Yin Changsheng

Chapter 22 Yin Yang Money

When I heard their discussion, I took a deep breath in my heart. I didn't want them to slander Jiang Li behind my back, so I quickly stepped forward and shouted, "Uncle and aunt!".

The sudden sound of my arrival made them all very embarrassed, they exchanged glances, kept silent on this topic, greeted me with a smile, and asked me what I was doing.

I answered briefly, "Master asked me to buy yellow paper."

On the way to the mourning hall, I was silent, and they also noticed it, so they stopped talking.

Back at the mourning hall, they went straight to my father and grandma. I took the yellow paper to Jiang Li and handed the things to him. Jiang Li took the yellow paper and glanced at me: "What's wrong? Eat bitter melon gone?"

I thought about it, but didn't tell Jiang Li about these things.

The few neighbors and folks who came with me before have already talked to grandma in front of grandma. Maybe they didn't notice that Jiang Li and I were here, and their voices could be heard intermittently. Jiang Li stood by and looked over there.

The aunts were chatting with grandma, "Grandma, isn't this Master Jiangli so talented? Why have everyone in your family died one after another after you came here, you should be careful!"

Another aunt also echoed, "That's right, who knows what that person is thinking! After all, he is an outsider, and he will definitely not help us sincerely. Don't hurt Chen Xiao too."

Grandma didn't say a word there, but her expression has changed. I know grandma, she is a very xenophobic person. Although Jiang Li has done so much for our family, in her eyes, Jiang Li's words are still inferior to her. Take the words of the three aunts and six wives.

I thought Jiang Li would be angry when he heard these words, but Jiang Li smiled, stretched out his hand and patted my head: "Fang is the way of life, roundness is the foundation of one's life, and Fang Yuan is the only way to survive for a long time. Fool Don’t get rid of things but don’t get rid of the mind, a wise man can get rid of the mind and don’t get rid of things. If you cultivate yourself well enough, you won’t be influenced by other people’s words, just don’t look at it, don’t think about it.”

I said yes, but I was still a little unhappy.

Jiang Li said again: "I'm a little tired, you can go back with me, I have something to tell you."

I've never heard Jiang Li talk about being tired before. I thought he didn't know how tired he was, so I was a little surprised when I heard his words. But after thinking about it, he worked so hard, but he still had to be pointed at behind his back. To put it another way, other people would be physically and mentally exhausted, and it was normal for him to be tired.

Jiang Li and I left the mourning hall and returned home. After returning home, Jiang Li did not rest. Instead, he took out an iron circle seal from his bag, and used this circle seal to inquire about the yellow paper I bought. Beat up.

Tap it once, and a mark in the shape of a copper coin will be left on the yellow watch paper. I looked at it strangely and asked him: "Master, what is this?"

Jiang Li said: "This is called money seal. The yellow paper you usually buy and the yin and yang money printed on the outside can't be used down there. Only the yellow paper printed with the money seal can really circulate down here."

In the past, during festivals, grandpa would often burn paper money for the deceased ancestors, but most of them were Yin-Yang money with smaller denominations printed outside. I asked grandpa why not buy larger denominations, and grandpa said the denominations were too large , cannot be found below.Every time the paper was burned, Grandpa would burn an extra stack, saying that it was to bribe the people below, so that the people below would send the yin and yang money to the ancestors.

Jiang Li was fiddling with the yellow paper until early in the morning. Jiang Li looked at me who was yawning, and handed the printed yellow paper to me and said, "Go to your grandpa's house at one o'clock in the morning tonight. The mourning hall, take all these yin and yang money with you."

I nodded, "Do you want to burn these yin and yang money to Grandpa Yao?"

Jiang Li shook his head and said, "This yin and yang money is not for you to burn. Your grandfather's soul has been hidden by others. If the ghosts in the underworld can't find his soul, they will definitely go to the mourning hall to make trouble tonight. There are some things I'm not fit to show up, you have to deal with this matter."

I blinked, thinking that Jiang Li was wrong, let me handle such a big matter?With a bitter look on his face, he said, "Master, I can't..."

Jiang Li saw that I was not confident, so he told me in detail, "People in the underworld also change, they also have emotions, you can just treat them as ordinary people like us, if the people below make trouble today , you just use these yin and yang money to buy them off, and I will teach you a few more words, which will come in handy when I see them."

Jiang Li then said a few words to me about what those people in the underworld would say later, and then patted me on the shoulder and let me go to the mourning hall.

This is the first time that Jiang Li entrusted me to do things alone. Although I feel guilty, I feel that it is a very proud thing. I guess the time is almost up, so I hurriedly took a bag of yin and yang money and ran to the mourning hall of Grandpa Yao. .

There are not many people in the mourning hall at this point, and generally those who can keep watch until this point are some relatives who are usually close.

The mourning hall was quite lively before, but now it is basically quiet. I ran all the way to the mourning hall, stood at the door of the mourning hall and looked inside. At least 1.8 meters, black robes covered them tightly, only showing a cold face, and a dark iron chain was slung across their shoulders.

The second grandfather, father, grandmother and some other neighbors and folks stood on both sides and stared at these two people in horror.

When I saw the two of them face to face, I was stunned, not because they were the messengers of the underworld, but because I had seen them two years ago.

There used to be rumors about the ecstasy in the village. Before, there was an old man in the village who had stomach cancer. When he was dying, everyone in the village went to the old man’s house to see the old man for the last time. We stayed in front of the old man’s bed until midnight. I couldn’t hold back my urine. , I didn’t dare to go out to pee alone, so I asked my grandpa to accompany me with a flashlight.

The countryside is not so particular. When I was peeing under the eaves, I saw two black shadows next to the old man’s cattle pen. I quickly pointed them out to my grandpa. Grandpa flashed a flashlight to see them. Those two people looked at me. I also remember their appearance clearly, that is, the two people in the mourning hall are dressed exactly the same as two years ago.

But when they saw me, they left. When my grandpa and I went back to the house, the old man on the bed yelled 'Mola, I won't go', and died.

This is the seduction of a soul that I have seen with my own eyes, and I have heard more about the seduction of the spirit of the messenger of the underworld.

I recognized both of them. The second grandfather and the villagers naturally knew who they were. How could a living person dare to fight with the people in the underworld?

Before I could think too much, one of the two men said, "Chen Jiaxing eats his own brother's oil. He committed a heinous crime. The City God asked us to take him down by name. But the two of us searched around here and couldn't find Chen Jiaxing. Soul, it is only possible that you hid it for him, humans and ghosts go their own way, I advise you to hand over his soul as soon as possible."

When they were talking, they kept their eyes on Second Grandpa. Obviously, they thought it was Second Grandpa who hid Grandpa Yao's soul.

Where did the nearby villagers encounter this kind of thing? Before, they only heard about the ecstasy messenger, but now that they saw it with their own eyes, they dare not even say a word.

It was the second grandfather who boldly replied: "I don't know where my brother's soul has gone. I know you two are here to seduce the soul. Can you see if we can send my brother up the mountain first..."

"No." Before the second grandpa finished speaking, they flatly refused, "Since you know what we do, don't hide it. I know that you three brothers of the Chen family all have some skills. Things, only you can do it, I will give you a few seconds to think about it, if not, I will hook up all the members of your Chen family, don't think that we don't know what the members of your Chen family have done, if It wasn't someone who protected you, we would have taken you down long ago."

The second grandpa glanced at his father and grandma, his face was very embarrassed.

Regarding my mother's matter, what father and grandma did is as disgraceful as possible. If the people in the underworld really want to use this matter as an issue, whether father and grandma can keep it is up to them. uncertain.

Seeing that the two men were about to remove their iron chains, I took a few deep breaths and walked in boldly.

As soon as I went in, the second grandpa yelled at me: "Damn it, what are you doing here? Hurry up and go back to the room for me to sleep."

The second grandpa yelled at me to let me go, because he was afraid that these two people from the underworld would also follow me.

I didn't dare to look at those two people, I just followed what Jiang Li said, walked to Grandpa Yao's coffin, grabbed a handful of incense, lit them all, and stuck them in the incense altar.

Suddenly the room was filled with smoke, I glanced at those two people again, they really showed a satisfied expression in the smoke, and sucked the smoke greedily.

Jiang Li told me that when people eat, ghosts smell it.Ecstasy messengers are no exception, they also rely on smelling incense to replenish energy, but the underworld is quite harsh on soul ecstasy messengers, it is difficult for them to get enough joss sticks, so at this time, if there are enough joss sticks for them, it may allow them to temporarily Calm down, don't turn your face so quickly.
