Li Peng called his father to the middle-aged man, and it seems that he is Li Peng's father and the person in charge of this funeral home.
The Taoist priest dressed up to see the two of us come in, smiled and made a joke, and said "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable" in his mouth. When I saw that he was polite, I immediately made a meridian seal, made a gesture with him, and said "Good way".
Lao Dao smiled at me, looking quite modest.
Li Peng's father looked at me, frowned and asked Li Peng, "Who is this?" Li Peng's father's expression looked irritated, and I can understand it, after all, he has encountered so many bad things.
Li Peng looked at the old man next to him, and then said to his father with some hesitation: "He is my roommate and a disciple, and I asked him to help." β
Unexpectedly, after Li Peng said this, his father looked me up and down a few times, and asked in disbelief: "So young?" β
His dad was completely skeptical, and he was probably taking me for a liar. I have a wry smile in my heart, these days, there are a few ground horses that are white-bearded old men, and sure enough, the older generation still has a heavy concept of "no hair on the mouth and no good work".
I smiled and didn't speak, this trick was taught to me by Bao'er's father, smiling is the best way to improve your character, people are already suspicious of you, no matter how you explain it, it's a cover-up.
Li Peng saw his father's expression, and his face was a little unbearable, so he took his father's arm and walked inside. There was also a room in the office, with a single bed and a clothes rack, which seemed to be used for temporary rest.
As soon as they entered the house, they began to mutter, and they could only hear a little conversation, but they could not hear what was being said.
In fact, I hope that Li Peng's father will not look down on me, because I really don't know what to do. After going through a few things, I found that my state of mind was also a lot calmer.
If this had been placed in the past, I would have had to let Chang Xiangjiu perform a telekinesis to bluff Li Peng and his father, but my mind has changed now. Those who believe in you are destined, and if they can help, they will help, and if they don't believe in you, you will deter him with their supernatural powers, which is no different from the outside world.
I vaguely heard Li Peng and his father asking and answering questions inside, so I thought about it and simply found a chair to sit down and wait.
Unexpectedly, the old man rushed to talk to me, and he asked me with a smile: "Little brother, how many years have you been out of the horse?" β
I don't understand why he asked, but out of politeness, I still told the truth: "Ao, there has been an immortal family since I was a child, and if I really talk about the horse, it will be a matter of one or two years." β
Lao Dao smiled slightly after hearing this, and asked again: "Then did your immortal family grind you before you went out?" How many things have you seen over the years? β
I said in my heart what is this for, we don't know it, why are we so familiar?
"My old fairy doesn't like grinding horses." I didn't look at him, and while fiddling with my phone, I replied casually.
I thought that my attitude explained my position, that is, Lao Tzu is not familiar with you. Under normal circumstances, others will stop talking nonsense, but I didn't expect this old way to be as if they didn't notice my rejection.
He smiled and whispered to me, "You have just been out for a year or two, and in my opinion, this matter is not something you can settle with." In Taoist theory, the corpse is the soul rushing, and it is not easy to take your life without a little Taoism. In addition, let me say more, there are good avenues that are not cultivated, but some animal spirits are enshrined, isn't this a sacrifice of the basics? β
I'll go, I can still understand what he said earlier, he is afraid that I will choke him work. I can't bear it anymore, what's wrong with the animals? The stars in the sky are also cultivated by animals, and many predecessors of Taoism are not human beings.
What is this old Taoist cultivator? What I am cultivating is my Gonggao? I still don't know much about the way of cultivation, and this persuaded me.
I was a little dissatisfied, and I was about to refute him, but I didn't expect Li Peng and his father to come out of the back room.
Li Peng's father changed his expression when he saw me again at this time, and it is estimated that Li Peng told him what had happened recently. His father smiled and said to me, "I didn't expect you to have such a way at a young age, and my uncle looked away." β
People have to carry it around us, I hurriedly waved my hand and said it's nothing, it's all the ability of the fairy family.
After Li Peng's father finished talking to me, he saluted the old Taoist again, and said politely: "Martial Arts Chief, this is a friend invited by my son, if you don't mind, let's go and have a look?" β
Li Peng's father spoke politely to Lao Dao like a grandson, and although he was more polite to me than just now, he probably didn't treat me too much. I shook my head and smiled bitterly, and said in my heart that this old man looked like me like that.
"Well said." After hearing this, Lao Dao picked up the shelf, stroked his beard and looked fairy-like, and said: "Poor Dao is to enter the red dust to save people, you will follow me for a while, don't come forward." β
The old Taoist speaks in literary crepe, and he almost speaks in classical Chinese. Li Peng and his father immediately nodded, walked to the door and stretched out his hand, leading the two of us out.
I motioned to the old way to go first, in fact, although I was a little angry just now, but after thinking about it, many people think that is what I think about the horse fairy, and this is not something I can change.
Besides, I didn't have anything to do with me, if the old way could do it, I would have saved the toss. Although I am very eager for the face of Li Peng's mouth, I now understand a truth, how capable I am and how much I can do great things.
If I were to give me 500,000 yuan now for my next trip to the ancient tomb, I guess I wouldn't agree. People are like this, isn't there such an old saying, called "newborn calves are not afraid of tigers", as you understand more, the more you are afraid of wolves and tigersΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
On the way, I secretly recited the eye-opening mantra and opened the yin and yang eyes. I looked left and right, and found that the funeral parlor was not full of lonely ghosts as I imagined, but on the contrary, it was cleaner than the outside.
Li Peng's father took us through the staff passage, which was full of pipelines, in the corridor between the morgue and the front viewing room, which should not be open in normal times, and was probably used to repair equipment and pipelines.
After walking for about four or five minutes, Li Peng and his father stopped in front of a small iron gate. This small iron door is as big as the utility room on the first floor of some communities, and through the iron door, we can already hear the sound of clicking inside.
Li Peng's father was already sweating on his head at this time, and he shuddered and took out the key, and said to us: "This is the freezer before the reconstruction, and because there are too few cabinets, it is not used much now." Put him with those corpses, and even make a fuss with other corpses, this can be left here alone. β
Through Li Peng's father's introduction, I probably understood that the body that had the problem was stored inside. If I'm not mistaken, the strange movement was sent by him.
Li Peng's father had already taken out the key at this time, but he was trembling and couldn't poke the keyhole no matter what. I saw that the tip of his nose was covered with fine sweat, and his face was pale, and I was afraid that he would die suddenly with fright.
"Brother, don't worry, there is a poor road, and you can't pick up big clams." Lao Dao smiled and comforted Li Peng's father, from his words, I heard Lao Dao's origin, it should be from Shandong. In the coastal areas of Shandong, "can't pick up big clams" means that there is no problem.
Li Peng's father smiled reluctantly after hearing this, but his hands were still trembling, don't look at him as a funeral home, it is estimated that it is the first time he has seen such an evil thing. It seems that his spirit has been devastated for the past two days.
I observed the doorway along the way, and that's when I began to notice that something was wrong. There are no lonely ghosts outside to understand, the souls of the newly deceased cannot leave the body for the first seven days, and the funeral home is the place where life ends, so the ghosts do not like to come.
But they have all come here, not only are there no lonely souls and wild ghosts, but even the yin qi is not very strong, which is not right. The corpses inside are all tossed like that, whether it is a soul rush, or a ghost, the yin qi must not drill out along the crack of the door, why is there no yin qi?
Li Peng's father was really trembling, and in the end it was Li Peng who took the key, he took a deep breath, twisted it hard, and with a click, the lock cylinder opened.
I was holding my breath to see what was going on inside.
This room is only 20 square meters, and there is a whiteboard hanging on one wall, which is supposed to be used to record the date of entering the cabinet. There are rows of stainless steel cabinets on the left and right walls, which are used to store corpses.
The light in the room was dim, and in the middle of the room lay a morgue on the ground, on which lay the corpse of a man about fifty years old, covered with a mortuary cloth from the waist down, and bare-chested.
The exposed part has been covered with corpse spots, it looks a little disgusting, I don't know how to describe it, you can go to the picture of gangrene below Baidu, it's basically like that. The whole body is black, and there is a little thickness.
It seems that the corpse was dead for some time before it was frozen, and before that, the corpse was already a little moldy. I took a closer look, and suddenly I felt that my breathing was not smooth, and I instantly felt that my scalp was fried, goosebumps on my back, and cold sweat also wet the clothes on my back.
The appearance of the corpse is not something that I can't accept, whether it's a ghost or a corpse, I've not seen it once or twice.
What really caught me was the high level of the corpse. By opening the yin and yang eyes, I could see the soul of the corpse.
Due to the swelling of the corpse, it can only be vaguely seen that the soul is the same as the corpse. But the soul of the corpse does not float on the corpse, but part of it grows inside the corpse.
The upper part of the soul is in the shape of a person, and the lower part is like plasticine, rooted in the bulging belly of the corpse. At this time, the soul was full of pain, his face was distorted, and his body was covered with hair, but his little finger was thick and his little finger was long, and he was still squirming.
I'm a dense phobia myself, and this scene irritates me all over my body.
I was about to take two steps back when something unrecognizable came out of the back of the corpse's soul's head, like a hybrid of a centipede and a slug.
The thing looked about the thickness of a snake, and I didn't know how long it was because it was only exposed, but I noticed that it was staring at me all the time, with eyes on its head that looked like tentacles, staring at me faintly glowing.
