Chapter 674: A Bold Decision
The corpse chaser turned around to leave, but seemed to remember something and said: "By the way, I want to remind you, don't touch the happy god behind the door, so as not to make any mistake with the talisman falling off, I will not be responsible at that time, and the old man, there will be heavy rain on the top of the black cloud cover tonight, and the gathering of damp air is very easy to cause corpse changes, I and the little apprentice have not had a good rest for many days, and we need to sleep well at night to hurry, you are good to guard the happy god, do not let the wild cats and wild dogs touch the happy god, you should understand the other precautions, I won't say more." ”
The old gold nodded again and again, and the corpse chaser relieved himself and took the apprentice upstairs.
I came back to my senses and quickly stopped him, and the corpse catcher asked, "Is there anything wrong with the guest?"
I said, "Master, can you take a step to speak?"
The corpse chaser didn't think much about following me to the corner, and I went straight to the point and told us that we were going to go into the mountain at night to rescue people and find Lao Jin Zi as a guide, hoping that he would make it convenient for Lao Jin to go into the mountain with us.
The corpse chaser frowned and said, "With all due respect, the storm is coming, aren't you going into the mountains now to seek death?"
I said helplessly: "Old Jin said that the storm may cause floods and mudslides, so it will take a week to enter the mountain, I can wait, but my friend's life is hanging by a thread, and he is counting on us to save him, so I must rush to the mountain before the storm comes, and then find a place to shelter from the storm, and wait to escape the storm before entering the hinterland." ”
The corpse catcher looked me up and down, noncommittal.
I hurriedly said: "What I said is true, master, you can help, human life is at stake, let Lao Jinzi go into the mountain with us, and you will work hard at night to guard the corpse yourself...... Rejoice, God, I can give you money ....... ”
The corpse chaser raised his hand and interrupted: "What we are talking about in this line of work is letters, not money, if you don't mention money, maybe I will consider helping you, but if you mention money, you don't need to talk about it!"
I grabbed the corpse chaser's hand and said, "I'm sorry master, then I won't mention the money, please help us." ”
The corpse chaser glanced at the little apprentice on the stairs, thought about it again, and said, "Our master and apprentice have been walking in this mountain forest for many days, we are tired, and we urgently need to rest, let our master and apprentice eat a full meal and sleep for an hour, and then say, old man, cook!"
After that, he took the little apprentice upstairs, I sighed helplessly, and the old gold came up and said: "Don't worry, according to my contact with these corpse chasers over the years, although each corpse chaser has a strange temper, but they are usually very righteous, he doesn't directly refuse you to explain that there is still a chance, the storm is not so soon, I will go to cook for them first, and I will talk about it when I deliver the meal." ”
Now it can only be like this, I remembered the question that the corpse chaser asked me just now, and said curiously: "Old Jinzi, what does it mean that the corpse chaser just now asked me which way to go, which door to enter, and what method to use?"
Lao Jinzi said with a smile: "It's not an ordinary person to come to this kind of place and live in a corpse inn, so he thinks that you are also a friend of the Tao, which way is to ask you to belong to the five techniques of mountain, medicine, divination, life, and physiognomy, and the line of chasing corpses belongs to the mountain technique. ”
So that's what happened.
I also went back to my room after the old gold went to cook, and found that everyone had woken up when they heard the movement downstairs.
Wu Tian asked: "Lao Luo, what happened, who is downstairs?"
I told me what happened just now, Wu Tian frowned and said, "Damn, why is it so coincidental, if you don't come sooner or later, you come at this time." ”
Zhu Meijuan also said: "Yes, what kind of bad luck are we taking, Du Yong and Ma Xiang are still waiting for us." ”
Bazhu walked around the room anxiously and said, "Brother Luo Hui, why do we have to let that old man be the guide, I can really do it, you see that I have been fine since I entered the mountain, if it wasn't for the deer boss who blocked my way and knocked me unconscious, I guess I would have entered Laowo Mountain." ”
I persuaded: "Bazhu, the mountains that follow up from Laowo Mountain are different, the terrain is more complicated, if there is no guide who is familiar with Laowo Mountain, I'm afraid we won't stay in the mountains for long, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”
Zhu Meijuan took Bazhu's hand and comforted: "Bazhu, don't worry, I know you are very worried about Daddy and Auntie, but this matter is not in a hurry." ”
Bazhu had no choice but to nod.
We talked in the room for a while, when suddenly there was a thunderclap outside, and we were startled, and even the floor was vibrated by the thunder, and in a short time the white light of lightning shone through the window, and the room was completely white.
Wu Tian hurriedly closed the window and said, "It's troublesome now, it's starting to thunder, and the rainstorm is going to fall soon, what should I do." ”
I'm also a little anxious, if I can't get into the mountain before the rainstorm, then this will be difficult.
I paced back and forth in the house, the thunder and lightning were getting more and more frequent, and the storm was expected to come soon, no, I couldn't sit still, something had to be done.
I opened the door to go out, Wu Tian asked me what I was going to do, I said in a deep voice: "There is a corpse standing behind the door downstairs, the corpse chaser calls it Xishen, I just heard the corpse chaser say that tonight is heavy and damp, and it is very easy to change corpses, I want to do something to make the corpse chaser lack skills, so that he can't rest, and we can take the old gold into the mountain." ”
Wu Tian was taken aback, swallowed his saliva with difficulty and said: "It's not the boss, this kind of joke can't be made, in case the consequences of the corpse mutation are beyond your imagination, we may not be able to leave, this risk can't be taken!"
Zhu Meijuan was also worried: "Brother Luo, are you thinking about it, it's too dangerous to do this." ”
Wu Tian said: "What age is this, and the corpse transporter still needs to be chased? This shows that this person's death is not simple, and the car is unwilling to carry it, so it is necessary to invite a corpse chaser, I suspect that this person died by mistake, and the resentment is very heavy, and you will only make trouble for ourselves by doing this." ”
I looked at Wu Tian and Zhu Meijuan firmly, and finally fell on Ba Zhu, and said, "Even if you are looking for trouble, you have to give it a try, you can't let Du Yong and Ma Xiang continue to wait, now they don't know what else they are going through, we can't continue to wait!"
Wu Tian wanted to say something but didn't say it, and finally turned into a sigh, Zhu Meijuan could only sigh helplessly, the two of them were acquiescing, and now I was even more convinced.
I took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "You guys stay in the room first, no matter what happens outside, don't you come out and hear it clearly without my instructions?"
