Warm Funeral Home

02. Nian Chong

At the dinner table, there were two people and one cat, except for Yun Chan, the other two were eating with relish.

The black cat was purring and eating like a beggar.

Yuan Zhaoqing also seemed to have not eaten a full meal in the past few days, and devoured it hungrily.

Yun Chan asked, "Another bowl?"

Yuan Zhaoqing wiped his mouth: "Yes. Thanks."

After a full meal, the black cat lay contentedly on the windowsill, drying its belly.Leave the two of them talking inside the house.

Yuan Zhaoqing: "Those old people either died naturally."

Yun Chan motioned him to continue talking.

Yuan Zhaoqing: "In the ears and noses of those old people, there is a kind of insect called Nian Chong. It feeds on the spirit of people."

Yun Chan: "Nian Chong?"

Yuan Zhaoqing continued to explain: "That kind of worm is all black, without tentacles, but has more than sixty pairs of legs. It is good at drilling holes in people's minds and sucking their spirits."

"Those bugs only pick on the elderly. The nerves of the elderly are not as sensitive as those of the young. Some elderly people are most likely to be taken advantage of by the insects when they are drowsy. Especially when the elderly are sad and depressed. When it is time, the nimbus will invade the human brain more easily."

Yun Chan was thoughtful, "Is someone raising these bugs?"

Yuan Zhaoqing glanced at him approvingly, and said, "Yes. Recently, the number of dead elderly people in S City has been increasing, because someone released that kind of bug."

Yun Chan recalled the corpses that were sent one after another, and couldn't help asking: "How to solve it?"

Yuan Zhaoqing waved his hand, "It's very simple."

Yun Chan: "How?"

Yuan Zhaoqing replied: "Just find the nest of the Nian Chong."

In the early morning of the next day, Yun Chan went to work in the funeral home early.

Old Kang said coolly at the side: "Brother Yun, some old people are going to be transported in today. I'm afraid you won't be able to finish painting by noon!"

It was clearly in the morning, and the sun only showed half of his head, so Lao Kang fanned his cattail fan again.

Yun Chan replied unexpectedly: "You have fire in your heart, you should get rid of it."

"Yo." Lao Kang put down his fan, "Brother Yun, are you in a good mood today?"

Yun Chan ignored it and went into his studio.

The person lying on the shelf at half a person's height, no accident, was another old man.

Yun Chan took out a glass vial containing light gray liquid medicine, poured a drop on a white cotton swab, and then inserted the cotton swab into the old man's ear.

After half a minute, Yun Chan took out the cotton swab.

There were actually a few small black bugs on it, about the size of ants.

It seems that what Yuan Zhaoqing said is true.

Yun Chan put the fainted black Nian Chong in another glass vial.Put it in your jacket pocket.

Just as he was about to put on makeup for the old man, Lao Zhang yelled outside the door.

"Xiaoyun, your phone number! Hua Qingchuan!"

Before leaving, I added another sentence: "It's urgent!"

Yunchan had no choice but to put down the work at hand, took off the disinfection suit, and went to the lounge to answer the phone.

"what's up?"

Hua Qingchuan's voice was not as lively as usual, and he didn't make fun of Yun Chan. There was a bit of solemnity in his voice.

"Yunchan, this time I'm going on a secret mission again, this time the risk is even greater than last time. If I can't come back, you can find another boyfriend, not someone in my profession!"

Yun Chan: "You, mom is still waiting for you at home."

"I know, so I didn't call to tell him. The mission this time is really a bit evil. It's possible that I really won't be able to come back."

Yun Chan was about to speak, but Hua Qingchuan rushed to say: "If I can't come back, don't be sad. People always have life and death, don't they? I asked a Taoist priest on the street to make a deal the other day. Specify to be able to..."

Before he finished speaking, the phone was disconnected.

It seems that Hua Qingchuan's mission this time is really different from the past.

Feeling more heavy in his heart, Yun Chan continued to make up for the old man.

After get off work, Yun Chan handed over the bottled Nian Chong to Yuan Zhaoqing.

At this time, Xiao Chong was fully awake, and moved his body from time to time, but he didn't make a big movement to break free.

Yuan Zhaoqing shook the glass bottle and said, "They are preserving their strength."

Yun Chan had been in a low mood since the phone call with Hua Qingchuan was over, and Yuan Zhaoqing was the only one talking at this moment.

Seeing that Yun Chan didn't respond, he shifted his gaze from Nian Chong to Yun Chan.

"you're uncomfortable?"

Yuan Zhaoqing can be regarded as a self-reliant and self-reliant child. He has never caused anyone to worry about him since he was a child, and he bears all major illnesses and pains by himself.Only when he really couldn't bear it would he ask his elder brother for help.

Yuan Zhaoqing's aptitude is not that good, from childhood to adulthood, 24 out of [-] hours a day are spent studying Taoism.The piano he never left with him was given to him by his elder brother when he first caught the kid.

However, in the deep mountains, there are no friends of the same age.

When Yun Chan showed such emotions, he was a little at a loss.

He wanted to comfort him, but didn't know where to start.

He went straight to the window, picked up the lazy black cat, imitated how Yun Chan treated him, and stuffed the black cat into Yun Chan's arms.

"Hold it, you'll feel better."

The black cat was tanning its belly and dreaming, when it was picked up unexpectedly, but unable to break free, it meowed.

When he looked up, Yun Chan was already holding it.

"Meow~" Pretty girl, what's wrong with you.

Yun Chan smiled lightly: "Eat small fish?"

The black cat tilted its head and rubbed against Yunchan with its belly: "Meow~" I'm full, eat it!

---

Yuan Zhaoqing opened the guqin, and poked his fingers into the lower room of the guqin. There was a "click", as if something had been opened.

Yuan Zhaoqing took out a large transparent box from the hidden compartment below, about the size of a palm.

Press the switch, and the glass cover of the box pops up.

After filling up the water that was picked up at ten o'clock in the evening, Yuan Zhaoqing signaled Yunchan to put the bug into the glass box.

Yun Chan held the upside-down glass bottle upright, and Nian Chong walked down an invisible path, but he didn't expect to enter a place full of water.

Nian Chong, who was lazy during the day, struggled rapidly at this time.

At this time, a pattern gradually appeared at the bottom of the water.

"It's a gossip map." Yuan Zhaoqing explained.

The black cat also jumped onto the table, its eyes widened, watching this miraculous scene.

There was no light at this time, only the moonlight as soft as silk leaking in from the window.

Yuan Zhaoqing closed the lid, ready to go out with Yun Chan to find Nian Chong's ovary.

The black cat also flicked its tail and followed, but Yun Chan didn't stop it.

Yuan Zhaoqing said: "This cat is different from other cats in the yard. It has spirituality. It can help if necessary."

Yun Chan glanced at the black cat, who proudly called out: "Meow~"

A little bit of green fluorescent light began to emerge from the transparent box.

Yuan Zhaoqing took a look and said, "Northeast."

One person and one cat followed behind.

The green light is getting brighter and brighter.

The urban planning of City S is unreasonable, and there are still some old residential buildings lying around, and the roads in between are winding and winding.

Yun Chan and Yuan Zhaoqing took many detours.

After about an hour, the fluorescence filled the box.

"It seems to be here." Yuan Zhaoqing said.

This place is already a suburb, and there are few houses around, and there are only a few residential houses that combine Chinese and Western styles.

But none of the rooms were lit.Could it be that everyone here is asleep?

Or, are there no people in these houses at all?

In recent years, young people in rural areas have gone out to work. After earning money, they went back to their hometown to build houses. After repairing, they went out again, leaving empty houses without even an old man guarding the house.As a result, weeds grew overgrown in front of the gate.

He took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight, and inspected house by house.

Weeds are growing around these houses, and the glass on the walls of some houses has been broken.

Only then did Yun Chan confirm: "No one lives there."

"Bagua mirror?" There was some surprise in Yuan Zhaoqing's voice.

Yun Chan also looked up, and there was a mirror hanging on the front door of every house.

This is the custom of the locals, and there is nothing strange about it.

Yuan Zhaoqing said again: "No, this is not an ordinary mirror on the market, but an ordinary cultivator has it."

Yuan Zhaoqing explained to Yun Chan: "The edge of this kind of mirror is engraved with lotus and boy. From the perspective of knife work, it doesn't look like mechanical carving. You see, the red spot in the middle of the gossip mirror is a chicken. Blood."

The gossip mirror was three meters high, and neither of them could reach it.

Yuanzhao and Yunchan worked together to move a few stones and put them in front of the door.

Yun Chan was about to step up to take down the gossip mirror, but was stopped by Yuan Zhaoqing.

"Let the cat come."

"Meow?" What are you calling me for?

Heitan has been watching the two of them, but he is too small to help them carry things.

Yuan Zhaoqing pointed to the gossip mirror above his head, and said to the black cat, "Use your claws to get it off."

The black cat tilted its head: "Meow?" I really don't understand what you said!

Looking helpless, Yuan Zhaoqing took out a yellow talisman the size of a child's palm from behind, bit his finger, and dripped a drop of blood on it, which quickly stained the entire talisman paper red.

Yuan Zhaoqing folded the paper talisman in his hands, knotted his hands, and said something in his mouth. After 1 minute, Yuan Zhaoqing pasted the paper talisman on the black cat's head.

"Now, you jump on the rock and get the mirror off it."

"Meow?" How can I understand what people are saying?

The cat was stunned for a moment, not knowing what happened.

Yuan Zhaoqing has never seen such a stupid cat after opening the wisdom, although it is temporary.

"Yunchan, make your cat obedient."

Hearing this, Yun Chan picked up the black cat, comforted the cat with a face full of shock, and stroked its soft fur with his hands.

"Jump off the rock and take the mirror down."

The black cat finally understood this time.

The black cat stepped on the stone, jumped on the net with all its strength, and patted the mirror hung on it with its cat's paw.

The black cat lived up to expectations and succeeded once.

Yuan Zhaoqing quickly picked up the gossip mirror, turned over the mirror, and saw that it was covered with black nian worms.

Those nimbus kept rushing towards a larger nian in the center, carrying viscous liquid.These nian worms seemed to be attending a grand dinner party, they squirmed and twisted crazily.

What is shocking is that the huge nian worm in the center is constantly devouring the smaller nian worms that are rushing towards it, as if tasting the tribute sacrificed by the same kind.

It was also the first time Yuan Zhaoqing saw this kind of female worm. He was so excited that he took out a box from his body, turned around and ruthlessly tore off the yellow talisman that allowed the black cat to temporarily possess spiritual intelligence, and carefully put it Wrap the female worm and put it in the box.

"Crack!" The box automatically closed.

The small nian worm that left the mother worm went completely crazy.

Yuan Zhaoqing decisively threw the box far away, then took out the fire pocket and threw it over.

The fire ignited quickly, and the bugs were still rolling in the sea of ​​flames.

In the dark night, the fire was blazing, illuminating the surrounding Yun Chan, and for the first time a strange feeling arose in his heart.He seems to have really accepted the world that didn't belong to him.

Yun Chan asked: "In other houses, there is also a gossip mirror."

Yuan Zhaoqing panted heavily, and replied: "One space can only accommodate one female Nian Chong. There are Nian Chong under the other Bagua mirrors, and it is not a problem. The female Nian Chong has been sealed by me."

Yun Chan: "Mother worm, won't you kill it?"

Yuan Zhaoqing shook the injured box, and said with a smile: "This thing, if you use it well, it will be useful."

After thinking about it, he said again: "It's a bit novel that this thing is kept behind the gossip mirror. I'm afraid it was made by that demon again."

Yuan Zhaoqing threw the box to Yun Chan, "Put this thing at your place first."

Yun Chan took the box and looked at it silently.

And the black cat who was cheated was still stupid, "Meow?"

what are you guys saying?Why can't I understand again!
