Chapter 1 Marrying a Daughter-in-law
In Longmen City, in the old pedestrian street, in a fragrant shop, a middle-aged woman spitted and introduced: "Look at this face, this coffin, this ass, this leg, they are all superb!" ”
The woman's name is Zhang Jie, and she is promoting her daughter.
"There are eight characters, I found someone to see it, absolutely Wangfu Wangjia!"
Seeing that I didn't react, she took out another piece of red paper and put it on the counter, "Xiao Gu, look at it, this is Mr.'s approval!" ”
"You don't have to worry about it in the future, Xiaoxi has a good personality, she won't care how many you marry!" Zhang Jie chattered and continued.
"Is she your own?" I interrupted her.
"Xiao Gu, look at what you said, of course Xiao Xi is my own child!" Zhang Jie stiffened for a moment and said with a wry smile.
"That's what you're doing to her?" I asked, smirking.
Zhang Jie's face changed, and she opened her mouth to say something, I waved my hand, too lazy to continue with her, and took out three wades of money and threw them on the counter: "This is the bride price, and the rest will be sent later, you get out!" ”
"Hey!"
Zhang Jie's eyes emitted a light, and she didn't care about the word "roll", nodding flatteringly, while collecting money and walking out.
I rubbed my eyebrows, looked at the photo on the counter, and muttered, "With such a mother, what kind of life have you been living all these years?" ”
The girl in the photo is Chen Xi, 18 years old, died in a car accident five days ago, and is now sold to me by her own mother, and will become my daughter-in-law in a day.
My name is Gu Bei, the owner of the incense shop, and I am a part-time godstick.
Marrying a dead man is a matter of helplessness.
Since grandpa, the men of the Gu family have not lived past the age of thirty.
The second grandfather died the earliest, fourteen years old, and he didn't even leave a seed, and his father lived the longest, past his thirtieth birthday.
The people in the village said that our Gu family ancestors had done sins, bad retribution, and were born with broken lines, and the family was short-lived.
The ground pattern is a palmistry statement, and in popular terms, it is the lifeline, and the lifeline of a normal person is a complete arc, and the man's is fragmented.
In order to survive, from my grandfather's generation, I began to study yin and yang feng shui and eat the dead, the purpose is very simple, to accumulate yin virtue, and to seek a long life for my children and grandchildren.
The role is somewhat bit, my father is the longest-lived in the Gu family, and after my thirtieth birthday, I am twenty-four this year, and I am okay for the time being.
Counting it, it has been exactly ten years since I entered this industry at the age of fourteen.
In the past ten years, the most common thing to deal with is corpses, and there are many evil things encountered, such as eight-character murderers, corpses, feng shui Jedi, buying longevity, breaking children, burning stand-ins, and so on.
Chen Xi is my third daughter-in-law, and I don't know how many more I will marry next.
Marrying the dead, marrying the dead, and rushing into evil is the decision made by my grandmother, who is 90 years old and is the most famous goddess in our area and my only relative.
Marrying Chen Xi, my grandmother and I were ventilated, she said that Chen Xi was full of yin, and her life was full of evil, and she was a good match for me.
I don't know if it's worthy or not, I just know that the trouble is coming, the first two times I married back was a tablet, and this time I married back a corpse.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, I closed the door of the store, drove my second-hand gold cup, and returned to my hometown.
From the city to my hometown in the countryside, less than an hour away, it is very close, but I rarely come back, and after a year, except for the Chinese New Year and my father's death day, I basically do not come back, and my hometown gives me the impression that it is one funeral after another.
My grandmother is very capable of giving birth, there are eight brothers in my grandfather's generation, my father's generation, and there are seventeen cousins combined, and in my generation, only one of them died.
An hour later, the car stopped in front of the old house.
The old mansion is a compound consisting of six bungalows, and the grandmother lives alone at home.
For my grandmother, I am in awe and awe, most of my skills are taught by my grandmother, without my grandmother, the Gu family would have been finished.
However, in recent years, grandma has become more and more wrong, and her popularity has become less and less.
"Oops, Xiao Gu is back!"
As soon as he got out of the car, a flattering voice came from the courtyard, the door creaked open, and Zhang Jie walked out.
"Why are you here?"
I was a little surprised, and looked up at the courtyard, where a shed had been set up, and the word "happiness" was pasted, and two red lanterns were hung at the door.
"I asked her to come!"
A hoarse voice sounded, and the grandmother held a cigarette pouch pot and appeared in sight.
With a black coat, neatly combed white hair, wrinkled skin, and sunken eye sockets, Grandma was as gloomy as ever.
"Ma'am!"
I exclaimed with a smile on my face.
"I can't wait, the time is early, I'll go to the church today to get married, come in!" Grandma said something in a hoarse voice, and leaned into the house.
I frowned, grandma was a little wrong today, and Zhang Jie, although she was the same as during the day, with a flattering face, but that look was a little strange, fluttering, and unfocused.
There was no light in the room, but red candles were burning, and orange candles were paved in every corner.
Entering the bedroom, there was a woman sitting on the kang with a red hijab and wearing a bright red wedding dress, there is no doubt that this is my bride Chen Xi.
"Come, come to the church!"
Grandma took out three sticks of incense, lit them, inserted them in the incense burner, sat down at the offering table, and motioned for me to kneel and bow.
I glanced sideways at Zhang Jie, her body was completely frozen, standing at the door and not entering, nor retreating.
"Come in!"
Grandma glanced at her, and Zhang Jie entered the room and sat on the chair tremblingly.
I took out a red rope, took Chen Xi's hand, tied my thumbs with her, and made a kneeling posture.
"Let's go into the cave!"
Grandma nodded with satisfaction, walked out, and when she walked to the door, she paused and turned around: "Take good care of your daughter-in-law!" ”
After saying that, he didn't care about my reaction, turned around and left.
Grandma has something to say, but a corpse, what does I need to take care of?
After closing the door, only me and Chen Xi were left in the room, sitting by the kang, I looked at Chen Xi sideways, and I had an indescribable feeling.
I have seen a lot of corpses over the years, but it is the first time to say that I have shared a bed with a corpse, and I am afraid that I am not afraid, I just think it is very strange.
According to Feng Shui, being hit by a car and dying is a horizontal death, and within three sevens, the resentment is the heaviest, that is to say, I have to sleep with her for 16 days before I can bury her.
With the current weather, after sixteen days, the corpse is not what it looks like, and I have to get a coffin with a refrigeration function when I go back.
Thinking silently in my heart, I climbed on the kang, the first two times, I entered the cave with the urn, this time I upgraded, and the corpse entered the cave room.
Flattened the body and lifted the hijab, revealing a pale little face with a tightly knit brow, if it weren't for this car accident, Chen Xi would have gone to the second year of high school, and in another year, he would have been admitted to college.
I felt a little pity, shook my head and lay down on my back, lying down for a while, I sat up again, something was wrong with Chen Xi, her body was too cold, as if it had just been taken out of the freezer.
Also, Chen Xi has been dead for five days, and it stands to reason that there should have been corpse spots a long time ago, but that face, without any change, seems to be asleep.
Looking at Chen Xi again, her face was sickly pale, her brows were furrowed, and she looked very painful, I tried to smooth her brows, and a strange touch came, and there was a hard lump in the center of her eyebrows.
Scraping the lump with his fingernails, he lifted a finger-sized piece of milky white rubber, revealing a pitch-black round head.
"Grass!"
I subconsciously scolded, and my face changed, and Chen Xi's eyebrows were nailed into a nail.
In our industry, this is called the soul locking nail, which is to lock the soul in the corpse to prevent the corpse from becoming a ghost, so that people cannot be reborn.
Chen Xi is an eighteen-year-old girl, who has such a deep enmity with her?
"Zhang Jie!"
A flattering face immediately popped up in my mind, my daughter died, and there was no trace of sadness on my face, but I sold my daughter at the first time, which was obviously abnormal.
"I want to see what the hell you've done!"
I got off the kang and walked to the cabinet, rummaging for tools, intending to nail out the locked soul of Chen Xi's eyebrows.
Turning out the toolbox, I stood up and was just about to leave, when the corner of my eye swept to the mirror above, and this glance made me stunned for a moment.
There was a person on my back, she was wearing a bright red wedding dress, wearing a crown of xia on her head, a tassel made of more than ten pearls hung down, and a pair of dark eyes could be faintly seen behind her.
