Inherit the family's old shop

Chapter 225
When the old man said something, I smiled and didn't say anything. I stared and stared twice, and each smiled. After all, he couldn't see me clearly, so why should I? I can see the old fox clearly.There are three sentences in the door, but every sentence has a sense of mystery, this vision, this insight, needless to say. This is also a person who is not born in the world!

Since ancient times, there have been many strangers among the people, but what you said is not wrong at all!

I cupped my hands and smiled, "Master, junior, I would like to ask you, your old name is Gao."

"I don't have a surname Gao and I don't have a big name. I'm just a little old man in the country. How can I get such a reputation!" The old man shook his head and smiled. Taking advantage of you, you should take whatever you want today!"

When the old man said this, the meaning in his words was clear. He is just a little old man in business here. He doesn't care about other gossip and past events. He doesn't ask me why, and I don't ask him for details!
The words are clear, and I can't ask any more questions, so I nodded and answered, and went in and started to buy the things I needed.

I packed up a lot of things such as joss sticks, paper money, yellow paper money, and slightly useful things. After I finished packing, the old man stared at the things in my hand blankly for a moment, "Boy, You... have you found Jiudao Hutong?

"No." I shook my head in a daze.

The old man frowned, "If you didn't find Jiudao Hutong, why did you pack so many things, don't you... Are you really thinking about burning ghost money to worship ancestors at the crossroads in the middle of the night?"

What the old man said, I was really stunned for a moment, burning money to worship the ancestors... Now, after a short while, I also came to my senses, shook my head and said, "No, no, there are other uses for this thing, The matter of going to the grave to worship the ancestors. Let’s talk about it in Jiudao Hutong, by the way, sir, I also have a little idea of ​​Jiudao Hutong!"

"Oh, there is a boundary of eyebrows, does anyone know Jiudao Hutong? Humph!" The old man smiled and glanced at me, "There are a lot of things in this bag. You are not burning paper to worship your ancestors, are you?"

The old man frowned, I knew the old man should have seen it, I didn't say much, I touched the money and was about to pay the bill, the old man waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it, I took advantage of you yesterday, today I will pay you back." Pay off the debt, take the things away and use it this time, maybe there will be a next time!"

I smiled, "How can it be? There are still many places to use in the future, sir, I will come here in the future!"

"Hmph, you won't be able to live in the future, so you can't help it!" The old man shook his head, "Things... you can take them away, and by the way, take my old man's words, everything, how long Brain, how many catties and taels you have, weigh it carefully, don't do those things that are beyond your capabilities!"

Looking at the belongings in my hand, I am afraid that the old man can tell about the summoning of the soul at a glance. What the old man said is obviously a reminder to me. Originally, I was not very sure about the summoning of the soul. But in private, I asked Little Snake, "It depends on my current ability. Can I do this work of summoning souls." He nodded and agreed, so I dared to answer that female ghost!

Speaking of it, I am a living person who actually leaned on a snake, but to be honest, I am really not as strong as this snake!

I nodded in response to the old man's words, but I still put down the money in my hand, "Master, I took the things and words away, so I will keep the money. Thank you for reminding me, old man!"

Putting down the money, I was carrying my things and was about to go out when the old man suddenly said, "Boy, wait a minute, let me ask a question!"

In a word, I stopped!
"Tell me, which relative are you in Jiudao Hutong?" the old man asked in a low voice.

I was taken aback when I heard that, and turned my head to look at him, "Jiudao Hutong Jiang Zhonghu, I don't know if your old...know him?"

"Jiang Zhonghu" the old man muttered something, his brows and feet trembled as he stared at him.

"Master, do you know this person?" I hurriedly asked.

The old man was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't know me, haven't I heard of this person?"

Looking at the old man's face, if there is nothing, I also feel a little bit wrong, but, listening to his bite to death, I know, it's a waste of asking, so I don't want to waste this spit, nod in response He said, "That's all right. Master, you can rest, I have something to do. I'll go first!"

Carrying something and holding an umbrella, without further ado, I left the incense and candle shop, and the old man looked at me without saying a word, and when I walked a few dozen meters away, I glanced at him, he was still looking at me, I curled my lips He smiled and murmured in his heart, this is really a strange old man!

I took my things and went straight to the hotel. I had already prepared the meat offerings, incense sticks and paper money. These miscellaneous things ended up being quite a lot. I packed them up, took a taxi and went straight to the cross road. At the mouth, I changed to a hotel nearby and waited until it got dark to start work. Evoking the soul!

I have read the soul-calling technique in Daguice no less than ten times, and I have already memorized it fluently. I have almost practiced the soul-attracting charms in it. I have drawn dozens of yellow charms in case of emergencies. In fact, to put it bluntly, ninety-nine percent of the reason why I was able to take on the job of summoning souls was because of the little snake, and it was precisely because of it that I had the courage to do so!
Waiting until midnight, I packed my things and ran to the intersection!
The night breeze was blowing, a crescent moon was showing half of his face, and the sky was filled with bright stars. Speaking of which, this was a good weather!
The crossroads are evil, and the flow of people is sparse. These days, accidents happen one after another, and no one dares to wander here at night.This also happens to be convenient for me!
On the side of the crossroads, the meat offerings were placed, and two white candles were lit. Three steps forward, within a radius of six meters, a handful of incense ash was scattered in a circle. Looking around, the whole road was silent. In one piece, the female ghost is behind me, silent, the little snake coiled around my wrist sticking out its tongue, everything seems very normal!

At three quarters past midnight, when the cinnabar opened and a bright red glow appeared, I whispered, "Birthday horoscope!"

The female ghost told her son's birthday along with her voice, and with a stroke of the cinnabar pen, I wrote it on the yellow paper.

Followed by burning incense three sticks, the smoke curled up, I bowed forward three times,
"Three sticks of incense stick to the heavens, to pay homage to guests from all directions!"

There is particularity in summoning souls on the crossroads. You are not afraid that you will not be able to recruit living souls, but you are afraid that you will attract ghosts. When you light the incense and throw away the paper money, the first person to worship is not the living souls, but the lonely ghosts passing by. To save face, a handful of ghost paper. It can be regarded as a way to buy money!

Outside the incense ash circle, an iron basin was placed in the middle of the road, and I lit the paper money while yelling, "A handful of yellow paper and a handful of money, don't get involved with ghosts from all directions, you can't stop spending money to buy roads, take your own money, passers-by do it on their own." Avoid, you and I do whatever is convenient, I will pick up my wandering soul guest, you go through your ghost gate!"

A little bit of paper money, the curling light of the fire accompanied by smoke, I didn’t feel a trace of wind at this time, but the paper money lit in the iron basin was spinning around, a lot of black ash, After turning around a few times, it flew far away!

It is a good thing that the paper money in the iron basin has moved. This shows that the wandering ghosts passing by will take the road money, and it will be convenient. This kind of money can be used not only on people, but also on this ghost. It's very useful, isn't there a saying that money can make ghosts go round, and that's what it says!
After waiting for four or five minutes, most of the paper ashes in the iron basin flew out. Seeing that there was no movement, I was relieved. This wandering ghost is also considered content, knowing that he will take some benefits and leave. People, if you encounter something greedy and insufficient, if you don't talk about it, you may cause big troubles!

When the three sticks of incense were extinguished, and the road money disappeared, I picked up the horoscope for my birthday, and muttered in a low voice, "Chen Xueyan, you are ready, we are about to start the summoning of souls!
