Chapter 234: Repaying the Favor
It has been a week since the senior brother and the others left, and within a week I learned through the news that the mudslide at the location of the mouth has stopped, and the relevant departments have cleaned up the sand and gravel there three days ago, and now all the mouth has been evacuated.
And a group of us followed the arrangement of the senior brother and kept acting in pairs at any time.
December 22, 2015, today is my brother's birthday, but he still hasn't come back, so I can only continue to wait.
But I don't know why, I've been restless these days, I'm not in a state to do anything, and my eyelids have been beating, as if something big is about to happen around me.
On December 25, 2015, I couldn't sit still anymore, I had been suffering from insomnia for the past few days, since my brother left, I would come to a strange place every night after closing my eyes, this place was full of negative emotions, and there were countless roars of ghosts from all around, waking me up again and again.
Because I haven't rested well for a long time, I have obvious dark circles on my face, and Xiao Jiuwei also took a long vacation from her company because of this special period, and accompanied me in the snack bar every day.
No way!
I eventually broke out and grabbed my phone from the table! I'm going to call my brother! How many days has it been? Why hasn't I heard from my brother at all!
However, when I dialed my brother's number, all I heard was the cold woman's voice on the phone, telling me that my brother's phone had been turned off and that I would like to call him later.
I'll be your uncle later! I'll call your second uncle!
In anger, I threw my hand out hard, watching the phone fall to the ground and become shattered, I suddenly turned my head to the little nine-tails on the side and raised my clipboard: "Don't wait!" I'm going to check it out today! What the hell is he doing, senior brother! ”
Because of my long-term insomnia, my eyes are extremely dry, so after my brother left, I never wore contact lenses again, at this time, my blood-red eyeballs were congested with anger, and it looked as if the whole eye socket was red, which was extremely oozing!
Seeing that my face was flushed with excitement, Little Nine-Tails weakly persuaded me: "But Brother Yuanyuan has instructed us not to act alone during this time. ”
"It's fine!" I grabbed Little Ninetail's shoulder: "You and I together, we won't be alone!" ”
"Huh?" Little Nine-Tails didn't expect me to say this, she first shook her head for a moment, and then said to me cautiously, "Just the two of us?" Yuanhua, I know you don't use Taoism anymore, and that evil mouth is a place where unjust ghosts gather, wouldn't it be too dangerous to go with just the two of us? Why don't we wait, it's almost time now, and we can call Master Shakti and them tomorrow, okay?" ”
As soon as the little nine-tails finished speaking, I suddenly heard the jingling sound of the wall clock in the living room, and it was already one o'clock in the morning.
But when I think of my brother's life and death now, where can I still sit?
I grabbed Little Nine-Tails' wrist, pulled her and ran out.
"There's no time! If it goes well, we will be able to meet Senior Brother and them tomorrow morning, and when the time comes, as soon as the few of us meet, I will have time to call them again! ”
Grabbing the little nine-tails, I rushed to the middle of the road, stopped a taxi that was running the night shift, and told him the address of the brake, and the taxi drove quickly towards the brake.
Seeing that the trees outside the window were receding little by little, I was very anxious, and I wished that I would grow a few more pairs of wings on my body, and rush to my brother's side in an instant to ask him what had happened in the past few days.
As the minutes ticked by, we had already left the city, and it was dark all around, except for the lights in the car and the headlights outside, and it was dark outside the window.
"Shhh "Jump!"
Just as I was looking out the window and wandering in the dark night, suddenly the taxi made a sharp brake sound, accompanied by a violent impact, and I crashed into the front seat!
My eyes lost sight in an instant under the violent impact, and when I recovered, I suddenly found the driver in the front seat staring at the front of the car tremblingly.
I raised my head and rubbed my eyes, and was about to ask the driver what happened, when suddenly the driver slapped his thigh: "It's over!" Hit someone! ”
As soon as I heard the driver's words, I hurriedly got out of the car and walked with him to the car, only to find that a homeless man was lying motionless in front of the car, and bright red blood was oozing out little by little around him!
I hurriedly ran forward, stretched out my hand and tried it on the homeless man's nose, but there was no breath at all!
Then I reached out and grabbed the homeless man's wrist, and there was no pulse at all! And through these eyes of mine, I can't even see the slightest popularity in this homeless man!
Seeing this homeless man, he was hit by a car and killed on the spot!
At this time, the driver next to me shook his head when he saw me, his face instantly became extremely pale, and he repeated over and over again that he didn't care about me, it was he who suddenly rushed out of the side of the road, and his tone became weaker and weaker.
At this time, Xiao Jiuwei also stepped out of the car, and when she saw a person lying in front of me, she instantly understood what was going on!
There was silence all around, except for the mechanical murmur of the driver, and all I could hear was the night wind blowing.
Since there was already a human life in front of me, my first reaction was to take out my mobile phone to call the police, but when I reached out to touch the mobile phone, I suddenly remembered that the mobile phone had just been smashed by myself.
I turned my head to look at Little Ninetail, she seemed to understand what I meant, but when she pulled out her phone, she shook her head and told me that there was no signal here.
There's no way, it won't help to continue to stay like this, seeing the driver on the side has long been scared, I can only ask Xiao Jiuwei to drive the driver to the nearest police station to report the case, while I stay here and watch the body of the homeless.
After seeing the method I wrote, Little Nine-Tails obviously hesitated, but when she saw my red eyes, she made up her mind, told me to pay attention to safety, and pulled the dejected taxi driver out of here.
After the little nine-tails left, I smiled bitterly, just before leaving, she told me to be careful about everything around me, I know what she is talking about, in the middle of the night, and in this kind of wilderness, maybe a fierce ghost will appear.
I know she's worried that I won't be able to handle this situation, but she doesn't forget that although I don't use the Tao anymore, I usually visit those antique cities and collect some messy gadgets, including a lot of evil weapons.
Because of this, Little Nine-Tails is relieved that I am left here alone.
After the little nine-tails left, the surroundings fell into darkness again, fortunately my eyes have night vision, otherwise I would really have to blacken my eyes.
I took out a cigarette and lit it, crouched next to the homeless man's corpse, and began to wait boredly for the little nine-tails to return.
As the minutes ticked by, I don't know how long it was, but I was already half a pack of cigarettes anyway.
Just as I was about to get up and move my body, I suddenly felt a strong yin qi surging behind me!
Damn it! It's not going to happen, is it?
I took out the small magic weapon I had found from my arms, and was about to turn around to face this terrible ghost, when suddenly I felt a chill in my chest, as if something sharp had pierced my chest!
I threw the magic weapon behind me, and at the same time I slammed forward, and the whole person fell to the ground on the cold ground.
At this time, I found out that the homeless man actually got up the corpse!
At this time, it was holding its deformed arm with all its strength, and it was holding a sharp dagger in its other hand! Looks like the thing that pierced me just now was the dagger in its hand!
Because he was hit by my magic weapon, the homeless man's whole body was shaking violently, and I was desperately pressing the wound with both hands because of the chest injury, and I had lost the ability to resist!
It can't go on like this! If I can't get up from the ground and escape before the homeless recovers, then the only way that awaits me is death!
But because of the excessive blood loss, my brain began to be groggy, and my limbs began to disobey my own calls, so I could only gasp for breath, praying in my heart that Little Nine-Tails would arrive in time.
Unfortunately, there is no such ingenious thing in the world, and when the homeless man recovered, I did not see any cars coming.
It's over.
Watching the corpse in front of me approach me little by little, I felt completely hopeless.
But at this moment, I suddenly heard a sound of grace, and then I saw a figure rushing towards me quickly, and at the last moment, I threw the homeless man in front of me to the ground!
Looking at the man and ghost twisted in front of me, I realized that it was the little beggar I met in the hotel who saved me!
At this time, his face was flushed, completely ignoring the fact that he had been pierced by the homeless man, and just urged me vigorously: "Engong! Run! I can't stop it for long! ”
I didn't have time to think much about why the little beggar was in front of me, because my brain was getting heavier and weaker, and the roar of the little beggar was getting farther and farther away.
In the moment before I fell unconscious, all I remember was that the little beggar was holding the homeless man deadly, and his only left hand was desperately clasping the homeless man's body to prevent it from attacking me again.
"Let's go! Hurry up! ”
My last memory is fixed on the moment when the little beggar screamed at me with a bloody face, and I can only hear his last faint but extremely high voice.
"If we don't leave, neither of us will be able to leave! It was you who gave me dignity back then, and today I, Xu Yu, am going to use my life to report your kindness! I know that you are Taoist Duangong, if I have the opportunity, I must be your apprentice in the next life! ”
