Soul restoration

It was the winter of 2010, I was invited by Dong Daoyou of Qianyuan Mountain to come to C City, which is called "Shu" and "Xijun", known as "the road has the danger of the Jinjiang River, and the land is even the hero of the Sword Pavilion." It was returned 208 miles and more than 30,000 miles. "It's the end of the air swallowing mountains and rivers.

As soon as I got off the plane, I only felt a warm tide in my face, you must know that in this cold winter, the weather in the Northeast has already been dripping into ice, and there is no moisture in the air.

The one who picked up the plane was Dong Daoyou's apprentice, a young man less than 1.7 meters tall, with dark skin, bright eyes, muscular bumps, and calluses on his hands. "Yang Dao is good," the young man said with a spring breeze on his face, "I'm going down to the sixth line at home, you can call me Xiao Liuzi, come, I'll help you get your luggage." As he spoke, he had already taken the suitcase in my hand.

I often go out, so the suitcase is also extra-large, full of food, clothing, and often have to pay the consignment fee on the plane, thinking that it is almost the same if there is no fifty or seventy pounds, but in the hands of Xiao Liuzi, it is lightweight, which makes people surprised. Xiao Liuzi seemed to understand my thoughts, and touched his head embarrassedly and smiled shyly, "The Taoist chief may not know, but we are here," he said to help me open the car door, and when I got into the car, he continued, "Our Taoist priests here all need to cultivate by themselves, and there are often wild beasts in the mountains, and they have to know how to use a means in the temple, so they also have the strength to do it." ”

"I see," I said, rolling down the window, lighting a cigarette, and gulping down, "We can 'touch our hands" when we have time (the jargon of the martial arts world, meaning "friendly exchange")', now there are too few martial arts practitioners in the northern temples, and it is rare to meet a practitioner, haha." ”

"Haha," Xiao Liuzi looked up to the sky and snorted, "I don't dare to try with you, if this is known by the master, he won't break my dog's legs~" After that, Xiao Liuzi also rolled down the window and lit a cigarette, "How did Yang Daochang and the family teacher meet?" The family teacher rarely invites Taoist friends to the temple as guests. ”

"Oh," I was slightly stunned, falling into memory, "that was a few years ago, when I went back to Wudang Mountain to learn high martial arts with my master, your master learned martial arts in the martial arts hall on the mountain, and once I couldn't sleep after the curfew, so I slipped out of the temple gate, it happened that your master was practicing swords in the pavilion on the mountain west of Zixiao Palace, I saw the rise, so I took the sword to practice with him, and when I was tired of practice, I went to the shop to eat and drink together, chatting while eating, it was very speculative, so I often met to practice boxing at night, and I came and went, and I was similar to my own brothers. ”

Chatting and chatting, Xiao Liuzi and I each opened up the conversation, chatting and laughing all the way, and driving on the steep mountain road back to not mention.

About two or three hours, Xiao Liuzi sent me downstairs to the Changhong International Hotel in M City, and asked me to go to the banquet hall first, and he went to park the car himself. But I said that I came to the door of the banquet hall, slightly cleaned up a slightly messy bun, straightened the mixed yuan scarf on my head, raised my hand and was about to knock on the door, but I heard a familiar and vicissitudes of life voice behind me, "Old Yang? Is it Lao Yang? When he looked back, it was a familiar figure, and he came to the cut in a hurry, "Oh, Lao Yang, I haven't seen you for many years, are you blessed?" As he spoke, a pair of big wet hands tightly pinched my hands, and with dark energy, only my hands were numb.

"Lao Dong?" I laughed awkwardly, "Why are you behind me?" And what about me, aren't you also blessed? Huh? The beard seems to have grown longer~haha~", while joking, while gluing the tongue column, transporting the dantian force and pouring it into his hands.

"Yes, I just came out to change my hand (Sichuan dialect, toilet)," he said, pulling his hand out, "Come on, come on, I'll introduce you to a few senior brothers." With that, he pushed me into the banquet hall.

When I entered the hall, I saw that the round table was already full of friends, Dong Daoyou asked me to sit in the guest seat and said, "Lao Yang, you are too slow, eh, we will wait for you to open the table," said, opened a bottle of Moutai and was about to pour me wine, I saw this, I was busy getting up and thanking me, but I only felt a huge force on my right shoulder, and my body was like lead in an instant, "Don't get up, sit, if you dare to get up, drink a bottle," Dong Daoyou teased, "It's been a long time, my brother will pour you a glass of wine, let's get drunk today." As he spoke, he returned to the main seat, and after introducing them one by one, it was no problem to push the cup and change the lamp.

But he said, after three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, Lao Dong was just about to speak, only to hear the sound of the phone in his arms, Lao Dong picked up the phone, frowned, sighed tooth flower, and answered helplessly, and then his expression changed and changed, his brows twisted into a pimple, and hung up the phone stupidly, just when everyone looked at him suspiciously, Lao Dong opened his mouth and said, "Everyone, I can't drink tonight~" said, and slammed the wine glass on the table, "Turtle son, I X his ancestors, what's the matter?!" ”

"Senior brother?" , A Taoist friend surnamed Sun who was sitting on my right hand stroked his beard and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"Uncle Shi," a Taoist friend surnamed Ruan who was sitting opposite me also asked hurriedly, "What the hell is going on, are you talking~"

I saw Lao Dong crying and laughing, "Ahem," then cleared his throat and said, "It was Di Lihao's phone call in the temple just now, saying that he had committed a ball and was escorted to the police station, and asked me to get someone." Then he turned his head to me, his eyes were like lightning, and continued, "Old Yang, this Di Lihao is also from your Xuanwu faction, you two should be senior brothers, right?" ”

"Oh? If it is true that it is the same ancestor and the same ancestry, it is true that it is the same ancestry," I said a little confused, "However, I have never heard such a family teacher mention such a person, so I guess it is the disciple of which uncle, right?" ”

"Oh," Lao Dong retracted his angry gaze and said slowly, "Senior Brother Sun will go out with me, and you will continue to drink." With that, he brushed his sleeves and got up.

I secretly wondered, Lao Dong's temperament is like a fire, and he has drunk alcohol, if he starts a temper, how can his junior brother surnamed Sun stop him. So he also leaned away from the table and said, "Lao Dong, I have been in the car for a while, and I am idle, so I will go with you, how about I relax?" ”

Lao Dong was stunned for a moment, and then realized, "It would be great if Brother Xian could go with me." The group had nothing to say on the road.

When I arrived at the police station, the policeman on duty at night was surnamed Wu, and when he saw that Lao Dong arrived, he was familiar with it, so he hurriedly got up to greet him, "Good evening Dong Daochang, I'm really embarrassed to be so late," Lao Dong listened, and was about to reply, but he heard the police officer continue to say to himself, "Today this person said that it was from your temple, but this matter is troublesome... ”

Saying that, Officer Wu let us go to the director's room, the director nodded to Officer Wu, Officer Wu retreated and closed the door, the director turned around and saw that it was Lao Dong who couldn't help but be polite, and didn't wait to sit down, so he said: "Lao Dong, what is this," said a little meditative, "Oh! By the way, Di Lihao, right? As he spoke, he glanced at me and Sun Daoyou, nodded without a smile and continued, "Is it from your temple?" ”

"Director Li is good," Lao Dong sat on the sofa with a big grin, "Di Lihao is indeed a permanent resident of our temple, I don't know what he has done?" ”

"Oh, that's good, haha~", as he spoke, Director Li picked up two teacups, walked to the water dispenser, and said while receiving water, "Tonight is the case reported by Xiao Wang, the secretary of the president of the Third Hospital of M City, saying that it is that their President Liu quarreled with his lover a few days ago, and he didn't go home after work at night, and he patrolled the hospital at night, and happened to come to the morgue," Director Li put the teacup on Lao Dong's table, sat down on the sofa on Lao Dong's right hand, crossed Erlang's legs and continued, "As a result, he screamed at the door of the morgue and became unconscious, At that time, Xiao Wang followed behind Liu Yuan, hey! The little girl, after all, was scared, she didn't dare to go to that place at night, so she waited for him not far behind Liu Yuan, but when she got closer, it was Di Dao standing beside Liu Yuan with a mouth full of wine, so she screamed and ran back to call the police. ”

As he spoke, Director Li patted his thigh and continued, "We sent the police to take Chief Di Dao back to the office, he was not very cooperative with our work, and kept shouting grievances, and now we suspect that he caused a personal attack on Dean Liu, causing Liu Yuan to fall into a coma, of course, we can't be sure yet, but we suspect that Liu Yuan is still in a coma and is being rescued." ”

"Huh?" Lao Dong gasped, "This thing is too strange, this Di Lihao is famous for his good temper in the temple, saying that he has a good temper is to praise him, he is a cowardly person, if he says that he caused personal harm to Liu Yuan, I don't believe anything, so let's go and see Di Lihao, we want to ask him what he said in person." ”

"According to the regulations, no," Director Li narrowed his eyes and said, "But you, go, go." ”

"Director Xie Li is accommodating~" Lao Dong said and stood up, bowing slightly to say goodbye.

"However," we were about to leave, and Director Li's leisurely voice came from behind us, "For the sake of justice, when you chat, you must be supervised by the police officers on the spot, I hope you understand." ”

Lao Dong Fang was about to be angry, so I hurriedly grabbed Sun Daoyou's hand one by one, and Sun Daoyou replied respectfully, "Thank you!" They left together and went straight to the detention cell.

When I arrived at the detention room, I saw a person curled up on the bench, and when the person saw that Dong Daoyou had arrived, he hurriedly stood up with a rolling belt, but saw that this person was only one meter six or five tall, white and fat, with a bun face, a collapsed nose bridge, a catfish mouth, and a pair of eyes the size of soybean grains that had cried to the size of an egg, with snot and tears on his face, unspeakable grievances, and inexhaustible sadness.

"The head of the house (the Taoist priest who lives in the temple is the name of the temple steward), help~", Di Lihao let out a miserable howl like killing a pig, "The master, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone, woo~ woo!" I've been wronged~"

"Smack!" Lao Dong was also angry, and when he came to Di Lihao's approach, he rounded his mouth and said angrily, "You turtle son!" I don't sleep in the temple in the middle of the night, I go to the hospital to do something! ”

Di Lihao was aggrieved, he was slapped in vain, and he wanted to kneel, but his hand was hand-chained to the back of the chair, and he couldn't kneel, so he could only half-squat, crying, "It's really not me, I don't have it!" ”

Dong Daoyou was about to fight again, but at this time, Sun Daoyou and I hurriedly stopped, "Old Dong," I said, "Don't be busy first, and ask clearly, and then it's not too late to do it!" ”

"What are you waiting for?" Lao Dong looked at Di Lihao and said viciously, "Say! ”

Di Lihao was already frightened at this time, crying and telling what happened, "That's right, in the first month, one day, I chatted with a pilgrim and learned that the morgue of the Third Courtyard was often disturbing, and no one wanted to go to the night watch. Then, his night wage rose from 2,000 to 3,000 a month, then from 3,000 to 4,000, and then to 5,000 by the time I knew about it. I thought, isn't it just a night, where to sleep at night is not sleeping, not to mention, we are not afraid of this, besides, the single fee on the temple is pitiful... Speaking of this, Di Lihao peeked at Lao Dong, and saw that the latter was not angry, so he continued, "So, I secretly went to the Third Courtyard to take over the job. The first few days were fine, but after a while, I felt that the night was too monotonous, not interesting, there was no living person, there was no phone signal, and the headlights were not allowed at night, it was really boring. However, I found that the morgue was a really good place, and the night watchmen did not come, so I often bought some wine and meat and poured myself drinks at night, which was also merry. ”

Speaking of this, Di Lihao looked up at Lao Dong, intending to ask for a cigarette, Lao Dong glared, scared Di Lihao into a thrill, and continued unreally, "Later, I thought it was really boring to always drink alone, so I wanted to find a friend to drink together, but everyone heard that it was this place, and no one wanted to come, until a young female corpse was sent a few days ago, I saw that she had not been dead for a long time, and the corpse was not stiff, so I waited for the family to leave, and secretly took her out of the cabinet and used it. 'Soul restoration' detains her soul on her corpse and allows her to drink and chat with me. When I was almost drunk, I sent her soul away, so that I would never be alone at night. ”

Speaking of this, Sun Daoyou and I glanced at Lao Dong helplessly, "You turtle grandson," Lao Dong scolded, "This 'soul restoration technique' was originally used to hang the breath so that the deceased could explain the aftermath when the old man whose children were not around passed away." How dare you use it for fun? You have trampled all the good things left by your ancestors, and you don't understand at least the rules?! Aren't you afraid of rotten Dao casting and sending down the Nine Heavens Divine Punishment?! Lao Dong's almost roaring voice was finished, but Di Lihao cried heartbreakingly.

I only heard Di Lihao whimper: "Boss, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, you save me!" He doesn't blame me for this tonight! Tonight, as usual, I summoned a corpse and was drinking, when suddenly there was a 'woo' outside the door! With a terrible scream, I hurried away the soul of the female corpse, and when I went out to look, I saw an old man lying on the ground, and a woman ran away screaming, and before I could figure out what was going on, I was arrested here, and they asked me what had happened, and I told me what happened, and no one believed me. Said I killed someone, I didn't kill anyone, the boss, you save me, woo~"

When Lao Dong heard this, he roared for a while and didn't mention it, but said that at this moment, Officer Wu opened the door and walked into the detention room, nodded to the three of us, and said, "Daochang Dong, all Daochang, just now the hospital called, Dean Liu woke up, except that his mind was in a trance, there is nothing wrong with what he said, the reporter withdrew the case, and we will take Daoist Di to make a record in a while, so let him go back with you." ”

。。。。。。

After about a stick of incense, the police station withdrew the case on the grounds that Di Daochang was drunk and in a trance, and Dean Liu's perennial work pressure caused hallucinations. And Dean Liu also retired early a month later, but it was a later story

。。。。。。

After half a year, the state abolished the system of setting up morgues in hospitals, and instead kept all the bodies in funeral homes
