Merchant of the Underworld

It's only 9:10 now, and it's basically impossible to stay here until dawn.

I took out my cell phone and prepared to send a text message to Yin Xinyue, treating it as my will. I typed a few words and then deleted it. Firstly, she didn't want Yin Xinyue to worry, and secondly, once she wrote a will, it would give herself a strong hint that she might not be able to survive.

In times of crisis, what people need most is faith, the faith to live.

I secretly warned, for the sake of Xinyue and Fanfan, no matter what, I must crawl out even if I crawl!

I suddenly had a guess, so many strange things happened in this apartment, could they all be hallucinations? I might as well give it a try, so I used a machete to cut off a few wolf hairs from the Sirius whip, and prepared to light it with a zippo lighter.

As a result, as soon as I got closer, the flames flickered and went out.

I lit it again, and the fire went out again. It seemed like something blew it out on purpose, because when the lighter was put out, I felt a cool breeze on the back of my hand.

I looked around and saw nothing, so I kept an eye on it and pressed the lighter again.

The moment I pressed the lighter, I turned around suddenly, and sure enough, a little head emerged from my shadow, pouting and trying to blow out the fire!

I raised the lighter, and the kid stretched his neck. I sneered, grabbed the Silver Moon Scimitar and slashed at it, and the kid disappeared in a whoosh of fright.

Unexpectedly, the lighter was blown out. I looked up and saw a kid in blue clothes hanging upside down from the ceiling. He stared at me with a pair of pupilless eyes and was blowing air into my lighter with his mouth bulging. I came into close contact with it, and a drop of liquid dripped from the tip of its nose and landed on my face. I touched it with my hand. It was sticky. It didn't feel like blood, but... corpse oil!

"Fuck his grandma!" I swore angrily: "I understand, you are afraid of the green smoke emitted by the wolf fur, right?"

The kid grinned, as if to demonstrate to me that it would blow me away no matter how many times I clicked it.

Then you may not be looking down on me too much. I can still light a fire without a lighter! I held the wolf hair in my left hand and lit it with the spiritual fire using the magic talisman. The wolf hair burned my fingers and was very hot, but I gritted my teeth and held on tightly and wouldn't let go.

A ball of smelly leather smoke rose up, and the kid on the ceiling let out a shrill scream and disappeared without a trace.

Haha, I see, these things are sometimes scary!

I grabbed the burning wolf hair and ran out quickly. There were some ghosts on the road who wanted to stop me, but wherever the flames touched, they fled like slugs after seeing salt. Seizing this time, I ran outside the apartment like a gust of wind and quickly put out the flames on my hands. By this time, my fingers had been burned with many blisters.

Seeing the bright moon again and breathing the cold air, I felt extremely excited, and my heart was still beating wildly.

This trip to the apartment alone was extremely embarrassing!

I was exhausted both physically and mentally. I waited for a long time on the side of the road before I found a car. It didn't look like a serious taxi. It was probably a black cab that came out to party at night. I didn't care. I told the driver to go wherever I wanted. Either way, the further away from this hellish place the better.

The driver did not drive immediately, but looked at me suspiciously. I knew what he was thinking. A man with blood on his body ran out of this haunted apartment late at night. He might not be alive.

I took out a hundred yuan and threw it to him and said, "Don't be stunned, drive quickly!"

"Brother, where are you going? Can you give me a destination?"

I thought about it and said, "Just find a bathing center or something."

"okay!"

The driver took me to a relatively prosperous area in Daming County. I found a restaurant to have a good meal, went to the supermarket to buy a bag of refined salt, and then found a bathing center. After taking off my clothes, I saw that I was in terrible shape. There were injuries everywhere, and there were small light cyan ghost handprints from a child's slap.

I entered the sauna room, patted a bag of refined salt on my body, and let the hot steam evaporate the salt to remove the yin energy from my body.

In the sauna room, there are two underworld gangsters competing over who has the best tattoos? When he saw the injuries on my body, he was immediately stunned. After a while, he said, "Young man, it's better for you to hang on. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead!" Then he quickly covered his butt with a towel and ran out.

After taking a shower, I lay in the private room and thought. Maybe I was too tired, so I fell into a deep sleep. When I opened my eyes, it was already dawn.

I got dressed, called a car and returned to the area near the apartment. The old man I met yesterday was still there. When he saw me getting out of the car, he came over excitedly and said, "Young man, I thought something happened to you! So early in the morning Just rush over here and I’ll feel relieved to see you’re fine.”

Okay? I smiled bitterly and almost lost my life.

After all, I was the first person to walk out of this apartment alive. The old man looked at me with a bit of awe. He pulled me and insisted on taking me to drink the specialty Laodoufu here.

The old man took me to a breakfast shop. He said that this breakfast shop has a long history in Daming County and its old-fashioned tofu is excellent. Sure enough, the seats were packed early in the morning, with many people arriving in cars and carrying briefcases. After drinking, they hurried to work. The popularity is comparable to that of Wuhan Hot Dry Noodles.

We ordered some fried dough sticks and two bowls of old tofu. The old tofu made here was so delicious, it was even more delicious than delicacies from the mountains and seas. Maybe it's because I just escaped from hell and my mood is different, just like a person who has walked out of the desert will find tap water extremely sweet.

Oh, it’s so damn good to be alive!

I wanted to ask the old man for more information, but he was just an outsider after all, and his information was limited. After eating, the old man insisted on paying the bill, arguing back and forth. Suddenly, I heard a quarrel, and a waiter stopped a little girl. He scolded: "Whose child is this? He doesn't know how to pay after eating. Where are your parents?"

I turned around and saw what a coincidence. The little girl turned out to be Little Red Riding Hood.

She lowered her head and her face was red with embarrassment. The waiter was probably busy greeting other customers. Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, he became a little angry and yelled in a loud voice: "Speak, are you mute? Call your parents." Pay the money or don’t even think about leaving!”

At this shout, many people cast curious glances. Little Red Riding Hood pouted in grievance, with tears welling up in her big eyes. I quickly stepped forward and said to the waiter: "Brother, what about a bowl of old tofu? I paid how much."

When the clerk heard that someone was paying the bill, his attitude immediately softened: "Brother, it's not me who cares about everything. I also work for others. I earn a lot of money a day. When the time comes to settle the account and there is less money, the boss can't fire me." .”

I paid for Little Red Riding Hood's breakfast. After going out, she said shyly thank you, and then called grandpa to the old man. It turns out that Little Red Riding Hood and her family met the old man when they lived here, and it was the old man who persuaded them to move out.

Little Red Riding Hood is in the first grade of primary school nearby. Although her family has moved, changing schools is too troublesome. Her parents are also tolerant and give her some pocket money in the morning so that the seven-year-old girl can go to school alone. I accidentally dropped my money on the road today, which led to the scene just now...
