Mr. Zhang couldn't help but say, and took out a small account book from the small briefcase he carried. He tore off a blank sheet of paper from it, handed it to me, and said, "Brother Xiaomo, you can write an IOU on it and press a handprint." ”

I said suspiciously: "You should issue an IOU to borrow money, but do you have any conditions?" It's better to make it clear with me! ”

Mr. Zhang said lightly: "Little brother, you are too worried!" You're a friend of Lao Wang, how could I not believe you? Lao Wang is a verbal guarantor, so I dare to lend you money. Do you think about how hard it is to borrow money in today's society? If it weren't for Lao Wang's guarantee for you, he would have lent you 100 yuan, and I wouldn't have to worry about it! Okay, don't think about it, write an IOU! After the money is handed over to you, I have to go, and there is so much more to do! ”

Hearing him speak so reasonably, I began to hesitate. What's more, Mr. Zhang said that this IOU is just a formality, as long as the amount and borrower are written on it, and the ID number is attached, and I can press a fingerprint. I thought about it for a while, and now that I am penniless, I really have no other way than to borrow money from the Mr. Zhang in front of me, so I have to write an IOU on it and sign it according to his requirements.

Xiao Xu, who was next to Mr. Zhang, immediately took out a box of ink clay from his bag, opened it and put it in front of me. I hesitated, followed his instructions, and pressed my right thumb print on my signature.

Mr. Zhang looked at the IOU, put it away with a smile, put it in his account book, and stuffed it into his briefcase. After doing all this, he said to that Xiao Xu: "Xiao Xu, Brother Xiaomo has so much money, it will attract attention, this is too dangerous for Tibet." Your bag will be given to Brother Xiaomo! ”

Xiao Xu said 'um', put the stack of money in front of me, and said to me: "Brother Xiaomo, Mr. Zhang's money will be lent to you, you can count it and confirm it!" ”

I hurriedly said politely: "No need, when I was in trouble, thanks to Mr. Zhang for sending money to the door and saving me from this urgency, how dare I not believe Zhang's determination!" ”

Xiao Xu said: "Brother Xiaomo, we like to be above board, I still think it's good for you to count in person, don't make any mistakes, everyone's face is not good-looking!" ”

I beckoned to look at Mr. Zhang, he looked at me with a smile and nodded, and I had to start counting them one by one. When I was about to finish counting, my brow tightened.

Mr. Zhang said he: "Brother Xiaomo, what's wrong with you?" Is the amount of money wrong? ”

I replied in a panic: "Mr. Zhang, there are some problems, maybe I counted wrong!" Wait until I count them again! ”

Mr. Zhang said with a smile: "Don't count, did you only count to 90,000?" And the IOU written to me was 100,000, right? ”

I knew something was wrong, so I had to nod my head. Mr. Zhang said slowly: "You didn't count wrong, the money in your hand is indeed only 90,000." Where is the other ten thousand? Brother Xiaomo, we don't talk darkly, you are Lao Wang's little brother, but there is no friendship between me and you. I was able to lend you money because of Wang's guarantee. You and he are friends, but between me and you is just business. Think about it, I took these two brothers from Yunnan overnight to rush here to save you, don't you count the fuel money on the road, the cost of eating, and the hard work of these two little brothers to them? By the way, there is also a car wear and tear fee. It's been nearly ten days since you came to Tibet, and you know how bad the road conditions are here. ”

I muttered, "But deducting 90,000 at once is too much, right?" ”

Lao Wang patted me on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xiaomo, you are a smart person, and Lao Wang is your backer, what is this money to you?" If you don't want to, then I can pat my ass and leave. You give me back the money, and I'll give you the IOU, but you have to take our five thousand losses, right? ”

My head grew big all of a sudden, Mr. Zhang's words were both soft and hard, not to mention that the two young people around him were not like good people, standing around me with a face full of flesh and a fierce face. I thought to myself: If I don't lend them money, it seems that I have to give them the 5,000 loss fee, although I don't have money now, I guess I will also write an IOU of 5,000, then wouldn't I be stupid? To make matters worse, he had neither the money for the journey home, nor the living expenses for living in Tibet, and what was even more wrongful was that he owed the other party 5,000 yuan in vain.

I gritted my teeth and decided to sacrifice the 10,000 yuan. When I return to my hometown, I will ask Lao Wang for an explanation. I let out a long sigh and put the money in the bag and slung it over my shoulder.

Mr. Zhang smiled at this time, stretched out his hand to me and said, "Brother Xiaomo, we are working together for the first time, some things are the rules of the rivers and lakes, you must not mind." After getting acquainted, we are also friends, and when you need help with any difficulties, just ask. ”

To be honest, this is the most reassuring sentence I heard Mr. Zhang say. The depression in my heart dissipated a little, and I also stretched out my hand to shake Mr. Zhang's hand.

Mr. Zhang shook my hand and said, "Brother Xiaomo, your business is done, and I can also give an account to Lao Wang." I still have a lot of things to do, so I won't invite you to dinner, and we'll meet later. By the way, Lao Wang has taken care of you, so that you can have a good time playing around Tibet, and what Master Bama has explained, please take it to heart. ”

I didn't know how to answer him for a while, but Mr. Zhang stood up, and two young people immediately followed him. As soon as Mr. Zhang walked to the door, he suddenly turned back to me and said, "Brother Xiaomo, there is one more important thing I have to take care of you!" That Guru Bama was originally Tibetan, and he cheated Lao Wang out of a lot of money, and then he disappeared. If you send it to him occasionally in Tibet, you must remember to call Lao Wang without him. If you do, then the 100,000 yuan in arrears will be written off! ”

I was so surprised that before I could react, the three of them had already turned away, leaving me alone in the private room of the teahouse.

I can't tell if I was happy or depressed or scared, anyway, I felt that my mood was messed up, and I sat in a daze for more than half an hour before leaving the teahouse.

With the money on me, I was no longer as embarrassed as I used to be, and began to wander leisurely around the center of Lhasa. It wasn't until dark that I found a luxuriously decorated hotel to stay in.

After eating and drinking, I lay on the bed in the hotel and thought about what happened to me after entering Tibet, tossing and turning, and I couldn't sleep. The scene of the tragic death of the fairy and the red sleeves recurred in my mind like a movie. However, I didn't dare to call the police because I was afraid that I would be suspected of murder.

The two beauties of Hao Lang met me in Tibet, and disappeared inexplicably in an uninhabited place, and I was the only one alive unscathed, what would the police think? More importantly, can I tell the police about the sacred lake and the scene of Guru Padmasambhava, who has been said to have been in place for thousands of years, subdued the evil dragon? Can I still tell the police that we entered a cave where the body of a dragon does not exist, and that the fairy and the red sleeves were engulfed in flames?

Of course I can't do that, otherwise I'll be either a murder suspect or a psychopath, or both. After much thought, I decided to quietly leave Tibet, go to the hometown of Red Sleeves and Tianxianzi, and silently distribute the money I borrowed to their families, so as to alleviate the guilt and anxiety in my heart.

No sooner had I made this decision than the phone rang in the hotel. I wondered, I didn't know anyone here, and I had just checked into this hotel, who would call me?

I took the phone and listened, and a female voice came from the phone. I only listened to one sentence and immediately understood the identity of the other party. Although I despised such a filthy woman who betrayed her body, I politely refused. Hey, I can't imagine that in this place with blue sky and white clouds and particularly fresh air, this kind of dirty and dirty transaction is inevitable.

It's not that I'm hypocritical, to be honest, I admit that I like women, especially beautiful women, and even because I'm young, strong-blooded, and full of strong desire for sex, I'm not a messy person. I despise the kind of woman who is like a public toilet, and although on two occasions I almost went out of line, but it was only when I was on fire that the god of gold or black armor would appear in time to stop the sins I might commit.

I can't touch dirty things, not only demons, but also women who betray their sexuality, and I've learned that from my previous experience. In one night, I rejected several such calls in a row, which not only made me feel very tired, but even began to feel irritable.

I left the phone rack empty so that no more calls would come in and harass me. Lying on the bed, I thought of the lonely lotus Li Shanshan, Cai Huifen who saved my life, and even more thought of the flower girl who accompanied me into Tibet but died in the flames.

I don't know how long it took for my emotions to calm down. When I thought of Tan Min, my heart welled up with great excitement. Thinking back to all the details of my dealings with her, although she didn't show that kind of affection for me, I still deluded myself into fantasizing that I had a place in her heart.

While I was immersed in my own imaginary mood, the phone suddenly rang again. Interrupted by my good dream, I grabbed the earpiece and yelled angrily: "I'm sorry, I'm a eunuch, I don't need this kind of service!" ”

There was a giggling sound on the other end of the line, like the voices of two young women. As I was in the middle of the day, one of the women said delicately: "Brother Xiaomo, what's the matter, you don't recognize us?" Hey, aren't you lonely right now? Do you want our sisters to accompany you? ”

What the? Two young ladies to accompany me? The thought that made my heart beat faster had just crossed my mind when it suddenly sounded familiar. I paused for a moment, and suddenly remembered that I had just hung up the phone, how could there be a call coming in? Not good! It's them! I suddenly felt my scalp explode, and cold sweat immediately burst out of my forehead and vest!
