Chapter 14: Life and Death

Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/  The latest work of Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng!

Three days passed in a flash.

Bai Changsheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the shiny black coffin in front of him, which was very fulfilling: Although the reputation of "the craftsman of the coffin shop" is not very good, every time he made a new coffin, he looked at the majestic life material and the smooth and traceless paint surface, he felt that it was his own "work of art".

In just three days, I completed such a thick mouthful of longevity. If the arch-rivaled enemy of Bei'anmen would definitely be envious.

Unfortunately, I can't show off any of this business, and no matter how good I do it, it's in vain. I sighed and thought about my future plans. Maybe I would have to rely on this skill to live in my life like my old father.

I haven't tried it before. After all, Bai Changsheng has a carpenter craft and a trick to calculate the account. However, he always encounters walls when he uses it in other industries:

When Bai Sanshi just passed away, Bai Changsheng worked as a carpenter in the courtyard. As a result, he was almost beaten: because he always felt that something was missing, he carved a white "Shou" on the wall and made the curtain of the courtyard look like a tombstone, so this matter naturally turned yellow.

Later, when he thought about not doing craftsmanship to settle the accounts, he went to the pawn shop. As a result, every time a customer came to the house, Bai Changsheng always said silence to others due to his professional habits, and even swept the floor before leaving. Sweeping the pawn shop is different from a coffin shop. It means sweeping the floor and going out. It is too unlucky and was quit after working for a few days.

In desperation, he started his old career and was more comfortable in doing business with dead people. Bai Changsheng accepted his fate. While thinking about his own experience, Bai Changsheng lamented the bizarre experiences he had experienced in the past few days.

At night, I heard that the city tower was filled with moonlight and people were shining.

Bai Changsheng calculated with his fingers, and it was time for Wen Yan to arrive.

Just as I was thinking, I saw a person sneaking out from the alley not far away. It was Wen Yan. While looking around, he tiptoed and quickly walked straight to the coffin shop.

Is it because the thief is scared? Should we tell the government to investigate?

Bai Changsheng was still hesitating, and Wen Yan had arrived. Seeing Bai Changsheng waiting for him, Wen Yan didn't say much, and had some questions to be solved when he talked to Bai Changsheng.

“Are you done?”

Bai Changsheng nodded, turned back to the coffin shop, and waited for Wen Yan to come in according to the rules.

As soon as Wen Yan came in, he saw the boxing shop, and the brand new longevity ingredient stood in the hall. However, Bai Changsheng was a little puzzled, why no one came to pick it up? Do you want Wen Yan to carry it back alone? The coffin is about hundreds of kilograms, how can a weak scholar move it?

"You came here this night and didn't take any action. Why did you move this longevity material back?"

Wen Yan seemed to have planned it, so she was not anxious: "I know, there is no hurry. I have made an appointment with a few people to wait here first and give you the money."

After saying that, he took out a ingot of silver from his waist. This was a large amount. Bai Changsheng said secretly that he thought that if he sued the official, how could he have such a fortune? He was very happy, so he reached out to take it. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to meet it, the silver was pressed by Wen Yan and pressed it in his hand.

"Brother Wen, what is this? Is there anything wrong with doing it? Or is it delayed?"

Bai Changsheng looked a little unhappy: Why did this person go back on his word? He was reluctant to take out all the money?

Wen Yan looked cautious and said to Changsheng with a depressed look:

"I want to ask you, some things are not clear."

"But it's okay."

"Do you know me?"

"Brother Wen Yan was joking. You told me what my surname was that day, how could you not know?"

"Then do you know my brother Wenwu!"

Wen Yan raised his tone a little bit, and a murderous intent in his eyes flew away. Bai Changsheng saw it and thought to himself that he knew you would ask this question long ago. It seems that this matter cannot be hidden. If you take the money, you will tell the government.

He shook his head repeatedly, and Bai Changsheng said he didn't know him. Seeing that Wen Yan was determined to do evil now, he might be in trouble if he was not careful.

Wen Yan raised her voice when she heard this, and felt guilty again:

"I'm still lying. That day, when I wrote my name, you betrayed you. I still said I don't know you, so I'll come here."

Bai Changsheng just refused to admit that the civil and military personnel had been here. Wen Yan Si said for a moment:

"My brother robbed my wife and plundered other people's money. Now I don't know whether it is death or life. This coffin was actually prepared for him. If he was arrested, he would definitely have no life. I want to know all the news about him now, and I hope my brother can tell you."

After Wen Yan finished speaking, he lifted up his robe, knelt down on one knee, and fisted his hands together. This was a great gift. Bai Changsheng saw it in his eyes and thoughts in his heart: It doesn’t look like lying when he looks like this person. He takes his wife and daughter and steals money. But the Wen and Wu are not dead? It’s okay if he doesn’t die, but it’s a life at least.

But he was still a little uncertain, Bai Changsheng asked:

"The civil and military officials are not dead, they kill people and plunder money. Did this coffin be prepared for him?"

"The government has issued a notice, and if you catch it, you will be beheaded. I will prepare it first to prevent people from dying in the future." Wen Yan explained again.

Bai Changsheng also believed it a little. Seeing Wen Yan's expression was very frank, the silver ingot was very charming while the candlelight was too charming, Bai Changsheng still had greed. Then he gritted his teeth and told Wenwu about the situation he met Wenwu that day.

Wen Yan kept kneeling on the ground. When he heard Bai Changsheng telling about what happened to Wenwu that day, he fell to the ground in shock and looked at Bai Changsheng with disbelief:

"He...had prepared a coffin for a long time? This coffin was half made, it turned out to be prepared for me... I said why did it be prepared so soon in three days?"

Bai Changsheng nodded, thinking that this would definitely not be easy to put on him. He sighed and turned outward, picked up the silver and put it in his arms. If he didn't take it, he might have something to say to him in a while.

Wen Yan sat up for a while, tremblingly from the ground, walked directly to the coffin, hugged the coffin, and cried out loudly:

"Why should I do this? If I had known this, why would I have to be like this? If you hadn't been thinking about wealth, would you die in vain later? You even made this coffin for me in advance. Brother, why are you so cruel!"

Alas, the evil is committed in the world, Bai Changsheng sighed. He also felt a little embarrassed. If this Wen Yan didn't...

Wen Yan··Wen Yan killed Wen Wei?

Bai Changsheng was just looking at the emotion and didn't listen carefully. After thinking about it again, he suddenly realized that it was not good: Wen Yan killed Wen Wu!

And such a murderous crime was actually said in front of me! How can I be better off?

After waking up, he suddenly turned around and suddenly saw that Wen Yan had stood up and was behind him! He no longer cried and howled, but only saw tears hanging on both sides, with a bitter expression. His eyes were scarlet and ferocious, and there was no human color. On his trembling hands, there was a bright sharp knife at some point!

"Not blame me, I didn't mean it. My brother is dead. I have to have a burial fellow. You should go on the road, the shopkeeper!"

Wen Yan howled, and regardless of everything, he picked up the sharp knife and slashed at Bai Changsheng!
Chapter completed!
