Chapter 13: Lack of Manpower

The old lady behind me, realizing that there was no way out in front of me, giggled from time to time, as if she had finally had enough fun, and wanted to watch me cry out in pain.

I gasped for breath to calm myself, but the movement of my feet did not stop, and I turned around and entered the corner, banging the door in front of me.

Bang bang bang!

"Guo Xuan! Guo Xuan! Guo Xuan! ”

With the sound of banging on the door, accompanied by a strange noise, the hairs on my body were pierced by the cold air approaching behind me, and goosebumps crawled all over my body.

In an instant, the door was opened, I almost fell inadvertently, Guo Xuan opened the door and saw that it was me who immediately supported him, and before I had time to explain the beginning and end of the front and back, I saw Guo Xuan staring at me with his eyebrows behind him, "Seven days to urge the corpse." ”

Only then did I stand firm with Guo Xuan's support, swallowed my saliva and turned around to see that the things outside the door seemed to be blocked by some barrier.

But it understood that I had disappeared from this area, so it was no longer as patient as it was at the beginning, and kept groping with its faintly black palm.

Only then did I realize that it was a hand, or more precisely, it was like a dry tree trunk, and it didn't hurt for normal people to lose water and shriveled skin when they entered old age.

But the old lady was obviously parasitic about something, the shriveled texture, and from time to time something wriggled on it, as if she was absorbing something, and if she was caught by that thing, the consequences would be chilling to think about.

The old lady seemed to have finally given up, looking at the barrier in front of her, the voice seemed to be able to penetrate people's eardrums, "Do you think you can escape, don't think that someone can ask for you, no matter what, you can't escape a dead word in the end." ”

Hearing this, I looked at Guo Xuan beside me, hoping that he could find a way to solve it for himself.

Guo Xuan sighed secretly, shook his head at me first, a little helpless, I was a little uneasy when I saw his appearance, "Is there really no way?" ”

"No, there is a way, but it is more troublesome, and I didn't expect that someone would use such a big deal to kill you."

I heard it a little foggy, but Guo Xuan said that there was a way to solve it, which was a sigh of relief.

Guo Xuan took out something from his coat pocket in front of me, and looked at the things arranged in front of him, like the kind of formation that is often said, and was secretly surprised.

After a while, I saw the strange old lady outside the door as if she was wrapped in something, constantly twisting and convulsing.

But there was still a grim look on her face, as if the pain had made her unable to make any sound, but her mouth was still saying something with her mouth wide open.

Bang –

As if she was squeezed, the old lady was crushed in front of me, scattered into an unknown black mist, which was compressed into a very small sphere by Guo Xuan's formation, and with a wave of Guo Xuan's hand, the thing was gone.

When I saw that the crisis was resolved, I immediately relaxed completely, and thanked Guo Xuan for a while.

Guo Xuan looked at me as if he had some scruples, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but because I didn't die because of the catastrophe, the stone in my heart fell to the ground and I was relaxed, so I thought about leaving because I was not bothering Guo Xuan more.

It wasn't until I walked to the door that Guo Xuan spoke up.

"You're just leaving?"

I just lifted my footsteps and paused, "You said I had to survive on my own to ......"

"Since I helped you once, why don't you help me once?"

I'm a little puzzled, he's so powerful, where does he need my help.

But since Guo Xuandu had already spoken, he had to turn around and look at him, "How do you want me to help you?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just that there is a shortage of night shifters in the store recently, at least you can make more money than washing dishes in a northeastern local restaurant."

I?

I raised my hand and pointed to myself, going to work in his shop?

I was overjoyed in my heart, and I hurriedly thanked Guo Xuan, I knew that he agreed to accept me when he said so.

"Don't thank you yet, your family asked you to come to me, but I really don't have the ability to help them, and I don't want to get into any big trouble." Guo Xuanqing said clearly: "But I'll give you a bite to eat, and it's still okay to have a place to stay." ”

Hearing him say this, I knew that it was hopeless to ask him to help me go back to save my grandmother and uncle.

But I still have myself, and I will never give up.

After solving the old lady's affairs, I went back to the dormitory and slept well, and the next morning I packed up my things and left with the boss.

The old man in the Northeast didn't say anything, and gave me 700 yuan, after all, I have only been working for half a month.

"The previous 100 yuan will not be deducted from you, and it is not easy for you young people to come out to work, so let's save some money." The uncle smiled and said, "If you develop one day, don't forget me." ”

"Thank you."

I sincerely thanked the old man and came to Guo Xuan's shop with my luggage.

When he arrived at the store, Guo Xuan lazily leaned on the counter and smoked, still wearing the big sunglasses on his face.

I looked at his blood-red eyes, and I thought that he was wearing glasses because he was afraid of being seen.

"Don't look at me with your sympathetic eyes, that's because you don't know how powerful Lao Tzu's eyes are."

Guo Xuan threw the melon seeds in his hand to the ground and said coldly: "There is an attic upstairs, you can live in the store." ”

"If you come to buy supplies, there is a room in the courtyard for them, so you can just give them to them."

"At night, hang up the white lanterns in the alley, then close the door of the shop, and if someone knocks on the door, don't open it."

"There's another one, which was added recently, if a guy in a sweater comes in, kick him out with a broom."
