Chapter 163: The Corpse Chaser
Lu Chusheng? Who the hell is this person? With questions, I followed Yuxuan to this broken noodle shop, and when I walked inside, a familiar face appeared in front of my eyes, a white-haired old man was wearing a scarf, and when he saw a guest coming in, he was pleasantly surprised: "Finally there is business!" ”
But when he saw my appearance, he was immediately surprised and couldn't close his mouth, this Ou Jisang is not anyone, it is the master I saw in Tangfu Village earlier, of course, he doesn't have the possession of that Yin Cao Guan now, just an ordinary old man, the eyes of cataracts don't know if it's true, don't tell me it's contact lenses again, I feel quite surprised to see him here, he sees me like this, "Aren't you Fusheng?" Eldest grandson, I don't think I'll be able to meet you here? You probably don't know how I came to Hunan to open a noodle restaurant, right? ”
"Yes, master, why are you here?"
"Hehe, isn't it to make ends meet? You know that the master has never married a wife in his life, and his life is relatively difficult, since the fields and livestock in the village have died, I have no choice but to come here to earn a living! ”
"Oh, does my father know about it?"
"He doesn't know, but don't tell him, lest he worry about me again, haha, since you came to my broken noodle restaurant so fatefully, then how can I not give you the best food!" After saying that, the master turned around and walked into the dilapidated kitchen, I don't know what happened, just now I remember that I haven't ordered yet, how does he know what I want to eat?
Yuxuan pulled the corner of my clothes and said in disbelief: "Do you know this person?" ”
"Yes, he is my master, he is a relative, by the way, who is that Lu Chusheng you are talking about?"
"He's dead, he's just a witness in my previous case, let's not talk about him, remember not to dislike it when the master serves you food!"
"I see!"
Looking at this broken noodle restaurant, I can't believe what good dishes will be made here, and Yuxuan actually brought herself to such a place to eat, if it was for other girls, she would have run away, she is really different, and gradually feels that she is really a little interesting to her, but I always think that she is not Jizi, I can't treat them as the same person just because they are similar, after all, Jizi is always Jizi, and Yuxuan is always Yuxuan.
The chef quickly took out the porridge with preserved eggs and lean pork and fried noodles, and I asked him curiously, "Do all the people who come to this place like to eat these?" ”
He nodded, then turned around and approached the kitchen, I just ate a bite of porridge, I don't know if I don't eat, I feel that this porridge is extraordinarily delicious, the taste of preserved eggs and lean meat completely penetrates into the bottom of the porridge, the burst of aroma makes people have an endless aftertaste, I really want to eat after eating a bowl, and then put a little fried noodles into my mouth, chew a few times, sure enough, it is still a first-class taste, the taste of the noodles is extraordinarily fragrant, but not greasy.
After a while, I cleaned up the food, and at this moment, the master proudly took two bottles of wine from it and walked out: "Hehe, eldest grandson, since your daughter-in-law is here today, let's have a drink!" ”
Uh? Daughter-in-law? I was full of black lines, but Yuxuan was even more happy when she heard the master call her like this, and helped the master take the wine glass and poured two glasses and drank with us, this girl is very open, different from Ji Zi, Ji Zi is very pitiful, and she is not as easy-going as her, hey! I'm in distress right now because I'm afraid I'll think I'm going to think of her as my former playmate, Kiko Kobayakawa, and I hope that this doesn't happen.
After a few glasses of wine into the stomach, Yuxuan and I opened the box, talked about everything, and talked to the master about the last time I went to the Huangchao Tomb, originally these things, the master can be a story to hear, but he seems to be very nervous about the Huangchao Sword in it, I remember that the real master in the underworld at that time wanted me to find this sword and hand it to him, but the black baron had already taken the Huangchao Sword away, will he swallow this sword privately after he goes back? And why is this fake master in front of him so interested in Huang Chaojian? I have the impression that he is just a farmer from the village. Eat the perfect food, and talk to the fake master about the Huang Chao Sword, this guy doesn't know how to always want to know about this sword, so I told him that the black baron took it away, and then this guy saw that we were going to leave and sent us away.
But just now I could see that when he learned that the Yellow Nest Sword had been brought back to the underworld, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes instantly, and he actually felt disappointed, what the hell was going on? Does he also want to get the Yellow Nest Sword? But he's not a real master at all?
Confused about this, I have already said goodbye to Yuxuan and returned to my dormitory, but I often think of meeting Huang Xiaoyu in a big shopping mall just now, I can't imagine that she is with that half-human and half-ghost, it's really unpredictable!
I wonder how I'll feel when I see her again? Actually, I feel like I still like her very much, but she's someone else's girlfriend now, and the past should be let pass, so I'll forget all this! Plus I have Yuxuan now, I can't let her down, I must not fail this time, thinking of the bumpy love experience before, I am especially serious about this relationship now.
In this way, I fell asleep peacefully, and the next morning it was my day of work, and when I returned to the car company, Zhuge Chengtian and Yaxin were busy with their own things, but when I opened the email and received an email, I was a little surprised, the customer above was a village husband, saying that the house was haunted yesterday, and asked us to go over and see, where is this Tangfu Village? it! Isn't this my hometown? Don't be so coincidental, it's okay, it's okay or not, it's going to happen like this, and it's the rhythm of letting me take the train home again, and recently because of business, I often run around Guangdong and Hunan.
He Yaxin explained everything, and I set off, although the remuneration provided by this villager is not high, but since it is something that happened in our village, and we are doing this industry to help more people, so no matter where we are in China, or when we leave China, we will be obliged to reach the place where we are needed.
The way home is said, talking about this part of my way back to Tangfu Village, before my father went far away, this time I didn't go into the house, just passing by, I don't want my mother to know that I came back so soon, she will definitely find a way to keep me at home, then I want to go to the trouble of running errands, besides, she still thinks I work in that antique company? I didn't know that I had already changed careers and become the owner of an exorcism company.
Back to Tangfu Village, the long-lost fresh breath of the countryside, looking at the government's latest open roads, new parks and various facilities built here, this place has finally been developed, maybe I don't know that the rich man took a fancy to this piece of land, according to the address to find the village man's house, a man in relatively old-fashioned clothes walked out of it, saw me coming, and quickly invited me in.
"This master, I heard that you are also a native, so you can help our family!" The man was extremely anxious, his forehead was covered with sweat, and the bags under his eyes were red and swollen, and it seemed that he must not have slept well last night.
"Don't be nervous, let's talk slowly, if we cultivators can help, we won't help you!"
"That's good, that's good, master, didn't it rain here last night? There was lightning and thunder, and then we weren't having dinner? Originally, there was nothing, but after eating, when we lit it with candles, we found that there was an extra white-bearded old man in blue clothes in the candlelight! ”
Wait! I interrupted the man's words all of a sudden, because he actually said that he used candles last night, what age is this, and he still uses candles, which is a bit unreasonable, right? So I asked him why.
He told me that there was a sudden power outage last night, that several of his children were sleeping, and that the couple still had something to talk about so they wanted to light a candle, and who knew that in the candlelight they saw something strange appearing, and then I asked him how he was? The man told me that of course the two of them were startled when they saw the white-bearded old man, and then he disappeared, and of course he thought that he was dazzled just now, but at that time a thunderclap sounded, and in an instant the rain fell more in the sky, and my wife saw the old man looking in with a pair of miserable white eyes in the crack in the door of the room.
The man continued, they were paralyzed on the ground in horror because they saw these eyes, and that a man should have been bold enough to get up and see the situation, so no matter how frightened he was, he mustered up the courage to stand up, came to the doorknob, and opened the door with a pull, but fortunately there was no one outside the door, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
But the two coincidences are definitely not coincidences, they already know that this room is a little abnormal, how could there suddenly be a white-bearded old man in blue clothes? Could it be that the family has died, and the soul has escaped?
Thinking of this, the two of them were even more frightened, and the man and I said, when they were frightened by the thunder, they suddenly found that in the corridor on the second floor of the house, there was a wooden old man standing watching them, and the woman was almost crazy, and at the same time, one of their eldest children suddenly rushed into the room, shouting: "Mother! Dad, what's wrong with you? Answer me! ”
At that time, the villager and his wife were almost stunned, so they were still in the mood to tell their children what was going on? Sitting on the ground unconsciously, seeing his child running over and having to hug him tightly, the child was not sensible, and when he saw his parents not moving, he continued to ask: "Mom and Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”
Of course, the two did not know what to answer, but when the man told the child that there was an old man on the second floor, the child looked up curiously and looked up but could not see anything.
"There's nothing! Mom and Dad! What do you see on it? ”
Hearing the child say this, the two people were just surprised, and at the same time raised their heads to look at the corridor on the second floor, sure enough, the old man was gone, just at the moment when they were puzzled, there was a knock on the door just outside the door, this knock on the door, and suddenly let a few people who just relaxed, hurriedly mentioned the throat and eyes, the man walked the big hall, trembling and opened the door of the room, only to see two people outside, a person wearing Taoist clothes, carrying a corpse wrapped in green cloth on his back, and the other person was also dressed as a Taoist priest, Holding a token in his hand, and a bell.
When the two men saw the man, they said, "Hello! We are corpse chasers from a nearby village, and we are too tired tonight, so we want to borrow your place to rest! ”
"This can't work, how many children do we have in our family, and how can we put down a corpse at such a small age?" The man was still frightened by what happened before? Now there is a sudden corpse chaser, it is strange not to be frightened, although the modern corpse chaser has basically disappeared, but in our Tangfu Village, this place, it is still often seen.
Seeing that the man was unwilling, the Taoist priests said, "This is a long way, we are really tired, can we just rest here?" ”
The man hesitated for a while, and suddenly remembered that there was a corpse stack after 5 miles south of Tangfu Village, and those who chased the corpses would generally go that way, so he told the matter, and the two Taoist priests discussed it for a while, thinking that this was also the case, so they left, and then the next morning, the villager, that is, the man, found me on the Internet with his mobile phone, and I rushed back to my hometown.
The journey was very fast, I set out from 9:30 in the morning, and now it is more than 10 in the evening, these two people are afraid that the old man with the white beard will come to harass them again at night, so they just let me come here and help them catch ghosts, according to the two of them, the old man with the white beard appeared at 11 o'clock last night, and now I am in the room with his wife, and their children, and I am in the hall of the house, preparing for the appearance of this guy.
Sure enough, at more than 11 o'clock, the white beard came again, and there was a gust of wind around the windows of the house, which shook so badly that there was a loud sound of wood hitting the wall, and I used my sleeves to block these yin winds from blowing into my eyes, staring left and right, feeling a wave of evil breath coming to my nose, and then I just heard the people in the room screaming, and I wanted to end it all immediately, who knew that I was just about to start at the moment, but I found that the old man was outside the door, and there was a familiar figure next to him, Dressed in red and holding a red umbrella in his hand, isn't this the lotus demon?
I remember that my father went out to find the Yin-Yang Knife to help her heal, how could this guy be with an old man? After taking a serious look at the old man, I found that this person was very familiar, wasn't this the old man who told us not to go to the Qili Tomb last time?
