Chapter 5: The fish died and the net broke?

Who the hell is this person!

If you don't go to the hospital after suffering such a serious injury, what are you going to buy here

The stuff that the pregnant woman bought also surprised me. She took the iron ball from the shelf and came to the cashier to ask me to check out.

What does she buy at this time for the iron sand balls that can only be used to clean up the kitchen utensils

I couldn't help saying, "Sister, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital..."

The woman with a big belly glanced at me, her face was a little blue, her eyes were cold, her voice was a little stern and said, "You just came here?"

I casually said: "I just arrived soon, help to see the store..."

"Okay, check out quickly, I'm still waiting to go back to clean the skin!" The pregnant woman's tone and attitude are not very good, and she doesn't know where I provoke her.

However, her words made me even more puzzled.

Scalping

What kind of skin does the latte ball brush

This iron sand ball was only a few dollars, but she took out a "big bill" and put it on the cash register, making the corner of my eye twitch.

Tiandi Bank... Mingchao!

The big-bellied woman was about to leave with the iron sand ball. I hurriedly called her, and said a little displeased: "Sister, don't joke with me at night? Can this thing be used as money?"

Although it doesn't matter for a few dollars, I don't want people to treat me as a fool!

The big-bellied woman took a deep look at me, and suddenly a faint green light flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, this look made me shudder.

My heart was beating wildly, looking at the big belly woman in horror.

The experience of the past few days has made me know something that is beyond common sense of ordinary people. I suddenly understand the scene of this woman touching the ground with blood behind her toes.

This woman with a big belly is not a person, it is probably... a ghost!

Seeing my horrified look, the woman with a big belly grinned, her mouth full of fangs, her face hideous, and she was about to rush to bite me.

"Ah~" I couldn't help screaming, staggering back and almost sitting on the ground.

At this moment, the middle-aged man in the vest walked into the convenience store with a cigarette in his mouth, and slapped the belly-bellied woman directly on the head.

"Fuck off!"

The big-bellied woman seemed to be afraid of the middle-aged man, shrank her head, and hurriedly left the convenience store.

Then, the middle-aged man took out a bottle of beer from the container, opened it and placed it in front of me, and said casually: "Drink something and be shocked!"

The horror in my heart hadn't calmed down, so I tremblingly grabbed the bottle, and after taking a big gulp, I said with a trembling voice, "The woman just now... was it a ghost?"

"What do you say!"

The middle-aged man didn't directly respond to my question, he just changed the subject and said: "Let's talk about it, how did that old guy do him so bad?"

I took a deep breath, calmed my mind, and talked about the things at the ruined temple in detail.

After listening to me, the middle-aged man frowned slightly to look at the contents of the blue cloth bag in my arms.

I gave him the blue cloth, and when he saw the longevity lock, his brow raised. When he saw the complicated pattern inside the sheepskin scroll, he reacted the same as the old beggar, hurriedly closed it and returned it to me.

However, he was not as frightened as the old beggar, but had a strange expression on his face.

He asked me where the contents of the blue cloth bag came from. I simply said everything about the previous few days, and then carefully asked if he knew about my grandpa.

The old beggar said that my grandfather and I were not related by blood, so I still didn't want to believe it.

"Zhou Zhenyao! I do know some things about him. He was a ruthless character in the early years. It is no secret that killing brothers and fathers. He did not marry in his life and has no children left, so you are definitely not his grandson..."

The middle-aged man was smoking a cigarette, and leisurely told me something about grandpa.

Especially when he talked about things in Lingnan many years ago, his face became even more weird.

In his words, a large tomb on the Lingnan side was forcibly opened by the grandfather's group many years ago, causing the ground under the tomb to surge and killing the entire village.

No one knows what Grandpa and they got from that ancient tomb, only know that Grandpa and those people have lived in seclusion since then.

But over the years, those people who forcibly opened the tomb together with grandpa all disappeared or died strangely. The goddess was one of those people back then.

Regarding the matters in Lingnan, the middle-aged man said very vaguely, and there were many places where he said nothing.

I was not in the mood to continue to ask questions, and I felt sad, but the only thing I cared about most was the whereabouts of my parents.

When I asked this question, the middle-aged man simply shook his head in response and said: "I don't know, after the old guy recovers, you can ask him! He knows more about your parents."

I said so, but I can feel that this middle-aged man must know something about my parents, but he doesn't know why he doesn't want to tell me!

When will the old beggar be able to heal his wounds? Where is it now

The middle-aged man said vaguely: "The old guy was planted this time, and he was very unwilling to find a helper. I don't know when he will come back! If you have nowhere to go, stay with me for now!"

Now I am truly homeless, penniless, and even eating is a problem.

However, I haven't forgotten the big-bellied woman just now, or it is more appropriate to call it a female ghost. My instinct tells me that this convenience store is weird.

"Why? Afraid?"

The middle-aged man looked at me with a smile but a smile, and said, “This store is indeed a bit different. As long as you follow the rules, it’s actually fine. There are some things that I see a lot, I’m not surprised. …"

Before he finished speaking, he frowned slightly and looked in the direction of the convenience store gate.

"Ding Ding Ding..."

The string of wind chimes at the entrance of the convenience store swayed rapidly, and a cold gust of wind blew in from the outside. In the dark night, there seemed to be people shaking outside, but they did not enter the convenience store.

The middle-aged man drank his cigarette, squinted his eyes to look at the door of the convenience store, and said blankly: "I won't trouble you, and don't touch me. Don't play this kind of tricks, and dare to enter the store. One step, chopped your leg!"

The dim figure at the door trembled, and then there was a long sigh, that was Grandpa's voice.

"Little Rock, go with Grandpa!"

It was indeed Grandpa's voice, I subconsciously stood up and walked towards the door of the store.

At this time, the middle-aged man held my shoulders and said coldly to the shop door: "Old fox, this kid has already blocked you from a disaster, but will you not let him go? Murder can't just nodded," For the sins I made back then, I will pay the rest by myself! My shop has recently been short of staff. This kid has lived here for a while, so don't harass him!"

Grandpa was silent for a while outside, and said in a deep voice, "Give me the sheepskin roll in his arms!"

The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and said with a cold snort: "The thief's heart is not dead, sooner or later there will be retribution! This thing should be his, Zhou Zhenyao, you still think about how to escape that person's pursuit!"

"Zong Yi, do you want to intervene?" Grandpa's voice outside became cold and severe.

The middle-aged man sneered and said, "Don’t think of me as you do. I just think this kid is pitiful. It doesn’t matter who you live or die in Lingnan, it’s up to me! But, let’s go ahead, this kid enters. After this store, you are protected by me, and you dare to do something with him here. Think about the consequences. You should be very clear about my methods!"

There was another silence outside, and then the figure drifted away. Grandpa's voice came faintly: "A month later, I will come to pick up the sheepskin roll. If you don't give it, the fish will die and the net will break..."

This middle-aged man named Zong Yi squeezed out the cigarette butt, hummed and said, "The fish is dead and the net is broken? Are you qualified?"

I wanted to chase it out and asked my grandpa some questions in person, but Zong Yi stopped him.

"What's the rush, I didn't hear him say that he will come again in a month! Go, arrange your accommodation first, and you can stay in my shop for a while!"

Zong Yi simply pulled me out of the door of the convenience store, came to a community a few hundred meters away from the convenience store, and knocked on the door of an apartment.

After a while, the apartment door opened, and a young girl with messy hair and a mask appeared in front of us.

"Which bastard... Oh, it's you, Uncle Zong, what's going on here this big night? Well, it's not the time to collect the rent!"

The girl was a little annoyed, but after seeing Zong Yi, she immediately became pleased, turning her face faster than turning a book. (End of this chapter)
