The so-called finding a treasure trove of geomantic omen and burying the dead is nothing more than letting the dead go to another space peacefully and never come back to disturb the people in the world.
Geomantic treasures are often hard to find. There may be one place in a city, or there may be one place in dozens of miles, and the area is not necessarily large. Therefore, once there is a geomantic treasure, most of them will be cemeteries.
Where there is a cemetery, there will be a vigil. Perhaps this vigil is not a human being. Its duty is to prevent the soul of this cemetery from being lost again.
Here's a story about a "wake".
1.
It's been a week since Ding Ming woke up.
Lying in a hospital bed, she is extremely weak now. Looking at the familiar faces around her, she is full of caring eyes. Ding Ming suddenly feels good to be alive. She looks at her mother's tired and bloodshot eyes and gives her a comforting smile to let her know that she is all right and will not do stupid things again.
Ding Ming closed his eyes and remembered what happened a week ago. It was a terrible nightmare.
A week ago, Ding Ming was a designer who had just been fired from a listed company, but the reason for his dismissal was actually betrayed by his favorite girlfriend who worked in the same office. When I knew the truth, I found that I had nothing left. My savings and all my works did not belong to me, not even the house I lived in. I was also accused of going to court and paying a huge fine in the name of theft.
overnight, there was no place for Ding Ming in this city, and he was ashamed to face his parents living in the countryside. Desperate, Ding Ming thought of death, so he bought a bottle of pesticides, sleeping pills and a bottle of wine with only a few tens of dollars on him and took a bus to the famous suicide forest in this city.
Ding Ming didn't want to die too hard. He took sleeping pills, then drank a little pesticide and a bottle of high-concentration wine, and let himself end his life in a drunken dream. Ding Ming, who grew up in the countryside, is also a little superstitious. He hopes that he will be buried after death. He knows that there is a cemetery near the suicide forest, and he should not be lonely when he dies there.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the night has fallen. Ding Ming took sleeping pills and took a few mouthfuls of pesticides in front of a tombstone. It was too bad to drink, so he got drunk alone. After drinking the last drop of wine, the dizzy Ding Ming suddenly smiled and said to the unmarked tombstone, "Elder, I didn't mean to disturb your sleep. I died here. I hope I can talk to you after I go down."
It turns out that the process of death is really not so terrible, like a dream. Ding Ming felt dizzy and sleepy. After closing his eyes, he was unconscious.
I don't know how long it took. Ding Ming felt someone calling him and touching his body, as if to wake him up. Ding Ming opened his eyes, and a grandfather in a Chinese tunic suit looked at him with empty eyes. Ding Ming got a fright, sat up and looked at this "weirdo", and then looked around. He was sitting in the cemetery, with a door at his feet, which attracted him inexplicably. There were some "figures" in the cemetery, some sitting in front of the cemetery, some rubbing tombstones, and most of them were "people".
Ding Mingcai remembered that he should be dead, but now he is a ghost. Laughing at myself, I looked at the uncle in the Chinese tunic suit and said, "My name is Ding Ming. I was born in Bozhou in 199. What should I call you? Grandpa. "
The grandfather didn't speak or pay attention to Ding Ming, so he drifted away. Ding Ming was stunned. What was this for? After his death, why didn't there be a cow's head, a horse's face or black and white impermanence to pick him up and go to die? Is this the world after death? Or is that uncle just white impermanence? Ding Ming didn't think much, so he got up and quickly kept up with the "white impermanence".
2.
This "white impermanence" ignored Ding Ming and walked around this cemetery, stopping to read something in that cemetery and reading something in another cemetery. In places where people pass by, some of them nod their greetings to this "white impermanence", while others simply ignore it. Ding Ming followed in this way, until the "white impermanence" finished the cemetery, and then looked back at Ding Ming, as if thinking about something.
Ding Ming once again went forward to the "Bai Biao" and said, "Bai's adult, my name is Ding Ming, and I came to report, may I ask ..."
The "Bai Biao" smiled and said, "I am the wake of this tomb, so why are you here?"
Ding Ming suddenly realized that he was still in this cemetery after his death, and this uncle was not impermanent, just a wake, and he sounded like someone who died in ancient times.
"why am I here? Predecessors, I was a designer before my death, and I was born in ... "As if to find a vent, Ding Ming told the wake about his life's misfortunes.
After listening to it silently, the vigil was silent for a long time. Then he smiled and said to Ding Ming, "You are not here normally to report. If you want to be reincarnated, you will accumulate good deeds. Can you take my place and stay here for a hundred years?"
Ding Ming looked at the wake, and suddenly he was a little suspicious of what he said. Ding Ming can remember clearly what happened before his death, and he just came here, so he let himself wake for a hundred years. Because of the so-called virtue, he has never done anything illegal. Besides, he should have been at the wake for more than a hundred years. Why didn't anyone take his place?
As if seeing Ding Ming's concern, the vigil simply sat down and told Ding Ming his life story with a smile: "I was born in Guangxu for 2 years ..."
As if listening to history, Ding Ming knew that this vigil was a dead man in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. His surname was Zhao, and he worked as a Qing soldier before his death, and then he did murder and set fire. Without descendants, he died here in chaos and chaos. It just happened that these two years were full, and now no one will take over this position, so he can't leave. And Ding Minggang just arrived at this time, because there is no scenery to be buried in this cemetery, belonging to a lonely soul.
If you want to have a place to live here and be reincarnated, you must keep this place for a hundred years. Ding Ming wanted to think, anyway, no one should know that he died here, but he was sorry for his parents, so he would say yes in a hundred years.
3.
When Ding Ming was about to say yes, he suddenly felt a loud sound coming from the sky, and the sound came from the door at the foot of his death, as if someone was calling him, and the sound in his head hurt him very much. Ding Ming held his head and his body involuntarily floated up and went to the door.
At this time, the vigil held Ding Ming's feet tightly to prevent him from floating away. Ding Ming felt as if he had been torn and his body was constantly becoming empty.
"ah! ... "
With Ding Ming's scream, he was completely unconscious.
I don't know how long it took, but Ding Ming woke up groggy. It was still night, but he seemed to be in a room. There is no one around, and my "body" is more transparent than when I just died, and I feel inexplicable panic and pain. Wearing a Chinese tunic suit, there is a book and a pen on the table in front of me.
Ding Ming drifted over and looked at it. The "wake book" was particularly conspicuous. When I opened it inside, I saw the name Ding Ming under the wake, and Ding Ming felt that something was wrong!
Ding Ming quickly found the exit and floated out. It's not the scene where he just came. Ghosts are floating around everywhere, which is not the time when he came. At the moment, Ding Ming felt that it was not a good thing to be a ghost for the first time. He doesn't know where to go, and he doesn't know what will happen next. Looking at the ghosts floating around him, maybe he will be like them, and he doesn't know what exists. The hateful thing is that he doesn't know where the old man Zhao who lied to himself went.
Ding Ming suddenly wants to go back to the world to see his parents. They must be very sad when they die in such an unexplained way, and that bitch who cheated herself must get the consequences she deserves.
Ding Ming looked at the distance. This is no longer a suicide forest. I don't know which cemetery it is. Let's find a way out first. Ding Ming kept drifting, but he found that he had been drifting for so long and was still in this cemetery. The eyes of the ghosts around him have gradually changed, and every one wants to eat him, and keeps following Ding Ming.
Ding Ming drifted desperately, which was more terrible than before. Every ghost began to become fierce. Ding Ming doesn't know what causes this. I don't want to lose what I don't know after my death. By the way, there are no ghosts where I was just now, so I will be fine as long as I go back there.
I seem to know Ding Ming's thoughts, and the ghost of the weekend began to block Ding Ming's way. Looking at more and more dense ghosts, Ding Ming thought it was really over this time!
"no!"
The ghost began to grab Ding Ming's body to tear him apart. I struggled desperately, thinking, if I can live, I will no longer be afraid of any problems and don't want to die.
Seeing that Ding Ming was about to be swallowed up, it happened that the headache came again! Feel your brain explode from the inside! This feeling is too uncomfortable for Ding Ming. I feel like I'm going to explode!
"ah! ! ! ... ho! ！”
Ding Ming's body burst into an ability and he passed out ...
4.
"Xiao Ming! Xiao Ming, don't leave mom! Xiao Ming, wake up! Woohoo ... Mom loves you. "
In his lethargy, Ding Ming seemed to hear his mother calling him. He really wanted to live again. He tried to open his eyes. When he was about to open his eyes, he suddenly felt dazzling light and his ears were full of noise.
when ding Ming was about to speak, suddenly, there was a hand on his shoulder, and his finger was deeply inserted into his shoulder and he lifted himself out!
Ding Ming opened his eyes, and there was a strange place in front of him, surrounded by a pair of terrible eyes. One by one, fierce and angry ghosts pounced on him to tear himself up ...
Ding Ming couldn't remember how many times he was torn up. Every time he was torn up, he was always in great pain, and his soul was transparent and his consciousness was lost. But every time I feel that there is a gentle force to support myself ...
Ding Ming slowly loses consciousness and will be integrated with the ghosts around him. A red rope flew out, tied himself quickly, and then pulled himself out of the ghost circle. Those ghosts also reacted, desperately trying to catch Ding Ming.
Ding Ming slowly lowered his head and let the red rope take him away ...
"Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming, mom is here, mom is here! You can't die, mom can't live without you! My good boy ... "
The most familiar voice came from Ding Ming's mind. It was his mother crying and calling himself! I am full of hope in an instant. I tried to open my eyes ...
It's my mother, who is much older and haggard. Ding Ming really wants to hug his mother. Now he is weak, his brain hurts very much, and he can't tell where he is ... Ding Ming shouts in his heart: "Mom, I miss you."
5.
Ding Ming lived in the hospital for a month. When he was discharged from the hospital, his mother was so happy that she smiled like a child and led Ding Ming back to her hometown.
Later, his mother told Ding Ming that she felt heart cramps that night, and she always felt something was happening, so she called Ding Ming. It happened that no one answered Ding Ming's cell phone, and when he called the fifth one, he called the police.
Fortunately, that night, a Didi driver gave a clue that he saw a young man in the suicide forest, which seemed to be Ding Ming. So the police searched all night and finally found Ding Ming in the cemetery, and immediately sent him to the hospital for rescue.
When Ding Ming's mother was with Ding Ming in the hospital, his father said that he had a dream that an old man in the hospital told him to work for Ding Ming, otherwise he would not be saved.
Ding Ming's father was so scared that he immediately went back to his hometown in the countryside and invited a mage to do it for Ding Ming. This ritual was done for three days and nights, and the mage always said something to Ding Ming's doll with a black face. Finally, the mage found a family heirloom left by his ancestors and a red rope sprinkled with donkey's blood and pulled it all night. After the red rope was pulled out, the mage said to go and worship the ancestors, and your child was saved.
The mage disappeared after that ...
After Ding Ming was discharged from the hospital, he always had a dream when he went to bed every night, dreaming that the vigil came back to find him, but every time he tried to catch him, another Taoist came out to stop him. It's just that no one knows what Ding Ming's consciousness is like and what Ding Ming experienced in those days.
Ding Ming is a different person now, sometimes fierce and sometimes just.
