Chapter 14: There is Death and No Life

Three days passed in a flash.

Bai Changsheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at the black and shiny coffin in front of him with a sense of accomplishment, why?

Although the reputation of the "coffin shop craftsman" is not very good, every time a new coffin is made, it looks at the majesty of Shoucai, and the lacquer surface is smooth and traceless, so I feel that it is a "work of art" of my own.

In just three days, such a thick mouthful of longevity materials has been completed, if the sworn enemies of Bei'anmen see it, they will definitely be envious.

It's a pity that this business can't be swaggered anywhere, and no matter how good it is, it's in vain.

sighed, thought about his future plans, maybe he would be like his old father in this life, and he would have to rely on this craft to live.

It's not that I haven't tried it before, after all, Bai Changsheng has a carpenter's craft, and he has the trick of calculating accounts.

But when used in other professions, it always hits a wall:

When Bai Sanshi had just died, Bai Changsheng went to work as a carpenter in the compound.

As a result, I was almost not typed:

Because I always felt that something was missing, I carved the word "Shou" on the wall of others, and made the curtain of the courtyard like a tombstone, and this thing was naturally yellow.

Later, I thought about settling accounts without doing my craft, and went to the pawnshop.

As a result, every time a guest came to the door, Bai Changsheng always said a word of condolences to people out of professional habits, and swept the floor before leaving.

The pawnshop sweeping is different from the coffin shop, it means sweeping the floor and going out, which is too unlucky, and he was dismissed after a few days.

In desperation, he started his old business, and it was better to do the dead man's business, and Bai Changsheng accepted his fate.

While thinking about what happened to him, Bai Changsheng sighed at the bizarre encounters in the past few days.

At night, I can hear the three watches in the middle of the night above the city tower, when the moon is bright and sparsely populated.

Bai Changsheng pinched his fingers and calculated, within three days, this Wenyan should also arrive.

Just thinking about it, I saw a person sneaking out of the alley not far away, it was Wen Yan.

While looking left and right, he tiptoed to the coffin shop quickly.

In the end, the thief is cowardly, should he tell the government to investigate?

Bai Changsheng was still hesitating, and Wen Yan had already arrived.

Seeing that Bai Changsheng was waiting for him, Wen Yan didn't say much, and always had some questions about Bai Changsheng to be solved.

"Is it done?"

Bai Changsheng nodded, turned around and went back to the coffin shop, waiting for Wen Yan to come in according to the rules.

As soon as Wen Yan came in, he saw the right room of the coffin shop, and the brand-new longevity material was standing in the hall.

However, Bai Changsheng was a little puzzled, why didn't anyone come to collect it, could it be that Wen Yan wanted to carry it back alone? This coffin is hundreds of pounds, how can a weak scholar move it?

"You came here at night, and you didn't bring a start, how can you move this longevity back."

Wen Yan seems to have planned for a long time:

"I know, this is not in a hurry, I have made an appointment with a few people, wait here first, and give you the money."

And with that, he took out a piece of silver from his loins.

This is a large amount, Bai Changsheng has a secret expression of joy, and said in his heart that if this is a lawsuit, where will such a windfall come from?

I was very happy, so I reached out to pick it up, but just about to touch it, the silver was pressed by Wen Yan and pressed in my hand.

"Brother Wen, what does this mean? Is there something wrong with it? Or is it a delay? ”

Bai Changsheng looked a little displeased:

Why did this person go back on his word, and he didn't want to take out all the money?

I only heard Wen Yan's cautious expression, and said to Bai Changsheng with a depressed face:

"I'm going to ask you, there are some things that aren't very clear."

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Do you know me?"

"Brother Wenyan said that he laughed, you told me what my surname was that day, how could you not know?"

"Then do you know my brother Wenwu!"

At this sentence, Wen Yan's tone was raised a little, and a wisp of murder in his eyes was fleeting.

Bai Changsheng saw it in his eyes, and said in his heart that he knew that you would ask this, it seems that this matter cannot be hidden, so he will inform the government after taking the money.

Shaking his head again and again, Bai Changsheng said that he didn't know.

Seeing that Wen Yan has the intention to do evil now, I am afraid that if I am not careful, I am afraid that a big disaster will come.

When Wen Yan heard this, he raised his voice, and his heart lowered again:

"Still lying, that day I betrayed you as soon as I wrote your name, and said that I didn't know you, so I recruited you from the truth."

Bai Changsheng just didn't admit that Wenwu had come, and Wen Yan Silin said after a while:

"My brother robbed my wife and robbed other people's money, and now I don't know whether he is dead or alive, this coffin is actually for him.

Such a serious crime, if he is caught, he will definitely die or live, I now want to know all the news about him, and I hope that my brother will tell me. ”

After Wen Yan finished speaking, he lifted his robe, knelt down on one knee, and clasped his hands into fists, which was a big gift.

Bai Changsheng saw it in his eyes, and his heart was full of thoughts: looking at this person's appearance, it didn't look like a lie.

robbing people's wives and daughters and robbing people's money, and that civil and military force is not dead? It's okay if you're not dead, it's a human life.

However, there was still some uncertainty, and Bai Changsheng asked:

"Wenwu is not dead, killing people and plundering money, this coffin is prepared for him?"

"The government has issued a notice, and if you are caught, you will be beheaded, and you will prepare it first to save people from dying without a coffin in the future." , Wen Yan explained again.

Bai Changsheng also believed it a little, looking at Wen Yan's expression was very honest, the ingot silver was very lovely by candlelight, Bai Changsheng still had greed.

This gritted his teeth and told Wenwu about the situation when he met Wenwu that day.

Wen Yan had been kneeling on the ground, and when he heard Bai Changsheng say what happened that day in Wenwu, he fell to the ground in shock, and looked at Bai Changsheng in disbelief:

"He... He had already prepared a coffin? This... This coffin was half done, and it was originally prepared for me... I said how could it be done so quickly in three days. ”

He sighed and turned out, not forgetting to pick up the silver and carry it in his arms.

Wen Yan sat for a while, sat up tremblingly from the ground, walked directly to the coffin, hugged the coffin, and cried loudly:

"Why do you want to do this, why did you know this in the first place, if you hadn't been interested in getting rich at the beginning, would you have died at my hands later? You also ordered this coffin for me in advance, brother, why are you so ruthless! ”

Alas, there are evils in the world, Bai Changsheng sighed.

It's also a little unbearable that this Wenyan is so grief-stricken, if this Wenwu doesn't...

Wen YanΒ·Β·Β· Wen Yan killed Wen Wu?

Bai Changsheng patronized and sighed just now, but didn't listen carefully.

At this time, after pondering again, I suddenly felt bad:

It turned out to be Wen Yan who killed Wen Wu!

And such a murderous sin was actually said in front of himself!

Can this be good on its own?

After waking up, he turned around suddenly, and suddenly saw that Wen Yan had already stood up, right behind him!

He no longer wailed and screamed, but only saw tears hanging on both sides, and his expression was bitter.

The eyes are scarlet and hideous, and there is no longer the color of humanity. In the trembling hand, I don't know when, there is an extra sharp knife!

"Don't blame me, I didn't mean to, my brother is dead, there has to be a funeral companion, you can go on the road to the shopkeeper!"

Wen Yan howled, desperate, and slashed at Bai Changsheng with that sharp knife!

"Ah!!h
