Between life and death [unlimited]
Chapter 19 Transporting the Corpse
Si Yufeng counted the number of people again.
Counting him and Jiang Xun, there are only eight people left alive. It seems that two novice players died in the punishment just now.
Si Yufeng closed his eyes, and silently prayed for the two people who had just passed away: "...May the Lord bless you all, and let peace and joy come to us all, Amen..."
His voice was so low that no one around him could hear him clearly.
But Jiang Lai, who was standing beside him, noticed his silent actions sensitively.
Coincidentally, Jiang Lai has an occupational disease that is to subconsciously observe other people's lips, so he roughly guessed what Si Yufeng said just now from the shape of his mouth.But he didn't bother Si Yufeng, he just looked at him with a little more meaning in his eyes.
At this time, someone else noticed that there were two people missing from the team.
The young man with a simple and honest face said in surprise, "Why are there two people missing?"
The Buddhist old man sighed, "Didn't you just say random punishment, then of course they are..."
"Father!" The unlucky uncle walked quickly to Si Yufeng whom he trusted, and said expectantly: "My life depends on you, you must save us!"
Si Yufeng held his forehead with some headaches, "Mr. Pang, I will definitely not sit idly by if I can help."
As he spoke, he recalled the content of the task just now and reminded everyone: "The deceased is gone... Everyone should continue to complete the task according to the system's requirements."
Everyone walked out of the courtyard according to the previous task requirements, and found that what the master said was true.On the empty yellow land to the right of the gate of this courtyard, there is indeed a mahogany coffin.
The wind at night became more and more fierce, the winter wind seemed to cut everyone's faces with knives, and there was a whirring sound from time to time in the distance. In this silent night, the mahogany coffin looked very strange.
All the players cautiously stayed a few meters away from the coffin.
Among the novice players, the honest young man asked, "...Father, what do you think we should do now?"
Si Yufeng's words and deeds seem to be the weather vane for other players now.
Si Yufeng frowned, staring at the mahogany coffin without knowing what he was thinking, "Why don't we take a closer look? Otherwise, I don't know what to do standing here now."
"Oh, by the way, Jiang Xun..." Si Yufeng suddenly remembered the amulets he got just now, and said to Jiang Xun, "The eight amulets we both got just now should still be with you, right? Send them to everyone now?"
Jiang Xun nodded, took out the spells and distributed them to the novice players, exactly eight cards for eight people, one for each player.
After the new players got the amulet, their faces looked better, and everyone seemed to have the confidence to go forward.Everyone surrounded the mahogany coffin, and a notification sound suddenly appeared in the system.
【Ding!Players please follow the system prompts to operate! 】
[Task requirements: Players are asked to use carts to transport the coffin for the ghost marriage to Qian Yuan's family in the next village within one day. 】
Immediately after the prompt was over, another old wooden cart appeared on the open space.
The sudden appearance of the system prompt also frightened many timid players, and at this time, no one was willing to step forward to help carry the coffin onto the cart.
A tall man suddenly stood out from the crowd. He had never spoken much before, but for some reason he suddenly took the lead to encourage everyone: "They are all men, who hasn't seen a dead man yet! Everyone help , this coffin can be put on the car!"
Judging by the accent, the eldest brother should be from the Northeast, but his figure is even more similar.The whole person has big arms and a round waist, with a hunchback and a tiger back. At first glance, he looks like a tough guy in the Northeast.
The big brother from Northeast China is also a man of action. As soon as he finished speaking, he walked directly to the side of the coffin, put his hands on the coffin board, and prepared to lift the coffin.
The newcomer team saw someone volunteering to carry the coffin, and several other people stepped forward one after another.
Si Yufeng naturally wanted to help.I saw that he was also holding the coffin, standing at the front and directing everyone: "I said one, two, three, everyone work hard together."
"one two Three!"
The mahogany coffin was immediately lifted up by the group of people.
Although Jiang Xun didn't participate in carrying the coffin, he quickly sent the trolley to the front of the coffin after he saw everyone erecting the coffin.
Everyone just put the coffin on it.
I don't know if it was to take care of the many novices in the game. After the coffin was put on the cart, another scalper conjured up out of thin air in the open space.
After Si Yufeng saw the scalper, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, there is no unparalleled road, and the system is still a bit human.
Just now he was still thinking about how many troubles might happen along the way if there were no livestock to pull the cart and only rely on manpower to pull the cart.
The old buddhist uncle who had persuaded the unlucky uncle before stood up warmly at this time, and he said to everyone with a benevolent face: "Anyway, I am old, old man, leave the job of driving the car to me, I guess You young people have never driven a bullock cart, have you?"
Si Yufeng smiled gratefully at the old man: "Old man, the Lord will bless you."
The Buddhist old man sat on the cart, whipped his whip, and planned to drive the oxen forward, but the ox in front of the cart was whipped, and he pulled the four-wheeled wooden cart away with a "moo".
It may also be that everything went too smoothly before. Just when the Buddhist old man drove the ox cart less than 200 meters away, somehow the front wheel of the wooden cart suddenly hit a big rock on the side of the road, and the whole cart The car also rolled over in an instant!
Jiang Lai and the others had no idea that something would happen so soon.All the players watched helplessly as the mahogany coffin that was finally placed on the car fell to the ground again, and this time the coffin boards were knocked open!
Fortunately, the old Buddhist man who was driving the car was fine. He felt that the car was about to overturn, so he jumped off the car without hesitation, so he only had a little scratch on his right arm, and there was no other serious problem.
Si Yufeng looked at the corpse that fell out of the coffin and was now lying on the ground with a livid face.
He felt in his heart that this might be an ominous sign.
The Northeast brother who took the lead in carrying the coffin before stood up again and stood out from the crowd.
Only to hear him say to everyone in a dignified manner: "Brothers who didn't help carry the coffin just now, now two come out, and put the corpse back into the coffin with me!"
I don't know if this big brother is really not afraid, or he is pretending to be strong.
But the leading role this time was not very good. After all, lifting a corpse is not the same as lifting a coffin. No one dares to make fun of their own lives.
Jiang Lai thought about it, and finally stood up.If no one carried it, the task could not be carried out. If it was delayed for a while until midnight, what kind of mutation might happen to the scattered corpses.
Seeing that his teammates had all stood up, Si Yufeng naturally followed suit.
The three of them discussed it and made the following arrangement: one person lifts the corpse's legs, and two people lift the corpse's arms, and then they will work hard together, hoping to put the corpse into the coffin smoothly this time.
The corpse that was about to be sent to be married to a yin relative appeared to be an adult male.He was wearing a black shroud with longevity patterns and a pair of black cloth shoes on his feet. Probably due to local customs, the corpse's legs were tightly bound with hemp rope.
This corpse has not decomposed yet, and he looks like an ordinary person in a well-preserved state, but the face of the corpse is a little livid, and the makeup of the dead on his face is a bit scary.
I saw two blushing blushes painted on the pale cheeks of the corpse, and the lips of this male corpse that should have been bloodless were also painted bright red. Those ghostly looks.
After some discussion, Jiang Li and the Northeast brother were stronger, so they were responsible for lifting the arms and the entire upper body of the corpse, while Si Yufeng was responsible for lifting the legs of the corpse.
During the process of putting the corpse into the coffin, the Northeast brother was chanting something, and it happened that Jiang Xun's hearing was very good, so he could clearly hear the Northeast brother saying:
"...I am a staunch materialist, a vanguard force of the working class...I am a well-thought-out party insider...Just finish the task, hurry up..."
In the end, the three of them worked together to lift the corpse. This adult male corpse was heavy, and Si Yufeng felt a little hard when he lifted it, but when he saw Jiang Xun's relaxed face, as if he didn't use any effort, he couldn't help but He sighed: Jiang Lai's "thigh" is really hugging right.
After finally putting the corpse back into the mahogany coffin, just as the coffin board was about to close, the male corpse who had been lying quietly opened his eyes and stared straight at Jiang Li and the Northeast brother above him, smiling strangely for a moment.
Brother Northeast: "...Brother, did you see anything just now..."
Jiang Xun: "He smiled."
As always, cherish words like gold.
Since Si Yufeng was standing on the other side of the coffin, he didn't see the weird smile on the corpse.After hearing what Jiang Xun said, he immediately asked with concern: "Jiang Xun, take a look, is your spell still there?"
Brother Northeast belatedly remembered that he still had a talisman, and finally felt a little safe in his heart, but when he reached out to touch the pocket of his cotton trousers, he smiled wryly: "...No, it's gone... ..."
It seems that the amulet sent by the system just now blocked the two of them. It is estimated that if there is no amulet, Jiang Xun and the Northeast brother will be attacked by corpses at that time.
Si Yufeng took out the cinnabar pen for avoiding ghosts from the pocket of his cotton trousers. He walked behind Big Brother Northeast and asked, "Brother, do you mind if I draw symbols on your clothes? There is no paper now."
Of course, the Northeast guy doesn't mind very much, and he is still [-]% willing: "Brother, you can draw! Do you need to dip the pen in blood or not, your brother has a lot of blood thieves!"
Si Yufeng bit his index finger, dipped the tip of a brush in the blood, and replied, "No, it's just a little blood."
After finishing speaking, he picked up the pen behind the Northeast Big Brother, and started to draw like a dragon and a phoenix.
The people who were surprised by Si Yufeng's operations stared dumbfounded at the Western priest drawing the ghost-exorcism charms belonging to the traditional Eastern Taoism with a brush.
Jiang Xun's back naturally couldn't escape Si Yufeng's teammate's "Ma Liang Magic Brush".
It may be that Si Yufeng's platelet activity is relatively high, and when it was Jiang Xun's turn to paint, the wound on Si Yufeng's finger had already solidified.
Si Yufeng was actually a bit afraid of pain. When he was about to bite his fingertips again, Jiang Shi probably noticed Si Yufeng's expression of "a strong man regretting his wrist".
So, Jiang Lai took the initiative to stretch out his bleeding index finger, "Use my blood."
Si Yufeng froze for a moment, he obviously didn't expect his teammates to observe so carefully.Is this person really the straight universe man Jiang Xun he knew, so caring?
But he didn't say much, he just smiled at Jiang Xun, and then drew one behind Jiang Xun, which he thought was the most perfect and beautiful amulet he had ever drawn in his life!
Counting him and Jiang Xun, there are only eight people left alive. It seems that two novice players died in the punishment just now.
Si Yufeng closed his eyes, and silently prayed for the two people who had just passed away: "...May the Lord bless you all, and let peace and joy come to us all, Amen..."
His voice was so low that no one around him could hear him clearly.
