Chapter 1168: Inferi

He Xiyan came to her mother’s tomb. Her eyelids dropped, and tears were slightly perceivable in her eyes.

She felt quite heavy in her heart, and even her breathing became heavy.

She believed that the place where her mother was buried must not be good, because the two tombs were very close.

Soon, the tomb was dug out as well, and a large coffin appeared in front of everyone. To be exact, it was the outer coffin which was to prevent the coffin from rotting. He Xiyan then entrusted her teacher to help buy this coffin. She told her teacher to buy a better one, so the teacher bought this one.

Since the coffin was too strong, the men digging the tomb discussed and finally decided to use tools to pry it open. He Xiyan also agreed, because the bones, after being picked up, would be packed in a jar and the coffin would be burned.

Several men took over tools and it took them a long time to pry open the coffin.

However, just at the moment, the coffin lid was lifted.

Several people let out a scream. A man carrying the coffin lid even let go of his hand directly, causing the lid to drop with a big bang.

He Xiyan covered her mouth upon seeing her mother in the coffin. Her eyes were wide open, as if the eyeb.a.l.l.s were about to fall out.

“Mom…” She cried out. Suddenly as if mad, she rushed over to the tomb.

“G.o.d, how could it be like this… how could it be like this…?” She screamed.

She looked at her mother lying in the coffin with great disbelief, who seemed to be sleeping.

Twenty years had pa.s.sed and yet, her mother’s body was in perfect condition with her hair still black and s.h.i.+ny.

“Ms. He, calm down.” The funeral staff and fengshui master aside hurriedly came forward to help her up.

It was not the first time they had seen this. It was a corpse.

It was extremely unlucky to find the corpse when changing the burial location. According to fengshui, the inferi would appear only in the extremely evil place. Dead people must have some wishes waiting to be achieved, so even though they died, they were still unwilling to close their eyes and their souls would not leave their bodies. They would stay around the grave and become the ghosts unwilling to reincarnate.

“Mom…” He Xiyan cried out with tears.

She hadn’t expected to see her mother again in this way.

He Xiyan was in a state of great shock and grief, but she didn’t know that her daughter Xixi, warned by the fengshui master not to come to the graveyard, had snuck over and even stood behind her.

Xixi shrank her neck, eyes fixed on the corpse in the grave which had not decayed yet, her grandma. Her grandma seemed to be asleep, but her eyes were open. The eyeb.a.l.l.s seemed to have gone. What’s more, grandma’s hair was very long, and what was more scary was that her grandma’s nails were as long as chopsticks.

She bared her teeth, her hands suddenly trembling involuntarily.

Corpse?

A terrible word flashed in Xixi’s mind.

Yes, that was the corpse she saw on TV.

Scared, Xixi suddenly started to run over to the road outside.

He Xiyan was helped by the staff of funeral company to a tea tree nearby to have a rest.

The staff comforted her and said, “Ms. He, don’t be too sad. We have also met such a case before. Perhaps the coffin was sealed too tightly with no open hole. Therefore, the inside of it is was completely isolated from the outside elements, causing it to become an inferi. What’s more, it is too humid here, which is also an important reason.”
