Chapter 8: Coffin Tombstones
When I saw this person again, I didn't even think about pushing the door and walked in: "Hey, buddy! You ......"
I didn't finish my words, and I was stunned: What about people?! Am I dazzled? What the hell is going on tonight?!
The utility room is only four or five square meters, and there is no one at this time, and some sundries are piled up on the ground, and it seems that no one has sorted it out for a long time.
However, I saw a person here just now! I rubbed my eyes vigorously, thinking to myself if I was probably too tired recently to cause this situation, or if Han Yushan's body farewell would be more important.
I turned around to leave, but I didn't expect this turn, and I was instantly scared half to death: I don't know who it was, but I actually put a big red paper figure behind the door, and I couldn't see it when I came in. At this moment, the red paper man's eyes were facing me, less than two feet away.
Damn it! I cursed and walked away.
The funeral parlor of the central hospital, in a small alley outside the hospital.
When I entered the deserted funeral home, I saw the dozen or so students mentioned by the nurse, but I still didn't see the seventh master, nor did I see the figure of the person who tied the red paper man. The ceremony had already begun, and I was too embarrassed to leave, so I attended the farewell ceremony of the body, hurriedly walked out, and called the seventh master - the seventh master's phone has not been used much, and I don't understand why a man in his forties does not like to use a mobile phone.
This time it's still the case, the phone is connected, no one answers, I don't know if I forgot it in the hotel.
I just started to be anxious at this time, it's almost five o'clock in the morning, and the sky is about to dawn, where can the seventh master go?!
Just when I was in a hurry, the seventh master's phone came back: "Hey, Xiao Gu, have you finished the ceremony?" ”
I nodded, "How did you know I would stay here for the ceremony?" ”
"Haha, I saw that you slept soundly, and I knew that you young people were sleepy, so I didn't call you. I'm on this side of the moat, come here. ”
Moat? I hung up my phone with a wry smile, it seems that the seventh master went to the moat to find the traces of Han Yushan.
In my memory, the moat in Huimin County was a pool of stagnant water, and when I saw it again a few years later, I was shocked: the original rectangular moat was opened up and built into a moat park, and it seemed to lead to a small river, which became living water.
The Seventh Master stood on the embankment of a section of the moat, and when he saw me coming, he stretched out his hand and pointed to his feet and said, "Xiao Gu, look at this section of the river, what does it look like?" ”
Like what? At first glance, I saw that this moat was flowing in a straight line due north and south, and there was a stone bridge in the middle, but I really didn't see what it looked like.
The Seventh Master stretched out his hand and pointed to a tall building at the head of the river: "Plus it, what do you look like?" ”
I was stunned: "Coffin? Tombstone? ”
"yes!" The seventh master smiled: "I really want to see, which master gave such a construction plan, I just asked passers-by, only to know that since the river was built, six or seven children have died, I really don't know what to think." ”
I shrugged, not knowing what to say.
"Okay, there's nothing to do, let's go back to the hotel and sleep, and go back to Jinan at noon."
I told the Seventh Master about the Red Paper Man, but the Seventh Master didn't say much, just reminded me that Han Yushan has nothing to do with us, at least so far. Another doubt in my heart is that Shi Xun, this thing has no evil spirit now, why doesn't the seventh master want to take it away? With his ability, it should be effortless to take this thing in this small county town, is it just because he is not interested?
After having lunch with Chu Ying at noon, we set off for Jinan. When I returned to Gu Ji Antique Shop, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and the second uncle was sitting at the counter taking a nap, so I didn't disturb him, went out to buy some cooked food, and came back to call him for dinner.
"Going out tomorrow? Where to? "I told my second uncle about the past few days, and then said that I was going to carry out a second operation tomorrow.
"I don't know, I heard the Seventh Master say, what kind of forgetful cliff beach are you going!" As I spoke, I looked at the second uncle's expression, wanting to see if he knew about this place.
"Forgetful Cliffs?" The second uncle took a piece of pig's head meat and threw it into his mouth: "Is there really such a place?" Was it that Liang Dong who found it? ”
I smiled and asked the second uncle: "Second uncle, after so many days, you haven't found out any information about this Liang Dong?!" ”
The second uncle glared at me: "What? Still want to tease your second uncle? I have to investigate people like Liangdong secretly, and I can't let many people know, it's difficult! It's true that nothing was found out, this guy is very careful, looking for such a big thing as Hanjia, and he didn't even come forward, otherwise with a photo of him, I would be able to find out along the vine. ”
I shrugged, "Come on, don't make excuses for yourself." By the way, second uncle, look at this thing. ”
As I spoke, I put down my chopsticks and took out the dragon carved jade plaque from my waist and handed it to my second uncle. This thing, the cloth bag monk never mentioned it again, I think it's better to show the second uncle first.
The second uncle took it and looked at it carefully: "This piece of jade, it's very curious!" I've never seen jade with this texture and texture, but judging from the fan-shaped shape, it's only a quarter of this jade plaque. Where did you get that from? ”
"In the mausoleum of Afang." I said, "I got it in one of the altars inside." ”
"At least, this is not something from the Han Dynasty, it should be the carving process after the Sui Dynasty." The second uncle checked: "Long carving, it shouldn't be a simple character. But it's not breathing, and it's not a masterpiece. ”
I casually asked, "If you sell it, how much can you sell it for?" ”
The second uncle shook his head: "I don't know, because I can't tell what kind of jade it is, I can't estimate it." Judging from the quality of this jade alone, it is really excellent, and if you give the lowest price, it should be about 200,000. ”
After speaking, the second uncle returned the dragon carved jade plaque to me: "Drink this glass of wine and go to sleep, I don't know what time I will leave tomorrow." ”
I nodded, hesitated and asked, "Second uncle, why are you, why don't you give me some advice or something......"
The second uncle was stunned: "Ha, you're talking about the search for Hanjia this time, right?" First, you have grown up, and I will not influence your life path and choices; Second, everything in the world should go with the flow, no one can change history and the future, and development is also regular, so as long as you like it, do it. ”
I smiled wryly - adults always talk about these great things. In fact, what I want to know most from my second uncle is my father's business. I don't believe that the second uncle is not clear about my father's death, but every time I ask a question, he will always avoid the important and trivial.
Sometimes I even think that if the second uncle had told my father about it, I wouldn't have participated in the search for Hanjia - the operation itself was too dangerous, wouldn't the second uncle not be afraid of the death of me, a person who doesn't know kung fu?
At nine o'clock in the evening, I returned to my house and saw the huge doll that Bugs Bunny left for me by Su Xiao, and I couldn't help but smile: Su Xiao is a rabbit, whether it is alive or a puppet, as long as it is a rabbit, it will continue to pick up at home, known as the "rabbit nest".
I took a shower and fell asleep with Bugs Bunny in my arms.
