After all the ingots were unloaded, the two boys got in the car, and the girl walked up to Cai Gen,
"Brother Cai, we have everything. My name is Chen Mei. Give me the road guide that Wang Nai gave you."
Cai Gen handed over the paper bag given by the master, and the girl skillfully opened it and took out a piece of yellow paper filled with words inside.
He took the yellow paper and looked at it. Yes, he took out a white paper from his pocket and handed it to Cai Gen.
"Brother Cai, as soon as I light the fire, just recite it. If the fire is not extinguished, don't stop and recite it again and again."
Cai Gen looked at the words on the paper, which were still relatively clear under the street lights.
"I, so-and-so, will eliminate my karma and pay off my debts today.
The enemy creditor in the south collects ingots,
The enemy creditor in the north collects ingots,
Enemy creditors in the west, collecting ingots,
Enemies and creditors in the east collect ingots.
From now on, everyone owes nothing to each other, bless me and bring good luck."
It's all in vernacular, there are no spells or anything like that, it's a printed version, and it looks like it's the same process every time.
Standing in the square and reading these words, I felt a little ashamed, but my wife told me to be obedient, otherwise my money would be wasted.
When he thought about the money wasted in vain, Cai Gen became concerned and must cooperate and not spend money in vain.
Chen Mei divided the ingots into four even piles, placed a few bundles of incense on each pile, and began to light the yellow paper given by the master.
At first I squatted there and lit it with a match, but it couldn't light it.
Chen Mei was a little annoyed. This situation was very embarrassing and seemed unprofessional. She ran back to the car and asked for a lighter. When she came back to light it, she still couldn't light it. The flame went out as soon as it touched the yellow paper.
The weather was very good at night and there was no wind, but the lighter was blown out like that.
After trying several times, Chen Mei looked at Cai Gen and began to suspect that today's job might be unusual.
Returning to the car again, she took a windproof lighter and lit it this time. Chen Mei started chanting and signaled Cai Gen to start reading the words on the paper.
Then, all four piles of ingots were ignited. The flames were so high that the tops glowed brilliantly, making people's faces feel warm.
Cai Gen didn't look at the fire, and quickly started reading on the white paper, once, twice, three times, ten times, eleven times
Has this ingot been burned so well? It has been burned more than ten times, but the flame has not diminished. How long will it take to recite it?
Chen Mei also discovered something strange. Under normal circumstances, even one million yuanbao would be burned out after such a long time. What happened to the one hundred thousand yuanbao?
The intensity of the fire has not diminished at all, and has a tendency to burn even more intensely.
The little girl Chen Mei felt a little unsure, as if she regretted taking this job. She slowly backed away, getting closer and closer to the car.
Cai Gen was also retreating, and while he was reading, he was retreating, and for no other reason, he felt a little embarrassed.
Cai Gen couldn't remember whether it was twenty or thirty times. His throat was really dry and uncomfortable, so he looked at Chen Mei beside him.
Chen Mei looked straight at the fire. Cai Gen couldn't make eye contact with Chen Mei, and he didn't know if talking would violate taboos, so he also looked at the fire. At this sight, his eyes straightened.
The four piles of fire were really burning more and more intensely. Only the upper layer of the ingots was ignited, but the ones below were not burned at all. What is the principle behind this?
As if this was not strange enough, what made Cai Gen's eyes dizzy was that there were many white shadows appearing in the square, many of them, as if they were standing in a row and walking in goose steps, one after another.
When he came to the four fires, he did not take anything from the fire, but added something to the fire. After adding things, he looked at Cai Gen with a pleading look, and then left, leaving the space to the people who came after him.
What are they praying to themselves? Who is whose enemy and creditor? I am here to repay the debt, not to collect it. What does this mean when the fire is getting stronger and stronger?
Cai Gen's understanding ability couldn't keep up. Cai Gen was confused and wanted to take out his mobile phone to call his wife for consultation. He was afraid that speaking would disrupt Bai Ying's rhythm, so he could only watch. Could he still be burning all night?
Furthermore, what do their pleading looks mean? Should I say something? But I have already said a lot just now, and I read it according to the script.
Time passed by second by second, and the first one to collapse was Chen Mei. She couldn't wait any longer. She was just here to deliver goods and set fire, but she had never encountered such a situation.
She had no idea, so she hurriedly said to Cai Gen,
"Cai, Brother Cai, we can't take on your job anymore. I'm leaving first."
Then, without waiting for an answer, Cai Gen ran to the car, started the car, and disappeared at the end of the road.
After Cai Gen heard this, he shouted at the car shadow
"Xiao Chen, the money hasn't been given to you yet?"
After shouting, the car shadow had long since disappeared.
How about I leave too? But my wife said, if you don’t finish it, the money will be wasted. It must be finished.
There was a change in front of the fire. Some white shadows did not leave and continued to find things to fill in the fire.
Some white figures went to other people who were burning things, took electrical appliances, furniture, etc. from the fire and added to the fire in front of Cai Gen.
Later, it seemed that there was really nothing left. Those white figures went to the Taiping Temple to move things. Each white figure took out a handful, as if the spirit of the temple was emptied out. The newly built house looked a bit dilapidated.
Solemn and angry.
A shout came from the Taiping Temple,
"What kind of evildoer is causing harm to the world? Do you think that the God of Earth is just a decoration?"
In the square, the other people burning things probably didn't hear anything and were still continuing their work.
But Cai Gen heard it, there are monsters here? Where are they? Are these white shadows monsters?
Aren't these express delivery from the underworld? How did they become monsters?
Those white shadows also heard it, and although they were reluctant to leave, they quickly disappeared into the square.
Well, fortunately, the monsters have all run away.
As the white shadows disappeared, Cai Gen's pile of ingots began to burn normally, and the fire was not as strong as before.
Cai Gen thought to himself that he must be a righteous man who solved strange things with just one voice. He should finish the burning and go back to the store. There might be a big job in transshipment tonight.
Before the ingot was burned, a big fat man came out of the Taiping Temple. He was dressed in a retro style, but he was really fat. He was white and fat. He came to Cai Gen in a few steps and took the ingot with one kick.
The fire was stamped out and he continued to yell angrily at Cai Gen,
"Monster, you are so brave. First you hurt the office staff of the underworld, and then you came to mess up the place with me, Fu Zhengshen. You are so brave."
Cai Gen looked around him. There was no one else around. Could he be talking about himself? Am I a monster?
At this time, another voice sounded, very sharp and familiar,
"Brother Tu Tu, this is the monster I just told you about. He has an evil spirit in his body. The evil spirit of primitive people is very powerful. I was injured by him."
Cai Gen looked along the sound, and sure enough, one arm of Xie An'an, holding his son Xiaoqi, appeared behind the fat man, looking at him bitterly, as if he had thrown their child into the well.
