Chapter 2: Bizarre Wounds
"Old man, old man, I can't sleep, let's go downstairs and make two pots." At eleven o'clock at night, I browsed the messy website, my blood swelled, I couldn't sleep anyway, and I lay down and had exciting pictures and screams in my mind. Just get up and find the old man to go to the night stall for a few drinks.
Pushing open the door of the old man's room, he found that he had already left, and suddenly felt empty inside......
After a night of rain, the air is particularly fresh when I wake up in the morning, with a sweet and fragrant earthy smell. I was picked up by a young man, solemn and cold, calm and restrained, with short hair, with his characteristic Chinese face, which looked clean and neat, although his eyes were not big, but very distinctive, exuding a wolf-like ferocious murderous aura.
"Veterans?" I asked.
He opened the car door.
"Active-duty military?" As soon as I stepped on the door, I asked.
He threw my backpack in the trunk.
"Where are we going?"
He turned into the cab and started the car.
"Dude, are you cool or dumb?"
"Shut up." The voice was not loud but very majestic, and I stuck out my tongue on the altar and quickly shut up.
The car was parked steadily at the funeral home in the west of the city, and groups of people in black walked back and forth near the funeral home.
"Damn, what kind of posture is this. Who is lying inside? I thought to myself.
"Are you Mo Han?" A white-haired old man, holding a cane, wears a black Tang costume with a lifelike dragon embroidered with gold thread.
"I ..... Be. "The old man is very kind, and he exudes a powerful aura on his body, which makes people shudder.
"Make me satisfied, or you'll be very dissatisfied."
"Yes, I am satisfied." I'm still quite confident in my craft.
Inside the room, the temperature was always 16 degrees Celsius, and on the mortuary's table was a torn corpse, with some fragments of bones, limbs, meat, skin, and internal organs, like a pair of minced pork.
"it." I cursed inwardly.
I wanted to leave, but when I thought of the group of people in black outside, I gave up the idea of leaving, and looked at the female corpse on the mortuary's platform and had a familiar feeling, this ...... This...... Isn't this the girl from yesterday's car accident?
"Hey, since you have this fate, I'll give you back your appearance." After speaking, he took out a delicate compass from his bag and began to look for the direction of the needle according to the eight methods of the odd needle. The so-called eight methods of odd needles are:
A needle: swinging. It is concluded that there are strange rocks and deep pools here, and woe to them.
The second is said to be a needle: the needle protrudes. It is concluded that there is yin qi at this time, but this is good yin, either from his deceased ancestors, or as the protector of the blessed gods.
The third is the sinking needle: the needle sinks. It is determined that there is yin qi at this time, and there will be unjust deaths or unnatural deaths, and they will stay for a long time.
Fourth, the hand turns: the pointer does not stop. The evil yin intervenes, the anger of resentment lingers, and there will be harm in dwelling.
Five: the needle is half floating and half sinking. It is determined that there is a yin house underground, and the dwelling will cause trouble.
Sixth, the reverse needle: the needle flies obliquely. Whoever is judged to be disobedient in this place will be both rich and destitute.
Seven side needles: the needle has been stationary and does not return to the midline. It is determined that there must be an altar and an ancient temple here, and it is not possible to live at home.
Eight said positive needle: no difference and no deviation, no difference here, can be used at your discretion.
"Ding" northwest, in the right position, with a slight sound of the compass, the direction of the needle was found, I took out a small tripod from the bag I carried, three pillars of long incense, and my expression became extremely dignified.
The four fingers of the left and right hands are interlocked, and the thumb presses the long incense, and the incense head is level with the eyes.
Three points of incense, with the smell of curling green smoke and sandalwood, wafted in the mortuary of the funeral home.
Incense, burned, no different.
I bowed three times in the east, south, west, and north directions.
"Don't blame, I'm here to change your appearance, so that your ancestors and descendants can find you." He solemnly bowed to the corpse and bowed three times.
Take out the glutinous rice and make a circle around the mortuary's table. If the glutinous rice is black, it is different.
In the northwest square, a soul suppression talisman was pressed. For the other three parties, I pressed the transcendence charm.
Everything was ready, I looked at the incense, there were still sparks, green smoke curling, and the color of glutinous rice was still the same, so I began to prepare for the burial.
The torn corpse, I had to start the "puzzle" first, this process took more than 3 hours, and after the whole puzzle, I found that the corpse was still a quarter missing.
"Don't worry, come clean, and go beautifully." I said as I began to disinfect the corpse parts.
Sewing, pasting, peeling, bone-grafting, filling, continuous work for more than 9 hours, finally completed a "person". The last step left is to restore your appearance.
Fix the face, fill in the depressions, fix the face with wire, and glue the mouth to seal it.
Putting on makeup, comparing the photos of the deceased before her death, she finally seemed to be asleep lying on the funeral table, I took a long breath, looked at my watch, and had been working continuously for more than 17 hours.
It's just that in the process of repairing, I found a strange "tooth mark" on the neck of the deceased, a small tooth mark, and a purple and black color appeared around it, and at that moment a thought flew out of my mind, could it be that the car accident was related to this tooth mark?
It was past 2 a.m. when I walked out of the mortuary, and I was full of exhaustion, and the hunger pangs made me exhausted.
"I'm satisfied." The old man with a cane said.
A huge electronic screen outside the funeral home shows everything in the mortuary room.
I was a little tired, so I said, "Then check out, and send me back by the way." ”
"Don't worry, you go wash up first, and then we'll talk."
A man in black beside the old man walked up to me and made a gesture of please, and in a luxury RV, he had already prepared toiletries and clothes for me.
Wearing the clothes they had prepared, smooth and soft, and the skin was indescribably comfortable, they involuntarily touched the clothes and whispered, "It's good to be rich." ”
The parking lot thousands of kilometers outside the funeral parlor has been illuminated by the headlights as if it were day, the stars are shining brightly at night, and the mirror-like moon hangs in the sky, pouring the light of flowing water into the vast land.
The old man sat quietly on a Taishi chair, the table was full of sumptuous food, and I had not eaten since breakfast, and my mouth was suddenly watering and my eyes were shining.
Seeing the old man nodding and motioning for me to come over, I always felt a little uncomfortable sitting across from him, the old man didn't speak, he pointed to the rich food with his finger, I looked at the old man, he nodded.
I was already hungry, gobbling it up, a maid stood beside me and poured a glass of red wine, usually I drink about 10 yuan of white wine, red wine is like drinking water for me, and there is an astringent taste, so I asked, "Is there any white?" ”
The maid looked at the old man, and I peeked at the old man and nodded, and I knew it, and thought: Such a sumptuous food, if you don't make some liquor, it will be called a violent thing.
"Your craft." The old man waved his hand to the man in black on the side, only to see the man in black take out a whole ten stacks of red "Grandpa Mao" from the box.
"Well, no...... No....... That's not right. "I didn't have time to chew the food in my mouth, so I tried to swallow it.
"Too little?"
"Oh, no...... No...... Rules, I ...... I can't break it....... Propriety. After swallowing the food, I felt a lot more comfortable, wiped my greasy hands with a napkin, took out my mobile phone and opened the calculator and said: "The maximum cost of working hours is six hundred yuan per hour, a total of 17 hours is equal to one thousand and two hundred, the appearance fee is up to one thousand, and the total amount of incense and candles and other equipment is seven hundred and sixty-eight, and the total is: eleven thousand nine hundred and sixty-eight." ”
I took a stack of money from the table, counted nineteen hundred-hundreds, and said, "All right." ”
Suddenly, remembering the clothes on my body, I looked around, counted five hundred and put it on the table with some distress, and said, "This is the money for the clothes." ”
The old man smiled slightly, motioned to the man in black next to him to put away the money, and said lightly: "Are you willing to marry her?" ”
"Who?" I was snickering in my heart, Nima, who has been a single for many years, and is still a child, and it is inevitable that I will be excited to suddenly have a daughter-in-law.
The old man pointed to the funeral parlor and said, "She, my granddaughter." ”
I jumped up in fright and hurriedly said, "You....... You...... No kidding. "When I think of the torn corpse, my face turns green.
"No kidding."
"Big ...... Uncle, although it is difficult for me to marry a daughter-in-law in this profession, I ...... But...... I can't ...... I can't go down to accompany her. ”
"Don't want to?" The old man stared at me, sending a chill down my neck.
"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't help it." I puffed up my chest, even if I died, I had to show my manhood, and besides, I was afraid of a single hair.
"Well, well, I'm not strong, since I don't want to, forget it." The old man waved his hand magnificently.
I let out a long breath, patted my chest, and took a sip of wine to suppress it, and a fire ran down my throat and into my stomach.
"However, she should have been hit by something before the car accident, she has strange tooth marks on her neck, but it is purple and black, and the smell is unpleasant, it should be poisonous." I thought about it for a long time and felt that I should tell the family of the deceased the truth.
What surprised me was that the old man was not surprised at all, and did not react at all, like an old man walking leisurely under the moon.
"Hey...... It's much worse than your grandfather. The old man sighed.
"You...... You...... Do you know my grandfather? "This time I was really frightened, my mouth was open, and I was at a loss.
"Acquaintance, Mo Jue, the famous undertaker."
This is the first time I have heard my grandfather's name, and the first time I know that my grandfather's name is Mo Jue.
He ...... He....... Where is his old man? "I have no relatives and no reason since I was a child, and I suddenly heard that I have a grandfather and relatives, tears, and excitement.
"I don't know, maybe he's long gone, I haven't seen him for more than 50 years, your father met him when he was born, and he hasn't been heard from since."
"And you're my grandfather's friend?"
"It's not. Your grandfather was a friend of my father. ”
"Can you tell me about my grandfather?" There was pleading in my tone.
I'm not an orphan, I'm not an orphan, I look up at the starry sky and cry out silently......
