This was a woman's cough. When we heard the sound, Fatty Wu and I both turned our heads and looked towards the place where the sound came from. We saw a door there. The door was ajar and we couldn't see inside, but there should be a room inside.
.
There was someone in the room, which I didn't feel! Apart from the three of us, I really didn't find anyone else in the room. Seeing this, the boss quickly got up and walked towards the door. He closed the door.
He glanced at me warily, and then said, "That's my wife in the house! She's not in good health, so it's not convenient to see guests."
"You're not feeling well? What's wrong? Is it a real illness or a weak illness? If it's a real illness, take it to the hospital for a checkup. If it's a virtual illness, you can let Mr. Li take a look." Fatty Wu said carelessly.
, a warm-hearted look.
The boss shook his head with an ugly face and said, "No, it's a real illness. We went to the hospital to see it. After the hospital treated it, we were asked to take it home! Go home and nurse yourself back to health. It should be fine after a while."
Fatty Wu wanted to say something else, but I stopped him!
I brought the topic back to the topic, looked at the boss and asked, "By the way, boss! Did someone come to you to buy a paper figurine half a month ago? A young Taoist priest!"
The boss thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, he came with Fang Hong, saying he was here to do business for Mr. Fang's family. The Fang family's affairs are really evil. I heard that Mr. Fang's mother was eaten by a chicken.
"
The town is not big, and most of the people living in it are relatives and friends. It is normal for something like this to happen and become known to every household.
Looking at the boss, he probably wanted to gossip with us. Following his words, I asked, "Boss, you should be from here, right?"
The boss nodded and said, "Yes, we are natives. Our family has lived here for many generations."
"Then, has anything like this happened here before? A chicken eating a human!"
The boss shook his head and said, "I don't know about this. Although I have lived here for many years, I have never heard of anything like this."
I nodded slightly and continued to ask, "So, do you think chickens can really eat people?"
The boss hesitated for a moment, then said, "I don't know, but I think it's unlikely. It would be too exaggerated to say that Mr. Fang's mother was still alive and eaten alive by chickens. After all, chickens are not big.
Although it is indeed an omnivore and will eat anything, I think it is unlikely that it would dare to attack a living person! Unless Mr. Fang’s mother suddenly suffered from some disease and was already dead when she was eaten by a chicken."
The boss really answered my questions seriously and thought about this matter very seriously!
"You two, are you here to do business for the Fang family?"
I nodded without thinking and said, "Yes, I'm here to do errands for the Fang family! The Taoist priest who came to you last time to buy paper figurines was my friend, and he disappeared. This time I came here, in addition to doing errands for the Fang family.
I'm looking for my friend. I came to you just to ask him what kind of paper figurine he bought?"
When the boss heard this, he frowned and said, "You two, don't you suspect it's me?"
"No, how could it be? I just wanted to ask him what kind of paper figurine he bought so that I could analyze his situation."
He groaned, patted his chest and said, "That's it, it scared me to death. I thought the suspicion was on me. Mr. Li, to be honest with you, the Taoist Priest didn't buy the paper figurine I made.
He bought a few pieces of paper and took them back. You probably thought I couldn’t fold the paper figures well, so you took them back and folded them yourself.”
This is true. Although the paper figures made by the boss are all lifelike, they lack a bit of flexibility! It is not easy to use such paper figures to summon the soul.
"Besides paper, did he buy anything else?"
The boss shook his head and said, "No more! I just bought a few pieces of paper..."
"Cough cough cough..."
As the boss's voice fell, there were several more coughs in the room. This time I didn't look there, I just stared at the boss! Hearing the cough, the boss looked very nervous and stared straight at him.
in that position.
"Okay, boss, let's start taking care of things. It's already dark now."
The boss nodded and then got up to prepare those things. When he got up to leave, Fatty Wu looked at the door and asked, "Mr. Li, do you think this boss is hiding something from us?"
Also, he gets very nervous when he hears a cough in the room. Do you think the people in that room are abnormal?"
Of course I discovered it, so I said to Fatty Wu, "When I perform rituals for him later, you can find a chance to go and have a look! See if the person in that room is his wife."
"real?"
I nodded and said, "Of course it's true."
In fact, I am also a little curious about what is in that room. Based on my intuition, I feel that it is not the boss’s wife. As for what it is, I don’t know...
After a while, the ritual started. The boss brought a pound of white rice, two sticks of incense, three copper coins, and four cups of tea. After everything was ready, I started to scatter the white rice on the ground and formed a spiritual gathering array.
.
White Rice Gathering Array, I have done this before. After setting up the Spirit Gathering Array, I lit the two sticks of incense! Then I placed three copper coins in the Spirit Gathering Array, and then I placed the four cups of tea
It was laid out as a road.
After placing everything, I asked the boss for a stack of paper and a paper tie! While burning the paper, I read: "One poke of white rice gathers wandering souls, two pillars of fragrance create yin and yang, three copper coins send you away, four
A cup of hot tea to worship heaven and earth! Do not let the wandering souls of the past stay. The fragrance will send you to the reincarnation. Take the copper coins and set off on the road. The hot tea will make the road smooth. I serve the Supreme Lord as urgent as the law."
After I finished reciting, I burned the paper figurine to him again. While burning me, I said, "She will be your wife from now on. Take your wife with you wherever you come from!"
Then I saw the guy with only half a head coming over. He hugged the paper man I burned again very excitedly! Then he walked into the spirit gathering array and picked up the copper coins. At the same time, I thought about the past life.
curse.
Ten minutes later, the ritual was completed!
When I finished the ritual, Fatty Wu, who had just taken advantage of the break to go to the toilet, also walked out of the house.
Fatty Wu was no longer smiling like before, he was now full of fear...
I don’t know what he saw, but it must be the things in the boss’s house that frightened him like this. The boss didn’t seem to notice anything unusual, and was still saying thank you to me. We said goodbye to him and left here. He said
They offered us money, but I refused.
After leaving the boss's house for a while, Fatty Wu told me what he had just seen. "Mr. Li, I think the boss is too weird. There is no wife in his room at all, only a black coffin..." This
