The fat man looked at Lin Qianqian, who was extremely excited, with complicated eyes. A strange emotion suddenly涌ed into his heart, with disgust, helplessness, and a trace of luck.

How great it would be if all the night watchmen were like this, he and the doctor wouldn't have had to go through so much hardship along the way.

But then he realized that even someone like Lin Qianqian was far beyond his ability to deal with. Besides, Lin Qianqian wasn't like this when she first came in. She hid it very well, and almost killed him and the doctor with the alarm clock with Ding Zhenzong's cooperation.

She was forced into this by the doctor step by step.

But for such a person, the fat man had no pity, only hatred, because too many innocent lives had been taken away by them, including his own family and friends.

The day of severance is coming soon, the fat man can already feel it.

"Ah... ah ah!"

The piercing scream interrupted the fat man's thoughts. Lin Qianqian screamed like crazy. The situation was developing exactly as they had predicted. The head evil spirit, after being hit hard, suddenly jumped up and slammed into Lin Qianqian fiercely.

Lin Qianqian was knocked to the ground by the huge force. The head evil spirit opened its mouth wide and bit at her. As if possessed, Lin Qianqian held the knife horizontally, and a mouthful of sharp teeth bit on the blade, making a "creak creak" sound.

Now, even if Lin Qianqian was stupid, she knew she had been tricked. She pushed hard, abandoning the knife, pushed the head away, and ran away, "Mr. Luo... Mr. Luo, save me!"

But it wasn't so easy to escape. The corners of the head evil spirit's mouth were torn by the blade, leaving a huge wound on its face. It still refused to let her go, chasing after her relentlessly.

Just as the head evil spirit knocked Lin Qianqian down for the second time, intending to tear open her neck, Luo Tianhe arrived. He lifted the red cloth covering Master Wu's corpse's face and directly扣ed it on the head evil spirit's face.

A bizarre scene happened. The red cloth seemed to be glued on, and no matter how the head evil spirit struggled, it couldn't break free, rolling wildly on the ground, making hoarse sounds as if its throat was blocked.

Until the end, it stopped moving, as if it had completely suffocated.

Lin Qianqian crawled and hid behind Luo Tianhe, her whole body scared out of her wits.

But things were far from over, one wave had barely subsided when another rose. "Quick, get that red cloth back!" Yuan Shanyuan吼ed loudly. It was rare for everyone to see the old man so失态.

But as their gazes turned, the scene before them made everyone's heart twitch fiercely. They saw Master Wu, who was originally lying peacefully in the coffin, had already sat up at some point.

"Qi Sha (rising corpse) is happening..."

Li Bai ignored anyone who tried to stop her and rushed straight towards the coffin, while Luo Tianhe on the other side seemed to be telepathically connected with Li Bai, and猛地提起 the head evil spirit wrapped in red cloth and threw it towards Li Bai.

Catching the head evil spirit, Li Bai tore off the red cloth, threw the already sleeping head evil spirit into the coffin, and then quickly抖开了 the red cloth, like盖盖头, covering Master Wu's head.

At this time, Master Wu had already raised his upper body, looking like he was about to stand up, but as the red cloth盖顶, Master Wu's originally straightened body gradually softened.

At this time, Luo Tianhe had already dealt with the last head evil spirit,提着 the head forward, first throwing the head into the coffin, then gently knocking on the edge of the coffin with the back of the pig-slaughtering knife, and Master Wu's body fell into the coffin in response.

But everyone saw clearly that the red盖头 covering his face moved slightly, as if the corpse exhaled its last breath.

"Without this red cloth to隔绝 yang qi, Master Wu's corpse will Qi Sha."

Luo Tianhe glanced at Li Bai with interest, as if with deep meaning, and said, "I didn't expect Miss Li Bai to have such insight at such a young age. I was blind."

At this time, Yuan Shanyuan also gently捋着 his beard and walked forward, "I'm old, I can't compare to you young people. I didn't even react when the corpse Qi Sha just now."

"Mr. Yuan is too modest."

Li Bai replied neither humble nor arrogant. Although things happened suddenly just now, everyone's eyes were not blind. Yuan Shanyuan was the first to issue a warning, but he was also the fastest to run away.

When Li Bai rushed forward, Yuan Shanyuan was taking Bai Yu back.

He had done such a thing just now, but now he shamelessly said that he didn't react. The fat man felt that this old guy's face was probably thicker than his methods.

But now this is not the most important thing. Li Bai looked at the corpse and couldn't help but worry, "Master Wu's corpse has already Qi Sha. I'm afraid we won't be able to take this corpse away tonight with ordinary methods."

"Even if we can get it out of the door, something strange will inevitably happen on the road."

Hearing that the consequences were so serious, Lin Qianqian's face was pale, and she didn't dare to say a word more. If it wasn't for her recklessness, everyone wouldn't have fallen into such a situation.

Speaking of this, Luo Tianhe's face also became serious, and he nodded, "You're right, if we want to have peace on the road tonight, we may have to ban ba xian (act as the Eight Immortals)."

The saying of ban ba xian was novel, the fat man had never heard of it, Yao Shunyu explained: "It means the coffin lifters, also called ba guan (holding the coffin), some places call it tai zhong (lifting heavy), different places have different names, but insiders generally respectfully call them ba xian."

"Ba xian refers to a team of eight people who lift the coffin. The ba xian have a clear division of labor. The most knowledgeable person is in charge of the head of the coffin, followed by the body of the coffin, and finally the person with the strongest eight characters in the team is responsible for pressing down on the tail of the coffin."

"That is to say, all eight of us have to dress up as ba xian tonight?"

Hearing the fat man's words, Yao Shunyu shook his head, "It's not that simple, this ban ba xian is different from ordinary ba xian. If the ba xian need to dress up, it means they have encountered a tricky business."

"For example, the owner's family died in a disaster or含冤而死 (died with grievance), the corpse is incomplete, or even..." Yao Shunyu paused, looking at Master Wu's coffin with a vigilant look, "Or even there are signs of rising corpse, this dangerous method will be used."

"Ban ba xian has no fixed appearance, but it is said that there are two points to follow. First, the appearance must be fierce, so that it can震慑住 the lonely souls and野鬼 who follow the coffin to ask for incense and paper money. Second, the face must be covered, and the appearance must never be revealed, that is to say, your original face cannot be exposed."

"I understand this, it's to worry that the passing孤魂野鬼 will recognize us as people, so they are not afraid of us, and they will mess with the coffin on the road, right?" The fat man nodded repeatedly, feeling that he had grasped the essence.

Unexpectedly, Yao Shunyu stared at him for a few seconds, and then shook his head, "No, this is a rule established to protect the coffin lifters, because most of the corpses that can be used for ban ba xian funerals have already生异, and the resentment is滔天. These evil things have deep resentment towards the coffin lifters who sealed them in the coffin. Once their faces are seen by them, they may be haunted at night."

Thinking of Master Wu's corpse coming back every night to make the entire Wu family restless, the fat man immediately decided that he must honestly cover his face tonight and never give the evil spirits a chance.

"I understand the道理, but have you ever thought about it, there are three women among us, women lifting the coffin... is a big taboo." Jiang Chen suddenly said.
