In the early morning of the next day, the two arrived on time at the village where the owner's family was located in western Hunan. They delivered the six male corpses to six households respectively.
The six families had already set up their mourning halls, and the filial sons carried the man's body into the coffin and sealed it without much effort.
Sun Nong would take a steamed bun from every household when he left. It was said that this meant reward, and it meant handing over work. Logically speaking, those who should stay for a meal should just take a steamed bun for the sake of it.
Ji La's master and senior brother were not seen in the Sun family's big house. Sun Nong's aunt said that they had been here before and asked where Sun Nong's father was. It seemed that there was something urgent and she left without even taking a sip of water.
Yes, but when leaving, just tell him to wait in the village if a baby comes later.
"What happened next?" Xiaoyu blinked her big eyes and breathed a little quickly. Even in broad daylight, it seemed that she was still quite frightened by the story about the ninth day of the lunar month.
Chujiu shook his head, and later he didn’t know that he and Sun Nong fell asleep while listening to stories. Xiaoyu said speechlessly that if he could fall asleep, he would probably not dare to see the body for a long time. This was not a good thing for medical staff.
It was such a failure.
"But later I heard from my old man that he and Grandpa Sun had cooperated many times later, all of which were on behalf of the country. With the development of society and the vigorous promotion of cremation technology, the industry of exorcism has completely disappeared."
"The Grandpa Sun you are talking about is probably the only corpse chaser in existence."
As soon as Xiaoyu finished speaking, Chujiu sighed, shook his head and said that after Grandpa Sun left the village that time, his grandpa was not in a good mood for many days.
Later, grandpa told Chujiu that most of the corpse chasers would not live long because they had been dealing with corpses for many years and were contaminated with corpse aura. Grandpa Sun was an exception. In the last period of his life, he chose to say goodbye to all his friends.
After driving for more than two hours, Chujiu finished telling the story of the corpse chaser, and everyone became bored. Xiao Yu was still interested and asked Chujiu to tell some more interesting stories.
Chujiu curled his lips and said, where are there so many interesting stories? Playing Romance of the Three Kingdoms in an Internet cafe is the most fun. However, he read an article from Zhang Feng's magazine, which decrypted the deeds of the mysterious corpse hunter.
Xiaoyu's eyes became crescent-shaped with joy, urging Chujiu to speak quickly.
The beginning of the article also emphasizes that the mountain roads in western Hunan are difficult to navigate. Smart corpse carriers invented a method of vertically fixing corpses on bamboos. In this way, two corpse carriers can easily transport four to five corpses.
This method of vertically fixing the corpse is to pass the bamboo through the armpit, place the corpse's hands on top of the bamboo, and tie the hands tightly from the wrist to the armpit with a thick hemp rope.
In this way, even if the corpse carrier uses two poles to transport four to five corpses at the same time, the corpses will not fall when walking on uneven mountain roads.
In addition, traditional Chinese costumes are all wide robes with large sleeves, and the shroud is no exception. The bamboo poles tied under the hands will pass through the cuffs of the shroud and then come out from the back, completely covered by the shroud.
Therefore, from a distance at night, it looks like a group of corpses marching behind the corpse carrier with their hands raised.
Since bamboo is a tough material, it will sway up and down due to the bending force of the bamboo pole when carrying organisms.
So the standing corpse seemed to be jumping, moving forward behind the corpse carrier in front. In order to avoid the corpse being rotten by the high temperature of the direct sun during the day, the corpse carriers all chose to travel at night.
In ancient times when illumination was not common at night and people generally could only rely on weak moonlight or candlelight lanterns, the common people who did not dare to get closer and take a closer look saw from a distance the corpse carriers driving a group of corpses with their hands raised and jumping forward.
.
"So that's it! Fortunately, I was so frightened just now that my heart was pounding."
After listening to Chu Jiu's explanation of the decryption in the magazine, Xiaoyu let out a sigh of relief. The previous fear was swept away, and she kept nodding her head. Her high ponytail was like a chicken pecking at rice, so cute.
I leaned on my seat and thought about what Chujiu said about magazine decryption.
If each corpse weighs an average of 120 kilograms, four to five corpses weigh 500 to 600 kilograms.
Moreover, there are many mountain roads in western Hunan, which is the prerequisite for the existence of corpse transport. The mountain roads are rugged and difficult to travel. When going up and down the mountain, the corpse team weighing five to six hundred kilograms is indeed a huge trouble. This is a great deal of strength for the corpse transporters.
challenge.
"Chujiu, do you think this statement is reliable?"
After I asked this question, Chujiu looked at me and smiled, saying that he really couldn't fool Guo Guo. He himself felt that this revelation was pure nonsense.
The basis of Chujiu turned out to be that the old man’s old man’s friend must be a person with real abilities. If they just relied on physical labor, they would definitely not become good friends with his old man’s old man. What’s more, they have helped the country do things. The country
Where can I find a young and strong person? Do I have to go to Grandpa Sun?
After getting off the car, Xiaoyu suggested that we first visit the deaf-mute old woman who was a member of the military. We bought some fruits and vegetables and some daily necessities, and knocked on the door for a long time before entering the old woman's house.
The old woman told Chujiu in sign language that if she hadn't seen the huge calendar hanging behind the door shaking, she wouldn't have noticed someone knocking on the door. But thinking about us children coming here recently, the old woman was happily doing her crafts.
, said she would stare at the door from time to time.
After cleaning the room again, the whole room looked completely different from the first time we came here, clean, tidy and bright.
Because Xiaoyu wanted to take Chujiu to eat hot pot at noon, he simply helped the old lady fry some vegetarian vegetables and cook some rice porridge.
Chujiu stood behind the old woman and massaged her shoulders.
Before leaving, Chujiu told the old woman in sign language that she should eat more, otherwise she would be too thin and be blown away by the wind, and she would not be able to find anyone.
With a stern look on his face, he wanted to tell the old lady that he was going to eat hot pot, but even though he was gesticulating back and forth, he didn't even know what hot pot was.
After asking Xiaoyu, Chujiu told the old woman with gestures that sister Xiaoyu would take him to eat a lot of dishes.
The old woman glanced at Xiaoyu and made some gestures. As if she heard something particularly interesting, Chujiu grinned, clapped her thighs with both hands, and burst into tears of laughter.
On the way to the hotel, Xiaoyu asked Chujiu, who kept laughing all the time, what happened to the old woman, so funny.
Chujiu suppressed his laughter and said loudly.
"The old lady said, let sister Xiaoyu eat more, and then she can have a fat boy with hot pot after she gains weight, hahahaha."
After finishing speaking, Chujiu ran forward with a smile. My face felt hot, and when I turned to look at Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu's face was red to the bottom of her ears, her head lowered and she said coquettishly, wanting to beat Chujiu.
On the ninth day of the lunar month, I finally got my wish and had hot pot. I happily said that now that I have money, I can eat McDonald's for lunch and hot pot every night.
Xiaoyu told us that she was going to visit her teacher recently, and it was the most critical moment for her academic report.
