The master mentioned by Brother Jiu is a middle-aged man with a big back, this person is a little hunchbacked, and he can even be said to be a little obscene from the point of view of his demeanor.

In short, it is very different from the master I remembered.

Brother Jiu and the master are called Brother Zheng, Brother Zheng sat in the back seat of the car and listened to Brother Jiu talk about what happened at night, and after hearing it, Brother Zheng frowned, and after listening to it, Brother Zheng scolded Brother Jiu angrily

"I said Xiao Jiuzi, you will find something for me, tell me how much money the family will give?"

Referring to Qian Zheng Sange's face of philistine, Brother Jiu sighed and stretched out a finger to Zheng Sange, Zheng Sange touched his chin and said to himself

"It's a bit too little to give 10,000 yuan, okay, no matter how small the mosquito legs are, it's meat, and I'll transfer 5,800 after I'm done."

After finishing speaking, Zheng Sange got out of the car, Jiu Ge winked at me, Jiu Ge meant not to say it, I will have a share after the matter is completed, and Jiu Ge also followed Zheng Sange out of the car.

I followed behind the two, and the ninth brother took the third brother Zheng to introduce the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law of the bereaved family.

Since everyone had little rest last night, the old lady's children all looked tired, and the eldest brother-in-law immediately put on a respectful look when he heard that Zheng Sange was a master invited by the ninth brother, shook hands with Zheng Sange, and respectfully handed over a cigarette.

Zheng Sange took the cigarette and looked at what brand the cigarette holder was, and after seeing that it was China, he smiled and pinned the cigarette behind his ear, asked a few questions to the bereaved family, and stared at the mourning hall thoughtfully.

Although the statue that was broken last night has been renovated, I still think that the old lady in the photo is interesting and strange, staring at everyone with a smile on her face.

Third Brother Zheng took the cigarette pinned to his ear and lit it and said to his eldest brother-in-law

"When I overdo it in a while, you let the monkey and the snake leave here, and all the female dependents who come to menstrual affairs must also be avoided."

After hearing this, the eldest brother-in-law nodded in agreement, and Third Brother Zheng took a puff of cigarette and continued

"You bring a piece of the old lady's clothes that she wore before her death, and then a pot of dumplings, okay, you can go."

After Zheng Sange finished speaking, the eldest brother-in-law trotted all the way away, and Zheng Sange said to me and Brother Jiu with a serious face

"Look at this posture is definitely enough, summon a soul and ask what's going on, and then find a way to send it away."

After Zheng Sange finished saying the word conjuring, my hair exploded all over my body, I looked at Zheng Sange in disbelief, Zheng Sange seemed to like the way I looked at him, and said to me with a grin

"What's so great about the conjuring, I think I played with female ghosts when my Zheng Laosan was in good health."

After a while, the eldest brother-in-law trotted over again, holding a set of clothes for the old lady before her death.

Zheng Sange took this set of clothes and frowned slightly, I looked at the set of clothes in Zheng Sange's hand, this set of clothes was really broken to the extreme, there were more than a dozen patches large and small, but fortunately, the clothes were still clean, and the eldest brother-in-law was also a little embarrassed to say to Zheng Sange that the old lady was used to being thrifty during her lifetime.

Brother Jiu had already told Zheng Sange what his children had done in the car, and after listening to the eldest brother-in-law, Zheng Sange sneered a few times, spat on the ground, and the eldest brother-in-law on the side was also embarrassed.

Just this move towards Zheng Sange, it can be seen that Zheng Sange is a lover.

Zheng Sange spread his clothes in the mourning hall, took out a copper bell from the bag he carried, I looked at the bell in his hand curiously, Zheng Sange knew that I was looking at this bell, and said to me proudly

"Boy, this is called the Soul Bell, it's a good thing, you'll see it in a while."

After saying that, he shook me swayingly, and there was a crisp ringing sound in an instant.

I don't feel any different from the sound of ordinary bells, I can see that this master named Zheng Sange is a tease.

Zheng Sange waved at the eldest brother-in-law after tinkering in the mourning hall for a long time, and the eldest brother-in-law trotted over to ask Zheng Sange what was the matter, Zheng Sange looked at the mourning hall and frowned and said to the eldest brother-in-law

"Xiao Jiuzi didn't make it clear to me before I came, I originally thought it was just a simple superordinate ritual, but now it seems that superdularity will not have any effect, I plan to summon spirits, and after a while, you will let your wife sit in the mourning hall with the old lady's clothes before her death, I will talk to the old lady, if you want to solve this matter, you can only use this method"

Obviously, the amount of information in Zheng Sange's words is too big for the eldest brother-in-law, he blinked his eyes for a long time and didn't react to what was going on, Zheng Sange took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket and lit one by himself, looking at the mourning hall, and after a long time, the eldest brother-in-law also took out a cigarette and lit one and asked Zheng Sange

"Master, you are the lifesaver of our family, you can do what you say"

Third Brother Zheng nodded and said to his eldest brother-in-law

"Okay, you let the useless people disperse, the children stay, and listen to me call the children to come to the mourning hall later"

After Zheng Sange finished speaking, the eldest brother-in-law nodded a few times and left, and after the eldest brother-in-law left, the ninth brother next to me walked over and asked Zheng Sange

"Third brother, do you mean to let the old lady go to the body of the eldest daughter?"

Third Brother Zheng smoked a cigarette and nodded, and Brother Nine frowned slightly and said

"It's a little bad for the third brother to do this, will it be ......?"

Without waiting for Brother Jiu to finish speaking, Third Brother Zheng interrupted him

"I said Xiao Jiuzi, I know what you mean, do you want to let the old lady get on you?"

After Zheng Sange finished speaking, he looked at Brother Jiu with a wicked smile, and after hearing Zheng Sange's words, his face changed, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said forget it, Zheng Sange waved at me and said to me

"When I summon the soul in a while, you light a stick of incense and hold it in your hand, don't let the incense go out, I tell you that if the incense is extinguished, something big will happen, and you will be clever for a while."

This third brother Zheng is familiar with the whole thing, I was thin-skinned and embarrassed to refuse, so he agreed hard.

Seeing that I agreed, Brother Zheng nodded at me and ignored me anymore, tinkering with the things in his bag, Brother Jiu dragged me aside, handed me a cigarette and asked me with a smile

"You can see who this Third Brother Zheng is."

I lit a cigarette and smiled, and Brother Jiu said to me after lighting a cigarette

"Don't take it seriously, this person is like this, he hasn't treated himself as an outsider, but he is not bad, quite righteous, and he had a good relationship with your father back then"

Brother Nine When I said this, I suddenly remembered my father, and I asked Brother Jiu

"What is Third Brother Zheng good at?"

Brother Jiu took a puff of his cigarette and thought about it for a while

"I really don't know exactly what he's proficient in, but if the money is in place, he seems to be able to do anything, this old boy is quite a money fan."

I looked at Zheng Sange, who was busy in the mourning hall, and asked Brother Jiu

"Brother Jiu, do you see if I can find Third Brother Zheng alone after this matter is over, I want him to help me find my father, even if it is in one direction."

After listening to me say this, Brother Jiu took a few puffs of cigarette and snuffed out the cigarette butt on the ground, patted me on the shoulder, and said to me

"No problem, and I guarantee that Zheng Lao will not take any money, and his relationship with your father back then was much better than that between me and your father"

In my impression, I didn't know that my father knew such a master as Brother Zheng, and I never heard him mention this person.

In my opinion, my dad is nothing special, just an honest businessman, just now Brother Jiu told me that my dad and Zheng Sange have a great friendship, I firmly believe that my dad is still alive, and even at that moment I felt that my dad was very likely to be like the plot in most novels, with a huge secret, and had to disappear.

Just when I was thinking nonsense, Brother Jiu dragged me, and I came back to my senses to find that Third Brother Zheng was ready, and the children had all come to the mourning hall.

Brother Jiu motioned for me to go over to find Third Brother Zheng, Third Brother Zheng saw me walking over and nodded to me, picked up a stick of incense from the offering table and handed it to me, saying that I would listen to his instructions, and then he didn't speak, Third Brother Zheng looked at the people in the mourning hall and said to everyone

"The old lady's daughter sat in the mourning hall holding the old lady's clothes before her death, and the rest of the people all knelt in front of the eldest daughter"

After Zheng Sange finished speaking, everyone except the eldest daughter walked out of the mourning hall, and the eldest daughter also sat in the mourning hall with the old lady's patched clothes, Zheng Sange looked around at everyone and nodded and said

"I'll ask the soul to come up in a while, don't panic, admit your mistakes to the old lady, whatever the old lady says, you're all right."

Everyone nodded, and Third Brother Zheng sighed and snuffed out the cigarette in his hand.

At this moment, Zheng Sange's face was serious, and even the obscene aura from earlier disappeared, and even exuded a righteous and awe-inspiring aura from him.

Zheng Sange picked up the conjuring bell that was put aside, and shook it with words, and after shaking for about a minute, the bell stopped suddenly, and Zheng Sange shouted:

"Kamika"

I hurriedly took out the incense in my hand that I lit with a lighter.

It's no wonder that the candles and everlasting lights in the incense hall began to beat uneasily as soon as I finished it, and the children knelt in place and didn't dare to make a sound, and the eldest sister was a little trembling and sat in the mourning hall holding the old lady's clothes, and it could be seen that the eldest sister was now extremely scared.

I stood beside Zheng Sange with incense and felt a trace of coolness spreading towards the mourning hall, Zheng Sange picked up the conjuring bell again, and shook it with words in his mouth, as soon as the bell rang, the candles and the flames of the ever-bright lamp in the mourning hall were extinguished in an instant, and even I felt that even the sky was overcast.

The eldest sister sitting in the mourning hall suddenly shuddered, and the soul bell in Zheng Sange's hand also stopped.

The eldest sister in the mourning hall suddenly laughed a few times, and after listening to it, my hairs exploded all over my body, and in my cognition, this laughter could not happen to human beings.

I was so frightened by these laughter that the incense in my hand almost fell to the ground, Zheng Sange looked at me and didn't speak, I just stabilized my mind, and the eldest sister who was sitting in the mourning hall looked at the people kneeling in front of me and spoke

"It's a lot of people here today."

Although the words came out of the mouth of the eldest sister, it was completely different from the voice that the eldest sister usually said, and I didn't know how to describe the voice, in short, it sounded very uncomfortable.

Everyone kneeling on the ground also understood what was going on in front of them, and hurriedly kowtowed like garlic.

The eldest sister who was taken on by the old lady looked around at everyone and let out a grim laugh.

At this time, I noticed that the incense in my hand was burning at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the cigarette that came out of it was rising straight up.

I used my other hand to block the incense and tried to make him burn more slowly, but it didn't work at all, I guess the incense would burn in less than 5 minutes.

The third brother Zheng next to me was already sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed at this time, as if he was asleep, and then the eldest sister roared and said something again

"Beasts"

"You unfilial things, I brought you up, you officials become rich, you officials make fortunes, do I want anything with you?"

The eldest sister's face was very hideous when she said this, I don't know if it was an illusion or what, I could vaguely see another face on the eldest sister's face, that face was very similar to the old lady's portrait on the table, the eldest sister asked in a weird way

"Where's the fifth?"

A slightly younger woman kneeling in the crowd moved forward and cried

"Mom, I'm here"

"You still know that I am a waste picker."

After the eldest sister finished speaking, the fifth sister cried and kowtowed and said that she was wrong, she was not as good as a pig and a dog, and everyone followed the example of the fifth child and kowtowed and scolded herself, and the eldest sister sighed and said with a faint sigh when she saw everyone like this

"Alas, mothers want their children to be healthy, as for how much money you have, how big an official you are is that is your business, it has nothing to do with me, when I was alive, I hoped that you could come and see me, you are all married now, and you are all out of luck, I think I'm dirty as an old woman, I think I'm in trouble, the third child, I didn't feel dirty when you pulled in your pants when you were a child, and the fourth child too"

At this moment, the incense has almost burned, and I am anxious enough, Zheng Sange sat motionless as if he was sitting down.

The people kneeling on the ground didn't know whether they were frightened or moved by the old lady's words, and they couldn't cry, and the third child knelt and moved to the mourning hall to hold the eldest sister's feet and cried heartbreakingly, and everyone knelt and moved over to surround the eldest sister in the middle and cried, the eldest sister also cried, but what was left was not transparent tears but two lines of blood tears, the eldest sister stroked everyone's head and sighed and said

"I don't embarrass you anymore, I should also go, you can do it yourself"

After the eldest sister finished speaking, she closed her eyes, and the people kneeling on the ground were still crying heartbreakingly around the eldest sister.

At this time, Zheng Sange suddenly opened his eyes, strange to say, the moment Zheng Sange opened his eyes, the incense in my hand suddenly went out.

Zheng Sange looked at the incense in my hand and smiled appreciatively at me, he picked up the soul bell that was put aside, stood up, and shook it with words in his mouth, shaking for about a minute, the bell suddenly stopped, and Zheng Sange shouted

"Dust to dust, dust to earth, the deceased has passed away, send the soul!"

After Zheng Sange finished speaking, the staff of the Ninth Brother Funeral Company reacted, and made a musical gesture to the band on the side, and then a burst of suona sounded sound.

Zheng Sange wiped the sweat on his head and walked to the side to smoke, I went over and wanted to talk to him about my father, seeing Zheng Sange walking aside, the eldest brother-in-law also chased after him, and asked Zheng Sange if it was over, Zheng Sange nodded and said while smoking a cigarette

"It's over, the old lady has left, after a while, your lover wakes up and lets her go straight to rest, I guess I'll have a serious illness after such a toss, and the rest is fine, and after a while, you will pour the dumplings I let you cook into the brazier, and it's completely over."

The eldest brother-in-law rubbed his hands and thanked him again and again after listening to Zheng Sange, Zheng Sange didn't look at him and waved his hand at him, which means that what should you do, don't bother me.

The eldest brother-in-law didn't take it seriously and left, and after the eldest brother-in-law left, Zheng Sange looked at me and asked me if I was looking for him.

I nodded and told him about my dad.

Third Brother Zheng frowned tightly when he heard what I said, and Third Brother Zheng said after a while

"If you calculate it carefully, I also have some relationship with your family, our Zheng family was also a big family back then, during the Republic of China, our Zheng family and your Liu family were married, that is the old yellow calendar, I have a good relationship with your father, if you count it from your father, you have to call me the third uncle, I have heard more or less about your father, so let's wait a few days you call me, let's talk about it"

After Zheng Sange finished speaking, he took out the business card box from his trouser pocket, took out a business card from it and handed it to me, I glanced at the words printed on the business card and almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood on the spot, which was printed: Mr. Zheng, the captain of the corpse collection team of the X City Funeral Parlor, wrote the phone number below.

Third Brother Zheng seemed to see what I was thinking, smiled and said to me that my name was just a title, and I also smiled at him and put away my business card.

I suddenly remembered the dream I had last night, I described the scene in the dream to Zheng Sange, and asked Zheng Sange if it would affect me, Zheng Sange patted me on the shoulder and said that there would be nothing wrong, it may be that I was thinking too much, and I could call him at any time if there was anything.
