Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 499: Bronze Box Demon Talk
Turns out the old lady's husband was a veteran who fought back against Vietnam because he killed several Vietnamese ghosts and won the Medal of Honor. The local government did not, however, assign him a job after his demobilization, not even the most basic subsidy.
Nearly middle-aged men could only return to their homes at the time to prepare their fields for pasture, but their farmland was confiscated on the grounds that they were members of the army and did not belong to the peasant class without the authority to divide the fields.
Helpless, the two had to go to the wasteland behind the mountain where no one wanted to open the desert, and they didn't expect to dig up a case of copper leather in the mountain.
“Ma'am, do you mean this unclean box was there decades ago?” I couldn't help interrupting the old lady's words.
If the suitcase is so fierce, it's bad luck when the couple digs it out. How come it's all right for decades and it's not out until now?
“That's right, already. ”
The old lady sighed and looked at the wall behind her with some stubbornness. I followed her and found a black and white photograph hanging there. The man inside was wearing a military uniform and several military medals on his chest. The face of the Chinese characters was filled with a confident smile.
I am suddenly stuck in my heart. What hope does this people have if even these heroes who guard the frontiers of the country cannot enjoy their old age?
The old lady took a break and went on to say: after digging the copper leather case, the old man was upset and ready to sell it for a change, because we could barely eat... "
“Ma'am, the state is sorry to you. ”
I heard the back of my nose with acid, some sad words.
At the time, the couple wanted to sell the case, but later found that it was not made of copper and was not worth anything. But when they saw the box was beautiful, they didn't throw it away, they left it at home.
Because the box didn't open, it broke if you force it to open, so you never had to open it.
Later, through their hard work, they gradually had a wonderful, worry-free day, even old age. Both mouths thought they could stay happy and everything changed when my son was 18 years old.
Their son's name is Sunday. He has been a sunny little boy since he was a kid. He is very popular with his relatives and friends. Everyone thinks he has a great time growing up.
Nobody thought they'd suddenly get gloomy after their eighteenth birthday on Sunday, keep themselves locked up in their rooms all day, don't want to talk to anyone else, and even cry at night.
At first, the two old men thought they were having trouble on Sunday, and after a few questioning, their son loved to ignore them, so they stopped asking questions. I wish I had thought of my son, but things are getting worse and worse...
One night, the old men fell asleep and suddenly woke up with a loud noise, followed by a terrible Sunday cry upstairs.
They rushed upstairs in their clothes and found that Sunday they had smashed the colorful electricity they had just bought at home, turning the entire television into millions of slap-sized pieces.
Sunday he himself rolled back and forth with his eyes covered in fragments, screaming and crying as if he had suffered a great deal of grief.
The old two bites couldn't get to the TV, hurried up to pull the son up, forcibly broke his hand, and then a scene appeared that they would never forget: Sunday's eyeballs were gone, and two empty orbits were bleeding out!
The old lady was stunned for half a day and then fainted with both eyes.
Sunday's father was a soldier, but he was old enough to carry on. When he was ready to go to the hospital with his son on his back, he didn't know that Sunday, when he was skinny, he became powerful and knocked his father out.
The next day the old couple woke up and found that Sunday's eyes were fine, and that TV piece was still there, which means what happened last night was true.
They were very tacitly aware that their son might be experiencing something unclean, so go and have a look at it from the knowledgeable gentleman.
The gentleman vowed to come, but after seeing the copper suitcase, he snatched the door and ran away, never daring to take the business again!
The old lady was unhappy and went to hire several famous gentlemen. No one dared to take over. Later, they had to throw away the case, hoping for peace. The old man died that night.
“My old man died a terrible death! ”
Speaking of which, the old lady cried again, and I knew that she was talking about the most critical moment, asking her scalp hard about what had happened that night.
“I fell asleep and suddenly I saw the old man in front of me, and he cried and said," Let me serve that box with sandalwood, so I can save my son's life! "He also said that the last thing he regretted was taking the box home, and that what came was inevitable. ”
“The old man waved at me when he was finished, and his body grew farther and farther away until it disappeared completely. When I woke up, the old man had swallowed his breath, and he held the case tightly in his hands. ”
The old lady could no longer control herself. She cried.
I can basically tell by her description that there is a shade in this box, or that the box itself is a shade, otherwise the old lady won't be allowed to serve the box until she dies.
Since it's a shady thing, I'm sure I'll get rid of it!
However, from Sunday, when he was eighteen years old, the owner of the shadow must have had something to do with the number eighteen.
When the old lady was tired of crying, I asked her where she lived on Sunday. She said that in downtown Puyang, she had been devoting herself to the suitcase since the old man died, and that Sunday had definitely returned to normal. After graduating from college, she had successfully married her son, bought a house in the city and had a good life.
“Then why didn't he take you to live with him? ”
I noticed the old lady's face was dim when she mentioned her son, so I asked one more question.
She heard some embarrassing remarks and hasn't been home on Sunday since she found out the box was weird. And he was afraid of his wife, and he had no intention of taking the old lady to live with him. It was like letting the old lady die for herself.
“This rebel! Too much. ”
I chewed on my teeth and decided to teach Sunday a lesson when I was done with my pussy!
Then I asked for the address of Sunday's new home, and then I told the old lady not to incense the box again tonight, and I wanted to see what this punk could do about Sunday.
Before going out, the old lady repeatedly asked me to protect Sunday, saying that it was the only flesh of their couple, and that they would not live if something happened on Sunday.
Mother's worried, Mother's worried! I was touched by the old lady's mother's love. I couldn't help but think of my parents when I rushed to Sunday's house.
I haven't seen my father and mother since I was a kid.
Although Grandpa was nice to me, I knew that my parents' love could never be given by Grandpa. Sunday is lucky, but he doesn't know how to cherish it! I wept thinking about it until the driver forced me out of the car.
When I got off, I wiped my tears and found myself living on Sunday in a high-end neighborhood similar to the villa complex, where the separate houses looked luxurious, in stark contrast to the old lady's inn.
Security guards wouldn't let me in alive when I entered the neighborhood door. I had to say that I was Sunday's cousin and let him contact Sunday.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a national face frowned and walked into the security room and mumbled: "When did I have an extra cousin? ”
“Sunday, I want to talk to you. ”
The middle-aged man was obviously on Sunday, and I didn't pretend to be any more cousins, so I opened the door and said.
And after he heard it, he looked at me with some caution: "Who are you and why are you looking for me? ”
“It's your mother who sent me. Can I have a word?” I watched a few of the security guards look around and simply took Sunday out of the neighborhood.
“What happened to my mother?" asked a misty man on Sunday. ”
“Your mother's fine, but you're in danger.” I was disgusted by his attitude, and he said, "I'm going to keep him safe for 24 hours from now, so he's going to have to take care of his food.
Unexpectedly, I laughed on Sunday, pulled a hundred bucks out of my pocket and threw it on the floor, then looked at me with disgrace and said if you wanted to cheat the money, just say it, don't make such a corner.
Then he simply turned around and went home and never looked at me again.
I look at 100 bucks on the ground and suddenly I feel like Sunday's real shit!
His mother worked so hard to open a hotel, because the business wasn't so good, he made a hundred bucks a day, and he was practicing.
For a moment I really wanted to turn my head and let the copper suitcase kill this bastard! But when I think of the poor old lady, I get soft, and eventually I can only open a window-mounted machine at an internet cafe across the street.
Nearly 12: 00, I turned off my computer and looked sideways at the neighborhood gate.
If that punk really comes to Sunday's trouble tonight, he'll believe what I say on Sunday, and he'll come back to the old lady for me.
There was no pedestrian outside at this moment, looked past through the street lights, the security guards were drowsy, and all the houses in the neighborhood turned off the lights and looked peaceful.
I just stared for over half an hour, and when I felt like I wouldn't be surprised tonight, there was a scream from a woman in the distance, and then the lights went on!
