Volume 4, Demon Crow Demon Palace_Chapter 3, Wanli Help
Standing at the intersection of the thirtieth year, I didn't understand the horror of this thing that year. Time doesn't seem to have left too many traces on me, and since the spirit family accepted that mysterious "gift", time has stopped flowing in me, so much so that as long as I wipe my face clean, shave my beard and walk on the road, I will be called big brother by the little girl.
Pinched his somewhat thick beard and slightly tired face, and sighed softly, "It's good if you don't get old all the time." ”
When I changed into clean clothes and lay down in bed to get ready to rest, something was moving in the corner. I closed my eyes and didn't react, and the thing crept down the wall, all the way to the edge of the bed, and then up my neck. The skin can feel like a small thing, possibly a spider or something, which is not uncommon in this kind of small hotel. I stretched out my hand and pressed it, but I didn't hold it down, and it was empty, and the person was tired and didn't want to open his eyes, so I used a little force to catch the insects that climbed up my neck, but this second time I pressed it and it fell empty!
Missing the bug twice made me feel that something was wrong. I felt the bug crawl down my neck to the base of my ear, and then there was something sharp and hard like fangs rubbing behind my ear, I saw the opportunity to point at the bug, but I didn't expect the bug to be very slippery, and actually dodged my fingers again, and ran down the ear to the back of the neck.
I opened my eyes slightly, and then I felt that the worm that ran to the back of my neck bit me, and the neck hurt slightly, and then a wave of drowsiness hit......
After I closed my eyes and fell asleep, the door was opened, and several people came in from outside, and after watching my bedside for a while, one of them came up and tried to grab my hand. At this moment, I suddenly opened my eyes, and the frightened person who came up was stunned, and hurriedly retreated, and at the same time the door closed with a "bang".
I straightened up, slapped my neck, and held a small black spider up with my fingers.
"Sleeping spider, you want to stun me with this kind of gadget, you look down on me too much. Say, "Who are you?" Why do you deal with me? "The little spider I am holding in my hand is an earth-like insect, called the sleeping spider, as the name suggests, it secretes a venom with a strong paralyzing effect, and it will also work on humans, and the onset time is fast, and the effect is very strong. When bitten by it, an adult man usually sleeps for about twenty hours. There are some third-rate individual customers in the circle who will train this sleeping spider to sneak into bites at night, and after putting people down, these individual customers can steal things or do things that are not on the table.
But for me now, the effect of this sleeping spider venom is very weak.
Several people were very nervous when they saw that I found out, so I got up from the bed and shouted, "Don't say yes, do you?" It seems that it is not possible to do it without doing it. ”
I was about to rush up and start my hand when the door suddenly opened, and a man stood in the doorway and shouted at me, "Wait, little mountain." ”
The voice was somewhat familiar, and I paused slightly when I heard it, and when I looked back, I was surprised to find that it was Uncle Jia standing at the door.
"How are you?" I asked, surprised.
He came into the house, waved his hand, and the four men in the house withdrew, and there were only two of us left in the room, and he looked at me and said, "I made them do this, and you can explain it." ”
Uncle A looks a lot older, and the two most changing stages in his life are when boys are developing and men aging. Uncle A is not too young, I haven't seen him in the past few years, and I obviously feel that he is a lot older when I meet him this time. His hair was gray, especially his temples were completely white, and the wrinkles on his face were deep and dense, but the biggest feeling was the twilight aura that emanated from his body. When a person has a sense of twilight in his body, he will look old even if he is still young.
"Sit down." Seeing that the other party was Uncle A, my heart relaxed a little, motioned for him to sit down, and then poured a glass of wine, but he waved his hand and said, "I didn't drink or smoke since last year." ”
I was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Have you started to maintain your health?" ”
"The age has gone up, it can't be compared to the past, in the past few years, I obviously feel that it is not as good as before, and I am not focused when I practice, I used to be tired of boxing for a day, but now I don't want to move for half a day. But......" His eyes were still bright and sharp, and I could read the surprise in his eyes, "I had heard of it before, but it was still surprising to see it with my own eyes, and time seemed to disappear from you......"
I knew what he meant, so I shook my head with a wry smile and said, "What? Do you want to catch me and eat my meat because I don't look old? ”
Uncle Jia immediately shook his head and said: "Naturally, there is something important to find you, but I am afraid that you will not agree, so I used some more extreme methods, don't be surprised." ”
"What the hell is going on?" I heard that there seemed to be a deep meaning between his words, and immediately restrained his joking face and said seriously.
"Sha Lao is dying." After Jiayi finished speaking, the light bulb above his head shook in the wind, reflecting his flickering face.
"Sha Lao's body is wrong again?" This news didn't shock me so strongly, after all, when I first met Sha Lao, he was in a state where he was about to finish his life.
"This time is different from the past!" Uncle Jia obviously saw that I didn't realize the seriousness of his words, and immediately shouted, "This time is different from the past, although Sha Lao's health has deteriorated in the past, our medical team still has a way to return to heaven, but this time Sha Lao's deadline is approaching, and the medical team has declared that there is nothing to do." Mr. Tao and I thought of many ways, but to no avail. If there is no big reversal, it is not surprising that Sha Lao will die within half a month. And because of some of the special methods we used before, Sha Lao's soul will definitely be taken away by the judge, and it will not be able to be kept. ”
Old man Tao couldn't help it, it seemed that the situation was much more serious than I imagined, and Uncle Jia's last words surprised me. Generally speaking, even if you were a general, a high-ranking official and nobleman during your lifetime, and you sank into the underworld when you died, and you didn't know each other and waited for the ghost to come to catch you, the judge would not come to collect the soul in person. I don't know what they have done, Sha Lao's soul will actually attract the judge to collect the soul in person.
"What's the matter with me? How can I help? "It seems that I have a premonition of something, the purpose of Uncle Jiayi's appearance here and the purpose of looking for me should not be simple.
"Do you want me to go back to his shift?" I'm a hundred unwilling, and if Uncle A says so, I will definitely refuse. With my current strength, he and his people may not be able to catch me.
"We have that in mind, but I don't think you agree. So we want to ask you for a favor and make something possible. "Uncle A is thousands of miles away, and he came to the corner of the border to ask me for help? Are Team Zero dead?
"What's the busy?" Although I have a lot of thoughts in my heart, I am still quite calm on my face.
"We would like to ask you to help bring something back from Raven Ridge Fort, this thing can help Sha Lao get out of trouble temporarily and buy us time."
I've heard of this place, it's not a good place. Now it has been abandoned, but because it is too evil, no one has dared to go deeper, and no one has dared to open a mountain in Yaling Fort.
"Raven Ridge Fort? Is there anything in that evil place that can help Sha Lao? I asked curiously.
"You first say whether you agree or not, if you don't agree, I can't disclose the specific situation to you." Uncle A is so cautious about me, which shows the importance of this matter.
I hesitated, in fact, there have been many people in the circle who want to ask me for help in the past few years, the Ling family, the fat man's side, but I almost ignored it, and pursued my secrets. But Sha Lao is kind to me after all, and without Sha Lao's help when he dealt with the Ling family, he might not have been able to succeed in the end. So I smoked a cigarette and hesitated for a while before saying, "Okay, I'll promise first, and you can tell me what's going on." ”
Little did I know at the time that my promise would bring me back to reality......
