My brother was startled and worried. But he heard that Lingzi would be coming soon and Uncle Li was already here, so he didn’t say anything more. In addition, this was originally the property of his grandmother’s family.

, it’s not easy to just leave it here.

Lunch was arranged by my cousin, and we went to the hotel they owned to eat. By the way, the hotel also gave us two rooms to rest in. Then my cousin said he was busy and left first. Let us take action.

He called.

Why is he busy? When I went to the bathroom after dinner, I clearly heard him saying in the corridor, "You take a shower first and wait for me in bed." This is called busy, so he is really busier than the President of the country.

Already.

My cousin came over at five or six in the afternoon, and he was covered in dust. After he took a shower, when I went to their room to gather, I saw him drying his hair and saying, "Li

Uncle, hurry up and find a bunch of boys and girls. They should be around twelve or thirteen years old. They are too young to walk such a long distance. We have to deal with it tonight or later, otherwise we don’t know what will happen tomorrow.

Damn it, I almost paid for it."

I quickly asked what happened and how the situation was over there.

The cousin said that before the cremation, he spent a lot of effort to get rid of everyone and pull out the remaining soul of the body before it was put into the furnace.

That was not the remaining soul at all, but the child. He had no idea that his mother was dead and still sleeping. To put it bluntly, if he had had a knife at that time, he would have directly cut open the belly of the pregnant woman, and then

If the soul is attracted, the fetus may still survive. He is just pretending to be dead in the body of the pregnant woman.

It's just that after the hospital determined that the pregnant woman was dead, there was no movement in the fetal heart rate monitoring, so it was taken away as a corpse. If a crazy doctor comes and is willing to let this seven-month-old child be taken out for a look and rescue, maybe it can be saved.

Can survive.

But who dares to take responsibility for such a thing?

But now, it has been three dynasties, and the child's soul has been pulled out. He is sitting on the belly of the corpse and crying for his mother. If it is evening, when the kid goes out, the kid's mother has not appeared yet.

, then the little ghost may become a baby spirit. We must send the child back to her mother before her heart changes.

Where is his mother? She's still in the lake! The owners can hear someone calling for baby by the lake at night. Then the mother can't find the baby and is worried. The mother is very powerful. If you drag her on, she

If you become anxious and become a serious ghost, it will be difficult to deal with.

I also asked, why would she, a pregnant woman, not think about jumping into the river? With such great resentment, why didn’t she die and become a ghost immediately?

Uncle Li said: "When a person is gone, the soul has just left the body and is in a daze. She only remembers the most important things. The most important thing for her now is her child. After the first seven days, she will be able to remember everything.

, if you confirm that you are dead, you will really become a ghost. Even if we can't solve it tonight, we must let her see her child within the first seven days."

After Uncle Li finished speaking, he looked at his cousin and said, "Let the yellow chicken lead the way."

"No, the child's soul has deteriorated. I even wiped the cow's tears specially, but my two little arms can't hold the chicken wings."

I said: "Then use the locust wood sign to bring him over directly."

"He was on guard in his heart. I couldn't even get close to him. I just asked the boys and girls to lead the way. That would be safer and more feasible."

"Then we definitely won't be able to do it tonight. It's already past six o'clock. How can I ask two 12 or 13-year-old kids to come over? It's still such a long way to walk. How many kids can walk it?

It’s finished.”

I said, "Even if there are qualified candidates, their parents may not be willing to do it." Anyway, if it were my child, I would never let him take this risk.

Uncle Li lit up the cigarette, glanced at me, then lowered his head and said, "You don't understand. If you give me more money, some people will let their children do it."

When Uncle Li said what he said, my face became hot and I was ashamed. Although I grew up in a working-class family and had plenty of food and clothing and never suffered any hardship, I have seen a lot of things in the past two years.

When I first wrote romance novels, I wrote that the heroine’s family was very poor and could hardly eat meat once or twice a week. Some relatives commented that it was impossible in this society. But I actually saw a woman in rags at the vegetable market.

A man, holding his one- or two-year-old child in his arms, was selling chicken oil for one dollar at a chicken stall. He said he had no money to sell meat and asked the boss to give him more chicken oil to stir-fry vegetables.

For a family like this, if we were given a thousand or a few hundred dollars, they would probably let their children stay with us for one night.

My cousin suddenly said: "There are boys and girls. The children of the workers at the construction site over there are about... ** years old. Anyway, they are in elementary school. There are quite a few of them."

"I'm not good at ** years old, I'm not sensible, and I don't know the seriousness of the matter. If I don't do it well, I will suffer." Uncle Li took a breath and said, "Let me make a few calls to check."

After all, Uncle Li has been in this business much longer than us and knows many more people than we do. We waited on the sidelines while he made several calls, but they were all rejected. In the end, two people agreed to come.

One of the children is from Uncle Li's town, and the other is from another city.

Then we divided the tasks. Uncle Li and his apprentice drove their own car back to town to pick up the child. My cousin went to Lingyi City to pick up another child. My cousin has been driving my car these days. He took me

Go to the funeral parlor first. Uncle Li and his cousin received the people and went directly to the funeral parlor to gather.

During dinner, my cousin called me and said that we would continue eating at the hotel. When he called us, we had already eaten in the car with our lunch boxes. We would start work immediately after eating.

Estimating the time and getting ready to receive people, it's already nine or ten o'clock.

This was the second time I went to a funeral parlor late at night. However, the funeral parlor was still so scary. I always felt it was spooky and spooky. It was perfect for filming a ghost movie.

After parking the car, my cousin walked to the morgue in a familiar manner. I quickly grabbed his arm and looked around in panic.

Because my cousin is now the official Taoist priest here, taking over from Lao Song, so we walked in more openly this time. The old man at the gate was still drunk and fell asleep, so my cousin climbed in by himself.

What about the electric switch?

The door to the morgue was opened by my cousin with a key. I still remember the red line next to the door. But I didn't want to go in unless it was necessary.

The cousin hesitated for a moment, closed the door again, and said, "Let's get ready first." He turned to the room on the other side.

In a place like this, I could only follow him closely. Due to the taboo of not talking to people during the day and not talking to ghosts at night, I didn't speak. I watched him take out a lot of incense, and also

There are two pieces of red cloth. These items are indispensable in funeral parlors. Funeral parlors also make money by selling these.

I lowered my voice and said, "Does this count as stealing?"

My cousin rolled his eyes at me: "I'm here to help, but I can save them more incense and candles than Lao Song."

Everything was ready, and then it was time to wait. It always looked so scary here, so the two of us chose to go to the car and wait. During this period, my brother called me. After confirming the safety, he told me that the baby was very well behaved and was already in the car.

I went to sleep. This also made me feel at ease a lot.

At nine o'clock, Uncle Li called first and asked us to open the gate. Uncle Li got off the car first, followed by his apprentice carrying large and small bags, and finally followed by a boy about 1.5 meters to 1.6 meters tall.

He looks quite tall, but his face is still green. He looks like a child in sixth grade or first grade.

Uncle Li said: "He is a child in our village who helps to clear the way for funerals. You can feel free to do this."

That was the boy who helped light the cannons before the funeral. Such boys have seen many things and are not afraid anymore.

After a while, my cousin's car also came over. As soon as he got out of the car, he shouted: "There's a traffic jam, there's still time."

The girl who followed him out of the car must be a girl who is over 1.6 meters tall. Anyway, today I am wearing low-heeled shoes, so she seems to be a little taller than me. Judging from her appearance, she should still be a student. She is just too tall.

, very thin, looking malnourished.

The cousin pulled Uncle Li over and lowered his voice: "Uncle Li, are you sure this girl is a virgin? What if she's not a virgin?"

"She's only in the second grade of junior high school. She's just a little taller. She's still small. By the way, it can take five or six hours to walk from here to that community. Children who are too young can't walk.

If we stop walking halfway and cause trouble, the matter will be even bigger."

"It would be a big deal if we are not in the right place."

"What are you thinking about? What can a child who is only in the second grade of junior high school do?"

My cousin looked at me and his voice became even lower: "My sister married my brother when she was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Today's women, elementary school students will fall in love, junior high school students will get pregnant, and high school students..."

I kicked him over with a kick: "What nonsense are you talking about?" I snapped. Why did this kind of thing involve me? "Why are you fifteen or sixteen years old? I was at least in high school at that time. Humph!" Oops!

Why should I explain this? How old I am is none of their business!

Everyone is here, so it must continue.

The cousin took out a red cloth, which is the kind of red cloth used in mourning. Each of the two children had one tied around their waists. This was to protect them. It is said that the red cloth used in mourning is also

It has the meaning of exorcising evil spirits. But it itself is yin, so it is best to use it at a time like tonight, when you can't scare the little ghosts and you have to protect the two children.

My cousin took us to the morgue, opened the door, and temporarily removed the red line at the door. Uncle Li was also giving psychological counseling to the child, telling him to be calm, to do what he was asked to do, and not to act willfully.

It's very serious. In short, it's like a master's attitude.
