The room was so dark that it was impossible to see.
In less than a minute, my mother walked out slowly.
Her dirty, blood-stained cloth had been replaced by a light yellow burial suit.
The shroud was very wide, covering almost all of his feet, and the clothes hanging on both sides also covered his hands.
There was no stain on the exposed neck.
In fact, my mother was not dirty at first.
The only thing disheveled is the hair.
She walked to the wooden table and bent down, placing her head in front of the basin.
I quickly came to the side, scooped up water and poured it on her head.
Her body was too cold, and white gas came out while washing her hair.
The hair was as dry as straw, and even had some knots after being soaked.
I cleaned it carefully and untied the knotted areas.
He Cai'er also prepared shampoo beside the basin in advance. After using it for my mother, her hair soon became clean and soft.
Dry your hair with a towel and spread it over your shoulders.
When my mother looked up, she no longer looked as fierce and gloomy as before.
Three thousand green hair is loose, the oval face is extremely delicate, the bridge of the nose is straight, the light eyebrows are tangible, and the slightly sunken eye sockets have an exotic beauty.
It's just that her skin is too white, sickly white.
The dead silence in her eyes has faded a lot, but when her gaze fell on me, her obsession did not diminish at all, but instead became deeper.
I couldn't help the sourness in my heart, my eyes were hot, and I burst into tears in an instant.
With a bang, I knelt on the ground and kowtowed to my mother three times.
"Sixteen, you shouldn't cry." "Mom, I'm not leaving yet." My mother lowered her head. Her movements were still a bit stiff, but her voice was no longer so hollow.
I wiped my tears, but these words made me cry more.
He Caier said softly: "Sister, let me help you put on makeup."
She opened the makeup box and took out a piece of lipstick first.
My mother didn’t resist either.
After a while, He Caier put down his hand.
My mother has completely changed from the moment before.
Her red lips were a touch of red, and after her light eyebrows were filled in, she had slender willow-leaf eyebrows.
The cheeks were powdered, and the paleness was covered up. At first glance, he no longer looked like a dead person.
The exquisite appearance that has stood still for years still reveals a bit of tranquility.
I also stood up with a smile on my face.
In my heart, I felt a rare joy and relaxation in my life.
I was about to speak when suddenly there were footsteps and banging on the door outside the courtyard.
Two voices sounded almost at the same time. My words were interrupted and I subconsciously looked back.
He Cai'er also became alert and said, "Who?"
At this time, it was already midnight, and no one would be coming.
Either something happened again on the other side of the willow swamp, or it was something else.
The breeze blew, and I felt a sense of disappointment. I immediately looked back, but my mother disappeared.
The sound outside the door was a bit shrill.
"We are looking for someone, Liu Wensan, is he there?" He Caier looked even more alert.
I gave her a wink, signaling for her to go back to the room, and then walked towards the door.
If someone really comes to the door, a wooden door will definitely not be able to stop them. It is better to see who they are.
I opened the courtyard door directly.
Two men were standing outside.
A tall and thin man with a round face, high cheekbones, single eyelids, and no bridge of nose.
He was wearing a suit, and although he was smiling, his smile was fake.
The other one has a long face and is about the same height as me. He is obviously a practitioner.
I noticed that there was a rope hanging around his neck, but something was inside his chest. It should be Gu Jade.
These two people are coming with bad intentions!
I'm also a little annoyed in my heart. They didn't come sooner or later. They came when I wanted to talk to my mother. It's clear that my mother's mood has changed from before, and now she's gone again...
"Mr. Yin Yang, Luo Shiliu, we have heard of your name. The hanging river burst its embankments and released floodwaters into the Yang River. You saved the lives of many people along the river."
The tall and thin man in a suit shook my hand and smiled more, but it made me feel even more fake.
Especially when he said my identity and name.
As expected, the Gou family already knows something about us.
"Is Liu Wensan here? Yesterday we brought gifts to the door. When we saw that he was not at home, we put the things down." He asked again.
There is a saying that reaches out to avoid hitting the smiling person, and this sentence is true.
They brought gifts to my door, and they also said kind words now, and I looked back.
The door is already open.
Liu Wensan walked out wearing a small coat, holding a small wine bottle in his hand and a cigarette in his mouth.
There is still a little redness on the bare head.
He Caier followed behind him.
At the same time, the other door was also opened, and Mrs. He walked to the recliner with her little feet and sat down.
In his hand, he held a mourning stick and knocked it on the ground.
Blind Chen squatted in front of the door frame and smoked. The wolf mastiff was lying on its stomach, its two front legs crossed together, its red eyes darting around.
I made a lot of decisions in my mind and made a gesture of invitation to signal them to come in.
At the same time, Liu Wensan also said: "Yellow croaker is really heavy. What corpse can be worthy of such a heavy yellow croaker?"
He exhaled a puff of smoke and continued: "Although I, Liu Wensan, like money, I am frightened to accept such a large amount. I'd better ask you to carry it away."
The two people entered the yard, and the tall and thin man in a suit smiled and said: "Liu Wensan, the Yangjiang corpse hunter, can fight water ghouls with his red body, and can kill white-haired ones. Together with Mr. Yin Yang Luo Shiliu, he can fight with blood." We've dealt with several evil spirits, but you can't do anything to the nearly a thousand black evil spirits in Yangjiang, so why are you so humble?"
"Of course we came here with some understanding. I know that you know about He Youmin, and the troublesome Meng Xinshu didn't do anything to you. We also heard about Xu Baipi in Neiyang City. .”
The man in the suit spoke slowly and calmly, and his tone was relatively firm.
Liu Wensan frowned and said nothing.
The man continued: "This yellow croaker is something that people who fish for corpses like, and it is also our sincerity. I want to ask you to fish for something, and it is not a corpse. Although there is some danger, the Gou family is well prepared."
"In addition, we have also prepared another thing that we want to give to Mr. Yin Yang."
He raised his hand and took out an envelope.
I tore it open and found several photos!
A black and white one, quite old.
Among them was a man wearing a Tang suit. He was short in stature, had ordinary facial features, and had a mole at the corner of his eyebrow.
There were many people in military uniforms standing next to him, and next to him was a mountain.
The other pictures are in color, and inside they show an old man. He looks very old, wearing a Tang suit, and has gray hair. The angle of this picture is obviously a candid shot.
The old man was playing with the birds in the yard, or doing Tai Chi.
"My name is Gou Huang, and my companion is also a corpse collector, his name is Xie Ming."
"I know that you have encountered some troubles recently and want to find someone. The Gou family has been around for a long time, so they know more things and their eyes are wider."
"We want to invite not only Liu Wensan, but also you. If you agree to help, we will give you more than just this photo."
"This man has great Feng Shui skills and a high status. If you go to him alone, you won't have any chance." Gou Huang still had a kind smile on his face.
I stared at the photo, looking at the man above!
I have already recognized the mountain, which is indeed the base of Neiyang Mountain. I also recognized some buildings, which should be what the Gu family's backyard looked like before.
That was the gate that managed the underground river!
The Gou family arrived suddenly, but what they brought out was even more amazing!
