"What attitude?" I pointed at the door and shouted, "I shouldn't have brought you here."

Fat Dahai hurriedly pulled me back to the room, and Ma Di smiled and said, "Li Yang, if you are nice, don't say it well. You are obviously concerned, but you insist on making the two of you quarrel. Are you two tired?"

I smiled wryly, anyway, every time I came out with Liang Yue, it was like this.My usual personality can be considered gentle, even when I am with Liang Yue, we are always like a happy couple.The so-called friends don't get together, we are happy friends, when we get together, it's always not peaceful.

But after all, when I first arrived in a strange place, especially when a girl was alone in a room, I was more or less worried.

Pang Dahai smiled and said: "Boss, you don't have to worry so much. Liang Yue's skill is already powerful. This time I have cultivated internal strength again. I guess the three of us may not be able to beat her when we are bundled together. You should be worried. She is right to be worried about us."

I glared at the fat man: "Are you sorry for saying that? Sometimes some things can't be solved by force."

I don't know what's going on, but when I came to this town, I really felt different from other places, and I was always worried that something would happen.

Fortunately, worry is nothing to worry about. It is indeed like what they said, our luck is not so bad every time, and accidents do not happen everywhere we go.

The next day I knocked on Liang Yue's door, and I was relieved when she appeared in front of me safe and sound.

After a night's rest, everyone's spirits improved a lot. We ate something at the food stall outside the hotel, and we drove away from the hotel.

The address my third uncle gave me was to find Huang Wenbai at the Huangji Shoucai Shop in Longpan Town.There is no detailed address on it. Pang Dahai drove the car, and we almost traveled all over Longpan Town, but we couldn't find any Huangji Shoucai Shop.

Liang Yue said: "Did your third uncle make a mistake? In this day and age, how can anyone sell coffins? If they sell urns, it's almost the same."

I think so, indeed, there are no such shops on the street anymore.

Pang Dahai volunteered and said, "Don't worry, I'll go down and ask, people in the town will definitely know."

With that said, the fat man stopped the car, got out of the car and went into a grocery store next to the street.

Not half a minute after the fat man went in, I saw him running out with his head in his arms.

A woman was chasing after him, with a broom in her hand, and beat Pang Dahai hard.

"What's going on?" I was startled and wanted to get out of the car, but Ma Su grabbed me and said, "Don't meddle."

The fat man got into the car as if fleeing, started the car, and drove away in a hurry, and kept cursing: "The women in this place are too fierce..."

I looked out the back window and saw the woman waving a broom and standing in the street shouting and cursing.

"Fatty, what's going on, how did you offend her?" I asked curiously.

Before Fat Dahai could speak, Ma Di laughed and said, "You don't need to ask. He must ask people when he enters the door, where is the coffin shop? They haven't opened in the morning, and you ask about the coffin when you enter the door. It's bad luck or not, and you don't have a knife." It would be nice to follow you."

Pang Dahai quibbled: "No way? Don't people say coffins are auspicious words? Coffins, coffins, get promoted and get rich."

Chapter 966

"Hahaha, fat man, did you really ask that? It's not my fault at all. Who would want to get promoted and get rich after hearing about the coffin. They will definitely think you're making trouble. If people tell you about the coffin early in the morning, Are you happy?" I laughed.

"Ah? That seems to be the case. Then...how else can I ask." The fat man had a naive look on his face.

"One stick, you don't know how to ask strategically?" Liang Yue couldn't help laughing either.

Pang Dahai said aggrievedly: "Why are you all talking about me? Why don't you ask if you know so well, and let me go."

Liang Yue laughed and said, "Who told you to go, didn't you volunteer it?"

The four of us, one old and three young, talked and laughed, making the atmosphere very relaxed.

It doesn't matter whether things are done or not, it's good to be in a good mood.

Since last night, we haven't made any progress here, we haven't even touched the side of the coffin shop, but none of us are in a hurry.If the third uncle were here, he would have been in a hurry and urged us to do this and that.

They talked and joked with each other, but things had to go on.The coffin shop still needs to be found, the living can't be suffocated by urine, we four big living people, we can't be stumped by this little thing.

In the end, Ma Di went down to ask.Don't look at Lao Ma who rarely comes outside, but this time he behaved very strategically.We watched him walk into a pharmacy, first bought some commonly used medicines, and then chatted with the owner.

The owner of the shop is an old man who is about the same age as Ma Di, with a silver beard, he looks like a sitting doctor.

In the car, we watched Ma Di chat with the shop owner for more than 20 minutes before we walked out of the shop.

When he got into the car, he pointed to the front: "I understand, there is indeed a coffin shop, but it is not in the town. Because this kind of shop is no longer allowed. Not only in Longpan Town, but also in the surrounding areas. In the whole town, there is only one family that still makes coffins, not far from the town."

The fat man started the car and drove in the direction Ma Su pointed.

Ma Di said again in the car: "I chatted with the shopkeeper for a while, and he said that the geographical location here is not good, and there are no tourist resources developed. Most of the people in the town have gone out to work. Longpan Township The situation in the several villages under our jurisdiction is almost the same. Few of the people who go out are willing to come back. Therefore, the number of people in this town is getting smaller every year, and sometimes there are not many people in the store in a day. "

I nodded, and we all saw this situation.Could this be why I'm in town and not feeling well?When there are few people, the popularity will be weak, and when the popularity is weak, people who are sensitive to it will feel it.

But I don't think it's all because of this, I shook my head secretly, I always think that my feeling is correct, there is something wrong with this town.

It should not just be the reason for the sparse resident population.

I have also traveled to many places, and I have also been to such villages and towns that lack popularity, but I have never felt this kind of feeling.So I really trust my instincts.

It's just that I didn't tell them my thoughts again. Before I got to the real reason, the feeling is always the feeling.It's not convincing to say it.

So the most urgent thing is to find the contact person my third uncle left for me first.

The route that Ma Di inquired this time should be reliable. Our car drove out of the center of the town, and drove along a road to the periphery for about half an hour, and found that the surrounding area became more and more depressed.

Occasionally, fragmentary houses and buildings can be seen, and it is not known at first glance whether they are inhabited.All in all, it looked lifeless at first glance.

We searched all the way, and finally, between the buildings, we saw a yellow flag hanging weakly in front of the door.

Ma Di pointed: "It should be there. The shopkeeper said that when he saw the flag, it was the coffin shop."

Pang Dahai drove the car closer, and sure enough, at the gate of the courtyard, there was a broken flag and a sign hanging on it.The writing on the sign is faintly visible, and it says Huang Ji Shoucai.

found it.

Fortunately, there is still a sign hanging here, otherwise we really dare not confirm it.

We got out of the car and found that there are not many houses here. At a glance, they are all scattered houses.It's just that these houses are very old, and most of the houses have collapsed, so they look particularly depressed.

Ma Di said: "The shop owner said that this was originally a village, but later on there were fewer and fewer people, and the rest of the people moved out one after another. Some moved to the town, some moved to other places, and some moved to The other villages have gone. So there is only an empty shelf left here. The coffin shop that has not been moved is this coffin shop. Because this kind of coffin shop has long since disappeared in other places. And this kind of shop is not suitable for opening in the center of the town. , so I stayed here forever.”

I nodded: "Since it has been there all the time, it means there is still some business."

Ma Di said: "That's right, in many surrounding villages and towns, there are some old people who have confessed to be buried with birthday materials after they passed away. Even if it is cremation, they must be buried with birthday materials. So this coffin shop has always been open, but Business is not very good."

I waved my hand: "It doesn't matter to us whether it's good or not. We are mainly looking for someone. I just hope that we can find this Huang Wenbai smoothly."

The Huangji Shoucai shop in front of him also seemed to be an old shop.Apart from the fact that the flag and sign look very old, the courtyard walls and gates are also in the old style of the past.

The gate to the courtyard is two wooden doors, the paint on the wooden doors is incomplete and mottled.

Pang Dahai knocked on the door, the door rang a few times, the sound was not low, but there was no movement from inside.

"What's the matter, isn't there no one?" The fat man knocked on the door harder, and finally pushed the wooden door halfway open.

The wooden door creaked open, but it was not locked.

The door opened, and no one came out.We simply stopped calling the door and walked into the yard through the half-open door.

Entering the yard, the first thing you see is that there are more than a dozen pieces of life materials that have been laid in the yard.

Those longevity materials were placed in a haphazard manner in the courtyard, filling up the not-so-large courtyard.

So that it is not easy for us to walk to the main house.

Looking at the coffins all over the yard, even though it is daytime, being in them still feels a little weird.

Fortunately, we have all experienced too many things, and our mental endurance has also been honed, otherwise I don't want to stay here for a minute.

"Is...is anyone there?" Fat Dahai shouted at the main room.

Chapter 967 The Man Sleeping in the Coffin

Fatty shouted out his words, but it was as silent as death.

We glanced at each other and decided to bypass the coffins and knock on the door of the main room.If there is really no one here, we will decide whether to wait or come back later.

"If you want off-the-shelf goods, you can find these in the yard. If you want to order them, just leave the size and birth date on the door, and pick them up in three days."

Just when we were just moving our feet, we suddenly heard such a sound from nowhere.

"what?"

We looked around but saw no one.The sound sounded muffled, and we couldn't tell which direction it was coming from.

I turned around and took a look at the two wooden doors. Sure enough, from the inside, there were many numbers and Chinese characters written on the wooden doors, and there were still a lot of chalk stumps scattered beside the doors.

It seems that those numbers are the size of the coffin, and the Chinese characters are probably the birth date.

It's just that I don't understand, why does the coffin need a person's date of birth?

After that sudden sentence was finished, there was no more movement.We looked for a long time but couldn't find where the person who spoke was.

I had no choice but to raise my voice and said, "Boss, we are not making coffins, but looking for someone. Is there a man named Huang Wenbai here?"

After I finished speaking, there was still a dead silence all around, and no one spoke up.

I quickly added another sentence: "Huang Changfu introduced us."

After finishing these words, a clicking sound was heard in the yard.

I was shocked, and we all turned our heads to look at the past at the same time.

I saw a coffin placed in the yard, and the lid of the coffin was moving.

Someone in the coffin?

Even though it was during the day, this scene made my heart tighten.

However, this incident is not enough to scare us. Even if there is something in the coffin at noon, it will not cause any disturbances.We just feel a little weird looking at it.

"Crack..." The lid of the coffin was lifted aside, and a figure stood up from the coffin.

Standing up was an old man who looked about 60 years old, thin and dry.This body shape is somewhat similar to the old stall.

However, he looks more ruddy than the old man, and there are fewer wrinkles on his face.

The old man may have been lying in the coffin, and his clothes looked wrinkled.He looked at us a few times and nodded: "I am Huang Wenbai."

"Ah, old man Huang, I found you. Why...why are you here..."

Coming from afar, I don't know Huang Wenbai's temperament, so I have to be more polite.

Huang Wenbai jumped out of the coffin, he was not young, but his body was very flexible.

Huang Wenbai patted the coffin and said: "What's the fuss? It's warm in winter and cool in summer. It's sheltered from wind and rain. It's very comfortable to sleep here. Would you like to go in and try it? My craft of making birthday materials is well-known far and near. "

"No, no, no." I hurriedly waved my hand, thinking that this Huang Wenbai is also a weird person, how can someone put someone into a coffin just after meeting?

I think Huang Wenbai was originally a coffin maker, so he didn't have any special feelings about the coffin, just like a carpenter looking at the wooden furniture he made.

But we are different, so it was a bit awkward to hear Huang Wenbai say that, but no one took it to heart.

I finally found Huang Wenbai, and I couldn't see anything special about this Huang Wenbai.We rushed here, mainly for him, but when we first met, I had the feeling that we had come by the wrong place.

This Huang Wenbai looked very capable, but that kind of capable craftsman, not like a person with special talents.

Of course, people should not be judged by their appearance. As for what kind of person this person is, whether we can get some clues about Qianlong Tongbao Wangqian from him, we still need to contact him further.

At this time, Huang Wenbai looked at us again and asked, "You said that Huang Changfu introduced you? Do you have any proof?"

"Certificate?" When I heard it, this question stopped me.

The third uncle asked us to come directly to Huang Wenbai, but he didn't mention any proof.And we didn't expect to need a certificate to meet the owner of a coffin shop?

Seeing our hesitation, Huang Wenbai waved his hand: "Without proof, who can prove that you were introduced by Huang Changfu? I'm sorry, but I'm just a coffin maker. If you don't buy a coffin, you should leave quickly."

Pang Dahai said beside him: "Boss, don't you have Huang Changfu's phone number? You can call him and ask this old man to call Huang Changfu to prove it?"

I nodded, this is a way, I took out the phone and was about to make a call.This Huang Wenbai waved his hand and said: "It's useless, it's useless. Everything is fake now, who knows if someone will pretend to be his voice on the phone? Besides, I have never met him, so I don't know that he is now What's the sound?"

"You haven't met? You..." I was surprised to hear that.

Huang Wenbai waved his hand: "Isn't it strange that we haven't met? Do you have any certificates? If not, please go ahead. I'm busy."

I smiled bitterly and said, "Old man, why do you insist on seeing the certificate? Do you know what we are here for?"

Huang Wenbai sneered and said, "You guys? Didn't you come here for the copper coins?"

The few of us looked at each other, but we didn't expect that Huang Wenbai would directly tell us why we came.

Huang Wenbai then asked: "Am I right? Hehe, you are not the first group of people who came here to get the copper coin. Let's all know people and don't speak secretly. To tell you the truth, Huang Changfu belongs to my family. Uncle, I have to give him face. But if you have no proof, I won't receive you. "

"Huang Changfu is your uncle? His age..."

I want to say that Huang Wenbai's age is about the same as Huang Changfu's uncle.But after thinking about it later, this situation is also normal in family generations, and it is very common for younger generations to be older.

And speaking of it, Huang Wenbai might have some clues about Qianlong Tongbao Wangqian.The third uncle asked us to come here, and it was really the right thing to do.
