Chapter 22: Yin and Yang Money

When I heard their talk, I held my breath in my heart, and I didn't want them to slander Jiang Li behind my back, so I simply stepped forward and shouted, "Uncle and aunt!" ”。

My sudden voice made them all embarrassed, looked at each other, shut up about the topic, greeted me with a smile, and asked me what I was doing.

I replied briefly and simply, "Master asked me to buy yellow table paper." ”

On the way to the mourning hall, I was silent, and they saw it and stopped talking.

Back in the mourning hall, they went directly to my father and grandmother, I carried the yellow table paper to Jiang Li's side, handed over the things to him, Jiang Li took the yellow table paper and glanced at me: "What's wrong?" Eating bitter gourd? ”

I thought about it for a while, but I didn't tell Jiang Li about these things.

The few neighbors who came with me before had already come to my grandmother and talked to my grandmother at this time, maybe they didn't notice that Jiang Li and I were here, their voices could be heard intermittently, and Jiang Li and I stood by and watched over there.

Those aunts were chewing the root of their tongues with their grandmothers, "His grandmother, isn't this Master Jiang Li so capable?" Why did you come and all the people in your family died one after another, you have a good heart! ”

Another aunt also chimed in, "That's right, who knows what that person is thinking!" After all, it is an outsider, and he will definitely not help us sincerely, so don't hurt Chen Xiao at that time. ”

Grandma didn't say a word there, but her face had changed, I know grandma, she is a very xenophobic person, although Jiang Li has done so much for our family, but in her eyes, Jiang Li's words are always inferior to the words of these three aunts and six mothers-in-law.

I thought Jiang Li would be angry when he heard these words, but Jiang Li smiled, stretched out his hand and touched my head: "Fang is the way of life, circle is the foundation of life, and Fang Yuan can be a man for a long time." A fool does not get rid of things, a wise man does not get rid of things≑ and if he cultivates himself well enough, he will not be affected by the words of others, so it is good not to look at it and not to think about it. ”

I said yes, but I was still a little unhappy in my heart.

Jiang Li said again: "I'm a little tired, you can accompany me back, I have something to tell you." ”

I've never heard Jiang Li say that he is tired before, I thought he didn't know how to be tired, so I was a little surprised to hear him say this, but then I thought about it, he was so dedicated, but he still had to be pointed at behind his back, and other people would be exhausted, it was normal for him to be tired.

Jiang Li and I left the mourning hall and went home, and after returning home, Jiang Li did not rest, but took out an iron round seal from the bag he was carrying, and used this round seal to beat it on the yellow table paper I bought.

When I tapped it, a copper coin-like mark would be left on the yellow watch paper, and I looked at him strangely and asked him, "Master, what is this?" ”

Jiang Li said: "This is called the money seal, the yellow table paper you usually buy and the yin and yang money printed on the outside cannot be used at all below, only the yellow table paper printed with money can really circulate below." ”

In the past, during the New Year's holidays, my grandfather would often burn paper money for the dead ancestors, but most of them were those yin and yang money with smaller denominations printed outside, I asked my grandfather, why not buy a larger denomination, and my grandfather said that the denomination was too large and could not be found below. Every time he burned paper, Grandpa would burn an extra stack, saying that he was bribing the people below and letting the people below send the yin and yang money to the ancestors.

Jiang Li was fiddling with the yellow table paper until the early hours of the morning, Jiang Li looked at me yawning, put the printed yellow table paper together and handed it to me and said, "You go to your grandfather's mourning hall at one o'clock in the morning tonight and bring all this yin and yang money over." ”

I nodded, "Do you want to burn these yin and yang money to grandpa?" ”

Jiang Li shook his head and said, "This yin and yang money is not used for you to burn, your grandfather's soul has been hidden by others, if the person who hooks the soul in the underworld can't find his soul, he will definitely go to the mourning hall tonight to make trouble, there are some things I am not suitable to show up, you can deal with this matter." ”

I blinked, thinking that Jiang Li had said something wrong, let me deal with such a big matter? With a bitter face, he said, "Master, I can't do it......"

Jiang Li saw that my face was full of unconfidence, so he told me in detail, "The people in the underworld are also human beings, they also have seven emotions and six desires, it would be good for you to treat them as ordinary people like us, if the people below make trouble today, you can use these yin and yang money to buy them, I will teach you a few more words, and I will see that they can be used in a while." ”

Jiang Li then said a few words to me about what he would say when he saw those people in the underworld, and then patted me on the shoulder and asked me to go to the mourning hall.

This is the first time Jiang Li has handed over things to me to do alone, although my heart is weak, but I feel that it is a particularly proud thing, I estimated that the time was almost up, and hurriedly ran to the Grandpa Grandpa's Spiritual Hall with a bag of yin and yang money to guard.

There are not many people in the mourning hall anymore, and those who can generally keep vigil until this point are some relatives who are usually closer.

Before, the mourning hall was quite lively, but now it is basically quiet, I trotted all the way to the mourning hall, stood at the door of the mourning hall and looked inside, sure enough, in front of my grandfather's coffin, I saw two tall black robed people, at least one meter eight, the black robe covered them tightly, only a cold face came out, and they carried a swarthy iron chain on their shoulders.

The second grandfather, father, grandmother, and some other neighbors all stood on both sides and stared at the two in horror.

I was stunned when I saw the faces of both of them, not because they were messengers of the underworld, but because I had seen both of them two years ago.

There used to be a story of the soul messenger in the village, before the village had stomach cancer, it was time to die, everyone in the village went to the old man's house to see the old man for the last time, we stayed in front of the old man's bed until midnight, I was so panicked that I didn't dare to go out to pee, so I asked my grandfather to accompany me with a flashlight.

The countryside is not so particular, when I stood under the eaves to pee, I saw two black shadows next to the old man's cattle pen, and quickly pointed to my grandfather, who flashed a flashlight, and the two people looked at me, and I also remembered their appearance, that is, these two people in the mourning hall, dressed exactly the same as two years ago.

But when they saw me and left, when I went back to the house with my grandfather, the old man on the bed shouted, 'Mora, I'm not leaving,' and then he died.

This is the first time I've seen it with my own eyes, and I've heard more about the spirits of the messengers of the underworld.

I recognized both of them, the second grandfather and the villagers, they naturally knew what these two people were, where would the living dare to fight with the people of the underworld, in case they angered them and hooked their souls, it was not cost-effective.

Without waiting for me to think about it, one of the two people opened his mouth: "Chen Jiaxing eats his brother's oil, the crime is extremely evil, and Lord Chenghuang asked us to take him down by name." However, the two of us searched around here and didn't find Chen Jiaxing's soul, it could only be that you hid it for him, and people and ghosts went their own way, so I advise you to hand over his soul as soon as possible. ”

When they spoke, their eyes kept on the second grandfather, and it was obvious that they thought that the second grandfather had hidden the soul of the second grandfather.

Where have the nearby villagers encountered this kind of thing, they had only heard about the Soul Hooker before, but now that they had seen it with their own eyes, they didn't even dare to say anything.

The second grandfather replied boldly: "I don't know where my brother's soul went, I know that you two are here to hook the soul, can you let us send my brother up the mountain first......"

"Nope." Before the second grandfather finished speaking, they flatly refused, "Since you know what we do, don't hide it, I know that the three brothers of your Chen family all have some ability, and only you can do it if you have the soul of the Tibetan people, and give you a few seconds to think about it, if not, just hook all the people of your Chen family, don't think that we don't know what the people of your Chen family have done, if it wasn't for someone to protect us, we would have taken you down a long time ago." ”

The second grandfather glanced at his father and grandmother, and his face was very embarrassed.

In my mother's case, my father and grandmother did as much as they were dishonorable, and if the people in the underworld really wanted to talk about this matter, it was not certain whether my father and grandmother could keep it.

Seeing that the two men were about to take the chains from their bodies, I took a few deep breaths and walked in boldly.

As soon as I entered, the second grandfather yelled at me: "Holy shit, what are you doing when you come in?" Hurry up and go back to the house and go to sleep. ”

The second grandfather yelled at me to go, because he was afraid that these two people in the underworld would target me.

I didn't dare to look at those two people, so I just did what Jiang Li said, walked to my grandfather's coffin, grabbed a handful of incense, lit it all, and inserted it in the incense altar.

Suddenly the room was filled with smoke, and I looked at the two men again, and they really showed a look of satisfaction in the smoke, and some greedily inhaled the smoke.

Jiang Li told me that when people eat, ghosts smell incense. The Soul Envoy is no exception, they also have to rely on smelling incense to replenish their energy, but the underworld is quite harsh on the Soul Envoy, and it is difficult for them to get enough incense and candles, so at this time, if there are enough incense candles for them, maybe they can calm down temporarily, so as not to turn their faces so quickly.
