Chapter 449 Don’t go out after dark (please subscribe, please collect, please monthly vote, please recommend votes)
According to ancient folk customs, the colors of coffins are divided into five types: red, white, black and gold.
There is something special about it. For example, an old man who has passed away is mourning, so he uses a red coffin.
Those who died suddenly, or died unexpectedly, would use a black coffin.
Because poor families cannot afford coffins, most of them wrap their bodies with straw mats or just use a few wooden boards to make simple coffins, and these happen to be yellow, so the poor families use yellow coffins.
Gold coffins are naturally the preserve of the rich, but in ancient times most of them were just coated with a layer of gold paint. Nowadays, even ghosts can enjoy this benefit.
As for the last type of white coffin, it is only used by unmarried women and unmarried men.
If according to Li Yuan, the coffin was prepared for the elderly at home, logically speaking, the red coffin should be prepared.
But the coffin here is black and has a deep color, which makes people feel uncomfortable at first glance.
And according to him, every household in the village has such a coffin. It would be a bit intriguing if they were all black.
Su Yuan tried to use his ghost eyes to penetrate the obstruction of the coffin, but at this moment, he found strangely that the ghost eyes could not see through the situation in the coffin, and he couldn't help but change his color slightly.
Sure enough... abnormalities still exist in this weird village.
Just when he was about to open the coffin to find out what was going on, Li Yuan shouted towards the kitchen where the smoke was rising: "Mother, there are guests at home today, please cook two more dishes."
At this time, there was movement in the room, and then a woman who looked to be in her thirties came out.
This woman does not look much different from ordinary rural women. She has the smell of firewood clearly lingering around her body, and she has obviously just been cooking in the kitchen.
She gave Su Yuan an apologetic smile, then grabbed her man and dragged him into the house.
"You damn ghost, why do you bring everything to your house? You know that there is not much food at home, what are you going to do to greet the guests now?"
"Damn, you bitch, how old are you? I have something to order. I don’t have any food to borrow. It’s not like I won’t pay it back. Go to the butcher shop in the village and borrow some meat. There seems to be a pig slaughter there today. I’ll get more fresh pig head meat and pig ears for the food and drinks. Today It’s rare for guests to come to Tian’s house, so I have to entertain them tonight.”
“Let me tell you, this little brother is from outside. You can tell he is very talented at first glance. He is from the village. You are a distinguished guest, and you cannot be neglected.”
“You damn devil, it’s easy to say that if I borrow something from someone else, I’ll pay it back when the time comes.”
"Hey, you are such a stupid bitch. Go borrow it from Lao Wang's house next door. His wife died early and has been single for a long time. If you go and borrow it, you can definitely get it!"
Although we are two People were hiding in the back room talking, but their voices were not muted at all, so that Su Yuan didn't even hear them outside.
Su Yuan: “???”
This doesn’t sound right!
Let your wife borrow something from Lao Wang’s house next door?
Didn’t this mean that I had found a piece of green Hulunbeit prairie for myself?
Is there such a generous man these days?
Hearing this, Su Yuan couldn't sit still.
He didn’t want others to make such a big sacrifice because of himself.
What's more, does he really dare not eat the food here?
He quickly dissuaded this couple from entertaining him.
To be honest, with Su Yuan's current condition, not eating or drinking for a short period of time is not a problem, not to mention that he has a certain amount of daily necessities in Kayako's haunted house.
I can’t say how long he can last, but judging from his physique and the amount of food reserves, living alone in the wild for half a year is not a problem.
In other words, even if you are trapped in a supernatural place, there will be no problems for a short time.
Su Yuan said that he brought his own dry food and did not need it.
But Li Yuan was very stubborn. He was hospitable and would invite Su Yuan to have a meal at home no matter what. He almost rushed his mother-in-law to Lao Wang's house next door.
Seeing his mother-in-law twisting her waist and leaving, Li Yuan smiled honestly at Honest and said: "Come on, come on, little brother, hurry into the house and stop standing in the yard. Come in and have a sip of hot tea.”
Looking at Li Yuan’s hospitable smile, Su Yuan always felt that this honest and honest man always wore strong colors on his head.
"Come on, little brother, tell me what's going on in the outside world now. People in the countryside like me are very curious. Who is the emperor outside now..."
This conversation lasted for a long time.
The weather lasted from afternoon to dusk, and it was about to get dark. Li Yuan's wife went to Lao Wang's house next door, but she disappeared.
There has been no sign of coming back.
Logically speaking, the village is not big, and the neighbor Lao Wang’s house is not far away, so it won’t take so long.
Perhaps Li Yuan's wife had such a good relationship with Lao Wang that she borrowed too many things at one time and forgot the time to go home and cook.
But Li Yuan couldn't sit still. From his honest point of view, this wouldn't work!
How could you keep the guests waiting for so long?
So he hurriedly showed an apologetic smile to Su Yuan.
“I’m sorry, little brother, my mother-in-law has committed some stupid thing and she hasn’t come back yet. It must be that scoundrel guy Lao Wang who has been pestering her for a long time and won’t let her come back. Please wait a moment. Wait a moment, I will call her back to cook now."
After that, he stood up and hurriedly went to the neighbor's house next door to find Lao Wang.
Su Yuan: “…………”
But when he was about to step out of the door, the farm man seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly lit the oil lamp in the room, and said to Su Yuan:
"By the way, little brother, you are a foreigner. Maybe you still don’t know the taboos in the village. There are rules in the village that you must not do it after dark. Go out and remember, I have to find my mother-in-law before it gets dark, otherwise she will have to spend the night at Lao Wang's house tonight."
"..."
Before Su Yuan could answer, he ran out in a flash, running so fast that no one had time to stop him.
At this time, Su Yuan was the only one left in the room.
Because of its orientation, the room was always filled with a lingering coldness. The candlelight of the oil lamp flickered, and the orange light could not illuminate the entire room. On the contrary, it cast shadows around it, adding to the darkness. A weird feeling.
Coupled with the black coffin placed in the center of the room, under this situation, no matter how you look at it, it makes people feel terrible.
It's like a scene from a horror movie.
At this time, Su Yuan also smelled a strange smell.
Looking along the source of the smell, his eyes quickly focused on the oil lamp that Li Yuan had lit before leaving.
Su Yuan walked over, took a look at the oil in the oil lamp, and frowned.
Because it is... corpse oil. (End of this chapter)
