Chapter 45: The Free Coffin
After hearing the news, Zhang Yuan's voice also became impatient: "My daughter has been taken away by them for more than ten years, why did she suddenly want to be sent to the underworld?" "
Paper Zha Wu shook his head: "I don't know about this, maybe there is something wrong with the underworld." "
Zhang Yuan was silent for a while, and then asked, "How is she now?" "
"It's not bad, at least it's much better than what you look like now." It's just that the ghost on the body is a little heavier, and the coffin shop is that kind of place, I don't say that you understand. "
Zhang Yuan's voice was very soft, but his tone was firm: "I want to save her." "
Paper Zha Wu shook his head: "You can't save it." "
Zhang Yuan said very firmly: "I must find a way to save her, even if I don't want this life." "
Paper Zha Wu smiled helplessly: "If you work hard, you can get things done." We don't have to carry a curse for thousands of years. "
At this time, Zhang Yuan didn't speak anymore.
Paper Zha Wu seemed to be unbearable, and said: "Lao Zhang, there is another news, you had better hold on." "
Zhang Yuan asked lightly: "After so many things, what else can I not stand up?" You say. "
Paper Zha Wu seemed to hesitate, and then said hesitantly: "Your body"
At this moment, Zhang Yuan's voice suddenly became nervous: "What's wrong with my body?" "
Paper Zha Wu sighed: "They burned it." "
I was so shocked that I couldn't help but blurt out: "Burned? "
Paper Zawu nodded slowly.
Zhang Yuan never spoke.
Several of us were vaguely worried. I couldn't help but ask in unison, "You're okay, are you?" "
Zhang Yuan didn't speak, and suddenly, there was a wow. A blood spot inexplicably appeared on the paper man's body.
I pointed to the blood spot in surprise: "Old man Wu, what's going on?" "
Paper Zha Wu sighed: "It's okay, that's not real blood." It was the soul that was traumatized. "
A few seconds later, Zhang Yuan's voice also sounded: "I don't have anything to do, let me rest for a while." Old man Wu, don't go, there are some things I want to discuss with you. "
Paper Zha Wu sat on the futon and smiled bitterly: "This trip has exhausted me, if you let me go, I can't go." What are you going to discuss with me? Help you save your daughter or help you find your body? "
Before Zhang Yuan could speak, the mobile phone in my pocket suddenly rang.
This mobile phone is turned off all year round because the temple is not powered on. I just charged a little power at Li Xiaoxing's house last night. Unexpectedly, someone called today.
I looked at the number and it was strange. So I answered the phone and habitually asked, "Hello, do you want to buy insurance?" "
There was a nervous sentence: "Master Xu, it's me." "
I was a little impatient: "Who are you?" "
They said, "I'm a taxi driver." You forgot? Two days ago you gave me a business card so I could find you for something. "
I scratched my head: "Did I say that?" What's the matter with you? "
The driver said, "I've got something dirty, can you help me?" "
I said decisively, "Don't be, I'm not available right now." Then, he hung up the phone.
When I hung up the phone, I noticed that the rest of the people were not talking and were looking at me intently. I was a little hairy by them. "What's wrong?" he asked. "
None of the three of them spoke.
I don't dare to mess with Zhang Yuan, and I can't afford to mess with Wu. So I glared at the abbot: "Tell me what the hell is going on." "
The abbot glanced at Zhang Yuan and Paper Zha Wu anxiously, and then said: "I don't know what's going on with Lu Dao, I saw that Paper Zha Wu was looking at you, so I followed to take a look." "
I was speechless.
At this time, Paper Zha Wu said slowly: "Xu You, who called you just now?" "
I saw that his expression was abnormal, and I was a little uncertain, and said, "A taxi driver." What's wrong? "
"This person's voice is a little wrong. "
I nodded, "That's right, he said he saw something dirty." "
Paper Zha Wu shook his head: "It's not that simple. "
Immediately, Zhang Yuan's voice also sounded: "The voice on the phone should not be something that people can make." Xu You, it may be a ghost who called you. "
When I heard this, I couldn't help but shudder: "Ghost? Call me? "
I didn't dare to slack off, and told the taxi driver exactly what happened.
Paper Zha Wu frowned: "It shouldn't be." The voice on the phone was definitely not from a human being. It couldn't be the taxi driver. "
I asked Paper Zha Wu: "Is it a ghost?" "
Paper Zha Wu shook his head and asked Zhang Yuan: "Zhang Daoyou, what do you think?" "
Zhang Yuan said: "There should be a ghost who wants to lure Xu You over, and then deal with him." "
When Zhang Yuan said this, I began to beat the drum in my heart: "I didn't recruit anyone and didn't provoke anyone, why do you want to deal with me?" "
Zhang Yuan and Paper Zha Wu couldn't say the reason, but they just told me to be careful and not to run around outside for the past two days. Although the temple is very small, after all, there is incense offerings, and ordinary ghosts dare not come here easily.
I nodded in agreement. But my heart is always a little unsteady, and I always feel that as long as I step out of the temple gate, someone will arrest me.
And in the past few days, Zhang Yuan has also deduced countless times with Paper Zha Wu, and they are still discussing how to save Master's daughter.
According to Paper Zha Wu, he would not have been involved in this matter anyway, but the master was so pitiful. The daughter was arrested, and her body was gone. So stay here with him for two days, delay some time, and do some useless work.
Zhang Yuan proposed countless methods, but each one was rejected by Paper Zha Wu. These methods don't work for one reason. That's the dumb man in the coffin shop.
I, the abbot, the master, paper zha Wu. We've all been to the coffin shop before, and we've all seen mutes. But we don't know whether the dumb man is a human or a ghost, and what strength he has. The only thing we know for sure is that his strength is terrifying. We fought hard with him, and we were definitely looking for death.
It is because of this uncertainty that all the methods cannot be deduced. For a few days in a row, things turned into a dead end, a dead end that could not be solved. Zhang Yuan sighed all day long, saying that the days are decreasing day by day, and what is a father who is sorry for his daughter, annoying us to death.
The abbot has a wide heart and a fat body, and every day he eats and sleeps full, and sleeps and eats. Open the door at dawn to welcome guests, and sprinkle and sweep the temple when dark. Although the incense in the temple is not very good, there is no problem for a few of us to eat and drink.
However, one day, the abbot opened the temple door for a whole day, but there were not a single pilgrims. Even the most pious old ladies did not offer incense and blessings to their mischievous little grandsons.
The abbot had been wondering all day, and in the evening, he couldn't help but sit still and began to walk around the temple.
And Zhang Yuan called me and Paper Zha Wu over again, and the three of us began to discuss how to save people again. Zhang Yuan estimated that he was in a daze, and the later methods became more and more outrageous, and he even called 110 to call the police, which was really ridiculous.
The three of us were discussing, and suddenly the abbot scolded outside: "Which bastard is so lacking in virtue? I don't have a place to live, do I? Put these things at the door of Lao Tzu Temple? If it weren't for a few years of reading, Lao Tzu saw through the red dust, and a paralyzing punch knocked you into the mother's womb. "
Paper Zha Wu frowned, and shouted to the door: "Abbot, what kind of wind are you smoking?" "
The abbot scolded and walked back: "Paralyzed, I don't know who put two coffins at the door of the temple." One left and one right, like a door god. No wonder no one came to offer incense in the past two days. "
As soon as I heard the coffin, my eyebrows couldn't help jumping: "Could it be the person from the coffin shop?" "
I looked at Zhang Yuan and Paper Zha Wu.
Zhang Yuan was hidden among the paper figures, I couldn't see his expression, and at that time I could hear him hesitantly say: "It shouldn't be a coffin shop, if the people in the coffin shop want to deal with us, there is no need to be so mysterious." "
Paper Zha Wu also nodded, adding a little affirmation: "It shouldn't be someone from the coffin shop." "
At this time, the abbot also returned.
I nervously asked the abbot, "Is there anything in the coffin?" "
The abbot shook his head: "I didn't put anything, and I put on the two empty coffins." The workmanship is so good that I can't help but want to lie down and try it. "
I waved my hand: "No kidding. Let's get these two coffins out of nowhere. I looked panicked. "
The abbot was embarrassed and said, "Now it's dark, and there are no people on the street, and there is not even a helper, where can I get it?" "
I confidently said, "Look at me." Then I walked towards the temple gate.
This move startled Zhang Yuan and Paper Zha Wu, and the two of them hurriedly shouted: "Don't go out, have you forgotten the phone call from the other two days?" "
I looked back and smiled, "Don't worry." Then, I shouted outside the temple: "The Great Holy Temple has given the coffin, and I don't take a penny." There are only two paintings, on a first-come, first-served basis. "
After shouting this, I retreated.
The abbot blinked at me: "Is this okay?" Someone would want such an obscure thing? "
He didn't finish speaking. In the distance, an old lady shouted, "I heard it first, leave me a pair." However, before she could reach the gate of the temple, two old men had obviously better legs and feet, and had already occupied the coffin.
The old lady was naturally angry and quarreled with the two old men.
The abbot looked at everything outside the temple in amazement, and I patted him on the shoulder: "In China, just write the word free." Even if it's a bomb, there are people who can dismantle it and sell it for scrap metal. "
And the quarrel outside the temple has apparently escalated. The three of them not only quarreled again, but also began to push and shove.
The abbot relented, ran out of the city and said, "You are so old, don't do it"
Before he finished speaking, the old man picked up a half-cut brick from the ground, threw it at the abbot's head, and scolded in his mouth: "You want to fucking come and rob Lao Tzu too?" "
The abbot fled back in embarrassment, covered his head and said, "Fight, kill it, I don't care anyway." "
