Chapter 1 Door-to-door search for corpses

Next Chapter

My name is Sun Shaoyang, and I am doing yin and yang business in a small county town in the northern mountains, and this year is the third year that Tiewa and I have run Sun's paper fire shop.

According to the old man's hexagram, on the thirteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar this year, my long-awaited daughter-in-law is about to come to the door, so today I specially got a haircut and changed into a handsome casual dress.

After breakfast, I instructed Tiewa to move a stool and sit at the door, and watch the little girl who has reached the age of twenty, and if anyone has a stubble, she must be respectfully invited in, because that person will be your sister-in-law.

Tiewa is my shop buddy, nineteen years old this year, when I first took over the paper fire shop, this kid asked for food to come to my door, I looked at his eyebrows and eyes, the ghost light in the Fude Palace flickered, he was a simple person, so he left him behind, specifically for me to help.

Speaking of my daughter-in-law, I have to mention my life experience, I was born in the provincial city of Jinling, I was abandoned on the street corner as soon as I was born, it was my godfather Sun Tianhe who picked me up, he took me back to Longshan County, Qingyuan City, and taught me the ancestral fortune-telling skills.

Grandfather Sun Tianhe is not an ordinary person, he is proficient in plum blossoms, exorcism and other mystical techniques, in the early years of Qingyuan City Feng Shui held a dragon meeting, my godfather defeated five yin and yang masters with the power of one person, and also counted the city's natural disasters in the next three years, after this war, Sun Tianhe's name was completely spread out.

In the days that followed, there was an endless stream of people who came to the door to ask for hexagrams, and the local tyrants, wealthy businessmen, and dignitaries even broke through the threshold of my family, and the godfather made more than 3,700 hexagrams in his life, and none of them were omitted, and all of them were fulfilled.

But when I was fifteen years old, my godfather's runaway son Sun Xiaofeng suddenly returned to Longshan County, that year, the godfather officially sealed the hexagram, ready to live for a long time, but the godfather never dreamed that on the third day of Uncle Sun's return, he suffocated to death on the bed.

Strange to say, the day before Uncle Sun's death, I once saw a strange scene, an old locust tree outside the courtyard was wrapped around a long black snake, the beast kept circling around the trunk, like a python torturing its prey, making people's bones chill.

After Uncle Sun's accident, I told my godfather about it, and my godfather burst into tears after hearing this, and said bitterly that he had no way to discipline him, and he shouldn't let Uncle Sun mess with Liu Xian, and he wouldn't end up being entangled in a dream.

The pain of losing a child in old age, so that the grandfather was disheartened, so he concentrated on teaching me the art of yin and yang, because I was very young to read all kinds of classics handed down by the Sun family, the remaining three years, I successfully mastered the plum blossom easy number, the Sun family physiognomy, and the Arctic exorcism of the 36 thunder charm secret technique, as well as many Taoist secret skills.

When I was eighteen years old, seeing that I had inherited the ancestral craft, and that my godfather had finally reached the day when the oil ran out, one afternoon, he called me to my room and specially instructed me three things.

First, Uncle Sun has a daughter, who was taken away from Longshan County by her divorced mother when she was very young, and on the 13th day of the seventh lunar month when I was 20 years old, this woman would come to the door to ask for help, and my godfather asked me to leave people behind, and since then I have been married for a hundred years.

Second, there are two Jedi in Longshan County, the turret in Yushupo Village and the pear orchard in Baijiahe, these two places have the wrong magnetic field and are infested with evil spirits, but on your twentieth birthday, remember not to go.

Third, Uncle Sun provoked Liu Xian, and Grandpa was worried that Liu Xian would wait for an opportunity to retaliate, so he specially exchanged a secret record from an old friend for me to carefully study and ponder how to deal with it, in case of emergency.

After explaining the three things, my godfather died, I knelt on the ground and cried, I wanted to be buried in a beautiful way, but my godfather had already had his last words, he leaked many days, and he should be wrapped in a bad mat.

Following my grandfather's last words, I hastily handled the aftermath, left the secluded small mountain village, and officially took over the Sun family's paper fire shop.

Time flies, today is the day when my grandfather's granddaughter comes to the door, I dare not slack off, and look outside the store from time to time, but unfortunately, no girl entered the store in the morning.

Just as I was joking with Tiewa in some discouragement, a beautiful woman walked in with a small red bag, her hair draped, and a pair of high heels.

"Hey, Sister Lan, what kind of rhubarb wind blew you a big beauty, Tie Wazi, go and prepare tea." After seeing Sister Lan enter the door, my eyebrows lit up, I pondered in my heart, was a little disappointed, and immediately shouted politely.

Sister Lan is Chinese New Year's Eve five years old today, opened an orchid club in the middle of Fufeng Street, running a massage and foot massage business, she has hands and eyes to the sky, and has taken in a group of dusty girls.

"No need, Xiaoyang, Sister Lan asked you to find someone today, you sister Su doesn't know which wild man she ran with, and she hasn't come back for half a month, don't you know how to tell fortunes, help me find someone, and I will be paid if I find it."

As she spoke, Sister Lan slapped a thousand yuan and a copy of her birthday on the table, and then, gently rubbing my chest, she left the paper fire shop with a gust of fragrant wind.

The person Sister Lan is looking for is named Xia Xu, one of her top brands, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, beautiful and young, the sister often asks Tiewa to help clean up the room and move things.

"Brother Yang, Sister Su hasn't shown up for half a month, I'm afraid she really ran away with someone, right?"

Tiewa touched the back of her head, Xia Xu took good care of him, and from time to time she would let him take advantage of him, so when Sister Su ran away, his heart was also blank for a while.

I coughed lightly, picked up Sister Xu's birthday and glanced at it, Ding Chou, Jiachen, Yisi, Yinshi, according to the principle of arithmetic, two hexagrams appeared in my heart.

This hexagram is the Ding hexagram, the upper and lower Xun, the fire is the soul, and the Xun is the eldest daughter, looking at the meaning of leaving the soul, the moving hexagram is four, and the hexagram is changed to the mountain wind Gu, obviously, Sister Su has the intention of being poisoned recently, and she has died.

"It's troublesome, I'm afraid Sister Su is in danger."

I shook my head and subconsciously glanced at Tiewa, Sister Lan's hope is estimated to be in vain, this is not looking for someone at all, but looking for a corpse.

Shook my head helplessly, I silently prayed for Sister Su in my heart, hoping that she could turn evil into good fortune, and then, I pressed this matter down, today my daughter-in-law is going to come to the door, and finding someone to find the body can only be postponed tomorrow.

With this in mind, I waited until dark, and at about ten o'clock in the evening, a young lady wearing a cheongsam finally walked into the paper fire shop.

Tiewa and I rushed up to meet him, and when I walked in, I was dumbfounded, the person who came was none other than the top brand that Sister Lan was looking for, Sister Su.
