    ?

    Wu Dan said: "Take us to have a look."

    So we walked back again.  Go to the place where the old man appeared just now and take a closer look. There is no sign of the old man. There is a coffin over there, and the coffin is tightly covered.  I saw that something was wrong with the coffin, and I felt a little bit trembling in my heart.  You know, one of the most famous supernatural events in Fengmen Village is the coffin in Fengmen Village.

    It is said that although Fengmen Village is closed and there is no family, the old people in Fengmen Village still insist on the ancient example of being buried here after death.  Therefore, an empty coffin can occasionally be seen in Fengmen Village. After the old man died, the body was sent back to Fengmen Village and buried in the coffin.

    I raised my head and looked around, the vast jungle was desolate, and there was no one in sight.  I looked back at the coffin with the lid tightly closed, thinking about the legends on the Internet, wondering if it was empty, or was there a dead body lying in it?  Just when I was fascinated, I suddenly found that the grass seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost, like a layer of white silver.  It is not surprising that there are many frosts in autumn and winter. In addition, the place is very cloudy and humid all the year round. It is only natural that there is frost and dew.  Just when I looked back, I suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the empty coffin.  The sound seemed to be the sound of human breathing, but it was more like the sound of exhaling.

    I was taken aback, so I couldn't help but stop and look at the coffin again.  At this moment, I saw that the coffin seemed to have opened a crack, and through the crack, there seemed to be a red light spot inside.

    I rubbed my eyes vigorously, and then stretched my head to look there. Yes, there was a red dot flickering in the gap.  When was the coffin opened?  Is this red dot a flying insect, like a firefly or something?  But why didn't I hear the sound of the coffin opening?

    At this moment, I suddenly heard a few clear coughs from the place where the red dot was on and off.  In this quiet village, the cough sounded clearly, like an elderly old man coughing violently there. I could even clearly feel that the old man coughed so hard that he covered his chest and even spit out a mouthful of phlegm.  !

    I took a step back and stopped where I was.  At this time, Wu Dan saw that I hadn't followed, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

    "Master, there seems to be someone in the coffin." I said.

    "People with peat, if someone is dead, there is no movement at all." Wu Dan frowned and said: "Let's not worry about these, let's solve the problem between you two first."

    "Who and whose problem?" I asked suspiciously.

    "Xiao Zhao and you, don't you two find out that you have a problem?" Wu Dan sighed: "Come with me, it will be even more troublesome if it is late!"

    When I heard this, I was furious: "What's the problem, he's sick, right?! It's okay, who the fuck are you showing that stinky face to!!"

    Ruan Lingxi was taken aback by my voice: "What are you calling, you two? I think you are just crazy, why are you getting angry when you have nothing to do? Are you in menopause?"

    I tried my best to suppress my anger, but I still felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, and my anger was boiling.  Thinking about it this way, it is indeed the case. Usually I am not a person who likes to get angry. Although my temper is a little short, it is still rare to directly conflict with others.

    I suppressed my anger, but when I saw Zhao Yu sneering at me with an idiot look, I became even more angry.  At this time, my mind became hot, and I suddenly felt that my mind went blank. I didn't know when I took out my pistol and pointed it at Zhao Yu.

    Ruan Lingxi shouted from the side: "You are crazy!"

    At this moment, I saw Zhao Yu also took out his pistol and pointed at me, and the two of them fell into a confrontation immediately.

    Duan Yunyao took a step forward, stood in front of Zhao Yu, and said, "You two uncles, don't fall into the middle school again, okay? Aren't you two good gay friends? Why did you quarrel?"

    Ruan Lingxi grabbed my hand holding the gun and shouted: "Put down the gun! It will hurt people!"

    However, the anger in my heart could not be dispelled. At this moment, I saw the red dot slowly flying out of the coffin.  Nima's, it seems to be Mars.  I gritted my teeth, and squeezed the trigger tightly with both hands, thinking that it doesn't matter whether there is a monster or a ghost in his mother's coffin, anyway, I am very angry now, so I will shoot him first!

    Thinking of this, I turned around and shot three times at the coffin.  Three groups of flames exploded, a gust of wind blew, the flames flew wildly, and the sparks jumped so high that they almost scalded my face.

    After firing three shots, my mood finally calmed down. Thinking of the scene just now, I felt a chill in my heart.  Look at the crackling fire of the coffin, and the gloomy, oppressive sky.  However, the fire did not completely burn the coffin, and finally gradually extinguished.  I stepped forward and looked in through the crack, and there was nothing inside, just an empty coffin.

      While I was in a daze, the coffin suddenly closed the lid with a bang, which startled me.  A burst of dust flew up, blinding my eyes, and I couldn't help jumping and cursing.

    Ruan Lingxi frowned and said, "What happened to you today, it seems like a different person."

    I scolded: "Damn it, Zhao Yu is like a different person, why don't you talk about him?!"

    After hearing this, Ruan Lingxi's expression darkened immediately, and she opened her mouth to scold me, but Wu Dan hurriedly stopped her and said, "Okay, okay! It's not that I've changed, but that I've been possessed by evil spirits. Come with me and find the mask  Urgent, hurry up!"

    Only the few of us followed him forward.  This time, no one spoke.  I also kept my mouth shut, so as not to have any conflict with Zhao Yu.

    When walking on the road, I suddenly thought of a question.  In Fengmen Village, the electronic signal will be interrupted, and the compass will also fail. Does this mean that there may be mineral deposits underneath, and they affect the accuracy of electronic communication equipment?  In other words, it may also be because the underground mineral deposits have affected the magnetic field here, so the magnetic field here is relatively chaotic, which may help to breed ghosts?

    If there are mineral deposits underground, I hope it is a gold mine.  Hire someone to mine it myself, and create a golden mountain. Damn it, I'm not afraid that I won't be able to afford a garage and a wife.

    I was thinking wildly, but I saw Ruan Lingxi walked up to Wu Dan and asked, "Uncle Wu, I think there is something wrong with Erhuo and Zhao Yu. Could it be that there is something wrong with the mask?"

    "Go and have a look first, I think it's probably caused by that thing." Wu Dan said: "I heard that there is such a funeral custom in some remote areas: many people are buried with masks when they die. Because it is for funerals  The masks are all black and white, and they are smiling masks, which express comfort to the relatives of the deceased, and indicate that the deceased walked away peacefully with a smile on his face. Of course, this is just a legend. However, there is another kind of people who wear masks when they are buried."

    Ruan Lingxi immediately asked: "Who is it? It's strange to wear a mask."

    Wu Dan said: "The ancient Khitan people. However, the custom of burying the dead with a mask has a long history and is quite common. It appeared in the Central Plains as early as the pre-Qin period.  Jade coverings have been unearthed, but there is no actual metal texture. The origin of the metal masks of the Khitan ethnic group should have nothing to do with the Han area, and it is most likely a continuation of the Donghu ethnic custom. As early as the end of the Shang Dynasty and the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty to the middle of the Warring States period, the Donghu ethnic group once created  In the cemetery of the upper Xiajiadian culture in Zhoujiadi, Aohan Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, the face of the owner of the tomb was covered with sackcloth decorated with bronze and turquoise in the shape of facial features, which can be regarded as the origin of the metal mask.  , as the descendants of Donghu, the Khitan people inherited and developed the customs of Donghu, and created complete metal masks. Metal masks and mesh masks were relatively rare in the tombs of the early Liao Dynasty, and gradually increased in the middle and late periods. Common people were buried with  If you can¡¯t afford a metal mask, it¡¯s possible to use other materials instead.¡±

    I listened to him talking for a while, but I was in a fog.  Ruan Lingxi grasped the point, and asked, "Uncle Wu, you mean that the original villagers here are probably descendants of Khitan?"

    Wu Dan sighed: "I don't know, I can't be sure based on this alone, but if the mask was really used in funerals, it would probably have something to do with the Khitan people. Maybe the earliest villagers were Khitan descendants, or some people who have a relationship with Khitan  people."

    I listened to it from the side, and said with a smile: "Master, what you said is the same as talking about Tianlong Babu. It's about Khitan and Qiao Feng."

    Wu Dan said: "Don't believe me, it's really possible. Let's go to the temple later to see if there are any clues. I always feel that this may be inextricably linked with the Khitan people."

    At this time, we walked to the door of the collapsed house.  At this time, the door was still ajar, and I knew the mask was inside, so I said to Wu Dan: "Master, the mask is inside, let's rush in and have a look?"

    Wu Dan glared at me, and scolded: "Little bk has no brains, no wonder you are bewitched and don't know it. If this mask is really for funerals, and it is in this ghost village, there must be deep resentment. Don't be reckless."

    With that said, he took out a mirror.  When I looked at the mirror, I felt a little impressed.  Think about it carefully, damn it, isn¡¯t this the broken mirror that Wu Dan bought at the ghost market last time? It¡¯s a retro Chinese style, so I bought it for collection. It¡¯s actually a cheap item, but it looks like an old-fashioned thing.

    "Master, what are you doing with this mirror?" I asked.

    Wu Dan said: "Haven't you and Xiao Zhao discovered that you have something extra on your body?"

    "Ah?" I checked myself up and down, and asked Ruan Lingxi, "Is there something on my face?"

    Ruan Lingxi looked at me and snorted coldly: "No, it's still that cheap face."

    "Master, what do I have?" I asked.

    Wu Dan looked at Zhao Yu and me, and said coldly, "Mask."

    "Mask?" I was startled, remembering the mask on the beam, and suddenly understood what those long nails on the beam were for.  Those are the coffin nails, the coffin nails.  And that rope seems to bind the coffin, I rely on it.

    In addition, the masks are for funerals, so they are really complete.  However, I touched my face, and there was nothing abnormal at all, so what does Wu Dan mean by the mask?  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)?: "No, it's still that mean face."

    "Master, what do I have?" I asked.

    Wu Dan looked at Zhao Yu and me, and said coldly, "Mask."

    "Mask?" I was startled, remembering the mask on the beam, and suddenly understood what those long nails on the beam were for.  Those are the coffin nails, the coffin nails.  And that rope seems to bind the coffin, I rely on it.
