Chapter 8: The First Seven Souls
The former site of the Tranquility Garden Cemetery was a mass grave. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was transformed into a large-scale comprehensive site integrating funeral parlors, crematoriums, and cemeteries.
In the past few years, people paid attention to "returning the soul to their hometown", and most of them were put into the coffin after death and transported back to their hometown for burial.
Nowadays, times have changed, and land resources are becoming increasingly scarce.
There are not so many places in my hometown, so I can only find a place to bury nearby.
Anning Garden has also gradually become popular, and every pit has been sold for more than 100,000 yuan.
Coupled with additional services such as cremation and placement of mourning halls, the minimum package is more than 150,000 yuan.
In these days, it is very difficult to maintain dignity after death.
As for being a decent person in life? Then you can only hehe!
When Chu Lei arrived at Anning Garden, it was approaching evening.
"It's a little cold!" Chu Lei rubbed his arm.
This kind of cold is not the coldness of the weather, but the coldness that soaks into the bones from the inside out.
Chu Lei took out his mobile phone and typed and asked Wang Na: "I'm here, how do I go?"
"When it gets dark, I'll be visible." Wang Na replied.
"Whew"
Chu Lei exhaled. Fortunately, he ate when he came, otherwise it would have been a problem to eat in this place where there is no village in front of him and no store in the back.
"There's still an hour until dark, walk around in both directions."
What else can be around the cemetery?
Those who tie paper, those who sell coffins and urns, those who look at the Yin and Yang House, and those who make posthumous portraits......
The entire street has become a place for funeral services.
On such an occasion, the "Flying Jade Pavilion" is a bit eye-catching.
Chu Lei walked in curiously.
The store not only sells jade, but also "light-opening magic vessels", and even old objects that are difficult to distinguish between real and fake.
Behind the counter sat a young man, bored with a brush.
Seeing that a guest came to the door, the young man only raised his eyelids and didn't even say hello.
"Boss, how do you sell this pendant?" Chu Lei looked left and right, and finally fell in love with a jade pendant carved with a birthday star.
"20,008." The young man raised his head and said lightly.
"Damn, why don't you grab it!?" Chu Lei blurted out.
The young man said lazily, "The price is clearly marked, if you don't buy it, please leave." ”
"Hey! Is there anyone who does this for you? Who is still coming like you! Chu Lei snorted, turned his head and left.
got a bonus of 30,000 yuan, Chu Lei wanted to give himself a little reward and spend dozens of yuan to buy a gadget belt.
Who knows, the other party's mouth is 20,008, which is a black batch.
"However, the pendant is really pleasing to the eye, and when it is close, there is a warm feeling." Chu Lei shook his head regretfully.
Stuff is good, it's just too expensive!
Chu Lei walked out of the Jade Pavilion, and his eyes were quickly attracted by the group.
The leader of this group was a Taoist priest in a Taoist robe, holding a peachwood sword, and wearing a demon bell around his waist.
Behind this Taoist priest, there were two men, three women, and five people.
The group of six did not stop for long, and soon entered the cemetery.
"Anyway, it's okay now, let's go over and have a look."
Chu Lei followed the six people in.
Passing through the rows of tombstones, the six men in front of them stopped in front of one of the tombstones.
Chu Lei couldn't help but show a stunned look, the black-and-white portrait posted on the tombstone was exactly the same as Wang Na's WeChat profile picture!
"This is Wang Na's cemetery? Are these people Wang Na's colleagues? Then why did they ask Taoist priests to do it? ”
Chu Lei stood in the distance and watched.
The Taoist priest pinched his fingers and counted, as if he was measuring the auspicious time of the practice.
Chu Lei typed and asked Wang Na: "Your colleagues invited a Taoist priest to overtake you, do you know what's going on?"
"You go and hold them back." Wang Na replied.
Even if Wang Na didn't say it, Chu Lei also had this intention. He helped Wang Na fulfill his death wish, but he received it with a dark coin. Even if I don't know what the Nether Coin is used for, it's still money that can be spent among ghosts.
As long as it's money, Chu Lei likes it. What's more, it's the money you earn by your own hard work.
"Jingle Bell"
Chu Lei directly dialed Mr. Luo's number.
The sudden ringing of the bell was so abrupt and piercing in the silence of the cemetery. Several of the women even screamed in fright.
"What the hell do you want to do!?" Mr. Luo stepped aside, picked up the phone, and said in a low voice.
Chu Lei could see the uneasiness and nervousness on Mr. Luo's face, and said with a smile: "Turn your head and look to the right."
When Mr. Luo's eyes came over, Chu Lei hung up the phone and waved his hand at Mr. Luo.
Mr. Luo strode over, his eyes full of scrutiny and anger.
"Who the hell are you!?" Mr. Luo said, "Why do you want to harass me again and again!?" ”
Others also came around, staring at Chu Lei with unkind eyes. In other words, whoever is suddenly taken aback will not have a good face for the initiator.
Chu Lei said unhurriedly: "I was entrusted by Wang Na to ask Mr. Luo about something."
"Hiss"
A gasping sound sounded, and someone subconsciously took a step back.
"Don't be alarmist here, Wang Na is already dead, what else to ask!" A man shouted.
Chu Lei pointed at the Taoist priest and said, "Then what is he here for?"
The man who spoke was silent.
Mr. Luo said: "When did Wang Na entrust you?"
"Today. Eight hours ago, to be exact. Chu Lei thought about it and said.
Everyone only felt that their scalps were numb, how could a person who was already dead entrust others to do things? Could it be that there really are ghosts in this world!?
Several women were so frightened that they hugged each other, and the man's face was also very ugly, and he was pale in the blue.
Mr. Luo took a deep breath and asked, "What did Wang Na ask you to ask?"
"The project is done, where did her dividends go?" Chu Lei said.
Mr. Luo: "......"
Others: "......"
Is it money to die?
Mr. Luo rubbed his swollen eyebrows and said, "Wang Na died suddenly, and her project dividends are used to deal with the aftermath." You also know that buying a location here is not cheap. ”
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Chu Lei snapped his fingers and said, "Wang Na, you also heard it, your money is used for future affairs."
In the flat ground, a yin wind howled, and Wang Na's almost transparent body appeared in front of everyone.
"It's Wang Na!"
"Hell!"
"Today is the first seven, the first seven are back to the soul!"
"Sister Na, I am usually very respectful to you, don't hurt me!"
Wang Na, who appeared suddenly, startled her colleagues, and talked nonsense one by one, for fear that Wang Na would find her.
"Demon, look at the sword!" The Taoist dragon walked in a tiger step, holding a sword and splitting it, and on the sword body, there was a faint treasure light circulating, but this light was a little weak.
Wang Na "exhaled" and blew a breath.
The Taoist priest fell to the ground with a "poof", his limbs twitching constantly, as if he had committed a sheep's madness.
Chu Lei: "OMG!"
is dressed as a fairy wind bone, and in the end, he can't bear the breath of the little ghost.
Seeing this scene, the others were even more frightened and begged Wang Na for mercy.
"Now that everything is clear, what else do you want?" Chu Lei said to Wang Na.
"I work hard to die, not to be decent after death! I don't accept this answer! Wang Na's resentment floated around her, and the ghost body actually had a feeling of gradually condensing.
Mr. Luo hurriedly said: "Wang Na, you have something to say." Don't you just want money? I'll give! ”
"I'm dead, what's the use of asking for your money!?" Wang Na's eyes were cold, and the momentum on her body was rising.
