"Brother?"
I murmured, what's the matter, first it was related to the master, and now it was related to the brother again. This matter is so concealed, how can both the brother and the master be involved
I stared at the shop owner for a while, and wondered: "What idea did my brother give you?"
He raised his eyes and looked outside, and said in a deep voice: "I still remember what your brother said to me. He said, your restaurant is something of a master. How can you hang up other signs? In his opinion , I smashed this new sign earlier and burned it, and then put a shrine on the southeast corner of the restaurant. Three pillars of fragrant incense every day to ensure that your restaurant is fine.
"You did it?" I asked hurriedly.
He smiled bitterly: "Yes, I did what your brother said, don't tell me, just that night, I had a dream, I dreamt of a twenty-three or four-year-old woman wearing a white dress. I kept talking to me. Because I was in a dream, I didn't hear what she said to me, but since then, I haven't had any accidents in this restaurant."
After listening to this, I immediately understood. If I guessed correctly, this restaurant really has an owner. Once other signs were hung up, the original owner would naturally not agree, and a series of strange things happened.
However, if this is the case, this restaurant looks too evil!
When the shop owner saw that I didn't speak, he thought I didn't believe him, so he said, "Chuanzi, don't believe me, what I told you is the truth."
I gave a wry smile and hurriedly said: "I believe it, yes, has Li Yang been to this restaurant?"
"He, he often comes here. The first few times he came here, he wanted to get me back to the restaurant, Chuanzi, you said there is no such truth in the world. I bought it with real money back then, even though the price is cheap, but the restaurant is also Mine!" When the shop owner said this, he was so excited that he almost didn't jump up.
I smiled, not knowing what to say, so I looked at him and asked, "How many times has Li Yang been here?"
The shop owner was taken aback, thought about it, and said, "I have been here seven or eight times, and every time I burned some yellow paper at the restaurant’s entrance and left. I saw that he was only burning yellow paper and he didn’t bother to ask for the restaurant. , And ignored him.
"Has he entered the restaurant?" I asked again.
His face suddenly changed, and he said: "There are so many rumors about him in the town now, how dare I let him into the restaurant, it's strange to say that, then Li Yang seemed to know that he was a bit evil, and he did not come in.
I took a deep look at him, and then asked him something about Li Yang. What made me very depressed was that he seemed to have no interest in Li Yang's affairs, and just wanted to drag me to find some gold bars.
At the moment, I told him euphemistically that I didn't have time to fiddle with those things, and I told him that now Li Yang has become like this, more or less related to those gold bars.
The owner of that shop is a smart man. When I heard this, how could I understand what I meant, and asked me a few more tentatively, basically asking me if I really didn’t go
To this question, my answer was very simple, and I told him that I would never go.
Seeing this, the shop owner's face was obviously a little bit decadent, but he was also frightened, so he said, "Chuanzi, tell me what you want, if you have a chance to get half a house of gold bars, would you go?"
I smiled slightly and said, "If you ask a hundred people about this question, you will get a hundred kinds of answers, depending on how you choose."
"Understood, thank you." The shop owner smiled at me, handed me a cigarette, and said, "By the way, Chuanzi, would you like to see the shrine that your brother gave me back then?"
I nodded and didn't speak.
The owner of the shop took the lead to walk outside, and I immediately followed. I thought he was going down to the first floor of the restaurant. What I didn't expect was that he led me straight out of the restaurant.
While passing by Zi Yangtao and the cauliflower head, the cauliflower head was stuffed to eat, Zi Yangtao gave me a wink, meaning to ask me, what's the situation.
I made a gesture to him, meaning it was okay, and went out with the shop owner.
The place the shopkeeper led me to was in a corner outside the restaurant. There was a dark black stool on which was a shrine.
"My restaurant opens the door to do business. You can't put the shrine in the restaurant. Otherwise, let those diners see it and think that there is something unclean in my restaurant." As soon as I arrived at the shrine, the shop owner explained to me One sentence.
I hummed, what he said is true. We are more superstitious here. Putting the shrine in the restaurant will indeed make people mistakenly think that there is something dirty in the restaurant.
There is no other way, after all, this is the case in the countryside.
Wait, there seems to be something wrong with this shrine! !
Right now, I squatted down and stared at the shrine, only to find that the shrine enshrined in the shrine was actually a two-finger-wide wooden board with no words on it.
Wordless wood
What does this mean
If the brother gave the shop owner an idea back then, he should have carved Xiao Min's name on this wooden board.
After all, this shrine is to be dedicated to the owner of the restaurant, but what did the brother do with such a non-character wood
I looked at the shop owner and asked him: "Boss, what is this wordless wood for?"
He smiled awkwardly and said, "Well! Hearing from your brother, this wordless wood seems to represent the three gods and the original owner of this restaurant."
Three gods
My brow furrowed, and the three gods spoken from my senior brother should be the Jiamu god Zuo Youming, Ding Sanshen Liu Quanshan, and Wudeng Shenmeng Sanniang.
It’s just that we ghosts rarely use these three gods. Unless we encounter something that we can’t solve ourselves, we will invite these three gods out. Isn’t it possible that brothers can’t solve this matter, so we invite these three gods Came out.
At this point, my brow furrowed deeper and deeper, and I asked the shop owner, "Is this wordless wood used in cinnabar mixed with chicken blood, engraved with the three characters A, D, and E?"
As soon as the voice fell, the shop owner was surprised: "How do you know?"
Hearing this, my face became darker, and both eyebrows were squeezed together. If the three characters were actually carved with this material, it definitely meant that the senior brother couldn't solve this problem back then.
In this way, the whole thing will become more difficult, and it can even be said that this is not only about Li Yang, it will also involve this restaurant.
More importantly, I am more worried that this matter will become more and more involved.
For a while, I didn't know what to do at all.
The shop owner saw that I didn't speak, so he asked me, "Chuanzi, is there a problem?"
I thought about it, and then asked him: "How long has it been since the time the shrine was placed?"
He thought for a while and said, "It seems that tomorrow will be exactly three years, why? Is there a problem?" (End of this chapter)
