Chapter 180: The Colorful Coffin (17)

On the way, all of us were in a low mood and didn't speak. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

After walking for a long time, Yang Yan asked me if I wanted to take a ride back to the Eight Immortals Palace, mainly because the Eight Immortals Palace was a little far away from our Xiahe Village, so I thought about it for a while, so I asked them to take a ride back first, and I planned to walk back.

It's not that I'm saving money, it's that I'm going to walk and think about how to deal with the little boss.

When Yang Yan saw that I didn't take a ride, he didn't mention it again, so he followed towards the Eight Immortals Palace.

Walking, walking, I felt very bitter in my heart, and I felt helpless, as long as I followed the rules, I couldn't think of any way to deal with the little boss.

Made, even if we know that we are losing, we Eight Immortals must try hard, otherwise, we will be ashamed of the name of our Eight Immortals.

At that moment, I was stunned, so I asked them if they had any friends or relatives with relatively high social status, and Li Jiangang said that there were, but there were, even his relatives, who would definitely not come over for the funeral.

I hummed and didn't speak again, he was right, just for a funeral, who would want to rush over to support the scene?

After a while, we arrived at the Eight Immortals Palace, which was sponsored by the old lady, covering an area of about three acres of land, and the top was covered with glaze, which was splendid, especially the eight immortals carved on the ridge, lifelike.

That Yang Yan seemed to see the Eight Immortals Palace for the first time, and he was stunned for a long time at the door, and said, "Brother Jiu, where did you get the money to build this palace?" ”

I smiled bitterly and said, "How can I have money, it's the money donated by the old lady, don't look good on the outside, it's not decorated inside!" ”

While speaking, I walked into the Eight Immortals Palace, which was full of all kinds of construction tools, plus some white ash, the whole hall seemed a little barren, more than 20 workers were constructing, and when we came in, a man in his forties came over.

This man is a small package foreman for the decoration of the Eight Immortals Palace, and You Shusong has a surname, also surnamed You, called You Zhibang, I have worked here for nearly half a year, and he pays his salary.

"Palace Master, why did you come to work at this time?" You Zhibang walked up to me and glanced at a few people around me again, his tone was quite kind, and he didn't mean to blame.

I smiled awkwardly and explained, "It's a bit of a personal matter, and it's delayed for some time, by the way, we'll use the Eight Immortals Palace later, see if you can stop working today." ”

"Don't start work?" He glanced at me suspiciously, "But, didn't you say that you should build the Eight Immortals Palace as soon as possible?" How now..."

I thought about it for a while, and I didn't hide it, so I told the little boss about it.

After hearing this, he thought for a while, and then said, "Palace Master, are you heavier than who invited you?" ”

I hummed, according to the rules of the coffin bearer, if it was placed in ancient times, it was not the weight of the people who were invited, but the identity of the eight coffin bearers, but the society has been progressing, and our coffin bearers have become more flexible, no longer looking at the identity of the eight coffin bearers, but looking at who invited the people to have weight.

To put it bluntly, there are virtuous and respected people in the town scene, and the funeral will be lively, for example, a certain immortal died in a certain place, and a certain big leader came, this is the character of the town scene.

I'm comparing myself to the little boss right now with the people in this town.

It looks naΓ―ve, but in our line of coffin bearers, there is such a rule that there really exists.

Seeing me nodding, You Zhibang seemed to think of something, patted me on the shoulder, and said, "Palace Master, I may be able to help you." ”

"Huh?" I was stunned, this You Zhibang is a small bag foreman, and the people he knows are probably also people from the construction line, which is not related to our coffin bearer! You must know that our rules are not only to invite people with weight, but also to invite people related to the funeral. For example: Taoist priests, feng shui masters, paper makers, etc.

It is precisely because of this that I am worried that the weight of the people invited by the little boss is too heavy, otherwise, I will definitely call the old lady, with her old man's identity, near the Eight Immortals Palace, who does not buy her old man's order, but the old lady can only be regarded as a commercial house, and has nothing to do with the funeral.

Seeing that You Zhibang didn't believe him, he smiled mysteriously and said, "Palace Master, do you know the suona team?" ”

"Huh? Suona team? "I was stunned, the suona team is also a kind of funeral industry, and there is even a suona craftsman's saying, especially in ancient times, the person who played the suona was heavier than our coffin bearer's identity, a song "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" witnessed the history of China for nearly a thousand years, and the suona itself has a history of thousands of years, and has become a kind of China's intangible heritage.

At this thought, my face was happy, and I grabbed his arm, "Do you know the local suona team?" ”

"Of course!"

When You Zhibang said this, his face was filled with a very strange expression, like arrogance and envy.

"Who?" I blurted out.

Before You Zhibang could speak, Li Jiangang spoke first, his voice was a little hurried, and he said: "Palace master, the most famous suona team near our Eight Immortals Palace is the Youjia class, and the head of the Youjia class happens to be Baotou's nephew!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at You Zhibang and continued, "I'm right! ”

"That's half right!" You Zhibang smiled and explained: "Palace master, my nephew has a stubborn personality and has always insisted that the suona team is better than foreign music, but it is a pity that the ancestors have thousands of years of craftsmanship to the present, few people have invited the suona team, what song and dance troupe are invited, my nephew refused to disband the suona team and form a song and dance troupe, and was scolded to death by his parents." ”

As soon as I heard this, I immediately understood, and if I guessed correctly, his nephew was similar to mine, so I asked him, "What is your nephew's name?" ”

"You Tianming!" He didn't think about it, and immediately said.

I thought about it for a while, I'm afraid that I can't help me as You Tianming's identity, but I am very close to You Tianming's friend, not for anything else, just because the two of us have always adhered to the craftsmanship inherited by our ancestors, so I said, "Is it convenient to invite him over now?" ”

"Convenient! Of course it's convenient! That You Zhi's face was overjoyed, and he continued: "Palace Master, I know that as You Tianming, I will definitely not be able to help you, but his master can definitely help you." ”

"His master?" I wondered.

"Yes, his master is a well-known suona craftsman in the entire south, the country/family once made a literary documentary, and it was his master who was invited, and his master was also protected by the country/family as a national treasure, and his identity is very heavy, and he has been living on our side all these years."

When You Zhibang said this, his eyebrows fluttered, and saliva foamed out.

When it was really a mountain and a water, and there was no way out, the willows and flowers were bright and another village, I didn't think about it, so I asked him to help introduce You Tianming, and then invited him to master through You Tianming.

You Zhibang readily agreed, and immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call, which rang for about three or four seconds, and he said, "Tianming! I'll introduce you to someone, and the two of you can definitely be friends who talk about everything, no..."

As he spoke, he paused, glanced at my face, and continued, "I believe you will become brothers, true brothers. ”

Then, You Zhibang said some homely words into the phone, chatting for about two minutes, before hanging up the phone and saying to me: "Tianming will be here in ten minutes!" (To be continued.) )
