Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Visit for Zulu
I looked at the old cat, then at the rhubarb, and suddenly remembered that I had met the madman at the school gate a few days ago.
"By the way, Rhubarb, I met your master a few days ago. Genuine Master, crazy Taoist. I said.
Rhubarb's eyes lit up and asked, "That old madman hasn't left Beijing yet?" Did you ask him what he was doing here, trying to find Rujun? ”
I shook my head: "He didn't say it too clearly, but it seems to be looking for someone." ”
Rhubarb frowned. He quickly made a puzzled expression and asked, "Looking for someone?" The old madman had no relatives. There are only a few friends, and he is looking for someone? Who are you looking for? ”
I hurriedly said, "He seems to say that it has something to do with you......"
"Something to do with me?" Rhubarb asked, "This is even more strange, why does it have something to do with me?" ”
I had to repeat: "The madman said that he was actually quite sorry for you in his life, you are his most proud apprentice, but unfortunately he died in a foreign land." In the first ten years, he wanted to help you find that piece of Huanyang jade, and now in the next ten years, he will help you find someone again. "Brother Zhuang every catty.
Rhubarb's brows furrowed more and more, and he said, "What the hell does this old madman want to do?" ”
The old cat asked: "Since the madman came to Beijing to look for it, then that person should be in Beijing, but I don't know what the specific identity is." ”
Rhubarb leaned back on the sofa, let out a long sigh, and said, "Forget it, let him go, alas, that old madman looks crazy, but he is really good to me......"
Speaking of this, Rhubarb's eyes were slightly moist, presumably he must have regarded the old madman as his father. I don't know how much weight this sentence still has now, but at least more than ten years or even decades ago, it was still a loud truth.
The old cat finished smoking a cigarette, looked around, and said, "I don't know why Bai Yanshan left in the end, looking at the way she looked just now, my red rope lock ghost didn't have much effect on her." ”
Rhubarb said, "Actually, Master Cat. You don't have to be too presumptuous, although the red rope lock ghost can't cause too much damage to her, but it is more than enough to control her, plus the output of me and Lin Yang and the two of us, even if that guy can't die, he will definitely be half-crippled by us. ”
The old cat patted the rhubarb, didn't comment on what he said, but smiled: "Yes, rhubarb, you can use such a difficult idiom as arrogant?" ”
Rhubarb glared at the old cat, didn't speak, but got up and said, "Lin Yang, I guess Bai Yanshan won't dare to come back for a while, I and the old cat will withdraw first, and call us if there is something." ”
I nodded and watched the two of them leave the apartment, a little stunned for a moment.
Now we have become well-known characters in the underworld of Sijiu City, and from now on, it may not be so simple to live a peaceful life.
The good thing is that we have a good relationship with the Wang family and the Chen family, but the dangerous point is that we have inseparable beams with the Bai family and even the Xu family.
Alas, if there is, there is, in life, where can you still be liked by everyone?
I leaned back on the sofa and watched TV sleepily, it was already late, but because of the tossing with Bai Yanshan just now, I didn't feel the slightest sleepiness.
As the minutes ticked by, I suddenly heard a knock at the door.
The knock on the door was abrupt, almost without warning, and the sound was heavy, as if the guest was a heavyweight.
"Who could it be?" I couldn't help but think in my heart, I usually only have contact with the old cat Rhubarb, and the rest is the third grandfather on the door, but the third grandfather is not in good health, with his body bones, it is absolutely impossible to knock on the door loudly.
I hurriedly lay on the cat's eye to take a look, this look, scared me out of a cold sweat, only to see Lao Xie, Xie Huaiyu, is standing at the door with a nervous face!
What's going on? This guy has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but now he suddenly appeared, something important must have happened, I quickly opened the door and said, "Why are you here?" ”
Lao Xie looked around and asked, "Why does it taste like this?" Did you just get into a fight here? ”
I nodded, and told him briefly about Bai Yanshan's coming to ask for his life just now.
Lao Xie glared when he heard this, and said, "Oh, Lin Yang, what kind of evil have you created recently, why did you even get into trouble with Bai Yanshan?" Let me tell you, the matter of Bai Yanshan has spread in the underworld, and people have said that the little girl has devoured the entire thirty percent of the Bai family's feng shui creation, and that is a matter of personal life. In the future, under the ground of Sijiu City, there will only be a handful of characters who can control Bai Yanshan, and I heard that the Xu family is preparing to find a young generation with good appearance and ability to climb with Bai Yanshan to climb into the in-laws! ”
When I heard this, I broke out in a cold sweat: "This Xu family and the Bai family still want to mix together?" Then have you heard any news about Wang Haoran of the Wang family? ”
Lao Xie smiled contemptuously and said, "Hey, who cares about him?" That kid can't do it in the first place, he relies on the resources of the Wang family, and the Wang family is also close to the number of gas, and there are no too potential goods in the new generation, so for the sake of a Wang Haoran, almost all the resources of the Wang family are wasted, but ah...... Wang Haoran, this kid is probably a dou who can't be helped. ”
When I heard Lao Xie describe my old classmate like this, I felt a little unhappy in my heart, and asked coldly, "Aren't you able to penetrate walls and doors?" Why knock on the door? ”
Lao Xie smiled and said, "I am a person of rules, how can I do such a lack of morality." ”
I asked, "So what are you doing here?" ”
When Lao Xie heard this, he patted his head and said: "Oh, I'm really confused, I'm in a hurry, I want to give you a message, is there anything abnormal on your side?" ”
I shook my head and said, "Nothing out of the ordinary, huh?" How? Someone is coming to me for trouble? ”
Lao Xie nodded desperately and said: "It's not that someone wants to trouble you, there are ghosts who want to trouble you, the things you did a few days ago have already been stabbed to the underworld, not to mention that the ghosts in the four major families look at you unpleasantly, even the messenger seems to think that you, as a living person in the yang world, have too much influence on the underworld, no, with the consent of the envoy, the Xu family immediately dispatched, tonight I don't know that the Xu family's ghost is coming over, but you have to understand, the Xu family has no weak hands, just a bad ghost, kill you as if it's playing!" ”
My face changed when I heard this, and I asked, "Where did you get the news, I haven't seen any other ghosts except Bai Yanshan this night, aren't you scaring me?" ”
Lao Xie said: "Scaring you? In order to scare you, I came all the way here to play with you? You're too funny, aren't you? No, hurry up, it's too dangerous here, you don't care where I got the news, anyway, the Xu family has already issued a wanted warrant for your life, and it's tonight! ”
I heard it in a cold sweat and said, "The Xu family actually said that they would make a move, this is too fast, right?" ”
Lao Xie opened the door and urged: "Don't talk nonsense, it's the king to run quickly, you're not safe here at all, what's that...... The Xu family's characteristic is that it is extremely efficient, since they want your life, they will definitely do it today. ”
The logic of my conversation with Lao Xie began to be confused, Lao Xie walked in front, I followed behind with my bag, the two of us rushed to the elevator room, and suddenly saw the elevator on the left suddenly lit up, slowly rising from the basement floor to our floor......
"Lao Xie, is the ghost taking the elevator?" I asked.
The cold sweat on Lao Xie's face also flowed, he obviously didn't want the Xu family's ghosts to find out, if the ghosts in Sijiu City knew that Lao Xie and I had been in contact all the time, then Lao Xie's fate would definitely not be better than mine.
"Ghost ...... Should you take the elevator, right? Lao Xie's voice trembled, and he pointed to another elevator parked on the first floor and said, "Why don't we take another one?" ”
I hurriedly shook my head: "No, it's too late, if this is the Xu family's ghost, when the elevator on the left reaches our floor, and the elevator on the right hasn't come up yet, we will be knocked squarely!" ”
