Chi Mu was very surprised when he saw Lame Li.
He was originally planning to look for Lame Li, but unexpectedly he came to the store by himself.
"Uncle Li, why are you here?"
"Oh, I've run out of candles at home. It's raining heavily right now, and my legs and feet are not in good condition. It's not realistic to go to town to buy candles now. I want to buy some from you to make do with it for now."
Chi Mu was slightly startled. Lame Li was in charge of funeral ceremonies, so it was a very strange thing that the candles had run out.
Chi Mu didn't think much about it. After all, he was opening a business and there were rules to restrict him. He had to treat every customer who came here seriously.
After thinking about it, he turned around and got a candle for Lame Li.
"Uncle, do you want red candles or white candles?"
"Of course it's white candles. I work in funerals and rarely use red candles. I basically use white candles."
Chi Mu understood, and started looking for white candles in the store. He packed up the last dozen or so white candles and gave them to Lame Li.
After handing the candle to Lame Li, Chi Mu couldn't help but find it a little funny.
I just bought paper money from Lame Li, and now it is equivalent to Lame Li returning the money. If I had known this would be the case, I would have simply exchanged white candles for paper money from him.
After getting the candle, Lame Li was not in a hurry to leave. He sat down in front of the convenience store, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
"Xiao Mu, do you mind if I rest here for a while?"
"Of course I don't mind. It's raining heavily right now. Our village is full of dirt roads. There are a lot of muddy pits right now. It won't be too late for you to leave after the rain has subsided."
Chi Mu smiled. He wished that Lame Li would stay in the store for a while longer so that he could ask him some questions.
At the same time, Chi Mu carefully noticed that the cigarettes that Lame Li smoked seemed to be rolled by himself, because his store was the only one in the village that sold cigarettes.
The type of cigarette that Lame Li smoked was not sold in his store at all.
After Lame Li lit the cigarette, he took a deep puff and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
But when Chi Mu smelled the smoke, he almost fainted.
The smell is so strong that it doesn't taste like ordinary cigarettes at all.
This reminded Chi Mu of what a roommate from the rural area said when he was in college.
It is said that in rural areas, people who work as Feng Shui masters shorten their lifespans because they reveal too many secrets of heaven.
Few have a happy ending.
Even if you live safely and soundly, it is almost impossible to live to the age of sixty.
In order to live longer, these Feng Shui masters will take the initiative to raise little ghosts. When the ghosts reach a certain size, they will use the oil refined by special secret techniques to burn the little ghosts to death.
Afterwards, the ashes of the little ghost are made into cigarettes. As long as people smoke this cigarette, it will have the effect of prolonging their life.
However, your body will become worse and worse. If you want to prolong your life, you have to keep raising little ghosts, over and over again.
But it is not easy to raise a little ghost. Each little ghost is raised with the corpse of a child under the age of seven, so we have to keep looking for the corpses of children under the age of seven.
So, when Chi Mu combined the unique cigarette of Cripple Li and the smell it emitted, he immediately thought that this cigarette might be made of corpse ashes?
After all, Lame Li is in charge of funeral affairs, so it is not surprising that he knows some of the Feng Shui master's secret techniques.
Just when Chi Mu was frightened by his own thoughts, Lame Li looked at the heavy rain outside the house and spoke.
“This rain is not normal... The rainy season has long passed, and it is raining so heavily now. Obviously something is causing trouble.
Recently, people have been dying in the village almost every day, and the deaths are not normal. Something unclean has entered the village!"
Lame Li was smoking a cigarette with his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was talking to himself, or as if he was talking to Chi Mu.
Chi Mu's mouth twitched, and he forced a smile: "Uncle, don't keep saying this kind of thing, it's scary..."
"Oh, by the way, let me ask you something."
Cripple Li glanced at Chi Mu and said, "You say."
"That's right. Didn't Widow Chen and Mazi Zhang die in our village? Their families should have entrusted their funeral affairs to you.
I heard from people in the village that they died in the same way. Could it be that they offended someone together and were killed out of revenge?"
Lame Li took a puff of his cigarette and didn't answer Chi Mu's question for a long time.
Just when Chi Mu thought that Lame Li didn't want to answer him, Lame Li slowly opened his mouth.
"Xiao Mu, there is something you don't know since you are still young, so Uncle Lame needs to tell you something.
Living people, don't ask about the dead, it's unlucky."
Chi Mu was a little confused. The lame Li Jing said some scary words to him.
——"Hiss, this Cripple Li has been scaring Chi Mu for no reason, and he never directly answers Chi Mu's questions. I think Cripple Li is one of the murderers."
——"How is it possible? Cripple Li is just a cripple. With his physical condition, how could he kill so many people in a row?"
——"What if his lameness is fake?"
——"Don't be silly, dear. Everyone in the village knows that Cripple Li is a cripple. It's impossible that he pretended to be a cripple for decades just to kill those people, right?"
The audience in the live broadcast rooms in many countries were divided into two camps, and half thought that Cripple Li was one of the murderers.
The other half thinks that Cripple Li just likes to be mysterious and always likes to exaggerate, and these signs are not enough to prove that Cripple Li is the murderer.
.......
"Haha, uncle, I just often hear people in the village say it. If it's unlucky, I'd better not ask about it."
