Qiang Shun had just had breakfast at this time, and deliberately waited for us in the lobby of the hotel, and the three of us went to the hall to meet him, and he led us to the backyard to find their boss.

Their boss is still in a white shirt and a suit today, and he looks very neat, but at this time, everyone else is wearing short-sleeved clothes, and he looks nondescript in a suit, and he is not too hot to panic.

Chen Hui talked to the middle-aged man in the suit for a few words, meaning that he wanted to see the sable, and then bought it, the middle-aged man in the suit didn't say anything after listening, looked at us a few times, and led us into the warehouse.

The sable was still locked up in a wire cage, in a spare corner of the warehouse, still the same as it had been yesterday, curled up together, with its tail covered on its body, only its nose and eyes were exposed, and its eyes were timid, and it looked like people couldn't help but feel pity, and in front of it, there were a few pieces of raw meat, which seemed to have not been touched at all, and had not even looked at it.

Chen Hui walked over and squatted next to the cage, looked at the sable carefully, and finally nodded, and said, it was indeed a sable, and then stood up and asked the middle-aged man in the suit, how much would he be willing to sell.

The middle-aged man in the suit didn't say a word, and stretched out two fingers at Chen Hui, Chen Hui frowned immediately when he saw it, Qiang Shun was happy next to him, and said: "Two hundred, boss, the money we brought is just enough." ”

The middle-aged man in the suit turned his head to look at Qiang Shun, and said very flatly, "It's not two hundred, two thousand." ”

"What, two thousand?" When Qiang Shun and I heard it, we were all stunned, two thousand yuan is an astronomical amount for us, and we can't believe our ears.

Qiang Shun came back to his senses first and said to the middle-aged man in the suit: "Boss, didn't you take it from those people yesterday...... If you received 200 yuan, why will it become 2,000 today! ”

The middle-aged man in the suit ignored Qiang Shun, turned his face to Chen Hui and said: "One price, that's it, old Taoist, if you want it, take the money, don't just leave." ”

The muscles on Chen Hui's face immediately twitched, and he said in a low voice: "Brother, I don't have that much money, I have more than two hundred and twenty yuan on me, otherwise, I will give you all the money, you can treat it as a good deed, let this sable go, do you think it's okay?" ”

The middle-aged man in the suit smiled and said, "Old Taoist, I see that you are also a knowledgeable person, this thing is full of treasures, and if you ask for two thousand, it will be cheaper for you." ”

When Qiang Shun heard this, he argued: "Boss, aren't you killing people, when you collected it from those people, it was only 200 yuan, and now you sell us for 2,000!" ”

The middle-aged man in the suit suddenly sank his face when he heard this, raised his voice and said to Qiang Shun: "That's because they don't know the goods, if they want to buy it now, they will have to get at least two thousand!" ”

When Qiang Shun heard this, he didn't dare to say anything, and the middle-aged man in the suit immediately said to Chen Hui: "Old Taoist, at this price, do you want it, if not, I have something else to do." "This is obviously an eviction order for us.

The flesh on Chen Hui's face twitched again, and asked, "Brother, let's discuss it again, this sable ......"

The middle-aged man in the suit didn't wait for Chen Hui to finish speaking, and raised his hand at the door of the warehouse, meaning to tell us to go out.

Chen Hui shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "I'm a Taoist priest who asks for food, and I don't have so much money on me......

The middle-aged man in the suit ignored Chen Hui, and a few of us had to go out of the warehouse in a stupid manner, and the middle-aged man in the suit followed us out, I glanced at him and said, "Uncle, this sable can't be killed, killing it will not do you any good, you will be punished, you had better let it go." ”

The middle-aged man in the suit was quite polite to Chen Hui, but to me and Qiang Shun, it was really not polite, he glared at me coldly, and said, "I let you go and arrest me again?" If you really want it, just take the money, don't lie to me with such words, what retribution, even if there is retribution, I am not afraid! ”

I swallowed dryly, and said in my heart, it's really hard to persuade the damn ghost with good words, I don't dare to say anything more.

The four of us walked out of the hotel in despair, came to the side of the road, and asked Chen Hui Qiang Shun, "Dao Chief, what should we do now?" ”

Chen Hui shook his head helplessly, I had an idea at this time, and said to Chen Hui: "By the way, Dao Chief, don't we still have a pair of bracelets and gold hairpins, let's take them out and exchange them with the boss." ”

When Qiang Shun heard this, he was immediately unhappy, and said hurriedly: "No, no, it's our family's heirloom, and I can't exchange it with him!" ”

I gave him a blank look, "When will it become your family's heirloom?" ”

Qiang Shun played a scoundrel and said: "Anyway, I don't agree to exchange, those things are valuable treasures, and it will be a loss if you exchange them with him!" After Qiang Shun finished speaking, he blinked his eyes twice, as if he had thought of something, and then took my arm, pulled me aside, and whispered to me with Chen Hui on his back: "Don't change it, I want to find a way." ”

I looked puzzled, "What did you think of?" ”

Qiang Shun said: "You first ask Chen Daochang to go back to the mountain with Brother Silly Niu, and then I'll tell you what to do." ”

When I heard it, I felt that it was not a good way, otherwise, he should not say it in front of Chen Hui, I said, "You tell me what the solution is first." ”

Qiang Shun straightened his face, "No, you first ask Daochang Chen to go back with Brother Silly Niu, and I'll tell you." ”

I licked my lips. The two of them returned to Chen Hui and Silly Niu, and I said to Chen Hui: "Dao Chief, Qiang Shun and I are about to start working now, or ...... You and Brother Silly Cow go back first, and when we get off work in the evening, let's discuss it again, anyway, the boss won't kill that sable for the time being. ”

Chen Hui had a frustrated expression on his face at this time, and said bitterly: "I, Chen Hui, have been cultivating for decades, but now I can't even save an animal, so I'm ashamed of my master's teachings!" ”

As soon as I heard it, I said: "Daoist, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault, it doesn't matter if you cultivate the Tao or not, it's all to blame the hotel owner for not opening his eyes, and when he has retribution, he will know the lesson!" ”

Chen Hui immediately said: "When he has retribution, won't he lose both?" ”

What Chen Hui said, I didn't know what to say, turned my head and glanced at Qiang Shun, Qiang Shun hurriedly said: "Chen Daochang, Huang He, I have to go back to work, otherwise the boss will fire me." After saying that, Qiang Shun turned around and ran, I looked, this rabbit cub!

Chen Hui immediately sighed and waved his hand at me, "You can go back to work too, we'll talk about this in the evening." I gasped.

Chen Hui left with the stupid cow, I looked at the back of the two of them leaving, and suddenly felt that Chen Hui seemed to be thinking about something, standing on the side of the road and watching them disappear into the mountains, and then returned to his hotel.

In a blink of an eye, the time came to noon, I waited for the guests to disperse, after finishing my work, I couldn't wait to go to the hotel where Qiang Shun was located to find Qiang Shun, and after helping Qiang Shun finish his work, I asked him, "What do you think of?" ”

Qiang Shun pulled me outside the hotel and sneakily said one word to me, "steal"

"What?" When I heard this, I immediately frowned, when I was a child, I led Qiang Shun, my brother Huangshan, and my neighbor Ming Jun, and went to other people's vegetable fields to steal cucumbers, pick tomatoes, and steal watermelons and sweet potatoes, but they were all naughty when I was a child, and I didn't have snacks to eat. However, if we steal again at this time, it will not be a matter of being caught and found at home and beaten by our parents.

I immediately shook my head, "No, we can't do such sneaky things." Then I said: "No wonder you don't want to let Chen Daochang know, if you let him know, you have to train the two of us to death!" ”

Qiang Shun said: "Then you go and get two thousand yuan now and buy the sable." ”

I choked, "Where am I going to get that money?" ”

"That's it......" Qiang Shun smiled and said very strangely: "Don't worry, I have thought of all the ways, and I won't be caught." ”

At that time, after all, I was young, although I was educated by my grandmother since I was a child, but, deep down, I still had a rebellious heart, and, like children of the same age, doing some sneaky little bad things, such as skipping school, smoking and drinking, etc., felt particularly exciting.

In the end, I couldn't stand Qiang Shun's bewitchment, nodded and agreed, and then I asked Qiang Shun, "The warehouse in your hotel, don't you lock the door at night, let's go in and steal it, where do you get the key?" ”

Qiang Shun said: "You don't care about this, you just need to agree......"

After work that night, I came to the hotel where Qiang Shun was again, waited at the door of the hotel, waited for a long time, Qiang Shun finally came out of the hotel, at this time, the time was nearly one o'clock in the middle of the night, the two people met at the door of the hotel, I was just about to ask him, why is it so late today, but, before the words were asked, I smelled a smell of wine on him, as if he had just drunk wine.

Qiang Shun didn't say a word at this time, and pulled me to the hotel, I looked around weakly, there was no one around, and the two of them walked through the hall and quickly came to the backyard.

Qiang Shun pulled me straight to the kitchen at this time, the light was still on in the kitchen, I was about to ask him, what are we doing in the kitchen, suddenly I heard a man's voice in the kitchen, "Qiang Shun, is your friend here?" ”

Qiang Shun hurriedly responded, "It's coming, it's coming." ”

With that, he led me into the kitchen, and I looked at theirs, which was a little bigger than ours, and had an extra stove or something. I remember hearing Qiang Shun say that there are two chefs in charge of their restaurant.

A little inside the kitchen door, there is a small table, there are two dishes on the table, one meat and one vegetable, and two bottles of wine, next to the table, there is a man in his thirties, eating very strongly, it is this man who spoke just now.

Qiang Shun hurriedly introduced me, "Huang He, this is our senior chef here." ”

As soon as I heard Qiang Shun's words, I knew that Qiang Shun was flattering the man in front of him, where did the senior chef work in a roadside restaurant.

I saw this "senior chef" sitting on a stool, with only half a bottle of wine left in his hand, and his face was slightly red, and it seemed that he had already drunk a lot. The man didn't get up from the stool, looked at me suspiciously, and then asked Qiang Shun, "Qiang Shun, this is what you said, the ancestral ghost catcher?" ”

I was stunned when I heard this, Qiang Shun hurriedly nodded at the man, "Yes, I'm talking about him, his name is Liu Huanghe, my good friend, the ancestral ghost catcher in the family for several generations, but it's amazing!" ”

When the man heard this, he laughed drunkenly and said, "A little hairy boy, what kind of ghost will you catch, you just want to trick me into drinking, don't you?" ”

Qiang Shun pulled me to sit opposite the man, Qiang Shun said to the man: "We are all fellow countrymen, what am I lying to you for, don't look at my friend's young age, he is a real ancestral ghost hunter, I don't believe you go to the Yellow River to inquire, and now there are stories of their families in some places." ”

The man waved his hand, "I'm not going to inquire, for the sake of our fellow countrymen, today's meal is my treat." ”

Qiang Shun was unconvinced and said: "If you don't believe it, you ask my friend to tell you a story about their family's exorcism of evil spirits and ghosts." ”

When I heard Qiang Shun's words, I was a little confused, didn't we come to steal the sable, why did it get to our family, and you want me to tell a story.

However, when the man heard Qiang Shun's words, he became interested and asked me, "Little brother, is your family really in charge of evil things?" ”

I turned my head to look at Qiang Shun, who raised his eyebrows at me, I cleared my throat and replied, "Yes, our family...... My ancestors have been exorcising evil spirits for several generations, and it has been passed down to my generation, which is already the fifth generation. ”

When the man heard this, he immediately laughed, looked at Qiang Shun and said, "It's really interesting that you brought this friend, you look very honest, and you don't blink when you lie." ”

I frowned suddenly, and said in my heart, what is this Wang Qiangshun pulling me for?
