Chapter 19 Chang Lao San
The car that collects the body is a hearse, which is parked in the square of the funeral home.
A large black loaf of bread with a big word "spirit" on the glass on both sides.
Once in the car, I looked at the contents of the document bag.
Body-collection handbook, funeral home work card, body confirmation form, receipt slip and address slip.
I'm not in a hurry for a while, I read the corpse collection manual first.
It briefly introduces the process of collecting corpses and the various tools used to collect corpses.
Including protective clothing, body bags, shovels, suction machines, mahogany nails, hemp rope, etc.
Looking at it this way, I found that this collection of corpses was really not as simple as I imagined.
As far as tools are concerned, there are more than a dozen or twenty kinds.
It can cope with corpses and even dirty things in various situations.
In addition to taking a closer look at the collection manual, as well as the tools in the toolbox.
I briefly glanced at the rest of the documents.
Judging from the fact sheet.
The body to be collected this time was a body drowned in the river, a small pier more than fifty miles away from the funeral home.
Once I was ready and had determined the location for the body, I started the car.
Because the driver's license is taken when I go to school, I don't drive it much on weekdays.
Along the way, I drove more cautiously and not fast.
So by the time I got to the place, it was already evening.
On the edge of the pier, there was a cordon, and there were three people standing, but they didn't see the corpses.
I parked the car, put on my work ID, and opened the door with white gloves.
As soon as he arrived outside, a middle-aged man wearing a cadre uniform and a thin figure greeted him.
However, when this middle-aged man saw my face, he didn't greet me immediately, but glanced into the car.
After seeing that I was alone, I frowned slightly.
Then he asked tentatively:
"Phoenix Mountain Funeral Home?"
I saw this middle-aged man dressed like an official family member.
It's like the head here, and the work card is lit up:
"Yes, I'm here to collect the body, where is the body?"
I looked left and right several times, but I didn't see a body on this pier.
However, in the river not far away, I saw a little white floating debris.
As the water rises and falls, a buoy is placed next to it as a warning.
Looking, it's a bit like a corpse......
And this middle-aged man was very disdainful of my move to show my work card.
He didn't even look at it, but grinned with a hint of contempt:
"Little brother, forget it! You can't collect this corpse, go home and wash it, and go to bed early. ”
With that, he turned around and walked towards the other two.
At the same time, he said with resentment:
"What do they think, send a new person over, he can't collect this corpse, the second child continues to call Pavilion Director Tie."
When I heard that, I wasn't happy.
What happened to the newcomer?
And I, a newcomer, have learned a lot of ways to ward off evil spirits and exorcise evil spirits.
I didn't even confiscate the body, and he said I couldn't collect it?
I walked straight up:
"Hey! I haven't even confiscated the body, how do you know I can't collect it? ”
As soon as these words came out, the three people on the other side all turned their heads to look at me.
The thin middle-aged man turned his head.
Fingers pinched the cigarette, squinted at me, and took a sharp puff of the flue:
"Little brother, this is a hard-working business, no jokes.
I've been in this business for more than 20 years.
Dozens of corpses have been seen.
Who is called to collect the corpse, who can collect it, I know better than anyone else in this Nangang City.
In your Phoenix Mountain Funeral Parlor, there are only two or three people who can accept this corpse.
Don't talk about you as a newcomer.
Even if the burner Liu of your pavilion comes, he may not be able to bear it. ”
This guy who calls himself Chang Laosan seems to know our funeral home very well.
It also hints that this "corpse" is dangerous, and I don't have that ability.
But this order was personally assigned by the curator to make it.
It shows that the curator let me come on the premise that he knew that there was a risk to the corpse.
It's testing me.
And coming to the Phoenix Mountain Funeral Home is a tip from the godfather.
It shows that there must be something different here, and it must be stayed.
If you fail to complete the task on the first day, you may not only fail to complete the task assigned by the curator, but also leave a bad impression and risk being fired.
More importantly, if the body is not recovered, there will be no performance.
I get a commission for this work, and the more I collect, the more I earn.
Starve the faint-hearted, and support the bold.
I have Sister Bai's tiger claws on my body to defend myself, and I have a charm in my pocket, what am I afraid of?
Moreover, I haven't seen any corpses, so it's not certain whether I can accept them.
So I spoke again:
"Brother Chang, everyone is very busy, don't delay time.
Whether this corpse can be collected or not, I will only know after trying it.
And I'll leave you here.
Don't say he's a corpse, even if he's a ghost, the master can arrange it for him tonight. ”
Seeing that I was neither humble nor arrogant, and full of confidence, Chang Laosan also looked at me more.
And the two people standing next to him also whispered in his ear.
Say, it's kind of bluffing to look at me.
Let me give it a try, it's getting late after all.
If you ask the funeral home to send someone over, you will have to wait for more than an hour.
Chang Laosan was stunned for a moment, then snuffed out the cigarette butt and said:
"Little brother, have guts!
The corpse was floating there......
But to tell you the truth, the corpse has its eyes open, its mouth open, and its face up.
I went to three fishermen, and no one could pull her ashore.
There were even two fishermen who were planted in the river.
He is still unconscious in the hospital.
If you're not afraid of death, give it a try.
As long as you can drag the body ashore.
This time, I will add 5,000 more to you, and I will compensate you.
But if you kid is a good one, you won't be able to get up if you fall into the water.
Hmph, you deserve it.
Don't blame me for not reminding you ......"
