Chapter 260: Whitebeard Grandpa
The white-bearded old man smiled, turned around and walked to the rocking chair next to the table to lie down, took a hard puff of dry smoke, and leisurely told Yiyun about his youth.
I was very curious about those gods and ghosts since I was a child, and there was a crematorium near my house at the time, so I worked in the crematorium all the time, and later I heard that there was a profession called "dead man's makeup artist", which was a profession that had close contact with corpses.
So I apprenticed to learn this technique, after learning this technique, I have been engaged in the crematorium in the dead man's makeup artist this profession, the crematorium people respect me as uncle, I have been engaged in this profession for more than 40 years, and then when I was older, the crematorium leader was afraid that I would not be able to do well, so I quit me, after being dismissed from this profession, I went back to my hometown in this low house to sell some dead people's supplies in waste of my old age.
The white-bearded old man seemed to be telling the glorious history of his revolution, and there was a look of unforgiving emotion on his face, which almost made Yiyun's jaw drop.
Young man, now you know who I am, can you see the difference between me, young man, you have a good insight!
''Rub ...... Rub it, what's the situation?''' Whitebeard Grandpa completely misunderstood what I meant...... Yiyun wiped the sweat from his head, he was simply drunk.
There is also a rule in the industry of dead makeup artists, if the dead man opens his eyes when he is applying makeup, it means that you can no longer put makeup on him and you must keep your head down and quit, otherwise it will lead to death, the white-bearded old man suddenly had a stern expression when he said this.
Yiyun watched the white-bearded old man talk about the story of his youth and hurriedly stopped, Yiyun laughed dryly, "That, it's not early, I'll go back first, and I'll listen to you another day when I have time." ‘’
''Well, it's rare to meet a young man as wise and discerning as you, and I'm really lucky for the rest of my life!''
''Ahaha''. After listening to the words of the white-bearded old man, Yiyun almost responded with a fist-hugging posture, this white-bearded old man is really a child's heart.
"By the way, young man, don't pass by the old mansion in front of you when you leave", the white-bearded old man glanced outside the door and said to Yiyun with a sincere face.
After listening to the white-bearded old man's words, Yiyun hurriedly retracted one of the legs that had just stepped out of the threshold, "Why?"
The road in the old residential area seems to be haunted recently, and some people say that it is the ghosts who are doing the trick, but it is better to believe it or not, or to take a detour. The white-bearded old man said with a gloomy face, and the dim light shook a few times as if to render the atmosphere.
Yoshiyun straightened up and asked, "Is there anything going on?"
There was a famous drunkard in the old mansion. Not long ago, he was arrested for stealing, and he was recently released, but his nature is still difficult to change, and one night the neighbor of the drunkard heard him screaming in the house and shouted for help, and the neighbors did not know what was going on and had to break down the door.
At that time, the scene in the drunkard's house frightened the neighbors who broke into the door, and a jade pendant-like thing sucked the drunkard's neck, and the drunkard's face turned pale and the green tendons on his neck exploded. The neighbors saw with their own eyes that the drunkard's blood slowly seeped into the jade pendant, and because the drunkard neighbors broke into the door, the monster that looked like the jade pendant suddenly disappeared.
After dawn, the matter was rumored, and the people who lived in the old house were scared. But nothing happened again for the next two days, and just when people thought they were all right, they heard the drunkard's screams again that night, and every three or two days thereafter they heard the drunkard's screams.
This drunkard is not doing his job, he is good at drinking, gambling badly, and I don't know where he got something unclean. ''Alas, what a retribution!'' for unnecessary trouble, young man. You'd better take a detour. ‘’
A monster that looks like a jade pendant, what kind of monster could it be? Yiyun thanked the white-bearded old man and walked towards the road in the old mansion under the moonlight.
Because the two buildings in the old residential area are of different heights, the path has been missing all year round, and the bright moonlight ends at the intersection, and the long path is dark except for a dilapidated and dim street lamp at the end of the path.
Yiyun sniffed, and as soon as he raised his foot and stepped into the path, he felt wrapped in endless darkness, a feeling of ten thousand years of ice hit the bone marrow, Yiyun couldn't help but shiver, his limbs seemed to be uncontrolled as if they had been anesthetic, and he didn't feel anything.
A burst of floral fragrance hit, Yiyun fell straight to the ground and lost consciousness, when Yiyun woke up, it was still dark, and the dim light made Yiyun feel very familiar.
The paper money and ingots placed around him, as well as the white-bearded old man who looked at him with a smile, "Wake up?"
''Why am I here?'' Yiyun rubbed his still slightly aching head and looked at the white-bearded old man with a puzzled expression.
''I know that you young people don't believe in these ghosts, snakes, and gods, and will definitely disagree and take the road of the old house, and not long after you left, I went to the path of the old house and looked at it, and found you lying there, so I brought you back. ‘’
The white-bearded old man poured a glass of water for Yiyun, and his tone was slightly reproachful.
Yiyun happened to be thirsty, and honestly drank all the water in the cup, which was strange to say, Yiyun didn't know what was going on, as soon as he stepped into the path, he smelled an inexplicable fragrance, and then he didn't know anything. ‘’
''By the way, old man, how long have I been in a coma?'' Yiyun looked at the sky outside and thought that he shouldn't have fainted for long.
But the old man's answer made Yiyun completely dumbfounded, "Young man, you have been in a coma for a day and a night. ‘’
I was in a coma for a day and a night, no wonder I felt that my mouth was dry after waking up, as the so-called dark is easy to do, Yiyun pretended to inadvertently inquired about the drunkard's residence, and said goodbye to the white-bearded old man for fear of the family's worries.
There were no lights in the corridors of the old residential area, and there was only the sound of Yiyun's footsteps ascending the steps in the dark and quiet corridors, and Yiyun came to the door of the west family on the fourth floor of the third unit by feeling.
''This is it, this is the home of the drunkard that the old man with the white beard said'' Yiyun knocked on the door and put his ear to the door, there was no sound in the house, ''Is there no one?' also, who is still staying at home after this happened?'' Yiyun Bianbian's mouth is really worried about his unresponsive IQ.
Yiyun absentmindedly walked out of the corridor, but was surprised to find a woman in a yellow glass skirt who did not look like what modern people were wearing at all walking towards the path in the old residential area.
Driven by curiosity, Yiyun quietly followed the woman towards the path of the old house. (To be continued......)
