"Village Chief Tan, I, Hu Laoer, have never heard of college students or primary school students. This shady marriage only requires 10% of the formalities, and that's it. It's considered a marriage to a clear matchmaker." Hu Laoer didn't want this business to go to waste.
He quickly retorted.
"That's because you are ignorant. It's okay to force a secret marriage, but in this case, you and I will lose our lives. If you don't want to live, you will also harm others."
Deng Yong glared at Hu Laoer, and then saw the hesitation on Tan Desheng's face. He was also a little irritated. If the money Tan Desheng hadn't paid was high enough, he would have given up long ago.
"Well, Village Chief Tan, I'll prove it to you and you show me your son's photo."
"Oh well."
After hearing Deng Yong's words, Tan Desheng immediately took the photo of a woman behind him holding it to her chest. The young man in the photo was his youngest son.
Deng Yong took the photo, walked up to the female corpse, completely lifted the red cloth, and began to recite some scriptures at a speed so fast that no one could hear it clearly.
"Mr. Qin, what is this Taoist priest doing?" Tank, who had been standing aside and watching, asked Qin Yu in a low voice.
"Ask the soul." Qin Yu uttered two words lightly and raised his eyebrows. This Taoist priest still has some real abilities.
After Deng Yong finished reading the scriptures, he suddenly shouted softly, which startled Hu Laoer who was standing aside, and cursed in a low voice: "Pretend to be a ghost."
"What's the name of this female corpse?" Deng Yong turned to Hu Laoer and asked.
"Xia Xiaotian." Although he was reluctant, Hu Laoer still answered truthfully.
Deng Yong nodded, quickly formed hand seals with his hands, and finally pointed his sword at the female corpse and asked: "Xia Xiaotian, Tan Jianqiu, the second son of the Tan family, wants to form a secret marriage with you, are you willing?"
"If you are willing, let this photo stay with you. If you are not willing, take this photo away."
Deng Yong's words made Hu Laoer and Tan Desheng look at each other, while Tank received Qin Yu's explanation and watched Deng Yong's next move with interest.
Deng Yong was seen holding Tan Jianqiu's photo in both hands and slowly placing it towards the head of the female corpse. However, when his hand was still an inch away from the female corpse, he could no longer put it down.
"Did you see that Xia Xiaotian disagrees?" Deng Yong saw this scene and turned to Hu Laoer and said.
"If you say you don't agree, then you don't agree. Who knows if you are deliberately causing trouble." Hu Laoer said suspiciously.
"Then give it a try. If you can put this photo next to the female corpse, I will continue to hold the secret marriage this time." Deng Yong said firmly.
"Just give it a try." Hu Laoer didn't give in. He stepped forward and took the photo from Deng Yong's hand, then bowed to the female corpse and murmured to himself: "Xia Xiaotian, it's cold and lonely on this Huangquan Road, so many
One person only has one more companion, so just accept it."
After saying that, Hu Laoer took the photo and put it next to the female corpse, but his expression soon froze, because he could only put it in the position where Deng Yong had placed it before. No matter how hard he tried, it would still be there.
If it doesn't fit any further, it's like there's another invisible wall of air pushing against it.
"Is it really Xia Xiaotian who doesn't want to marry Tan Jianqiu?" Hu Laoer scratched his head. This was the first time he had encountered such a thing. When he took on jobs in the past, he had completed the task by delivering the body to him.
, but he sometimes stayed to watch the following ceremonies. They were all normal and there were never any mistakes.
"Huh, that's because those people in the past didn't understand shadow marriage at all. They just defrauded the host's money and left after taking the money." Deng Yong seemed to have seen through Hu Laoer's thoughts and said disdainfully.
"Then what should we do now? Director Tan, this corpse..." Tan Desheng didn't care about this. He just wanted to know if this female corpse could have a secret marriage with his son?
"Village Chief Tan, we have agreed on this. I am only responsible for transporting the female body. This female body is innocent and has no problem with her origins. Regardless of whether we can form a secret marriage or not, the money we agreed cannot be less."
Hu Laoer was anxious. If the Taoist priest said that he could not have a secret marriage, would he still be able to get the money? So he had to ask clearly first. He must know that this matter was a verbal agreement between him and Tan Desheng, and it was not written in black and white.
After making an agreement, if Tan Desheng refused to accept it, he would have no choice.
Sure enough, Tan Desheng's attitude changed after listening to Deng Yong's words, and he hesitated a little, "Master Hu, we are talking about a female corpse sent to my son for a secret marriage, but this female corpse is not suitable now."
"Village Chief Tan, you didn't make so many requests at the beginning. I found the female corpse according to your request. You wanted me to find someone more educated and beautiful, and Xia Xiaotian meets all of them.
You can’t default on your debt.”
"I didn't say I was going to default on the debt, Master Hu. How about you change it to someone with a lower education? I can give you a little more money." Tan Desheng was a little frightened when he saw Mr. Hu's anxious look.
, after all, he is the local village chief. If Hu Laoer publicizes that he found a secret marriage for his son, it will have a bad impact.
"You thought you were going to the vegetable market to pick out Chinese cabbage? It's so easy to find it."
Hu Laoer rolled his eyes. It took him nearly a month to find this female corpse, and he only paid 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. Except for those truly poor people, who would be willing to give away the remains of their relatives?
The body was sold, even though I knew it would be buried in the end.
"Then...then there's nothing I can do." Tan Desheng replied with a sudden heart.
"you……"
"Okay, let's stop arguing. It's not impossible to bury this female body, but it will be a little troublesome." Deng Yong looked at Tan Desheng and Hu Laoer arguing, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he said.
What Deng Yong didn't know was that the glint in his eyes had not escaped anyone's eyes.
Qin Yu stood aside and watched quietly. When he heard Deng Yong say there was a way, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly, but he still did not speak.
"Master Deng, if you can tell me what you can do, I will definitely cooperate with you." Tan Desheng didn't want to fall out with Hu Laoer. Hearing what Deng Yong said, he quickly showed a flattering smile on his face and asked.
"Forget it, let's find another one. Doing this will harm my moral conduct."
Who knows, Deng Yong suddenly shook his head, and then stopped talking about what to do. This scene made both Tan Desheng and Hu Laoer a little anxious. Finally, Hu Laoer turned his eyes and looked at Tan Desheng.
Said: "Village Chief Tan, this Taoist priest Deng is an expert with true Taoism. He is different from those people I have met before. I think the price you offered Taoist Deng is a bit low."
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, this is not a question of money, it is really something that cannot be done. You must know that doing this will destroy my three years of practice." Deng Yong shook his head, looking helpless.
"Yes...yes, Master Hu, you are right. Daoist Deng is a real expert. Daoist Deng, if not, let's add another 20,000 to the previously agreed price. Do you think that's okay?"
"Daozhang Deng, my Qiuwa is also a child who has suffered a lot. Daozhang Deng, just think of doing good deeds. I believe this is also a matter of doing good and accumulating virtue."
Tan Desheng begged for a long time, and then Deng Yong sighed, with a helpless expression on his face, and said: "That's it, just think of it as doing a good deed, but the cost is quite high. It will cost three years of practice."
.”
"Thank you so much, Taoist priest Deng. Thank you so much, Taoist priest Deng. I will definitely not let Taoist priest Deng pay my respects to you." Tan Desheng promised.
"That's alright, let's take this female body back."
Deng Yong waved his hand, and Tan Desheng responded and waved to the team behind him. At that moment, seven or eight big men carried a black coffin in front of the female body. Then several people put on linen gloves on their hands and put the female body into the coffin.
Inside.
Then, the suonas, gongs and drums sounded, and a group of people carried the coffin and walked back to the village. Hu Laoer walked to Qin Yu and said: "Boss Qin, everything is fine, we can go back now.
.”
"Aren't you going to settle the bill with me?" Qin Yu looked at Hu Laoer and asked with a smile.
"We'll settle this next time. It'll be fine." Hu Laoer said nonchalantly. As long as the female body was picked up by the Tan family, the business would be considered successful and the Tan family would not be able to default on the debt.
"Let's go and have a look." Qin Yu shook his head and did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he followed the crowd and walked slowly.
"Hey, Boss Chen, what does Boss Qin mean? Didn't you say that time is tight? Why do you still want to join in the fun?" Hu Laoer looked at Qin Yu's back walking forward and asked Tank suspiciously.
"Just follow me. Mr. Qin must have his reasons for doing this." Tank didn't understand why Qin Yu suddenly wanted to follow him, but he would not object to any of Qin Yu's behaviors and actions, and he immediately followed him.
passed.
"What's so good about this shady marriage? It's so oozing." Hu Laoer shook his head helplessly. If these two wanted to watch, he could only accompany them.
When the group of people from Tanjiacun returned to Tanjiacun carrying the coffin, every door in Tanjiacun was closed, and there were rows of briquettes on both sides of the village road, with a stack of yellow briquettes placed on top of each briquette.
Paper and three incense sticks.
After the team entered the village, all the musical instruments stopped, everyone was silent, and the group just walked in one direction. That was where the village committee of Tanjia Village was located, and where the secret wedding was held this time.
place.
When he looked at the eight red characters "Break superstition and believe in science" on the wall of the village committee, Qin Yu almost laughed out loud. It was really a great irony that the secret wedding was held here.
In fact, what Qin Yu doesn't know is that because Tanjia Village is located in the mountains, the village committee members of Tanjia Village are all beautiful people. On weekdays, any major events or Tujia festivals are held here.
A grand meeting was held, and today Tan Desheng's youngest son was getting married in secret. Everyone in Tanjia Village also knew about it, and they all took good care of their children and did not let them run around. This is why Qin Yu is doing this
It’s because I didn’t see a child on the road. (To be continued)
