Volume 4 Cooking Contest Chapter 33 The Sealed Ancestral Hall
Inside the barbershop.
The white curtain is the only theme in the room at this moment, large and small objects are covered with white scarves, the floor is spotless, and the room is frighteningly quiet......
On the sofa, a total of 4 people are sitting. Two men and two women, and three servants stood next to them.
Their expressions were all strangely silent, as if they were thinking about some important issue, and even the servants had stiff expressions.
It wasn't until the woman appeared that the muscular expressions on everyone's faces relaxed.
She cleared her throat and said slowly:
"What I'm here to tell you today is that something may have happened to me, father!"
"You talk nonsense!!" As soon as the words fell, a man on the sofa jumped up excitedly and pointed at her to theorize.
"Dad, how could he die!" The man said angrily, "You must be a liar!" β
"Alright, third brother! Sit down! Suddenly, another man on the couch also stood up and dragged the man back. It seems that it should be his eldest brother.
"My father's death is irreparable, we should listen to her!"
The woman in white didn't say anything but the news of her father's death.
"I'm sorry, I apologize to you for my brother's ignorance just now!" The eldest brother said sincerely, "Did my father say anything before leaving?" β
"Yes! Mr. Wang has left a will. β
"What kind of will?" All eyes were immediately focused on her mouth.
"That is, the back door of the barber shop will be sealed forever, and from now on, all members of the family will not be allowed to enter there again, and if there is any violation, they will be kicked out of the house, and they will no longer be the Wang family!"
"What!" The two men were surprised and said, "Seal the back door of the barbershop." β
"Why is that?" The eldest brother asked puzzledly, "Hasn't the back door of the barbershop always been a family ancestral hall?" β
"Don't ask me, I don't know why, I'm just responsible for telling you Mr. Wang's will!"
Why is it not allowed to enter the family ancestral hall again?
"Did the father say anything else?"
"Nope!"
The room fell silent again.
Although the Wang family is not a prominent nobleman, they don't have much family property, just a very ordinary barbershop!
But this family has built its own ancestral hall, it is said that this is the Republic of China period to invite a feng shui master to find a place to build, discharge so many mirrors is also a part of feng shui, all the mirrors are all against this ancestral hall to respond, it is said that this will produce incredible power!
However, my father was seriously ill for no reason a few days ago, and it didn't work to call countless doctors, and then he died!
And now, the family ancestral hall is suddenly sealed and no longer allowed to enter the family members, which is really difficult for others to accept.
"It's time to go, it's time to give my father a funeral!"
Then, the group in the living room followed the woman in white out, leaving only three servants here.
"You say, why did Mr. Wang seal the ancestral hall when he died?"
"I don't know! I heard that Mr. Wang's death is very strange! β
"How?"
"Mr. Wang's death is claimed to be due to a stroke. But Mr. Wang's death was so sudden that there was no stroke at all, and he died after walking out of the ancestral hall that day! β
"Moreover, the people in the family did not investigate too much, but hastily cremated Mr. Wang's body!"
"Oh my God, it's so scary, could it be that this house is haunted?"
"Who knows, but Mr. Wang's death is too strange to understand, and the ancestral hall was sealed immediately after he died!"
"You mean there's something wrong with the ancestral hall?"
"This ancestral hall was built by a feng shui master at that time, and I heard that the reason for building this ancestral hall was not for wealth and prosperity at all!!"
"Ahh Not to get rich? Then why build an ancestral hall? β
"Alas...... We have a small barber shop, and we can be busy for a few dollars all year round, and it's useless to build an ancestral hall! β
"Then why build this ancestral hall?"
"The last time we went to the ancestral hall to worship, did you notice that there were a lot of mirrors placed along the way?"
"See, there are a lot of them, especially in the ancestral hall, there are more mirrors!!"
"I went back and asked that blind man Liu in our village, guess what he said!"
"How?"
Then the servant reached into his ear and whispered:
"Ghost !!"
Hearing this word, the servants were immediately frightened half to death, and some even went limp.
"What, what! What did you say? Ghost? β
"Well, Blind Liu also said that ghosts are afraid of specially placed mirrors, and the more mirrors there are, the more complicated they are, which means that the ghost is terrifying!!"
"Ahh -----," the servant exclaimed, "So Mr. Wang died at the hands of a ghost?" β
"Shhhh --Be quiet! β
"So what are we going to do?" When they heard that there was a ghost, everyone immediately became afraid. Now it's Mr. Wang, and no one knows if it will be him or not!
"Now that the ancestral hall has been sealed, and the mirror is still inside, I think as long as I don't go in, it should be fine!"
"Oh, that hell place, I won't go to kill me!" Many of the servants followed and waved their hands, they were just ordinary people, who would go to a haunted place without any trouble.
At that moment, a man walked from outside the living room.
When the servants saw it, they all ran to him, as if they had met their own father.
"It's the second young master, please do it!"
This person is Wang Zhijun, and among the three brothers, he is the second.
"Well, I just went to my father's funeral, and I'm still quite tired from running all the way here!" With that, he rubbed his sore shoulder.
"Second young master, you have worked hard, I have a good Longjing here, and there is a superb Tieguanyin before the rain, may I ask the second young master what kind of tea he likes to drink, I will make it for you!"
"Hmm....... Just give me the best dragon well. β
"Okay, you wait a minute, I'll go soak." With that, the servants went down, leaving only one by his side.
"There are a lot of mirrors here!" Wang Zhijun observed that not only near the ancestral hall, but also here are filled with many mirrors.
"Yes, Second Young Master." The servant beside him immediately took the opportunity to reply, "Since Mr. Wang passed away, many mirrors have been added to every corner of the family!" β
"All of them have increased?"
Wang Zhijun suddenly felt a little incredible, the number of mirrors actually spread from the ancestral hall.
But why is that?
Why is the number of mirrors increasing for no reason! So much?
The mirror, at the moment, became a focal point of all horrific doubts.
Why do all the mirrors face the ancestral hall?
Is it to curse the ancestral hall or to resist the curse?
Wang Zhijun looked at these mirrors, and involuntarily clenched his fists, if there was something in these mirrors that shouldn't appear, he would immediately take action and send it to hell!
"Second Young Master, the best dragon well has been soaked, come and taste it."
Wang Zhijun came back to his senses and found that the servant had placed a cup of brewed dragon well next to him, exuding a burst of fragrance.
Wang Zhijun picked up the teacup and tasted it a little, and couldn't help but praise it.
"This Longjing is really good, the taste is very pure, it deserves to be a good Longjing, your skills are really good!"
"Really? Haha, thank you Second Young Master for the compliment! Then he sighed inexplicably and said, "Since Mr. Wang's death, few people are willing to taste the tea I brewed carefully!" β
"Speaking of which, my father's death was really unexpected!"
"Second Young Master, I don't know what to say here!"
"It's okay, you can talk about it, you have been working for our Wang family for more than ten years, I don't blame you!"
"Then I'll say it." He hesitated for a moment, then said something like this
When Mr. Wang was dying, he ran outside with difficulty, pointed to a school opposite, showed a look of fear in his eyes, and said with his mouth open and closed:
"It'sβinβthat!!"
"As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Wang died, and then someone moved Mr. Wang's body back and hastily cremated it!"
When the servant mentioned a school opposite, Wang Zhijun was silent.
It's there!
Who, exactly, is where? Is it the root of all curses?
At this moment, Wang Zhijun looked down at the coffee in the cup, but it was another person's face that was reflected.
