C42 (1/2)
If the old lady's small body could not be carried by the two muscular men, then there was only two possibilities.
First, the two people at the funeral home were putting on airs because they couldn't put in any effort.
However, the Director Wang was a businessman, who was very smart and stuffed with red packets very early on.
Secondly, the old lady was really too heavy. The two of them couldn't lift her, and in the end, the old lady's bedsheet was torn apart.
However, the old lady's corpse looked like it weighed at least eighty catties. How could both of them not be able to carry it?
Then, there was only one possibility, and that was that the old lady did not want to leave. She did not want to be buried or even cremated.
Although I was also extremely frightened, after experiencing so many things, my mental fortitude had become a little stronger. Furthermore, it was in broad daylight, so I didn't lose my head and chose to stand by the side and watch coldly.
This kind of situation wasn't mentioned in the book that grandfather gave me. Thus, at this moment, I was at a loss of what to do. There was nothing I could do.
Seeing that the old lady's body could not be carried, Director Wang became anxious. Gritting his teeth, he pulled out his sleeves and personally carried her out.
Although he was secretly surprised that the Director Wang would not be afraid of the taboo of ”flesh and blood not lifting coffins”, thinking about it, it seemed like this was the only method left to him. Even ”Mister Taoist”, upon seeing this situation, quickly cleaned up the people he brought along to eat, and the opportunity disappeared very early on.
Unfortunately, seeing that the three of them were using all their strength and the thick door board underneath the old lady was not moving at all, Director Wang was also extremely anxious. In the end, he turned his face and looked at me with a pleading face: ”Master Ma, what should we do?”
I sighed and thought, ”What should I do? ”Serve it well!”
But, no matter what, taking someone's money and getting them into trouble, since I'm involved in this matter, it's still good to think of a solution.
Thus, I said to the Director Wang, ”How about you plead with the old lady, or else this won't be a solution.”
Hearing this, the Director Wang's face alternated between green and white, as he knelt down beside the old lady's corpse, and said in a low voice, ”Mother, if you have any unfulfilled wishes, please leave it to me, I will definitely help you fulfill it.”
The moment Director Wang's voice fell, the old lady seemed to have really heard it. Her hand that was originally lying flat on her stomach suddenly relaxed, and powerlessly drooped to the side of the door. With an extremely precise ”pa” sound, she slapped Director Wang's face, who was kneeling at the side with his head lowered.
Ah!
Seeing the situation, the faces of the two knowledgeable staff members from the funeral home changed. They instinctively took two steps back and looked at Director Wang in fear.
No matter how I looked at it, it seemed as though the old lady who had already died had slapped Director Wang.
For a moment, the two of us looked at each other, stunned.
However, it was also at this moment that Director Wang stood up with a calm expression, glanced at his mother's corpse, and said in a low voice, ”Again!”
Looking at his expression, my heart started beating faster. I thought how unfilial it was for Director Wang to let my dead mother slap him, so I instinctively took a step back and looked at Director Wang and the two cowering staff members who were holding up the door.
As expected, the door remained unmoved.
Seeing such a stalemate, I started to get anxious. If this old lady refused to get on the carriage, I wouldn't be able to finish it. If I couldn't finish it, I wouldn't be able to return home!
Director Wang looked as though he had lost his temper. After the two staff members let go of him, he didn't give up and continued to struggle aimlessly.
”Buzz!”
At this moment, an extremely soft voice entered my ears. I immediately quivered and hurriedly raised my head to survey my surroundings.
It wasn't that I was scared, but ever since I knew that I had been entangled by the two 'Nether Annihilation', I had been on tenterhooks, afraid that those two things would come back for me.
However, there was no sign of him.
I couldn't help but smile to myself. I thought that I might have made myself too popular, so I looked towards the old lady again.
However, I immediately saw through the problem with this glance.
So it turned out that those two ”Apocalypse” were hiding in the creases of the old lady's clothes. If not for the old lady tearing the creases in her clothes from Director Wang's slaps earlier, it would have been difficult for me to discover them.
I was surprised and happy at the same time. The first thing I thought of was that the problem of whether or not the old lady's body could be carried around would definitely arise from here. Thus, I lightly touched Director Wang who was using his brute force and quietly pointed to the location where the two ”Extinction Underworld” were hiding and said, ”Director Wang, take a look.”
Director Wang was currently very agitated. He looked at the two bugs and said, ”Isn't it just two bugs?”
As he spoke, he reached out his hand to drive away the ”Extinguish the Serene”. Then, he lifted the door again.
What a coincidence, who would have thought that with just a light lift of the Director Wang's arm, the door actually made a ”bang” sound.
”Quick, help!” Director Wang's face lit up, he immediately called for the two staff members to help him, leaving me in the dust.
