Chapter Twenty-Five: Giving Shoes to the Dead

After listening to Zhang Hai's words, Du Fei ran to the Land Temple without saying a word, and he thought as he ran: "How could Li Ming die, why did he die suddenly?" Who the hell did this? ”

Du Lingyue saw that her father's face was pale and frightening, and Du Fei, who was in front of Du Lingyue's daze, had already rushed out of the yard.

Du Lingyue shouted as she ran: "Dad, slow down?" You're not in good shape, don't get too excited. ”

But Du Fei, who was running in Du Fei, couldn't listen to it at all? At this moment, he couldn't wait to come to the Land Temple immediately to see his old brother, how could he die inexplicably?

No matter how Du Fei thought about it, he couldn't figure out why Li Ming died, because Li Ming had never offended anyone in his life, and a good man usually opened the door to do business.

He had never heard of anyone he was with, there had been a quarrel or something unpleasant, and when Du Fei came to the Land Temple out of breath, he found that there were already a lot of people surrounding the door of the Land Temple.

The two big lions in front of the temple looked angrily ahead, and when they walked into the temple, there was a very huge land father-in-law, solemnly and solemnly standing on the hall.

The pillars on both sides of the lobby are engraved with words, and the words on the right pillar are: "Earth can give birth to all things", and the right pillar reads: "The earth can send a thousand auspicious".

After Du Fei arrived, he squeezed forward, until he reached Li Ming's body, when he saw Li Ming's death for the first time, Du Fei himself felt a burst of cold hands and feet inexplicably.

Because the appearance of death was too miserable, he saw Li Ming kneeling under a big tree, raising his head and his eyes wide, "No" because there were no more eyeballs in his eyes.

There are only two black hole eye sockets, and pungent viscous blood is still flowing out from the inside, and the facial expression is extremely distorted and deformed.

From this, it can be inferred that Li Ming not only saw some incomprehensible pictures before he died, but also saw something extraordinary.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for his face to be distorted and deformed, but you can imagine what Li Ming saw and experienced at that time?

Why would there be such a tragic way of death? No one knew that Du Fei noticed Li Ming's mouth again, his mouth was wide open.

It's completely possible to stuff a big steamed bun directly, and his way of dying is really incredible, as if it is a kind of ritual.

Du Fei's mind was confused, he always felt that something was wrong but he couldn't say it, anyway, he always felt that this posture was evil. "Brother Li Ming? You died so miserably? What the hell is damn you! ”

Then I only heard the sound of Du Fei constantly beating his chest. "Brother Li Ming, the eldest brother came to see you, and the two of us were still drinking and eating together yesterday? You're going to be killed today! ”

Du Fei cried and called a dead person, and then an old lady stepped forward and patted Du Fei's shoulder and said, "Don't be too sad, let's mourn and change!" People can't be resurrected after death, and there are no one in Li Ming's family who are dead, so it's better to call the relevant departments to deal with it and investigate. ”

The old man also felt a pity after speaking? Li Ming is a good man in the village, and he never offends anyone, whether it is to buy shoes for the living or for the dead.

Everyone likes to go to Li Ming, because he is a very conscientious shoemaker, and everyone thinks that this matter is really terrible.

I don't know what happened, Li Ming died, and a beggar came outside just when everyone was at a loss.

The clothes he was wearing were in tatters, and there was a stench emanating from the little beggar's body, and everyone frowned at this moment.

They all disliked that this little beggar was particularly dirty, and the little beggar didn't pay attention to everyone's boredom and unhappiness, but just came to Li Ming's side and looked at Li Ming and said:

"I know how this man died." Du Fei looked at the little beggar fiercely and said excitedly: "You know, how he died." ”

The little beggar said that he was scared to death, and at this time everyone sneered and squinted at the little beggar, "The bean sprouts are bigger, whose child is this, talking nonsense here, who was scared to death, how was he scared to death?"

"I rely on such a little beggar to eat every day by begging to eat, is it that I am too full today, and I start to talk nonsense."

"That's it, why did he say that Brother Li was scared to death, just because of his words? He thought he was an immortal, huh? It's really interesting to know the ins and outs of things by pinching your fingers. ”

"Such an older child, Tong Yan Wuji, don't listen to him talking nonsense here, let's call and report to the relevant departments to investigate."

The crowd, it was you who said a word, Du Fei only felt that his brain hurt, and then yelled at everyone, "Don't make any noise, let him finish his words." ”

The little beggar pursed his lips disapprovingly and looked at the onlookers, ignoring them, turning his head to look at Du Fei and saying. "What about last night?

I was sleeping on a tree in front of this land temple, and just as I was sleeping, I heard someone screaming loudly inside the land temple.

When I came to the Land Temple, I found that he was already dead, not scared to death or how he died. ”

What Du Fei didn't understand was that if he judged by the words of this little beggar, then why did Li Ming come to the Land Temple in the middle of the night to do something?

The little beggar looked at the crowd and continued, "You must be wondering if I'm talking nonsense! Actually, I didn't make it clear just now, you all know that Meng Zhuang had an old lady die a few days ago! ”

At this time, Wang Laohan said: "I know that an old lady surnamed Meng died of illness a few days ago, and before she died, the old lady's son came to Li Shoemaker to order shoes for her mother!" What's the matter, does this have anything to do with Li Ming's current death? ”

The little beggar sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll give you a good talk!" Otherwise, you don't know how he died until you die, because this incident itself is a suspenseful and thriller story. ”

Everyone was a little disdainful when they saw the little beggar's serious appearance, but people are like this, the more unreasonable things are, the more difficult things to explain.

It often makes many people have a strong curiosity, but no one sees the little beggar's face slightly raised and leaks a strange smile.

That smile was wicked and weird. The little boy began his story......

It turned out that one day a middle-aged man from the next village came to Li Ming's shoemaker's shop, and when the middle-aged man came in, he said, "Li shoemaker, I want to order a pair of shoes for my mother, and my mother is dying." ”

As soon as Li Ming heard this, he knew what was going on, and then asked: "What is the size and when will I take it?"

The middle-aged man said, "I don't know what size it is, why don't you come with me to my house and measure it!" ”

Li Ming didn't think much about it, then cleaned up and followed the middle-aged man to their house, and when he finished measuring the size of the old lady, Li Ming said to the middle-aged man: "When will the old lady leave, you can go to the store to pick up shoes at any time, and I will start doing it when I go back." ”

As soon as the middle-aged man heard this, he hurriedly said, "Thank you so much, Boss Li." Li Ming waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to be so polite.

When about two days later, when Li Ming was sleeping fragrantly that night, he suddenly heard someone outside calling the door: "Is Uncle Li at home?" Are my grandma's shoes ready? My grandma is no longer good, can you send the shoes over now? ”

Li Yang was woken up by a knock on the door, and then he heard someone outside calling him, when Li Ming fumbled to turn on the lights in the room.

Then he opened the door, and at this time Li Ming was dumbfounded, and there was no one outside at all, Li Ming was puzzled: "Could it be that the old lady is no longer good?" Is this sending someone to get the shoes? But what about people? Is it going back? ”

Li Ming thought of this, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible that there was a rule in their business, if any of the dead people didn't come to get the shoes, they couldn't be sent over directly.

Because it's unlucky, if you send it over, it will have the meaning of cursing people, so it's taboo to do this.

As long as the family of the deceased does not come to pick up the shoes, they will never be delivered to the door, Li Ming walked back and forth in the room, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

What to do in the end was not decided until the end. "No matter how much, it may be that there are many things to do, send someone to inform you and let yourself send your shoes over! Doesn't this affect people's shoes? ”

Because there is another rule here, that is, if a person dies, then he needs to change his shoes quickly, otherwise something bad will happen to the deceased's family.

Li Ming cleaned up, took his finished shoes and went out, the weather was very good that night, the moon was very big and round, so Li Ming didn't take any lighting utensils.

For example, flashlights and the like, after more than half an hour of walking, Li Ming finally came to the deceased's house.

When he came to the deceased's house, he found that the gates of their house were open, but strangely the courtyard was quiet, and it was a deathly silence.

At this moment, Li Ming didn't think much about it, and then shouted, "Is there anyone?" Anybody home? I'm here to deliver shoes. ”

Then he waited for a while, and heard only one man open the door, but the sound of the door opening was so heavy that it was as if it were not a door at all, but a city gate.

After the door opened, a person walked out of it, and after Li Ming saw the person clearly, he hurriedly said, "I have already made the old lady's shoes, and I have sent them to you." ”

At this time, the person who came was a little stunned and said, "Are you mistaken, my mother is not dead?" Why did you send the shoes, it's too unlucky. ”

Li Ming found that the middle-aged man in front of him seemed to be talking a little wooden, as if he had changed as a different person, because it was this man who went to Li Ming's store two days ago.

It's just that the man in front of him is walking a little mechanically and his eyes are hollow and his expression is wooden, looking at the strange feeling, "Oh! Is it? Didn't your family send someone to my house just now and ask me to deliver shoes to you? ”

"Ahh What are you talking about? Who sent someone,"

At this moment, there was a sudden crying sound in the house, the old lady was already dead, and Li Ming hurriedly handed the shoes to the middle-aged man.

Then he left without looking back, because it was too incredible and strange, Li Ming felt panicked when he thought about it, "How could this kind of thing happen?" ”

Li Ming couldn't figure it out, since he couldn't figure it out, he didn't think about it so much, so he trotted all the way to his home when he walked to the Land Temple.

He seemed to vaguely hear something in the Land Temple, and at this time, the wind was blowing in the sky, and Li Ming felt a little furious in his heart, but although he felt scared in his heart.

But he couldn't control his curiosity, and then he walked to the Land Temple step by step, and when he came to the gate of the Land Temple, he seemed to see the eyes of the two stone lions at the door of the Land Temple.

As soon as his heart tightened, he wanted to run away, but at this time, he saw through the crack in the door of the Land Temple that the lights inside the Land Temple were bright, as if it was very lively, and there were many people.

Li Ming calmed down his nervousness, and then stretched out his hand to push open the door of the Land Temple, at this moment he saw a picture that he had never seen in his life.

I only heard a miserable cry coming from Li Ming's mouth............
