Chapter 9 Dead Money

"Is there something wrong?"

Tan Guanghui turned his head sideways and looked at Liang Chuan, who had trespassed into the inner door;

Before, he was still the kind of adult product store owner who was as warm as the wind, but now, maybe because of the lighting, his face was a little gloomy.

"I want to ask you something more. Liang Chuan stretched out his hand and pointed to the old man on the right, "Your grandfather, what's your name?"

"Tan Jiacai. The young man replied.

"Okay, thanks, yes, wax figure, it's exquisite. ”

This is Liang Chuan's review.

"Thank you. The young man turned his head and continued to change his grandmother's clothes.

This is the shroud that Liang Chuan just delivered, and it is the most satisfying one for the young man's grandmother.

Liang Chuan was about to leave, and when he just walked to the door of the store,

Someone stopped him.

"Sir. ”

It was still that young man, he walked out, and walked very fast, in the process, Liang Chuan heard a metal crisp sound, and the other party should have picked up something on the way out.

Maybe when you turn around,

Something will hit your head,

You may be in a coma,

may also die a whimper,

But Liang Chuan did not choose to run out, but stood in place,

Didn't look back, didn't move.

Man is an emotional creature, when a person is emotional, he tends to become terrible, but at the same time, he can also be vulnerable, he can be seen as a tiger about to eat man, and at the same time, he can be seen as a fried cat can be caressed by people.

"Now the weather is getting weird, it's hot during the day and cold at night. Liang Chuan said.

The other party was silent for a long time, and then stood behind Liang Chuan.

Everyone has their own secrets, but some people's secrets are relatively shallow, and some people's secrets are deeper, and once they are punctured, they often suffer a great backlash from their inner emotions.

"Drink a glass of water and then go, I'll trouble you to run. Tan Guanghui said.

Liang Chuan nodded, turned around, and Nian Qinhee stood less than half a meter behind him, his left hand, behind him.

Liang Chuan took the initiative to walk back and sit down again on the chair before, and the other party went to pour water on the counter, but he should have put something down, and then walked over with two glasses of water.

"I used to go to the wax museum a lot. Liang Chuan took a sip of water.

"A lot of people will be afraid of them. Tan Guanghui sat on the chair opposite Liang Chuan, "I think this is a very terrifying thing." ”

"This is the norm, in fact, not only wax figures, but everything that resembles the appearance of human beings can arouse people's instinctive fear and repulsion.

One is due to the uncertainty of the truth and falsehood in the form of high simulation, when the degree of simulation is very low, people are not afraid, because they know that it is fake, the degree of simulation is high to a certain extent, people are sometimes not sure of the truth or falsehood, the real person as a fake, the dummy as a real person, will scare people.

Another possibility is that the appearance of the patient and the corpse resembles many of its visual deformities, elicitating the same panic and emotional upheaval in the observer.

In psychology, this is called the 'uncanny valley theory'. ”

"But you didn't. Tan Guanghui smiled and took out the cigarette again, after this time, he seemed to have completely calmed his emotions.

"I don't think I'll see things from a different angle. Liang Chuan replied, "Did you make your wax figure yourself?"

"Yes, I did it myself, and at the same time I maintained it myself. Tan Guanghui took out a lighter and lit a cigarette, "I was brought up by my grandparents since I was a child, my parents divorced when I was very young, and I rarely saw them, so when my grandparents died, I made their wax figures and put them in my shop."

It's like,

They're still with me,

Every day when I went to bed, they sat on the edge of my bed, like when I was a child, my grandfather fanned me to keep away mosquitoes, and my grandmother told me stories to put me to sleep.

When I wake up every day,

They still sat next to me, watching me get out of bed, watching me start my day's work and life.

With them, I can feel that this day is safe. ”

Liang Chuan nodded, indicating that he could understand.

"Can you really understand this feeling?" Tan Guanghui suddenly stood up and put his face in front of Liang Chuan, "Or is it just to simply echo me?"

Perhaps, in your eyes, I'm a pervert, a mentally ill person?"

"It's human nature. Liang Chuan replied, "At least, you know that the wax figures were placed in the back room, not in the store." ”

Oh, yes

Just imagine,

A customer walked into this dimly lit adult product store to buy that kind of shameful thing, but when he walked in, he saw two wax figures sitting in the corner.

It is estimated that it will leave a psychological shadow directly, and no matter how much medicine you take, you can't do it.

"I need to live. A smile appeared at the corner of Tan Guanghui's mouth, "I can distinguish some boundaries, by the way, what did you just ask my grandfather's name for?"

"There's something that might have something to do with your grandfather. ”

"My grandfather has been gone for half a year. Tan Guanghui reminded.

"It's an afterthought. ”

"What the hell is going on?"

"I can't say this for the time being, it involves a case, and there should be a report on the news channel in two days. ”

Liang Chuan got up again this time,

This time

He really planned to go.

"If you have something to do, go get busy first, you can come to me to play when you have time, and if you are interested in making wax figures, I can teach you." Tan Guanghui didn't chase it out this time.

"No matter how realistic the wax figure is, it is still fake after all. Liang Chuan looked at Tan Guanghui who was standing by the counter very seriously.

"I just want a sustenance, I'm not crazy and I'm not sick. ”

"You know, some fake things, when talked about too much, tend to become like that. ”

"What do you mean by that? I know in my own mind that if I really have a problem in my heart, I will go to a psychiatrist. ”

It's not that you take it seriously, it's her.

Liang Chuan shook his head, walked out of the shop, and without stopping, he walked out of the side street directly, and stretched out his hand to hail a passing taxi.

As soon as he got into the car, the driver was surprised and said with a smile:

"Dude, what a coincidence. ”

Liang Chuan also smiled, he was actually the driver who sent him, and when he went back, he actually got into his car again.

"I happened to go to the bathroom of a nearby supermarket to make it easier, haha, and let me pick up a 100 yuan ticket there. ”

"You're not dirty. Liang Chuan teased.

"It's dirty, no matter how dirty the money is, it's also fragrant, besides, it's not detected in the pit, I'm lucky." By the way, the money in the dung pit is also money, and it can still be picked up, but the red envelopes that are thrown on the road cannot be picked up. ”

Most of the taxi drivers are able to talk about the mountains, whether they are drivers in Rongcheng or Beijing, they are the same.

"Why?" Liang Chuan asked knowingly.

"I've heard that some people are unlucky at home, or their children are sick, they will listen to the words of those Taoist priests and goddesses, get a red envelope, put dozens of yuan in it, and then put the hair and nails of the unlucky or sick people inside, and throw them on the road. ”

"What if it's not a red envelope given by someone?" Liang Chuan asked.

"Isn't the red envelope lost by a person or a ghost?"

"What if it is. ”

"The ghost uses the underworld banknote, what is the use. The driver said dismissively.

"Accumulate yin virtue. Liang Chuan explained.

"And this statement?" the driver started the car and said at the same time, "Then I will have to pay attention in the future to see if there are any fallen banknotes on the street, I tell you, my daughter-in-law has just become pregnant, and it is always good to accumulate some virtue."

By the way, buddy, you'd better go back to where you came from?"

"Yes. ”

..................

In the adult goods store, Tan Guanghui rearranged the goods on the shelves, tidied up the house again, and then went to a hardware store on the street to buy a new lock and replace the door of the inner room.

After doing this, Tan Guanghui sat on the edge of the bed,

His grandfather and grandmother are still sitting there.

Wax oil, constantly dripping, this thing, has to be constantly maintained and repaired, of course, it is also because Tan Guanghui's conditions here are a little simple, and it is not suitable for the storage of wax figures.

"Grandma, you said you wanted to wear new clothes, and someone sent them. Tan Guanghui looked at the grandmother wearing a new shroud in front of him, "When I was a child, you were reluctant to eat, you were reluctant to wear, you did everything for me, we are now in good condition, we should eat, we should eat, and we should change clothes." ”

Liang Chuan rearranged his grandmother's clothes, grandma loves beauty and face, no matter how worn-out the clothes used to be, she had to be washed clean and dressed neatly, but now grandma can't move, so she has to rely on him as a grandson to do it.

"Grandma, what do you want next time, tell your grandson to dream, don't trouble others. ”

The sound of the mobile phone rings,

Tan Guanghui walked out of the back room and picked up the mobile phone on the counter to answer the call, which was a call from a distributor.

Of course, Tan Guanghui, who was looking at the list and talking about things, couldn't see it,

In his own room,

Wax figure of grandma sitting on a chair,

Suddenly his eyes closed,

And then slowly opened it again,

The wax oil on the body,

The drips are falling faster............
