Merchant of the Underworld

Li Mazi grinned and smiled at the man in the T-shirt: "Brother, you are back!"

The man in the T-shirt had no expression on his face. He just stretched out two fingers to feel the barrel and said, "The temperature is not enough."

Li Mazi's face immediately turned pale: "Brother, it's hot, it's hot..."

However, the man in the T-shirt ignored Li Mazi and walked directly into the Taoist temple without paying any attention to us.

Yin Xinyue sighed on the side: "I have seen many celebrities. Others pretend to be cool, but he is really cool."

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so I followed Yin Xinyue in.

The man in the T-shirt first offered Wong Tai Sin a stick of incense, and then turned around and looked at us: "Do you have any good ideas?"

I smiled bitterly: "No."

The man in the T-shirt said: "The only way is to use the traditional method to get out the human bone necklace."

Yin Xinyue's face turned pale: "The traditional way...you don't want to cut open Li Mazi's belly, right?"

The man in the T-shirt glanced at Yin Xinyue, his expression was very calm, which surprised me a little. I guess no man wouldn’t want a sexy beauty like Yin Xinyue, right?

The T-shirt man is indeed worthy of the title of aloof.

At this time, he threw the package on his back to me and said, "Choose one for yourself."

"What to choose?" I asked inexplicably.

The man in the T-shirt didn't say anything, so I had to unpack it myself.

Unexpectedly, there were several pieces of ancient clothing inside. Judging from the style, they should be Han Dynasty costumes, and they are all aristocratic, including general uniforms and civil servants' clothes.

The traditional method mentioned by the T-shirt man is probably role-playing, right?

Yin Xinyue burst into laughter and asked the man in the T-shirt if everyone wanted to cosplay later?

Unexpectedly, the man in the T-shirt actually nodded and said he was just cosplaying.

I didn’t realize it, but the man in the T-shirt actually knew this term. It was so down-to-earth!

I searched through the baggage and finally chose a general uniform.

If not for anything else, it's just because this suit of clothes is majestic and full of fish scale-like armor. Under the sunlight of the setting sun, it also reflects circles of halo, which is quite imposing.

It was only when I picked up the clothes that I felt regretful.

This dress is really heavy, weighing at least thirty or forty pounds.

The man in the T-shirt glanced at Yin Xinyue again: "What about you?"

Yin Xinyue was a little surprised: "I want to choose too?"

The man in the T-shirt nodded.

So Yin Xinyue chose carefully, and finally set her sights on a relatively smooth and gorgeous outfit. That should be a piece of clothing that only a princess or queen is qualified to wear, right? Graceful and gorgeous, light red, with many small curved patterns, the cuffs are wide, the waist is very thin, and the collar is a little low. I can't help but start to imagine what Yin Xinyue will look like when she puts on this outfit.

Finally, there was one piece of clothing left, which seemed to belong to a civil servant.

I asked the man in the T-shirt if he was wearing it?

The man in the T-shirt shook his head and threw the clothes next to Li Mazi.

At this moment, the little Taoist boy had helped Li Mazi out of the barrel. The guy's whole body was burned red and he was walking with a slight limp. He was very pitiful.

Yin Xinyue suddenly remembered something and asked Li Mazi if he didn't need to go to the toilet? I've been inside for a whole day.

Li Mazi quickly shook his head and said no, but his face turned red involuntarily.

Yin Xinyue and I looked at each other, and everyone knew that he peed in the bucket.

The man in the T-shirt asked: "Do you know where the resentment about the human bone necklace comes from?"

So I briefly recounted the story of the loyal minister Chao Cuo who was unjustly killed by Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty. But the man in the T-shirt waved his hand and said that what Chao Cuo complained about was not that he was sentenced to death by the emperor, but that he could not even look at his newborn daughter before he died.

I asked in confusion, the man is dead, how do you know what he is thinking?

The man in the T-shirt said: "The last words he said before he died were to pity my unborn daughter."

At this time, Yin Xinyue's face looked a little strange: "You mean, let me play Chao Cuo's daughter? Then who will play Chao Cuo."

The man in the T-shirt pointed at Li Mazi: "He."

Yin Xinyue was a little unhappy and muttered quietly, but didn't say anything. But Li Mazi smiled proudly: "Daughter, let daddy touch you."

An angry Yin Xinyue turned around and left.

Of course I was the general who killed Chao Cuo back then, so I was really worried that I wouldn't be able to perform well. First of all, unlike Yin Xinyue, I was born as a professional actor. I'm born with tender skin and tender flesh, and I don't have any murderous intent. I'm afraid I won't be able to act like a general.

If it was discovered, wouldn't the consequences be dire?

But now that the matter has come to this, there is nothing we can do about it.

However, I saw that the man in the T-shirt looked calm from beginning to end, and I felt much more at ease.

As long as he is here, nothing will happen to us!

At first, he appeared in the hotel without a trace. Even with just one glance, he could tell that I would come to see him today. For these things, I have been completely impressed.

When it was time to eat in the evening, the man in the T-shirt refused to let Li Mazi eat, and said that from now until tomorrow morning, he would not be allowed to touch even a drop of water.

Li Mazi knew it was for his own good, so he didn't say anything.

Even to worry about Li Mazi eating, the man in the T-shirt asked us to move all the edible things in the Taoist temple to the warehouse and lock them up. And there can't be anything that can bite in the room, not even bugs or candles.

I asked the T-shirt man why he did this?

The man in the T-shirt said that at night, Li Mazi would no longer be Li Mazi. He would eat everything he could and then vomit it out. Once he starts vomiting, he's finished and his intestines will follow.

Li Mazi was so frightened that he quickly covered his mouth.

While waiting, I curiously asked the man in the T-shirt why he used these methods to deal with the human bone necklace?

Because these methods do not seem to belong to Taoism, but are very similar to us ghost traders.

After all, in my impression, Taoists all use peach wood swords and charms to conquer demons.

The man in the T-shirt didn't say anything, but the little Taoist boy interrupted: "You are also in the world of yin and yang, how come you haven't even heard of my senior brother's name? You are ignorant."

I was shocked. Could it be that the T-shirt man is also a femininity dealer? I quickly asked the man in the T-shirt his name.

The little Taoist boy was very proud and just wanted to speak, but the man in the T-shirt gave him a cold look and scolded him: "Talk too much."

The little Taoist boy didn't dare to say anything anymore, he just pouted dissatisfiedly.

Unexpectedly, when the rooster crowed, Li Mazi still didn't make any movement. I started to get a little impatient and asked the man in the T-shirt if nothing would happen tonight.

The man in the T-shirt nodded, neither affirming nor denying. He just asked us all to go into Li Mazi's bedroom, and he called the little Taoist boy away, not knowing why.

Looking at Yin Xinyue wearing a light red ancient costume, coupled with that little face with a peerless appearance, she is really charming, and I can feel my heart beating faster after just one look.

Li Mazi became more presumptuous, drooling continuously, and Yin Xinyue was so frightened that she did not dare to approach Li Mazi, for fear that he would do something outrageous.

I was so tired that I lay on the bed and fell asleep without realizing it.

Because I was in a light sleep state, I was always woken up by various small movements. I found that Yin Xinyue was also lying next to me at some point, hugging my arm and sleeping sweetly.

Seeing her cute appearance, I couldn't help but feel a sense of affection and gently touched her face.

Just when I was looking at Yin Xinyue intently, suddenly a sound of grinding teeth came from the direction of Li Mazi!
