Chapter 135: The Road Blocker
"With my hard work, I was not only admitted to a prestigious university, but also won a first-class scholarship every year, plus the money I spent on work-study in my spare time, I was much richer than the average student at that time." Bai Lin said proudly.
"Awesome!" Thunder Blade gave Bai Lin a thumbs up, such a self-improvement woman deserves his encouragement.
Bai Lin's words changed, his expression suddenly darkened, and he said in a low voice: "I don't ask my family for a penny every month, and I will send money back to my family from time to time, but what I didn't expect is that my family has not become rich because of these, but ......" Speaking of this, Bai Lin's voice couldn't help but choke a little.
"If you don't want to say it, then don't say it, I won't force you." Thunderblade said softly.
"It's okay! It's been a long time coming, and it's better to say it. Bai Lin stretched out her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said strongly, "While I kept sending money out, my family's economic situation also improved little by little, but what I didn't expect was that my dad didn't do anything serious after he had money, but used the money to gamble." In the beginning, he didn't gamble much, and he would win some from time to time, so he was more interested in gambling. Over time, he gambled more and more, from five or ten yuan at the beginning, to one hundred and two hundred yuan later...... As a result, after more than a year, he not only lost the money I sent him, but also lost the house in his hometown. Now in order to avoid debts, he is hiding in Tibet and living a life that is not human. ”
At this time, Bai Lin was already in tears, and her choked voice was full of sorrow, a woman was so miserable that she could do those things, and Lei Jian could understand.
"Alright, wipe your tears! The nightmare will soon be over, and what you should be thinking about now is how to get your dad to quit gambling. Otherwise, even if I help you this time, he will fall into someone else's trap again. Thunderblade said calmly.
Bai Lin nodded lightly, what Lei Blade said was the truth, but when she thought of her father's deep-rooted gambling addiction, she had a big head and had no choice, completely with the resourceful female assistant in the mall.
Seeing Bai Lin's painful appearance, Lei Jian couldn't bear to force this poor woman again, and said softly: "Forget it! We'll go and get your business done first. When the time comes, if it really doesn't work, you can get your dad to Rongcheng and use a different environment to quit gambling. ”
"Hmm!" Bai Lin nodded, no matter whether this method was feasible or not, she was very grateful to Thunder Blade for what he had done for her.
"Now there is still half an hour before the ghost capital, I see that your face is haggard, most of you didn't sleep well last night, you should squint for a while! I'll wake you up when you get to the city. Thunderblade said.
Bai Lin really didn't sleep well last night thinking about today's things, and coupled with the torment of her soul in the past few days, she was really a little sleepy. Bai Lin nodded slightly, leaned back in her seat, and slowly closed her eyes.
Perhaps it was the sense of security that Lei Blade carried on her body that made her feel safe that she had never felt before, Bai Lin actually fell asleep gradually, and the corners of her mouth slowly snored slightly.
"This woman is really tired." Lei Jian glanced at Bai Lin, who was sleeping next to him, shook his head helplessly, and continued to drive in the direction of the ghost capital.
……
"Bang!"
Bai Lin had just slept peacefully, but the car suddenly stopped, and under the action of inertia, his whole body instantly crashed forward. Fortunately, when she got into the car, Thunderblade reminded her to wear a seat belt, otherwise her head would have to hit the windshield.
"Thunderblade, what's wrong?" Bai Lin saw Thunder Blade looking ahead with an unkind expression, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"We've got in the way." Thunderblade snorted coldly.
On some main roads, some people deliberately sprinkle pushpins on the ground to puncture your tires in order to ask for money, and then force you to go to their auto repair shop to get low-quality tires, and they earn a huge difference in the middle price.
Undoubtedly, Thunderblade is in this situation right now.
Fortunately, Thunderblade found it early and stepped on the brakes before it hit the pushpin, but even so, those roadblocks were not ready to let go of the big fish. Before Thunderblade got out of the car, a shirtless man walked over to this side.
When Bai Lin saw the tattoos on his body, he knew that they were not good people. After all, most people still don't get messy tattoos on their bodies.
"What do we do now?" Bai Lin asked worriedly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Thunderblade reassured.
Somehow, hearing Thunder Blade's words, Bai Lin's panicked heart miraculously calmed down and gave him a trusting look.
"Boss, the car broke down?" The man asked with a smile on his face towards Thunder Blade.
"The tire is punctured by nails, can it be repaired?" Thunderblade sneered.
"Yes, of course!" The man turned around and shouted inside, "Dog leftovers, big flowers, it's time to start!" ”
Two flat-headed young men ran out of it with tools, first circled around the car, and then without looking, they began to move, and unusually quickly removed two of the tires, and then one of them carried one and ran towards the shop.
"Boss, go in and take a break, there is air conditioning inside, and ice water, which is provided for free." The man took the initiative to open the car door for Lei Blade, and said with a smile on his face.
Thunder Blade turned his head to look at Bai Lin next to him and gave her a look.
"Then take a break!" Bai Lin opened the car door and got out of the car, and walked in after Thunder Blade.
Lei Jian and Bai Lin walked behind, and the man led them in front.
"Thunderblade, why do I think there's something wrong here?" Bai Lin took advantage of the man's inattention and whispered to the Thunder Blade.
"It's okay, let's go get a glass of water first." Thunder Blade shook his head, signaling that there was himself here, and Bai Lin didn't have to be nervous.
The two followed the man into the bungalow and came to a room inside, as he said just now, the air conditioner was really turned on, and there was a refrigerator in the corner.
"Boss, Miss, sit down for a while!" The man greeted the two warmly, and also took a bottle of frozen mineral water from the refrigerator to each person, which made Bai Lin can't help but have an illusion, and secretly sigh that the service in this place is really good, could it be that he made a mistake?
"How long will it take to make it up?" Bai Lin couldn't help but ask.
"Half an hour." The man replied, "Not ......."
"But what?" Bai Lin asked with a frown.
"Miss, please give me the money for this tire repair." The man was still smiling, but staring at the trace of greed that flashed in Bai Lin's eyes, he did not escape the gaze of the thunder blade.
Bai Lin was a little at a loss, and said dissatisfiedly: "People give money after repairing the car, your rules here don't seem to be the same?" ”
"Miss, you don't know, originally, I also wanted to wait for the car to be repaired before asking for money, but my gang of little ones are really disobedient, they don't want to do things without receiving money, it was enough to make up a tire for half an hour, but they can drag it out for half a day." The man explained with a grin, but there was a threat in his words, "I don't think you want to wait so long, for your sake, I have to collect the money first." ”
"Why are you like this?" Bai Lin was a little annoyed, wasn't this an obvious threat to herself.
"How much?" Thunder Blade waved his hand at Bai Lin and asked lightly.
The man held out a finger towards the Thunder Blade.
"A hundred?" Bai Lin's brows tightened, she used to pay more than twenty or thirty yuan for repairing tires, which was obviously blackmailing them.
"Miss, you misunderstood, it's not a hundred." The man shook his head and said.
"Ten pieces? Impossible, right? Bai Lin felt that this price was too cheap, and asked in disbelief.
"Miss, it's a thousand." The man slandered in his heart, this woman is really big-chested, and ten yuan is not enough to buy these bottles of mineral water!
"What? Thousand? Rao is Bai Lin paid attention to her image, and at this time, she was also angry with the man's words, glared at the man angrily, and asked, "Why don't you go to rob?" ”
"Miss, robbery is illegal, we don't do anything illegal." The man's face was calm, and he didn't feel strange at all about Bai Lin's reaction. After all, it wasn't the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Thunder Blade interrupted the two of them at this time, and asked lightly at the man, "Is a thousand yuan enough?" I've got a punctured tire. ”
Hearing Lei Blade's words, the man was obviously stunned, and said in his heart that this man is even more stupid than that woman, Lao Tzu has so many more, and it is the first time he has seen such a fool, so he immediately shook his head and said, "Of course it's not enough, boss." One tire is 1,000 yuan, and two tires should be 2,000. Although I don't read much, I am stupid enough to count one plus one and so on. ”
Bai Lin listened to the man's words, and couldn't wait to give that mouth a slap immediately. However, before she could make a move, she saw a cold light flash in front of her eyes, followed by a crisp sound.
Not only did Bai Lin not react, but even the man who was slapped was stunned.
I've seen it ruthless, I've never seen it so bad, I don't have any preparations, he says it's a shot, and he doesn't even let go of a cruel word, it's really fucking amazing!
The man reacted from the shock, touched the place where he was fanned, it hurt so hotly, he didn't need to look at it, and he knew that it was swollen.
"Boy, do you know what you just did?" The man said coldly.
Thunderblade smiled disapprehantly, "I just taught a lesson to the mad dog who didn't have long eyes." ”
"You're looking for death!" A cold light flashed in the man's eyes, and he snorted coldly, "I'm going to let you leave something today, and I won't mess around in the rivers and lakes in the future." ”
Thunder Blade said indifferently: "Jianghu? Do you think a scumbag like you deserves these two words? ”
"Grass mud horse, don't pretend to force Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will beat you so that your parents don't know each other later, and you will know whether Lao Tzu is worthy or not." With a wave of his bald hand, he yelled at the door, "Dog, big flower, there are people who don't follow the rules, you call some people to teach them a lesson and teach them the rules." ”
