Aunt Li thought about it for a while, and finally gritted her teeth and said that she would bury him today.
She didn't have to worry about so much for her son.
Upon hearing this, grandma said she would call some people to come over and help, and asked me to wait here before going out.
At this moment, I have already put Hu Zi into the umbrella.
It would be a sin if I accidentally let it fly away.
After a short time, grandma called over twenty people, and almost all of them came except those who went to the fields.
The fact that no one came before does not mean that the relationship between Aunt Li and the big guys is not good, but that according to custom, the funeral will be carried out and buried on the seventh day.
At first, a few people questioned why they were rushing to bury the body on only the sixth day, which was against customs.
I undoubtedly became the best lobbyist.
Although I didn’t have to say anything, grandma pointed at me proudly and said, my grandson has seen it and today is a very suitable day for burial.
The people in the village knew what had happened before and that I had become my teacher, Mr.
Yin Yang, so they said nothing more.
Several villagers quickly built a shed in the yard of Aunt Li's house and placed a dark coffin under the shed.
After placing it properly, they spread a silver fabric mattress inside and placed a delicate pillow.
Two people were separated and slowly put the tiger in, and then covered it with a quilt of golden fabric.
There is a saying for this, which is the so-called covering with gold and silver.
However, because the village was relatively poor, it was simplified.
Generally, there were three pavilions and three pavilions covered with gold and silver.
After placing it, everyone asked Aunt Li to take another look at Hu Zi before sealing the coffin.
Aunt Li lay on the edge of the coffin, stretched out her hand to touch Huzi's face, and burst into tears.
After a few minutes, grandma and an aunt pulled Aunt Li away.
This took a lot of effort.
Aunt Li's hand was tightly grasped by the side of the coffin and would not let go.
When the villagers saw Aunt Li being pulled away, they lifted the lid of the coffin and put it on, shouting, "Be careful, it's time to put the lid back on." bang The coffin lid fell with a sound, closed it firmly, and then pressed hard to close it tightly.
After it's covered, it's time to nail it down.
Seven people took the prepared seven coffin nails and started nailing them from the head of the coffin.
"Huzi, move your head, be careful to nail it to the head."
A nail was nailed on the head of the coffin.
"Huzi, move your hands and be careful to nail them."
Two nails were driven into the upper positions of both sides of the coffin.
"Huzi, move your legs, be careful to nail your legs."
Two nails were driven into the lower sides of the coffin one by one.
"Huzi, move your feet, be careful to nail your feet."
Two nails were hammered into the end of the coffin.
All seven coffin nails were driven in, and the coffin lid was nailed tightly.
Then it was time to lift the coffin.
I asked them to tie the coffin with hemp ropes.
The binding method was three horizontal lines and two vertical lines, which means "three long and two short".
Because it was a white-haired person giving a black-haired person, the coffin had to be whipped before being lifted up for burial, as a sign of punishment for the deceased.
Aunt Li took the willow branch she had prepared before, hesitated, and gently whipped the coffin three times. .
Two thick jars were inserted into the ropes that tied the coffin, and four people carried it.
Because Aunt Li is a widow and her daughter has married far away.
Due to inconvenient communication, she has not received the news and has not come back yet.
She can only walk by herself holding the soul-calling flag in front of her head.
Before leaving, I also brought a basin with water because I would need it later.

The burial place was not far from home and arrived quickly.
As early as the first day after Huzi drowned, Aunt Li had already found someone to dig a big hole.
Everyone hung the coffin with a rope and put it into the dug pit.
Then they untied the rope and took it out.
They placed a stack of yellow paper on the coffin and handed Aunt Li a shovel to fill in the first hole.
Shovel soil.
At this point, Aunt Li had no choice but to take the shovel, shovel a large shovel of soil, and sprinkle it on the coffin.
The people filled in the soil at an incredible speed.
In just a few minutes, the big pit turned into a small bag.
I asked Aunt Li to turn the grave three times in a counterclockwise direction.
After the transfer, I asked her to insert the soul-calling flag on the grave.
This was considered over, I asked everyone to go back, leaving only Aunt Li.
We carried the washbasin, umbrellas, and the tiger clothes that I had ordered Aunt Li to bring to the river.
This is to give clothes to Huzi, because he dare not touch the things that have been burned, so he can only give them to him by the river.
Aunt Li followed my instructions and stood by the river and shouted Huzi's name loudly, while I dipped Huzi's clothes in the basin one by one, then handed them to Aunt Li and asked her to use my best strength.
Throw into the water.
The clothes were thrown into the water one by one and sank quickly.
I knew that this was because I succeeded.
The clothes already had their owners and were waiting for Huzi to collect them.
Other ghosts cannot touch the owner's things, and they will sting like needles when touched.
After throwing away the clothes, I handed the basin to Aunt Li and asked her to go back first.
I also had to arrange the soul of Huzi so that he could not continue to be a drowned ghost looking for a substitute.
Looking at Aunt Li's back, I also took steps towards Huzi's grave.
The reason why I didn't arrange a water burial for Huzi was because he was wet and pitiful.
If he was buried in water, he would only be a drowned ghost.
If he couldn't find a scapegoat, he would stay in the water forever.
There is a reason why I let it be buried like ordinary people.
The five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and earth can overcome water.
In this way, the earth will absorb the moisture on it, making it no longer cold and damp.
After arriving at the place, I opened my umbrella and inserted it in the center of Huzi's grave, and told Huzi to follow the umbrella carefully into the grave.
He also told him to find a time to collect his clothes in the water, and also told him to stay in the grave and not go anywhere, and not to show up no matter who came looking for him, even if it was a Yin soldier.
As long as you stay in the tomb for three years, the aura of the water ghost in your body will be completely transformed, and you can be reincarnated at that time.
A streak of blue light slid down the umbrella, sliding into the grave like liquid.
I knew it was Huzi, and it seemed that he understood what I said.
After seeing that it had fully entered, I took away my umbrella and prepared to go back.
Before I left, I left a piece of advice for it.
It must not do evil or play pranks in the past three years.
Otherwise, if it is discovered by the evil soldiers, it will be beaten to the eighteenth grade.
A layer of hell, where you will never be able to escape.
The soul-calling flag fluttered alone in the breeze, looking extremely lonely.
I took the umbrella and turned around and left.
When I returned the umbrella to Aunt Li's house, she sealed a white envelope for me.
This white envelope was not a thank-you gift, but a custom.
If there was something special at home, anyone who came to help would have to seal a white envelope.
The purpose is to use white packets to get rid of bad luck.

When I returned home, it was already dark, and my parents had come back and prepared meals, waiting for my return:
