Chapter 18: The Gift of a Rainy Night

I am completely unfamiliar with the old evil, and it is the first time I have heard Jiang Shaoyan talk about this person. I wonder if he will be a SWAT officer like the old cat on the iron donkey?

I looked at the Iron Donkey, like Mary, and wondered how they would react. I thought that both of them were old qualifications, especially the iron donkey, and if they couldn't hear the old evil, they would take the attitude of an old friend who had not been seen for a long time.

But they were just as strange as I was. This makes me unsure who the old evil is.

Jiang Shaoyan was not in a hurry to explain anything, put away his wry smile again, and changed the topic to say something else.

He gave all four of us a clear division of labor. He asked Iron Donkey and Mary to contact the police to determine the weapons and equipment for the next voyage, and then let me go to a place at night to collect insects there with the magic tripod, and he himself had to prepare some gifts.

The four of us, except for the things that Iron Donkey and Mary wanted, looked normal, and Jiang Shaoyan's task for me and Jiang Shaoyan was strange just by listening to it. Especially Jiang Shaoyan, what kind of gifts are you going to prepare?

But Jiang Shaoyan looked at his watch and said that the time was just right, so let's go our separate ways.

I left the hotel in pure confusion. I was not familiar with Haike City, so I had to call up the map on my mobile phone to check it. The place given by Jiang Shaoyan is on the outskirts of the city, very desolate, and even the map is not very clear.

I'm too lazy to calculate the route, so I have to stop a taxi and let it take me there. But here's the problem, as soon as the taxi driver heard that I was going to that place, two cars refused to take them, one said that the shift was going to be handed over immediately, and the other said that the car broke down and needed to be repaired.

And when I got to the third car, I learned to be smart and made up my mind not to get out of the car, the driver had a sad face, and the boss drove the car reluctantly.

I also asked him why he didn't want to go. The driver shook his head and said nothing.

After more than half an hour, the driver pulled me to the place, and he took the money and left. And I couldn't help but frown as I looked at this.

This can only be called a place, there is no trace of human habitation, small trees grow sparsely, shrubs are quite lush, and the weeds in them must be more than a man tall.

I came here alone at night, and I felt a little bit of courage. But Jiang Shaoyan made it clear that I had to use the magic tripod to get some worms back.

If I fool him and go back empty-handed, or go somewhere else to catch some caterpillars or something, it's hard to fool around.

I made up my mind to stay here for two hours with a raincoat and try my luck.

I also came with a flashlight, so I used it to illuminate it, and walked cautiously inside. I didn't want to go too deep, so I buried it nearby, but I never found a relatively open place. I don't want to be tired of pulling weeds and clearing the open space to come out. Just walked and walked, and in the end, let alone three or five miles deeper.

I finally chose a high ground, because now that the rain is getting heavier and the water on the ground is very serious, I put the ding away and hide aside.

There was a crooked neck tree here, and I leaned on it just in time, and I did the same, but there was a big thunderclap in the sky that woke me up.

I know it's not wise to lean on a tree on a rainy day, otherwise the thunder will hit the tree, and I won't be overpowered by the way?

I cursed and walked forward, squatting on the ground and suffering.

At this time, I can't smoke, I've been so stuffy for half an hour, and I haven't seen any poisonous insects, I feel worried, and my heart says will it be related to the rain, the insects think the road is muddy, but it's coming?

I couldn't help but mutter, and suddenly, a bush on my left hand side rattled.

Supposedly, this should be a good thing, indicating that there is a reaction, but my heart is beating even more and I am still standing up. When I left, I borrowed the dagger of the iron donkey for self-defense, and now I hurriedly took it out.

I don't think it's like a bug, maybe it's some beast.

The bushes didn't bother me too much, and after less than three or five seconds, a man in a black raincoat came out of it.

He was carrying a bag and a flashlight, which he hadn't used before, but now he turned it on and took a picture of me.

I was so frightened that I asked, "Who?" ”

The man laughed, pointed to himself and said, "Brother, you invited me to eat coconut rice, and you forgot it so quickly?" ”

At this time, I also shone a flashlight on him and recognized him. I am very sensitive to this dealer who sells Danding, because he gives me a feeling that I can't understand and guess.

I believe that the two of us did not meet by chance on this big night, and he came to look for me on purpose. As for how he knew I was here, I don't know.

He didn't show the slightest hostility, ignored my sword, and strode over.

I noticed that he was quite addicted to smoking, so I pulled my raincoat and hat forward, and took advantage of this gap to light another cigarette and smoke it.

We couldn't help but talk, and I wasn't interested in watching him smoke silently, so I asked, what is he looking for me? Do you want me to talk to that mysterious shadow video again?

The man who sold Danding waved his hand and said that I invited him to dinner last time, and in order to express his gratitude, he specially sent me a gift this time.

He also took his backpack off. The backpack must have been waterproof, and he didn't hesitate to put it in the stagnant water, and squatted and rummaged through it.

I had a gut feeling that he wouldn't hurt me, so I took the dagger and watched curiously, wondering what he was giving me.

I had a guess that if I invited him to dinner, would he buy me something to eat? But when he took the gift out, I was stunned.

It's a rat the size of a rabbit. The rat was groggy and looked as if it had been medicated.

In front of me, the seller of Danding inspected the rat and said that it was just right, and suddenly made his hand into a paw and scratched at the mouse's neck.

I found out that he was a real person, and as soon as I caught it, I heard a click on the mouse's neck, and it actually broke.

This effort made me vigilant again, and the expression on my face must have changed.

As if he hadn't seen it, the dealer touched the blood from the corner of the dead mouse's mouth, pushed it to me, and said put it away!

I don't want it anymore, I wanted to refuse, and in total, he used to sell Danding, could it be that this dead mouse is a finished Danding?

I hesitated to take the Danding, and stared at the dealer, at this moment, I especially want to know what his name is, otherwise after these two contacts, I don't even know what the other party's name is, I can't tell.

I asked. The dealer laughed, stopped smoking, and spat directly and spit the cigarette away.

He shook his head and said that he didn't want to tell me his name, but he changed the topic again, pointed to the magic tripod buried in the ground and said, "Brother, don't toss tonight, I know very well what Jiang Shaoyan thinks, there is indeed a treasure here, there is a millipede that has been hiding two heads, he wants to give this insect as a gift to the old evil, but he is embarrassed to ......"

The dealer pointed to his backpack and said, "When you went to sea two days ago, I had good luck and took it for myself, and now I have practiced Danding." ”

I felt the urge to sweat, not because I cared about the so-called two-headed millipede, but because the traffickers knew about our every move, and it was terrifying.

The dealer saw that I was thinking about something, he didn't want to stay longer, picked up his backpack, turned around to leave, and left a sentence, let me go back quickly, as long as I gave the Dan Rat to Jiang Shaoyan, he sure didn't care about the two-headed millipede, and he would be happy to smoke if he didn't get it.

I didn't know what to say, but as the dealers left, I counted them together while closing the top.

One thing is for sure, there must be a very powerful bug in the rat, should I dissect it and take a look?

But I remember that time I went to the ghost lake, we dissected the dead corpses, and after digging out the golden beetles from inside, they died quickly, and I was afraid that if I blindly opened the Danding, I would kill the precious insects inside.

I had no choice but to suppress this thought, clean it up, and hurriedly flashed people.

From here back to the hotel, it was difficult to take a taxi, I walked on the road for a long time with a mouse, and even the raincoat could not stop it, and the rain went in through the gap, and my clothes were all wet.

Finally, I met a passing car, at a glance it was the running line, my evaluation, this kind of driver is an "outlaw", in order to make money, the courage is big, the driver doesn't care what mouse I carry. I'll give me a little more money, and he'll get me to my destination safely.

When I got back to my room, I found that the others hadn't come back yet, and I looked at the mouse in my hand, and it was also wet.

I'm afraid that if I don't deal with it, don't let it stink this night. In addition, when it was drenched in rain, it also had a terrible smell on its body.

I went to the toilet and washed it with clean water, dried it with an iron donkey's towel, and found a place to hang it.

When I was so busy, I climbed into my bed and fell asleep.

It is estimated that when it was almost dawn, there was the sound of the door opening, and some people whispered. I was drowsy and too lazy to get up.

I thought they would go to bed when they came back, but they found the rats in the toilet and quickly walked to my bed.

Jiang Shaoyan's words came first, "Xiao Leng, where did this rat come from?" ”

I opened my eyes and wanted to look up at Jiang Shaoyan to reply, but as soon as I raised my head, I found that there was someone behind Jiang Shaoyan, and he jumped on the bed very unceremoniously.

His expression was cold, his eyes were gloomy, and I was shocked when he moved his face forward like this.

I snorted and stepped back again, only to have the bedside table above me, and hit my head.

This man was an old cat, and he shook his head strangely, and after a few huffs, he pointed to the toilet and said, "Dan rat! Who gave it? ”

I rubbed my head vigorously, and I was also annoyed by the old cat's rudeness, and when he asked, I didn't want to be in a hurry to answer anything.

I told him to get out of bed quickly. The old cat was disobedient, moved to the side, and squatted beside the bed.

In fact, Jiang Shaoyan and the old cat already knew the answer, and after the atmosphere was silent for a while, Jiang Shaoyan smiled and said It's really funny, he, who is an uncle, actually came to participate.

I wasn't too awake yet, but my uncle's words were like thunder, which completely woke me up.

What did I say in my heart? Is the dealer related to Jiang Shaoyan? Or is it just a relational name?
