Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 32 032. Silver Finger Marks

E Nu buys water very quickly.

As soon as the incense was half burned, the man came back.

The little girl was shivering from the cold, and came to grandma with a bowl of water in her hand.

Then wept again.

"Don't cry."

Li Zhen stopped chanting, and after saying a word, he shouted loudly:
"The living avoid!!"

Except for one coffin-carrying Eight Immortals who were about the same age as Shopkeeper Sun, the others either left the house or turned around in the yard.

Li Zhen did not.

He is a Taoist priest, not in the world of mortals.

And the old man who carried the coffin of the Eight Immortals was either dumb or deaf...

In short, one must have one skill in order to cope with this job.

After everyone who was supposed to turn around turned around, the old man stepped forward, pressed the cloth on Old Mrs. Zheng's face with one hand, and then pressed it with a clever technique, so that the back of Old Zheng's neck was suspended in the air.

Then, the hand that was pressing on Old Mrs. Zheng's face was drawn from her waist, and out of nowhere, a ball of sackcloth was pulled out and covered Old Mrs. Zheng's upper body.Only then did Li Zhen say to E Nu:
"Put your hand inside and cleanse grandma!"

E Nu's face was full of fear.

stop moving forward.

Seeing this, Li Zhen said softly:
"Don't worry, grandma will be very happy. After washing away the filth, let's make grandma feel at ease."

Only then did E Nu tremblingly wet the cloth in her hand with water, and put her hand into the linen cloth.

……

After a lot of busy work, from cleansing to changing into decent clothes, finally, the Eight Immortals carried the corpse and put it into the coffin.

And some neighbors have already spread out a roll of mats for E Nu, and covered it with some tattered clothes, so as not to let her be so cold when she kneels.

After E'nu knelt down while crying, Li Zhen also sat down on the futon again and began to recite scriptures.

Neighbors came forward one by one to express their condolences. Whether they bowed or kowtowed, E Nu always kowtowed in return.

Then, the neighbors who came to express their condolences cried twice, and finally got up and bowed to leave.

During the whole process, Li Zhen in the room was chanting scriptures.

Mrs. Zheng has been delayed for a day.

He will read the scriptures for the day today until early tomorrow morning.

Because the third day is the funeral.

He may have to follow the funeral.

Who made him accept this job...

Very bitter, very tired, very boring.

But when he thought of those people who had helped him when he was most helpless, he couldn't just sit idly by.

And the time at this moment... has come to noon.

……

Tongfuju.

It was raining and snowing outside the window.

The atmosphere on the first floor of the restaurant was even more icy cold.

Shopkeeper Qu's heart, liver, spleen, stomach and kidneys were trembling this morning. Looking at the person sitting at the table closest to the counter with a pot of wine, a plate of fried beans, and wearing a fox fur, he felt that his hands and feet would be extremely cold.

The grown-up... came right from the opening of the tavern.

Then... just sat there all morning.

Not a word.

But it made shopkeeper Qu feel like he was in hell.

Ox-nosed... No, Li Daochang... How dare you let that pigeon go! ! !
Didn't we agree yesterday?

This morning, three heads!
How dare you release this lord's pigeon! ?
you you you……

Are you dying!

But at this moment, the adult's jug was empty, but the beans were full, and he didn't eat a few at all.

But shopkeeper Qu didn't dare to change it...

I'm afraid that this lord will take out the sword that looks like nothing ordinary from his waist, and cut off his own head.

I didn't even dare to move the place all morning.

This will be almost unbearable.

But what to do! ?

But at this moment, just when shopkeeper Qu was struggling with "should I refill this lord's pot of wine", Lord Huqiu suddenly stood up.

Shopkeeper Qu's heart suddenly rose to his throat.

then……

"Da Da~"

A small silver bean fell on the table.

Master Huqiu seemed to have not seen shopkeeper Qu, so he just left.

"???"

Shopkeeper Qu was stunned...

But after the other party left, the breath in his heart seemed to be vented, and he slumped directly behind the counter.

"Huh...huh...huh..."

He was panting violently.

There was no strength left in his body.

And at this moment, there was a rush of footsteps at the door.

"The shopkeeper... the shopkeeper!"

Out of breath, Zhang Xiaoer ran into the house wet all over.

"... from the shopkeeper?"

Seeing no one, Zhang Xiaoer was taken aback.

Suddenly, I heard a weak voice from inside the counter:

"I'm here……"

Zhang Xiaoer probed:

"Oh! It's from the shopkeeper!"

He quickly walked around the counter, and after helping his shopkeeper up, he asked in a panic:
"What's wrong with you, shopkeeper!!"

Shopkeeper Qu shook his head, firmly grasping Zhang Xiaoer's hand:
"Where is that bull nose!!!"

He gritted his teeth with a hideous face.

The fact that Zhang Xiaoer was caught was a pain... But he didn't dare to delay, he said quickly:
"I just found out that at Xishikou, the hunchbacked old lady Zheng who specializes in washing clothes for people is dead! Daochang Li has gone to do things for people!"

"……What!?"

Shopkeeper Qu really wanted to kill Li Zhen right now.

A hunchbacked old lady died... You bastard actually went to do things for others?

How much can a hunchbacked old lady give you! ?

I'm happy to hear that from the grown-up, isn't the money big? !

It's good now, people must be offended...

Maybe even I will hate it too!
Niubi!
You are so inhuman!
My chicken was killed in vain! ?

But after thinking about it, he was really scared.

Quickly said to Zhang Xiaoer:

"Hurry up and call the person back to me!!!"

"Ah... yes!"

Zhang Xiaoer nodded, and quickly ran out of the restaurant again.

The shopkeeper Qu felt more or less relieved, he held the counter with his hands and heaved a sigh of relief, he walked to the table where Master Huqiu had sat, and picked up the silver bean on the table.

This jug of wine and fried beans must not cost so much money.

Earned for nothing!
People also found...

As long as you call over, no matter if the adult comes by himself in the afternoon, or...sends someone to arrest him, at least he has something to say.

If you want to grab it, just grab it, the matter is caused by that bull nose, it has nothing to do with me...

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt that something was wrong with this silver bean.

Looking down...

"Sigh~~~~"

I saw a clear outline of finger marks on the silver bean.

Could it be that the adult pinched it?

my mom!

How much strength is this?Only then can I forcibly pinch a fingerprint on this silver bean! ?
How angry you are to be like this! ?

Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Qu's complexion became paler and paler, gradually turning pale.

I just feel that this bean seems to weigh a thousand catties.

At the same time... Looking around at the empty wine shop because he didn't dare to stay longer because he saw this lord, he cursed secretly in his heart:
"Ox-nosed...you have hurt me!!!"
