Chapter 105 The eldest princess wants to treat again?
From the narrow alley to the back wall of the coffin shop, Li Nanke jumped over.
There are some sawdust, shavings, branches and other scraps piled up in the backyard. There are a few undecorated and unpainted coffins placed in the corner against the wall, as well as some tools.
Li Nanke didn't hear any sound, and the surroundings were extremely quiet.
He carefully pushed open a half-open door, and the cold air that greeted him gave people the illusion of entering an icehouse.
This is a very spacious house.
There wasn't much furniture, just a pair of neatly arranged coffins.
The light in the room was also extremely dark. The beam of light coming from the window hit the two coffins in the front, and the flying dust mixed with them flew around.
"Da da... da da..."
A stooped old man was leaning over the lid of a coffin, holding a small awl in his hand and carving something on it.
Li Nanke tried his best to breathe and looked at every place carefully.
One hand is holding the handle of the knife, and the other hand is holding the talisman that was looted from Yin Wusha's body.
Although he didn't know what the use of these talismans was, but someone as powerful as the other party had it with him, it must be no different.
"Does the guest want to order a coffin?"
The old man's cold voice sounded without warning.
Li Nanke was stunned, and immediately looked at the old man with his back turned to him with caution, feeling a little surprised.
It's so far away and so deep that you can still detect it.
Is this old man a master?
"Old man, I have put up a sign for the coffins in each price range. Customers can just pick whatever they like."
The old man was minding his own work, his voice as gray as ashes without any emotion, as dull as these lifeless coffins.
There is even an illusion that this old man is a walking corpse.
Li Nanke glanced at the row of coffins with different materials and fineness, and stopped hiding. He showed up and asked, "Are you the owner of the store?"
"What kind of boss? He's just an old immortal half-buried in the earth."
The old man laughed.
It's just that this laughter is also emotionless and empty.
Li Nanke bravely walked up to the old man.
The other party had a thin body and a face that was as skinny as skin and bones. Wang Baochuan probably hadn't gotten this thin after eating weeds for eighteen years.
"I am the master of the Yamen." Li Nanke said.
"oh."
The old man just responded and had no other words.
Looking at the old man carving out an incomprehensible rune on the coffin lid, Li Nanke said: "Did that girl just order a coffin from you?"
"What else can people come to me for besides custom-made coffins?"
"For whom to order a coffin?"
"If the guests don't take the initiative to speak, I will never ask questions, old man." The old man took out a small knife and carefully whittled the edge of the coffin lid, with a look of concentration on his face.
Li Nanke asked again: "Which coffin did she order?"
"The one behind you."
Li Nanke turned around.
In front of him is a coffin made of ebony wood.
The coffin is made of expensive materials, and its octagonal and twelve sides are made of wooden mortise and tenon, which shows the old man's exquisite craftsmanship.
There is no coffin lid yet, and the interior is lined with a layer of silk cushions.
It seems that what the old man is decorating now is the coffin lid customized by Jiang Min... "This coffin will cost a lot of money."
"That's natural."
The old man didn't say how much Jiang Min spent, but comparing with other coffins, it should be the best grade in this coffin shop.
If he wasn't the most important person, how could he be so attentive?
Li Nanke frowned.
After thinking for a moment, he asked the old man again: "Did that woman say anything?"
"I don't know. The old man is deaf. He can only hear what kind of coffin the customer wants to order, but not others. If he hears it, it will rot in his stomach and he will not be able to spit out a word."
The old man blew away the sawdust and said calmly.
Li Nanke laughed and gave a thumbs up: "Principled, not bad."
But the next second, the old man said: "Unless you give me money."
"..."
Li Nanke took out some broken silver and threw it over: "What did she say?"
The old man didn't even look at it.
If it’s too little, you’ll have to pay more!
Li Nanke touched the hem of his clothes and handed over the banknotes he had collected from Yin Wusha with some pain.
As soon as I put it on the coffin lid, it suddenly disappeared.
Li Nanke blinked. The old man was still lying on the coffin lid working, as if he wasn't the one who took the banknote just now.
"She only asked me one sentence."
The old man raised his face as thin as a skeleton, with a hint of smile in his deep eyes, and said slowly, "Can this coffin sleep two people?"
Two people?
Li Nanke subconsciously glanced at the coffin.
Can accommodate two people.
"Is this gone?" Looking at the old man who was working with his head down, Li Nanke looked extremely unkind and tightened his grip on the handle of the knife.
This is a money grab.
"The money you spend is like the water you throw away. It's hard to get it." The old man grinned, "If you die, you can't stop it no matter how you do it. That's fate."
Li Nanke took a few deep breaths, turned around and left.
"The guest doesn't want your coffin?"
The hollow voice of the old man floated faintly behind him.
Li Nanke paused and turned to look at him: "What did you say?" Under the dusty sunshine, the old man's figure was as thin as a piece of paper, which could be blown away by the wind at any time.
The old man said: "If you spend money, it is equivalent to ordering a coffin. The guest doesn't plan to take it away?"
Li Nanke smiled: "What? It's a bundled operation. Is there any exciting program to entertain me? I'm in great health and can handle it."
"If the guest doesn't like these styles, I will take it upon myself to give you one." The old man got up with some difficulty and pointed to a coffin in the shadow and darkness.
The coffin cannot be seen clearly, only a corner of the coffin is painted red.
Li Nanke was filled with doubts. He didn't know what the old man was going to do. Could it be that he was another one who planned to kill him?
But it doesn’t look like it.
And he didn't have the slightest bit of murderous intent on him.
Li Nanke approached the coffin.
The outline of the coffin gradually became clearer, and the whole body was bright red. It was made of an unknown material, and was tightly bound by pieces of talismans.
Seeing this coffin, Li Nanke felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
My stomach and intestines seemed to be churning.
But what's even more strange is that he actually has a sense of déjà vu, as if he has seen the same coffin somewhere before... "Guest, do you need me to ask someone to help you carry it?"
The old man asked standing behind him.
"No, I'll give it to you." Li Nanke said this and turned to leave.
"One day, guests will come and ask for it."
The old man said softly.
Hearing the door slam shut, the old man sighed.
At this moment, the coffin suddenly shook.
The shaking was quite violent.
As the coffin lid slowly opened a crack,
The air of decay suddenly surged out, and a pale hand slowly stretched out, with extremely long sharp black nails.
"Don't be anxious...don't be anxious...he will want you..."
The old man quickly ran over and patted the coffin to comfort him, "He will want you... He will not abandon you..."
Under the comfort of the old man, the coffin gradually became stable.
The pale hand with black nails also retracted, and the coffin lid closed again.
"Since the customer has bought the coffin, I have to write his name on it." The old man picked up the awl and hammer and came to the front of the coffin.
Just when he was about to knock, he frowned and said, "By the way, what's the guest's name?"
"呲呲......"
At this time, there was a slightly harsh sound inside the coffin.
One can imagine that the pale hand was gently digging at the coffin lid with its sharp nails.
The old man listened carefully, and then suddenly realized:
"Yes, my name is Nanke."
——
After walking out of the coffin shop, the depression in Li Nanke's heart was relieved and he felt relaxed all over.
Things are a bit lost now.
The monster Meng Qing is not here, so Jiang Min ordered the coffin to collect his body?
Why ask again if two people can be accommodated?
What exactly is Jiang Min planning? Whether she and Meng Qing have other secrets is unknown.
After thinking about it, Li Nanke planned to go to the Night Patrol Division.
See if the little rabbit is back.
Just as we arrived at the gate of the Night Patrol Department, the eldest princess's guards appeared again.
Before the other party could speak, Li Nanke sighed helplessly: "I understand, please lead the way."
So the man was taken into the familiar study room again.
When there were only two people left in the room, Li Nanke naturally went to hold the princess's little hand, but was avoided by the other party.
"Bring it here."
Bai Ruyue stretched out her palm, her palm was tender and red.
"What?"
Li Nanke was a little confused.
Bai Ruyue bit her lip and glared at him, her charming eyes filled with coldness: "Didn't you say yesterday that you were going to make some love plans?"
"Oh, yes, yes." Li Nanke responded.
Before leaving yesterday, he did say that he would make a love plan so that the two of them could develop faster.
But this incident was forgotten after I returned home.
Li Nanke was thinking wildly in his mind and started to rant: "There is no need to write down this plan, it is all in my head, just follow me. I guarantee that the princess will fall in love with me in ten and a half days."
"Tell me, how to do it?" Bai Ruyue asked coldly.
Li Nanke stretched out his finger: "The first step is to address each other. Couples should be more intimate. I call you eldest princess, and you call me Li Nanke. The status of superiority and inferiority has been established, how to fall in love?"
"Then what should I call you?" Bai Ruyue felt that what the other party said was reasonable... "Call me Master."
"What!?"
"Just kidding, just call me Ake." Li Nanke quickly corrected him and actually said what was on his mind.
"Ah...ah..."
Bai Ruyue tried calling several times, but she couldn't call out completely. She stamped her jade feet and said angrily, "This doesn't work, try another one!"
"Then call me dear." Li Nanke set a high standard.
"Ake."
Bai Ruyue could suddenly accept this title.
Li Nanke smiled, Si Shao leaned back and said, "Then I'll call you little baby."
"Baby?"
"Then let's call her Xiao Tiantian?"
"..."
Bai Ruyue's apricot eyes widened, a slight shiver like goosebumps rose up on the back of her neck, her teeth were almost sore, she shook her head quickly, "No! No! If you say this, I'll kill you!"
"Then princess, give it your own name." Li Nanke spread his hands.
Bai Ruyue thought for a long time, blushed slightly and said, "Call me Yue'er."
Average.
Li Nanke was a little disappointed and called him: "Yue'er."
Hearing this address, the eldest princess couldn't help blushing her pink cheeks, her beautiful lips were slightly curled up, and she wanted to say something, but she still chose to remain silent.
"Actually, the only ways for couples to develop relationships are through chatting, eating, watching movies, walking, and playing... It would be even better if special events could be triggered. As for heroes saving beauties, life and death, etc., I guess we won't be able to meet them.
arrive."
Li Nanke talked a lot, and the princess frowned as she listened.
It sounds very simple.
"How do you and your wife develop a relationship?" Bai Ruyue suddenly asked curiously.
Li Nanke said with a smile: "We cultivate our relationship after marriage, and the little things in life gradually accumulate.
There was a lack of trust at the beginning, but gradually we got over it. For the sake of romance, we even pretended not to know each other’s identities. In short, although we are still a little short of achieving perfection, we are very comfortable.”
Bai Ruyue looked confused, not understanding this kind of post-marital love.
"It feels easy, but it seems difficult."
The irritable eldest princess scratched her head and said feebly, "Then let's start with chatting."
"What to talk about?"
"How do I know?" the woman puffed out her delicate red cheeks and asked angrily.
"Okay, I think about it myself. Also, don't call yourself me at this time, understand?" Li Nanke said seriously.
Bai Ruyue lowered her eyes and reluctantly hummed.
"Hold hands first, then chat." Li Nanke stretched out his hand, "This time you take the initiative to hold my hand."
There was silence in the room.
Bai Ruyue bit her lower lip with her teeth that were like grinding jade beads, and finally stretched out her catkin and gently held Li Nanke's hand.
Complex emotions came together in my heart.
But before the man could taste it, the woman's catkin suddenly tightened her grip on the man's hand, and even green veins were stretched out on the back of the snowy hand.
The other hand also subconsciously clenched the skirt.
Damn it, the strange disease is here again!
Bai Ruyue cursed in her heart and wanted to let go of the man's hand and drive him out, but her condition became more severe than before.
Instead, she subconsciously held the man's hand tighter.
Her delicate body was trembling slightly, and it was even difficult for her to speak. Sweat oozed from her delicate forehead and the tip of her nose.
Li Nanke also saw something unusual.
What does it mean?
Another seafood dinner for free?
