Chapter 78 Opening the Coffin

"What's the situation with the seal?" Xiao Xinghua asked.

"The seal is to make him immobilized, unable to come out to harm people." Xiao Fei said, "and also unable to absorb spiritual energy for cultivation, it will be wiped out after seventy-seven forty-nine days. In addition, I believe no one can break my seal. The easiest way. Whether you want to open the coffin or not, you can decide for yourself, after all, I paid you."

"I don't think you can open the coffin!" An old woman said, "Opening the coffin will desecrate the heroic spirit of the ancestors, and you will be blamed. Didn't the little mage say that you can seal it to make it disappear, so why bother?" Woolen cloth?"

"What do you know as a woman?" A villager who looked like her old man immediately objected, "If we don't open the coffin and let us see the evil spirits get rid of with our own eyes, I believe everyone will not feel at ease. As for the seal and so on, Everyone can't see it."

"Yes, yes, we must see the evil spirits being destroyed with our own eyes. We cannot rest assured that the evil spirits will not die for a while."

"He said that no one can break his seal, who knows if it's true?"

Hearing what Xiao Fei said, the villagers started discussing one after another. After all, they still didn't believe that Xiao Fei could seal the evil spirits and let them die. Some people even thought that he said that on purpose because he couldn't deal with evil spirits.

It would be troublesome if he took the money and patted his ass and left, leaving the disaster behind. Therefore, everyone felt that the coffin must be opened.

"It's just digging up the grave of our ancestors, such a major event, we must be cautious." At this time, the village chief frowned and spoke.

The matter of digging up the ancestor's grave was unprecedented. This village has been passed down for hundreds of years, and no one has ever dared to do so. Because that would be to risk the disrespect of the world and disrespect to the ancestors. But if you don't open the coffin, you won't be able to trust Xiao Fei.

"Uncle Hua, you are the most promising person in our village and a big shot. You can make up your own mind about this matter. We will listen to you." The village chief thought for a long time, but he didn't dare to make this decision. Hand over the problem to Xiao Xinghua.

"Yes, yes, we all listen to Uncle Hua." The villagers said. In their minds, Xiao Xinghua was a high-ranking official and one of his own. He will definitely consider the interests of the village, so he deserves everyone's trust.

"En." Xiao Xinghua nodded. In fact, deep down in his heart, he believed in Xiao Fei's ability. Because he knew that Xiao Fei was a master-level powerhouse with good character, so it was impossible for him to tell lies. Solving the problem without digging up the ancestor's grave is of course the best choice. But he could also see that these villagers didn't believe in Xiao Fei, and wanted to open the coffin wholeheartedly.

So I stood up straight and said to the villagers: "Fellow folks, although I, Xiao Xinghua, have been a modest official in the government, my main responsibility is to serve the people. So I can't engage in bureaucracy and talk about it. Democracy must be promoted. How about this, everyone is from Xiaojia Village and has the right to speak, so let’s vote with a show of hands.”

Xiao Xinghua is worthy of being a government official, and his words are level: "If you agree to open the coffin, please raise your hand!"

So a group of villagers, most of them raised their hands, only a few old women did not raise their hands. However, their opinions have not been taken seriously, because they are all "women".

"That's good! Since everyone agrees, let's open the coffin." Xiao Xinghua said helplessly, "But before we open the coffin, we must first worship our ancestors and confess our sins to him."

So, under the leadership of Xiao Xinghua and the village chief, a group of people from Xiaojia Village began to worship. More than a dozen villagers knelt in front of the grave and held a simple prostration ceremony. Afterwards, incense was lit, and rich offerings were placed.

Modern worship etiquette is much simpler than before, that is, kneeling down and lighting incense. But today they are going to break ground, so everyone is extraordinarily pious.

"Ancestor, your descendants have offended you today. I hope you have a spirit in heaven, don't blame me!" After prostrating, the village chief said, "Everyone is going to open the coffin and set off firecrackers!"

A villager lit firecrackers according to his words, and the crackling resounded through the mountains.

After the firecrackers went off, a few stronger villagers started digging graves. These villagers are only in their fifties, and they are rural people, so they still have strength. Unlike before, rural people in the past had to work in their 70s and 80s, but now they can live in their hometowns when they are in their fifties. And here is a development zone, everyone is very rich.

Those hoes and shovels are also brought with you, because in the past, when going to the grave, everyone would strengthen the grave and add some soil to the grave of the ancestors to show respect.

Finally digging! ?

The old ladies in the village, Lin Xiaowu and the others watched from afar. The old ladies were very nervous, but Lin Xiaowu and the others were extremely excited.

Several villagers were tired of digging, so they switched to another dial, digging in turn. After about an hour of digging, the tomb had been dug up, revealing a dark coffin.

...

"Everyone retreat ten feet away from the coffin." Xiao Fei said with a solemn expression when he saw a cloud of black air condense in the sky just after the coffin was exposed to the ground. As a result, the villagers digging graves retreated one after another.

They also seemed to feel the strange atmosphere. When they just dug out the coffin, they felt a biting cold air blowing out. Under the scorching sun, they all felt very cold. Inside that pitch-black coffin, there seemed to be something terrifying.

"Quack, quack, quack!" A crow flew to the sycamore tree again, screaming non-stop, which made the villagers even more frightened. As for Lan Yudie and the others, they couldn't help feeling nervous.

Xiao Fei raised his head and glanced at the crow, knowing it well. The crow is the messenger of the underworld, and it comes in pursuit of death. They all show up whenever something big and ominous happens.

"Little brother, Xiao Liu's skills are not bad, do you want him to stay and help you?" Xiao Xinghua seemed to sense the seriousness of the situation, and said to Xiao Fei.

"No need!" However, Xiao Fei shook his head. Instead, he turned around and faced the three girls, "Yudie, come here!"

Lan Yudie is his apprentice, of course he wants to take advantage of this rare opportunity to train her.

"Call me over..." Lan Yudie pointed at herself, seeing that everyone was hiding far away, the atmosphere was very tense, and she was a little scared.

"I told you to come here, just come here!" Xiao Fei said seriously.

"Okay." Lan Yudie had no choice but to move and walked over.

Instead of letting adults help, let a little girl go over instead? The villagers were dumbfounded at this moment, and everyone shook their heads, thinking that this little monk was very unreliable.
