The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 291 Xiaoan Returns
For the next period of time, the days passed quite peacefully.The people in Yumen were frightened by Fu Nan, so they stopped for a while. After the end of the new year, Shenzhen also returned to its former prosperity and bustle. The office began to have more work. From time to time, customers also came to ask for some strange things. weird stuff.It is quite common to look for cats and dogs. Some people have lost a human-faced spider and come to us. I take the customer out and tell him that we don’t know how to count the spider’s birthday.

After about a month, Zhou Xuanye contacted his friend and said to help me find Fu An.Zhou Xuanye’s friend is a man in his 50s with black and yellow skin, small eyes, and a flat nose. He wears thick clothes in winter and a pair of slippers underneath. He came to our office in a sloppy manner. I don’t know his name. , Zhou Xuanye respected him a lot.

This person looked at our office with disgust, and he was quite dedicated. After eating a meal, he started working that night.

Before starting work, he said that regardless of whether Fu An's previous god was still there, he could no longer use it now, so he had to create a new god.The god position is actually a place where ghosts live. There are various shapes, so there is no need to tangle.Zhou Xuanye took out a kit that he usually used to put talismans, let me drip some blood into it, and wrote Fu An's birth date on the kit and handed it to the person, making a simple god table up.

When the door was closed and locked at night, the man asked us to open a window facing west, moved a table to the west, and set up an incense case on it. Looking at Fu An's new altar, he drew a talisman on the altar with his right hand and muttered something. After a while, he put a triangular talisman that he had prepared in advance into the water bowl.

The talisman soaked in water, and quickly sank to the bottom of the bowl. Just as I was curious to see what he would do next, the man directed me and motioned me to stand in front of the desk. Immediately afterwards, he said: " call his name."

name?
I nodded and shouted, "Fu An!"

The man jumped up immediately, and said to Zhou Xuanye: "Why is this little apprentice you accepted so stupid? Who told you to shout so loudly in the middle of the night? The ghost scared you to death." on my ass.I held my butt and felt very aggrieved. He said to shout. Shout, isn’t it just to shout loudly?If it is not loud, it is called 'reading'!He had to read it out instead of shouting it out, and I wouldn't be so loud.

If it weren't for seeing that he was older than me, I really wanted to give this kick back.

Zhou Xuanye smiled and said: "You are joking, I am not qualified to accept apprentices, Tian Gu is my new brother, he is very honest, don't punish him."

That man was very respectful to Zhou Xuanye, he looked me up and down and said: "It's really too much to be honest. Since it's your brother, I have to take care of it. Boy, come here." She was already quite close to him, so she took a slight step forward.The man stared and said: "Come closer, you're not a girl, you're afraid I'll eat you!"

I'd like to get closer, but the question is, how long has it been since you took a shower?The smell on his body is heavier than that of the tramp outside.

I took another two steps forward, and this man fumbled for a long time from the cloth bag he was hanging on, then suddenly took out a fan and handed it to me, saying: "Zhou Xuanye's eyesight must be the same, I am an old man too." I can't treat you badly, this is a meeting gift for you, please keep it." Is the co-author a Taoist priest?

But this meeting gift...a fan?
It's winter right now!
But since people have the heart to give gifts, they think highly of me, so naturally I can't pick and choose, so I thanked them and accepted them, and didn't bother to look at the specific style of the fan.After sending the meeting gift, he motioned me to continue calling my name, don't stop until he says yes.

This time I learned to be good, and I whispered Fu An's name silently. After ten minutes of reading, he didn't let me stop. Just when I was a little anxious, suddenly, the man said: "Here we are." The bowl of clear water suddenly had slight ripples.You know, there is no wind right now.Our hair didn't even move, how did the water move?

At the moment when the water ripples fluctuated, a gust of wind suddenly blew from the open window.The wind was gloomy and swirled, and some talisman papers on the left hand side of the table were blown around immediately, and then, a very weak voice suddenly sounded in my ear: "Stop screaming, it's too noisy."

Hearing this familiar voice, I couldn't even mention how excited I was, and hurriedly said, "Xiao An, are you okay?" Although it spoke to me, it didn't show itself. Could it be that it was too worn out?

"It's been wandering outside for more than a month, do you think there's something wrong?" While talking, the blue smoke rising from the table vaguely formed a vague human figure, and then, the blue smoke penetrated into the room. In the kit bag in Zhou Xuanye's hand.

I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was finally done, but Fu An has been wandering outside for too long, and now he is too weak, and probably won't have the time to talk to me, so I didn't call him anymore, and immediately put on a stick of incense, After paying tribute to the god, he turned to thank the man.

At this moment, he was chatting with Zhou Xuanye, he waved his hand when he heard the words, indicating that you don't have to thank me, and ignored me.This person should not be familiar with Tan Ren, so he didn't pay much attention to Tan Ren. Seeing that Fu An had found it, Tan Ren held the tablet and made persistent efforts, sending money to others.

Damn, his skills are appallingly poor, but fortunately he plays small, otherwise he would really lose his fortune.

During the chat, I heard Zhou Xuanye call that person 'Uncle Gao'. Zhou Xuanye is 32 years old, so calling him that is actually a bit inappropriate. Generally, there is only one possibility in this situation, and that is that this person may have a higher seniority.

This uncle Gao didn't rush to leave when he came, so he just stayed here as a guest.The office's room was just right, and it was impossible for him to sleep in the room of a girl named Tang Linlin, so he squeezed me in.Fortunately, Fu Nan's kid's bed is still there, each sleeps in its own, and it's not crowded.The only thing I can't stand is that he doesn't take a shower, and the smell of feet permeates the room. I'm embarrassed to say him, so I can only open the window, but as soon as I open the window, he finds it cold, which almost choked me to death.

You don’t feel cold when you walk around in these slippers in winter, but now it’s too cold?
However, apart from the fact that he doesn't take a bath, this person is a little bit crushing. In other respects, this person doesn't stick to small details. The next day, he asked me to take him to stroll around various scenic spots in Shenzhen, hook shoulders, eat, drink and have fun. Yes, a bit like an old urchin, not like a 50-year-old Taoist priest at all.

Although Uncle Gao disliked me very much, I knew he should have a good impression of me in his heart, otherwise he would not have left the address of his temple before leaving and invited me to play when he had time.

After he left, I remembered the fan I had pressed at the bottom of the box. I took it out and opened it, and found that there were two big characters written on it: Chunyang.

Although I don't know calligraphy, and I can't tell what kind of font it is, but when I see these two characters, it gives people a sense of majesty, chic and unrestrained. There is also a seal on the bottom. Look at the color of the seal and the color of the fan. , this fan should be quite old.

I didn't recognize it, so I went to ask Zhou Xuanye for advice.Zhou Xuanye was very surprised after watching it, and said: "I can't tell that Uncle Gao treats you differently. This fan has been specially treated and it will not rot for hundreds of years. You should smell it carefully." I have already smelled it. There is a smell similar to agarwood on this fan, mixed with some medicinal smell.

Zhou Xuanye said: "The bones of this fan are made by Lao Shuichen. The fan surface has been treated with drugs. The craftsmanship should be from the Ming Dynasty. It can be sold for a good price if it is resold."

I didn't expect this fan to be so powerful, and I was surprised: "I actually accepted such a heavy gift from him. No matter how poor I am, I can't resell gifts from others."

Zhou Xuanye laughed loudly, and said: "Then you can take him with you, or hang it on the bedside, to ensure that you will not attract mosquitoes all year round." I think this method is good, so I bought a fan holder the next day and put it on the bed. The fan was opened and placed on the shelf, and it was placed in the living room as a decoration.

Tan Ren was a little surprised, and said lightly: "What are you doing here?"

"We need to use good things together. In summer, we can save money on mosquito coils, and by the way, we can also save money on incense."

Tan Ren glanced at me and said, "Save money for mosquito coils? It's as if I didn't pay you a salary."

"By the way, when it comes to salary, shouldn't this month's salary be paid? Brother Zhou said double it for me!"

"What?" Tan Ren obviously didn't know about this matter, immediately put down the tablet, and went to settle accounts with Zhou Xuanye angrily.

Does everyone encounter such a stingy boss in their life?
