Chapter Eighteen Pressure
"I don't know if you believe it or not." Yu Ming has played the roles of a Taoist priest, a little monk, and a young Buddhist monk. In rural areas, when someone dies, they will hold a Buddhist ceremony, which is often a mix of Buddhism and Taoism. Yu Ming never took it seriously. However, the money was good, with at least 500 yuan for one night's work, and sometimes as much as 1,000 to 2,000 yuan. The deceased's family members came from all walks of life, some of whom didn't believe in it at all, but they never questioned it.
Uncle and Yu Ming said, what's scary about ghosts? What's really scary is people. Yu Ming asked Uncle: Is there a ghost in this world? Uncle didn't answer for a long time: I don't know if there are ghosts, but I know there is cause and effect.
As Li Fu said, if you believe in Buddha, you must also believe in immortals, and you must also believe in hell and ghosts. Faith is a complete system, you can't just believe in the good things while refusing to believe in the bad ones.
Yu Ming caught a "ghost" at the age of 14, of course, that's all there is to it. In modern terms, he drew a ghost on a piece of paper with chemicals and then sprayed wine on it, causing a chemical reaction. The ghost appeared on the paper. Then burning the paper was equivalent to catching the ghost. Not only did Yu Ming catch ghosts, but he also moonlighted as a fox spirit catcher. In fact, what is a fox spirit? It's just that kid who watched too many adult videos and had premature ejaculation. The female voice Grandpa heard was Sora Aoi, an old friend of young people in the new era.
Apart from catching these, Yu Ming also followed the class to watch Feng Shui and set graves. Don't mention it, there's a big market for it. Sometimes you have to rush to more than a dozen scenes in one day. It's even busier than the Japanese soldiers' dragon suit in Hengdian World Studios. After mixing for so many years, ghosts haven't been seen at all, and the caught ghosts are just a handful.
Li Fugui came in and asked: "Yu Ming, what's your opinion?" He was also a bit frightened, but Yu Ming seemed the calmest of all.
Yu Ming sank into thought for a moment: "This job can't be taken. Assuming the other party is a ghost, we are not their match. It's also possible that it's a human pretending to be a ghost. Judging from the video, we're not their match either."
"So you think it's a ghost or not?"
"I don't know." Yu Ming replied honestly: "As for the video and the people who live in the ancestral house, ghosts are still a good explanation."
Du Qingqing held a cup of hot water to the tea room: "Or, just forget about this order." Although she was not willing to be ridiculed by Liu Mao, the fact was right in front of her. Sending Li Fu alone, she couldn't bear it. Seeing Nian Qiu refusing to go even if beaten to death, what attitude was Yu Ming showing?
"I want to go and take a look."
"Alone?" Du Qingqing asked.
Li Fu expected Yu Ming to speak up, but Yu Ming didn't say a word and focused on drinking Coke. Li Fu could only say: "Alone."
It's definitely not going to work today, so early the next morning, Du Qingqing took Li Fu to the ancestral house. The ancestral house is about 300 meters away from the highway. There is only one house nearby, and when you get out of the car, you can see that behind the house are all tombs. Du Qingqing got out of the car and said: "Li Fu, have you thought it through?"
He Li carried a backpack and said, "This might be a rare opportunity. Besides, even if there are ghosts, they're just scaring people, not harming them. Don't worry, I can handle it."
"Damn Yu Ming, I originally thought he would accompany you with righteousness."
"Don't blame Ming, everyone is afraid."
Du Qingqing took out her mobile phone and said: "The signal is poor here. After you pass by, find a place with a good signal and call me."
"En." Li Fu turned around and looked at the ancestral house in the distance. He took a deep breath, trampled on the long grassy road, and walked towards the ancestral house.
……
In the company, Yu Ming spread a bundle of yellow paper on the table. Ni Qiu put down the magazine and asked: "What's going on?"
"If we were to stand in front of Comrade Li Fuchun's tomb, our boss would probably take the high moral ground and send me, this unscrupulous neighbor, to experience it for myself. So I'd better do some preparatory work first."
"What preparations."
Yu Ming dipped his brush in cinnabar and with a flourish, drew a character on the yellow paper. Nian Qiu's jaw dropped: "Damn, you've still got it."
"One skill accompanies the body, and one will not starve to death."
"Does it work?"
Yu Ming thought to himself: "Anyway, after I draw the talisman, I haven't seen any ghosts."
"What about before?"
"Haven't seen it before." Yu Ming drew ten sheets in one breath, waiting for them to dry. He sat back in his own seat and inserted the ghost U-disk into the computer: "Know yourself, know your enemy, be prepared for no trouble."
Ni Qiu smiled wryly: "You're sure the boss will send you?"
"Romantic feelings... You didn't notice, our boss has a certain interest in Li Fuxi colleague. The lover was sent to the tiger's mouth. How can small fish not go?"
"This is not the way to go. The boss has no romantic feelings for Li Fu, at most it's admiration. Especially after that attempted murder case. Women have a characteristic, they all hope to have someone to rely on after leaving their parents. Our boss's personality isn't so weak. But it can't be denied, Li Fu is indeed the current ace of our company." Nian Qiu said: "I think you're being a bit sour."
Yu Ming and Ni Qiu, both from the streets, had a decent relationship after a few days. Yu Ming sighed: "To be honest with you, on the first day of the interview, I was number 140, he was number 141. I'm from a third-tier university, he's from the best university in the world, and he's also a double PhD. He's taller than me, more handsome than me. The suicidal case highlighted his ability, and the haunted house at least highlighted his courage. Working with such a perfect man is very stressful."
"Hi, dear." A female voice floated over.
Yu Ming looked up to see a beautiful woman in her mid-twenties. Long hair, light blue semi-revealing summer dress, looking particularly pleasing to the eye. Nian Qiu stood up and said: "Wife, how did you come?"
"On the way to work, people miss you." The woman hugged Niu Qiu and kissed him.
"Let me introduce you," said Nai Qiu. "My colleague Ming, and my girlfriend, just call her Ke'er."
"Hello." They shook hands. Ni Qiu was disappointed in the business world, but successful in love. Yu Ming glanced at Keke's bag and was shocked. If he wasn't mistaken, it was a genuine LV, one of the 500 limited edition ones worldwide. It couldn't be, it couldn't be. The price of this bag was at least 40,000 yuan. It must be a counterfeit.
The girl whispered in Niu Qiu's ear: "Tonight, my parents are going to grandma's house, and I'll come find you."
"Alright." Ni Qiu glanced at Yu Ming who was lowering his head to look at the computer and said: "I'll wait for you."
Ní Qiū sent Kě ér out and turned around to sit down, saying: "Don't you ask anything?"
Yu Ming asked bewilderedly: "What's being asked?"
"Why does a poor devil like me, an ex-convict, have such a beautiful, high-quality and wealthy girlfriend?"
"You're handsome, okay? Big brother, there are two handsome guys in one office, I'm already under a lot of pressure."
The phone rang, and Niu Qiu answered Li Fu's call: "Hello. The dog is lost? Losing a dog is a common thing. When you lose something, it's like that. When you're looking for it, you can't find it even if you turn the whole earth upside down. But when you're not looking for it, it suddenly appears in front of you. You go look first, and if you really can't find it, then come find us."
"Wow, your work attitude isn't very good. And after the suicide case, we all became regular employees. There's a 10% commission too."
"That's right." Nian Qiu replied according to the incoming call: "Hello, Investigator No. 112 is willing to serve you." A 10% commission was still worth going out to bask in the damned sun.
