Chapter 56: Bullets
In the quiet house, I haven't slept for nearly a day and a half, but I still can't sleep.
Smoke burned on the table, and the wisps of green smoke wafted up to fill the room with a slightly pungent smell.
The word demon kept surrounding my mind, and my thoughts seemed to be bound by a huge rope.
Hearing the beating of my heart, the sound of dull breathing, these chaotic sounds made me feel uncomfortable, as if life was being distorted, and the black shadow that closed my eyes drifted by from time to time. Even though I myself have been slashed by a thousand swords, my brother cannot be fine. For me, the word righteousness is far more important than my own life.
The clock in the living room outside struck three times, and at three o'clock in the morning, I closed my eyes, tired and finally rolled and fell asleep. Sinking into the realm of dreams, the perception becomes weaker and weaker, and finally falls into a deep sleep.
I'm afraid that the next day will come, what should I do if I wake up and still haven't found a way to save Luo Qiong?
What really scares people is not the great trials that have overtaken us, but the fact that we don't know the solution to those tests.
However, still fell asleep. I slept very deeply, until I was woken up the next day by the sound of traffic outside the window. The curtains were opened, the sun shone in through the screens, the sky was low, and the white clouds drifted by. Take a deep breath, what should be faced still has to be faced, and what should come must be solved.
The door behind me was suddenly opened, and the fat man walked in smoking a cigarette, and when he saw that I was awake, he said, "The beads are here, and I have something to say to you." ”
I was slightly stunned, he refused to help us in the guest house yesterday, why did he come to us today? Could it be that he has changed his mind?
When I walked out of the room, I saw Zhu Zi sitting in the room smoking a cigarette with a large duffel bag on his back. When he saw me, he said, "I'm on the train at noon, so I'll come over and talk to you after thinking about it." ”
I couldn't help but be a little disappointed in my heart, he still wanted to go, but his face didn't show it, nodded and sat opposite him.
"I really can't help you this time, but what you said yesterday was right, if it was my brothers who were lying in Senior Han's house today, maybe I would have tried my best to catch that monster. I admire both of you from this, so I can tell you a few things and things that I have collected over the years. As he spoke, he pulled out a small bag from his pocket and placed it on the table. Looking at the bulging bag, it seems that there are a lot of things in it.
"What's in there?"
The fat man asked curiously.
I opened the package, there were three things inside, the first thing that caught my eye was a few Motanjiao magic weapons, that is, coins that can be used to clear yin qi, this object is expensive, and the effect is also very good, I was very greedy before, I wanted to get a few when I had money. Next to these coins was a small box, like the kind of cardboard box used to put chalk, and it was not marked, so it was impossible to see what was inside. The third was a short sword with a short forearm, with a wooden hilt, a scabbard that looked like copper, and a coiled dragon pattern, with several red leather straps tied to the top of the hilt.
"These Motanjiao coins are all new, and the demon yin qi you are dealing with is very heavy, I suggest that you keep these coins in your mouth when you fight them. At least it can resist some of the yin qi, which will help you a lot. As for this box......"
The beads opened the white box, and the contents inside surprised me and the fat man!
It was full of shotgun bullets, all of which were large-caliber cylindrical red bullets. I clicked and there were about fifty rounds!
"Where did you get this?"
The fat man asked in surprise.
"Leave it alone to you, and I won't tell you. But if you use it, there will be no trouble for you afterwards. Whether it is a demon or an earth beast, as long as it is flesh and blood, it is afraid of guns. The shotgun you got will finally come in handy now. ”
I know that there are many channels outside the beads, but I didn't expect him to be able to get this kind of forbidden item.
Then he picked up the third thing, the dagger, and placed it in front of me. The look is cautious, and there seems to be a pattern engraved on the wooden hilt, which gives me the overall feeling of being very old but very well maintained. Clearly, this object was the beloved of its former owner.
"This is the saber of the Tushan warriors, also known as the Tushan knife, and the manufacturing process is now lost. All the Tushan knives that have survived so far are old objects, and they have been around for at least a hundred years. Zhuzi smoked a cigarette and pointed to the short knife in my hand and said, "This short knife has been on me for more than two years, and I didn't think it would be given away today, but this Tushan knife is cut by the blood of the old witch, and it has a strong lethal power against evil things." It was the one that made it possible for me to escape from the tomb where the corpse was crashed. Maybe this short knife can save your life, I will give it to you today, you must protect it well. It's a relic of a good brother of mine......"
The beads gave me the beloved thing, and this affection surprised me and the fat man. Even the anger that had been saved up because he was unwilling to help us dissipated.
"You'd better write down what I'm going to say next. When my big brother had an accident in the sea, I was lucky enough to get back to shore and decided to take revenge. At that time, I knew in my heart that with my ability, facing that demon would be death. Over the years, I have never given up the idea of revenge, silently collecting information about such things as demons. But the more you know, the more desperate you become. That's why I'm going to withdraw and I'm going to advise you not to die. Of the countless sources I have consulted, most of them are false, but there are only three things that I can be sure of are absolutely true, and they must be kept in mind. First, demons can be killed. Second, all the demons are in the Five Elements. Third, there are only two places where the demon is most vulnerable, one is the heart, and the other is the Dan. That's all I know......"
The bead snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, and the words seemed to stop dumbly, and the fat man and I looked at each other, still knowing too little, but obviously the bead only knew so much.
"I'm almost on my way to catch the train. He stood up, bowed, bowed to the two of us, and said solemnly and solemnly, "If you can really kill demons this time, it will be a success, and he will definitely be able to make a name for himself in the Tao one day." If we don't die this time, then we'll see you in Xiangjiang City. ”
Like a chivalrous parting, the bead turned to leave, and the fat man and I looked at what he left behind, but within ten minutes of the bead's departure, another guest came.
Brother Jun drove his little Alto to stop in front of the fat man's house, and when he entered the house, he said, "Your brother's accident has something to do with me, so I'm here to help." ”
"Brother Jun, if you come to the troubled waters this time, you may die. ”
The fat man is not shy about speaking out.
"Haha, what are you afraid of! I'm afraid of being a soft egg, so I brought something. The two thickened coats processed by the trustee are filled with steel plates under the face, which is a bit heavy, but even if the knife cuts it, it can't die. And three sapper hats, and a set of wire ropes, which I think you should all use. ”
We were talking, but the old man stood behind us at some point. By the time we turned around to find him, the old man had already seen the bullet box on the table.
"You're going to war?"
The old man asked.
The fat man's face tightened, he never explained this matter to the old man, but the old man knew it very well without us saying it.
"Grandpa, let's ......"
The fat man wanted to explain, but when the words came to his mouth, he saw the old man waving his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Don't think that you can win the battle with a few bullets, without a tactical plan and a strategic policy, you will die on the battlefield." Come in, old man, I'll help you with your staff. ”
Here I want to make a special mention of the old man's room, Brother Jun is the first time to enter the old man's room, and his eyes are instantly glaring after he walks in. The old man's house was hung with several of his old military uniforms, which were covered with various medals. There are several pieces with bullet holes in them.
And on the shelves were three Japanese commanders' sabers, and in the cupboard were two green Japanese military coats. These are all the trophies of the old man, and there are even photos taken by several bigwigs and the old man in the window, of course, these are all left after the liberation.
"I've been fighting for decades, and I've never seen a stunned young man rushing up with a gun to win, and if you want to win a battle, you have to rely on your brain!"
The old man sat down as he spoke. “
