"This, this is" Wang Niu I can't figure it out. Since the body has been completely changed, why should the body be placed here? Can't it be cremated directly? Li seemed to see the confusion in Wang Niu's eyes, and said to him, "This is what the family requested, and the family also gave a very generous sum of money." After hearing this, Wang Niu saw a car in front of him. He couldn't help but become curious in his heart, how much the money was. "Master Li, can you tell me how much money the family gave me?" he asked Lao Li curiously. Lao Li smiled and said to him, "This is a secret." Then Lao Li walked aside, and his eyes followed Lao Li as he walked over. There was a place where something existed. I saw Lao Li take it out from somewhere. He picked up a suitcase and placed it next to the body. Wang Niu looked at it curiously. Lao Li opened the suitcase. Inside were some tools for makeup. In addition, Lao Li also brought some tools similar to clay. This thing suddenly aroused Wang Niu's curiosity. He couldn't hold it in anymore. He looked at Lao Li and asked him why he used this kind of thing. Lao Li did not look at him. Instead, he was busy with the work at hand and said to him, "This is for makeup on the corpse. Have you noticed that this corpse looks terrible and the family does not want to see it." The dead relatives are like this, so we can save money and let us make repairs." After Lao Li said this, he understood. Then, he saw Lao Li picking up something similar to clay and playing with it in his hand, as if he was trying to pinch some shape. After a while, he saw a very big shape appear on Lao Li's hand. He was still a little surprised that it looked like a real nose. Then, Lao Li put this thing on the corpse. He didn’t know what he used. After a while, the corpse looked like The fact that it looks like a real nose still shocked Wang Niu a lot. I didn’t expect that Lao Li actually had such a powerful skill. After Lao Li installed the nose on the corpse, he then added a face to the corpse. After doing the processing, a normal face appeared in front of Wang Niu in less than a moment. "Master Li, you are so awesome." Wang Niu couldn't help but exaggerate. Old Li smiled and continued. After a while, Lao Li painted the corpse with exquisite makeup Wang Niu Only then did he realize that the corpse was a woman, and she was very beautiful. At this time, Lao Li took out a photo. It was a woman. Photos of girls.
Wang Niu took a closer look and realized that the woman on the corpse looked exactly like the girl he had seen. Suddenly, he felt a pang of regret; she was so young to have died.
He turned to Old Li and said, "It's such a pity for this girl. She's so beautiful and so young to have passed away."
As soon as he spoke, Old Li's expression changed dramatically. He quickly covered Wang Niu's mouth, hissing, "Who told you to say that in front of the corpse?"
Wang Niu was taken aback. He hadn't done anything wrong; why was Old Li so angry?
"Master Li, what's wrong?" Wang Niu asked, puzzled.
Old Li's face remained stern. "Do you know what the biggest taboo is in our line of work?"
Wang Niu shook his head, replying, "I don't know. Is it that we can't talk in front of the corpse?"
Old Li shook his head. "It's not that we can't talk in front of the corpse; it's that we mustn't show any sympathy for them. If they sense sympathy from someone, they might linger around that person instead of moving on to the next life."
Wang Niu was instantly shocked by Old Li's words. Did that mean his earlier comments had consequences?
His expression turned fearful as he hurriedly asked Old Li what to do.
Old Li glanced at the corpse before turning back to Wang Niu. "It's fine; the corpse hasn't reacted yet. But remember, you must never speak like that in front of a corpse again, understand?"
"Got it."
Old Li grunted in acknowledgment and returned to his work. After hearing Old Li's warning, Wang Niu felt too uneasy to go back inside and instead sat outside waiting for him. It was then that he suddenly heard the sound of high heels approaching, as if someone were walking toward him. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman appearing not far away.
He froze for a moment, bewildered. How could there be a woman at this funeral home?
The sound of high heels continued to draw closer, and the woman's figure slowly approached him step by step.
Wang Niu felt a bit nervous, as the words of Old Li echoed in his mind.
Could it really be...
Wang Niu dared not look back, quickly shifting his gaze elsewhere. However, the footsteps grew closer, causing his heart to race. He thought of Old Li still being inside and hoped nothing was wrong.
Before long, a woman appeared before him, intensifying his anxiety. Just then, her skirt brushed against his thigh, and he caught a faint scent in the air.
"Hello, do you know where Master Li is?" A melodious voice reached his ears. He froze for a moment, lifting his head to meet the woman's beautiful face.
For a brief instant, his mind went blank; he could only think that this woman was stunningly beautiful—almost unreal.
He pointed the way for her, and she walked toward the room. Just before entering, she glanced back at him.
This made him feel inexplicably strange, stirring a peculiar sensation within him.
After she entered, Wang Niu felt puzzled. Time passed slowly, and she had yet to come out. Suddenly feeling odd about it, he stood up and was about to go inside when Old Li emerged from within, just as he was about to close the door.
He paused for a moment—why was he closing the door when there was still a woman inside?
He quickly stopped Old Li. The action startled Old Li, who looked at him in confusion. "What's wrong with you?"
Wang Niu was taken aback by Old Li's question. Was there another exit inside?
"Master Li, is there another passage here?"
Old Li blinked in surprise and shook his head. "It's fine. But what's going on with you? You look strange."
A chill ran down Wang Niu's spine at those words. He shook his head. Old Li gave him a curious glance but said nothing more as he led him away from there.
They walked to the back of the Funeral Home, which was where the staff resided.
As they walked in, they saw many people, all of whom were employees of the Funeral Home.
Suddenly, Wang Niu felt a strange sensation from these individuals.
"Master Li, what's wrong with these people?" he asked.
Master Li glanced at the employees and replied to Wang Niu, "Don't pay attention to them, and don't talk to them, understood?"
Wang Niu was taken aback for a moment but nodded in acknowledgment.
Then, Master Li led Wang Niu up to the fourth floor. Upon entering, Wang Niu was greeted by walls covered in talisman papers. He paused, wondering why there were such things here.
Seeing the puzzled expression on Wang Niu's face, Master Li explained, "This is quite normal. You know our work is different from ordinary people's; we naturally have to do certain things."
Wang Niu thought about it and agreed. He followed Master Li to a room at the end of the hall. Master Li pointed to a white door and said, "Tonight, you'll sleep in here. I'll come to wake you up tomorrow."
