Chapter 1 Digging the Grave

My name is Li Tianci. I am eighteen years old this year. I have been dependent on my grandfather since I was a child.

I have never been very timid since I was a child, and I am the kind of honest child. However, on my 18th birthday, I did something bold.

Dig a grave!

It’s not about moving the graves for others, but about digging them secretly.

I refused this kind of activity that harms my good deeds at the beginning, but in the end I couldn't resist the temptation of money.

This matter starts a few days ago.

After the college entrance examination, I returned to the village from the town. I thought I would take advantage of the two months of summer vacation to go out for a short-term job and subsidize my family income, someone came to me.

The one who came to me was Li Hu, a good brother who I played with since childhood. He had poor academic performance and stopped going to school after graduating from junior high school. He went out to make a living and would only go home during festivals.

This time, I don’t know why, but I came back at this time. When my good brothers met, I naturally had endless things to say. Not long after chatting, Li Hu secretly said that he had a plan to make money and asked me if I dare to do it.

It is not easy to make money these days. My family’s family is not very good. The source of income depends entirely on the shroud shop that my grandfather opened in the town. The university expenses must be quite large, and I want to reduce the burden on my grandfather.

I asked Li Hu what happened, and this guy secretly told me to wait for him at the village head three days later.

After that day, it was ten o'clock in the evening. Grandpa was already asleep. I sneaked out of the monk and arrived at the village entrance. Li Hu was already waiting for me while smoking a cigarette. After seeing me coming, Li Hu directly slapped out the cigarette butts in his hand and took me out of the village.

Walking eastward, it didn't take long to come to a small hill.

This hill is called Miaoshan by our locals. It is actually a larger hill with an altitude of only more than 100 meters. Few people come to this place because this mountain is a circle of graves. People from several surrounding villages, their ancestors are buried here, and there are hundreds of tombs here.

It's gloomy in broad daylight, not to mention at night.

I asked Li Hu what he wanted to do with a trembling trembling. He took out a big bag from the pile of grass, carried it on his body, and handed me a small shovel.

When I learned from him that I was going to dig a grave, my first reaction was to turn around and leave.

"100,000 yuan!" Seeing that I was leaving, Li Hu said directly: "Godci, don't say that my brother doesn't take care of you, we brothers are here to keep our relationship here. After helping my brother, we will pay 100,000 yuan directly. We earn 100,000 yuan in one night. Where can we find such a good thing?"

I stopped and turned my head to look at Li Hu, very confused.

One hundred thousand yuan is an astronomical figure for me. Not to mention anything else, at least the expenses for four years of college should be guaranteed. Without hesitation for too long, this money tempted me too much.

I took the shovel from Li Hu's hand and asked him what he wanted to do. He shook his head and said that he couldn't tell me too much, just do what he said.

I followed him up the mountain, surrounded by tombs, and at night, my heart was filled with yin energy.

Not long after, we climbed over the top of the mountain and arrived at the back mountain.

I followed Li Hu and stopped by a new tomb in the back mountain.

This new grave has no tombstone, it is just a small earth tomb with a large stone pressing on it.

This small tomb is from our village, and it is the tomb of Li Crook’s wife at the east end of the village. A few days ago, I heard that she died of dying from labor and did not hold any decent funerals, so I buried it here directly.

Li Hu wants to dig her grave? Why?

I glanced at Li Hu and found that his face was a little strange, seemed a little nervous, and a little excited.

Although he and I have been playing together since childhood, he has been out there in recent years and we have few opportunities to meet. I feel that he is a little different from before.

Li Hu took out three fingers of incense from his big backpack, lit it, and inserted it in front of the grave.

"Tianci, be gentle when you put the shovel in a while!" Li Hu said to me in a low voice: "If you see something strange, don't yell, remember it!"

When he said this, my heart trembled a little, and I had the urge to throw away the shovel in my hand and turn my head home. However, thinking about the reward of 100,000 yuan, I resisted it.

Li Hu and I were lightly holding a small shovel to dig the grave, and the shovel was very light. In this way, it took more than half an hour to dig the small earth grave.

When I saw the coffin in the grave, my eyelids pounded violently.

It was a big red coffin, bright red like blood. There were dozens of red ropes wrapped around this big red coffin, crisscrossing, like a huge net, wrapping the coffin.

Li Hu jumped into the grave, took a deep breath, took out a dagger from his backpack, and directly broke the red rope on the big red coffin. Then, he took out a small crowbar from his backpack, pried off the seven coffin nails on the coffin, and lifted the lid of the coffin.

In the coffin, a female corpse in a white mourning dress was lying quietly there.

The female corpse's face was gray, and corpse spots appeared on her body, with turbid eyes wide open and a ferocious face.

I don’t know if it’s my psychological effect or what’s going on, but I feel a cold breath emanating from the coffin, which makes me shudder.

Li Hu, who was standing in the grave, looked a little pale, his calves were trembling, and he took out three more incense sticks, and after igniting them, he inserted them into the grave.

Li Hu knelt beside the coffin, kowtowed, and whispered something, but I didn't hear it clearly.

Then, Li Hu hurriedly took out a cloth bag more than a foot long from his backpack. When the cloth bag was opened, it turned out to be a dry baby corpse inside.

Li Hu carefully placed the baby's body in the coffin and placed it in the arms of the female corpse. Then Li Hu took a step back and stared at the coffin with his eyes tightly, as if he was looking forward to something.

In the evening, the female corpse in the coffin moved. Her hands covered with corpse spots hugged the dry baby corpse in her arms, and a satisfied smile appeared on her hideous face, which was extremely strange.

After seeing this scene, my scalp numbed out instantly and almost screamed. However, I still remembered what Li Hu said before, covered my mouth directly, widened my eyes, and looked at the scene in the coffin with horror.

After seeing the female corpse like this, Li Hu's face showed ecstasy expression. He hurriedly grabbed the three incense sticks inserted into the grave and carefully approached the female corpse's chin. Li Hu's other hand took out a small bottle and placed it next to the female corpse's chin with a nervous look on his face.

I don’t know if I was dazzled, but I saw that the female corpse actually cooperated and stretched her neck forward.

Under the smoke of the three incense sticks, a black air appeared on the face of the female corpse, and the corpse spots on her face began to spread, and the whole face seemed to be twisted. Her mouth slightly opened, and a light yellow liquid flowed out from the corner of her mouth, and her smoked chin also began to emit the light yellow and disgusting liquid.

Li Hu hurriedly moved the small bottle to the chin of the female corpse with an excited look on his face, and carefully caught the light yellow and slightly disgusting liquid.

The liquid was viscous. When the three incense sticks in Li Hu's hand burned out, the liquid in the small bottle was already half a bottle. The originally swollen face of the female corpse turned into skin and bones at this time, with the dark air on her face very thick, making her look even more ferocious.

Li Hu carefully put away the bottle, kowtowed a few times to the female corpse, and then prepared to cover the coffin lid.

And at this moment, a black shadow flashed and appeared on the red coffin lid.

A black cat!

I don’t know where the black cat came from. The chestnut eyes looked at Li Hu and me. The look made me feel cold all over, as if I had fallen into an ice cellar.

On our side, we all think that things like black cats and black crows are very unlucky, especially if someone dies, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to get close to them.

At this moment, the sudden appearance of black cat made Li Hu and I look ugly. Li Hu waved the shovel in his hand with a gloomy face, trying to drive the black cat away.
