How could anyone be out there in the middle of the night? After so much going through, at least my gut told me that something wasn't right.

Pressing his hand on his waist, the figure on the opposite side looked blurry, because the light was not good and I couldn't even see whether the man or the woman was standing opposite. There is a distance of about 100 to 150 meters, which does not sound far, but in reality, the other party is almost a small dot to the human eye.

I slowed down and shouted, "Friend on the other side, are you still walking at night so late?"

I'm not afraid of the other party being a robber or a wandering bum, but of the other party's unclean stuff.

But at this moment, one of the several figures in the distance took a few steps forward.

"Hey, where did your friend come from? haha. ”

I shouted with a smile.

But as soon as I finished speaking, a street lamp next to me suddenly burst on, and the bulb shattered instantly, and the sound of the explosion startled me. As soon as his face changed, the aura around him changed greatly, and there was a gloomy black aura flowing on the ground. I pulled out the Tushan knife suddenly, and the other party must have come badly.

"Bang!"

A street lamp on the other side also shattered, and the arc beat to make a "hissing ......" sound, and the broken glass on the ground reflected a strange light, pale yellow, as if the afterglow of the street lamp had not yet dimmed.

"Hey, it's a ghost on the other side!

I shouted.

"Buzz!"

The surrounding glass made a strange noise, I subconsciously retreated, but the black gas on the ground pounced on me and wrapped my feet, this black gas I thought it was yin qi at first, and slashed a few times with the Tushan knife, but there was no reaction at all.

My heart jumped faster, and at this moment, the glass on the ground actually floated up, several pieces of broken glass slowly spliced together, and a strange face faintly appeared in the pale yellow light above, which at first glance looked like a human face, but under the flickering light, this human face gradually became a skeleton, and the glass was sticking closer and closer to me, almost pressing on my face. The skeleton above opened its mouth and roared at me, silent but even more terrifying.

I raised the Tushan knife and slashed down, the glass was shattered in an instant, and the broken glass shards fell from the air, and then I looked in front of me but there was no figure. The black aura that entangled me slowly receded like a tide.

I let out a long exhale, holding my Tushan knife and looking around vigilantly, after a few moments to make sure that no one in the vicinity was really relieved.

I went down to the fat man's house with anxiety, and when I got to the door, it should have been almost four o'clock in the morning, but I didn't expect the lights of the fat man's house to be on. Hasn't this grandson slept yet?

I took out the key and opened the door, and when I entered the living room, I saw the fat man and Luo Qiong sitting in the living room talking, and Xiaoxiao was watching from the side.

"It's so late, haven't you slept yet?"

I asked curiously.

"You're finally back. The fat man immediately stood up, walked behind me and looked out vigilantly, then pulled me in, hurriedly closed the door, and turned back and said, "Keep an eye on me, don't be overheard." ”

Xiao Xiao immediately shook her body.

"What's wrong?"

I knew something was wrong and hurriedly asked.

"Today, during the day, Luo Qiong and I went to investigate the matter of the monkey, and the people from Mr. Tang's side gave the news that the trace of the monkey had been discovered, and we were not the only ones who knew about it. At that time, Luo Qiong and I rushed over to check and found that there were many people who came, and the number of peers on the road was also relatively large. When we went, we were targeted by a lot of people......"

This is a reasonable situation, and in the end, it is not only the monkey that has to be dealt with, but also the peers. There must be competition in business, and if you can't compete, others will only starve.

"When we both came back, we didn't think it was anything wrong at first. You haven't come back for a long time, Luo Qiong and I are ready to wait for you to come back to sum up. At about eleven o'clock in the evening, seeing that you still haven't come back, I originally planned to rest first. But as soon as I lay down, I felt something was wrong outside. First, the portrait of the ancestor I hung in the room floated up for no reason, and then the incense on it suddenly broke. I felt that something was wrong, so I asked Luo Qiong to climb to the courtyard wall and take a look, and found that there were three or four suspicious guys outside. One of them seems to be still doing it. I found out and fled in a panic, obviously we were being watched, and it was estimated that there were choked guys who wanted to take out the competitors in advance. Luo Qiong and I don't seem to have much ability, they definitely want to sneak in on us first. ”

As soon as the fat man said this, I immediately told the scene that had just happened on the road. The three of them must have been targeted.

"Uncle, the thing you saw is called a skeleton. ”

The little one next to me suddenly said to me.

"Skeletons, what's that?"

I asked curiously.

"When I was with my mother-in-law in the past, I saw people who used this method, and they usually found some masters who had cultivated before their deaths, and used their bones to refine something, and they could refine something strange from the bones. It's like ghosts, but a lot of magic weapons are useless to them. But this kind of spirit can't float out like a soul. They can only exist in mirrors or something like that. ”

Xiao Xiao's remark coincided with what I saw.

"The person I bumped into didn't mean to be a killer yet, and it looked like he was just trying to warn me. Let's not fight with them, this is a provocation and a threat. ”

I thought about it and said.

"Then what should we do? I see that there are a lot of people eyeing us, and most of them are masters in the industry, and we are afraid that we can't beat them. ”

The fat man said with a frown.

We have indeed just entered the industry for a short time, and although we have experienced a lot of things, we have accumulated too little resources and experience. Each of these people outside is an old oilman who has been working on the road for many years, and the magic weapons at hand are even more mysterious and unpredictable.

"Although we are not strong in our own skills, it does not mean that we cannot attract people to join us. ”

I muttered for a moment and then said.

"What do you mean?"

Luo Qiong asked a little puzzled.

"I mean, this time the bounty includes rewards that we can't exclude because we don't have that much appetite yet. But we can divide all the winnings and let others do us a favor. Think about it, among the people we know now, Mr. Tang will definitely not send someone to us, he sent us the task, so he will not add any more helpers to us. Mr. Xu, I don't want to go to trouble, the last time the incident was settled for us, and saved our lives, I already owe a lot of favors to others, this time I can't ask him to help. Senior Han and Elder Yu are not people in this industry, or they will not interfere in the work of fighting for fame and fortune. The relationship between the Ling family and us is not clear now, and their family has a big business, so there is no need to cooperate with us. So, there are two best candidates in my mind, the first is beads, and the second is ...... It's Qin Qianqiu. ”

We haven't been in contact with Qin Qianqiu for a long time after returning from the Great Black Mountain, but at least this "Earth Dragon" is still reliable at the critical moment.

"Okay, I'll contact Zhuzi and Qin Qianqiu tomorrow, even if we can't make money this time, we won't be able to lose the battle. ”

My own home has been watched, and there must be a fire in my heart, and the fat man's anger is nowhere to come out.

"It's not early, let's rest. ”

I looked at the clock on the wall, it was already five o'clock, stretched and walked into the room, and looked back at the little one standing on the table. whispered: "Xiaoxiao, hard work." ”

It shook itself at me, looking like a cute little girl. I closed the door and looked at the bedside table, saying that I couldn't believe the ghost story, and I don't know if I should believe it was really for our good.

The next day, the fat man started to call at noon, and he contacted the beads in the afternoon, but unfortunately the work at hand on the beads' side was at a critical moment, and there was no way to come in a clone.

The rest of the hope fell on Qin Qianqiu, the fat man called Qin Qianqiu, and the person who didn't want to answer the phone said that Qin Qianqiu came to Shanghai and gave us a number of his eldest brother.

"Brother Qin, are you in Shanghai, I want to ask you for help...... Oh...... Okay, you say the place. ”

The fat man said with a smile.

After a while, he saw the smile on the fat man's face slightly, and after hanging up the phone, he turned around and said, "Qin Qianqiu is in Shanghai, and he asked us to meet in the afternoon." ”
