Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 449: The Black Heart Merchant
After solving the problem at the museum, my mind was filled with the last words of the leader, and I was in a very heavy mood.
The T-shirt guy said hello and left, and didn't tell me where he was going.
While Li Mazi and I were getting ready to go back, we received a call from Song Zhong's wife from Snake Mountain Gorge Village.
“Sister, what can I do for you?” I frowned and asked, "Is there something wrong in my mind?
“No, no...” said Song Zhong's wife quickly.
I was relieved to ask her if there was anything else.
She asked me if I was still in Shenyang. I said yes, but she seemed to stop talking. It took me half a day to ask carefully if I could do her a favor.
“Something to do with the scrotum?” I stunned.
She hesitated for a moment to say she didn't know, and then told me more about it.
Turns out her mother had a cousin named Yuan Datou, Yuan Datou was a businessman and had been back and forth in the three eastern provinces for many years.
As Yuan Datou's business started, he started a bad idea. He strangled a gang of gangsters and scoundrels. He often helped some high-ranking officials, and the rich man handled some unseen things.
He took over the business of a Taiwanese merchant a few days ago and got paid a lot of money after it was done, but before he got happy, something happened.
Yuan Datou's temper suddenly became grumpy. If he couldn't move, he became angry and even scolded the child. At first, Yuan Datou's wife thought he had been under too much pressure lately and didn't compare with him. She thought it would be okay.
Who knows, since then, Yuan Datou has completely changed and has become hostile to everyone around him, as if the whole world had offended him.
The family tried to put him in a psychiatric hospital, but the doctor said he had no mental problems. Looking at Yuan Datou's body losing weight every day, his face waxed yellow, Yuan Datou's wife realized what might have caused him to get unclean, and hurried around looking for tall people.
When Song Zhong's wife heard about it, she immediately remembered me and Li Mazi. She tried to call and ask. I didn't think we were really still in Shenyang.
“Mmm…”
After listening to her, I slowly said: "Sister-in-law, since it is not your business, it is in accordance with the rules of this line of work, but it is a charge. ”
If it's her own business, I'd rather help her than risk it. After all, it's not easy for an orphan widow. But since he is someone else and a fraudulent businessman, let's not talk about Li Mazi, even I can't help knocking on him.
“I know. I know. His family can give you a lot of money!” Seems afraid that I won't say yes, Song Zhong's wife hurriedly said.
I nodded, asked her to wait for us at home, and then hung up.
Li Mazi was right next to him. He heard the phone clearly. At this moment, he looked at me with a smile and said, “Hey, I told you this trip wasn't for nothing. ”
“Look at your loss! ”
I learned Song Xiaobao's words to scold him and smile with him.
In the afternoon, Li Mazi and I went to the market to buy something that might be used. We didn't rush to Snake Mountain Village until the sun set in the evening.
As soon as she entered the village, she saw a lot of old ladies sitting under a big tree playing mahjong and a lot of kids playing.
A lot of people recognize us, greet us with enthusiasm, ask if we need any help?
Seeing them like this, it was obvious that Song Zhong's tragic death had faded away. I lied about leaving Shenyang and wanted to visit Song Zhong's wife again. This saves the townsfolk from worrying.
In fact, I came all the way here to ask Song Zhong's wife to take us to Yuan Datou's house, but as soon as I went to her house to see the two children, I suddenly changed my mind, asked for the address and contact details and left directly.
Li Mazi asked me why I suddenly changed my mind. I said that everything was cause-and-effect. It was hard to say whether Yuan Datou met a pussy or not. There was no need to involve this orphan widow.
Yuan Datou's family lived in Wuhuan, Shenyang City. He walked all the way there and found that the building in front of him was like a mix of urban and rural areas, full of domestic garbage and stall vendors.
Eventually, we found Yuan Datou's house deep inside the building, an independent villa, standing at the entrance of the villa, a woman of thirty or forty years old, and saw us parked and hurried up.
“Are you Yuan Datou's wife?” I asked.
I've already made a phone call on the way here, and I think it's her.
“Yes, I am the wife of Yuan Datou, you can call me Xiaoli.” The woman nodded in unison while bending over and looking into our car.
Li Mazi's face turned hard to see. Tell me what you're looking at.
“Nothing to see, nothing to see...”
Xiaoli smiled with embarrassment. Although she said so, her eyeballs still glanced into the car, obviously looking at me and Li Mazi young, thinking there were still tall people in the car.
“Suspects don't need to be suspicious, sister-in-law, do you need us or not?” I asked calmly.
The shady trader also has a temper, and if she says no, I leave immediately.
She still has some eye value, listen to me, immediately apologize for the constant compensation.
I don't have time to talk to her. Let her explain to me exactly how Yuan Datou got back.
She led us into the villa, handed me two cups of coffee and Li Mazi, then said worried: “Since helping a Taiwanese boss take something from the countryside, my old Yuan suddenly had a big change of heart and was always angry for no reason. He didn't have that personality before. How could he suddenly deny his six parents...”
“Speak the point! ”
I had no time to listen to her talk about her sour history, frowning.
“All right, all right...”
Little Lipton remembered with a pale face, as if something terrible had come to mind.
After a while, she said, “The more evil gate is his madness during the day, but at night, he becomes tender, like an elegant gentleman, often sitting alone at the bed, talking small words! And he speaks with a very focused tone, and no matter what I say next to him, he won't get angry, he won't stop. ”
“I find it strange to see him like this, but I can't think of anything wrong, just when his conscience finds out. ”
Speaking of which, Li suddenly trembled, I knew she was frightened and patted her on the shoulder quickly, indicating that she would continue.
“Until the other day, when I went back to my mother's house, it was already late. I thought Old Yuan was asleep. Who knew when I first came in, I heard him speak a string of sweet words. My first reaction was to think that he had taken another woman home behind my back and immediately kicked the door open with anger. ”
“When I walked into the house, there was only one old Yuan in the bed, sitting on the bed talking to himself. He didn't say yes, as if talking to a ghost. ”
Xiaoli said all of this and kept patting her breasts.
Since then, she has realized the seriousness of the problem and has never dared to live in that room again.
“Looks like your man is obsessed with ghosts! ”
Li Mazi was proud of his long legs, so he said deeply.
He was avenging Xiao Li's disrespect for us at first. Xiao Li was terrified by the consequences. He asked Li Mazi what to do.
“I don't have to do this myself, just let my apprentice go.” Li Mazi pointed to me.
I shook my head helplessly, Li Mazi did look much older than me, so many times in the business he impersonated my master, I can't refute it.
Xiao Li looked at me in tears. I had to say, "Don't worry, sister-in-law! I'll definitely help you. ”
After that, Li Mazi took a hard look.
In the kung fu of Li Mazi and Xiaoli, I carefully measured every corner of the villa and found that the rest of the villa was dry, only one bedroom on the second floor had a strong tide, like a house by the sea.
Watch carefully and even have a black mist covering the door.
I couldn't help but frown, pointing to the bedroom and asking Li Xiao: “Is this Big Head Yuan's room? ”
“Yeah.” Xiao Li looked at me wonderfully: “How do you know, do you see any ghosts? ”
I nodded with no expression and said a few words to Li Mazi in front of him. Li Mazi blinked and went out without a word.
After he left, I asked Xiaoli if there were any other strange things happening at home.
You can see from the dark mist at the bedroom door that the shade that wrapped Yuan's head around is unusual! Since he can possess Yuan Datou, he can say small words to the house every night, indicating that there must be other weird things in the house!
At this moment, I stared dead at Xiaoli, and Xiaoli's eyes flashed, but she said no.
I'm sure she's hiding something from me, and she smiles coldly: "You better tell me without a word, or your husband will have an accident. Don't blame me me for not reminding you. ”
“Gao Man, I said, can't I?” Xiaoli bit her lip and hesitated to tell me the truth for half a day.
Turns out they didn't buy the villa, but Yuan Datou used the power of the Yakuza to rob it.
Previously living here was Yuan Datou's lover, who bought the villa for Xiaosan, but died before he could sign the house transfer contract.
After his death, Yuan Datou came to power and took up the idea of the villa. In the end, he was painted every day by the triad, wrote a letter of intimidation, and forced to commit suicide in the villa.
Yuan Datou is a social person. Naturally, he doesn't believe in ghosts. He soon came in.
Li looked at me nervously and asked if the ghost of the third son had come to the door.
“I can't take care of this. Find someone else.” When I heard it, I frowned and was about to leave.
I'm just a half-hanged shady trader, and I have to work hard when I encounter a slightly more powerful shady shade. Now that I don't know what the shadow is, there's another grumpy ghost in the villa, and unless I'm stupid, I'll never get into this mess.
Li saw me like this, realizing the seriousness of the matter, she hurried up to grab me and begged, crying when she said it.
I'm most afraid of women crying. Besides, Yuan Datou is the one who did the bad things. Xiaoli is just a housewife.
When I think about it, I breathe a deep breath and say, "Sister, don't worry, I'll try, I can't say if I can."
“Just give it a try, give it a try.” Li stammered repeatedly, obviously frightened.
Then I asked her, "When will Yuan Datou be gentle?" Xiao Li didn't even think about it and said every night around 12 o'clock.
I guess I'm right. Twelve o'clock belongs to a child in ancient times. It's the time of the handover of yin and yang. At this time, it's definitely the fierce ghost who can come out and talk to the shadow.
Then I asked her what Yuan Datou would do at this time.
“Sleep, he now sleeps all the time except at night when he says nasty things, even eating requires me to feed him.” Xiao Li said helplessly.
Yuan Datou seems to be dying since he is not even eating steadily.
After a while, Li Mazi came back with a big bag of grass and wood ash in his hand. He walked over and threw the grass and ash at me and said: "Shit, I let my brother do all the dirty work. This time the sale cost me more money, I have to pay more! ”
I ignored him and let Xiaoli take me into Yuan Datou's room.
She looked at the grass ash in my hand curiously and asked me what it was for.
“Ten kilograms of willow branches soaked in brine burned into a kilogram of ash for what purpose.” I smiled cold and looked at the black mist at the door.
“Master, this thing won't hurt my husband, will it?” Xiao Li asked nervously. Her face was full of worries about Yuan Datou. I had an overwhelming fondness for her, so I told her not to worry.
She nodded, so she could safely open the door and take us inside.
As she opened the door, I carefully stared at the strange black fog and found that it did not dissipate as the door was opened, but rather tended to faintly become larger.
At the same time, there was a stinking smell in the room. I walked over and found Yuan Big Head lying in bed snorting to sleep. He had no bloody bones, obviously he couldn't hold up much longer.
“Did he use this place as a toilet? ”
Li Mazi squeezed his nose and said, I looked at it with his eyes and found that there were many bottle jars full of excrement on the ground. Many of them were thrown out, causing the smell in the house to smell.
I couldn't help but wrinkle my eyebrows. Yuan Datou is like this. Don't you think Li cares?
