Chapter 11: Recruiting Members
After discussing with my sister, we both felt that our father's illness could no longer allow us to wait, and every minute of delay would put him in more danger. Get everything done early to avoid long nights and unnecessary accidents. So the next day, the three of us took a flight to China again.
On the first morning of coming to Wuhan, it was summer in Wuhan, one of China's three major furnaces, and I was greeted by a fiery morning sun when I got up.
Ignoring the hardships of the journey and the scorching summer, I asked Dorjee to withdraw some cash and then go to Judian (a well-known shop in the antique market) to post the recruitment news.
Sister Gege and I were buying some guns and ammunition on the black market, and since listening to Mr. Wang's description of the Blood Rakshasa, I felt that the more explosives the better. Anyway, I don't need to carry it, maybe I have to rely on these high technologies to deal with the immortal things.
Through an acquaintance's introduction, I successfully found a Russian arms dealer in Wuhan. They are Russian arms dealers, but they are obsolete goods from the Soviet era.
However, although these equipment are old, they have experienced the baptism of World War II and are very handy and durable. After picking and choosing, I chose a Russian-made revolver, and by the way, I got an AK for Dorjee, and Senior Sister Gege only needed a military dagger.
I bought Dorjee a few more kilograms of ammunition. Explosives are indispensable, and the most pleasing thing for me is to get a Nepalese saber, when I was training in the British Royal Bodyguard Corps in the early years, I had a soft spot for this dog-legged saber, but I didn't expect to get one unexpectedly this time.
After picking and choosing to see the must-bring equipment after buying, it was already noon, and Senior Sister Gege and I went back to the restaurant to have dinner with Dorjee, who was in a hurry.
Dorjee was happily pulling in his bowl when the waiter brought in a young man who smelled of alcohol.
This person is more than 1.8 meters tall, with a pair of melancholy eyes on the bridge of his tall nose, as if full of the ups and downs and vicissitudes of life.
Before I could speak, he sat down on the empty chair next to him. I didn't expect the recruitment letter that Dorjee sent in the morning, and it was only noon, and there were still people coming for lunch.
"Hurry up and get the wine, otherwise where will you get the courage to go underground to play?" He said as if no one was around. The waiter looked at me, and I nodded slightly.
After a while, two bottles of brandy were served, and I saw that the waiter brought the wine, so I took the opportunity to say, "Sir, you might as well introduce yourself, so that we can get to know you." "
The man took a bottle of brandy, took a sip, then slowly opened his sleepy eyes and said, "I will rob the grave." ”
We were all waiting for him to continue, but he didn't speak again for a long time.
Dorjee said, "What? That's it? Nothing? ”
I said, "Oh? Since you know how to rob tombs, do you know how to descend corpses? ”
He said: "I don't dare to do it, I can barely save my life underground." ”
Then I asked, "So do you know the Blood Rakshasa then?" "
"What? Blood Rakshasa ? Are you going to a place guarded by the Blood Rakshasas? He asked, his eyes wide in surprise.
I said, "Yes, there is indeed a Blood Rakshasa in the tomb we went to this time, I wonder if you have a way to subdue the Blood Rakshasa ?" "
Then he was silent for a long time, and then poured a big sip of himself and said, "According to rumors, this Blood Rakshasa is the tomb suppressor of the Extreme Yin, but since the Manchu Tartars entered the customs, there has been no Blood Rakshasa in China, it seems that the tomb you are going to is probably from before the Manchu Dynasty, right?" ”
I said, "I'll tell you the truth, this deal was made with King Ming." ”
He then said, "The three souls and seven spirits of the Blood Rakshasa (there are three human souls, one is the heavenly soul, the second is the earth soul, and the third is the life soul. There are seven human spirits, one is the heavenly chong, two are the wisdom, the three are the qi, the four are the strength, the five are the center, the six are the essence, and the seven are the heroes. Only one spirit remained in him, but he gathered the woman's resentment. Therefore, he is immortal and immortal, and retains a little sanity, silently guarding the tomb owner in the tomb. In fact, it is not the Blood Rakshasa that is powerful, but his weapon. "
I said, "Weapons? "
He said, "Yes, that's right, that weapon is infused with the resentment of thousands of women, and it is a weapon of extreme yin. The reason why the Blood Rakshasa is so powerful is because of the Nine Shadows Silver Spear.
Because his soul has been dissipated, he has no perception, which means that if the Blood Rakshasa leaves his weapon, then even if he is invulnerable and immortal for a thousand years, he will be as blind as if he is unable to act normally, and then it is the best time to get rid of him.
However, it should be noted that the corpse qi in the body of this Blood Rakshasa has been pregnant for a hundred years, and it is highly poisonous. As long as you inhale a little, you will be poisoned, and in the light case, you will fall unconscious, and in the worst case, your whole body will rot and die.
If you want to treat the person who inhales the qi of his corpse, he must have the golden pill in the body of the Blood Rakshasa . "
I couldn't help but think in my heart, I didn't expect this drunk man to know so much about the Blood Rakshasa, and it was not much different from what Mr. Wang said.
It seems that this trip to Yunnan will depend on him to subdue the corpse and subdue the demon along the way. But it was this drunkard who, in the days that followed, pulled me back from the brink of life and death several times.
After having lunch with everyone, Dorjee chartered a suite for Zhao Zibin, and he went back to fetch things to live in, ready to leave at any time. As soon as I got back to my room, I heard a knock on the door.
I said, "Who?" "
The waiter's soft voice came from outside, "Mr. Yang, there is a middle-aged man waiting for you in the lobby outside, saying that he came to sign up." "
I said, "Let him come to the room and see me."
The waiter said "yes" and went down.
After a while, a middle-aged man walked in, who was in his early fifties, with a dark and short body, with two particularly thick arms, and a pair of calloused hands. Looking up, he has long, messy hair mixed with summer sweat.
A square face that is large enough, but only leaves a small piece of land in the middle for the facial features, so the facial features are almost crowded together. Especially with a lewd expression. I can't help but wonder if the Blood Rakshasa looks like this.
The man clasped his hands into fists and said with a smile: "Young Master Yang is really young!" "I've been used to hearing these compliments since I was a child. So I didn't show a happy expression when I complimented him, but just said lightly, "Please be seated."
After sitting down, the middle-aged man said, "I don't know what kind of manpower Young Master Yang lacks, so I can see if I am suitable?" "
I said, "I don't have a shortage of people who are not afraid of death, I don't know if you can still take on heavy responsibilities at your age?" "
"Haha, my old ghost in Xiangxi threw his life and death to Lord Yama thirty years ago. Now that I have lived for so many more years, will I live more and more afraid of death? The old ghost said.
I thought to myself, from the moment the old ghost walked into the house, I smelled the earthy smell of his body, which was contaminated by years of "underground work", and could not be washed off by any body wash. At the moment I have no shortage of young and strong young men, only such experienced veterans.
After talking to the old ghost again, I felt that this person was not simple. At the same time, I am curious that with his ability, he should have made a fortune in the tomb earlier, and at his current age, he should have changed careers to other businesses, or enjoyed his old age.
But he is willing to become someone else's servant, desperately robbing the tomb for others, and taking 10,000 steps back, even if he is still engaged in "underground work", then he should be the leader and lead the team to rob the tomb...... Isn't it for the clues we have? So what is his purpose?
Thinking about this, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. I glanced at the old ghost, and there was a bit of cunning in his lewd appearance, and I thought to myself, "It seems that I have to try him to solve my concerns, and if there is really no second heart, then such an experienced veteran is hard to come by."
So I said, "I don't know, old ghost, what do you want?" "
The old ghost said, "Young Master Yang said this, he must have taken a fancy to my old bones, and I don't dare to brag about anything else." In the matter of robbing tombs, except for the emperor's mausoleum, my old ghost has never been down.
The other tombs go up to the princes and generals, and down to the big dignitaries, and there is nothing that my old ghost does not understand. But what? "
I said, "But what?" The old ghost said, "But I want a lot of money, because I am very short of money now, and I can't even afford to live in a hotel." Therefore, food, clothing, housing and transportation still rely on Young Master Yang's generous help. "
I laughed out loud and said, "You've been working in the soil for most of your life, and you still don't have money to spend?" "
The old ghost said, "I'm not afraid of Young Master Yang's jokes, old ghost, I have a lone seedling that is about the same age as you." But the ability is far from the same.
You've been in business for years, but that bastard boy has been drinking for years, and he can't achieve anything when he's so old. Ay! I had already stopped going to the ground, but last year I went on vacation to Hawaii, and this bastard didn't know how to know the password to my safe.
Take 3 million to gamble in Macau, you also know that the Macau casino is a money hole that cannot be filled. This bastard lost all his money and owed tens of thousands of dollars. It's a pity that I wasn't a good bird when I was young, and all the money I made was spent on drinking.
On the Golden Basin Handwashing Day, I donated another 2 million in order to exchange for a stable and peaceful old age.
Hey, everybody knows. Doing this is a loss of yin virtue! That's not how my son was when he was younger! As I got older, the kid became more and more arrogant. What kind of iniquity is all made! Ay! ”
The old ghost sighed and then continued: "Originally, I kept the last 10 million in my hand for retirement, but later I gave half of it to that kid to do business. Who would have thought that in today's situation, that bastard would run out of his own money and steal my money to gamble.
It's good now, the people are left there, and they want me to take the money to ransom it, and after I sell the house, it's still not enough. I'm just the only seedling, I have no choice but to send half of the people over there first.
When they kill people, it doesn't matter who you are or what your background is, as long as you don't pay the money on time, they will cut off your hands and feet and send it to you, and if you don't receive the money in another three days, they will tear up the ticket.
After sending the money, they gave me two months to scrape together the rest of the money and send it. Ay! I can't help it, I have to fight. The old ghost said that, there were tears in the corners of his eyes.
Looking at the old man in front of me, I couldn't help but think of my father, who was far away, and I didn't know how my father's health was. Yin and Yang Bitter Fruit, Yin and Yang Bitter Fruit, you must help me heal my father, in order to repay the kindness of nurturing over the years.
So I left the old ghost behind. Looking at these many people, I can't help but sigh, are you going down? I don't know what mysterious things await me below, and I don't know if this operation is right or wrong, is it worth risking so many lives?
