Time travel fat businessman

Chapter 373
The store is open all year round. The elderly can go home at dawn, come to make dinner in the evening, and go here to receive the corpse exorcisers at 04:30 in the morning.

If you don't come, that's okay, anyway, everyone will automatically keep the passing money, but when there are people, you still have to come to make dinner.

After the old man left, Tao Bao and the others had almost finished eating, and it was completely dark. The old man Rong said that tonight they followed Mr. Lin to send Xishen down the mountain, and then went to Mr. Lin's house.

The two of them talked a lot in code words, Tao Bao only knew that this old man came to find Mr. Lin specifically to do something, but she didn't hear the specific things, too much jargon, too many code words, she was a foreigner Menhan, it's normal not to understand.

However, seeing Mr. Lin as a corpse chaser, Lao Rongtou and his son's occupations are probably related to the dead. Tao Bao guessed what it was, it might be a grave robber, because today she took advantage of Qingjiang's inattention and lifted his backpack to take a look.

The tools inside include shovels, Luoyang shovels, metal umbrellas, ropes, compasses, flares, and some smaller items. They are fully equipped and look professional.

Speaking of it, the father and son didn't deliberately hide from her, but they didn't tell her about their occupations either. Depending on what that means, you can guess whatever you want, and it's up to you whether you guess well or not, with a very indifferent attitude.

After dinner, we rested for a while, each packed up our things and prepared to go down the mountain.

Tao Bao was wearing only this cheongsam and the jacket jacket given by the female student. It was winter, and no one would find it strange that she didn't change clothes for ten and a half months. She didn't salute, but sat in the hall and waited, watching How did Mr. Lin and his apprentice revitalize the corpse.

Mr. Lin had a bell in his hand. He walked to the door and stood beside his body. Lin Zhao was holding a box of cinnabar in his hand. Mr. Lin lifted the cap from the corpse, revealing a pale dead face with a sticker on his forehead. Yellow talisman.

Every time Mr. Lin lifted a hat, Lin Zhao would dip his hand in cinnabar and put a little bit on the yellow talisman. After finishing all four corpses, he put the hat back on.

Lin Zhao put away the cinnabar and walked to the door, grabbed a handful of Ming coins from his waist pocket, sprinkled them into the sky with a "crash", and said in his mouth:

"Xiangxi drives corpses away, strangers avoid them, start—!"

After he yelled, Mr. Lin held the copper bell, shook it "jingle bell", and shouted: "Get up!"

Immediately afterwards, the four corpses that were originally motionless unexpectedly shook violently, which made Tao Bao startled, but at this time, her face was expressionless, and no one could see that she was shocked.

Lin Zhao clapped his hands, walked into the room, and removed the threshold. Mr. Lin rang the bell, and the four corpses jumped out of the inn one by one.

At this time, Mr. Lin really started to drive away the corpses. He shook the copper bell in his hand and shouted:

"Xiangxi drives corpses away, strangers avoid them, start—!"

As the saying goes, people have three souls and seven souls. The sound of the copper bell is also three long and seven short. Every time it rings, the four gods of joy will jump forward and take a step forward. This step is not short, it is a full foot long.

After the copper bell rang for a round, Mr. Lin yelled a word to drive away the corpses, and then marched towards the north. The thick fallen leaves in the forest rustled under the trampling of the corpses, and the scene was extremely strange. .

Lin Zhao walked behind the corpses to prevent them from falling behind, while Tao Bao and the others followed behind.

Old Rong looked familiar, Qingjiang seemed to have seen it before, saw Tao Bao looking at the four corpses curiously, and explained to her as he walked:

"The so-called exorcising corpses refers to Taoists like Mr. Lin, who use Taoism to drive people who died in foreign lands back to their hometowns."

"There are real and fake corpse exorcisms in this world. A fake corpse exorcism is to find a living person to pretend to be a corpse and carry the dead away. This kind of person has no real skills, and they are all made to fool people. Mr. Lin is the one who really drives away corpses."

"True exorcising corpses can be divided into two types, one is inviting spirits, and the other is recruiting Gu. The so-called inviting spirits is to invite other people's souls out and attach them to dead corpses, summoning the souls with bells, and driving the corpses on their way."

"This kind of corpse has a soul attached to it. Although it is not the original owner, it can be regarded as half a living person. It is much lighter to walk. But this kind of corpse is extremely dangerous. Once the corpse is manipulated Not good, if there is a dead body change in the master devourer, it is easy to cause big trouble, although it is fast, but the gentleman who is not particularly virtuous, generally dare not use it."

"There is another kind of tricking Gu, Mr. Lin's. This kind of exorcism is to feed the Gu insects into the viscera of the corpse, drive the Gu away with a bell, and drive the corpse back to its hometown. Using this method, the corpse is dead, and its limbs are stiff. It takes time to walk slowly, but it is safe."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his palm and waved it in the direction of Mr. Lin, saying: "Actually, it's not too slow. Look at the person behind Mr. Lin, he's actually not walking too slowly. The road in the mountains is slippery and the weather is cold. If you go slower, you won't get hurt. It’s time to explain to your parents.”

Tao Bao nodded and smiled at Qingjiang, expressing that he understood.

But according to what Qing Jiang said, this Mr. Lin can also poison?

She hadn't thought about this before, but she didn't notice it. Now that she used her spiritual sense to explore it, she really found something unusual.

Among the four corpses, there was something swimming, which should be the Gu cast by Mr. Lin.

Since she learned Gu, she hasn't done much research, all the knowledge is stored in her mind, she doesn't look at it, she doesn't practice much, she doesn't know that Gu insects can also exorcise corpses, it seems that she has time to cast water spells first, If you study Gu techniques, there may be surprises.

Following the sound of Mr. Lin ringing the bell, Tao Bao and his party had already reached the foot of the mountain. When they went down the mountain, they could see torches. When they walked in, they heard Mr. Lin's yelling, and the torches greeted them.

Some held torches, some carried stretchers, and some held incense burners and candles. They were dressed in ethnic minority costumes, both men and women had cloth scarves on their heads, and white sackcloth outside. They were the parents who came to pick up the corpse.

Someone came to pick him up, and Mr. Lin's work was finally at its destination. He removed the talisman and placed the corpses one by one for the parents. He also secretly summoned the poison from the corpses. After the handover was completed, all four families watched them off. They leave.

When the people left, Mr. Lin looked at Tao Bao and the three of them and said, "Let's go, first go to my house to have a rest, and then go to the old man's house during the day to have a look. After finishing the matter, we can set off."

Lao Rong nodded, and led Tao Bao and the others to Mr. Lin's house.

After crossing the loess road, you can hear the sound of running water. It’s about four o’clock in the morning, and it’s a little bright. You can see a large terraced field below. Walking through the ridge, listening to the sound of running water in the ditch, Tao Bao and the others touched In the dark, walk down the terraced fields to the stockade.

After stepping off the terraced fields, there is a different scenery in front of you. It is not a loess road, but a gravel road. The houses on stilts are on the opposite mountain, one after another, all the way to the top of the mountain.

There is a five-meter-wide river between the village and the terraced fields. There are waterwheels beside the river and a wind and rain bridge. After crossing the bridge, you will be at the bottom of the village.

There is a gravel road passing through the middle of the village. Mr. Lin's home is at the foot of the mountain, next to the river, so there is no need to climb the mountain.

It was still early, and when the five of them entered, the rooster hadn't even crowed yet.

Mr. Lin’s house is a very common house on stilts. There is an open space in front of the house. When you open the door, there is a long corridor. Standing on the corridor, you can see the terraced fields opposite.

Walking through the long corridor is the main room. There is an altar inside. Mr. Lin lit the kerosene lamp, and there is light in the room. In this cold winter, people feel warm in the heart.
