Chapter 18 Cemetery
When we left Wanfu Hall, it was already half past three in the afternoon.
It's still early before dark, but I don't want to waste any time.
I bought a bottle of mineral water at the nearby store, called a taxi, and went directly to Nanshan Cemetery.
The drive that originally took more than an hour took more than two hours due to traffic jams.
By the time I arrived at Nanshan Cemetery, it was already past six in the afternoon.
It's about half an hour until dark.
In front of you is Nanshan Cemetery.
The main gate archway is very grand and solemn, with white pillars, green tiles, and dragon and phoenix carvings.
Smooth and symmetrical.
On the left and right sides, there are couplets carved in stone and made of gold pen.
First couplet: A turtle and a crane live longer than a thousand years
Second couplet; descendants of Fuyin, Sun Xian
Horizontal criticism; good luck and longevity
Behind the gate archway is a white tombstone, layer by layer, stretching to the top of the mountain.
The cemetery is very large.
Now coming in and out, many people came here to pay homage to their deceased relatives.
The cemetery is shady, and except for the sun that shines at noon, the rest of the day is shrouded in shadow.
As soon as I arrived here, I shivered and felt cold.
In addition, I was surrounded by dirty things during this period, and I was very resistant to this kind of place.
If possible, I really don't want to come to this kind of place.
But there was really no choice but to bite the bullet and walk to the cemetery.
Because I don’t know the exact location of Rose Supermarket, and the cemetery is huge.
I'm afraid that I won't be able to find a place after entering and will waste time wandering around inside.
After arriving at the gate, he asked the security guard on duty:
"Uncle, where is the Rose Supermarket?"
The security uncle is sitting in the booth watching videos.
Suddenly hearing my question, he turned his head with some confusion:
"What supermarket are you looking for?"
"Rose Supermarket opens in your cemetery."
I said very seriously.
But the security guard had a strange expression on his face, his face twitching, and he looked me up and down:
"Are you sure you came to the right place? This is the cemetery."
When he asked, I was a little confused.
Master Gu said that Rose Supermarket is located in Nanshan Cemetery.
It was also clearly stated that the supermarket is only open in the evening.
This uncle works as a security guard here, doesn’t he know?
"Uncle, I came to the right place. It's Nanshan Cemetery. Don't you know there is a rose supermarket in the cemetery?"
I asked with a confused look on my face.
As a result, the security guard rolled his eyes at me:
"This is a cemetery, a cemetery, a place where the dead are buried.
Who goes to the cemetery to open a supermarket after eating enough? Selling ghosts?
I have been working as a security guard at Nanshan Cemetery for ten years, but I have never heard of a Rose Supermarket.
There is a canteen in Nanshan, turn left after entering."
After saying that, the security guard closed the sliding window rudely and muttered a few words.
It seems like you are calling me stupid.
He continued to cross his legs, leaning on the chair and watching TV series on his mobile phone.
I stood outside the window awkwardly.
There was a strange feeling in my heart.
I even began to wonder if Master Gu had said something wrong?
At this glance, apart from the dense tombstones, there were indeed no buildings such as houses.
Moreover, the security guard who has worked here for ten years does not know Rose Supermarket.
Does this place really exist?
I was a little confused, so I found two aunts who were cleaning the cemetery and asked.
The results are the same.
In this cemetery, except for the small shop at the entrance.
Not to mention supermarkets, there are no street stalls nearby, let alone any supermarket in the cemetery.
The cleaning lady kindly reminded me that it would be getting dark now.
The area around the cemetery is not clean. Please don't wander around the cemetery. It's easy to get lost...
After saying that, the two cleaning ladies carried their small bags and left work.
I stayed where I was, looking dull.
Who should I trust now?
I was leaving in a hurry today, and I forgot to leave Master Gu’s phone number.
Brother Chen’s phone is also turned off.
Now I want to ask, it is not possible to re-determine the address.
If you go back by car and ask, then go out to buy rice and eggs.
Then I went to the Longgang Mountain City God’s Temple to sell it, but I would definitely be too late in time.
I covered my head and kept thinking about Master Gu's words.
However, I don't think I remembered it wrong.
It can even be clearly determined that what Master Gu was talking about at that time was in the Nanshan Cemetery.
He also said that Rose Supermarket only opens after dark.
After I bought rice and eggs, I was told to hurry up and hurry up. I must go to the temple at ten o'clock...
Could it be that the security uncle and the cleaning lady lied to me?
Master Gu is lying to me?
Or are they not lying to me?
Since this rose supermarket is opened in such a large cemetery, it must have something extraordinary about it.
My brows knitted together tightly, and I felt very uneasy.
I was in a dilemma for a while.
Should I immediately take a ride back to Wanfutang and ask for the address again?
Or should you stay and search for yourself?
It's starting to get dark now, and I don't have much time.
I stayed there for a few minutes, then took a sip of mineral water and threw the bottle aside.
"Chucha" sound.
He gritted his teeth and planned to believe what Master Gu said.
Even if he died in Nanshan Cemetery, he would admit it.
I thought to myself and took a long breath.
He lifted his feet and walked towards the cemetery...
