My master is invincible

Chapter 2049

What made me extremely depressed was that Chen Zhongguo didn't speak directly when he heard my question, but sighed for a long time.

This made me anxious, and I really didn't know what to say, so I asked him: "What's the matter?"

He glanced up slowly, without saying a word, and then walked straight to the door.

When he reached the door, he leaned out, glanced outside, and said in a low voice, "You two come in."

I frowned. When Chen Zhongguo came in, he had indeed arranged for two people to guard the door. I thought they had left with the village chief, but now it seems that they did not.

After a while, two middle-aged men walked in. They were dressed plainly. One had a crew cut and looked energetic, while the other was bald but had piercing eyes.

As soon as I saw the two of them, I nodded slightly and didn't say a word, but the two of them knelt down towards me, which scared me, so I didn't wait for them to kneel down, I quickly helped them up, and said: "What are you doing?" What are you doing!"

The bald man said: "Palace Master, according to our customs, the first time you see the Palace Master, you have to kneel to show respect."

Ok?
And this custom?
I couldn't refute, so I quickly said: "It's all modern, kneeling is just..."

Before I could finish speaking, another person hurriedly said: "Palace Master, some rules are still required."

While talking, they were about to kneel, but in desperation, I had no choice but to look at Chen Zhongguo, and he smiled, "Palace Master, this is a custom, let them do it. Otherwise, they will feel uncomfortable."

Ok!

Chen Zhongguo has said that, what else can I say, I can only accept their kneeling nervously.

Soon, the two of them knelt down solemnly, kowtowed to me again, and then got up.

The moment they stood up, Chen Zhongguo said slowly, "Master, the one on the left is Master Liu, the coffin bearer in Qingtian Town, and the other one is Master Tian from Qihuang Town. By the way, don't look at Tian. The master is a coffin bearer, he is not cheap, he is the richest person in their Qihuang formation."

Ok?
I glanced at Master Tian in surprise. This Master Tian is the one with the bald head. From the bottom of my heart, judging by his outfit, he is definitely not a rich man.

However, thinking that some rich people have always kept a low profile, they were relieved and did not speak.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Master Tian was stunned, and asked me, "Palace Master, do you have anything to say to me?"

I glanced at him suspiciously, and asked back, "What should I tell you?"

As soon as these words came out, Master Na Tian's expression brightened, and he hurriedly said: "Palace Master is indeed a young hero."

Ok?
I became more and more confused about what he meant, and just as I was about to speak, Chen Zhongguo smiled awkwardly and explained: "Master Tian, ​​it's like this. The identity of Master Tian is very embarrassing. After many people know that he is a rich man, Everyone can't wait to flatter, but after you know his identity, your reaction is a little indifferent."

Well, I figured it out.

However, what I don't understand is that regardless of whether they are rich or poor, don't they all have two shoulders against one head, so they just oh and didn't speak again.

And Master Na Tian said: "Palace Master, I am completely convinced."

I smiled and didn't say a word. I even felt a little disgusted with this master Tian, ​​and felt that this man was starting to lose some money.

Of course, I didn't say anything. Suddenly, the scene became a little awkward.

When Chen Zhongguo saw this situation, he quickly explained: "Palace Master, Lao Tian is just like this, his mind is not bad, otherwise, he wouldn't put down his figure and become a coffin bearer."

Hearing what he said, my curiosity was aroused, and I looked at Lao Tian, ​​wondering, "Why do you want to be a coffin bearer?"

He bowed slightly towards me respectfully, and explained: "Master, it's like this, I am indeed rich, but now I don't have much interest in doing business, I just want to do more good things, and the coffin-bearer profession , Sending people to rest in peace is a great charity, and I want to use the rest of my life to give back to society."

Giving back to society?

I glanced at him in surprise, and asked, "Did you do something wrong when you were young?"

He hummed, and said in a low voice: "I did it, and being a coffin bearer now is considered atonement. I thought of becoming a monk, but I realized that things in the world of mortals are not complete, so I became a coffin bearer."

Ok!

It seems that every coffin bearer has his own story.

I nodded slightly, looked at Master Liu next to him, and said with a smile, "What about you, why are you the coffin bearer?"

He smiled honestly and said: "To tell you the truth, I don't have the high life sentiment of Lao Tian. I only do this business for money. However, Palace Master, don't worry, although I am here to make money, I definitely don't I will make money against my conscience."

I nodded in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Okay, money is just a spice of life, but it's definitely not the whole of life. If you don't forget your original intention, you will always be there."

"The palace lord taught me that."

Lao Tian and Lao Liu said in unison.

Seeing this, I nodded and didn't dwell on this issue any longer. I looked at Chen Zhongguo and said in a low voice, "Now we are the only coffin bearers left, so you can talk."

Chen Zhongguo grabbed a stool and sat down opposite me, while Lao Tian and Lao Liu sat down on the left and right of him.

Just as he sat down, Chen Zhongguo frowned and said, "Palace Master, there is something that I can't understand."

"What's the matter?" I asked.

He said: "It's like this. You asked the village chief and the others to catch the snake. If I remember correctly, you said that Jiang Xiaoyan's birthday horoscopes all coincide with the twelve zodiac signs, and snakes also belong to the twelve zodiac signs!"

I smiled slightly. When I asked the village chief and the others to catch snakes, I knew that Chen Zhongguo would definitely ask this question.

At the moment, I didn't hide anything, so I said, "It's like this. In the world of metaphysics, snakes are also called small dragons. Since then, the positioning of snakes has become very broad. From another perspective, in the twelve The snake in the zodiac should not be called a snake, it should be called a python."

After all, I glanced at the three of them and continued: "I asked them to catch snakes for three reasons. One is that snakes are dark things, and funerals are white things. Yin and white play a shocking role. The second is that snakes belong to the Liumen of the four gates, it is said that they are not as good as yellow skins, but they should be effective, and the third is that snakes are more popular, snake skins are also easy to obtain, and there is an advantage in time."

Just as I finished speaking, Chen Zhongguo nodded, "So that's the case, but, Palace Master, I don't know how many snake skins you need."

I didn't hide anything, so I said, "Of course, the more the better!"

While speaking, I stared closely at Chen Zhongguo, and said in a deep voice, "Now tell me, why stop using yellow leather?"
