Nian Fu said: "This old woman is too trustworthy, isn't it just a matter of half a bowl of rice, what are you afraid of!" If people die, how much money is it, and when people die, can they still go to the underworld to chase after this money? It's impossible, don't worry about it, the old woman is really ......"

Xiao Tianshu smiled: "So everyone is different!" Some people can abandon themselves without promises, and some people will pay their debts even if they die......"

Nian Fu smiled and said: "It makes sense, but the old woman is dead now, and she can't return her soul!" Doesn't this mess up the rules of the yin and yang worlds? I don't know what she is going to do, how is Lord Yama going to arrange? ”

Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "When the old woman heard this, she cried sadly, and Lord Yama suddenly pinched her fingers and said, "There is a way for you to return to the world to repay, but you have to pay a heavy price." ”

"What's the method?" The old woman asked.

"Your neighbor has an old hen that is dying for a short time, and I can let you possess her, but you have to eat her food every day, so you have to pay her an egg every day, and you can repay her as many eggs as you owe her as many grains of rice, are you willing?"

The old woman agreed without hesitation. In this way, as soon as Lord Yama waved his hand, the sand flew away, and the old woman's soul attached itself to the neighbor's old hen, clucking and clucking.

The neighbor's old hen was dying of life. When the neighbor heard the rooster crow, she was curious to see that her mother had not only come to life, but had also laid a big egg, which made her puzzled.

Since then, the old hen that was about to die suddenly became vibrant, and every day, rain or shine, a big egg would be laid.

Seven years have passed in a flash, and the neighbors are very curious, and they say that their old hens have lived for more than ten years, and an egg a day has never stopped

Not long after this, the neighbor suddenly had a strange dream, in which the old hen suddenly said: "My good neighbor, I am the old woman next door to you, remember when I borrowed you half a bowl of rice?" One egg and one grain of rice, seven years, I've paid it back, and now I'm leaving......"

At dawn the next day, the neighbor hurried to see the old hen, only to see that the old hen was cold and had been dead for a long time, so the doubts in his heart were finally solved, and he sighed: "Old woman, for half a bowl of rice, a small promise, why do you have to pay for it with seven years......

Nian Fu admired: "As the saying goes, it is not difficult to borrow and repay, and it is difficult to borrow again if you borrow and not repay, if you borrow other people's things and money and do not repay it in this life, you will have to be a cow and a horse to repay it in the next life, so why not ......repay it in this life."

Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice are born to make holes." ”

Nian Fu smiled and said, "There is a story again? ”

Xiao Tianshu smiled: "Let's start with a story." This story takes place in the northeast of Tunfujiabao. Many years ago, there was an old carpenter named Fu Baotian in Fujiabaobao. Just listening to this name, you know that he is a bold master. It's bold. The fact is also that in this life, in addition to beating coffins, he also hunted ghosts and exorcised evil spirits. ”

It is rumored that in the early years, a Taoist walked from Fujiabao and suddenly contracted a vicious disease and fell ill. At that time, it was Fu Baotian who took him in, and he took care of the medicine, and confiscated a penny. When he recovered, the Taoist was very grateful and gave him a peachwood sword. Speaking of God, since then, Fu Baotian has really collected a lot of demons and evil obstacles, and people give them the nickname "Ghost Seeing Sorrow".

Nian Fu smiled and said: "I'll go, the ghost is worried, this name is ...... cow"

Let's say that on this day, the big family of Fujiabao came to the door. As soon as he entered the hospital, people sighed again and again: "Brother Baotian, your uncle's illness, alas, is enough." He urged me to invite you to prepare a millennium house for him as soon as possible. ”

Millennium House, i.e. coffin. The "your uncle" that Fu Shoucai said was his father's old rich man. The people of Fujiabao, as long as they are old and feel that their time is short, most of them will put a coffin in advance, make a longevity coat and shoes, and prepare them.

After hearing this, Fu Baotian turned around and shouted into the house: "Deflated calf, do you want to learn the craft with me?" ”

"Don't go, don't learn!"

The deflated calf who replied happily was Fu Baotian's son Fu Ersan. Two or three, one after another, implying many sons and many blessings. Unexpectedly, after the second and third landed, the belly of the rich daughter-in-law never bulged again. Fat doesn't count. Seeing that he is nearly sixty years old, Fu Baotian knows that there is no play, and he is also discouraged - he will be a loser in two or three days, and he will know how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and he will be idle and nonsense. Fortunately, after getting married and having children, the heart has been restricted. It's just that he resolutely refuses to learn the craft of making coffins from his father

Why? Bad luck.

No further ado. Fu Baotian entered the door with Fu Shoucai, and when he saw that it was Nanmu, he couldn't help but nodded: Good material. Nanmu is of good material, not deformed, buried in the ground and resistant to decay, and is the first choice for coffins. Next, it's about carpenter's kung fu. It must be played tightly and seamlessly, without leakage, and with momentum, the bottom of the coffin is wide and thick, the coffin lid is majestic, the coffin body is smooth and round, and the coffin head is round and convex. And looking at the radius of a hundred miles, I am afraid that no one can surpass the rich bag if they can have this ability.

However, Fu Baotian only walked around the courtyard for half a circle, and his face sank.

"The evil spirit is too heavy, something is wrong!"

Seeing this, Fu Shoucai was a little panicked: "Brother Baotian, what's wrong?" ”

Fu Baotian didn't say anything anymore and started work. When the ink line was lifted, the two ends were tightened, and as soon as it flicked down, boom, the newly replaced ink line was actually broken into two!

You must know that there is a rule in the coffin shop, and a new ink line of 9 meters must be replaced before the start of construction. This ink thread, unusual cotton thread, is extremely flexible. If it breaks, it is not a good sign. What's even more terrifying is that Fu Baotian also screamed "ahhh

"What's wrong?" Fu Shoucai was also shocked.

"Offended. In the event of such a thing, if I don't care, I won't be rich! ”

Fu Baotian said that, he made his own opinion, drove the rich woman and the children away, and the neighbors, and then entered the house and stood in front of the old rich man's bed.

"Uncle, don't blame your nephew for not being able to stand it, this coffin is not easy to fight. If the line is broken today, it is possible to crack the coffin and fall to the bottom tomorrow. ”

"Why?"

"Something, doesn't want you to go. If you don't drive them away, they will enter the Millennial House and disturb your peace. Fu Baotian sighed, "There is no one else in this family, who have you treated badly, what have you done to be ashamed of here, let's talk about it." ”

Here, Fu Baotian shoots his heart.

The old rich man, who was silent for a long time, suddenly burst into tears, and babbled that when he was young, he had carried his daughter-in-law behind his back and had a good relationship with the widow of Song; Once, when he was walking in the mountains, he happened to meet a woman who was bullied by a wicked man, crying and begging him for help, but he pretended not to see him and fled in a hurry. On the same day, he heard that the woman had hanged herself......
