Chapter 37: The Bank of Heaven and Earth
The candle flame illuminates the limited space around it, and there is no wind here, but the candle flame occasionally flickers, casting a gloomy and heavy feeling over the already secluded place, making it difficult to breathe. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
There were three people standing in the space, and there was a little boy on the ground, fainted, and his face looked like he was about two or three years old.
One of the people standing was wearing a black robe, short in stature, with a spiral of colorful lines on his arms, his hands, feet and body hidden in the black robe, the black robe with a black hat covering his head, and the candle light was dim, so that his face could not be seen clearly.
Opposite the black-robed man was a man and a woman, looking thirty or forty years old, the man's skin was sickly white, with short hair and two figure-eight eyebrows on his small eyes. The woman's complexion is darker, with a collapsed nose, thick lips, bulb eyes, ugly facial features, and not grown in the right position, in short, very ugly.
The fair-skinned man with small eyes, the thief laughed a few times, and said to the black-robed man: "Boss, this is what we just caught, we took advantage of his mother's mobile phone and our attention was not on this child, so we quickly took him away." ”
"Your efficiency is good, this month is already the third," the black-robed man nodded slightly, and in the shadows, a hoarse voice came from his mouth, with a hint of immaturity and vicissitudes, quite a contradictory feeling, and he couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman.
"Of course, we people call it black and white, and there are not eighty children in our hands, but a hundred," said the ugly girl with a black face.
"Yes, today's young mothers are too inattentive to their children, and they always like to hold a mobile phone, either taking selfies or swiping the circle of friends, but fortunately, our business will be good." When the white-faced man said this, he paused and said, "You see if the child is in June of the Year of the Dragon, if so, it is better to settle an account and get paid, so that we will be more motivated, squatting and stepping on the point to be more motivated, you see, isn't it?" ”
The black-robed man slowly squatted down, his movements made people feel a little stiff and sluggish, and the other man and woman looked at each other, feeling very strange, but they didn't say anything.
In the expectant gaze of "black and white", the black-robed man pinched the hands and legs of the child on the ground, and after slowly getting up, he said, "One month away, it's the Year of the Dragon, but it's not June." ”
Black and White were a little disappointed, they had two children before, one was in the sixth month of the Year of the Dragon, and the other was not, and the price of the former was ten times more expensive than the latter.
"Boss, isn't your price a little higher, this place is far from the city center, we have to pay a lot of fuel back and forth, and such a child with fine skin and tender meat is sold to a remote ravine, and the price is a little higher than yours." The white-faced man touched the three or two whiskers on his mouth and said.
"Oh, you want to increase the price?" The black-robed man's voice raised slightly and asked.
Black and white are both breathless, this ghost place is gloomy, walking in here makes people tremble, although the two have been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, but they are still very afraid, because this place is too weird, this black-robed man is even stranger, I have made people twice, I haven't even seen the appearance of the black-robed person, and I don't even know whether a man is a woman.
The deep silence of the space suddenly heard a muffled sound of something falling to the ground out of nowhere, startling both black and white.
The black-robed man looked sideways at the other place, turned his head slowly, and said, "Did the two of you bring tails along the way?" ”
"No, we're old rivers and lakes, be careful, no one will follow." The black-faced ugly woman said that in fact, there was a taxi on the road that always seemed to follow them, but it seemed to be thrown off on the road, and she would not be stupid enough to say it directly. I thought that I would take this money and not deliver it to this person.
When the black-robed man heard this, he didn't say anything, just took it out from his body, took out a stack of red tickets from his black gloved palm, and slowly handed it to the two people opposite, his movements were slow, a little like a robot.
The white-faced man took the pile of red tickets, and he was overjoyed, the amount of money was not light, and it was even more than the previous payment for the children in June of the Year of the Dragon, he thought that the black-robed man had changed his mind, and the candlelight was unknown, when he saw the pile of money in his hand, his face suddenly shook and he almost fell out of his hand.
"You...... What do you mean, give us the Stygian coins! The white-faced man said, only to see that the words "China Tiandi Bank" were printed on this pile of money, and the amount was one million.
"This is your payment, this kid plus some things on the two of you, it's really worth the price," the black-robed man said seriously.
The ugly-faced woman was furious and said, "Don't pretend to be a ghost, we want real money, money that can be spent, and what else do we have, what do you mean." ”
"This is the money that can be spent, don't worry, this money will be used quickly, and what I am referring to is for the two of you...... Brains. The black-robed man suddenly chuckled sadly.
"The ...... of the grass mud horse It seems that you really want to repay the debt, right?" the white-faced man shuddered when he heard the other party's sneer, but daring to do this is no different from eating rice on the tip of a knife, and naturally it is not a good type. The black-robed man was just alone, what was there to be afraid of, he pulled out a woodpecker knife from his pocket in anger.
"I want to see what kind of face is hidden under your robe," the white-faced man lifted the black-robed man's hat with one hand, and pointed the knife in his hand at the black-robed man's neck, trying to scare him first.
However, when the black-robed man was uncovered, his face was exposed, and the eyes of the white-faced man and the black-faced ugly woman widened suddenly, and their eyes were completely split.
The next moment, two terrible cries echoed through the space, but only for a moment, and then the sound of teeth crushing at flesh and bones was heard.
……
"Hey, why am I fine, this ground is so soft," An Xiaoqi touched her head, and then touched the ground, the dark space was filled with fear, and she shouted: "Lu Chen, where are you?" ”
An Xiaoqi screamed a few times in a row, and the surrounding darkness was dark and he couldn't see people clearly, and after a while, he only felt that the ground was faintly shaking, and she was so frightened that she jumped up and down, kicking her hands and feet.
"I'm below you, you want to murder."
A voice of gritted teeth came faintly.
"Are you okay, did you fall somewhere?" An Xiaoqi was overjoyed, no wonder it didn't hurt just now, it turned out that he fell on Lu Chen, he grabbed Lu Chen below, wanting to see if he was okay.
"You, you...... Where are you going? Lu Chen shouted in panic.
"What's wrong? Did you break your hand or break your leg, hey, it's not like a hand," An Xiaoqi asked, muttering a few more times.
"It's not...... How can I tell you, forget it, it's nothing, you take it away, I'm going to get up. "Lu Chen is really helpless, this dead girl dozed off in biology class. I moved my hands, feet, and lower back, and although it was extremely sore, I felt it, and it didn't seem to hurt my bones.
