Chapter 2 Chen Xi is alive

Hell yes.

That was my first reaction.

After being stunned for a moment, I shrugged my shoulders reflexively, and the woman behind me was steady and still in her original posture.

He took out the black leather of the short dagger from the toolbox, stabbed it back, and stabbed it into the air.

Changed to a red rope and threw it back, also hitting a void.

The black skin is a short dagger made of a blade, with a square black blade, with rust, grandma said that it was a ghost head knife, which was used to cut off the head of the vegetable market in the former Qing Dynasty; The red rope has been soaked in rooster blood, these two things are evil-breaking, how can they be useless?

I vaguely guessed a possibility and turned to find my grandmother.

When I opened the door, I saw Zhang Jie kneeling in the middle of the courtyard, and my grandmother was sitting with her back to me, smoking a cigarette bag and pot, and a red light flickered in the darkness.

Spit out a puff of smoke rings, and grandma knocked Zhang Jie with a cigarette stick: "You go, take the money too!" ”

Zhang Jie stood up tremblingly, picked up the bag containing the money, turned around and walked out, I was just about to shout to stop, and noticed that Zhang Jie was walking in the wrong posture.

Her body was tossed and turned, her heels cocked, all supported by her toes.

Ghost tiptoeing.

"Ma'am, she?" I pointed at Zhang Jie.

"It's a pity for Xiaoxi, this girl married into our Gu family, she is the Gu family, her revenge is avenged, I will help her collect some interest first!" Grandma spit out another puff of smoke rings and glanced at Zhang Jie, who was walking out.

I was stunned for a moment, and looked at what this meant, my grandmother knew that Chen Xi's eyebrows were nailed.

"Grandson, come here!"

Grandma knocked her cigarette pouch and beckoned to me.

After some hesitation, I walked over anyway, and my grandmother suddenly raised her cigarette pouch and smashed it down on my left shoulder, and there was a crisp ding sound in my ears, followed by the sound of burnt flesh.

I shivered in pain, and my grandmother also gasped, leaning weakly on me, a piercing coldness came from her, and I shivered again, this temperature reminded me of frozen meat that had been in the freezer for months.

Grandma slowed down, helped me stand up, and said: "The woman on your back is temporarily sealed, you don't have to ask, you don't have to think about it, everything has grandma!" ”

"Early tomorrow morning, you take Xiaoxi back to the store and come back in half a month!" My grandmother didn't give me a chance to ask questions, so she added, carrying a cigarette pouch and tiptoeing to her room.

I know my grandmother's character, she wants to tell me, even if I don't ask, she will say, she doesn't want to say, even if the knife is on her neck, she won't say it.

But I finally have a date, and I can see it in half a month, in fact, I have some bottom in my heart, the woman on my back, maybe it's the curse that has plagued our Gu family for many years.

My grandmother gave birth to eight sons, and our one is the most special.

There are many kinds of Yin family meals.

As far as I know, some of our Gu family members have worked as second-leather craftsmen, been yin children, guarded tombs, played Gu, and have soul pullers.

The grandfather is a second leather maker, which is commonly known as the corpse sewing craftsman, who does the work of sewing corpses, and it is rumored that the corpse sewing craftsmen can use the needle and thread in their hands to sew up the mutilated soul.

According to the villagers, the grandfather sewed himself into a corpse in order to survive.

I asked my grandmother, and she told me to ignore the broken mouths in the village.

The second grandfather died the earliest, and the grandmother said that he was the reincarnation of a yin child, which is the reincarnation of a child who died without an adult.

Because of this identity, the grandmother asked the second grandfather to be a stand-in to bear the debt, and it is unknown whether the second grandfather died of a curse or died of the debt on his body.

The fourth grandfather and the fifth grandfather were tomb guards, and it is not known which cemetery they guarded, and it is said that they were very miserable when they died.

The sixth grandfather was playing with Gu, and when he died, a swarm of flies flew out of his eye sockets.

The seventh grandfather is soul-pulling, which is commonly known as the yin.

My grandfather is the eighth child, and he does the work of Mr. Yin and Yang, showing people the Yin Mansion and Zhang Luo Baishi, which is the safest one.

My father and I inherited my grandfather's craft, and over the years, we have encountered a lot of evil things, but they are all safe and sound.

Even if something happens, Grandma will wipe our butts for the two of us.

The other ones were not without resentment in their hearts, but under the strength of their grandmothers, they all chose to compromise in the end.

Back in the house, I looked in the mirror and the woman on my back was gone.

I breathed a sigh of relief, took out a carving knife from the toolbox, carefully inserted it along Chen Xi's eyebrows, and pried it out little by little, and the nail came out.

The nails are about eight centimeters long, tridiamond-shaped, blackened throughout, wooden, and not iron nails in the general sense.

"Lightning strikes wood!"

I quickly came to the conclusion and set my sights on Chen Xi again, this is not just to lock her soul, but to let her soul fly away.

"Did you really give birth to your mother?" I asked, staring at the little pale face.

Chen Xi didn't answer, and he couldn't answer.

Nothing happened overnight.

When I got up in the morning, I moved Chen Xi into the car and went back directly.

As for Grandma, there is no need to say hello, three years ago, after the death of the last cousin, Grandma Tai set a rule that no one would be seen before noon, including me.

Have a safe trip.

After returning to the store, I rented a coffin with a refrigeration function, settled Chen Xi, and life returned to peace.

My incense shop is located at the junction of urban and rural areas in Longmen City, with a storefront in front and a closed courtyard in the back, with a lower room and two houses.

The house was bought by my father when he was alive, and when I had a job, I went out to pick up the job, and when I didn't work, I looked at the store.

Most of the incense sold in the store is cheap, and the expensive ones are made by themselves.

The craft of making incense was passed on by her grandmother, and she said that after the curse was lifted, with this craft in her body, she could mix well anywhere.

Saying that, what kind of curse is it, no one has seen it before, so many people have died in the Gu family, I'm afraid I'm the first to see it.

Grandma is a person who is full of mysteries.

The second leatherman of the grandfather's club, the sixth grandfather playing Gu, and the seventh grandfather pulling the soul, these are all taught by the grandmother.

According to the people in the village, Grandma Tai has no teacher, has never worshipped a teacher, and has not looked for a fairy family to set up a hall, but she can do anything.

Some people say that the curse of the Gu family was brought by the grandmother, and some people say that so many people died in the Gu family, and they were borrowed by the grandmother.

For these statements, Grandma Tai has never cared about them.

The morning after taking Chen Xi home, I took a job to be a guest of white affairs, and in layman's terms, he was the funeral host.

I was in a hurry, so I checked Chen Xi and drove out after confirming that he was fine.

Things went very smoothly, I was busy in the morning, and I had dinner at my employer's house at noon, and it was already more than three o'clock when I got home.

As soon as I entered the store, I noticed that something was wrong.

I like incense, I will come to a piece every day, and if I have a job today, I will not smoke it, but this time, there is a faint smell of sandalwood wafting in the store.

I walked up to my copper incense burner and opened the lid to see a plate of burnt incense, someone had touched it.

In addition, the store has obviously been cleaned, and the garbage left yesterday is gone, and the ground has been dragged over, and it is a lot brighter.

There was a thousand dollars in the cash drawer, and three hundred were missing.

It can't be a thief, a thief won't take just three hundred, I didn't hire anyone, and I can't hire a hired worker to do it.

No matter who it is, the store must be filled with people!

Realizing this, I immediately rushed to the backyard, and the moment I saw the coffin, I was stunned for a moment, Chen Xi was gone.

However, my attention was soon attracted by a note posted on the coffin, on which was a line of delicate and playful small words - husband, I have returned to my parents' house, and I will be found when I am done.

When I saw this line of words, my mind buzzed, and four words popped up - three days to return to the door.

The three-day return refers to the custom of the bride and groom returning to the woman's house together on the third day after marriage, that is, Chen Xi went home.

A corpse, how to get home?

Whether it's true or not, I'll have to check it out.

Zhang Jie's family is not in the city, but in Xiaoliu Village, which is more than 300 miles away from the city.

It was four o'clock when I left, and it was almost seven o'clock when I arrived, and it was already dark.

I have been to Xiaoliu Village before, the village is not large, there are more than 50 households in total, most of the villagers are working outside, and there are only more than 10 people in the village.

As soon as I entered the village, I felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and the village was quiet and scary.

I didn't drive far along the village road, and I saw a girl standing on the side of the road waving to me, with a pale face, a slender figure, and a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, it was Chen Xi.
