Chapter VII. Go to the underworld

When Hu Zongren and I arrived at Granny Huang's house, it was almost 10 o'clock in the evening, and the old woman had already gone to bed at this time on weekdays. But I called her earlier and asked her to wait a little longer for me and Hu Zongren. Then I also reported to Sister Cai that I would go home a little later. On the way, Hu Zongren told me that the reason why he didn't ask Mr. Yang directly tomorrow but wanted to let Granny Huang go to the yin first now was because we couldn't be sure that Mr. Yang would definitely tell us the truth. I thought to myself, in fact, although Hu Zongren is five big and three coarse, sometimes his mind is still quite meticulous. And the craft is so bold, fortunately he is my friend, if it is my enemy, it is really difficult to deal with.

I gave my hair to Granny Huang, who was still old and ignored. Hu Zongren and I have long been used to it. Granny Huang's way to go to the yin is nothing more than a few things, either to get the other party's birth date and name, or to have something about this person. I can't know the name of the female vice president who died suddenly of a heart attack, and the specific time can't be verified for the time being, and the only thing I have to do with her is the strands of hair that have been torn off my hands.

Granny Huang took the strands of hair from my hand, then walked to the wall and removed the turtle shell hanging on the wall, and threw the strands of hair inside. Then she took out the horn hexagram that she had wrapped in a red cloth, put the two hexagrams together and walked to the Bodhisattva, and recited the sutra for a while, and then she came over, threw the two horn hexagrams, and threw them into the turtle shell.

Even if you ask the three hexagrams, the hexagram is one yin and one yang. Let me briefly say that her horn hexagram is actually a horn cut from both ends, the round side is the yang hexagram, the flat side is the yin hexagram, when asking the hexagram to throw in, if the upward side is the same on both sides, it means that it is two yin hexagrams or yang hexagrams, and it cannot be synthesized into one yin and yang, which means that the lower yin will encounter resistance at this time. Based on the three trigrams, if it is three pairs of yin and yang, it means that it will be very smooth, which is also a protective measure made by Granny Huang before each yin and gives herself to her bodhisattvas.

After reading the hexagram, Granny Huang said, lucky, this time there is no hindrance, and the owner of this hair is even eagerly waiting for someone to listen to her. The grievance is still hidden, let's talk about it when I get back. After saying that, Granny Huang made a cup of special tea that she herself had to drink every time before she went to Yin, and then began to close her eyes and meditate.

Every time at this time, Hu Zongren and I always had to obediently exit Granny Huang's room, but we wouldn't go far, just hanging around the door. Because Granny Huang has to stay nearby every time she goes to the yin, to prevent her from being hindered and unable to wake up after the yin, if this is the case, we have to pour her tea. It's getting late, and Granny Huang's goddaughters have already rested, and this matter can only be done by Hu Zongren or me.

Hu Zongren told me that although he is not particularly familiar with Granny Huang, because Fu Yunni recognized Granny Huang as her godmother, her relationship is also a lot closer. Since we ended the dispute with Cha Wudao, Hu Zongren often went to Granny Huang to pick up Fu Yunni home, so that he had a lot of troubles recently, but if Granny Huang could help, he would also ask Granny Huang to help. So this time we encountered a small difficulty, and he directly thought of Granny Huang. Hu Zongren also told me that he learned from the old man in the parking lot that the relationship between the female vice president and Mr. Yang did not seem to be very harmonious, because occasionally he saw the two of them arguing and parking at the same time before getting on the elevator.

When I said this, I understood why Hu Zongren was going to find Granny Huang first, in fact, he and I both understood in our hearts that the elevator girl we met at the moment obviously had a deep obsession, so it was a good thing to ask the old woman first.

Time passed quickly, and after Granny Huang woke up, she took a sip of tea by herself, and it seemed that she was walking back and forth quite fast this time. Hu Zongren and I heard the sound and walked to the back room, and when we were about to ask Granny Huang, she stretched out her palm to us, which seemed to say, "Wait a minute." Hu Zongren and I both shut up and didn't speak, just looked at Granny Huang. Granny Huang walked up to the Bodhisattva, lit incense and made incense, and when she was making a gesture, she muttered in her mouth: "Make evil, make evil, no wonder you don't walk well, after eating my incense, it's time to let go."

Although I didn't understand the meaning of her words, I vaguely felt that Hu Zongren's guess was probably right, and this woman was also a poor person in our opinion.

I must explain that Hu Zongren's behavior was indeed reckless before he was in trouble. Before that, his way of doing things was too far from mine, he didn't have my patience and habit to get to the bottom of everything, so he chose a more friendly way to deal with ghosts, he was more direct and rude, but after being with me for a long time, I found that he also began to know how to be tolerant and sympathetic, instead of trying to save trouble and go straight to the bottom.

To be honest, I'm still very relieved.

After Granny Huang finished worshipping, she waved to the two of us, and we followed her to the outside living room and sat down. Granny Huang said that after she went down just now, it didn't take much effort to find the woman. She said that the woman was 42 years old, surnamed Weng, and her full name was Weng Moumou, who was from Guizhou. When I was young, I didn't read much, so I went to nearby Chongqing to work. Because he is studious and shrewd, he quickly accumulated a lot of contacts and experience. In the 90s, due to the impact of the financial turmoil, the company I was in before could not continue to operate. The boss called the employees to have a casual meal, and the company said that it was gone. At that time, Ms. Weng was no longer young, she was almost 30 years old, because she had been busy with work before, missed a lot of suitors, and she had suffered hardships when she was young, so she was relatively strong in all aspects, and many men also felt a little discouraged from themselves.

When Granny Huang said this, she sighed, and I understood that she was motivated by feelings. Although Granny Huang has been single all her life, she is also a woman after all, and she is emotionally rich and easy to substitute for other people's experiences. Granny Huang went on to say that Ms. Weng saw that she was getting older day by day, and her career, which had been doing well, suddenly collapsed, and her life and work were all gone, and she was very sluggish for a while. But in a friend's introduction, he met a person, who was a small salesman in a chemical company at the time, two years younger than himself, and that was Mr. Yang. Granny Huang said that Ms. Weng told her that Ms. Weng saw that he was honest and willing to endure hardships, so she felt that she was still very good, and the two quickly became lovers.

Ms. Weng said that after two years of dating, the two of them got a marriage certificate, but because they had no money to handle the marriage, they only did it at their homes. Mr. Yang's parents were a little dissatisfied with Ms. Weng at first, because she was a few years older than their son, but that did not affect the two of them, because Mr. Yang was from Chongqing District, but he worked in the main urban area, and he did not have many opportunities to see his parents on weekdays, so he did not care. With the help of Ms. Weng, Mr. Yang's work soon began to improve, so the two began to think about whether they could be their own boss and start their own company.

Granny Huang said that Ms. Weng is a shrewd woman, so the two of them spent a few years, Ms. Weng is in charge of the financial accounts, Mr. Yang is responsible for negotiating business with customers, they have only two people of agents, into a company with its own patented technology products, the company's employees have also developed from the earliest husband and wife, to dozens of office staff, hundreds of workers have great potential for the rise of the enterprise, and all this, it took less than 10 years.

Ms. Weng told Granny Huang that during this period, although their careers were smooth, they earned a lot of money, and their worth and status improved, but the couple was not happy. Because Ms. Weng was born with a physical defect, she and Mr. Yang were never able to have their own children. Granny Huang said with some emotion that this Ms. Weng was originally older than Mr. Yang, and she couldn't have children yet, although Mr. Yang kept saying that she didn't care about this, but this made her feel a strong sense of guilt, and she began to feel annoyed that she couldn't give Mr. Yang a complete family. As the days went by, the living conditions got better and better, and Mr. Yang gradually forgot the promise he had made at the beginning.

Hu Zongren interrupted Granny Huang and said, how did he forget the Fa? Judging by his tone, this guy seems to be a little angry. Granny Huang said that this man, especially the man in the shopping mall, has a few who can still remember their wretched wives after reaching the most embarrassing time. Since 2008, this Mr. Yang has been a little unable to control himself, at first he just likes to go to nightclubs, because he was rich at that time, and he was also mature, so he was very attracted to those little girls, but they were only pointed, and they would not further develop into any physical relationships. At first, she still blamed herself for all this, blaming herself for not being born a complete woman or something, so she resigned herself to her husband's actions. But over time, Mr. Yang's courage began to grow, and when he saw that his wife had let himself go, he regarded it as acquiescing in everything he had done. He gradually began to stay home at night, and from time to time he found an excuse to go on a business trip, saying that he was going to talk about business, and this was ten days and a half months.

Hu Zongren suddenly said, godmother, quickly give me a cup of your tea. I asked him what you were going to do, and he said, "I'm going to calm down."
