Chapter 149 The Weird Event in the Funeral Parlor

"Hey! Is there any other law? Why is my old man so pitiful? He has lived for such a long time without even leaving a whole body. No, you have to give us an explanation, or you will be smashed. business!"

"Yes! I smashed you!"

After walking over, I found that Zhang Feng seemed to be among the crowd, trying to persuade him.Hearing this group of people talking, I probably figured out what was going on.

The old man surnamed Wang, who has been guarding the spirit at home for three days, was sent here by his family to prepare for the funeral.

But when the body was pushed out, the sharp-eyed eldest daughter noticed something was wrong with Lao Wang's face, so she made a fuss and even opened the glass cover on the coffin without authorization.

As she said, after opening it, she immediately opened the old man's slightly opened mouth, and found that the tongue in his mouth had disappeared.The relatives and friends present couldn't let it go, and the scene just now appeared.

I told an honest old man next to me, whether the old man lost his tongue when he delivered it.But he definitely said that it was not the case. The old Wang family was superstitious. When he put ancient coins in the old man's mouth before going out, he saw with his own eyes that there was still a tongue in the mouth.

According to what he said, it is probably the problem of the undertaker.Quickly pushed away the crowd, and walked towards the battered Zhang Feng.

"I said, it's almost done, don't pull my clothes! Wait, sister, I'll go find them. Hey, don't push, don't push, someone stepped on my foot."

Seeing that Zhang Feng was tortured so much by these people, I hurriedly turned my clothes inside out and put on the other side of the Taoist robe. Then I gathered my hair and stepped in front of him. I turned around and said to my subordinates: "Okay, okay. , The dead are buried on the ground, and there is no quarrel. Mencius said: In order to send the dead away as an important matter, the relatives retreat outside the door, and wait for me to go and find out the truth!"

Everyone finally calmed down when they saw me calm and composed, wearing a Taoist robe and slipping out a set of short words.Zhang Feng whispered in my ear: "You really have a few tricks up your sleeve."

"That is."

Just when I was elated, the eldest sister in front came up to me and said with a sad face: "Master, listen to me, their funeral parlor is really bullying people. I"

I waved my hand at her and said, "Sister, it's useless to say these things now, it's more important to get down to business. If you delay the time, it will be disrespectful to the deceased."

I said this because I was afraid that she would babble endlessly, so I hurriedly turned around and walked into the back hall with Zhang Feng, discussing with the mortician to ask.

When I came to the back hall, I obviously felt that the inside was gloomy, which was in stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of people outside.I found the embalmer's office, and before I entered the room, a woman came out of it.

"Hey, why is it you?"

I can't remember this woman's name for a while, but I will never forget her appearance in my life, because she looks so much like Sun Jing.My computer was sold to me by her, why does she switch to this now?
When she saw me, she also froze for a moment, scratching her head, as if she didn't remember the other person's name just like me.I simply shook hands with her and introduced myself.

"Let's get to know each other again, my name is Thirteen, Jiang Chun's friend."

"I just remember your name. It seems to be a number. I didn't think of it for a while. It's too embarrassing. My name is Li Xinyu. By the way, why did you come here?"

After talking about what happened just now, she understood. Seeing me wearing a Taoist robe, she quickly asked me why I changed my career to become a Taoist priest.

"Leave me alone, why have you changed from an electrical tycoon to an embalmer?"

She said with a smile, that the computer stand was actually opened by her father, and she had nothing to do after graduation, so she helped out temporarily.Later, her family persuaded her to take the civil service exam. After passing the exam, she entered the Civil Affairs Bureau, and came here by accident.

"I'm not a mortician, I'm just a civil servant here to make a form." After Li Xinyu finished speaking, Zhang Feng hurriedly asked her who put on old man Wang's makeup today.

"Sister Song, I've been too busy these days. Wait a minute. I'll go and see the registration form."

After following her into the office, she found that the place was even more deserted. Being in this kind of working environment all year round, I'm afraid I can't stand it no matter how good my health is.

But now, there are still a lot of people who squeeze their heads into this kind of unit.As the saying goes, there are 360 ​​professions, and the best in each profession needs someone to do it. No matter what industry it is, even if it seems to be a bad industry, someone must do it.

Funeral homes can be said to be a monopoly industry. As long as someone dies, they will be handled by the funeral home. Just like hospitals, there will be no off-seasons throughout the year, at least there is no need to worry about unemployment.

Secondly, the treatment in this unit is quite good.Zhang Feng and I watched her cough and rummage through the forms, feeling that her physical condition seemed to be worse now than when we saw her in the hospital.

So I asked her: "When I saw you for the first time, I thought you were not in good health. If you want me to tell you, I want to find another way to make a living, so don't do it here."

She didn't speak, she just smiled, her sweet dimples suddenly revealed.Turning around to look at Zhang Feng, he was almost crying, so he quickly yelled at him.

"I found it, it's all right, just recently I have a fever and my brain is not working, let me take a look." She looked at the form for a while, and then said with certainty: "It's Sister Song, she came to me just now. "

After listening to her talk, I had an idea, and quickly asked her about this Sister Song.

But she said that she didn't like to talk very much, so she came to work here for a year, and she didn't get close to anyone.All I know is that Sister Song is always elusive and often appears silently, scaring her several times.

Well, so to speak, Sister Song is indeed very suspicious, but after thinking about it, why did she cut off his tongue and drink?

I kept these doubts in my stomach and didn't say them. In the funeral home, I can't afford this kind of joke.So he greeted Zhang Feng and wanted to go out to find Sister Song's whereabouts.

"Let me lead you to find it. It's pitch black in broad daylight. Don't get lost." After Li Xinyu finished speaking, he took out a flashlight from his pocket, checked to see if it was still charged, and led us out of the office.

As the old saying goes, you have to call someone when you enter a house, and you have to worship a god when you enter a temple.If you enter this funeral parlor, you have to say a few symbolic words.Li Xinyu was in front. Hearing me chanting in a low voice, he smiled and said to me, "Don't talk about it, you are still pretty decent."

"I can't help it, the patriarch enjoys the meal." Zhang Feng gave me a sideways look. I don't know what he meant. Could it be that he was jealous of me and Li Xinyu's teasing?
I leaned into his ear and asked in a low voice, "Are you interested in her?"

Although he didn't answer my question, I could tell that he fell in love with Li Xinyu at first sight.

Hey, that's right, he can't be alone all the time, he finally has someone he likes, how can I put it this way, as a junior, I have to help out.It can be regarded as worthy of the master and his old man.

Not long after, we found Sister Song in this labyrinth-like building.After seeing her figure, I specially closed my eyes to feel if there was any resentment or evil spirit in her body, but I found that she was similar to ordinary people.

After we explained the purpose of coming, a surprised expression appeared on her face, and then she said to us: "No, let me think about it, I remember, when I finished putting on makeup, I went out for a while, is it possible Someone cut off my tongue while I was away."

Seeing that she wasn't flustered, and we couldn't continue to ask, Zhang Feng thought for a while and said to her: "Why don't you go out with us and explain to the family members, and then discuss how to deal with this matter? .”

Sister Song is not the kind of unreasonable person. Hearing what Zhang Feng said, she quickly took out her mobile phone and called the deputy curator. After explaining, Zhang Feng was relieved when the phone said that compensation could be made.

With the close cooperation of Zhang Feng, me, and the undertaker, Sister Song, we finally put all the blame on a cat.

"Hey, seeing that your attitude is okay, we won't pursue it anymore, but you can't raise cats here, that thing is old and evil."

Old man Wang's eldest daughter was talking endlessly, so I hurried forward and said, "Sister, you are right, but these are wild cats, we can't catch them all, right? That's fine, you are here Just sign and forget about it. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid we'll miss a good time."

Seeing that the eldest sister was stunned by what I said and agreed to the compensation from the funeral home, Zhang Feng quickly walked to the podium and began to host the farewell ceremony.While everyone was mourning the death of Mr. Wang, I was still thinking about Sister Song's words in my mind.

In the dark, I always feel that this thing will happen again, but now I really don't want to care about it, maybe it was really the wild cat, and I can't say for sure.

When leaving, I asked Li Xinyu for his cell phone number, and then introduced Zhang Feng to her.Zhang Feng basically has no shortcomings except that he is a little older.He has a heroic face and looks like an upright person, which adds a lot of points to his impression.

"By the way, where is Jiang Chun now?"

"You said my sister, she has also come here, and formed an etiquette company with her friends. You know her mouth, she is the most suitable to be the master of ceremonies."

I thought, the two of them are one white and one red, and they have taken care of both the dead and the living.

After saying goodbye, Zhang Feng was a little reluctant to leave and asked me questions in the car.I didn’t know Li Xinyu very well, so I told him everything I knew.

When she returned to the store, Zhang Ling was still chatting with Jiang Shan. After seeing Zhang Feng, she hurriedly urged him to invite him to dinner.I don't know what Zhang Ling said to Jiang Shan. In short, she seems to be in a better mood than ever, so she didn't ask.
