The funeral shops here are lined up, and the location is relatively close to the hospital. The names are varied, but the decoration is a mess, often near the door under the window, there are a lot of dark coins, as well as a mess of paper figures, wreaths and so on.

What is more uniform is that the brands are all black on a white background. But think about it from another angle, when a patient stands in front of the hospital window, he can see the rows of funeral parlors, isn't it frustrating.

This may have a certain impact on the patient's heart.

In addition, the yin qi of the funeral shop is heavy, and it is still in the Vermilion Bird position, which belongs to fire, and the yin qi contributes to the burning of the yin fire. In other words, in the long run, the patients in the hospital will often be upset and irritable because of the influence of the yin fire, and the patient's spirit will not be much better.

This is a little problem that I can see with reference to the yellow booklet given to me by my master, Ma Hongji. However, people's funeral shops are lined up, and there are more than a dozen of them, even if I help, I'm afraid it doesn't mean much.

Pumpkin and I walked towards a nearby funeral shop, where the owner was greeting customers as they entered. Pumpkin and I walked around the funeral shop a little, and Pumpkin went to a paper horse and touched the horse's head.

When he tried to poke the horse in the eye with his finger, he was scolded by the bearded boss.

"Hey! What are you doing? Don't mess with anything in our store. ”

The bearded boss walked over quickly, blowing his beard and glaring.

Pumpkin smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I just looked at it casually, and I accidentally touched it." ”

The bearded boss was also polite: "Hmph! ... What do you see, can the contents of the dead man's shop be touched casually? ... If you two don't buy anything, just leave clean. ”

Pumpkin was scolded by the bearded boss so much that he couldn't get over it, so he had to argue. I hurriedly grabbed him and whispered to him: "Don't mess around, the things in the funeral parlor are indeed not touched randomly." Paper people and paper horses are even worse, otherwise they will find you at night, I don't care. ”

Pumpkin was shocked by my words, and hurriedly stood behind me, swallowing spit.

Seeing that the two of us hadn't left yet, the bearded boss's face was a little heavy: "Why don't you leave?" ”

I straightened my body and said directly to the bearded boss, "Boss, we're here to buy something." Otherwise, I'm afraid ordinary people won't want to come to your store. ”

When I said this, the bearded old man asked me, "What do you buy?" ”

I just said, "Give us ten bundles of old-fashioned yellow paper over there; The dark coins next to it cost twenty piles; Ten white incense sticks; Get me one for the paper cart too; Serve the incense and bring us a box. ”

When the bearded boss heard me say this, he realized that there was a big business, so he hurriedly changed his attitude and replied repeatedly: "Okay, you wait." ”

After piling up all the things we wanted at the door of the funeral shop, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Actually, we can help him too, but given his attitude towards the pumpkin just now, neither the pumpkin nor I helped.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, the bearded boss asked me again, "Two, what else do you want?" ”

I looked at the gold ingots in the transparent bag over there and said, "Then there are five more bags of gold ingots." ”

The transparent bag containing gold ingots is not large, much smaller than ordinary flour bags.

"Anything else?" The boss asked me again.

I walked around the store, and in the corner I found a paper figure with red cheeks and colorful flowers. After thinking about it, I raised my hand and pointed at the paper figure and said, "Then there will be another paper figure, and I will have the one with the braid." ”

Unexpectedly, the bearded boss actually shook his head and asked me, "Are you sure?" ”

Without hesitation, I replied, "Sure." ”

However, looking at the bearded boss's face, there is something wrong. So I asked him, "What, is there anything wrong with that paper man?" ”

The bearded boss hurriedly waved his hand, with an ugly smile on his face: "Then how can it be, it's just a paper man, what can be the problem!" ”

As he spoke, the bearded boss walked over and hugged the paper man. Not to mention, the workmanship of the paper figure is really realistic, and the eyes on the face seem to be painted with a little bit of brilliance.

However, it is true that there are a lot of things to buy, even if you put them in the van. After all, there were four girls in the car, and if you stuffed these things into them, you wouldn't have to freak them out.

So I asked the bearded boss, "Boss, you see that I buy so many funeral supplies, do you have to send them by car?" We're not far from where we're going and won't waste too much of your gas money. ”

The bearded boss didn't hesitate, and nodded directly in agreement: "This is easy to say, little brother, you put first... Pay for it. ”

After all, people are in business, and they still put money first.

So, I took out the card and swiped it on the POS machine provided by the boss.

Grandma's, it cost more than a thousand yuan.

The money passed. The bearded boss called out a young man from the store. A small truck drove up from not far away, and stuffed all these things into the truck with us.

"Brother, where should I send you these toys?"

That young man looks quite honest.

I replied, "We're coming by car, too, so you can just wait and follow our car." ”

"That's fine."

Xiao Young readily agreed.

But instead of getting into the car right away, he took a few steps closer to me. Seeing that the bearded boss didn't notice this, Xiao Young lowered his voice and said to me, "I don't know what you're buying so many funeral supplies, but you'd better not buy that paper man." ”

His words and the bearded boss's previous reaction clearly proved that there was something wrong with the pigtailed paper man.

I squinted and asked, "What's wrong, is there anything wrong with the paper man?" ”

The little young bird whispered to me, "There really is." Brother, that paper figure is not from our store. ”

I was very confused by this. The pumpkin was even more puzzled.

"Not from your store? ... Where's that? Could it be that it came out of nowhere? Pumpkin felt that there was something wrong with this young man's brain, so he said angrily.

The young man was not angry, pouted and said, "Why don't you believe it, that paper figure really came out of nowhere." Just last morning, when my boss and I came to open the door, the paper figure appeared in the store. No one knows what's going on. ”

"And don't believe it, when we opened the door this morning, the paper figure moved on its own. At first, it was at the door, but somehow I ran inside. ”

Ya, the young man's words made me panic.

Could it be that there is a ghost hidden in that paper figure.

But even if there are ghosts, they don't dare to come out to make trouble in broad daylight. And I'm a Lushan Taoist priest, so I can't be afraid of a ghost.

So I smiled and said to the young man, "Okay, I understand what you said." But it's okay, I bought that paper man, you can send it back to us later. ”

Seeing that I still didn't believe it, Xiao Young was a little anxious: "Two brothers, what I said is true, I'm afraid that you will be in trouble." ”

But before Xiao Young finished speaking, the bearded boss in the store shouted: "Geng Sanchun, what are you doing, why don't you go and deliver things to the guests." Don't grind! ”

Xiao Young seemed to be afraid of the bearded boss, and hurriedly replied: "Okay, boss, I'll send it to them." ”

The helpless young man shook his head at us and said, "Since you don't believe me, then I can't help it." Take note of yourselves. ”

If you meet ordinary people, I am afraid that the young people who "bewitch the crowd" may be beaten up.

But his words made me think. When I glanced at the paper figure in the car compartment, I noticed that its eyes seemed to be spinning as if they were living people.

However, when I fixed my gaze, I found that the paper man's black eyes were back to normal. Am I mistaken?

You must know that I now have mana in my body, and I still have a certain sense of ghosts.

I also touched the paper figure just now, but I didn't feel any evil energy on it.

Of course, it could also be that the little young man really had a problem with his brain and was talking nonsense.

After thinking about it, I beckoned to Pumpkin and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the car." ”

When I got back to the car, the girls were still chattering, as if they hadn't seen me and the pumpkin. But this time, I sat in the co-pilot seat and let Qu Xinnuo sit in the back seat.

Pumpkin glanced back at a few girls, approached me and asked, "Brother Qin, shouldn't there really be a problem with that paper figure?" ”

I smiled and said unhurriedly to him, "I don't know." ”

These words made the pumpkin flutter for a moment, and then he looked dissatisfied. He must have thought I knew what was going on and thought I wasn't telling him.

"Didi! ————”

The young man honked the horn.

I said to the pumpkin, "Let's go, let's go straight to the 'columbarium'." ”

The pumpkin naturally knew about the columbarium and said in surprise: "Brother Qin, what are you doing in the columbarium?" It's all cemeteries. ”

I smiled and replied, "Of course, I should burn paper, otherwise, burning paper in broad daylight will cause some unnecessary trouble." The columbarium is the best place to go. But we just need to go into the columbarium forest, find a vacant land, and burn paper. ”

Pumpkin nodded, indicating that he understood, and started the car.

The car was soon on the road, and the pickup truck was right behind us.

That is, ten minutes, our car came to the side of the columbarium.

The dense tombstones in the distance looked a little flustered and lifeless. There are also birds such as crows, which are strange in the cemetery.

Originally, our car wanted to drive directly from the columbarium cemetery, but the old man who guarded the cemetery said that he would not let the car in.

We can't hold those things, let's go in. The point is that there are too many things.

So I let the pumpkin walk around the columbarium, and I found a place where no one was taking care of it. And it's close to a dirt road in the countryside, so it's easy to drive over.

Soon, the van turned onto a dirt road and stopped.

There was a low-lying area next to the dirt road, where paper was burned, which was not only leeward, but also blocked the view from the other side of the road, so as not to be seen by passing drivers.

Soon after our car stopped, the pickup truck drove up.

After that, I left several girls in the car. Pumpkin and I got out of the car and unloaded things with the little young man. To my surprise, this time the young man didn't say a word, and it wasn't until he left that he looked at me and whispered, "Brother, be careful of that paper man." ”

With that, he hurried back to the van. Then, the truck sped away and disappeared into the highway in the blink of an eye.
