"Mix flour with water and mix Sanhe mud, apply it to the skull to shape the skin and flesh, carve out the facial features, and open the face with rouge."

The woman listened, but did not speak for a long time. After a moment, he stretched out his hand. When the muscular man saw it, he immediately ran over to help her, but she stopped him.

"You'll help me in the future." The woman pointed at me.

I was stunned for a moment, and I didn't react for a moment. But Yanzi pushed me behind and whispered, "Go quickly, this is the second sister who promised to accept you!" ”

As soon as I heard this, I immediately came to my senses. Although he was a little disgusted with the woman's behavior, he finally found a job, and stepped forward to grab the woman and help her to lie down on the rattan chair.

"That's all for today, I'm tired, you all go out first." The woman closes her eyes.

The muscular man and the others answered, and the Ma boss beckoned to me and retreated from the room with everyone. Back outside, several people immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and they all seemed much straighter. It seems that the woman in this room obviously has a great deterrent effect on them.

"Let's talk about treatment." Boss Ma led me out, and said as he walked, "Six thousand a month, including food and housing, what do you think?" ”

Before I came, I saw that the job posting said "good salary", and according to the market for the position of corpse makeup artist, I thought that I should have about 4,000. Later, when I saw the collapse of this funeral home, it was estimated that I would not receive any business on weekdays, so I automatically lowered my expectations to 2,000.

At this time, when I heard the words "six thousand per month", I was stunned. That's definitely more than I expected!

"I think it's good, will you start work tomorrow?" I was elated.

Ma Lao laughed and said, "If there is nothing else, you can come tomorrow." ”

Follow a few people to the door. Yanzi threw a wink at me and said with a smile: "Little brother, my sister will cover you in the future!" The muscular man smiled at me. The black hair stood there and didn't speak, and the thin bamboo pole was always stunned anyway, and there was no expression.

I said goodbye and left the Ronghua Funeral Home. I can't help but be excited when I think that I finally found a job with a high salary of 6,000 per month. This was my first full-fledged job, and although the process was tortuous, the results were still very good.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help humming a song and jumping towards the station. After walking for a few miles, the excitement passed, and when I looked back, I felt that something was wrong. The business of this Ronghua funeral home is so cold that although I have seen a few corpses inside, they were all a few days ago. Looking at their appearance, it is estimated that few customers will come to the door in a month.

With such a bleak business situation, how does this funeral home survive? And how can such a high salary of six thousand per month be given?

This seems to be a bit unreasonable.

I pondered and pondered until I got in the car, but I still didn't understand the reasoning. But for me who is anxious to find a job, I don't care too much, anyway, I will start going to work tomorrow, so let's go over and have a look.

After this toss, it was already afternoon to come back here. I happened to pass by Old Man Qian's shop, and when I saw that it was still early, I went in to talk to him for a while, and took a few pastries to eat by the way.

"You went to the Ronghua Funeral Home?" When Old Man Qian heard this, he took off his glasses and looked at me in a daze.

I was eating the mung bean cake and nodding my head to say yes.

"Did you really go there and apply for a job?"

I said yes, it was still a high salary of 6,000 a month, glanced at his shop, and said, "It's much higher than the salary of a guy in your place." ”

"You little baby, your heart is really big enough!" Old man Qian slapped the table, looking anxious.

I said what's wrong, isn't it just a funeral home, where are there so many taboos, you have to go when you die in the future, what's the big deal.

Old man Qian patted the table and said, "It's not a matter of whether the funeral home is a funeral home or not, you little baby, do you know how the glory came from?" ”

I ate a few pieces of mung bean cake in a row, my mouth was a little dry, I picked up the tea bowl and drank a big sip, then put it down and said, "What's the matter, this Ronghua funeral home looks quite old, is there anything special?" ”

Old man Qian glared at me several times in a row and said, "You dare to go without knowing anything?" Probably speaking, he took a big sip of the tea bowl, put it on the table, and said, "The land of Ronghua Funeral Home is very evil." Long before the liberation, it was a secret execution ground, and I don't know how many patriots were executed here. Later, this place became a mound, and then it developed into a cemetery, and in the early years, cremation was popular, and it was converted into a funeral home. ”

"Cemetery?" I recalled the environment around the Ronghua Funeral Home, "It's not like ah, it's a wasteland over there, where did the grave come from?" ”

Old man Qian glared at me and said, "Of course you can't see it now!" About 30 years ago, there was a thunderstorm night, and in the middle of the night, many people saw a huge thunderbolt crashing to the ground. The next day, I found out that the cemetery had been struck by lightning, and the grave was in shambles. ”

"Later, some people said that this land was evil, so it was split by the thunder, and the corpses in this tomb were quickly moved out."

"Since this place is evil, then you still have a funeral parlor built on it?" I'm a little puzzled.

Old man Qian shook his head and said, "This is not very clear, and I don't know whose idea it was." In the end, an old house there was used to rebuild a funeral parlor, which is today's Ronghua. It's just that after the funeral parlor was built, it has not been peaceful, and something has to happen from time to time, so the business is getting worse and worse, and in the end, no one comes to the door. ”

It turns out that this glory still has this history, which is quite legendary. No wonder the yin qi there is so strong, it turned out that it was a secret execution ground before, and it probably accumulated a lot of yin qi. Where the yin qi is heavy, it is naturally easy to produce moths, which is normal. It's just that the thunder struck the grave on this day, it sounds a bit mysterious, it's probably a coincidence.

"You little baby, if you still want to live in peace, hurry up and go home and stay well, don't go to that place!"

I gave him a blank look and said, "If you're willing to let me work in your shop, I'm sure I won't go." ”

When Old Man Qian heard this, he was immediately a little stunned, and said, "Our shop is a serious business, and we can't do anything illegal, right?" ”

I didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said, "I live in this murderous house, is it still a glory away?" Maybe I'll be safer staying in Ronghua than staying at home. ”

Old man Qian was stunned for a moment and said, "Ouch, I thought about it just now, and I forgot that you still live in the ghost building." Did you say that this job is still covered by food and housing? You quickly move into the funeral home to live, no matter what, it's safer than you live in the murder house! ”

This old guy really sees the wind and the rain. I was thinking about moving out, but I had to get permission from the family member.

After a few more idle words, I drank a belly of tea, and when I saw that it was not early, I went out and went to the market to buy some vegetables and came back. When I got home, Aoko was in the study on the second floor, and she didn't say anything when she heard me enter the door. Later, when he saw me going up and down the stairs, he asked, "When are you going to eat?" ”

I said it will be fine soon. I washed my face and went into the kitchen, and after about half an hour, I called Qingzi downstairs to eat.

"What's going on today?" Aoko sat down, saw a table of dishes, and asked.

During this time, in order to save money, I basically had two dishes and one soup for dinner, most of the time it was vegetarian, and occasionally a small meat was added. Fortunately, Qingzi, this woman is not too picky in this regard, as long as the ingredients are fresh and delicious, even if it is just green vegetables and tofu, she doesn't say anything. It's been a long time since there's fish and meat like tonight.

I had been waiting for her words for a long time, moved a chair and sat down, and proudly announced that I had found a job and would officially start work tomorrow.

Qingzi sandwiched a piece of eggplant and ate it, but there was no reaction when she heard it, just a "hmm". Seeing her indifferent reaction, I couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and said, "This salary is not low, 6,000 yuan a month, as long as we save a little money, it is enough for our usual expenses, and maybe we can save some money." ”

From time to time, Aoko sandwiched a chopstick dish, and it seemed that today's eggplant was quite appetizing to her, but she didn't react to what I said with great interest, and I don't know if I listened to it or not.

"I can't stay at home just when I go to work, you just ...... when you eat or something."

Before I could finish speaking, Aoko said, "Wash your clothes before you go out, breakfast is ready, and you must come back before dinner." ”
