Chapter 4: The Devil Hits the Wall
"Is my daughter pretty?" Ms. Wang looked at her daughter with tears in her eyes and asked me.
"Very beautiful" I nodded and said to Ms. Wang, my words are not perfunctory, her daughter is indeed very beautiful, although it is not a country and a city, but it can be regarded as a closed moon and a shy flower.
"If my daughter were alive, would you like to have a relationship with my daughter and be her boyfriend?" Ms. Wang turned to me as she said this, and looked at me seriously.
"I, of course I'm willing" I squeezed out a smile at Ms. Wang when I said this, originally I didn't want to say anything, I said this to comfort Ms. Wang.
"My poor stupid daughter, there are so many good men in this world, why can't you think about it, woo, woo, woo......" After Ms. Wang said this, she squatted on the ground and became painful, crying so heartbroken, Ms. Wang's mood at this time I also understand, white-haired people send black-haired people is unbearable pain in life.
"Aunt Wang, don't be sad, let's mourn and change," I leaned down and helped Ms. Wang up and comforted.
"Young man, my daughter is dead, can you call me Mom, satisfy me, just shout for my daughter" Ms. Wang cried to me, I also felt embarrassed to hear Ms. Wang's request, but I also felt sorry for her when I saw her sad appearance, in fact, I also hope to have such a mother in my heart.
"Mom" I shouted at Ms. Wang, Ms. Wang was very excited when she heard me shouting Mom, she quickly took out a big red envelope from her pocket and stuffed it into my hand.
"This is the money I gave you to change your mouth, you take it, this mother can't let you scream in vain" Ms. Wang said to me while wiping her tears, I pinched the red envelope in my hand and I felt that the weight was not light, it was either 8,000 or 10,000, I didn't expect this Ms. Wang to be so generous.
"I can't take this money, you better take it back" I hurriedly stuffed the red envelope in my hand into Ms. Wang's hand, although I was short of money, but I knew since I was a child that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, and I can't take other people's money.
"Young man, give you this money, you can take it, I don't lack this money at home, today I should call you to do such an unfortunate thing to give you a red envelope, that's it, if you return it back, I will be angry" Ms. Wang forced the big red envelope into my pocket, and finally I couldn't help Ms. Wang had to accept the big red envelope, I really didn't expect to make so much money here today.
At about 7 o'clock in the morning, Ms. Wang's house was deserted and no one came to mourn, so we waited for a while and the funeral home's hearse drove downstairs to Ms. Wang's house.
"Ms. Wang, the funeral home's hearse has arrived, it's time to send your daughter away," Mr. Bai Shi said softly to Ms. Wang.
Ms. Wang nodded in response, and then she walked to her daughter's bed and stretched out her hand to caress her daughter's face reluctantly, Ms. Wang's tears couldn't stop dripping.
"Liu Shou, you can carry my daughter downstairs now," Ms. Wang turned around and wiped her tears, looked at me and commanded.
"Okay" So I hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out two hands to help Ms. Wang's daughter up from the bed first, because Ms. Wang's daughter had been dead for three days, and it was still in such a cold room, her body became a little stiff, and Ms. Wang helped me to hold her daughter on top of me.
The stiff and cold girl on my back, my whole body is only shivering, I am not only numb scalp now, my heart is also beating non-stop, the more scared I am, the more the girl's face on my back leans towards my face, when the girl's cold face leans against my face, my frightened legs are weak, and I want to cry now.
Mr. Bai Shi put the mourning basin prepared in advance at the door, and then picked up half a dozen yellow paper and threw it into the mourning basin and lit it.
"Young man, come over and step over the brazier, and you can go downstairs" Mr. Bai Shi beckoned me over, and I stayed where I was at this time, not because I didn't want to go over, but because I was so frightened that I didn't even have the strength to take a step.
"What are you thinking there, young man, come over and step over to the brazier," said Mr. Bai Shi to me again.
"Old man, I have weak legs and can't walk, can you come and help me," I said to Mr. Bai Shi with a sad face.
"Alas, you are really troublesome, what kind of work do you have such a small guts" Mr. Bai Shi said this impatiently, and quickly walked to my side, grabbed my arm and helped me to the brazier in front of the door, I looked at the brazier on the ground and felt very uncomfortable, this brazier is a ceremony at our Han wedding, the bride will cross a brazier when she gets married, which means that the future days will be prosperous, as for why I want to step into the brazier, it is estimated that it is to drive away the bad luck on the body.
"Be careful, take a big stride," Mr. Bai Shi instructed me, and I nodded and strode over the brazier to the door, when Ms. Wang suddenly burst into tears.
"Daughter, why are you so ruthless and leave your mother alone, how will you let your mother live in the future........." Ms. Wang sat on the ground and looked at my daughter behind me crying, at this time I stopped and looked at Ms. Wang sitting on the ground.
When Mr. Bai Shi saw that I stopped, he gave me a look, which meant to tell me to carry her daughter downstairs quickly, and I nodded without saying a word and went downstairs.
I went out, but I vaguely heard the evil smile of Mr. Bai Shi in the room: "That stupid boy has already signed this...... The voice became smaller and smaller, and I didn't hear it clearly, and I wondered if the piece of paper I had just signed was weird.
"You did a good job in this matter," Ms. Wang said and took out 20,000 yuan from her handbag and handed it to Mr. Bai Shi.
"Thank you," Mr. Bai Shi's face was about to bloom when he took the 20,000 yuan from Ms. Wang's hand.
"I hope you don't tell anyone about this," Ms. Wang cautiously instructed Mr. Bai Shi.
"Don't worry, God knows this matter, you know it, I know it, I won't let a third person know," Mr. Bai Shi assured Ms. Wang, who nodded with satisfaction after listening to Mr. Bai Shi's words.
"Let's go, let's go down too" Ms. Wang locked the door and took the elevator downstairs with Mr. Bai Shi.
I carried the corpse of Ms. Wang's daughter, if I want to say that I am not afraid, it is all fake, I hold the corpse behind me with one hand, and walk down the staircase with the other hand, this corpse will not be done for a lifetime, and I will not think about it for the rest of my life, I really admire the courage of those who carry the corpse.
I shuddered and walked down the floor silently counting one in my mind, trying not to think about the female corpse on my back now, but to distract myself from the number of floors of the stairs.
"One, two.... Five..... Seven.... Eight.... Nine "I was a little confused when I counted to nine, it stands to reason that I should go to the first floor when I count to eight, how can there be more than one floor, and there are floors to go down to, at this time a layer of cold sweat broke out on my head, I just patronized and looked down to count the floors, and I didn't pay attention to the floor number on the wall, when I looked up at the floor number on the wall, I almost sat on the ground in fright, because I saw that the number written in the floor number was eight, at this time I stopped on the floor of the female corpse on my back.
"What is this trouble" I said this sentence and tears flowed down my eyes, and at the same time I kept silently reciting "Nam no Amitabha" in my heart.
I gritted my teeth and continued to walk downstairs, it was not a way to stand like this, this time I walked downstairs while looking at the floor number, and when I got to the next floor, I was completely desperate, because the number on the next floor still had eight written on it.
"But I don't play like this, my aunt and grandmother have no enmity with you, don't scare me, okay?" At this moment my heart was broken, and just when I was in a dilemma, the phone in my pocket rang, and I was so frightened by my phone that I almost peed my pants.
"Hey" I held the female corpse behind me with one hand, and then took out the phone with one hand to answer the phone, it was Ms. Wang who called.
"Why don't you go downstairs yet," Ms. Wang's hurried voice came from the other end of the phone.
I ...... "I don't even know how to explain this to Ms. Wang."
"I asked Mr. Bai Shi to go upstairs to pick you up, you guys come down quickly," Ms. Wang hung up after saying this on the phone.
"What's the matter with you kid, the funeral parlor's hearse is waiting for you downstairs, what are you doing standing still here?" Mr. Bai Shi said to me angrily as he walked over from the elevator.
"Sir, I just really went downstairs, I seem to have met a ghost hitting the wall, no matter how I walk, I have been circling around these eight floors, I can't get out" My body trembled a little when I said this, and my legs were trembling constantly.
"Roll the calf, what the hell hit the wall, there is a monitoring room downstairs, we see you stop here and don't move, you kid is afraid, hurt my old man Bai ran up" Mr. Bai Shi pointed to the monitoring on the upper right of my head and said to me, after hearing Mr. Bai Shi's words, the cold sweat on my forehead instantly appeared.
"Then old gentleman, come downstairs with me, I'm really afraid," I begged Mr. Bai Shi with a sad face.
"It's really unlucky, it's the first time I've met such a timid corpse bearer like you, let's go, let's go downstairs quickly" Mr. Bai Shi walked in front after saying this, I quickly followed Mr. Bai Shi downstairs, Mr. Bai Shi muttered while walking, and I didn't know what he was talking about.
