Merchant of the Underworld

We were kicked out by the village chief. Even though He Yongfu said a lot of good things, the village chief didn't let go.

I sighed, knowing that things were not going so well! Sometimes, dealing with human feelings is more difficult than dealing with negative things!

Seeing He Yongfu walking out of the village chief's house dejectedly, I patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Brother He, do you know who has higher prestige in this village besides the village chief?"

He Yongfu thought for a while and said: "There is a family named Bai in the village. He built a primary school, an ancestral hall, and roads for the village. Therefore, Mr. Bai is the most supported by the people in the village. Generally, when major events happen in the village, they will I went to discuss it with Mr. Bai, but Mr. Bai has a weird temper and usually doesn’t see strangers."

I sighed, most afraid of meeting the stubborn old man. But he had no choice but to say: "Brother He, please take me to Mr. Bai's house."

He Yongfu nodded.

Suddenly, Li Mazi patted his thigh and said in surprise: "Boss Bai's hometown seems to be from this village."

"What?" I was surprised and a little depressed at the same time: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Li Mazi said politely: "I only remembered it after I heard you mention the Bai family. At the banquet that day, Boss Bai boasted to me, saying that he was from Fujian and lived in Yinren Village since he was a child. After he came out, he set up a street stall to sell fake goods. It is the goods who make the business big! He has wanted to return to his hometown several times, but his old man will not let him come back, saying that the village is too poor and there is no future for him to stay in the village. "

"Is the Boss Bai you are talking about the same Boss Bai who is currently in the antique business?" He Yongfu suddenly asked.

"Yes!" Li Mazi replied casually.

"Then this matter will be easy to handle." He Yongfu replied with a smile: "Boss Bai is Mr. Bai's favorite grandson and the only child of the Bai family. If he can help you, Mr. Bai will be able to pass the message... "

Li Mazi looked at me, and I almost kicked him: "Why are you still standing there? Call Boss Bai quickly!"

After a while, Li Mazi ran over happily holding his mobile phone and said as if he wanted to take credit: "Boss Bai agreed and said he would take the flight tonight."

I raised my head and looked at the sky, thinking about the time when Boss Bai would arrive at Yinren Village. The flight tonight would have to arrive tomorrow afternoon.

That night, He Yongfu tried hard to persuade us, but the village chief allowed us to stay at his house for one night.

The village elder's wife cooked a table of simple farm dishes, including a plate of fried beans, a bowl of cucumbers, a cabbage soup, and a plate of fried screws. I ate two bowls of rice.

The village chief arranged for Li Ma, He Yongfu and I to squeeze into a small room outside, while Yin Xinyue and Wang Xun'er slept in the back room.

As night fell, the village became very quiet. This tranquility made us slowly relax after a stressful day.

However, lying in bed, I didn't feel sleepy at all. Because as soon as I close my eyes, the three giant pythons are all in my mind. In my dream, they are staring at me, spitting fiery red pythons, as if they want to swallow me in one bite...

Maybe they were too tired from the past two days, but Li Mazi and He Yongfu snored as soon as they touched the pillow.

After looking at the yellow electric light above my head for a long time, I squinted my eyes and forced myself to sleep. At this time, there was an intermittent hissing sound coming from outside the door. The sound was like the sound of a snake spitting messages, or like a mosquito buzzing and flapping its wings.

In my sleep, I vaguely felt that the voice was getting closer and closer to me, from outside the door to my ears. I just thought it was a mosquito flying in, and subconsciously waved my hand to drive away the mosquitoes.

Unexpectedly, the sound got louder and louder, and finally it was so loud that it seemed to burst my eardrums.

I heard a voice shouting hysterically in my brain: "You beasts, let me go, let me go."

For a moment, I felt like there were countless voices in my head. Now it was the sound of a woman crying, and now it was the evil laughter of a large group of men.

I couldn't help shouting: "No, no! No!"

Suddenly, there was a burning pain on my face, which woke me up. I opened my eyes and found Li Mazi riding on me, grabbing my collar with one hand and shaking my body hard.

He Yongfu squatted aside and looked at me in horror, as if he had seen a ghost. When Li Mazi saw me waking up, he took a long breath and said, "Brother Zhang, I didn't expect you to have sleepwalking."

Sleepwalking? I was confused. Yin Xinyue and I have been sleeping in the same bed for several years and never said anything about me having this problem? I'm sleeping well!

He Yongfu pointed at my arm and said in horror: "Mr. Zhang, look at your hands."

When He Yongfu said this, I felt a burning pain on the back of my hand, which was so painful that I could only gasp. I raised the back of my hand and looked at it. The moment I saw the back of my hand, my whole body turned to stone.

The skin on the back of my hand was torn in large pieces, and the flesh and blood were blurred, even exposing the dense white bones inside. Looking at the wound, it looked like it had been torn open by the claws of some kind of wild beast.

I grinned in pain and cursed: "Damn it, what kind of beast did this?"

Li Mazi and He Yongfu looked at each other with strange expressions. After a while, Li Mazi finally spoke: "This beast is you."

I was stunned for a moment, and countless questions popped up in my heart: "Did I catch myself like this?"

Li Mazi nodded with an ugly expression: "Brother Zhang, you were like crazy on the bed just now. You scratched your left hand with your right hand desperately, and finally scratched it until it was bloody and bloody. You were yelling and sometimes making cooing noises. The sound was so powerful that He Yongfu and I didn't wake up even though we tried our best to scream."

I was stunned after hearing this, and carefully checked my wounds, and found that the injured one was my left hand. My right hand was intact, but there was a lot of flesh and blood left between the nails of my right hand.

Damn it, I cursed in my mind, I didn’t expect that I’d be pecked in the eye after hunting birds all day long. Having been a trader in femininity for so many years, looking at this inexplicable wound, I already knew what was going on. It must have been targeted by some dirty thing!

I thought about it carefully and found that except for the three giant pythons we encountered in the mountain hotel, we were very safe along the way. It must have been those three giant pythons that entered my dream, disturbed my mind, and made me commit acts of self-mutilation.

Now that I understand the crux, I can prescribe the right medicine!

Thinking of this, I walked out of the room. I made too much noise just now, and everyone in the room was woken up by me.

Yin Xinyue and Wang Xun'er ran out with their hair disheveled, and happened to meet me at the door. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have bumped into both of them.

"husband!"

"Brother Zhang!" Yin Xinyue and Wang Xun'er called me at the same time.

Seeing the concerned eyes of the two people, I was very moved. But my heart is too small, and I can only tolerate Yin Xinyue in my relationship.
