Chapter 41: Granny Meng

"Ring, ring, ring, ......" Li Bai's phone rang, but Li Bai on the bed turned over, ignored it, pulled up the quilt and covered his head and continued to sleep.

Lei Baoquan, who was in the next bed, opened his eyes and looked, and at this time it was also bright, and he shouted to Li Bai: "Call, answer it quickly, it's so noisy that people can't sleep." ”

Li Bai was too sleepy, and he still fell asleep by himself. Fortunately, I held on to the other end of the phone for a while and hung up. Lei Baoquan yawned and prepared to continue sleeping. As soon as I turned over, my phone rang again.

Lei Baoquan sighed, picked up the phone, and it was Jin Guo: "Uncle Lei, what's going on?" Why didn't anyone answer my phone call? What is Xiaobai doing? ”

"You're all asleep, what's wrong with it so early?" Lei Baoquan yawned again.

"Uncle Lei, it's past nine o'clock, and it's still early...... I came early in the morning, and I don't know which room you are in. Jin Guo rushed from his home to Yungang City early in the morning, and he was excited to be exposed to this strange thing again.

"Then you can come up directly and ask the front desk, they all know us." Lei Baoquan said a few words, hung up the phone and continued to catch up on sleep.

Within five minutes, the doorbell rang, Lei Baoquan had just fallen asleep, was woken up again, turned over and got out of bed and opened the door. Jin Guo walked in and said, "Life is good, what time is it and you still sleep?" ”

Lei Baoquan lay back on the bed and asked, "Why did you arrive so early, I thought I would come in the afternoon." ”

"You have to do everything sooner rather than later, aren't you in a hurry? By the way, what happened to the man who borrowed the corpse to resurrect his soul? As soon as Jin Guo entered the house, he couldn't wait to ask.

Seeing that he couldn't sleep this time, Lei Baoquan simply got up and put on his clothes. Bian said: "Now she is temporarily living in the hotel, because her body is an employee of this hotel." ”

"Oh, that's right. Then you have to take care of it. I asked Uncle Li before, and he asked us to go back to the same street to find an old woman, who was his distant cousin, and she was also in trouble. So, I thought I'd come early and let's go together. Jin Guo picked up a bottle of mineral water on the table and drank it, getting up early this morning. I didn't even have time to eat.

Lei Baoquan got dressed, looked at Li Bai, who was still covered with a quilt, and kicked hard with his unshoed foot. Say, "Get up!" Every day, I either eat or sleep, or I go out shopping with the girl. ”

"Yo, go shopping with the girl?" Jin Guo wondered.

"But it's not, I'll tell you it...... just these two days" Lei Baoquan was just about to talk about Li Bai's behavior in the past two days. Li Bai, who was still lying behind him, suddenly jumped up. hugged Lei Baoquan and didn't let him continue. The two fought for a while, and then it was over.

The three of them packed up, ate some things hastily, and came to Huitong Street according to the address given by Uncle Li, this street is the famous "Shenzhu Street", and there are many shops such as "fortune telling" and "antiques" on both sides of the street, one next to the other. And whenever it comes to religious activities such as temple fairs. It's even more crowded with people.

The three of them walked down the street, and most of them were elderly people going back and forth. Most of them are holding incense sticks they just bought, small Buddha statues and the like "please". The smell of fragrant ash fills the street.

"Uncle Li's cousin can't be a fortune teller, right?" Li Bai looked at the storefronts on the street and asked.

"Maybe, both of them will do this, but Uncle Li doesn't rely on this for a living." Lei Baoquan said.

"Who said that? When Uncle Li was young, he didn't do a lot of door-to-door work, didn't he say the same himself? Li Bai asked rhetorically.

Jin Guo waved his hand beside him and said: "As far as I know, Uncle Li is not the kind of person who does things when he gives money, he also depends on chance, if that family he feels fate, or can save Yin virtue, he will go to help." When I was a child, I saw a very rich boss who paid a lot of money for Uncle Li to help him find a feng shui treasure for his father to be buried, mainly to benefit future generations. But Uncle Li refused, saying that his family's money was not clean, and it would be finished sooner or later. ”

"Wow! Uncle Li is still such a direct person? And then? Li Bai was surprised.

"Later, I remember that Uncle Li asked the man to beat him because of this, but in the end he still didn't do it, and I heard that the man was later imprisoned." Jin Guo said.

"You see, bad guys will be rewarded at all times." Lei Baoquan shook his head and said.

The three of them searched for a while, but they didn't find "No. 230 Huitong Street", only No. 229 and No. 231, and there was no No. 230 in the middle. The three of them were wondering, and an old man waiting for the bus on the side of the road saw them wandering back and forth for a long time, so he took the initiative to ask, "What are you looking for?" ”

"Uncle, let me ask you, where is No. 230 Huitong Street? Why didn't you have this number for a long time? Jin Guo asked.

The old man listened to the address, squinted his eyes and looked at the three people, and said, "You're here to do something with Mrs. Meng, right?" ”

"Who?" The three of them didn't react for a while.

"Aren't you looking for number 230? Isn't that the old Meng Pozi's house? I'll tell you, just enter through the small door between No. 229 and No. 231, and go all the way to the end, their house is in the innermost, and you can't find it just by looking at the door number. The old man gave him enthusiastic guidance.

According to the old man's instructions, the three of them found the small door in the middle, as soon as they entered the door, it was a narrow alley, and after walking through the alley and making two turns, they saw another door, and the sign on the door said "No. 230 Huitong Street".

"Who would have thought that this number could be at the innermost." Li Bai complained.

The three men came to the door and knocked softly, but no one answered for a long time.

"Could it be that you are not at home?" Li Bai said.

Jin Guo knocked a little harder, only to hear the door in the courtyard ring. Then the door in front of them opened, and an old lady who looked very old appeared in front of the three of them.

"Who are you looking for?" Although she looked very old, the old lady's voice was very bright, not at all like an old man.

"Are you the master?" Jin Guo asked.

"yes."

"Then you must be Granny Meng, right?" Jin Guo asked again.

"Who are you?" Granny Meng was a little strange.

"Uncle Li asked us to come to you for help." Jin Guo replied.

"Oh, it's you, I know, my cousin told me. Let's talk about it first. Granny Meng smiled and let the three of them into the house.

The three of them walked into Granny Meng's house, although the furnishings in the house were not luxurious, but they were also quite exquisite.

Granny Meng invited the three of them to sit down, and one of them poured a cup of tea, saying, "I haven't helped anyone for a long time, and now I'm old and my legs are not good, so my son won't let me continue to do this." ”

"Are you alone?" Li Bai asked.

"My wife passed away two years ago, and I have a son and a daughter, both of whom are out of town, and although I often come back, I usually live alone." Granny Meng said with a smile. (To be continued......)
