Judging from the location given by Wei Yang, it took more than half a day to reach the widow's land, almost a day's drive. After getting into the car, the two brothers Zhu Laosan were silent, and they didn't ask where we were going, so they were so sullen. The people who do this line of work have such personalities, they are more serious and don't like to joke very much.

After walking for a while, Zhu Lao Er raised his head from time to time to look at me a few times, and several times he wanted to ask something, but in the end he still didn't say anything.

This trip needs to be accompanied by them, they are passive, I have to take the initiative, so I took the initiative to talk to them.

If you chat, you have to talk about what others are good at, and you should pass the time on the road.

I thought about it for a moment and asked, "How long have you two been doing this?" ”

"It's been a lot of years, more than ten years! The main reason is that our brothers have no culture and can only do this profession. It's a job that allows me to take care of my parents at home, and I can take my brother with me, oh, by the way, my brother is mute and can't speak. Zhu Lao Er answered me quickly.

I looked at Zhu Laosan, if he didn't say it, I really didn't find out that this Zhu Laosan couldn't speak.

Because he can't speak, I think it's no different from a normal person!

It can be seen that this Zhu Lao Er is also a kind-hearted person, and in order to take care of his family, he would rather do this despised industry than go out to work. Judging by his appearance, he should be in his thirties, and he may not be married yet.

"Boss Zhou, what are you doing? Why does Elder Wei respect you so much? And where are we going? ”

I looked at him and asked, "Wei Tinglong didn't tell you where we're going?" ”

Zhu Lao Er shook his head and said, "No! ”

"And how much did he give you?"

"Two thousand, two thousand for one person! That's four thousand pieces in total. ”

Two thousand!

This price is a bit low, what we are doing is so dangerous, it is a bit inappropriate to only give people 2,000.

But I saw that Zhu Lao Er's face looked very satisfied, and I couldn't bear to say anything.

Maybe 2,000 yuan is not a small amount for him! Thinking of this, I also have my own calculations in my heart.

"We usually carry the coffin for only two or three hundred yuan once, but Wei Lao gave us so much money at once, which makes me a little confused about what we are going to do."

I looked at Zhu Lao Er and said, "It's okay, you'll know when you arrive, and you can follow me closely when the time comes." ”

"Good!" Zhu Lao Er nodded heavily.

We chatted for a while, and also got to know this Zhu Lao Er briefly, there are two brothers in their family, and there was an elder brother before, but he fell into the water and drowned when he was a child. Because of the poor family conditions, he is not married, his parents are there, but his father has been paralyzed for many years, and his mother has been taking care of him. In addition to carrying the coffin, the two brothers usually do farm work at home. In his own words, life is okay, at least the family can always be reunited, and when the coffin is carried up, they can still eat well.

It can be seen that he is very optimistic, and his attitude towards life is worth learning from many people.

Life is inherently a complex process, and the more you want, the more troubles you have. Like him, who is not very demanding, as long as he does not have to worry about food and clothing, and can eat two meals of meat from time to time, the mentality that the family can be reunited is a blessing is a good attitude.

People don't have to live a rich life, you have to go to what others have, that's life, in fact, putting a good attitude is the most important thing. Life is originally a path of mentality, and if you have a good mentality, you will live an easy life, and if you live an easy life, you will be comfortable.

When people live in the world, don't they just want to be comfortable?

While chatting, I pulled the topic to their coffin, so I asked Zhu Laoer: "Then when you carried the coffin, did you encounter anything strange?" ”

"I've encountered it!" Zhu Lao Er didn't think about it and blurted out: "There are many strange things, if we can't meet the coffin, then others may not be able to meet it." ”

"Oh? What happened? ”

Zhu Lao Er said: "We have been carrying the coffin for so long, in fact, we have encountered a lot of strange things, what coffins can't be lifted, roosters jump around, and there are many cases of rope breaking!" ”

"Once, we had a night burial! Night burial is the funeral custom of a village, in that village, people who die due to natural and man-made disasters, such as car accidents, hanging, homicide, throwing water and other ways of death are called "murderous death". The local villagers believe that the soul of such a deceased is unstable and has a very heavy evil spirit, and if it is buried in the ancestral grave, it will cause unrest in the family house, and the deceased and his descendants. As a result, there was the custom of night burials. It can only be carried by the eight immortals to a remote mountain col in the dark night without starlight, and buried in a wilderness far away from the ancestral tomb. ”

"Carrying this kind of person, we collect it more expensively, anyway, it is more expensive than the ordinary, first of all, the coffin is carried at night, and secondly, the deceased is a pregnant woman. said that it was because she was scolded by her mother-in-law, and she was scolded by her man, so she jumped into the water and drowned in anger. ”

"At that time, the main family gave us a thousand for each person, and we only carried the coffin, although one corpse and two lives, but the coffin was not heavy. We didn't feel anything when we carried it at first, it was normal, but as we carried it, the coffin seemed to become heavier. At first, it seemed like there was an additional person, and slowly it got heavier and heavier. However, we can't stop when the coffin is up, this is the rule in the industry, this is called the coffin does not fall to the ground, once the coffin lands, it must be buried on the spot. ”

"At that time, we walked to a cemetery, even though we felt that the coffin was getting heavier, but we didn't put it down, the eight of us just bit and didn't let go, we carried it, but the rope of the coffin didn't carry, and finally fell into the cemetery......"
