Chapter 001 Thunderstorm Cry

Shannan County Funeral Firm.

A woman wearing a beige windbreaker with big wavy blond hair and a cool-looking woman standing at the dilapidated and weird door, with rusty iron doors and the signs hanging on the walls making people shudder. At this time, a beautiful woman standing here became a beautiful landscape, attracting pedestrians to look at each other frequently.

My name is Lin Qiuyu. I have just been transferred here for two years and am the person in charge. I have to handle the "fury" in the county according to the rules. I know what she is doing outside. Shannan County is a small place. Two-thirds of the entire area are from mountains. Almost all mountain people are pitifully small. People who dress like her can see each other less than once a year.

"Xiaolin, why is that woman outside here coming again?" Lao Gou handed me a cigarette.

Lao Gou is an old man here, in his fifties. Before I came, he had been acting as a supervisor and worked for decades. At that time, he had less than six people in the entire institute. You may find it strange. What should you say if there are less than six people? According to the number of people, there are indeed only five people, but there is also an old ape in the backyard. It is always included when reporting the budget every year, so that you can report more funds.

"Lao Gou, do you know what she is here for?" I spit out a cigarette and stood in front of the window and looked at her.

"How do I know? But seeing her appearance is from the provincial capital, right?" Lao Gou shook his head, "Often no one wants to come to us unless he comes to ask for a cemetery."

"I hit the nail on the head." I nodded. Many men passing by her on the road were flashing in their eyes and turned around frequently. But when I saw her staring at them with fierce eyes, she suddenly became listless and hurriedly left.

"But they should not be short of money. What kind of cemetery can't be bought in the provincial capital? Why do you come to this remote place?"

"Lao Gou, don't belittle yourself. Do you remember what I mentioned to you? Our Shannan County is full of dragon energy and blessings are the place where turtles sleep." I waved my hand and denied Lao Gou's opinion. "Ordinary people naturally cannot understand the secrets, but those rich people attach great importance to this."

"Is it so mysterious?" Lao Gou pushed his glasses. He was already highly myopic, and the thick lenses exuded a pedantic temperament.

"You turned down the meeting for me yesterday. I expected that she would not give up easily, otherwise she would not be able to explain when she went back. Who should she not come in?" I stepped on the cigarette butt, sighed, and said, "If I wait for someone to come, I will say I am not here."

I looked at her again, then pulled up the curtains without hesitation. There were some shops on the street. Those proprietresses who thought they were a little pretty on the spot all showed disdainful eyes, and some simply grabbed their men's ears and slammed them back into the store.

"Why, you're going out again?"

"I guess the other party is very big and can't afford to offend, so I have to hide." I smiled helplessly.

Lao Gou instantly understood what I meant. Although he was a little pedantic, he had been working here for most of his life. He knew that the cemetery was not a simple piece of land, and some land was given, and some land could not be said. This is not only a matter of the constitution, but also involves the nature of the work. This is what this industry is, and you must abide by this rule no matter what era.

"Miss, I didn't see anyone." I quietly slipped through the back door to the street. When I saw the woman making a phone call, her brows frowned slightly and said respectfully.

"Yes, I'll go now." Her brows frowned deeper, she tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "It should be because she didn't want to see me on purpose. OK, I understand."

"What should he do?" A look of disgust flashed across the woman's eyes, and she was obviously very dissatisfied with me.

"This..." Her voice paused, "Okay."

Then she put on her sunglasses.

Unexpectedly, she did not turn around and walk into the door, but left. I didn't know where she was going, but I was a little worried. The sudden appearance of this woman in the county town made me unconsciously think of the Widow Ridge outside the city...

Speaking of this Widow Ridge and my background, it is necessary to give a detailed explanation.

There is a reason why I came to this funeral office. Three years ago, I was a psychological counselor of the Integrity Bureau of the Yuezhou Municipal Supervision and Inspection Office. After the incident was exposed, I was so angry that I was so embarrassed that I was transferred to Shannan County. It was said that it was a transfer, but in fact it was a dissatisfaction. I thought I had learned about this matter, but who knew that Jin Xiong did not give up and wanted to kill me soon.

"Xiaolin, it's raining heavily, go back..." That night, it was raining heavily, and the mountain city was immediately affected by the disaster. When Lao Gou was about to speak, suddenly, a purple light flashed through the sky.

Lightning burst out, like a sharp sword, cutting through the sky. One after another, shining arcs ran down from the clouds to the edge of the sky. In an instant, it illuminated the crying sky. From a distance, it seemed as if a demon riding a black cloud was dominating.

"Old Gou, thank you for your hard work, I'll go back first." I responded, and as soon as I closed the office door, a sound from afar was roaring in the middle of the low clouds, making people's ears buzzing.

I was so nervous that the geological conditions in Shannan County were extremely poor, and there was a possibility of mountain torrents at any time. With a thunderbolt, the sky and the earth were dim and a giant tree broke into pieces.

The heavy rain instantly filled the entire yard. I went out with an umbrella, and the yellowed mud quickly flooded my ankles.

At night, there was no one on the street. The rain was pouring heavily, and the already dim street lights seemed even more dark at this time. On the mountains in the distance, thick fog was locked, and a flash of lightning flashed across the sky, instantly as bright as daytime.

At this moment, I suddenly saw a long shadow appearing in front of me. It was originally dormant in the darkness, but it suddenly appeared because of lightning. The lightning flashed twice, and the shadow did not move. Who would stand in the rain in the middle of the night, but before I could think too much, a few black shadows emerged around me. I didn't seem to struggle and was knocked out.

"Jin...Jin Xiong..." The last time I saw was my umbrella, which fell alone on the street and was teased unscrupulously by the wind.

For a long time after that, I had no consciousness. When I woke up, I found that I had been placed in the car, my whole body was tied with hemp ropes, and I was also covered with snakeskin bags. The rain hit me, and the road was bumpy, as if I was walking on a mountain road. According to my guess, these killers probably wanted to take action in the deep mountains.

"Room" The thunder in the sky rolled like a violent landslide, as if it was passing through the entire sky. The lightning flashed, and after only a while, another muffled thunder rolled over.

Suddenly another thunder struck and rang out on his head.

It was impossible to shout for help from my mouth. Besides, there was no one in the mountains. I was so angry that I regretted it. At first, Jin Xiong and that little girl were not in love. I had a knife on my head. Unfortunately, when I realized it, the knife was already on my neck.

After more than an hour of bumpyness, I was exhausted. Even if they didn't do it, I felt like I was dying. They pulled me out of the car, as if I was a dead body and fell heavily to the ground.

"Mu Niu, are you here?" I vaguely heard them discussing that it was nothing more than who would do it. For them, everyone would be the same, and everyone was full of blood and debts.

"I'll just come, I'll do it."

As soon as I finished speaking, the snakeskin bag on my head was taken off, and another flash of light broke through the darkness like a fire snake, making a crack in the sky. I knew it would be difficult to survive tonight, and stared at their shiny faces shook by lightning with anger.

"Brother, I'm sorry, that person's money will help others to eliminate disasters." A thin little man said with a gloomy face. As he said, he slowly raised his hand, holding a gun-colored dagger in his hand. On the black sky, lightning hangs a line of golden trees and silver lines like leaves, and the flames flash above his head.

"Wait!" I shouted hurriedly, "How much does it cost to let me go?"

Blue lightning flashes were winding and running around, like strange snakes and pythons.

"Boy, I advise you not to waste your energy. It's not a matter of money. We can't break the rules when we make a living."

"How much does Jinxiong give you? I'll give you twice!"

"Oh?" The little man smiled sinisterly, curled his lips at the other person, deliberately pulling Changyin and saying, "It's 200,000..."

"I'll give you as much as you say!"

"But... do you think I'm like an idiot?" Another killer put his hands on his hips and looked at me with a bad expression, "Do you the fuck do you think Jin Xiong is a fool? If I let you go, can he spare us?!"

After a quick thunder, the strange-shaped tree-like shirt stretched out in all directions, cutting the entire sky into pieces. This time, I opened my eyes wide and stared forward without blinking.

"That's..." I knew I could not escape death, but no matter what, at least I was killed in their hands, and there was a cliff ahead. They chose to take action here, probably because they planned to throw the corpse here.

Lightning demonstrated to the earth with brilliant purple light, making everyone's faces bright and dark. Purple and silver lights on the hills in the distance kept shining. Lightning suddenly hit the ground, and sparks suddenly came and went in and out of the black clouds, like a golden tree uprooted by roots.

I would rather finish it myself.

Just as lightning flashed again and again, at the moment when the chaotic clouds wrapped all the night, I fled.

This time, I was determined without hesitation. There was a cliff below the mountain road less than ten meters wide. It was a rare opportunity to jump down. Even if they wanted to chase them, they would not dare to rush up rashly when facing a drop of dozens of meters. I jumped hard, and the lightning emitted dazzling light, making the dark sky bright in an instant.

Their faces were full of astonishment.
