Chapter 116: Scheming
Hearing this, Li An nodded slightly, the cat ghost stole money, and while taking away the living beings, he would take away the money and property of the deceased. The best way to avoid being coveted by cats is not to carry money with you.
Li An glanced at Lao Huang, the corners of his mouth rose and smiled slightly, and said. "Instead of saving others, you should think about how you can save yourself."
"Self-help?" Lao Huang was stunned for a moment, but soon he reacted, and his face changed and exclaimed. "I took precautions last night and wasn't hurt, but what did my brother see?"
"Beware? So what is this. Li An pouted and walked in front of Lao Huang, and ripped off half of his sleeve robe in his puzzled gaze.
Lao Huang did not stop Li An's movements, and lost his sleeve robe to cover his arms and reveal them. He looked at his arm carefully and frowned slightly, but found no wounds.
But just as he was about to speak, his pupils contracted violently. "This ...... It won't be! “
Li An nodded casually and said. "It was left by the cat ghost, and it should have been accidentally obtained."
There was a small and unsmellable red spot on Lao Huang's arm, if he hadn't been touched by Li An like this, he wouldn't have noticed it even if he took a shower and cleaned up his body.
"Don't doubt it, if my guess is right, you already have some symptoms in this arm. For example, numbness and occasional spasms. Li An said calmly.
Hearing Li An say this, Lao Huang's mouth trembled slightly, as Li An said, he had all these symptoms. It's just that he didn't care about it until now, thinking that it was the natural reaction of his body after staying up all night.
"Little brother save me." Lao Huang fell directly to the ground and looked at Li An in fear.
"How to save it?" Li An said calmly with a smile on his face.
"How to save." Lao Huang's face stiffened when he muttered to himself, and of course he knew that the sentence asked by Li An was not literal. But he is a grass person, and the copper plates on his body add up to only fifty, even if these mundane things are enough, this little brother who is obviously an immortal cultivator will definitely not look down on it.
"I only have a worthless life, and if I take something even less valuable to save my life, I ......" Lao Huang sighed heavily, and the rest of the words did not continue.
Li An smiled slightly, sat back on the bed without hurrying, and then said casually. "Tell me, what's going on with these monsters you guys are talking about?"
Hearing Li An say this, Lao Huang's eyes flashed with hope, "The cause is that two years ago, it is said that a homeless person developed a certain drug, and a wild cat mutated under the accidental ingestion of it. There were only two or three cats at first, and many forces in Dugu City didn't care. However, as time went on, things became uncontrollable, and these xenos formed a large group. “
"They come out en masse every 10 days, and their purpose is to hurt people and take money."
"Why hasn't such a big movement gotten out?" Li An frowned.
Lao Huang shook his head and said. "It's just because a gray industry was born in it, and everyone, including the lower classes, deliberately concealed it. Of course, this matter has been circulating on a small scale for two years. “
"Grey industry? I see. Li Ang sneered, Lao Huang didn't say it explicitly, but he also guessed a rough idea.
It is said that the people of the Great Wilderness have 800 hearts and eyes, and now it seems to be true. Relying on the existence of cat ghosts, there should be many people who have reaped the benefits. This is to make a fortune from the dead, bring those who do not know the truth, eradicate them by the hands of cats and ghosts, and then seize the treasures that accompany him.
This dead man's wealth can be said to benefit both parties, and the cat ghost can hurt the innocent more unscrupulously and take away the belongings he has with him. And the people of Dugu City can pack the rest and take it away. This also explains why the local forces in Dugu City were closed last night.
"So yesterday you brought me to Dugu City, but you didn't tell me about it, and you wanted to do it." Li An squinted his eyes and said.
Hearing this, Lao Huang's body trembled, and there was a kind of panic after the trick was exposed, he didn't dare to face Li An's gaze, and lowered his head silently.
"The villain was fascinated for a while, and begged the fairy to spare his life." Lao Huang knelt on the ground and trembled, and at the same time, his address to Ang Li also changed.
"It's been two years, and this industry should have killed a lot of innocent people. You say, "You are ready to put me to death and take my money, what reason shall I have to save you?" The corners of Li An's mouth rose and said casually.
Lao Huang's expression was gloomy, and there was a high probability that Ang Li would fend for himself when he said this. If it weren't for my own ghostly mind, I should have come back last night, and I might have been able to escape.
Ang Lee didn't speak, and Lao Huang didn't speak. After half a ring, Lao Huang slowly got up, and the whole person was very decadent, as if he had accepted his fate.
"I can give you a chance to survive, and even let you have no worries about food and clothing, but I want your life." Li An said suddenly.
Lao Huang wanted to leave in disgrace, but after hearing this, he was stunned, he looked up at Li An and said excitedly. "My cheap life is not worth much, if it weren't for the fact that I still have a wife and children at home, I should have had enough of the suffering in the world. If Shangxian can let me live a few more years and settle down at home, I am willing to let me go to Daoshan and go down to the oil pot with this life. “
"Go up the knife mountain and go down to the oil pot? Hehe. Ang Lee chuckled, many people didn't feel anything when they said this, but Ang Lee had seen it with his own eyes. The terrible screams there are still unforgettable.
"You are not a mortal to this point, after today you go to a place and wait for someone." Li An said casually.
"Where?"
"Peach Blossom Temple." Ando Lee.
"Sir, are you talking about the Peach Blossom Temple in the North Abyss?" Lao Huang said uncertainly.
Li An nodded, "The road is a little far, maybe you can't wait for this person in your life." Maybe she's here on your way. “
"Shangxian is not afraid that I will run away?" Lao Huang was puzzled.
Ang Lee shook his head and said with a smile. "People have a choice, I'll give you a choice. There's a golden ticket here, and you can choose to run away after I renew your life. And here, there is also a flying charm. “
Li An took out a brand new rune paper from his bosom and continued. "If you wait for that person, you can ask her for a chance with this certificate, which may allow you and even your children and grandchildren to enter the fairy gate. Of course, if you don't wait, this ascension charm is no different from waste paper. “
After Li An finished speaking, he looked at Lao Huang quietly, this is indeed a multiple-choice question. I don't know what Lao Huang will choose Ang Lee, maybe he will say his answer for sure, but Ang Lee won't believe it either.
Lao Huang looked at the rune paper in Li An's hand, hesitated for a moment, took it, and then put it in his arms. He was about to say something, and Li Ang preemptively said.
"Needless to say, the choice is up to you. Since I promised to renew your life, it has nothing to do with the choice, and I am also gambling. “
