After a long time, Ah Fu had long been numb to the corpses, and in his opinion, these corpses were no different from falling asleep. If you encounter the kind of corpse that is already rotten, you have to wear a mask and try not to look at it. Have the police or family members put the body on their backs. Gritted his teeth and walked down the stairs, thinking that it would be over as soon as he walked out of the door. People don't pick a time when they die, and many people call Ah Fu in the middle of the night or early in the morning, and he has to get up and get ready to set off at any time. In order not to make his employer wait, he often sleeps without taking off his coat.

And so, for about two years. Ah Fu earned a lot of money for the family, half of which was used to treat his father's lung disease, and the other half of his mother helped him save up, preparing to marry a deaf and mute woman from a neighboring village as a wife.

About two months ago in the middle of the night, he received a call from the security guard of a building property, saying that there was a woman who had died of a drug overdose and asked him to come as soon as possible. Ah Fu set off immediately, and the woman had just lost her breath and was foaming at the mouth. Naked, wearing nothing, the family only has a middle-aged mother. The mother didn't seem to be very sad, and asked Ah Fu to carry the person off quickly, and she had to negotiate the freight with the car from the hospital. Ah Fu pointed to the woman's naked body, meaning whether to put on some clothes, the mother impatiently waved her hand to ask Ah Fu not to talk nonsense, Ah Fu had to carry the woman down the stairs, put it in the car of the hospital outside, collect the money and leave.

It stands to reason that this process was all too familiar to Ah Fu, and he quickly forgot about it. A few days later, in the middle of the night, he received a phone call from a young woman, telling him to come quickly. And said an address in room XXX in the XX building.

Ah Fu was very happy, he didn't expect to have work again so soon, so he immediately went out to call a taxi, showed the address to the driver, and asked him to drive quickly. Ah Fu is usually confused. It wasn't until he arrived at this XX building that he recognized, isn't this the building where he came to carry the woman who died of drug addiction a few days ago? I thought it was a coincidence that someone in the same building had died. When he arrived at the door of the XXX room, Ah Fu felt that it seemed to be the same room where the drug-addicted woman died last time. Besiege the commander with blood.

knocked on the door for a long time, and sure enough, it was the middle-aged mother who opened it and asked what was the matter. Ah Fu had no choice but to take out a pen and write in his notebook that someone had called him to come to this address just now, and the middle-aged mother also recognized Ah Fu as the person who carried her daughter's body downstairs a few days ago. Tell him you're mistaken, didn't you come to memorize it the other day.

Ah Fu returned home depressed, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't understand, how could he admit his mistake, he thought that he must be too nervous, and he didn't receive any phone calls at all in the middle of the night, just dreaming.

A few days later, in the middle of the night, Ah Fu received a call again, and it was still the woman's voice, saying that he wanted him to come to room XXX in XX Building soon. When Ah Fu saw that it was still this address, he thought that someone was playing a prank, so he hung up. But the call came in again. This time, Ah Fu had a lot of thoughts, and turned on the phone recording to record the other party's words. The woman still said on the phone that she wanted him to come to room XXX in the XX building, and Ah Fu asked if someone had died, and the woman didn't answer directly, just said you come quickly.

Ah Fu came to the room of the building again at night, and the middle-aged mother was very angry when she saw that it was him again. Ah Fu played the phone recording to her, and the middle-aged mother was suddenly stupid, saying that it was the voice of her daughter who died of drug addiction. Looking at the caller number on Ah Fu's mobile phone, it was also used by her daughter, but it was already down. Ah Fu didn't believe it, and called him on the spot with his mobile phone, and sure enough, it was in a state of shutdown.

The middle-aged mother said that it might be that her daughter was unwilling to die, and in a few days she would do a ritual for her daughter, and then let Ah Fu come to dispel the evil spirit. Three days later, the middle-aged mother gave her daughter a small ritual at a Taoist temple in Hong Kong, and Ah Fu also knelt down.

After doing the rituals, it was fine for more than ten days, Ah Fu felt that the drug-addicted woman had been exceeded, but he didn't expect that in the middle of the night, his mobile phone rang again, and the number was still the one that had been shut down, and the woman was still her. On the phone, he asked him to go to the XXX room of the XX Building, and Ah Fu was so frightened that he asked what the hell was going on, did you deliberately fix me. The woman said someone needs help, and you know when you come.

Where did Ah Fu dare to go, he only went to that place the next day and told his middle-aged mother about it. She was also so scared that she simply ignored Ah Fu and closed the door without knocking.

finally read this, and Mei Ying was so tired that her mouth was dry, so I asked her to rest and drink tea first, and then asked Ah Fu: "You mean, I have recently hit an evil spirit, and the corpse that was carried downstairs by you called you several times before?" ”

Ah Fu nodded repeatedly, said a vague "yes, yes", and then pointed to the words "ward off evil spirits and dispel evil" written on the wall of the store. I understood that he wanted to ask if there was anything to ward off evil spirits, but out of professional sensitivity, I asked Ah Fu if he had encountered any other supernatural things before in the past two years when he had been engaged in the profession of corpse bearer, except for the recent call from a drug-addicted woman.

After listening to my question, Ah Fu wrote in the notebook with a pen again. I asked him not to write slang and try to use standard Chinese characters, and Ah Fu nodded repeatedly. Looking at the way he struggled to write, he couldn't help but be glad that he was a sound person, otherwise it would be so painful to be unable to speak like Ah Fu. He wrote for several minutes before handing it to me, to the effect that sometimes a few days after carrying the corpse, he would dream at night that the corpse was talking to him in a dream, and it was something that he didn't understand, but it was not important, and it was probably something that the deceased wanted to say but didn't say.

At first, Ah Fu would be scared and insomnia, and every time he carried the corpse, he would go to the temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha, but after a year, he gradually became bolder, and he took the appearance of the deceased in his dreams as a matter of course and no longer paid attention to it. But since carrying the body of the drug-addicted woman, sometimes Ah Fu goes to carry other corpses, and often feels flustered in the corridor, subconsciously looks sideways, and finds that the corpse he is carrying has turned into the drug-addicted woman again.

This happened twice, the first time Ah Fu was so frightened that he threw the body directly and rolled down the stairs, and the family members who followed him were very angry, not only did not give him money, but also punched him several times.

After learning about Ah Fu, I thought to myself how much resentment this drug addict was, so instead of being entangled in Ah Fu, I asked him as usual what price he could accept to ward off evil spirits. Ah Fu wrote: "I don't understand, a few thousand yuan." ”

I walked around the shop a few times, showed him a few things, and told him what it was, how it was made, and what it worked for. Ah Fu scratched his head while watching, looking dazed. I asked, "Which do you think is the right fit?" ”

Ah Fu didn't answer directly, but turned his hand behind his back and pointed to his back. He crossed his hands, lifted the hem of his long-sleeved shirt, pulled it up to his neck, exposed his entire back, and turned to face me. I saw that his bare back muscles were very strong, but there was nothing, and I didn't understand what he was telling me to see. Ah Fu pointed to a certain place on his back again, and I looked at that place carefully, but I still didn't find anything. I beckoned Mei Ying to come over and help me see it, and she waved her hand again and again, obviously disgusted and scared. Also, a person's back always carries a dead person, who doesn't dislike it.

Ah Fu pointed to a certain place on his back, and then wrote in a notebook with a pen and handed it to me. To the effect that at night he often dreamed that the woman who had died of drug addiction scolded him and pinched him, and when he ran, the woman caught up and bit his back with her teeth. It hurts so much that I can't find anything when I go to the hospital.

Seeing these words, I asked Ah Fu to move to a backlit place to look closely at different angles, and I really saw that there was a shallow tooth mark, but it was very shallow, like a watermark added to a computer picture.

I said, "It looks like there's a tooth mark." Ah Fu nodded again and again, and wrote to me that this tooth mark is sometimes deep and sometimes shallow, and it will deepen every time after carrying the corpse, just like being bitten down by someone forcefully, it is particularly painful. I asked, "How did the woman who died of drugs scold you in her dream?" ”

Ah Fu wrote in his notebook: "Ask me why I didn't save her and why I hurt her." "I asked if you had ever hurt her, and Ah Fu waved his hand repeatedly. Looking at the tooth marks on his back, I thought to myself that it should be a position where people can be bitten by carrying people behind, but dead people don't bite, why did this woman who died of drug addiction get entangled with Ah Fu, just because he carried himself down?
