The Twenty-Ninth Story Dressing Mirror (2)
Zhang Ping got up to go to the toilet like Chang, and when she got up, she saw her husband lying next to her, but when she passed by the entrance, she saw her husband standing motionless at the entrance.
Zhang Ping asked casually in a daze, "Why are you not sleeping there?" ”
Then I heard the man in the entrance say, "My clothes are in my way!" ”
Zhang Ping listened to her husband's voice that something was not right, and then she suddenly remembered that her husband should not be in the bedroom behind her? And who is it in front of you? So in a moment of panic, he screamed out.
Qiu Zehai only feels wrong now, if it is said that once is wrong, twice is wrong, then the third time is also wrong? I have also worked in the funeral home for many years, and I have never encountered such an evil thing as now!
Their home is newly renovated, and everything is newly added, but only this dressing mirror has appeared recently, and this thing is also brand new, and there shouldn't be anything unclean according to common sense!
Suddenly, Qiu Zehai remembered the day he bought the mirror, didn't he leave the mirror in the funeral home for a few days, could it be that there was something dirty at that time?
There is a legend in their hometown that if there is an evil in something, they can temporarily suppress it by tearing a new piece of red cloth and wrapping it up.
So he went to the market the next day and pulled a big red cloth, and wrapped the dressing mirror tightly that day, and sure enough, Zhang Ping didn't see anything dirty when he got up and went to the toilet that night.
In the next few days, Qiu Zehai and Zhang Ping's work began to get busy. There was no one at night, and the two of them gradually forgot about it.
On this day, the funeral home has to tidy up the freezer, and there are several long-term stored corpses in it that have to be transferred to the last few freezers, and these bodies are unclaimed or the case has not been solved, and the family does not agree to cremation or the like.
Qiu Zehai and another staff member opened one of the corpses, ready to confirm it, not to make a mistake in the order, but as soon as they opened it, Qiu Zehai recognized at a glance that this was the man he saw in his living room that day, with a gray shirt and black pants. There is absolutely no mistake. No wonder he felt familiar, it turned out to be an old nail!
Their colleagues at the funeral home, who had nothing to joke, gave different nicknames to several long-preserved bodies. Like this old nail. It's because he's been here for too long. So everyone called him a nail household, and when he called around, he became an old nail.
As soon as Qiu Zehai thought of the old nail appearing in his house, the hairs on his body immediately stood up. Although she is not afraid of ghosts, Zhang Ping can't, she has been timid since she was a child, and she is most afraid of these ghosts.
Qiu Zehai planned to hide this matter from Zhang Ping first, and only tell her after the matter was resolved, otherwise if she knew that there was really a ghost, she would definitely be scared of her illness.
There is a Master Wu in the funeral parlor where Qiu Zehai is located, and his job is to be an undertaker, which is to trim the appearance of the deceased, so that the deceased can leave this world with dignity.
Mr. Wu is over 60 years old this year, and he is now at the age of retirement, but there are too few successors for this job, and the funeral home can't find anyone who can replace Master Wu for a while, so he has been doing it all the time.
In fact, the funeral parlor itself is an evil place, and there must be some things that cannot be explained scientifically, if it is not too powerful, it will not affect the normal work of the museum, and almost no one will delve into it.
But there are also troublesome people, every time they encounter this kind of thing, everyone will think of Master Wu, he is old and experienced, and he knows how to deal with general things and solve them.
Qiu Zehai didn't believe in these things before, but now that he has put it on his own, he can't believe it, so after getting off work that day, he invited Master Wu out to drink alone, and after three rounds of drinking, Master Wu asked Qiu Zehai, "Xiaoqiu, is there something wrong with you, I don't understand?" (Master Wu is from the Northeast)
As soon as Qiu Zehai heard this, he was happy to talk to someone who understood, and he told Master Wu what had happened in his family in the past few days.
When Master Wu heard this, his face changed and he said, "Where did you say you put that big mirror?" ”
As soon as Qiu Zehai heard that Master Wu's tone was wrong, he whispered: "Put it in your dressing room, you were not there at the time, I put it there temporarily, and then I took it away." ”
"Nonsense! How can you put a mirror in that kind of place? It's still a head-to-toe mirror! Master Wu said angrily.
Qiu Zehai hurriedly asked him, "What's wrong?" Master Wu, don't scare me, am I in trouble? ”
Master Wu said to Qiu Zehai that the dressing room in this funeral parlor cannot put mirrors, because after people die, they all want to look better when they leave, but even if they are powerful mortuary, it is impossible to paint the dead as good as the living, especially some who died because of external injuries, it is good to be able to draw a human shape, if the mirror in the dressing room at this time allows the ghost of the deceased to shine, it will inevitably cause resentment and refuse to leave.
And in our freezer, there are still a few long-term residents, and their ghosts will also be interested in the mirror, if they are allowed to look at it, it is very likely that they will shoot into the mirror, and they themselves will not be able to get out for a while.
In the end, Master Wu repeatedly explained that he must not break the mirror, and he went back to think about whether there was a proper solution.
Qiu Zehai was lying on the sofa watching TV with Zhang Ping at night, but his mind was not on TV at all, but he had been hesitating to tell Zhang Ping about it, and he was afraid that she would be afraid, so let's not say it, and I was afraid that she would not know that she would accidentally break the mirror again.
Suddenly, Qiu Zehai found that the mirror that had been placed in the hallway seemed to move, and he thought he was dazzled at first, but when he took a closer look, he found that the mirror was indeed moving forward a little bit.
Then the red cloth covered by the mirror was also sliding down little by little, and by the time Qiu Zehai reacted and ran over, the red cloth had already fallen to the ground.
Then the lights in the room flashed and went out, Zhang Ping was also startled, she asked Qiu Zehai, "Husband, what's wrong?" ”
Qiu Zehai didn't answer him, just kept staring at the mirror, it was no longer the color that a normal mirror should have, at this time it was like a black hole, as if it could walk in as soon as he stretched out his hand.
Qiu Zehai didn't want to stay at home for a minute, he pulled up Zhang Ping next to him and wanted to go out, but as soon as he touched her hand, Qiu Zehai was shocked, why is his wife's hand so cold today, there is no temperature, just like the dead corpses he carried.
He turned his head slowly, but where was Zhang Ping sitting next to him, after Qiu Zehai saw the people around him, his heart sank, and he felt that his scalp was numb for a while, and he saw a woman covered in blood and half of her face sitting beside him, grinning with a big mouth, and smiling at him......
