Chapter 385: Get up, it's your turn to keep vigil
Shen Yu listened to her roar quietly.
He originally planned to capture her, bring her back to headquarters, and let the people in the institute study her carefully.
Let’s see what caused her appearance and whether it can be replicated.
However, after hearing her words, Shen Yu changed his mind.
Just consider it as his last conscience towards the "experimental subject".
Let her take revenge before taking action.
……
In the end, the three newlyweds could only stay in the mourning hall trembling with fear and continue their work as vigil keepers.
Of course, this time, a senior person stayed nearby to keep an eye on their situation at all times.
The other three senior experts still need to go to other places to look for clues. After all, since a supernatural incident has occurred in this small town, it means that there is some hidden story behind it.
This is the case with most supernatural copies.
They need to find the reasons behind it.
And these questions cannot be answered simply by asking the townspeople.
Because these damn NPCs are all tight-lipped about outsiders, treating them like bad guys who want to kill them.
Of course, it is also possible that they have done something bad and want to cover up something out of human instinct.
Li Yue sat back on the bench.
The man who was hanging on the beam had been lowered down and was lying with the coffin. His body was covered with only a white cloth. The cloth was very short and could only cover his head and body.
A pair of legs were exposed like that.
Without the obstruction of the coffin, it is even more obvious that there is indeed a dead person in the mourning hall.
There were two of them lying down at once.
If the person keeping vigil is not brave enough, he will probably have nightmares for several days after returning home.
Generally, the people who keep vigil are the immediate family members of the deceased, such as sons, daughters, grandsons, daughters-in-law, and granddaughters-in-law.
However, when doing business outside, the second brother, who is less superstitious, does not believe in this. He prefers to leave it to professionals.
After all, he spent so much money to hire a funeral director. If the funeral director didn't do a good job, wouldn't it be a waste of money?
People who work in this industry have a yin destiny. There is also a saying among the people that letting such people guard the spirits of the elderly is also accumulating virtue for them. The elderly will have a better life in the netherworld, and can also bless their descendants or be reborn into a good family.
Of course, these reincarnations are definitely not professionals. This is probably the setting of the dungeon.
Anyway, the reincarnationists have to keep vigil.
Li Yue sat on a small stool. Although she knew there was no body behind her, she felt a chill on her back and the hairs on her hands stood on end.
She even had a phantom sensation, always feeling that something was pressing against her back.
It was as if... the toes of the corpse hanging on the beam were pressing against her back.
Li Yue had to burn paper money for a while, then turned around and looked back.
Her back was the wall, nothing at all.
She took out a bag of paper money from the bag next to her.
After unpacking it, he took out a stack and lit it with a match, watching it slowly burn out in the brazier.
Fortunately, there wasn't much time left after those incidents.
At two o'clock, their night watch mission was over, and it was the turn of the next group of newcomers to take over.
They waited for several minutes.
Those newcomers haven't arrived yet.
"Did you oversleep?"
"Do you want to go and call them?"
Li Yue stood up and said, "I'll go. It's okay for me to stop here for a while."
"Okay, then go call them."
"Really? It's amazing that they can sleep so soundly in this dungeon."
“I never slept well before.”
The two looked at the sacrificial basin and found that the candle was still burning steadily.
Their buttocks were sore from sitting for so long, and the mourning hall was filled with waves of gloomy energy. They felt their hands and feet were cold, their buttocks were sore, and their whole bodies felt unwell.
I don’t even dare to stand up and move my body.
They didn't dare look at the coffin or the corpse on the ground.
You can only look towards the spiritual platform in front.
The photo on the altar was still upside down, and because it was stained with blood, no one dared to step forward to lift it up.
Who knows what will happen after touching it.
The newcomers didn't dare to do anything that the seniors didn't allow them to do.
And nothing happened after such a long time, which means it doesn’t matter whether the photos fell or not.
They are not truly filial sons and grandchildren who would risk their lives to protect the old man's photo.
The two quickly looked away.
"How long has it been now?"
"Almost ten minutes, right?"
"Why hasn't she come back yet?"
"Is nothing going to happen?"
"hold on."
……
As soon as Li Yue went out, she felt her body warm up. Her hands and feet, which were originally cold, gradually became calmer. It was not her illusion. It was really much colder inside the mourning hall than outside.
It's not very obvious inside, but you can see the difference as soon as you leave the mourning hall.
She rubbed her arms and walked towards the house where the newlyweds were resting.
At this time, most of the lights in the town are turned off.
There was only one house with lights on, which must be the family holding the funeral.
I don’t know if the funeral will continue after something like this happened in the mourning hall?
It should be done.
After all, if we don’t do it, wouldn’t it anger the deceased even more?
If... the one who killed Li Laoer was really Mr. Li.
Based on her experience of watching movies, Li Yue believed that the person who killed Li Laoer might not be Li Laoye.
After all, as mentioned before, Mr. Li's death was a happy one, and his sons arranged such a decent funeral for him. Although they did not keep vigil for him, they did invite professionals to do so.
Even if Mr. Li was dissatisfied, at most he would go into his son's dream to teach him a lesson, beat him a few times and scold him a few times, but he would never kill his son.
However, Mr. Li was probably a man with a bad temper and the final say at home, otherwise he would not be afraid that his father would take him to the underworld.
Only someone who is always afraid of his father would behave like this.
But considering the era and the remoteness of this place, it seems very normal.
The town was in darkness, unlike later times, where even at night there were streetlights lighting the roads.
It is now pitch dark, with only the moonlight in the sky providing a glimmer of light.
In addition, Li Yue was not familiar with the road conditions, and she almost got lost in the town.
After finally finding a house to rest in, she went over and knocked on the door.
"Wake up, it's your turn to attend the wake."
After knocking for a long time, there was a response from inside.
"I'm coming."
"What are you urging?"
A few newlyweds opened the door and walked out with sleepy faces.
"It's time so soon?"
Li Yue: "It's two o'clock. Come with me to the funeral hall."
On the way, Li Yue was struggling over whether to tell them what happened in the mourning hall, but then she thought that there was another body lying in the mourning hall, and they would find it after they went there.
So he told them what had happened.
