Chapter 233: The Mysterious Visitor in a Quiet Day (1)
Since I opened this pawnshop that exchanged my soul for a promise to me, most of the people who came to me were to realize their heart's most desired wishes, they exchanged their precious soul for love, family, wealth, and status, but there are people who are not trying to make themselves better, but just to harm others, or to harm their closest and most familiar people, as if to make others unlucky, they can balance their hearts and have happiness, this pair of girlfriends is really wonderful, I think I should be limited to my guests in the future.
Fortunately, since the pair of girlfriends left, the weather became colder, after one heavy snowfall, this small antique city located in the corner was also covered by heavy snow, the roads outside the city were frozen, and it was becoming more and more difficult for people outside to come in.
In the afternoon of this day, after Ah Ji and I finished eating, we lit a brazier, nested in the house to play cards, looked out of the house, only to see that the heavy snow covered everything, and the branches outside the window were also hung with thick snow, overwhelmed and bent over, occasionally one or two birds flew by, probably a lonely goose from the flock, rushed to follow the companions to the south for the winter, the people in this antique city did not go out, they all closed the door and nested at home to make a fire, the north outside the window whistling rushing by, bringing up a large piece of snow powder, I got up later and later every day, and I felt that it was getting colder and colder every day, but fortunately it was still warm in the house, so I gave up cursing the hellish weather with the people in the city every day.
When Ah Ji was alive, she was a lady who was weak in literature and loved ancient literature, but I don't know why there was a strong enthusiasm for gambling, and she was dragged to fight 300 times a day with me. And her skills are not bad, for me as a rookie, I can only admit defeat. After losing again, I finally gave up hope of a comeback, I threw down the cards, and then leaned on the big chair and covered my face and howled: "Don't play, don't play, lose every time, it's really boring." ”
Ah Ji also seemed to realize that every time she won me, she seemed to be embarrassed to beat me to the ground, she gritted her teeth, made a ruthless heart, and assured me: "Boss, you play with me, from this point on, I didn't let you have three cards, okay?" ”
I wailed, rolled to the chair, and firmly refused: "No, I don't want to play anymore, you play by yourself, don't harass me anymore." ”
Her eyes flickered a few times, and then she pounced directly on me, pressed on top of me, and yelled at my ear: "No, you have to play with me, I'm too bored." ”
Ah Ji is a ghost, or a drowned water ghost, the whole body is wet and cold lying on top of me, I feel that my whole body is going to freeze into a popsicle, I used my strength to push her, then suddenly I heard someone let out a chuckle.
The voice was very soft, but it was clear, and it was a man's voice, definitely not Ah Ji. It was like coming from my ears, and I was stunned, and just as I was about to get up to see what was going on, I heard another voice, this time more clearly, and I heard a man's voice with a smile: "The boss lady is really interested." ”
My brain exploded all of a sudden, who was this silently approaching my side, and I didn't even notice it, I directly pushed Ah Ji off my body.
Ah Ji sat on the ground with my buttocks, and while rubbing her sore buttocks, she complained to me: "Boss, you really don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade." ”
I glared at her, "You long-dead water ghost, don't pretend to be a little girl anymore." ”
The person who made the voice was standing in my room at this time, dressed in a black robe, quiet, gentlemanly standing in the room waiting for me to teach Ah Ji a lesson. It doesn't seem to be at all in line with this room, and he stands here so freely and negotiably, and he doesn't know that he thinks it's my invited guest.
I hid Ah Ji behind me, and looked coldly at this "man" wearing a black robe, in fact, his robe wrapped him from head to foot, not even a single hair was exposed, it was really difficult to distinguish whether he was a man or a woman, but at the voice he just made, and the obviously tall body under the black robe, this person should be a man. But what did he break into my house for?
I don't like to beat around the bush, let alone with a person who doesn't even show his face, he is in the open, I am in the dark, I asked him directly and seriously: "Who are you?" Why did you break into my house? He stood motionless and said to me, "You don't care who I am, you just need to know what I'm here for." ”
I was so enraged by his calm and self-righteous attitude that I wanted to rush over to him directly, but after thinking about it, I began to ask him again, "Then what is your purpose?" Who told you to come? ”
He approached me and said to me, "My purpose is to take you away, we need you to do me a favor, it doesn't matter who sent me, and you don't need to know." ”
I looked at this black-robed man and continued to maintain a brazen attitude, not angry but laughing, I said to him: "If you want to take me away like this, it depends on whether you have the ability to do it." ”
As I spoke, I was about to do it directly, but this person didn't even dodge the moment I touched him, and my punch only touched the black robe that person was wearing. The moment he hit him with my fist, he was gone! I looked at the black robe that fell to the ground with a blank face, thinking to myself, this black-robed man should not be a ghost, but I didn't feel the slightest breath of him, I couldn't tell whether he was a ghost or a demon, or some other monster, I sighed silently in my heart: If only it were a ghost, I could use the magic taught to me by the master to accept him, but if not, it would be troublesome.
I frowned tightly and pondered, the man in black said that he was going to take me away, where to go, was he going to take me out? How can I help him? I really couldn't think of it when I wanted to break my head, and I was about to catch him and beat him up just now, but he actually dropped this headless word and ran away, what a bastard.
Ah Ji saw me holding the black robe that the man in black had fallen, standing in place with a stunned expression, she came over and waved her pale palm in front of my eyes: "Boss, what's wrong with you?" It can't be stupid, right? ”
I looked at her worried expression and immediately came back to my senses, and I took her hand. He asked like a cannon, "Ah Ji, have you seen how the black-robed man came in?" Did you see how he went? See him do it? Ah Ji, think about it carefully, do you see who he is? ”
Ah Ji was at a loss when I asked. Stunned, he shook his head again and again: "I don't know, but that black-robed man is so strange, he disappeared in a flash, and I didn't even have time to watch his movements, it's really fast and terrifying." ”
After listening to Ah Ji's words, I also knew that what had just happened was definitely not an illusion, I stood in place with a worried face, thinking that my carefree days were about to be broken, the enemy was too strong, the point was that the origin was unknown, I didn't even have a breakthrough, I really didn't know what to do.
Ah Ji looked at my expression, and knew that the enemy this time was not simple, and I was not sure that I could defeat him, she also quieted down, and looked at me with a worried face: "Boss, I believe in your strength, don't worry, I will always be by your side." ”
I poked her head and said to her with a smile: "Don't worry, the soldiers will block it, the water will cover it, I will definitely drive the bad guys out, no one can force me to do something I don't want to do, no matter who he is, he wants to let me out without my consent, don't even think about it." ”
Although I made such a promise to Ah Ji, but in the face of a powerful unknown enemy, I still can't remain calm, I know that my peaceful days have come to an end, I stay in this room with Ah Ji, and I no longer have the mood to enjoy the snow and play cards leisurely, when will the enemy act.
That day, the enemy finally moved, the weather was still so cold, I relied on the quilt to enjoy the warm breath, I really didn't want to get up, just when I was sleeping in a daze, Ah Ji rushed into my room with a gust of cold wind, I was frozen by the cold air to my ears, put my head into the quilt, turned over, ready to continue sleeping, but Ah Ji panted and pushed me, calling: "Boss, no, something happened?" "What can it be?" The worst thing is that the black-robed man has come to declare war again. I said in a daze.
Ah Ji listened to my words and said in surprise: "It's really the black-robed man who came to declare war, boss lady, you guessed it right." "No, it won't." Listening to her words, I was excited, and immediately got out of the warm bed, Ah Ji saw that I finally woke up, handed me a piece of paper, I took the paper, and saw a few big words written on this paper: "Give you three days, and be ready to agree to our conditions, otherwise you will bear the consequences." I looked at the paper and frowned.
Ah Ji may have been stimulated by the man in black, or she may have been trapped in this heavy snow and was too a scoundrel, yelling at my face with excitement, as if what she brought me was not a threatening letter, but a great news.
I looked speechless at Ah Ji jumping up and down to tell me what had just happened: "Boss, aren't you sleeping today, I didn't wake you up, but I'm too bored, so I fell into the yard to play, you say it's strange, the courtyard door is obviously closed very tightly, I didn't see anything in the last second, and the next second I saw the black-robed man standing in front of me, it's really strange, there is no sound and no breath, it's like air, I can't feel any breath, he stood in front of me and handed me this letter, Then he disappeared directly, leaving behind a black robe, strange, why did he leave his clothes every time he left, he wouldn't be an exhibitionist, right? ”
I watched Ah Ji still talking, and only one sentence echoed in my ears.
"It's like air."
