I don't know this person, but Liu Yang knows him. When I picked Liu Yang up in the evening, Li Xiaohuan had already prepared dinner.
I told Liu Yang about the man who came to dig up the house.
"The eldest Liu family member in Chi County, I think, and there is also a second Liu. They are miners, copper miners, rich and domineering. Don't mess with them. Since they are offering 100,000 taels, just give them the taels."
"But there are rules. Don't get the injection unless the person is dead. It would be bad for their family and it would not be good for me either."
"If it's not that serious, then just give him a shot, because the eldest and second sons of the Liu family are not to be trifled with, not to mention giving his father a shot. Although the two are not very good, they are filial sons."
I thought, since this is the case and we can't afford to offend him, we might as well get the injection. I don't know what will happen after that.
I still told Liu Shougui about it. I was also afraid of such things.
"This is a fatal blow. There is no other way. You have to do it. I will come over to help you tomorrow."
When Liu Shougui came the next day, the eldest head of the Liu family came with him. That person was from a wealthy family. I frowned because that was Fu Jiao, an old lady.
"You don't need to look for anyone else. Just deposit the money into this card and I'll give you the injection. You can withdraw the money in a month."
"That's right, brother, if that's the case, we can be friends."
They walked away showing off, and I cursed them in my heart, saying, "What idiots! It's not the right way to show off."
I prepared the materials. I had never done such a big job before. It was just that when I was learning from He Ping, I built the house and the big frame. I looked at the drawings and started to work. Liu Shougui just helped me, sat beside me drinking tea, watching me work, and closed his eyes and took a nap when he was tired.
In fact, I also long to achieve some results. As for paper-making, it is definitely a craft that not everyone can do.
But regarding He Ping's death, I really don't understand why he chose to do that? I can't figure it out. Liu Shougui said that he already knew the day of his death. I don't quite understand this either. The death of He Dana was also like this. These people can predict it, or people have this feeling before they die, and there will be abnormal behavior, but not everyone has this. I have never had it.
This is my first time to make a big card, so it is still a bit difficult. But looking at the book left by Master He Ping and the pictures on it, it is very clear.
Liu Shougui just sat there looking at me every day. He said he was helping me, but I think he was just talking.
But no matter what, I feel a lot more at ease when he sits here.
It took more than 20 days of work to see the results. Liu Shougui said, "I am not cut out for this job. I don't think I'm good enough. I always feel that I'm not good enough and that I may never reach the level of Master He Ping's ability to make people walk and ghosts come back to life."
I am not satisfied with my work, but apart from He Ping, I think no one in this Chi County can do it better than me. He Ping once said that my work is unmatched in the province, not to mention the whole country. I have inherited He Ping's true teachings. I am his godson and I am here to see him off to his grave.
I have not forgotten to leave some flaws. Maybe the work has many shortcomings, but if you pursue perfection, then there will be no flaws. The flaws are left by myself.
On the day we finished, Liu Shougui and I were drinking in the yard. Liu Yang said that the house was so beautiful. Li Xiaohuan actually wanted to go in and take a look. When I told her about it, she stuck out her tongue and stood aside without saying a word.
It was past nine o'clock. Liu Yang and Li Xiaohuan were watching TV in the house when someone knocked on the door. That's how work is. Sometimes people come to order work in the middle of the night. Some are urgent and need to be finished before dawn. You have to do it. That's how this job is.
I opened the door and saw a man standing there, one eye was empty and the other was open, and it was also very small. I frowned. He didn't say anything, but actually came in. People who come here are all very strange. If he doesn't want to say anything, then he would have locked the door himself, then sat down at the table and poured himself a glass of wine.
"Master Liu, Master Ke, I'm here today for another thing. To make a deal. Of course, it's a big deal."
This person spoke a little hoarsely, especially his sunken eye, which made me feel very uncomfortable.
Liu Shougui glanced at me, and I had no idea what that meant.
"I only do business here, I don't do any other business."
"Of course I know that."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and looked at the villa that had been built.
"Very beautiful, really. Even in China, there are probably not many hands like this. Master Ke, you are amazing."
He knows Liu Shougui and I, but we don’t know who he is. This is what’s scary.
"you say."
Liu Shougui said.
"I want to put something in this room. Of course, I will pay for it."
"Put something there?"
"Yes, I know this is for my hometown."
As soon as I heard it, I understood that if something was put there, it couldn't be a good thing. Building a room and putting things in it is the same as building a yang house. It pays attention to feng shui. There are thirty-six things to pay attention to when building a room, and none of these thirty-six things can be violated. Otherwise, it will be unlucky for the owner, who may suffer illness at the very least and death at the worst.
Of course, the stab master has the trick of stabbing, which you can't play with. No matter what you do, even if your enemy comes to stab you, you can't play dirty.
"I'm sorry, but I don't do this kind of business."
"Don't worry, I will slowly convince you until dawn. If I still can't convince you by dawn, then I will give up."
I felt a little sad. It seemed that this person would not stop until he achieved his goal.
No matter what he says, I won't do it. Although the Liu family's character is not very good, I will not harm anyone. This is Zade.
“It’s a thing.”
The man stole something from his bosom, wrapped it in leather, and pushed it to me.
I shook my head.
"Let's see first."
I know that it is something that tempts me. If it can tempt me, I think it should not be something that can be easily obtained.
I glanced at Liu Shougui.
"Then open it and take a look. Or, we can make a deal."
I am very unhappy with Liu Shougui's behavior which has no moral bottom line.
Liu Shougui has a bottom line in life, but he has no bottom line in life, which makes me uncomfortable.
I opened the leather and something came out from inside. I was stunned and Liu Shougui was also surprised.
It was a piece of bone, bluish-white in color, exuding a bone fragrance.
I looked at Liu Shougui and realized that I was indeed made of human bones, but human bones gave off a fragrance, which was really strange.
"This belongs to Chen Yuanyuan. Wu Sangui was furious for his beloved. After Chen Yuanyuan's death, the fragrance of her bones spread ten miles away. This is Chen Yuanyuan's bones. I won't tell you what these bones are used for. I think you, Master Liu, know best."
I was stunned. Of course, I didn't believe that he could get Chen Yuanyuan's bones. I had heard that after Chen Yuanyuan's death, the fragrance of her bones spread for ten miles. Maybe it was a legend, or maybe it was true. Wu Sangui was furious and was angry for the beauty he loved. Chen Yuanyuan must have had something special about her. Was that the fragrance of her bones
I don’t know. Liu Shougui was stunned for a long time and took the bone in his hand and fiddled with it.
He actually smelled it for a long time and then gently put it down.
"I don't think that's enough to make us interested."
"Well, I'll tell you another story. If you're not moved, then I can't do anything about it."
This person didn't say who he was or what his name was.
"Chi County is a place of outstanding people and beautiful women. The men of Liaodong get married to the women of Liaobei. That is Chi County. My daughter is very beautiful. I know that beauty is a disaster, so I rarely let her go out since she was a child. However, on the day when she was 18 years old, I took her out once and met the second son of the Liu family. He liked her. The Liu family is not much worse than the rich family in Chi County. After the rich family falls, it is the time for the rich family to rise. He came to propose marriage. I used the reason that the child was young, but he made things difficult for me in every way and asked me to marry my daughter. I disagreed. The eldest and second sons of the Liu family have bad personalities. Although they are said to be filial, they are not. I absolutely cannot let my daughter marry into the Liu family, but I didn't think about it. On my daughter's birthday, something happened. The second son of the Liu family came with people and threw a card on the table with one million yuan, saying that he would marry her today, otherwise he would have to bear the consequences. I knew that the Liu family had a great position and influence here, and I wanted to run away with my daughter, but I couldn't bear to leave those things behind. After I packed up, it was too late. It seemed that I had to give an explanation today. I knew I couldn't run away, so I took my daughter to the well in the backyard and pushed her down. I knew I was too cruel, but I couldn't let my daughter go into a wolf's den. The Liu family was like that. No woman married to a family member would have a good ending. I went back that day and told them the result, and they left. "
Liu Shougui and I were stunned. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but it was so unexpected that this old man could do such a thing. I had never expected this.
What should I do? The Liu family is abominable. Liu Shougui never mentioned it, but you killed your daughter yourself.
Liu Shougui drank the white wine, then picked up the bone, looked at it for a while and said.
"make a deal."
I stood up immediately, that would hurt people.
"If someone harms one side, Zhou Chu should be killed."
Liu Shougui went into the house and the old man looked at me.
"That's your father-in-law. He has lived in Chi County all his life. I think he is always right."
I sat down, hesitated, drank, and didn't say anything. The old man also didn't say anything and just drank with me.
It was two o'clock in the middle of the night, and I nodded in agreement. I went into the house and he went about his business. In the morning, the Liu family would come to take the house away.
When it was daybreak, I came out and the old man was gone.
The Liu family came with a large truck. It was a little after eight o'clock. Besides the truck, there were quite a few people as well. One of them stood in the middle, standing in the yard looking at the house. Liu Shougui pulled me when no one was paying attention, and I went into the house with him.
He closed the door and whispered.
"That person is here, and we are in trouble."
"who?"
I don't know who it is. I don't know many people in Chixian. Apart from the people in the crematorium, I don't seem to know anyone from other places.
"Qian Xiaoqian, Yin Yang Master."
I was stunned. I have heard of Qian Xiaoqian, who is said to be able to connect Yin and Yang, and is a strange person, but I have never seen him. I think the person standing in the middle should be Qian Xiaoqian. When Qian Xiaoqian came, I also sweated. He knows these things. If he can see it, this Zhafang has done something wrong...
