Xiang Sheng said every kind of kung fu concisely. After talking about the thirty-six exercises, let's talk about the talisman used to drive away the corpse.

"We usually drive corpses, and the most commonly used are six kinds of symbols, starting symbols, line symbols, turning symbols, stop symbols, stopping symbols, and bridge symbols. These six kinds of talismans are also the six most basic techniques, and the thirty-six skills just mentioned are evolved from these six skills. ”

Shi Jian's head grew when he heard this, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Master Xiang, I really didn't expect to learn so many things in the corpse expulsion technique, and after listening to what you said, I realized that my previous understanding of the corpse expulsion technique was too superficial." ”

"Haha, don't be in a hurry, come home. In fact, I just listen to a lot, but I don't really learn much. You are a talented boy with a smart brain, I will take you a few times in a few days, I will teach slowly, you learn slowly, and you will learn it in less than a year and a half. Xiang Sheng said warmly.

"Hmm."

Xiang Sheng shouted at Boss Zhu: "Boss Zhu, borrow your needle and thread." ”

"Wait a minute."

Boss Zhu left the back hall for a while, came in with a sewing box, there were needles and wires in it, handed it to Xiang Sheng and walked out, and told him as he walked: "The sewing kit is sent to you, remember to take it away when you run out, don't stay." ”

Xiang Sheng sneered: "I'm not afraid of dead bodies parked at home, are you still afraid of these?" ”

"You can use the things used by the dead, and it will be very unlucky."

"Blind and exquisite."

Xiang Sheng muttered, picked up the needle and thread from the sewing box, threaded the needle and thread it at the light, and then hugged the head of the dead body under Shi Jian's surprised gaze.

"Master Xiang, what do you want to ......?"

"I forgot to tell you just now that the beheaded corpse can be rushed, and the skull and body must be sewn up before rushing. Originally, this kind of thing should have been done by Lao Si, you also heard Boss Zhu's words, Lao Si did not allow others to collect the corpse for him, so we had to do it by the corpse maker. ”

As he spoke, Xiang Sheng beckoned: "Son, don't stand so far, stand here, you can see clearly when you get close, I'll teach you how to sew your braincase." ”

At the age of twelve, he went down the mountain with his master to catch ghosts and zombies, Shi Jian is also a person who has seen the world, looking at Xiang Sheng's skull at the moment, the pair of dead eyes on the skull stared at the boss, staring at him directly, seeing that he felt cold in his heart and a chill in his back.

Swallowed his saliva, his eyes wandered, and he had nothing to say: "Master Xiang, how much do you usually charge for a trip?" ”

Xiang Sheng focused on sewing his braincase, and said without raising his head: "It depends on the situation, the distance is long, the road is not easy to walk, and you will receive more." Under normal circumstances, after receiving the corpse, two taels of silver will be collected, which will be used to clean the body of the deceased and purchase mourning clothes, and then calculate according to the foot journey, and one or two taels of silver for the two legs. ”

Just now I glanced at Boss Zhu's registration book, and it would take twenty days to send the dead body back to his hometown, Shi Jian calculated, the starting price was two taels of silver, plus the foot fee was ten taels of silver, and a corpse would earn twelve taels of silver.

It is impossible to drive only one corpse, even if there is no business in Lishui County, there is also business on the road. Rush when you go, catch up when you come, and earn a lot of money back and forth.

"The dead man's business is so good." Shi Jian sighed secretly, and somewhat understood why the Four-Eyed Daoist had so many gold bars.

After sighing, he continued to ask: "Master Xiang, we don't charge money before driving the corpse, what if we don't give money if we send it over?" ”

"Don't give money?" Xiang Sheng hugged his head, and Chong Shijian showed an eerie smile, "Anyone's money can be relied on, and no one dares to rely on the corpse chaser's money." ”

"Why?"

"First, the deceased is the greatest, and no family will deliberately not give money. The second is that everyone knows that our Mr. Walking is not easy to mess with, if you don't give money, I will let the dead bodies make trouble in your house every day, and see who will be the first to do it. I've been driving corpses for decades, and I haven't met anyone who has paid their debts. ”

Speaking of this, Xiang Sheng felt the need to remind Shi Jian a few words, "Yan'er, if you go out for a walk in the future, if the deceased's family is short of money, you can charge less, but you must not fail to collect money." How much of our walking gentleman relies on this to eat, and it may not be able to be blocked as soon as the mouth is opened. Besides, people's hearts are sinister, and if you are well-intentioned, some people may not remember your goodness. ”

Shi Jian nodded heavily, "Master Xiang, I remember." ”

"Wait for three more days, and if there is a corpse, we will rush together, and if there is no corpse, we will rush this one. Catch up with the single or not the double, just right. ”

Three days later, Shi Jian followed Xiang Sheng out for a walk. From this day on, he really came into contact with and learned the essence of Xiangxi's corpse expulsion technique.

Time passed quickly, through summer and autumn, I saw some cold cicadas singing and defeating willows, and the fire flowed westward, and months passed in the blink of an eye.

It's a new summer again, but see that: the flowers are full of butterflies and ruthless, and the trees are tall and the cicadas are noisy. Wild silkworms become cocoons and fire durians, and new lotuses begin to appear in the swamp.

In the afternoon, Xu Zhenren sat in the shade with a hookah and snorted cigarettes, Zhang boldly stood aside with a bamboo hat to fan the wind, and suddenly, he saw a group of people on the road ahead of him who were walking towards Yizhuang.

"Master, someone is coming."

Xu Zhenren looked up and hurriedly ordered: "Quickly put on the bamboo hat and go into the house, so that no one can see your face." ”

Zhang Daring was slandered and killed by Master Tan and the county government, and the arrest warrant has not been revoked yet. Since the Changsheng Inn killed the three of Master Tan, his charges of killing his wife and killing people have been completely confirmed, but others don't know it.

"Xu Zhenren, make a fortune today." A middle-aged man in a purple robe and a black melon skin hat greeted him.

"Master Xiang!" Xu Zhenren hurriedly stood up, smiled and arched his hand: "As soon as I come to the master, I will definitely be able to make a fortune." ”

Xiang Lao laughed, "If you get rich, I will be ruined." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand behind him, and saw several strong men carrying a black coffin forward.

"Xu Zhenren, this coffin is temporarily stored in Wanfu Yizhuang, please help me watch it for a few days."

Xu Zhenren walked around the coffin, feeling that the temperature around the coffin was a little low, and when the scorching sun was in the sky, he actually felt a little cold.

"Master Xiang, where did this coffin come from?"

Xiang Lao said with a gloomy face: "Speaking of this, I am troubled, a few days ago I was going to build a new house, on the wasteland north of Shili Town, I started digging the soil and digging up the coffin, do you say that it is not unlucky?" ”

Xu Zhenren glanced at the coffin a few times and said sympathetically: "The feng shui in that place is not very good. ”

Xiang Lao said: "I also don't think it's a good sign, I filled in that piece of land today, don't want it, find a place to build a house again." ”

Xu Zhenren was worried that the coffin was not for the master's relatives, so he didn't care about throwing Yizhuang, and it would cost money to deal with it himself, so he said uneasily: "Xiang master, I can help you look at the coffin, but you have to give me a letter in a few days." ”

"In this way, you help me find a piece of feng shui treasure, find it and inform me, I will send someone to carry it over and bury it."

Xu Zhenren gave a thumbs up, "Righteousness to the master." Let's carry it in. ”

"Do you hear me, carry it in."

A few strong people carried the coffin into the morgue and put it on two benches, and were about to leave when a cross-eyed man saw Zhang Daring's back, and said suspiciously: "This person's back looks like Zhang Daring......

"Cross-eyed, gone."

"Here we are."

"Xu Zhenren stays."

"Walk slowly to the master."

Sent to the old man and his party, Xu Zhenren returned to the morgue and looked carefully around the black coffin.

Zhang Daring walked over and asked, "Master, is there something wrong with this coffin?" ”

"Yin Qi is a bit heavy, but it's not a big problem. Be bold and stick a few evil charms on it. ”

"How many stickers?"

"Seven or eight."

Zhang boldly asked: "Is it seven, or eight?" ”

"You pig head, seven or eight will do." Xu Zhenren said a bold word and went out to smoke cigarettes.

Zhang Daring took eight evil charms and pasted them around the coffin, looked at it and left the morgue.

"Pasted?"

"It's pasted."

There was a faint click, and a charm-suppressing talisman attached to the coffin seemed to have been rubbed by an invisible hand, instantly wrinkled, and as if it had been doused with water, it was drenched, dripping water, and the dripping water was black.
