"What a sin."
Xu Ming muttered as he glanced at the eyes of the red-clothed woman's corpse.
He was unwilling to accept this!
"Second Baby, cover your eyes."
"Master, I'm not going."
Although he had followed his master for nearly ten years, Li Xiaoyao's courage hadn't been honed. He always had nightmares at night.
"Only you can go here! It's troublesome if you can't send it away!" Xu Ming glared at his disciple.
It was the first time in decades that the bride had become a ghost in the morning and at night. The female corpse was too resentful and wanted to stay in this world.
The burly man looked at the young man in a difficult position. He endured his sadness and said," Master Xu, why don't I do it?"”
"No!"
The master and disciple said in unison.
Li Xiaoyao shook his head and clapped his hands lightly, implying that he was slapping the dust.
He walked to the side of the bed. Her eyes were still open, but Li Xiaoyao felt that she was looking at him.
"Let's go. We'll cross the bridge and return to our original path. Reincarnate early." This kid was really afraid. He placed his trembling hand on his cold forehead and gently pulled down those eyes that were unwilling to close.
"Don't go near her again, especially don't shed tears on her.”Xu Ming greeted the brawny man.
"Got it." The man nodded.
"Did the monk shout?" After the master and disciple washed their hands, they sat in the central room to rest and asked.
"Elder Xu turned around and shouted. He will be here early in the morning.”A woman in her sixties served tea to the master and disciple.
The monk was the group of people who beat gongs and drums for the dead. There were many people. The big group could have more than ten people, and the small group had seven or eight people.
The two junior brothers didn't ask about the strange death of the bride. This wasn't something they had to care about.
"Elder Xu, thank you for your hard work.”
The old man politely gave Xu Ming a cigarette. When it came to Li Xiaoyao, he refused. He did not smoke.
"Why did this girl suddenly leave? She was fine this afternoon.”
A voice suddenly came from the room. Li Xiaoyao sat beside his master and opened his eyes slightly. It was always good to hear it.
"Did you drink some wine?"
"I don't know. Zhu Zi had already left when he went in. I couldn't wake him up.”
"What a pity. Sigh."
The room fell silent again.
Li Xiaoyao and his master sat on the stool and leaned against the wall to take a nap. As the owner of this industry, they would not provide a bed to sleep on.
Seeing that the master and disciple had fallen asleep, everyone was afraid that they would catch a cold, so they added a few more pieces of firewood.
Everyone looked at Li Xiaoyao, who was fast asleep. The young man had delicate features. It was a pity that he had started this line of work at such a young age. Could he be like his master and not have a family for the rest of his life?
Some people said that Elder Xu was an embalmer, but it didn't seem like it. They only dressed the dead but didn't put on makeup. He said he was a monk, but he didn't play or sing.
However, if someone died and Elder Li was not invited, those monks would not come. No one knew how long this custom had been passed down in the local area. Anyway, it was passed down from monk to monk, and Xu Ming's master generation had also passed it down for several generations.
The locals didn't know the reason, and the monks were also unclear about the tradition left behind. They only knew that if they didn't invite Xu Ming and his sect, it would be easy for big problems to happen. However, no one knew what problems would happen.
Some people said that they were 'sending the dead,' which meant that they were sending the souls of those who had died away from the world of the living, afraid that they would be reluctant to leave.
Perhaps only Xu Ming and his disciple Li Xiaoyao knew about this unwritten rule.
Li Xiaoyao had another nightmare. He dreamed that the woman who had just died got up from the bed and looked at him quietly in the corner of the hall. He wanted to shout and wake up, but he found that he was powerless. He did not even have the strength to open his eyes.
The woman floated over with a sinister aura and said to Li Xiaoyao," My name is Bai Susu. I was supposed to be a snake in this life, but I reincarnated as a human.
I was unwilling to find out that I was pregnant during the wedding. But as a mother, I don't want my child to be born without parents.
I understand that you and your disciple are both peerless people. Will you be the father of my child and bury me under the old plum tree at the back of the mountain? Remember to lift the coffin after 108 days.
Today is the day I'll be buried. I'll come to find you again.”
Li Xiaoyao woke up from a dream. His pale face looked at his master who was sleeping soundly against the wall.
This was too bizarre!
This was the "Ghost Mother" that Master had mentioned!
