"I know where it came from......" Zhao Shenggang suddenly stood up from his chair, looking a little excited.

"I had a long dream. I saw an old opera troupe, they wore makeup on their faces, and sang a big opera on the stage, they sang Yue Opera, as if it was "Liang Zhu", and there were many people listening to the opera below, among them there was a middle-aged man in a Mao suit, with a standard traitor's head, he pointed to the actor who played Zhu Yingtai and said to the two men next to him: 'This girl looks good!' Later, you can bring her back to my house!" Those two men should be the middle-aged man's subordinates.

After the end of the show, the two men ran to the dressing room and gave the class owner some ocean, and whispered to the class owner. These two men took away the woman who played Zhu Yingtai in front of all the actors, and no one came out to stop them. Later, this woman was first raped by these two men, and then taken to the house by them to be ravaged by the middle-aged man.

Afterwards, the man with the traitor's head gave her five hundred oceans and drove her out of the house.

This woman put on a red wedding dress and red shoes on her feet, and committed suicide by throwing herself into the river......" Zhao Shenggang took a sip of tea, looked at the jar in Wu Shiqing's hand, and took a deep breath.

Wu Shiqing frowned and said: "Sure enough, there is a problem with that river, the red clothes are evil, and she has such a kind of resentment, no wonder there have been frequent traffic accidents on National Highway 103 over the years." ”

After listening to Zhao Shenggang's story about the female ghost's experience before her death, Cuihua sighed.

"Daddy, this female ghost is so pitiful......" Wu Dan pouted.

Ma Mingxiang looked like righteous words, "Good and evil have not been separated since ancient times!" As a cultivator, you should never sympathize with this evil animal! Wu Shiqing! Give me this beast! ”

"I don't need to worry about this, God has the virtue of a good life, I will naturally resolve its resentment and overtake its reincarnation."

"One day you will pay for your so-called 'mercy'!"

After that, Ma Mingxiang brushed his sleeves and left.

"Zhao Shenggang, you must not leak what happened to this female ghost before her death, so as not to get into trouble. You can stay at home and rest for a few days, and you can go out to pick up goods after a week. Wu Shiqing instructed Zhao Shenggang.

Zhao Shenggang nodded, "Mr. Wu, you have worked hard, Cuihua, go to the small room (bedroom) to get some money." ”

Zhao Shenggang's car accident almost consumed the money earned by pulling goods in the past few years, Cuihua's owner borrowed it, and the west family got the cost of hospitalization, and now the family has no money.

She turned the house upside down, and there was only some change, which added up to more than seventy yuan. Duan Gong generally charges two or three hundred for doing Dharma services, and Mr. Yin and Yang is even higher.

Cuihua held this large stack of change in her hand and walked up to Wu Shiqing, "Mr. Wu, I'm really sorry, there is only this money left in the family." ”

Wu Shiqing looked at Cuihua's embarrassed appearance and said with a smile: "Actually, if you don't have so much, I just need to collect enough money from the old man's incense paper." ”

Wu Shiqing took the big stack of change, took out 30 yuan, and handed the rest of the change to Cuihua.

"Mr. Wu, you are too little, we can't let you do it for nothing?"

Wu Dan wiped his mouth and smiled innocently: "Uncle Zhao, Aunt Cuihua, don't worry, you can buy some incense paper for 30 yuan." ”

Zhao Shenggang let out a long sigh, "Hey, okay then." It's not too early, Cuihua, take Dan'er and Mr. Wu to the guest room to rest. ”

After being busy for most of the night, Wu Shiqing was also a little tired, and he fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the bed.

Wu Dan lay on the bed, tossing and turning, thinking of what happened to the red-clothed ghost, and felt quite touched in his heart, "If you look too ugly, you will be disliked, and if you look too good, you will be targeted by bad people, alas, ......"

Wu Shiqing woke up Wu Dan at dawn the next day, Zhao Shenggang and Cuihua were sleeping soundly, and he was embarrassed to disturb, so he packed up his tools and left with the jar.

U Thant carried the toolbox and didn't say anything along the way.

"Dan'er, what are you thinking?" Wu Shiqing asked with concern.

Wu Dan said sullenly: "Dad, that ghost in the altar is so pitiful, why are there so many bad people in the world?" ”

Wu Shiqing didn't answer Wu Dan's question, he didn't know how to answer, he just said to himself: "Yes, why are there always so many bad people in the world......

He thought about what happened to the female ghost in red, and said to Wu Dan meaningfully: "Dan'er, since ancient times, there has been a lot of life, in fact, it is not necessarily a good thing for a person to be too beautiful. ”

……

Wu Shiqing carried the jar into the hall, placed it under the large table dedicated to the statue of Emperor Zhenwu, and went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles for Wu Dan.

He took out the old yellow calendar again, turned a few pages, and muttered: "The day after tomorrow is the fifth day of the first lunar month, and that day is in ambush, and the yang energy is very strong, so it is a good day." ”

"Daddy, are you going out to run errands again?"

Wu Shiqing said to Wu Dan word by word: "Fish, corpse." ”

"Scooping up corpses? Where does Daddy go to get the body? Who to dig up the corpse? U Thant asked.

"Since the red-clothed ghost committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, its body is naturally still sinking at the bottom of the river, we have to fish its body up from the river, and then find a good place to bury it, so that it may be able to resolve her grievances and restore peace to the national highway." Wu Shiqing was serious, and his expression was very serious.

Wu Thant let out an "oh" and continued to bury his head in eating noodles.

There are many taboos in the collection of corpses, and these taboos are absurd and bizarre, but they are the lessons learned by the corpse diggers in exchange for blood and life.

Regarding the taboo of retrieving corpses, Wu Shiqing was not completely clear, so he had to contact Xiang Old Man and Xiang Kaiwen - the only corpse collector in Yanghuai Village.

Xiang Kaiwen's family is a poor and lonely old man, whose family is surrounded by four walls, and the thatched hut where he lives can barely shelter from the wind and rain, is the key poverty alleviation target in the village.

Wu Shiqing walked all morning with a bottle of Erguotou, and personally went to visit Xiang Kaiwen's house, this time he didn't bring Wu Dan, and he didn't plan to take her with him.

Because the person who collects the corpse must be a man, the woman herself is yin, and Wu Dan is a "person of extreme yin", so it is easy to be eroded by yin qi, and the disease is small, and it is not worth losing a small life.

Wu Shiqing walked into this small thatched hut, and a bald one-eyed man was lighting a fire and gnawing on steamed buns.

"Brother Xiang, I've come to visit you."

Xiang Kaiwen glanced at the wine in Wu Shiqing's hand, and immediately came to his senses, "Oh, it turned out to be Wu Duangong, please take a seat." ”

Xiang Kaiwen put down the steamed bun in his hand, decisively took Wu Shiqing's wine, and said with a smile: "Come on, what kind of wine do you bring!" "But the heart is beautiful.

"Brother Xiang, I'm here to ask for your help this time." Wu Shiqing got straight to the point.

"Can I help? Oh? This is very fresh, can I, a bad old man, still help Wu Daduangong? You can say what you are doing, just with this bottle of wine, I can help! Xiang Kaiwen poured the wine into the bowl and took a big sip.

"I want to ask Brother Xiang to help me get a corpse."

Xiang Kaiwen couldn't help frowning when he heard this, "Wu Duangong wants to get the corpse, it must not be simple." ”

Wu Shiqing nodded, "It's really a bit tricky, this corpse has a very strong evil spirit." ”

Xiang Kaiwen began to hesitate, and after thinking about it carefully, he said to Wu Shiqing: "Wu Duangong, we said in advance, if this corpse is not erected, I can fish it for you, but I can only help you fish it once, as for whether you can catch it or not, it depends on the will of God." Also, I can't help you get your body out during a thunderstorm. ”

Wu Shiqing knows that each industry has its own rules and taboos, and since Xiang Kaiwen has put forward these conditions, he must have his concerns.

Wu Shiqing nodded and said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry, I can accept what you say, you have a good rest, and the day after tomorrow you will go with me to the river on National Highway 103 to fish for corpses." ”

Xiang Kaiwen took another big sip of wine, "If you want it, you want it." ”
