Chapter Ninety-Eight: Weaving Filial Piety Clothes with Fragments of Yin Paper

There was nothing to say all night, and Lin Chen didn't know when he fell asleep.

On the second day, Lin Chen still got up early in the morning and waited for Zhao Chong in the room. Zhao Chong also came to the inn very early.

After informing the proprietress, the two of them went out of the inn.

After twisting and turning, the two came to a store, but it may have come too early, so the store has not yet opened.

Zhao Chong didn't knock on the door, but led Lin Chen and entered through the door in the backyard, it seems that this Zhao Chong often comes here.

In the courtyard, a middle-aged man with a little white silk in his hair was sitting in the courtyard, holding a few bamboo sticks, quickly tying them back and forth, and stacking things that had been braided next to him. If you look closely, it is not difficult to tell that these bamboo strips are all made of human shapes.

In other corners of the courtyard are stacked with some paper puppets that have been pasted, and these paper puppets contain people, houses, chickens and ducks, and so on. It is very similar to the paper puppet in the hands of the funeral procession I saw yesterday, is it made here?

"Lieber. Zhao Chong walked forward and shouted at the man in the courtyard.

However, Li Bo didn't seem to have good hearing, and after Zhao Chong screamed again, he slowly raised his head and looked over.

"It's Ah Chong, I'm looking for Ah Juan again. Seeing that it was Zhao Chong, Li Bo didn't stand up, but continued to work on the things in hand.

"No, I'm here to find Brother Hand for something. Zhao Chong replied.

Ajuan went to the street, went out early in the morning, and didn't say anything when she asked her. Young people, they all have their own ideas, and you don't listen to what we say now. Li Bo said without raising his head.

It seems that Li Bo really needs a hearing aid for his hearing, Lin Chen smiled secretly.

"Brother Chong, you're here. Fast into the house. Hey, who is this?" At this time, a man walked out of the house, who looked to be about the same age as Zhao Chong.

"Come into the house and talk. Zhao Chong didn't rush to introduce Lin Chen to that person.

The man nodded and motioned for the two to enter the house.

The furnishings in the house are very simple, just a table, a quaint incense burner on it, three incense sticks that have been lit are surrounded by bursts of smoke, what is enshrined behind the incense burner, Lin Chen didn't see it clearly.

The two who led the way did not stop, but turned a door and came to the front hall, which is where the store did business, and it was not open at this time, so there was no one in the store.

After entering the store, the three of them did not sit down, and there were no stools here at all.

"Who is this?" the man asked again.

"Oh, let me introduce you, this is Lin Chen, Brother Lin, a meditation practitioner. Zhao Chong said to the man.

Lin Chen almost laughed, Zhao Muzhou called himself Brother Lin, and Zhao Muzhou's son Zhao Chong also called himself Brother Lin, which was a bit interesting for father and son.

"Brother Lin, this is Li Qiaoshou, Brother Hand, is Juan'er's brother. Zhao Chong introduced to Lin Chen again.

"Hello, Brother Lin. Li Qiaoshou greeted Lin Chen, and asked very strangely, "Do you know Juan'er?"

Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and said, "I don't know, oh no, I haven't seen it, but I've heard Ah Chong say it." Brother Li knows about Zen practitioners?"

Li Qiaoshou also shook his head.

So both of them looked at Zhao Chong very strangely, not understanding what he meant.

Zhao Chong seemed to be very embarrassed by his pale and weak introduction, and hurriedly went straight to the point and said: "Whether we recognize each other or not, we all have a common purpose, that is, a ghost town. ”

Li Qiao's eyes widened, but he didn't expect Zhao Chong to tell people about it.

"Ah Chong went in for his younger brother and sister, why is Brother Li?" Before Li Qiaoshou could calm down, he was asked by Lin Chen.

It seems that Ah Chong didn't tell others everything, it seems that he still has some brains, Li Qiaoshou thought in his heart.

However, before Li Qiaoshou could answer, Ah Chong answered for him.

"Brother Hand likes my twin sisters, if it weren't for that, maybe the two would have gotten married. ”

Ah Chong's rush to answer made Li Qiaoshou blush.

Lin Chen thought about it for a while, but after all, he couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Ah Chong was puzzled by Lin Chen's laughter, so he asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

Lin Chen took a deep breath and said, "You two turned out to be the eldest brother and the eldest brother discussing to go together to avenge the younger sister and the younger brother-in-law." ”

Ah Chong thought for a while, and then understood what Lin Chen meant, and couldn't help but blush.

Li Qiaoshou was a little older, or more calm, and asked, "I don't know why Brother Lin went to this ghost town." ”

"I went to find someone with me, and some of my things fell on him. Lin Chen said.

After listening to Lin Chen's words, Li Qiaoshou's expression changed, and he said, "Could it be that what you are talking about is the one who Shenjiang yesterday? ”

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Then where are Ah Feng and Shuang'er Girl now?"

"That's different. But when the words came to his lips, Li Qiaoshou didn't say it.

After pondering for a moment, Li Qiaoshou nodded and said, "It's okay, if you miss this time, I'm afraid you will have to wait another month, and it's okay for multiple people." ”

After speaking, Li Qiaoshou made a silent gesture towards the two, then went around the back door and looked into the courtyard to make sure that no one came. Then he landed the two stools together, stepped on them, and groped on the beams.

After a while, Li Qiaoshou took a package from the beam and put it on the counter. After opening it, Lin Chen found that there were bags full of shredded paper inside.

"What is this?" Lin Chen asked puzzled.

"This is yin paper, which is different from ordinary paper, this is sent when ordering in a ghost town, and only paper puppets made of this paper can sink into the river. This thing is estimated to be a treasure even in a ghost town, because every time I come here to order paper dolls, I give just the right amount of paper, not a single one, and in the past year, I have saved so many leftovers from my father's paper puppets. ”

"Ah Chong, what you told me yesterday, you can't rely on this thing to enter the ghost town. Lin Chenhu said suspiciously.

"Don't underestimate this, since you entered the village yesterday, you should have seen the mourners, and they are wearing these papier-mΓ’chΓ© clothes. I used to secretly put the whole piece of paper on Juan'er, and I didn't feel any anger anymore, which scared me to death at the time. Li Qiaoshou said.

"So those people are all alive?" Lin Chen asked.

"I don't know, I asked my father, and he said that after a long time of being alive, they will become dead, so we can't delay any longer. Li Qiaoshou said.

I see, it seems that these two people feel that there is still hope to save Ah Feng and Shuang'er alive, so they are so concerned. But he was still too young, and it was too simple to think about the problem, Lin Chen thought secretly.

"So, what are you going to do after you rescue the people?" Lin Chen kindly reminded.

"Of course it's ......" The two of them thought about it, and they had been planning how to save people, and they didn't think about what to do after that.

Yes, I thought I would find a powerful helper, but I didn't expect it to be a pair of brainless people.

Lin Chen patted the shoulders of the two of them and said, "Come on, you should have passion when you are young, Ah Chong, you are for your eldest brother's daughter-in-law and brother-in-law, Brother Li, you should fight for your brother-in-law and eldest brother's sister, as for the back road, it is left to a lonely person like me to think." ”

Listening to Lin Chen's tongue twister-like persuasion, both of them were happy.

"I said, Brother Lin, can you stop patting me with your Zen stick and slapping me on the shoulder. Zhao Chong said.

Hearing that Zhao Chong's title to himself changed from Brother Lin to Brother Lin so quickly, Lin Chen smiled slightly and said, "Let's go, let's go to the inn, are you sticking filial piety clothes here." ”

Li Qiaoshou took the paste from the house and returned to Lin Chen's room in the inn with the two.

Since the three of them are about the same size, they save some trouble.

Li Qiaoshou is worthy of being Li Qiaoshou, it seems that Li Bo was really thoughtful when he named him.

I saw pieces of shredded paper, fiddling quickly in Li Qiao's hands, and before noon, the two filial piety clothes were completed.

"Brother Li really has a pair of skillful hands!" Looking at the two filial piety clothes, Lin Chen couldn't help but admire, this was almost exactly the same as the one he saw yesterday who was wearing the funeral, but he didn't see that the material of this dress was actually paper.

Li Qiaoshou looked at the remaining bit of paper very embarrassed, and said to Lin Chen and Zhao Chong: "It's over, the remaining paper is not enough to make a filial piety clothes, what can I do." ”
