slightly red, but it was not like that now. His face quickly paled, but his forehead became more and more blue, and at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye, the color became darker and darker.
Just as I was about to ask Lin Zhishu, someone shouted from outside the courtyard, The coffin is here! When Lin Zhishu heard this, he walked out with large strides. Before he left, he told me to cover Bao Wenjun's face.
I did not dare to face a corpse alone in the house, so I turned my head and covered Bao Wenjun's face with a white cloth. Then, I hurriedly ran out of the courtyard.
Second Master Lin called for his helpers to bring Bao Wenjun's corpse out. He placed it in the coffin, and after a simple farewell ceremony, the four Eight Immortals hurriedly carried the coffin away, ready to bury it in the back of the mountain.
However, something still happened while the coffin was being carried.
