The beauty in the coffin

Chapter 2: paper man

Chapter 2: paper man

Jun 04, 2025

The villagers who came over and looked at the strange things at my door were in a mess.

At this point, I dared not hide it and told him everything that my grandfather had done secretly over the years.

My father had been honest all his life, but he couldn't help but kick my grandfather's corpse board in anger.

At this time, my second uncle, who had been working outside for many years, calmed down first and asked me how many skills I had learned from my grandfather over the years.

I said truthfully: "Seven or eight."

My second uncle didn't care whether my grandfather's things were reliable or not, and looked at me and asked: "What should I do now?"

Ah!

What should I do?

I was stunned, but since I promised my grandfather, no matter what happened, I had to come up with an idea.

After calming down, I looked at the female corpse lying flat on the bed, as if she was sleeping, and my mood was a little complicated.

In this situation, burning it with fire is undoubtedly the best choice.

But after so many years, under my grandfather's constant indoctrination and brainwashing, the moment the coffin was opened, I had some inexplicable feelings in my heart.

But even a three-year-old child knows that a dead person cannot be a wife.

I gritted my teeth and made up my mind. I was about to take the female corpse out and burn it while my grandfather was buried, but suddenly I remembered that my grandfather said that the fragrance of the corpse is the fragrance of the elixir.

In other words, the inner elixir has been refined in the female corpse. I am afraid that it has a great origin and cannot be burned.

In the past ten years, my grandfather has taught me a lot of things, but many of them are beginnings and ends.

For a while, my words were stuck in my throat, and my heart became more confused.

My mother took a breath at this time, looked at my second uncle and asked worriedly: "Wa's uncle, his grandfather has always been unreliable, what do you do with Yangyang, a child?"

My father also looked at my second uncle with a worried face.

The second uncle looked at my mother, then looked at my father, and asked with a gloomy face: "Then what do you say we should do?"

My father and mother were speechless.

Second uncle looked at me again.

I took a deep breath.

Grandpa said someone would come to rob, but that might not be today.

I still have time to prepare.

After thinking for a while, I said, "Second uncle, I want to move the female corpse to the old house."

Our old house is on the hillside, far away from the village. It was given to second uncle when the family was divided. It has been empty since he moved to the city.

Second uncle hesitated for a moment and agreed.

My father dismissed the villagers who were watching. While no one was around, I wrapped the female corpse in a black cloth and carried her to the old house.

Second uncle was away from home all year round, and the old house was so dilapidated that it was about to collapse. It could barely shelter from the wind and rain.

I found a room and put the female corpse on the bed without paying attention to hygiene.

Maybe it was because of the wind on the way, the smell of the corpse was much more dispersed when I got here.

After putting down the female corpse, I prepared to go back. After all, grandpa had not been buried yet.

But when I walked to the door and looked at the simple bed, I felt a little reluctant, so I turned back and found a clean sheet in the cabinet.

When changing the bed, there was no place to put the female corpse, so I had to lift her up and pass the sheet under her body.

After tossing and turning, some physical contact was inevitable.

When we were face to face, I was suddenly stunned.

It was not that I had any evil thoughts, but I had a feeling.

Under the black cloth, her eyes seemed to be open.

My heart trembled. It is impossible to resurrect in broad daylight, right?

After hesitating for a while, I carefully uncovered the black cloth.

Even though it was the second time I saw her, I was still shocked by her beauty.

Without makeup, she was as beautiful as an exquisite work of art.

Her thin lips were slightly upturned, with a bit of a weird smile.

I didn't dare to breathe, until I saw her closed eyes, I breathed a sigh of relief.

However, after covering the black cloth, that feeling came back.

Weird!

I haven't experienced any strange things, but I have heard a lot from my grandfather over the years.

It can be said that my worldview has long been different from that of ordinary people.

But when I encountered such a thing, I was still very nervous. I just wanted to go back and bury my grandfather first. After all, the coffin might be a big trouble.

After laying the bed sheet, I sprinkled some plant ash beside the bed to temporarily cover the corpse fragrance, and then prepared to leave.

But as soon as I walked to the door, there was a snap behind me.

I turned around in surprise and saw an ancient book falling beside the bed, which seemed to have fallen from the female corpse.

At the moment I turned around, I felt that under the black cloth, the female corpse's head turned over and faced me.

Hiss!

I took a breath, walked quickly to the bedside to pick up the book on the ground, and didn't dare to look at it any more. I closed my eyes and stuffed it back under the waist of the female corpse, and turned around and left.

I locked the door and sniffed.

The ash is useful, and the corpse smell is much lighter.

The wind is strong in the mountains, and it will probably be blown away in a short time.

If it doesn't blow away...

Whoever wants her can take her away.

That's why I moved her here.

Far away from the village, it won't involve too many people.

If someone takes her away, I won't have any trouble.

Thinking of this, I feel much more relaxed.

As for what grandpa told me, I have to be able to do it.

I don't think he can protect this woman with his little knowledge.

When I got home, my second uncle asked me how it was.

I lied and said that I would have no problem after I took care of grandpa's affairs.

My second uncle didn't say anything.

As for grandpa's funeral, I couldn't participate in it. My second uncle and my father took care of it all.

Maybe because of the female corpse, I didn't have much time to grieve. I hid in the room alone and pulled out my grandfather's box.

My grandfather was a particular person. He didn't have much ability, but he had a lot of things.

There were peach wood swords, compasses, gold and silver swords, and a yellow Taoist robe at the bottom of the box.

I picked for a long time and took the peach wood sword and the gold and silver sword, and put the others back in the box intact.

However, after my careful preparation, my grandfather's funeral was surprisingly peaceful.

Three days later, my grandfather got what he wanted and was buried in the old coffin.

Watching my relatives and friends gradually disperse, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and I thought about the female corpse again.

I thought that after all these days, it was probably taken away by someone.

But at night, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

In the middle of the night, I couldn't help it. While everyone in the family was asleep, I secretly took the gold and silver swords and peach wood swords and went to the old house.

All along the way, I was thinking, if I can protect her, then I will help.

If I can't help, I can only watch.

After all, if what the book says is true, the people attracted by the corpse fragrance will not be good people.

I have never seen any of them, let alone deal with them.

As for my wife...

It would be great to marry one who can breathe in the future.

Thinking about things, I unknowingly reached the mountainside, and a few steps ahead is the old house.

However, at this moment, a group of people came up the path down the mountain.

Judging from the momentum, they are heading straight for my old house.

It's terrible.

What you fear will come true.

I hurriedly squatted down and hid under the ridge of the field.

After a while, the group of people arrived at the door of the old house.

The moonlight also became very bright at this time. When I saw the group of people clearly, I gasped and the hair on the back of my head stood up.

Who are these people?

They were clearly a group of red, green and colorful paper figures with stiff faces.
