Bai Luofeng originally planned to find a place where Cui Renzhu was buried in a beautiful place, but then he thought about it, and the cold scene of thousands of mountains and birds flying away was not worthy of Cui Renzhu's elegance during his lifetime. So he wrapped a tight cotton towel around his face, rented a room in a nearby small county with his back, put the body on the bed and covered it with a quilt, and pretended to be asleep.

The small county in winter was unexpectedly deserted, Bai Luofeng walked for a long time to find a small longevity shop, the owner of the shop was as lifeless as the business at hand, the two shriveled veterans had nothing to do on the coffin lid, and outsiders were afraid that the painted paint would be scratched by them.

The old man's bare head was covered with a few silver threads very casually, and his low-looking eyelids did not leave from the thin account book because of the guests, after all, he was doing a funeral business, and he really couldn't smile like Xiao Er in the restaurant.

Bai Luofeng couldn't wait for a special customization, and as soon as he entered the store, he went straight to the old man and said, "Shopkeeper, is it made of more expensive wood?"

The old shopkeeper turned the page intently, counted a few lines of numbers without squinting, and scratched his armpits comfortably with his withered fingers, and then comfortably put them on the tip of his nose and took a deep breath, as if his hands were stained with women's makeup powder.

Seeing that he ignored him, the guest thought that the old ear could not hear the request clearly, so he deliberately moved forward and leaned over and quietly raised his voice: "Old man, is there a coffin with a better texture here?"

I didn't want the old man to look peaceful on the surface, but when he was disturbed by Bai Luofeng's tone, he suddenly lost his temper, grabbed the booklet and threw it on the coffin lid, spitting Xingzi scolded: "You are blind, right, there are a few mouthfuls in the store, do you like to buy it or not! At this time, where can I plane the wood for you to make a coffin, and everyone is dead, and pay attention to a fart! Is it possible that all the Nanmu is used in a place with big bird droppings? Do you kid look like a dead person, do you have the ability to go to the capital, let them make you a mouth inlaid with gold and lie down!"

Bai Luofeng didn't expect that the shopkeeper had no businessman's temper at all, and he was so arrogant, but unfortunately he couldn't find this kind of business elsewhere, so he had to swallow his anger and said: "The boy has a benefactor who unfortunately passed away, just to buy a better wooden fang to make his bones suffer less crimes, and I hope that the shopkeeper will understand." ”

The old man has obviously done too much yin and yang business, and the dead man has to look at his face, lest he will not be happy when he sleeps with a pimple. The living have to let him kick his nose in the face, after all, the world is big, and the people who go have to be buried in the ground first. The county seat is full of scorpion - the only one.

"If you don't say no, you won't, it's all hewn from pine, and the living still suffer a lot, and the dead waste silver and two things?" The bad wine in the gourd brought up from the soles of his feet had not yet been swallowed, and the shopkeeper stuck it in his throat, snorted and swallowed into his belly, and said indifferently and vaguely.

Bai Luofeng saw that other people's oil and salt did not enter, so he simply did his own to identify the good and the bad. However, the old man seemed to deliberately not want to make a deal, so he moved towards the young man under the stool with a fierce attitude, and then snapped back Bai Luofeng's hand that knocked on the coffin and scolded: "Can there be good or bad things made by the same person?

The customer was very helpless, so he could only rely on his eyes to pick a better product and point: "Then that." ”

The old man swallowed a sip of gourd wine, glanced at the dead man's room designated by Bai Luofeng, and snorted coldly: "That one is not for sale." ”

Bai Luofeng was puzzled: "Why?"

"That's what the old man left for himself, why should he sell it to you. The old man pursed his lower lip and stretched out to the mouth of the gourd, and poured his addiction.

Bai Luofeng felt a little that the old man had the heart to say, so he pointed to the other and asked, "In this case, I'll buy the one next to me." ”

"The old birthday star of the Liu family in the east of the city booked it. This time, the old man didn't even move his eyes, and just opened his mouth to come.

Bai Luofeng refused to give up, and pointed elsewhere.

"That is the mother-in-law of the Wang family in the south of the city who just died of illness. ”

"That is the son of the Xu family next door who fell into the river and died"

"That is the daughter of the Li family who was bitten to death by a wild wolf on the mountain in the east of the city"

"That's ......"

After a circle, each coffin has its own owner, Bai Luofeng can be regarded as smelling the smell of being played, and can't help but be angry: "You have sold out and what kind of business are you still open! I'm afraid it's not that Cheng Xin is unwilling to sell it to me." ”

The old man staggered back on the bench, leaned comfortably against the wall, and said disdainfully: "Is it your business to open the door?"

Bai Luofeng didn't understand why this person was against him for no reason, seeing that the other party looked like he had eaten the scales, and thought about Cui Renzhu, who was not long under the cold bones in the inn, he simply rushed to the second big box that Fang had just ordered and wanted to escape, and apologized again and again: "That old birthday star can't return to heaven for a while, you let him stay for a few more days, and I will kowtow to him to thank you." ”

However, ordinary longevity still needs three or four people to lift, Bai Luofeng's martial arts are swordsmanship rather than strength, and the fierce plan to take away the heavy object is not successful, but is blocked in place and does not move.

At this time, the half-drunk and half-awake old man was also shocked, and in a hurry, the wine gourd in his hand was thrown directly towards Bai Luofeng's skull, and the legs of the unhealthy rope burst out with amazing strength, and the flat pole that picked up the corner of the wall and hit the bent back.

The old man kicked while beating, and his mouth was full of yellow teeth: "You stinky boy, dare to rob things from the dead, you are not afraid of the little ghost knocking on the door in the middle of the night to retaliate against me, I am afraid of ruining my reputation! ”

Bai Luofeng was stunned by the random beating that fell from the sky, and the gourd face on his forehead was smashed with blood marks. However, no matter how heavy the old man's hands were, he only raised his hands to protect a few vital points and did not resist at all.

The seller was old and frail, and after a few times, he was tired and panting, and he rested for a while, and a pair of angry eyes were eager to pat the young man who was holding his head to the ground.

Suddenly, the old man who had suppressed his breath felt his bare feet cold, and when he looked down, it was the hand of the boy who didn't know what to do. He thought that the thief's heart would not die, so he picked up the flat pole and put it on the top of the person's head to make sure that he had just slowed down the strength to do it again.

As soon as the stick went down, the sturdy wooden pole snapped, and the part that was not in the palm of his hand flew out with strength.

Bai Luofeng didn't respond to the shout, holding his painful and bruised and swollen face, he begged in a low voice: "I beg you to sell me a pair, no matter how much money I will give you." ”

The old man couldn't bear it after all, he threw away half of the flat shoulder in his hand and stared at the scabbard tied behind Bai Luofeng's back and said: "It's not impossible to sell longevity materials to you, old man, I have encountered all kinds of funerals in my life, and the smell of money and copper is also considered to be down, so it is better to change something I like to have a happy value." ”

Bai Luofeng saw that he let go, and said with joy: "Is this true?

A hint of cunning flashed in the old man's eyes, and the thief smiled sheepishly: "Oh, I've lived for so long, I'm tired of scratching chisels and planers, and I'm interested in the sword behind you right now, do you want to change it or not?"

The swordsman froze in place for a moment, unable to speak: "Shopkeeper, do you want anything else besides this sword?"

"No negotiable!" the old man assumed an unshakable posture.

Bai Luofeng was in a dilemma, and after a long time, he said: "Why don't I make a note with you, and I will go to a blacksmith shop to make a good sword for you in the next two days?"

"I don't know the craftsmanship of the blacksmith in the county? It's okay to beat farm tools, let him make a good sword, and the sow can go up the tree. The old shopkeeper sneered and threatened: "If it was really so easy to get a sword, I would be rare now?" Besides, how credible is the handwriting of your oil-headed boy?

Young people are in a dilemma, regardless of the future of Shanggangzhi, it is indispensable to settle accounts, the most basic thing is that it is a relic left by the old master, how can it be said to be given?

The old man is old, but his brain is very bright, seeing that the other party hesitates and secretly screams in his heart that there is a play, so he adds fire and deliberately ridicules: "You still think how important this coffin is to you, and you don't even want to take out a piece of broken iron, what sincerity do you talk about?" ”

It was still early outside, and Bai Luofeng knew that the profiteers were obviously sitting on the ground and raising prices, but they couldn't lose their temper. Just as he was about to continue to persuade him, the smell of wine in the air rushed into his nose like the fragrance of a hundred flowers in spring, and he immediately felt energetic, even if it was a hot new injury, it was much weaker.

Bai Luofeng immediately noticed something was wrong, stared at the wine gourd that he didn't want to leak out and said in surprise: How can there be a hundred flowers brewed in the realm of the poor countryside? Therefore, he hurriedly asked the old man: "Old man, where did your wine come from?"

The old man who turned around and lifted the curtain in the back room froze his movements for a moment, and after a while, he went back to pick up the wine gourd on the ground and scolded: "Today, the broom star came to the door, and the good wine that I finally picked up spilled so much!"

The visitor wanted to ask more, but unfortunately the old man drove him out with a broom like a duck, and then turned him away. Bai Luofeng was unyielding, knocking on the door desperately and calling loudly: "Then can you tell me where you picked it up?"

It's just that the muffled voice in the house is impatient and complaining: "Knock on it, it's noisy and dead! Who remembers what happened a few days ago, why do you ask so much? If you want to drink wine and buy it with money, how can there be so many good things in the world? Ouch, don't you call it? Isn't it a coffin, you get out of here! Ming'er called someone to come and carry it!"

At this point, Bai Luofeng was embarrassed to disturb more, so he had to take advantage of the cold wind close to his face and the wounds he had just added, and walked deep and shallow towards the inn on the thick snowy road.

The back of the street has not disappeared for long, and one of the windows of the longevity shop has been erected, and behind the window is an old man with a strange temperament, who pointed at the wine gourd with his index finger and said slightly drunk: "It's all your fault, I almost showed the stuffing." ”

With a pot of aroma in his mouth, the old man wiped his clean and wet beard and put it on the window and sighed: "Hey, if I hadn't secretly broken the flat burden before, he wouldn't be a fool now." Without a trace, I originally planned to let him personally take Cui Renzhu to join Liu Jizong, but now I have to, the sword was not cheated away, and the coffin was sent out, you stupid apprentice is afraid that he will climb and go to Gangzhiguan!"
