Chapter 288 The Fifth Element
The cold wind howled outside the window.
The moonlight appeared and disappeared, and occasionally someone would knock on the door, but no matter what was said outside, the five people in the room turned a blind eye.
Apart from this, no other dangers have emerged for the time being.
After a little trimming.
These five people who had just experienced life and death began to review the intelligence they had gained from the danger.
Wu Xian coughed lightly.
"There is no doubt that Granny Wang came here with malicious intent, but Su Xuan asked her the reasons why she was dissatisfied with the burial. After a brief summary, I think there are five reasons in total."
Su Xuan took over the conversation.
"House, furniture, waiters, money, moonlight."
Li Juxian, with green herbs smeared on his face, said: "The house should be the coffin we buried her in. Because those coffins were very old, her house was ugly and leaky, and the furniture..."
"Furniture is funeral objects!" Wu Xian took out a bamboo stick. "So-called funeral objects are utensils used by the deceased on a daily basis. The bamboo stick I got asked for a three-piece set of blue and white porcelain."
Jian Lingyu also took out her bamboo stick: "The waiter must be referring to the paper figure for burial. My bamboo stick says that I need a green and strong paper figure."
With the bamboo sticks, the first three conditions are easy to guess.
Money also has a general range, which may refer to gold and silver, stacked gold ingots, round paper money with square holes, or ghost money from relatives...
But the last moonlight makes it difficult to give a definite answer.
Granny Wang said.
Whenever the moonlight appears, she is forced to come down from the 'underworld' to the human world. In order to have a complete and correct funeral, she must at least not be affected by the moonlight.
But blocking the moonlight is a bit abstract.
So everyone had to put the fifth element on hold for the time being.
With the bamboo sticks as proof, everyone was almost certain that these five elements were what was needed for the correct ceremony, but everyone had slight differences, so there was no way to prepare in advance.
There is another point worth noting.
They were inexplicably teleported into the coffin tonight, and no one can guarantee that the same thing won't happen tomorrow night, so it's best to come up with a solution before tomorrow night arrives...
That's all there is to discuss.
Seeing that the night was getting dark, everyone decided to take turns to keep watch and began to rest...
……
Wen Chao entered the room.
There were supposed to be eight people, but now there are only six.
They were Wen Chao, the Wei siblings, Xiao Gao, Jiang Chun, Ran Qiuhua, and a big yellow dog lying in the corner with blood on the corner of its mouth.
Wen Chao glanced at everyone one by one, and his gaze lingered on Jiang Chun for a moment. He was in a good mood that Jiang Chun was still alive.
"Yang Bin is dead, and now only Xiao Miao has not returned."
Wei Hengbo snorted coldly.
"I don't think we need to wait any longer. It's a waste of time to keep waiting. After so long, she must be dead."
There was a scratch on his arm.
They had just encountered a similar situation, where the evil spirit in the moonlight disguised itself as Aunt Miao and tried to trick the door open.
Everyone here.
They knew there was something wrong with the moonlight from the beginning, so they were more vigilant than Wu Xian, but they were still fooled by the disappearance of the moonlight.
They kindly welcomed Aunt Miao in, but the one who came in was a monster who only looked similar.
If the big yellow dog hadn't suddenly bit the monster's thigh, no one would have been able to discover it. In the end, they paid a certain price before they drove out the disguised monster.
"Let's wait a little longer..." Wen Chao sighed.
The quality of this group of people is really not high.
As new family members who have only experienced the blessed land once, the Wei sisters have excellent fighting capabilities.
But it can be seen from the fact that they did not join the funeral team that their style of doing things is very conservative, and everything is prioritized to save their lives. If the two of them were willing to use all their strength, they would definitely be able to take down the evil spirit that just came in, and thus obtain important intelligence, but these two people only wanted to drive the evil spirit out and be done with it.
There are three newcomers: Xiao Gao, Jiang Chun and Ran Qiuhua.
They are very positive and motivated in their mentality. Although they are all very scared, they are trying their best to survive. It's a pity that so far, they have not had the opportunity to pray to God for blessings in this blessed land.
This results in the three newcomers being less effective than that big yellow dog.
Speaking of the big yellow dog.
This big yellow dog has a very strong intuition. It can quickly sense the approach of danger and see through disguises that its relatives cannot see through. However, it is not close to other people, only to the two female white-collar workers, so it must at least ensure that the two of them live a little longer.
Then Wen Chao looked at the windowsill.
On the windowsill lay a piece of rough, simply polished glass.
After being tricked by the evil spirit outside, Wen Chao was thinking about how to simply and directly judge whether the moonlight was real or fake.
It is indeed simple and crude to directly turn off the lights in the room, but Aunt Miao has not come back yet, and the long period of darkness in the room can easily make people feel uneasy, and no one can guarantee that there will not be other things in the darkness.
So after thinking for a while, Wen Chao placed a small piece of glass he had picked up during the day on the windowsill, where there happened to be a hole in the window paper.
In this way, as long as you look at it from a specific angle, you can clearly see whether the moonlight outside is real or fake.
After waiting for a while.
The moonlight was finally blocked by dark clouds, and at the same time there was movement outside.
It’s Aunt Miao!
She finally escaped from the jar!
Everyone leaned out at the window, waiting for her to reach the door as soon as possible so that they could open the door and welcome her in.
……
After Aunt Miao crawled out.
After standing there for a while, her head was now covered in cold sweat and her body was stiff.
The jar was large enough to easily accommodate a person, but not large enough for Aunt Miao to move freely. She had been in the jar for so long that her body became numb.
She was the first one to be teleported into the urn and the last one to come out of it.
Even though he was screaming.
But when she found that no one could save her, she also burst into blood in the jar. She spent a long time, forcibly pressing the pale ghost under her body, until it could not bear it anymore and disappeared without a trace.
Standing outside again.
Despite the biting cold, she felt like she was reborn.
She survived!
Seeing Aunt Miao dawdling after coming out, Wen Chao finally couldn't help but open the door and urge her: "Hurry up, why are you still standing there? Who knows when the moonlight will appear again."
Aunt Miao smiled and walked towards the room as quickly as she could.
But her experience in the jar made it difficult for her to move, so she would look for something to hold on to after every two steps, such as a tree trunk or a stone...
Aunt Miao's face was full of smiles, because she knew that as long as she returned to the room before the moonlight appeared, she would be safe.
suddenly.
A swollen, pale hand grabbed her wrist.
The smile on Aunt Miao's face froze, her body temperature dropped sharply, and she trembled all over. She turned her head and found that she had supported something that she shouldn't have.
The well with the corpse in it!
