【015】Mystery shopper
In broad daylight, whenever ordinary people enter the sacrificial shop, there will be an inexplicable sense of sadness and fear. in the sacrificial shop; There are various types of mobile phones with papier-mâché, cars, motorcycles, and everything that is available in the world, and there are sacrificial shops.
There are not many customers who come during the day, except for Halloween, Ching Ming Festival, and other death days, and the store is a little more popular. The rest of the time is deserted, people pass by here and don't stop, who wants to come in?
But in the evening, especially after twelve o'clock, there were so many customers here that Zhang Heng was a little overwhelmed. As a last resort, Zhong Kui occasionally came to help.
Someone is weird? This is a sacrificial shop, so what kind of customers will come at 12 o'clock? If you think about it, you'll understand! At that special time, it was either a 'human' or a ghost!
Stygian coins can only be circulated in sacrificial shops, etc., let's be clear: not all sacrificial shops can circulate underworld coins. At least there is only one in City A, and that is the Zhongkui Offering Shop, which can be exchanged for items in the Sacrifice Shop.
The underworld is similar to the human world, there are rich and poor. Those who wander in the dark corners and peek out in front of the sacrificial shop are the poor ghosts. For example, the three lepers are a loser in the world, and they will lose their family property. His relatives in the world hated him, and after his death, no one remembered him, and no one burned him coins and items on Halloween or something.
The three lepers are drunkards in the world, and after death, they are bad gamblers, and in the end they can't be cheeky and come to the world to beg Zhong Kui for money. Thanks to Zhong Kui's guidance and warning, he was able to correct his mistakes and eventually became a messenger in the prefecture - now he should be called a civil servant in the prefecture.
A large stack of traded coins was placed in front of Zhang Heng, and he counted them one by one, and tied them carefully with kraft paper tape......
Because of Halloween, a large number of ghosts have money in their hands, so they will come to the sacrificial shop after 12 o'clock to buy their favorite items. Once the transaction is made, Zhang Heng collects the money, Zhong Kui counts the items sold, and then transports them to a secluded place to be burned to them.
At this moment, Zhong Kui lined up a variety of souls, all of which were lonely souls and wild ghosts wandering outside the store.
"Remember, the Buddha-figure has given me today, and when you need it one day, you have to work hard to compensate me back." Zhong Kui raised his hands behind his back, looked majestic, stared at the slightly hooked heads, and nodded like the ghosts pecking at the rice and said.
Suddenly, he looked up at the doorway, on the road in the silence......
I don't know what the street lights on this section of the road have been willing to break, and it is not a way to change the two ends in three days, plus this section, in the dead of night, it is also impossible for passers-by, and finally those maintenance workers are too lazy to care. So this is the most famous black triangle area in City A, and it is also one of the focus topics of those who have nothing to do, after dinner, legend has it that this road is terrifying at night, but there has never been an abnormal accident.
Of course, no one knows who is responsible for this journey. With Zhong Kui here, those ghosts dare to make trouble?
Chen Jun and Xu Bin didn't dare to come out and quietly hid in the car. With all his courage and trembling, he watched Zhong Kui walk back and forth on the empty ground with his hands behind his back, and looked at what important things he should be talking about.
Chen Jun was very strange, he had clearly seen a shadowy figure just now. When he looked at it intently, he only saw Zhang Heng and Zhong Kui, and the others were invisible.
Zhang Heng also felt that Zhong Kui was looking outside.
"Uncle Zhong, what are you looking at?"
Zhong Kui flicked his nose with his fingers, flicked his fingertips and said, "They're here, you hurry up." After speaking, he waved his hand at the ghosts who had been benefited: "It's my friends outside, don't harass them, disperse!" ”
Zhang Heng used a burlap bag to pack the dark coin, picked it up and sent it to the hut.
Chen Jun and Xu Bin saw Zhong Kui's eyes burning, and walked step by step towards the place where the two of them parked their cars.
"Did he see us?" Xu Bin was nervous, and his heart was about to jump out......
Chen Jun took a deep breath, wanting to calm down his excitement and fear. "Isn't that nonsense?" If Zhong Kui was human, he could see them hiding under the banyan tree.
Sure enough, Zhong Kui walked straight towards them, and put his hand on the black car very accurately. 'Crackle' still doesn't come out? Zhong Kui shouted in the same tone as if he was talking to an old acquaintance.
Chen Jun and Xu Bin glanced at each other, shook their heads with a wry smile, and each pushed the car door and straddled their legs.
Out of the car, the night breeze blew, and they guessed in their hearts. No matter how bold you are, Zhong Kui is standing alive in front of you, but he is inexplicably afraid in his heart. After Xu Bin fought a cold war, he disguised himself and asked, "Good guy, are you still ......?"
Zhong Kui said: "Yes, I'm still alive......" In the dark, he was dressed in a black uniform and blended into the night, giving people an indescribable sense of mystery. His eyes are like dark elves' sharp night vision eyes......
Chen Jun was slightly embarrassed, after all, peeping is immoral, no matter who it is aimed at......
"Hi Hi, hello Uncle Zhong."
"Good!" Zhong Kui patted Xu Bin generously, "Go to the store and sit?" ”
"Go?" Xu Bin looked at Chen Jun in an inquiring tone.
"Go, of course."
Zhang Heng packed up and saw Chen Jun and Xu Bin coming in. Shy, he nodded with a smile and said hello.
The three of them went into the inner room and sat down, and Zhang Heng brought supper. Three bowls of white fungus soup, white fungus soup is mixed with jujubes, and the faint heat overflows with a sweet and greasy taste.
Zhong Kui looked at the hesitation of the two of them, and Xuan Wai said, "Eat!" Eating warmth can also drive away the cold and cold air. ”
Chen Jun didn't say much, quickly picked up the soup spoon and stirred it, and began to eat it in a big gulp.
Xu Bin seemed to have some scruples, looking around, and had no appetite at all......
"There's those things in the store, and your bones aren't fit to stay for long. I just called Zhang Heng to boil this white fungus soup for you, and you will avoid damage after eating it. ”
Since there are such benefits, Xu Bin is not a fool. He took action, and swallowed a big bowl of white fungus soup in three bites and two bites faster than Chen Jun.
To get back to the point, "Did you come to me about a bizarre case that happened recently?" Zhong Kui's sharp gaze swept over the faces of the two.
"Yes, Wenwen's mother, Aunt Luo, she ......"
Zhong Kui waved his hand and said with a solemn face: "I know she's gone." ”
Xu Bin and Chen Jun glanced at each other again, their eyes full of surprise.
"I know everything, with Rong Rong here, Wenwen is not in danger for the time being."
"Uncle Zhong, I want to know where Cui Wen's girlfriend Abby is? The cause of Cui Wen's death and so on. ”
