Ten Thousand Clans: Evolution begins with the fusion of red ghosts

Chapter 5 【】: The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.

Hear the words.

The old octopus also stopped smiling and became serious: "Liar?"

"Centaur said it purchased the prosthetic body from a legitimate channel, but bought the wrong model when placing the order, and the other party refused to return it, so it came to us."

"has a problem?"

"It's a big problem!" Lu Xun frowned, "This is a second-hand prosthetic body, produced ten years ago. It was probably ripped from the corpse of a hippopotamus, and it was probably involved in a murder case."

"Hey~ Why are you so worried? You are a coward."

The old octopus curled his lips disdainfully and said, "Couldn't it be given by a hippo friend? Or picked up on the street? We run a rogue clinic, why do we care so much?"

"You are too unreliable."

Lu Xun said in a deep voice:

"I've said it more than once, you can easily get into trouble if you don't dare to welcome any customers or take any orders. You have to spend your money with your life."

This is also a disagreement between the two.

The old octopus is so greedy for money that he sometimes ignores risks in order to make money.

Even if he is a wanted criminal with a lot of crimes, as long as the other party gives enough money, he dares to open the door and welcome guests.

Just like this centaur guest.

If there is really a murder case against the other party and he reports the illegal clinic after being arrested, then the old octopus is so stubborn that he may even drag Lu Xun into the water and face punishments such as fines and expulsion from school!

But the old octopus insisted on doing this business. First he coaxed and deceived him, and then he lured him with benefits, which annoyed Lu Xun for many days.

In addition, Lu Xun was indeed short of money, so in the end he had no choice but to agree to risk his fortune with him.

"We run a rogue clinic. It's good to have clients. How dare you be picky?"

The old octopus snorted angrily: "I'm not even afraid, so what are you afraid of?"

"Nonsense!" Lu Xun glared and said, "You old guy has half of your body buried in the ground, so of course you have a reason not to be afraid. I am so young and have a great future, how can you compare with me?"

puff!

The old octopus was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, almost vomiting blood.

This brat's attitude towards his "mentor" has changed so much!

When we first met three years ago, this kid called him "master" and treated him with respect.

Half a year later, Lu Xun started teaching. Old Octopus had nothing to teach him, so his title changed from "master" to "old man".

Another year passed, and Old Octopus' status in the clinic declined again, becoming Lu Xun's assistant in the operating room.

The names changed again, such as "Old Octopus, hand me the bone saw", "Old Octopus, give me the scissors", "Old Octopus, please go out, don't be an eyesore here".

Of course, this is not actually Lu Xun's fault.

He did respect his master at first.

But as they get along day by day, the old guy's image in his heart collapses little by little.

This is a stinky old man who is mercenary, greedy, stingy, dishonest, and extremely selfish!

The other party never regarded Lu Xun as his disciple, he just used him, all for profit.

"Is your resentment against me getting bigger and bigger?"

The old octopus put his hands behind his back and said with a smile:

"You're right, youth is capital. You have a great future, and you don't have much time left to stay with me. You can't keep those who should leave."

"But in the limited time we can still get along, we should quarrel less and make more money. You need money more than I do, don't you?"

Hear the words.

Lu Xun was silent for a few seconds.

Then, he looked at the other party indifferently and said:

"Anyway, you're in the dark and I'm in the dark. I can get away at any time. If you send it, I'll find another partner."

"You contact the customer, I will prepare for the operation first."

After that, the two passed by each other.

Everyone goes about their own work.

"Zhizhizhi——"

The whistling sounds of various cutting machines, electric drills, and electric saws rang out in the operating room.

Lu Xun was wearing a dark green surgical gown, a mask and goggles, his eyes were as calm as ice.

The blade tore through the skin, fascia and muscles, and the bones were sawed open one by one.

Blood foam and bone fragments spattered, staining the surrounding curtains red, and arterial blood spurted to the ceiling.

The bright red blood gurgled on the operating table and flowed to the ground, gathering like a stream.

The old octopus stood aside as an assistant, with six robotic arms plus his left and right hands holding various surgical tools.

When Lu Xun needed it, he could hand it over to the surgeon in charge as soon as possible.

This major surgery lasted a full 8 hours!

During this period, the centaur woke up several times and let out shrill screams, but was soon anesthetized and fell asleep again.

When Lu Xun walked out of the operating room, it was almost early morning.

He took off his blood-stained surgical clothes and gloves and went to the bathroom to wash his face, his eyes full of exhaustion.

"Seven missed calls?"

Lu Xun glanced at the communication device on his wrist.

He put his phone on mute during the surgery and didn't notice the call.

My aunt made three calls and my cousin made four calls.

He quickly called home.

The phone only rang for half a tone before being quickly connected. The other party seemed to have been watching the communication device and was still awake at this hour.

"Hello? Auntie, I just finished my work and will go back later. Huh? There's no need to heat up the food. I'll have some late-night snacks outside... Okay, then I'll go back early. You can just heat it up and put it on the table. No need. Wait for me. Um, um, I understand. You should go to bed early. You have to take Xiaoyu to school tomorrow morning. "

End communication.

Lu Xun showed a helpless expression.

His aunt insisted on giving him hot food, saying it was not safe to stay out at night.

Can't beat her.

However, it is indeed not safe at night in the outer city.

Street gangsters and gangsters appear frequently, and drag racing gangs often bombard the streets.

We even occasionally encounter big scenes where evil forces are fighting.

…

After washing my face, I felt much more awake.

Lu Xun put on his wig, sunglasses, and mask again and walked out of the bathroom.

As soon as I came out, I saw the two-meter-tall centaur warrior from a distance.

It has a human shape from the waist up, and a tall horse body with four legs from the waist down.

The horse's back was covered in blood, but the hideous wounds had been closed.

After the surgery, a pair of lifelike wing "tattoos" appeared on the horse's back, which only need to be activated to unfold the mechanical wings.

Just after a major surgery that damaged his muscles and bones, he was able to walk on the ground and jump around.

This is due to the advancement of technology.

As long as you don't do particularly strenuous exercise and take painkillers on time, it won't affect your daily life.

It will take some time to fully recover.

Implanting civilian-grade prosthetics does not have many side effects.

The old octopus nodded and bowed before sending the guests away.

Then he walked towards Lu Xun and handed him an account sheet.

"According to the previous agreement, after deducting the cost of the money earned from this business, you will get 80% and I will get 20%. Check it and I will settle the settlement for you if there is no problem."

Lu Xun took it and looked at it once, then nodded.

Most of the time the two are evenly divided.

The old octopus is responsible for the customer base, and provides the place, tools, and medicine needed for the operation, as well as acting as an assistant.

Lu Xun is purely the chief surgeon.

But this time there was something special. Lu Xun spent a lot of effort to complete the transformation of the prosthetic body, which was a huge contribution.

So he takes 80%.

The old octopus was also very happy. He immediately took out a wad of banknotes and started counting them one by one in front of him.

Transferring money is actually more convenient, and the money arrives in your account in a second, but it is very unsafe and easily exposed.

In the black industry, it is still more reliable to use cash.

"Ninety-eight thousand six hundred yuan, I'll give you the whole amount, so that you don't have to look bad in front of me every day."

The old octopus cursed and slapped one hundred thousand dollars in cash into Lu Xun's hand.

Lu Xun weighed the thick stack of banknotes, couldn't help but smile, and put the money into his pocket.

But the old octopus began to sneer: "Damn it, I was still shouting about quitting it before, but when I split the money, I smiled so brightly. The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish. Do you understand now?"

"The stronger the wind and waves, the easier it is for the boat to capsize." Lu Xun raised his index finger, shook it, and said to him: "We are in the same boat, but you are the one rowing the boat, and I don't have an oar in my hand."

"Old Octopus, I have no objection to you going out to sea to fish on a stormy day, but please let me get off the boat first next time."

"I don't want to play with you, do you understand?"

He thought that the old octopus would argue with him like before, and would not accept anyone.

But what was more surprising was that the old octopus did not talk back this time.

The old man looked at Lu Xun steadily with his electronic eyes and remained silent.

He stared at Lu Xun for more than ten seconds.

Suddenly he spoke and asked coldly:

"Xiao Lu, if you only need to go out to sea once in the most stormy weather to catch all the fish in the sea... do you still want to get off the boat?"
