Chapter 7: The First Business

When the antique wooden box was opened, there was a long bamboo tube inside, and on the outside of the bamboo tube floated a swollen woman's face, yellow and wrinkled, and as soon as I saw it, it grinned at me, so frightened that I almost threw the whole box out, but in the blink of an eye, the face disappeared inexplicably.

I don't know what it is, it took a long time to dare to touch it, and when I picked it up, I found that a line of words was engraved on the bamboo tube: Yin pattern paint, ghost!

On the other side, there is also a line of words: Date of death April 8, 2019, the cause of death was drowning, betrayed by her boyfriend and pushed into the water with her best friend, drowned, resentment, and became a water ghost.

This...... Is this a ghost? There's a water ghost hidden in this bamboo tube!

I was so frightened that I hurriedly put it back into the distance, I didn't dare to look at it again, the yang pattern paint is made of dead people's blood, ashes, corpse oil, and the yin pattern paint is used by ghosts, and the ghost in this bamboo tube should be grandpa's paint.

I know the method of yin lines, but I have never used it, and I dare not touch the ghost of this bamboo tube again, because I have an inexplicable fear of ghosts in my heart.

In addition to the bamboo tube containing the ghost, there is also a black box inside, and when the box is opened, there is a key, and a piece of paper with the address written on it.

There are two addresses, one is the address of the tattoo parlor in Zhonghai City, and the other is the address of Zhao Donglai's house.

Grandpa said that Zhao Donglai lost his daughter to him as a granddaughter-in-law, or to twins, it's a bit beautiful to think about it, but I don't know if it's reliable.

Twins, that's every man's dream!

After a while, I began to pack up my things and leave my hometown for Zhonghai City, which is a big city and has to take a six-hour bus ride to get there.

I was bored in the car, and I began to recall my grandfather's words, and the most puzzling sentence for me was that if my parents came to me, I would kill them and burn their bodies.

What does that mean? Why do I want to kill my father and mother? That's outrageous, isn't it? My parents have been missing for so many years, and I'll be thankful if I can be reunited, I still kill them, don't I have a problem with my brain?

I can't figure this out, but as soon as my head is sleepy, people fall asleep.

When I woke up, I was almost in Zhonghai City, and after getting off the bus, I found the tattoo parlor directly by the address.

This tattoo parlor is located in a dark alley, with two floors, but it is very old, the walls are torn and yellow, and there is moss, indicating that no one has lived in it for many years. There is also a big sign hanging on the door of the tattoo parlor, Ghost Print! However, the sign is also very shabby, and it will sway when the wind blows, and I don't know when it will fall down.

The lock on the door is also very rusty, and the key is twisted for a long time before it opens, and this kind of house is estimated to be the same if it is not locked, like a haunted house, who would like to come.

After I went in, I cleaned for a long time before I dared to sleep, otherwise it was all dust, and the next day I brushed the outside wall, and then simply renovated it, the first floor was used as a tattoo room, and the second floor was lived, and then I could open the door to do business.

The main reason is that the money is almost used, let alone making 100 million, and if there is no money in the account, I have to starve to death, I haven't found a cent of the money my grandfather earned, I don't know where he hid it, not even a bank card, a passbook.

I waited at the door for a long time, not even flies, let alone looking for my tattoo, this alley is so remote that no one passes by during the day, and there are many girls who make big swords at night.

Just when I was about to despair, suddenly WeChat rang, it was a girl in my village, named Xu Meng, she asked me where I had moved, and wanted to find me to get a tattoo but couldn't find anyone.

I was happy in my heart, this is not business, and I hurriedly sent Xu Meng an address.

Xu Meng said that it was a coincidence, she was also in Zhonghai City, fortunately she asked the people in the village first.

Sure enough, after a while, a Honda stopped at the mouth of the alley, and then a fashionably dressed beauty walked in from the mouth of the alley.

"Hey, mouse, how did you move to such a place like this?" Xu Meng stepped on high heels while complaining about the poor environment here.

She said that although the countryside is a little backward, it is better than this ghost place.

I invited her in, poured tea and poured water and waited kindly, but I couldn't let this first business go bad.

After a while, Xu Meng asked where my grandfather went, I lied to my grandfather to travel, and she asked me if I would have ghost tattoos after taking a few sips of tea.

I was overjoyed, and slapped my thigh and said sure, this is a family handicraft.

Ordinary tattoos are thousands of dollars, and large amounts are only thousands, ghost tattoos are different, starting from tens of thousands, this is the first business, as soon as I come, I will come to a fat sheep, can I not be happy?

Xu Meng asked suspiciously: "Mouse, can you ward off evil spirits?" ”

I said yes, the role of ghost patterns can be many, warding off evil spirits, transporting, keeping peace, making money, Wangjia, Wangpeach, you can get a tattoo if you have nothing to do.

Xu Meng still looked at me suspiciously, saying Is it really so magical? Don't sell melons and boast about yourself.

I patted my chest firmly and said, if it doesn't work, a full refund, Tong Su is not bullied, and then I asked her what happened to the ghost tattoo.

Most of the word-of-mouth of ghost lines is word of mouth, and if it's okay, who will do ghost lines.

Xu Meng didn't answer directly, but kept looking outside, and then asked me if there was any "thing" with her when she came.

She doesn't mean people, she says things, which makes me a little puzzled.

I shook my head and said that something was following you, and you were the only one when I came.

Xu Meng felt a little relieved when she heard this, she said that she always felt that something "dirty" was following her recently, and sometimes when she looked in the mirror, she would find a man standing behind her, but when she turned around, she disappeared.

Another time she went to the toilet without turning on the light, and actually found someone squatting on the toilet, but as soon as the light was turned on, it disappeared, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to go into the toilet that night.

Xu Meng's thing sounds really weird, could it be that she has hit an evil spirit? I asked her if anything special had happened lately.

Xu Meng said yes, not long ago, a man died in her bed, it seems that from that time on, she always felt that someone was following her.

The specific thing is like this, Xu Meng works in the entertainment city, so I won't talk about the content of the work, anyway, it is a quick money and a comfortable life.

That night, a man ordered her, maybe too excited, within a few minutes the man rolled the whites of his eyes, and then burped, this matter has nothing to do with Xu Meng, and it was released quickly when he arrived at the bureau, but after that night, Xu Meng always felt that someone was following her, and strange things appeared frequently.

Xu Meng is one year older than me, her background is more pitiful, her father is a gambler, when she was ten years old, her father was chopped off because of gambling debts, and then people died not long after, her mother took her and two younger sisters in the countryside and couldn't live, so she remarried a fifty-year-old man.

The old man is not a good thing, as soon as he drinks, he beats their mother and daughter, Xu Meng was poisoned by the old man when he was eighteen years old, a young girl in the flower season was destroyed by him like this, her mother did not let her call the police, saying that the old man is the pillar of the family, and he has to rely on him to support the family.

Xu Meng was so sad and angry that she fled from the village and went to Zhonghai City in a fit of rage, and two years later she drove home in a bright Honda.

A little girl, with no money, no background, no education, she has mixed so well in just two years, everyone should think about what Xu Meng does, and the people in the village are pointing at Xu Meng.

But Xu Meng doesn't care, this world laughs at poverty and doesn't laugh at prostitutes, she also took her sister and mother to live in the city, and the old man once drank and had a stroke and no one cared about it, and no one knew about it when he died at home, and when they found that the corpse was rotten.

I'm a more open-minded person, I don't discriminate against any profession, as long as I get a tattoo and give money, and Xu Meng is kinder than anyone else, she sometimes sends money back to help the orphans in the village who can't eat.

After listening to Xu Meng's matter, I already have an idea in my heart, I don't know if it is evil, but as long as I tattoo her with a tattoo to ward off evil spirits, the medicine will be cured.

I introduced her to a ghost pattern, called the Oni Beggar Yaksha, the Yaksha is a kind of hellish ghost, one of the Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon, the general Yaksha likes to eat people, and the Ghost Beggar Yaksha likes to eat ghosts, the price is 20,000.

Although they are the same Celestial Dragons, the Yaksha is more difficult to tattoo than the Rakshasa and is twice as expensive.

Xu Meng frowned when she heard this, how could she tattoo a demon on her body with this line of food she ate? Doesn't that scare the guests away? And the price is a bit expensive, although she makes a lot of money, it is not easy to come.

Xu Meng began to hesitate, and she didn't know if she was an evil person, maybe she was just suspicious.

It's over, the cooked duck isn't going to fly, is it?
