Chapter 29 The Undertaker Is Ordinary yet Great!

After hearing the girl's explanation, Lin Yuan glared at the photographer fiercely.

There is no such thing as a ghost wall, it's just that he scared himself.

He was fine at first, but he was scared half to death by this guy.

Fortunately, he is safe now.

Lin Yuan looked at the girl and smiled and replied: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm not afraid of delaying your work. Are you done?"

The girl turned her head and looked at the room, smiled apologetically: "Sorry, I just started."

"If you are not afraid, come in and I will talk to you while I put on makeup. If you are afraid, you can wait for me outside."

"It won't take too long. One will be cremated tomorrow, which will take some time to say goodbye to relatives decently. The other one had a car accident and was covered in blood. I will simply deal with it so that the family can come to visit tomorrow."

Lin Yuan nodded and thought for a moment.

To be honest, he was also quite taboo about the deceased. It would be a lie to say that he was not afraid in the middle of the night.

But when he thought about the cute girl in front of him who was not afraid of being alone here, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for him to show cowardice?

And he was also very curious about how the deceased was buried.

Thinking of this, he made up his mind and replied with a smile: "It's okay, I'm not afraid, I'll tell you while you work."

The girl smiled cutely: "Okay! Come in."

"Okay!"

Lin Yuan followed the girl into the dressing room and saw the photographer following.

He quickly turned around and reminded: "Don't take pictures of the deceased."

The photographer nodded: "Don't worry, I know what to do."

After entering the room, what came into view were the two beds in the middle, which were bulging and each wrapped in a piece of white cloth, one of which had a large blood stain printed on it.

The interior of the room was simple and tidy. There were small jars in the wall cabinet on the left wall, which looked like decorations.

There were also rows of neat clothes in the corner for the family members of the deceased to choose suitable clothes.

The room was filled with a solemn and dignified atmosphere, and even the air was a little heavy.

Accompanied by a gust of evil wind.

With a click, the door of the room was closed.

Lin Yuan just took a simple look and then looked at the girl curiously.

The girl first took out a document from her bag, compared it with the information of the deceased on the bed, and signed after confirming the identity.

Then she put on gloves and lifted the white cloth covering the deceased.

Lying on the bed was an old man with gray hair. Judging from his age, he should have died of old age.

In Lin Yuan's sight, the girl took off the clothes of the deceased and covered him with a neat white towel, leaving only his head and feet exposed.

After doing this, the girl smiled and explained: "We are undertakers, in fact, to let the deceased go in a decent way. Even if he has passed away, he cannot expose his body casually."

Lin Yuan nodded, watching intently, completely forgetting what he came for.

Then the girl took out a piece of soap from her makeup bag and washed the face, hair and body of the deceased to remove the bacteria.

Even the gaps between the fingers and toes were cleaned, just like in a beauty salon, so that the deceased could enjoy the last moment of comfort.

After washing the face, apply a water mask on the face of the deceased to keep their skin moist.

After doing all this, the stiff body must be massaged.

Next is makeup.

Makeup for the deceased is different from ordinary makeup.

Because many people do not die normally, some die in car accidents, some fall from buildings, and even murder.

So makeup is not just about making the face look better.

It also requires fixing bones, suturing skin grafts, etc.

This alone is unacceptable to many people, especially those who die extremely horribly, which will leave a psychological shadow.

Fortunately, the deceased who is being buried at this moment died of old age and does not require too many tedious steps.

The girl first fixed the face shape with metal, and then sealed the mouth with glue.

This is to ensure the stability of the facial contour and avoid deformation or distortion during the makeup process.

It is also to prevent cosmetics from entering the mouth of the deceased during the makeup process, and to keep the deceased clean and dignified.

Lin Yuan witnessed the whole process of the girl's coffining, and was amazed.

It seems to be a very ordinary job, just cleaning and makeup, but it depends on who it is.

Ask yourself, he can't do it!

Even if he is paid a high salary, he can't do it.

Before, he had never known about the profession of embalmer.

Even when he heard the name, he would look at it with tinted glasses.

Contact with the dead every day, just thinking about it is chilling.

But today, he had some admiration for this profession for the first time!

The job of the embalmer is to give tenderness and respect to the last moment of life, so that the deceased can go with dignity and bid farewell to the world decently.

The Book of Rites says: "The corpse is moved to the bed, the shroud is covered with a quilt, the clothes for the dead are removed, the teeth of the ministers are wedged with horn tongs, and the feet are decorated with swallow tables."

It can be seen that people have always attached great importance to the dignity of the dead since ancient times.

However, modern society has a great prejudice against this industry, which makes many practitioners unable to raise their heads.

But imagine, if this continues, no one is willing to be a mortician, what will be the consequences?

Many deceased people no longer have the last dignity before cremation. How sad it is for the family members to see their loved ones in such a terrible state.

Especially those who jumped off the building or had a car accident, they dare not look directly at them.

If a person is born, there are nurses and doctors to pick him up, that is called an angel in white.

Then when he dies, there is still a mortician to send him off, which can also be called an angel!

To do such a job, first of all, you must have a strong mental quality. People without great love cannot do this job well.

Because when the mortician is putting on makeup, what he thinks in his mind must be how to make the deceased decent and beautiful, not disgusting!

Just as Lin Yuan was stunned, the girl stood up and breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Sorry, I've delayed your time. I'll trim his nails and shave his beard right away."

"Finally, drain his blood and gas, inject disinfectant and preservatives, and it's over. If you can't wait, you can also introduce me to a house now. My rent is about to expire recently, and I'm in a hurry!"

When Lin Yuan heard that he had to drain his blood and inject preservatives, he felt his hair trembling all over his body.

Although he didn't faint at blood, he felt uncomfortable when he thought of the scene of blood drawing.

He had to laugh and said: "It's okay, you do your thing, I'm not in a hurry, I'll just take a look here, okay?"

The girl smiled happily: "Yeah, okay!"

After getting the nod, Lin Yuan looked at the clothes placed in the corner curiously.

But he wasn't stupid enough to touch it with his hands. Who knows how many deceased people have worn that thing.

What really made him curious were the ceramic jars on the wall cabinet at the door.

Originally, he thought it was used for makeup.

But the girl brought her own makeup tools.

What are these jars for?

Lin Yuan took one down curiously and wanted to open it to see.

But before he could open it, he heard the girl exclaim: "Don't open it! Those are ashes!"

Hearing this, Lin Yuan was so scared that he almost threw the jar away.

He quickly put it back in place, clasped his hands together and kept apologizing: "Sorry, sorry!!"

The girl was amused by Lin Yuan's apology and said jokingly: "Don't be afraid, the ashes have been stored here for a long time and no family members have come to take them. If there really is a ghost, I would have been in trouble a long time ago."
