I run a funeral home, I don't know how to teach people how to slay demons
Chapter 7: The Nameless Person
"Read after me, ah, oh, goose"
"Ah, ugh, uh"
Lu Changsheng patiently taught his little apprentice, who had just regained the ability to speak and had even forgotten the basic pronunciation.
Fortunately, what Lu Changsheng lacked the least was time. As long as he continued to complete the tasks assigned by the system, he might really be able to live forever like his name...
Lu Changsheng closed the Chinese textbook and said, "Jia'er, let's stop here today."
"Although the schools in this world basically teach how to kill monsters and how to use superpowers, the master doesn't want you to be illiterate. Remember the master's words"
"I'm not afraid of gangsters who know martial arts, I'm afraid of gangsters who have culture. We must strive to be cultured gangsters."
"Wet protection...Bull busy...Things go wrong." Although Gu Jia's pronunciation is not good, she is not stupid.
"It's good to be a modest gentleman, but in this world, only gangsters can survive. Remember it? Jia'er"
Gu Jia nodded in confusion.
Although she felt that what the master said was a bit strange, the master was her heaven. Since the master was right, then it must be right.
Lu Changsheng covered her with a quilt with satisfaction and turned to leave the room.
He lay on the bed and checked the details of the mall coins as usual.
[You let Gu Jia speak again and get 500 mall coins]
[By teaching Gu Jia knowledge, get 5 mall coins]
[You let Gu Jia learn to cover the quilt and get 10 mall coins]
[Gu Jia's Xiantian Gong experience increased by 4% through hard practice, and got 40 mall coins]
[Total mall coins: 565]
Lu Changsheng looked at the long details and was stunned.
Dog system.
[I am]
Is there any profit in teaching Jiaer to read?
[All effective education for apprentices can get mall coins, please continue to work hard]
[When the mall coins reach 5,000, the skill store will be opened]
Lu Changsheng was stunned.
He was able to snatch Gu Jia back from the traffickers because of the Xiantian Gong he had drawn before.
If Jiaer is equipped with a few more skills, he can really hold on to his apprentice's thigh and take off all the way!
Lu Changsheng was overjoyed.
......
Early morning.
Lu Changsheng rarely slept in.
In the past, except for going out to buy some vegetables every day and occasionally seeing new blood stations to refresh himself, Lu Changsheng hardly moved.
Anyway, the little apprentice took care of the family affairs, and Gu Jia was very self-disciplined in cultivation, and there was no need for Lu Changsheng to watch over her.
But today he was uncharacteristically waiting at the door of Changsheng Hall early.
A black hearse stopped silently, and two staff members wearing masks moved a body to the southeast corner of Changsheng Hall with quick movements.
There was a room there, which was a "morgue" specially used to place coffins.
The staff skillfully put the body into the "mourning hall" of Changsheng Hall and left without saying a word.
Lu Changsheng put on the mask quickly and took the makeup tools.
This "body" is the "unnamed list" sent to him by Lincheng Municipal Government.
As the name suggests, these bodies are all nameless people. Nowadays, the war on the front line is intense, and it is difficult for the people to survive. Few people will spend a lot of money on funerals.
In order to prevent funeral homes like Changshengtang from going out of business, Lincheng Municipal Government occasionally sends them some unnamed lists.
Although the unit price is not high, in recent years, besides selling blood, this has been Lu Changsheng's second most important source of income.
It is easy to deal with unnamed lists because there are no relatives and friends to find fault. As long as the body is simply handled and the relevant departments come to take pictures and confirm, you can wait for the funding.
Some unscrupulous funeral homes want to save money even on makeup, and just photoshop the photos and send them away.
Lu Changsheng is different from them. Although he lives a tight life, he has never been perfunctory about his work.
At least let the guests have a dignity to complete the last journey, this is his bottom line.
As for the cheap coffin, Lu Changsheng believed that the guests would not mind. After all, most of them died of starvation on the streets before they died. It would be nice to have a house to stay in temporarily, right?
"Today's guest is so young..."
Lu Changsheng turned over the white cloth covering the guest.
His "guest" was a young woman, no more than 20 years old, with regular features and fair skin.
Of course, most of Lu Changsheng's guests had very fair skin, the kind of pale white...
"There is no fatal wound, it should be sudden death."
"The fingers are intact, there is no mud and sand, there was no struggle before death, the guest should not have suffered much when you left."
"And your face is not damaged, you can make it up perfectly, you must have left beautifully."
Lu Changsheng always used to put on makeup while chatting with guests.
He felt that in this way, the guests would feel that they were more like a person, not a piece of cold frozen meat.
Even though Lu Changsheng knew that his guests would never give him a five-star rating.
"Husband, this sister Ji is so beautiful."
Gu Jia had come to Lu Changsheng's side without knowing when.
She looked at the guest lying in the coffin quietly, without any fear or discomfort.
Lu Changsheng looked at the little apprentice with a little surprise. He took out a new mask from the tool box and put it on Gu Jia.
"Jia'er, aren't you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid. The mouths of the dead are not afraid, but the mouths of the living are afraid."
Lu Changsheng was startled.
He looked at his little apprentice with a little distress. What kind of life could allow a twelve-year-old girl to say such words...
"Jia'er, can master teach you how to put on makeup? It can make my sister more beautiful."
"Okay, wait a minute, Shizuru, I'm going to get a chair."
Lu Changsheng took advantage of Gu Jia's departure and pulled up the white cloth to block the terrible corpse spots.
I have to say that Gu Jia still has some talent for Bai Shi.
With just a little guidance from Lu Changsheng, she fully understood her master's intentions.
Women's natural aesthetic advantages allowed her to put on more delicate makeup than Lu Changsheng for the first time.
The guest in the coffin soon had a new look thanks to the efforts of the master and the apprentice.
Peaceful and comfortable.
It seemed like she was just asleep.
"Shihu, does this Sister Ji really have no relatives?"
"Well, all the unlisted names are not claimed by relatives. Maybe her relatives are already waiting for her in another world."
"Same as me...but I have a wet guard, so I don't count as a person, right?"
Lu Changsheng looked at his little apprentice with a little distress, and gently touched her little head.
"Well, I'm not alone anymore, not anymore..."
Lu Changsheng chose a simple plain dress so that the guests could leave in dignity.
Since the guest had no family members, Lu Changsheng decided for her and placed yellow flowers around the mourning hall to make the girl look more energetic and not too lifeless.
After doing all this.
He took Gu Jia's little hand and bowed respectfully to the guest.
Originally, he only needed to notify the staff to take a photo, and the order was completed and could be sent directly to the crematorium.
But Lu Changsheng insisted that the guest stay for seven days before leaving. Even if no one cared about the guest during his lifetime, he also hoped that the guest would not be too lonely during the last part of the journey.
The master and apprentice quietly left the guest's resting place.
What they didn't notice was...
A slender palm trembled slightly, and the pink nail polish that Gu Jia had painted for her still remained on the nails of the palm...
