Chapter Ninety-Six: Yin and Yang Road
"Child, let go of my friend, who are you, what do you want to do?" At the same time as the piercing scream came out, the air in front of me shook, and the old man appeared in front of me out of thin air with the head I threw out.
"Old man, I just wanted to ask you if you were a bad guy, and then ask you to do me a small favor"
"Hahaha, it's been hundreds of years, you're the first living person to ask me for help, let's talk about it, maybe I can help you, in addition to taking away my customers, I might be able to consider anything else."
As he spoke, the old man had already lifted up the headless ghost that I had stepped on under my feet, and stuffed the head into his hand again, and the headless ghost took his head and withdrew back more than ten meters away, making a quacking sound at me.
I don't mind, the old man's words have already confirmed that he is a bad man, as long as he agrees to take Tony away from me, the task will be completed, "Old man, my business is a small matter for you, that is, take this friend of mine away with you"
"Your friend, just him?" the old man pointed to Tony, who was shy and silent beside me.
After nodding his head affirmatively, the old man shook his head again and again.
"Little brother, if you can take my headless customer away, I can't take your friend away."
"Old man, it's all ghosts, why can't you take that headless brother with you and not take away my friend?"
Listening to my question, the old man stared at me with an incredible look for nearly a minute before he spoke: "Big brother, I am a bad man, and it is a serious matter below, and the souls I bring down are all work arrangements, and they are all from regular channels, your friend is not full of souls, who knows what his situation is, I will take him down? That is equivalent to your smuggling? Do you understand the smuggling? Breaking the law in your case, it is also breaking the law in us!" I've lost my clients and I've been deducted from my wages at most, so I'm going to die if I want to smuggle my soul, or would you please ask another master?"
"Uncle, don't say it so seriously, you see, my friend is harmless and pitiful, so you can raise your hand to help him?" After saying that, I approached the old man and quietly stuffed a stack of banknotes under my armpit to him.
"Eh, this thing is really not easy to do, if I don't do it, I'm going to lose my job, anyway, this job is not easy to come by, if it weren't for my third uncle's second uncle's cousin........." This old man, his mouth refused vigorously, but his hands were not idle, and he found a gap where no one paid attention to the headless ghost and Tony did not pay attention to the banknotes under my armpit.
"Little brother, I really can't do anything about you, or you can find someone else!"
After saying that, the old man threw his hand at me, and walked towards the path from which he came, with the headless ghost.
Eh, you have received the old man's money, you can't help but do something? The last time you also showed me the way, before I could speak, I saw the air next to the old man and the headless ghost shook, and the old man and the headless ghost disappeared in place in an instant.
"Eh?........."
At the same time as the old man and the headless ghost disappeared, the sky gradually brightened, and seeing that the sky was bright, Tony's entire body had shrunk to the innermost position in the corner and hid.
Rub, what is this operation? robbery? Am I being robbed on my own initiative?
He spat at the place where the old man disappeared, and was about to return to the hotel with Tony, only to see that there seemed to be a small note where the old man disappeared.
I took a few steps forward and picked up the note, looked at it, turned to Tony and said, "Let's go, go back to the hotel, you're done."
After I finished speaking, a hot feeling came from my hand, and I threw away the note that said "I can't bring it, but someone is with me, it has nothing to do with me", only to see the note turn into ashes in mid-air and dissipate with the wind.
That night, Tony and I went to the hospital again, this time we didn't go to the morgue, I took Tony to the top of an inpatient building in front of the morgue, which was the tallest building in the entire hospital, and from the top of the building, I could see almost everything in the hospital.
When the bell struck twelve o'clock, the whole hospital slowly fell silent, and there were fewer and fewer people walking outside the hospital, and I tried to find the old man of yesterday among the few people, but after two hours there was still no sign of the old man.
"Brother Ye, did the old man remember the wrong time yesterday?" Tony came to my side with a crying voice.
Looking at Tony, whose body was almost transparent at this time, I really didn't know how to answer his question, today in the hotel for a day, Tony's frequent twitching and wailing, and at night it was a little better, and the twitching did not stop, but the wailing was less, but the body began to become transparent.
I also asked the know-it-all at noon, and the old man said that Tony only had 24 hours left.
Damn 24 hours, if you count the current situation, this poor Tony only has a chance tonight, if I can't send Tony to the underworld tonight, when it dawns tomorrow, he will really be in ashes.
"Damn!" I cursed quietly, then turned to Tony and shouted at him, "It's okay! The old man may just be asleep, he may be here in a moment!
Since Tony's body became virtual, even his senses have begun to have problems, and now he is like an eighty or ninety-year-old man, unable to see clearly, unable to hear, and unable to leg.
You bad old man, you'd better keep your promise, if Tony has anything long and two short today, I'll ask you, the most important thing is that you charged me 10,000 yuan!!
"Damn," I spat on the ground again.
Just as I was about to greet the old man's relatives and friends one by one, a whistle suddenly sounded in the silent hospital, accompanied by the sound of the clattering sound of the iron wheel of the medical cart that was not too bright.
I looked and saw an old man in a white coat pushing a medical cart towards the morgue, and the old man looked up in my direction from time to time.
After seeing me make an OK gesture to him, the old man lowered his head and pushed the cart towards the path of the morgue.
Half an hour later, the old man walked out of the morgue slowly, followed by a string of gray shadows, rubbing, the old man has a good business today.
The old man glanced up at the roof of the building where I was, and after making sure that I was looking at him, he continued to walk slowly towards the dilapidated old building, and before coming to the old building, the old man did not stop and walked straight to a public toilet next to the old building.
After the old man stood still in a vacant lot behind the public toilet next to the old building, he gestured with his hand inside, only to see a string of gray shadows following behind him and walked into the public toilet, seeing that all the figures walked in, the old man raised his eyes and looked at me again, after getting my sure gesture, the old man looked around, and made sure that no one was paying attention to him, and then flashed into the corner of the public toilet and disappeared.
After more than ten minutes, seeing that the old man did not come out again, I picked up Tony and ran towards the dilapidated public toilet as fast as I could.
Tony, a ghost, weighed little, and in a few minutes I had come to the point where the old man had disappeared, and I looked around through the dim streetlight to make sure that no one noticed me, and then I dodged into a narrow gap between the public toilet and the fence.
As soon as I got into the crevice, a foul smell hit the world, and I saw that in this narrow gap was the high wall of the hospital on the left, and on the right was the dilapidated public toilet, and there was no other way out, only a dark hole in the ground, and the overwhelming stench was wafting from this hole.
If you look closer, what kind of way out is this? Isn't this the septic tank manhole cover of the hospital?
Just as I began to look around to see if I had missed any important clues, a green light flashed on the ground next to the mouth of the septic tank manhole cover, and I saw a huge green "jump" word flash more than ten times before disappearing in place.
I rub
Old man, are you playing cards according to common sense? What is this? Septic tank? Is it really yours, didn't you arrange this yin and yang road there? Could it be that this old guy did it on purpose?
A foul smell hit, I let out a retch, Tony on my back raised his head weakly, and asked softly, "Brother Ye, are you here?"
Looking back, Tony, who was becoming more and more transparent, gritted my teeth, squeezed out a national curse from between my teeth, and jumped into the dark hole.
Do you know how to swim? Have you swam in a septic tank full of filth? Anyway, I swam today, and the moment I fell into the pool, a huge suction force sucked me and kept falling, but when I got to the bottom of the pool, I stopped at the bottom of the pool, and the strong suction was still there, but I stopped at the bottom of the pool, and I didn't continue down.
In the turbid filth, I couldn't open my eyes to confirm the nearby environment, I could only use my feet and hands to keep touching the position of the suction, what made me sweat was that this powerful suction force came out of thin air, in other words, a few days ago I only needed a little force to open a big hole in the hard cement floor, but now I don't want to make a hole in the ground, under the effect of suction, now even if I want to float up it has become a luxury.
The most terrible thing is Tony behind me, I don't know if it's nervous or what's wrong, he actually strangled my neck tightly, a strong feeling of suffocation came, no, I couldn't help it, I couldn't help it, it seems that this Tony didn't save it, but wanted to put himself in. Tomorrow morning's headlines in the city will surely be "Ignorant man drowned in a manure pit."
"Wow... I couldn't help it, and the moment I opened my mouth, I didn't want to describe how I felt at that time.
At the same time that the filth rushed straight to his mouth and nose, the voice of his long-lost aunt and grandmother came from his heart, "Eh, what a stupid child"
At the moment when my aunt's voice came, the concrete floor under my feet that was blocking my continued fall suddenly disappeared, and Tony and I fell screaming.
With a bang, Tony and I stood on a small road, and before I could see the surrounding situation, I had already run to the side of the road and vomited.
My aunt's voice sounded in my heart: "Big nephew, next time you want to go there, please find out if you can go first! This is the underworld, not everyone can come!"
"Hello, you can't vomit anywhere here!" a voice sounded without any emotion.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, let's go here and go" Before I could see the faces of the visitor, Tony had already pulled me and ran far away, of course, my vomiting still didn't stop.
More than twenty minutes later, the last retching sound came out, and I was almost vomiting my stomach, and there was really nothing left to vomit, so I gradually stopped. Looking around, it turned out to be a quiet forest path, and people with gray figures walked down the path one after another, disappearing into a forest.
I turned my head to Tony and asked, stunned, "Arrived?"
Tony nodded excitedly at me, repeating that it's here, it's finally here.
Looking at Tony's mental state, we should have arrived in the underworld, but what should we do next?Ask Tony, this guy looked at me blankly, and muttered "Brother Ye, I don't even know how I died"
Okay, sending Buddha to the west, I wiped my mouth, retched again, got up and walked towards the path with Tony.
