Pawnshop No. 8: Lord of Darkness

"Boss Lin, are one hundred people too few?"

Zhu Ziming was very dissatisfied.

What he pawned was his own soul.

If you want to say what is the most precious thing in this world, it must be the soul. As long as the soul is immortal, anything is possible.

Use your soul in exchange for more than three hundred Zhu Ziming didn't think that Pawnshop No. 8 suffered any loss in this transaction.

Lin Yan said:"This is hundreds of lives, do you think it is so easy to save?"

"Also, as far as I know, most of the people were blown to death or burned to death. The bodies were not complete at all and needed to be reshaped. This was not easy for Pawn Shop No. 8."

Lin Yan is telling the truth.

He is good at killing people.

If it is to reshape the body and return the soul to its shell, then with Lin Yan's current ability, it will take a lot of effort.

This is not his area of ​​expertise.

In fact, this transaction , Lin Yan didn't want to accept it.

If it weren't for the pawn provided by Zhu Ziming, Lin Yan would have really refused.

Therefore, Lin Yan had to give a discount to the more than 300 people Zhu Ziming requested.

On the other hand, Zhu Ziming still didn't want to accept it. I agree with Lin Yan.

It doesn't matter how difficult it is.

Saving people is your business and has nothing to do with me. All I have to do is pay the pawn.

As for the difficulty, that's a matter for your No. 8 pawn shop.

He shook his head and said :"One hundred people can’t do it. Hearing this

, Lin Yan looked at Zhu Ziming and said,"What does Mr. Zhu mean?"

After thinking for a while, Zhu Ziming said:"At the very least, we have to save all the villagers. As for the Route Army soldiers, we don't have to save them.""

Looking at Lin Yan, he probably couldn't accept 317 human lives.

If he had to make a choice, he would naturally consider ordinary people first.

And the rest, as soldiers, would never take any From the moment he fired his gun, he already had the consciousness of sacrifice.

After so many years of resistance, have the road soldiers still died?

War is so cruel.

Lin Yan asked:"How many villagers are there?"

"About one hundred and six."Zhu Ziming said.

Militiamen are also soldiers, including people from the Women's Rescue Association.

Apart from these, the remaining women, children, old and young, about 160 years old.

Zhu Ziming must save these people.

Lin Yan thought After a while, he said:"Mr. Zhu means that when Yamamoto attacked Zhao Jiayu, the independent regiment soldiers who died, including all the militiamen and the Women's Rescue Association, except for these people, other villagers must be saved. I understand it correctly." ?"

"That's right. Zhu Ziming nodded. That's what he meant, and there was no room for negotiation.

Seeing Zhu Ziming's firmness, Lin Yan said no more, nodded and said,"Okay, deal." Seeing that Lin

Yan agreed, Zhu Ziming breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, Yiyi placed the complete transaction document in front of Zhu Ziming.

Looking at Zhu Ziming who picked up the pen, Lin Yan crossed his hands on the table. Said:"I want to remind Mr. Zhu that if you lose your soul, you will never be able to return. You will sleep in the No. 8 pawnshop forever and ever, and you may disappear into ashes at any time and completely disappear between heaven and earth. Do you understand?""

"Disappear completely? Zhu Ziming's hand holding the pen trembled.

Lin Yan said:"Yes, since Mr. Zhu pawned his soul to us, Pawn Shop No. 8 naturally has the right to do whatever it takes.""

As the owner of No. 8 Pawn Shop, Lin Yan has the obligation to let the parties involved, that is, the customers, know these consequences. Zhu Ziming understood.

In other words, once he signed, his soul would be trapped in No. 8 Pawn Shop forever.

He paused briefly. After a pause, he thought of the villagers who died because of him, and then solemnly signed his name at the end of the transaction book.

Putting away the transaction book, Lin Yan smiled and said:"Happy cooperation, those villagers who died will soon come back to life."

"Before that, I have to collect the pawn."

Hearing these words, Zhu Ziming's body trembled.

Although he had already made a decision, it would be false to say he was not afraid of such a big matter.

He hesitated for a moment and said:"Boss Lin, I can see it with my own eyes. Do they come alive?

Lin Yan's hand that he just raised paused in mid-air, blinked and said,"Is it necessary?""

Zhu Ziming was silent

"Yes, there is indeed no need... then forget it."

Zhu Ziming smiled bitterly.

How could he still have the courage to face those dead people?

After seeing Zhu Ziming completely give up caring, Lin Yan raised his hand, and his breath swept out, covering Zhu Ziming's whole body.

As the energy rolled, Zhu Ziming His consciousness gradually disappeared, and he slowly closed his eyes.

Soon, his body gradually shrank, and finally turned into a ball of light, suspended in the air.

Lin Yan waved, and the ball of light floated over and landed on the palm of his hand.

Next to him , Yiyi came over with a glass bottle.

After staring at the light in his hand for a while, Lin Yan suddenly said:"Yiyi, what do you think will happen if I swallow this thing?"

He didn't know why he had such an idea.

Desire?

Or curiosity?

Hearing this, Yiyi smiled and said:"The master's soul can be strengthened, but not by much. After all, it is a mortal soul. Lin

Yan nodded.

But after thinking that this ball of light represented a person, Lin Yan couldn't help but shudder, and then without hesitation, he put Zhu Ziming's soul into the glass bottle.

"That kind of thing is quite disgusting."

If Lin Yan really swallowed such a thing, wouldn't it be the same as cannibalism?

He was not so crazy.

After moving his shoulders a little, Lin Yan stood up and said,"It's time to get to work."

Yiyi was about to turn around and go to the archives. At this moment, she seemed to have thought of something. She stopped and said:"Master, there is a very complicated cause and effect between the underworld and No. 8 Pawnshop. If you encounter obstacles, you'd better be merciful."

"I know."

You don't need to remind Yiyi about this kind of thing, Lin Yan knows it well.

After all, it is the land of reincarnation and plays an important role in the world.

If you want Pawnshop No. 8 to gain a foothold in the world, strength alone is not enough, you must leave behind Point principles and bottom line

……

In a certain world, Zhao Jiayu.

Over the village, Lin Yan walked out of the void and looked down at the messy village.

There are ruins everywhere, and houses burned to black charcoal.

It was obvious that a terrible battle had taken place here.

Although the number of people is small, small-scale battles are sometimes more cruel than large army confrontations.
