After a few seconds, Zhixi quickly followed and asked in a low voice.

"Chen Xian, do you really have a way to make the dead speak?"

I shook my head and explained, "When a dead man speaks, it's called a corpse." ”

"I don't know this, all I can do is summon the spirit, let the old man's soul come back, and tell them myself."

"Oh." Zhixi nodded: "Do you have to wait until tonight?" ”

"I've heard people say that the conjuring of spirits must be at night, preferably when the time of the child, when the yin qi is the heaviest, and it is easier to recruit."

"No, you don't." As I spoke, I walked into the mourning hall.

The huge coffin was placed in the middle of the mourning hall.

In front of the coffin, there is a black-and-white photograph of the deceased, surrounded by wreaths.

Behind him, a group of Liu family members followed, and Liu Zidong scolded and scolded.

"If you can't get my dad to speak today, I'll find someone to get you!"

I didn't bother to pay attention to him, and instructed Liu Zimin on the side: "Go, put three sticks of incense on the old man." ”

Liu Zimin did so, and soon, three wisps of green smoke rose from the incense burner.

"Little sir, and then?" Liu Zimin looked at me and asked.

"Kneel, and you, with him." I turned my head and said to Liu Zidong.

He looked reluctant and asked me why I was kneeling, did I deliberately play tricks on him?

I glanced at him and sneered, "What? The bones aren't soft yet? It's not uncommon to see you kneeling for those creditors outside, why don't you come back and kneel for your dead father? ”

Liu Zidong's face changed suddenly, and he choked and said, "What are you talking about?" Who did Lao Tzu kneel to? ”

"Kneel or not, you know in your own heart, don't you want your dad to speak? Then kneel, don't talk nonsense! ”

Liu Zidong glared at me, and the fierce light in his eyes wanted to eat me alive.

He stepped forward and knelt down with a puff, but his movements were really skillful.

"Recite your father's name in your heart, be sincere!" I admonished.

At this time, Zhixi stepped forward and asked me in a low voice, "Chen Xian, did you know him before?" ”

I shook my head, and Zhixi asked again: "Then how do you know that he often kneels for people outside?" ”

"I can see it." I said, "If you look at his face, his forehead is low and narrow, and he has messy lines, and this kind of person is generally stupid and inflexible, and it will be very difficult to start a business." ”

"In addition, the distance between his eyebrows is narrow, this is a typical narrow-minded appearance, but he has drooping eyebrows, a thin nose, and a cowardly personality, have you noticed the gesture of him and his daughter-in-law asking for money just now?"

"I don't know how big an official I think is outside, this kind of person is mostly machismo, boasting that he is the pillar of the family, but he is nothing, a cowardly character meets a debt collector in the nest, kneeling, is the best solution."

After saying this, when Zhixi looked at me again, little stars had already appeared in her eyes.

"Wow! You're amazing! How do you know so much? ”

"Since elementary school, everyone can do it, nothing great."

"You've been learning this since you were a child, huh? No wonder you don't go to school. ”

I didn't answer Zhixi's words, stared at the three incense sticks in the incense burner, and found that only the leftmost incense stick burned at a normal rate, and the other two burned at a turtle rate.

Some people also found out about this and wondered if the incense they bought was damp, so they thought about trying to change it.

But no matter how you change it, only the leftmost incense stick is burning normally, and the other two are slow.

As the old saying goes, people are afraid of three long and two short, and incense is afraid of two short and one long!

But this situation of short and long is really rare.

I'm a little confused, too.

By the end, the incense on the far left had been burned, but half of the remaining two had not been burned.

Everyone frowned and was puzzled, and the two brothers of the Liu family also stood up in confusion and asked me what was going on.

I stepped forward, picked up the incense burner and looked at it, but found nothing unusual, and looked around in the mourning hall, and even came to the coffin and knocked it with my hand a few times.

Seeing my behavior like this, Liu Zidong's temper came up again, and he said in an unkind tone: "You little kid, did you play any tricks?" Want to extort money? ”

"I can warn you, if you don't solve this matter for me, you must spit out all the two thousand dollars just now!"

I ignored him and walked around the mourning hall twice.

I smell a special breath, but I can't tell what it is.

It wasn't until I looked up and looked at the ceiling that I realized the clue.

I saw that at the top of the ceiling, there was a cyclone that was constantly spinning, unwilling to disperse.

And this cyclone was made up of green smoke that had just risen from burning incense, and they hung above the coffin's head, as if trapped.

I immediately realized that the breath I had just smelled was the resentment of the deceased.

This incense was repelled by resentment, could not be burned out, and could not leave, so there was the current vision.

Thinking about this, I said to the two brothers of the Liu family: "When your father died, he had resentment in his heart and refused to accept the incense. ”

"Resentment?" Liu Zidong suddenly looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, grabbed Liu Zimin's collar and roared.

"I'll just say, Liu Zimin, my father must have been killed by you, otherwise where would he get such a big resentment and refuse to even accept incense?"

"You fart! I didn't kill Daddy! I didn't! Liu Zimin argued loudly, and the two sides quarreled again.

I listened with a loud head and shouted, "What is the noise?" If the old man was really killed, it would not only be as simple as resentment, but at least it would have to be unjust, not this matter, think about it again, what else can make the old man resentful and refuse to accept incense? ”

The two quieted down and pondered for a while, Liu Zidong suddenly said: "Zimin, you say, could it be because the eldest sister didn't come back?" ”

Liu Zimin pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Don't say it, it's really possible!" ”

"When my father was alive, he kept talking about the eldest sister, wanting her to come back and take a look at him, but the eldest sister was so ruthless, let alone come back, she didn't even want to make a phone call."

Liu Zidong's expression was hideous, he snorted coldly, and said: "This woman is unfilial piety brought out in her bones, and she didn't make a phone call when her mother left!" ”

"I've raised her for so many years, and I don't even say a word when I leave, and those who step on horses and raise a dog are more filial than her!"

When it comes to the eldest sister in the family, the two brothers surprisingly reached an agreement and scolded the eldest sister for being an unfilial woman.

I frowned as I listened, and hurriedly interrupted the two of them: "Why did she go abroad?" Still won't come back? ”

"That woman is a slut who admires foreign flattery, and during the war years, she was designated as a traitor!" Liu Zidong scolded.

"There has to be a reason, isn't it?" I asked, "Do you have any contact information for her?" ”

Liu Zidong shook his head, and the two of us looked at Liu Zimin together.

Liu Zimin whispered: "Zhao Di called me once a few years ago, and I wrote down the number ......."

Before he could finish speaking, I interrupted and asked, "Wait, what did you just call your eldest sister?" ”

"Zhaodi? What's wrong? Liu Zimin wondered.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and finally figured out why my eldest sister didn't go back to this home.
