Chapter 143: One after the other
"Uncle Chen, is there any way to find out everything?"
I asked hurriedly.
You really can't blame me for reacting too much and being too anxious.
According to the ancient texts, this type of sacrifice usually required more than one infant, a small number of three or seven, and a large number of hundreds or even thousands.
Just thinking about it makes me feel numb in my scalp and my brain buzzing.
No, since I met me, I must not let the tragedy happen!
At this time, Uncle Chen's face is also not very good-looking, but because there are too many strange things he has encountered recently, anyone will feel tired.
"Actually, it's the same as Xiao Liu's incident, complete the paper work as soon as possible, so that it makes sense to call people over again."
"Then I see."
After saying that, I had already started to act quickly, and Ah Dong also came out of the backyard to help me.
Things get busy.
But I never expected that before a few of us had lunch, there was a second customer in the store today, and I was happy in my heart, thinking that there were quite a few customers today.
I thought that the business was on the right track, but what I said made me stunned instantly!
"This master, you must be the boss!"
"Let me tell you, my hard-working baby is only three months old, but she fell off the kang yesterday and was out of gas when she was sent to the hospital."
"The child's life is miserable, but he is also my grandson, so I thought about doing a lot of things for him and ordering more paper."
It's normal to recognize the wrong person.
After all, every guest who enters the paper shop will subconsciously think that Uncle Chen, an elderly man, is the real boss.
And I'm no stranger to their misunderstanding.
But the question is, why did the child die again this time?
Could it be ...... Is there any ulterior connection between the two?
This time, I have to focus on it and try to get more useful information from the family!
Thinking of this, I took a deep breath and handed over the work in my hand to Ah Dong temporarily, and then I changed my face and walked up with a smile.
"Uncle, you are old and your eyes are not good, I can understand it."
"Why don't you come to the booth here first to have a look, all the samples of the paper on it are made by me, so that they can be tailored for your little grandchildren."
"After all, I can empathize with your feelings, and I once had a younger brother who unfortunately passed away when he was a year old......"
In the following time, I was good at acting, and it was time to show my acting skills.
In the end, even his eyes were red, and he was about to cry!
Ah Dong was stunned when he watched from the side, and even Uncle Chen quietly gave me a thumbs up, full of admiration.
But it doesn't matter.
The point was that the old man in the black shirt in front of him believed it, and even patted me on the shoulder to show comfort.
"Alas, young man, don't blame yourself too much, you don't look too old, you were probably still a child at the time, it's not your responsibility."
"As for my little grandson, the death was a complete accident."
"At that time, he obviously slept on the kang with his eyes closed, and he slept soundly, so I went to the kitchen to make him a cup of milk powder, but when he came back, the child had already fallen off."
The old man sighed and recalled.
And based on what he said, I can be considered to have an understanding of what happened.
It was immediately determined that there was something wrong with the child.
I was sleeping but suddenly woke up, and I could even fall to the ground, and I didn't even have any howl during the whole process, so I died quietly.
If you are a normal child, you will definitely cry first when you wake up.
No matter how bad it is, even if the child has a quiet personality, he will definitely feel pain when he falls on the ground, and he must howl!
I'm a young man in my twenties who wrestles and occasionally scolds, not to mention a babbling kid who can't even speak.
In the flash, I had a lot of mess in my head.
But thinking in my heart is one thing, and what I say and what I show on my face is another thing entirely.
"Uncle, I haven't been to school, I don't know how to say beautiful things, I advise you to mourn and change, if you really have fate, the child will definitely be reborn in your family, and he definitely doesn't want his grandfather to be too sad."
"You're right, I'm going to do his funeral now, bury him in the scenery, and then I have to live well."
Under my persuasion, this old man's mood really improved a lot.
Immediately afterwards, when he saw my paper-making skills and other paper work, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up in admiration, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered something worth tens of thousands of yuan.
It seems that this is another big customer.
I sent the person away with a smile and stood at the door to watch the other party go away.
The moment he turned around, his face changed faster than turning a book, his smile disappeared without a trace, he raised his head, and looked at Uncle Chen with heavy eyes.
"This is already the second child."
"Moreover, there is more than this paper shop in the city, or some victims may have gone to other places, and some may even have no money at home, so they simply don't engage in these things and are buried hastily."
"Uncle Chen, do you have any good solutions?"
After all, I have too little experience, and I am easy to panic when I see few things, so I can only ask for help.
Hearing this, Uncle Chen lowered his head and pondered for a moment before coming up with an idea.
"You can communicate with these two family members who came to customize paper work, and ask for their children's birthdays, maybe you can find some clues."
"yes, why didn't I think of that?!"
A word wakes up the dreamer.
After being said like this, I hurriedly picked up my mobile phone and communicated with the two people just now, casually made up a reason, and said in a straightforward tone.
Then, they successfully got their child's birth date.
I don't know much about fortune telling, and I'm afraid that I will make a mistake, so I simply handed it over to Uncle Chen.
In order to prevent people from coming in and causing unnecessary trouble, I temporarily lowered the roller shutter door of the store, closed the window at the same time, and drew the curtains.
After this move, fine beads of sweat oozed from my forehead, and the whole store became dark.
"It's too dark, let's turn the lights on."
As he spoke, I was about to turn on the light, but was stopped by a voice that shook his head at me.
So Ah Dong and I stopped the next action, sat on the chair next to us obediently, and quietly watched the movement of the counter.
Uncle Chen took out the compass in his arms, burned a yellow talisman first, and then began to measure the eight characters.
As time passed, his face became more and more embarrassed, and by the end it was as black as the bottom of an iron pot, and when he finally put down the compass, it seemed as if a great storm was brewing in the depths of his eyes.
Seeing this, I hurriedly asked, "Uncle Chen, what's wrong?" ”
