Chapter 4: Three Years

Time is like water, years are like songs, and those three years have finally passed in weirdness, pain, helplessness and suffering.

On the night when the three-year covenant was about to come, I, Zhao Haipeng, and Zhao Shuihe returned to the dot of the whole story, in front of the small stall that used to eat barbecue.

Unlike the last time I came, I have already spent a lot of money to take down the whole stall, and I have also built a shed outside to shelter from the wind and rain.

I was not interested in the specific management of the stall, so I handed over here, as well as Luweiju on Heihu Street, and a family of the Hui family to my younger brother Ah Si and his daughter-in-law Chen Shimei.

Because I knew that today was a special day, I didn't let them open the whole day, and in the evening, according to Zhao Haipeng's meaning, I dispersed the employees, and then lit a red candle as a light source on a table and chair in the middle, and burned the birthdays and lives of the three of us with this candle to make a "signal".

This rule of burning paper slips with candles, Zhao Haipeng said that it was a "signal" for negotiating with ghosts in ancient times among the nine streams. As long as the candle rises and the figure burns, the old cat demon will naturally follow the smoke and dust to find us.

Although he said this, the thought of facing the eerie cat demon who was urging me to die still carried a strong sense of apprehension and uneasiness in my heart, and in that uneasiness, in order to relieve our emotions, we took a pot of hot wine from this barbecue stall and chatted while talking.

Although Zhao Haipeng, Zhao Shuihe and I have always been in a relationship of looking up and not looking down in the past three years, every time we sit together, we have endless topics to talk about.

Among them, there are happy things, sad things, bickering things, and helpless things.

After three glasses of wine, I asked Zhao Haipeng with a smile by the heat and red candlelight: "Brother Zhao! How long will your marriage with Reporter Cai take a while?

Listening to my question, Zhao Haipeng's face changed a little, and then said, "This ...... Okra had a case to interview, so she left temporarily. ”

"Oops!" Zhao Shuihe said with a kind of anger:

"This woman is really, what kind of case do she run when she is about to get married, she has been working for so many years, she has no fame, no income, and she is bleeding every day, how boring, it is better to let Lao Huo arrange a position. ”

Shuihe counted down other people's fiancΓ©es in front of Lao Zhao, which naturally made Zhao Haipeng's face blue and purple.

However, Lao Zhao is good at everything, but he is too bad at refutation, so after thinking about it for a long time, he had to turn his head and ask me, "Hey...... Isn't the third girl, isn't the second girl pregnant?How are you doing?!"

"It's almost life!" I nodded, and hurriedly helped Zhao Haipeng to relieve the siege: "The second girl and her brother are going around the child's affairs every day, what diapers, baby cream, lactation promoter, goat milk powder, are about to turn the home into a war warehouse." I even thought of several names for the children. ”

"Have you thought of the name?!" Zhao Shuihe said curiously: "I'll listen to it." ”

"Hehe, no serious name. I waved my hand and said, "I found a lot of dictionaries, and I went up the mountain to ask Master Yuantong, but the names were childish and ridiculous, saying that it was to be called Maomao, Doudou or Aiai, and the whole thing was the same as the dog name." ”

"Love love ......" Zhao Haipeng nodded suddenly, and then said: "This name is good! Children are the hearts of parents, Huo Aiai, I feel good." ”

As soon as I heard Lao Zhao's words, I was interested, and then I stretched out my hand, slapped the table and said, "Okay! Borrow your auspicious words!

"This ......" As soon as I heard my casual words become my child's life, Zhao Haipeng was a little anxious.

He hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I said it casually, it's not appropriate, right?!"

"What's inappropriate!" I slapped the table and said, "You are my eldest brother, and even your life was given to me, it is so suitable!"

"......" Zhao Haipeng's face was very embarrassed when he heard this, and then he smiled and didn't say anything.

After that, we talked about some topics from all over the world, and those topics were all about trying to relieve the pressure and heaviness of tonight, but while chatting, Zhao Haipeng's eyes suddenly widened, and his mouth lost his usual smile.

Then Lao Zhao stretched out his scarred palm, pointed to the candle on our table, and said in an urgent tone: "Should come...... It's finally here. ”

With Zhao Haipeng's words, the candle that we were sitting in the middle of the table suddenly jumped a few times, and then completely extinguished.

At the same time, the periphery of the shanty where we were located suddenly lit up with green lights and eerie singing.

The song was staccato and staccato as if it were singing: "Oh dear friends, let's meet and send us to the crematorium, and we will all burn to ashes." You and I are a bunch, no one knows anyone, and they are all sent to the countryside to make fertilizer ......"

When this mourning-like song ended, the rickety figure of Wu Demon Lao finally appeared in front of us.

Probably because of the end of this guy's tragedy, Wu Youlao looked much younger, he was still carrying a broken lantern in his hand, and for some reason, there was a little black cat on his shoulder.

Seeing Wu Demon Lao, each of our expressions became inexplicably nervous, although he was laughing, although I knew that the money I was fighting for had exceeded the income we had promised, but I just couldn't help but be afraid.

After all, he is a cat demon, a six-hundred-year-old cat demon.

When Wu Demon Lao sat down, I smiled at him, and then casually threw out a check and said, "Six million, if it's not enough, I'll open another six million, okay?"

In the face of my "boldness", Wu Demon Lao looked at me very calmly, like looking at a funny actor.

"You won!" "You won!" Wu Demon told me first, and then asked, "But do you know why you won?!"

"Need to know?!" I said.

"Maybe!" Wu Demon Lao picked up the check I threw out casually, looked at it, and then threw the check back to me and said, "If you don't want to hear it, I won't say it!"

"Then you'd better talk about it!" I nodded, with the relaxation and vigilance of the rest of my life, and added, "But this is what you said voluntarily, not what I begged you to say." ”

"Okay!" Wu Demon Elder nodded, and then told me with a sourness: "The reason why you can win your life is because ...... Your life has been changed. ”

"Who can change my life?!" I still sneered. But after that smile, I froze.

Because of the person who can change my life, I only think of one!

Zhao Haipeng!

When I followed that thought and looked at Lao Zhao in shock, Wu Demon Lao said to me in an unwilling voice: "That's right, it's your eldest brother Lao Zhao, he helped you change your life!

When Wu Demon Lao asked, Zhao Haipeng nodded with a relieved face.

At this point, there is no need to hide anything.

After a short silence, I asked Zhao Haipeng with gratitude and curiosity, "How did you do it?!"

"Simple!" Zhao Haipeng said with a wry smile: "According to ancient superstitions, if you want to change a person's trajectory in this world, you must let this person undergo a radical change. And the changes I made you make...... It is to forcibly inject another soul into your body. ”

"My ...... Blade Spirit?!" I was stunned.

Zhao Haipeng nodded, and then said: "Because you have two souls in your body now, your life is no longer your own, so in this way, your life will also change, but whether it becomes good or bad is the result of your personal efforts......"

Listening to Zhao Haipeng's personal admission, I suddenly said in my heart: "Find the sword spirit of the Hui family to suppress the evil...... It turns out that you still have plans for this layer, but why didn't you get that thing into my body sooner......"

Before I could finish speaking, Zhao Haipeng interrupted me and told me: "That's just a last resort! After the sword spirit enters your body, how big the burden is, what will you become, it's not that I didn't see it, I didn't want to use it, and ......"

Suddenly, Lao Zhao stopped talking again, and like that, he didn't seem to want to continue to say anything.
