Chapter 1100: Mr. Zhang who borrowed money
Guru Bama said to me without a clue, "Brother Mo, I beg you, tell me the location of that holy lake quickly." The old king is chasing me, and if he knows my whereabouts, I'm afraid I'll have to become crippled if I don't die. I have turned against him, otherwise I wouldn't have told you these things. If I get the six-character mantra Mani stone passed down by Guru Padmasambhava, I will be able to rely on my lifelong practice, although I will not be able to attain enlightenment, I can also cultivate some supernatural powers, and I will never be afraid of the old king again. ”
I was so amazed that I didn't know what was going on between the old king of Guru Bama. But no matter how much I asked, Guru Bama would not confide in me again, but just begged me and reminded me not to fall into the trap of Lao Wang.
Although I didn't understand what was going on, since Guru Bama had told me so many secrets, and seeing that he looked pitiful again, I couldn't help but point him to the location of that terrible and mysterious little lake.
Guru Bama took out a large handful of money from a drawer, stuffed it into his large, dirty robes, and was about to leave when a little red scream came from the top of the stairs. Xiaohong rushed down the staircase, grabbed Guru Bama's arm and said, "Where are you going?" Why do you take my money? ”
Guru Bama said with a gloomy face: "Xiaohong, I opened this shop for you at my expense, and now I borrow some of your money, and you are like this?" You remember, I borrowed this money for urgent use, and I will repay you twice as much within three months at most. By the way, don't reveal my relationship with you to anyone, if you let others know the truth, I won't let you go first. ”
He patted me on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xiaomo, thank you!" If I succeed in obtaining the artifact and cultivating into supernatural powers, I will definitely come back to seek revenge on Lao Wang, and when the time comes, maybe I can help you. Brother, I will say goodbye here, there will be a period later! ”
Before I could come to my senses, Guru Bama had already broken free from Xiaohong's entanglement and soon disappeared into the crowd. Xiaohong stayed in the store and cried, I quickly covered the door of the hotel and said, "Boss, don't cry, let others see it, you still think I did something to you!" Boss, you have to believe Guru Bama, he is in trouble and he is only leaving you temporarily, didn't he say that? In three months, he will come back to you and double your money. ”
I finally stopped the hostess's crying. The proprietress suddenly hugged me and said, "Little brother, you are still good to me, like this bald donkey has no conscience at all." ”
I was startled, and was thinking about how to get rid of the boss's entanglement, when I suddenly saw an off-road vehicle stop abruptly in front of the store. Fortunately, the sun was shining outside, the inside of the hotel was relatively dark, and the closed glass door was covered with sticker advertisements, so people outside should not be able to see the situation inside.
I hurriedly pushed Xiaohong away and said anxiously: "Boss, someone is coming, don't make a sound, wipe away your tears." Remember, don't mention Guru Bama in front of anyone who comes, or he may be in trouble. ”
The proprietress also saw the people getting out of the car outside walking towards her shop, quickly wiped away a handful of tears, and sat back in the bar. The door was pushed open, and a chubby middle-aged man, accompanied by two young men with meaty faces, walked into the hotel.
The proprietress just opened her mouth and asked, "Are you staying in the hotel?" The middle-aged man saw me, took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of triangular eyes that did not match his fat white body, and asked me slowly, "Are you called Mo Xun?" ”
I immediately understood that this group of people should be the friends that Lao Wang said, and they came to me. I quickly nodded, and the middle-aged man looked me up and down, nodded again and again, "Okay!" Good! ”
His two 'yes' sounded to me inexplicably, and I didn't know what he meant. The middle-aged man said, "Brother Xiaomo, show me your ID card!" It's not that my brother doesn't believe you, it's better to be cautious when we meet for the first time, don't recognize the wrong person, it's not good to make a misunderstanding. ”
I nodded and said to the proprietress, "Boss, these should be the friends who sent me money, can you please show them my ID card?" ”
The proprietress hesitated, then took my ID holder from the bar drawer and placed it on the bar. The middle-aged man looked at it carefully and handed me my folder.
I hesitated whether I should take my document folder, for I had already seen the proprietress look anxious, perhaps because the two young men with fleshy faces were standing in front of her murderously, and she did not dare to say a word.
Seeing that I didn't accept my ID card, the middle-aged man suddenly changed his serious demeanor, and Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed. He took out a few hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and threw them on the bar, while laughing: "Ha Luha, I almost forgot that our little Mo brothers have no money, and the documents are mortgaged to the boss lady." ”
He turned to the proprietress and said, "This money belongs to you, is it enough?" Can I get my little brother's ID back? ”
The proprietress hurriedly nodded and said nervously: "Don't want so much money, I'll find you!" ”
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "What? The hostess looks down on me? Are you taking me for a bad person? Ha Luha, in fact, I am a very good person. You can take in my brother Xiaomo, this is enough to show that the boss lady is a good person, this money is trivial, the boss lady should accept it! ”
He grinned at me and said, "Brother Xiaomo, you shouldn't have any luggage, right?" Okay, now that you've got your papers, come with us! ”
I said, "Let's go together?" Where are you going? Didn't Lao Wang say on the phone that he asked a friend to lend me money? You didn't say you wanted us to go with you! ”
The middle-aged man said with a smile: "Brother Xiaomo, my surname is Zhang." You are Lao Wang's little brother, and naturally you are also my little brother, what are you doing outside? That's right, I'm here to send you money. But look at it, this place is dirty and small, and it's not convenient for us to talk! Brother Xiaomo, let's go, your brother will take you to a high-end tea house to sit down. ”
Hey, anyway, I have a request for him, and the initiative is not with me. I had to nod helplessly, and after thanking the proprietress, I followed the man surnamed Zhang to the off-road vehicle.
The two people with meaty faces behind me followed, which made me feel uneasy and uncomfortable. Fortunately, when he arrived at the side of the car, the man surnamed Zhang said: "Xiao Li, Xiao Xu, you two sit in the back, now I will drive, let Brother Xiaomo sit in the passenger seat." ”
The two of them didn't say a word, and immediately got into the car, and I sat in the passenger seat with a sense of relief. Not long after, the man surnamed Zhang, who was driving the car, had already driven the car to the bottom of a teahouse.
As soon as a few of us entered the teahouse, a waitress dressed in bright Tibetan costumes came up to greet us. The man surnamed Zhang waved his hand and said, "Find us the best private room, and send you the best special dim sum here, remember, don't enter our box if you have nothing to do." ”
After everything was settled, the man surnamed Zhang sat across from me and asked bluntly, "Brother Xiaomo, how much do you want to borrow?" ”
As Guru Bama revealed many secrets to me, I began to change from suspicion to wariness of Lao Wang, and even more so about the three friends he had introduced. I cautiously asked, "Mr. Zhang, can I ask a question first?" How could you come to Tibet and find me so quickly? ”
The man surnamed Zhang said happily: "Brother Xiaomo, I have been friends with Lao Wang for many years. I usually do a little business in Yunnan and Sichuan, Lao Wang said that you are his nobleman, and said that you are in trouble and want me to help, how dare I slack off, and came from Yunnan overnight. ”
I said 'oh' and said, "Mr. Zhang, in fact, I don't want to borrow much money, as long as I have enough money to go home!" By the way, can't you go back? If you go back to Bluestone as well, then I can hitchhike back without having to borrow money. ”
Mr. Zhang said happily: "Brother Xiaomo, I am not from Qingshi Town. It's just because I'm friends with Lao Wang, and I often go to Qingshi Town. Recently, I've been so busy with business here that I can't leave to go to Bluestone Town, so I'm sorry to say to you, I can't drive you back. ”
He pouted at the young man named Xiao Xu next to him, and the young man immediately took out a large stack of money from one of the satchels he had with him. I took a look, good fellow, a hundred thousand. I secretly thought in my heart, this man surnamed Zhang must also be a person with the same great powers as Lao Wang, and he actually carried so much cash with him when he went out.
While I was watching them flute, Mr. Zhang pushed the stack of money from the glass coffee table to me, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiaomo, do you see if this money is enough?" If it's not enough, I'll go back to the bank and withdraw some. ”
I was surprised, "Wouldn't it?" This is lent to me? How can I use so much money! Mr. Zhang, you're not kidding, are you? ”
Mr. Zhang grinned and said, "Is this a lot of money?" Brother Xiaomo, Lao Wang told me that you are going to be in Tibet for a month, and it has only been less than ten days. Brother Xiaomo, I'm busy these days, what if you don't have enough money and I can't spare the money to send you money? ”
I said in surprise: "Mr. Zhang, I originally planned to go back to Qingshi Town directly, but the old king told you that I have to stay for a month before I can go back?" Why didn't he say it to me on the phone? ”
Mr. Zhang's face suddenly sank and said, "Brother Xiaomo, I don't know what he wants you to do, and I won't ask." It's just that I want to tell you, relying on your parents at home, relying on friends when you go out, and your husband walking the rivers and lakes, the most important thing is credibility! How can you return halfway when you are entrusted by someone? ”
I was silent for a while, thinking about this Mr. Zhang's words is also very reasonable. Lao Wang listened to Guru Bama's words and asked me to come to Tibet for a month, and now there are nearly 20 days left, if I go back early, I will really be a bit suspicious of not keeping my promises!
