Between mountains and seas

Chapter 51 Mr. He

The silent atmosphere in the car overwhelmed Chen Xiang.He took this business to pay off his gambling debts—this brother Shi said he wanted to find someone who understood Feng Shui and the world of mountains and seas.

Chen Xiang didn't know what the world of mountains and seas was. After he inquired about it, he realized that the world of mountains and seas refers to the place where ghosts and ghosts exist.At first he thought it was the underworld, but after asking Brother Shi, he realized that they were talking about some weird things that only existed in myths and legends.

Originally, Chen Xiang thought that he would not be able to earn this money.Although he also knows some so-called masters or masters, but they are all fools, just use it to deceive ordinary people, if you deceive Brother Shi-he is afraid that the money will be spent, so it is better to go back Work hard on my uncle.

But he didn't know that he had prayed for 99 times, and he lost in this last trembling. Seeing that he could fool his uncle, Shao Jingxing ran out and took his business away abruptly.

Chen Xiang was so angry that his heart would bleed.The longer his gambling debts are dragged on, the more he will roll over. Is he really going to sell his house?

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the commission from brother Shi before—the Jiao Ming that Shao Jingxing said, he checked it online after he got home, and found that it appeared in "Sou Shen Ji", the "Sou Shen Ji" "Remember" he also knows, isn't it just to remember some gods and ghosts!

This is called the road to the sky!Chen Xiang immediately went to see Brother Shi.He was also habitually bragging about his uncle being "ghost-possessed" in Xiangxi. Brother Shi really believed him, thinking that Shao Jingxing must be an expert in knowing Jiao Ming.

Afterwards, they watched Shao Jingxing's whereabouts for a few days, and today they finally picked him up as an order, and they brought him here quickly.But Chen Xiang remembered it after the person got it. At that time, Brother Shi said that he was looking for someone to take them into that mountain and sea world, but the door leading to that world is invisible to ordinary people, and only those who know how to find it can find it. .

Chen Xiang was driven into a panic by gambling debts, and when he heard that he had money, he quickly accepted it, without paying much attention to Brother Shi's request.Now that everyone has been kidnapped, Brother Shi was a little dumbfounded when he mentioned this.However, his mind turned quickly, thinking that since Jiao Ming came from the world of mountains and seas, there must be a door in Xiangxi, and he just asked Shao Jingxing to look for it.As for whether Shao Jingxing could be found... let's talk about it after he got the money and paid off the debt.

"You go to Xiangxi with us." Brother Shi smoked half a cigarette with his head sullen, and suddenly said.

"What, what?" Chen Xiang was caught off guard and panicked, "I, I'll go too? No, don't you need it?"

"You want to run?" Brother Shi raised his eyes and glanced at him fiercely, "Did you just get someone to fool me?"

"No, no, how dare I!" Chen Xiang's legs were weak from his gaze, "I, this is--I, I owe money to someone, this, this has to be paid back quickly, otherwise the profit will be huge. ...After going back to Xiangxi, the money will have to be doubled again, and I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my hand..."

Brother Shi ignored him at all: "Don't talk nonsense! You follow, if you can find the door, I will get a lot of money. If you can't find it, you don't need anyone else, I will cut off your hand to receive the money first!"

Chen Xiang's eyes were completely darkened: "Brother Shi, this, this is not such a rule..." He regretted it now, this brother Shi didn't have many people, but they were all a group of desperadoes, let alone chopped off his hands , even if he was killed in the old forest in Xiangxi, it would not be uncommon.

"I just follow the rules!" Brother Shi was also very irritable.In fact, Chen Xiang didn't know, he regretted it now.

They are actually a group of tomb robbers. They have been to all kinds of deep mountains and old forests, encountered some strange things, and died.When I was young, I was looking for excitement, and I could make money by stealing good things, and I lived a life of drinking and drinking very happily.It's just that the country's various measures have become more and more comprehensive in the past few years, and their bowl of rice is not delicious. When they were young, they didn't save much money, and life became more and more difficult.

Brother Shi didn't quite remember when he started receiving this type of work, all he was looking for were strange places or things, they had previous experience in tomb robbery, and they had also made a few deals.But this kind of work is still rare, and they are used to being extravagant, and their lives are still getting more and more embarrassing.

"It's because I missed my eyes..." Brother Shi sat in a daze, letting a long section of ash ignite on the cigarette butt.

When he saw Mr. He, he was short of money.

Mr. He looks gentle and gentle, and he is generous in his actions, and he is willing to pay half of the money up front.Brother Shi thought that he was the same as those before, and he was probably the agent of some rich man.It's just that the request he made was a bit weird. What he wanted was not some antique or curio, but a door.

After being in this business for so long, Brother Shi also has some ideas about this kind of thing, but it is not as clear as what Mr. He said. He said that place is not called the underworld or the underworld, but the world of mountains and seas, and he What they are looking for is the door to enter the world of mountains and seas.

This request is very strange, but Brother Shi has also heard of even stranger commissions, such as finding a ganoderma that looks like a swallow, or finding a legendary mermaid.

This kind of entrustment is actually a good thing for people like Brother Shi, because even if they can't find it, the client will not care too much about them.If they can provide a little information that the client finds valuable, they will not even get back the deposit.

It was with this idea that Brother Shi accepted Mr. He's commission.They are homeless and unemployed, so they can leave the city. Where will Mr. He find them then?Anyway, half of the deposit given by Mr. He is not too small, so they will wait two days with the money before discussing it.Maybe they can find another big business.

As a result, Brother Shi quickly discovered that he was wrong.

Even though it had been several days, Brother Shi subconsciously touched his neck, as if the transparent spider silk was still strangling there.He still doesn't know what Mr. He did or whether he cast some curse on him, but that night when he saw Mr. He in his dream, he still smiled so politely and asked, "Shi Sir, have you found the door?"

Although it was a dream, Brother Shi didn't appear to be confused like in ordinary dreams, but was rather lucid.So of course he took out the excuse he had prepared long ago, and talked about how they tried to inquire, as if he had heard that there were some clues in Yunnan and so on.

Mr. He finished listening to his words with a smile, and then said gently: "Does Mr. Shi think that I can't find Mr. Shi because Yunnan is so far away?"

Of course Brother Shi immediately denied it, but Mr. He didn't argue with him, he just smiled and waved his hands casually.Then Brother Shi heard a small voice coming from behind him, it sounded as if some kind of fluffy thing slid across the ground.

Brother Shi turned his head suddenly, and saw a beautiful woman standing behind him at some point, wearing a gorgeous red dress.But this woman's clothing and hairstyle are a bit weird, a bit like some Hanfu cosplay that Brother Shi has seen, but it doesn't look like it.But before Brother Shi took a closer look, as soon as the woman raised her hand, Brother Shi felt that his neck was being strangled by a rope.

But where is the rope?Brother Shi instinctively stretched out his hand to fumble around the neck, but soon his wrist was tightened by another invisible rope. He only realized through the reflection of the light that there were several transparent thin ropes extending from the woman's sleeves. , entangled him.

Even in the dream, Brother Shi felt the pain of suffocation, but Mr. He still stood there smiling, until Brother Shi started to roll his eyes, he waved his hand gently.The next second the rope was loosened, and Brother Shi fell to the ground with a plop, coughing and panting violently while holding his neck.

At this moment, he noticed half of the hairy thing protruding from the bottom of the woman's long skirt that stretched to the floor. He unconsciously stared at it while coughing, and it took a few seconds for him to suddenly react, It seemed to be the legs of some kind of insect, say - a spider.

At that moment, Brother Shi knew that Mr. He was not a simple person. Sure enough, Mr. He smiled at him: "Mr. Shi, if I can't complete my commission, I will be angry. She—" He pointed at the woman After a while, "I haven't eaten anything these days."

"I, I'll pay you back..." Brother Shi said with difficulty in his dream.But Mr. He shook his head very gently, and refused: "If you take my money, you must complete the commission, and I will not accept a refund. After all, if it is unsuccessful, my little pet can also get a good meal, right?" ?"

After he finished speaking, he turned around, and Brother Shi also woke up from the dream, covered in cold sweat.At first he wanted to convince himself that this was just a dream, but soon he found that there were clear strangle marks on his neck and wrists, and there was also a spider-shaped bruise on his chest, which seemed to be a little fluffy to the touch fleece.

Only now did Brother Shi realize that money cannot be taken carelessly, but one-third of the time limit has passed.He began to search for news desperately, even throwing money out. However, such news is often very low in credibility, and if you dig a little deeper, you will find that it is all fake.Just when he was starting to despair, he found Chen Xiang as a life-saving straw.

Mr. Chen was possessed by a ghost and made a big fuss. Brother Shi could find out about it, so Chen Xiang's words were highly credible.Besides, the time limit was already so tight, Brother Shi could only choose to trust Chen Xiang and get Shao Jingxing here.It is said that the anesthesia needle that brought Shao Jingxing down was obtained from Mr. He together with the deposit. Mr. He said that if you encounter any dangerous things in the door, you can use it, so Brother Shi directly used it on Shao Jingxing.

Of course, he was afraid of killing the person, so he only used a little bit, but the effect was very good, and the person fainted without making a sound, so he pretended to support the drunk companion, and put the person on the frame without a trace car.

But now looking at Chen Xiang like this, it seems that he has not completely told him the truth.This person may indeed know some things about that world, but Chen Xiang is not at all sure whether he can find the door.

In this case, it's no wonder Brother Shi let him run away.If he can't find the door, before Mr. He kills him, he will kill Chen Xiang first to save his back!

Of course Shao Jingxing didn't know about this, all he knew was that the car finally stopped after driving for more than an hour, and then he was picked up and walked for a while, and when he saw the sun again, he was in an old garage.

Brother Shi was as vicissitudes as his voice. When he stared at Shao Jingxing, he looked like a hungry wolf saw fresh meat, and asked, "Do you know the door to enter the world of mountains and seas?"

Of course Shao Jingxing knew about it.He heard the conversation between Brother Shi and Chen Xiang in the bag just now, and he had already vaguely guessed what Brother Shi was looking for.But of course he couldn't admit it so quickly, so he put on a dazed look after just waking up: "Ah? You, who are you?"

While pretending to be stupid, he quietly observed his surroundings.The garage is small and dilapidated, with some parts piled up in the corner, it looks like a temporary shelter.Because there is only one small window, the light is not very bright. Looking through the dirty glass, it is a row of non-descript houses, which seem to be some roadside shops, and nothing else can be seen.

As for himself, his hands and feet were tied up with strong nylon ropes, and he had just been dragged out of the bag—he was not afraid of being tied up, but he still felt the powerlessness in his body, and it was a bit difficult to move. It's more troublesome.

Shao Jingxing's answer made Brother Shi annoyed all of a sudden, and turned his head to stare at Chen Xiang.Chen Xiang panicked immediately, and jumped up and grabbed Shao Jingxing's collar: "Didn't you treat my uncle? You know that Jiao Ming, so you must know where those things came from, right?"

He also had a grim expression on his face, and his voice grew louder as he spoke: "You must know! You are so logical, and you know that Jiao Ming generally does not live on people, and that they are mutated and can suck blood. Then you must know that they are Where did it come from!"

"Okay!" Brother Shi's face could be scraped off a layer of frost, he pulled Chen Xiang away, and said to Shao Jingxing in a voice that he thought was more friendly, "I heard from Chen Xiang that you are a tall man. people."

I'm not, I'm not, don't talk nonsense!Shao Jingxing really wanted to give him a series of denials.But Brother Shi has already continued: "My brother invited you here, I just want you to help, find out where that Jiao Ming came from. As long as I find it, I promise to send you back unscathed. What do you think?"

Shao Jingxing didn't believe his words at all: "Didn't I meet that thing in Xiangxi?"

Brother Shi suppressed his impatience and anger, and said as patiently as possible: "Yes. We just want to go to Xiangxi to find the habitat of this thing." The door should be near there, right?If you can find that place, even if you can't find the door, you should be able to turn over to Mr. He.

Shao Jingxing made a bitter face: "I have never been to Xiangxi, and I don't even know where Mr. Chen has been to Xiangxi, so how could he find it. Since you know Jiao Ming, you should know that it is almost invisible to the naked eye. Why? Looking for it?" He had to delay time, it was dusk now, and he hadn't returned to the hospital for most of the day, Huo Qing would definitely become suspicious, maybe he would find out that he was missing soon, and then find a way to find him .

Alas, it would be great if the original blood of green snails was still there. Why didn't he think of it when he was in the hospital, and let Huo Qing and him inject the blood of green snails again?

Brother Shi's face was so gloomy that it was a little scary: "You should think about it, if you can't find it, I won't be able to get it, brother, you don't even want to go home again."

I promised you that you may not be able to go home.Shao Jingxing was thinking about how to answer when he heard someone outside the garage knock on the door rhythmically several times.

The garage had an old roller shutter door, and it knocked loudly, but the slow rhythm sounded like—very polite.

Brother Shi's eyelids twitched, but he didn't agree.After they came in, they pulled down the rolling door, pretending that there was no one inside, so who else would knock on the door?

But he didn't agree, and the people outside the door didn't seem to plan to leave.After a few seconds, the polite knock on the door rang again.Brother Shi's eyelids twitched wildly for a while, and finally he winked at his companion, and then asked loudly, "Who?"

"Me." A very gentle voice came from outside.

"Who knows who the hell you are?" Brother Shi's companion, the driver who was driving just now, cursed in a very low voice, but he immediately found that his boss's face turned pale, "Brother?"

Brother Shi's lips trembled twice, and he squeezed out a sentence: "Hey, Mr. He?"

Creaking—the rolling door made a teeth-piercing sound, and was lifted abruptly, revealing the figure standing outside.Shao Jingxing squinted his eyes and looked over, and saw a gentle-looking man standing outside the garage door, wearing a clean shirt, trousers, and even a tie, like an elite white-collar worker, and smiled at Brother Shi: "Shi gentlemen."

It should be said that he looks pretty good, especially when he smiles, he looks very gentle, but when Brother Shi saw him, he showed a ghost-like expression, and even took a step back subconsciously: "He, Mr. He, what are you, what are you doing?" here?"

"Of course it came from your smell." Mr. He said with a smile, and walked into the garage, "Oh, there are quite a lot of people here."

Shao Jingxing frowned suspiciously.What does it mean to follow the smell? Could it be a dog?But even a dog can't track a driver, can it?

"Mr. He, don't, don't be joking." Brother Shi tried his best to calm himself down, and quietly aimed his eyes outside the door.

This small action of his did not escape Mr. He's eyes: "What is Mr. Shi looking for?"

"No, I didn't find anything." Brother Shi made sure that the woman with spider legs was not outside the door that day, and felt a little more at ease.Without that woman, maybe...

Before he finished thinking, Mr. He had already smiled: "Are you looking for her?" As he spoke, he slightly raised his head as a signal.Brother Shi raised his head subconsciously, and a gorgeous red figure jumped into his eyes—that woman unexpectedly climbed to the ceiling of the garage at some point, and hung upside down in a strange posture.Her long skirt hangs down a bit, revealing eight gray hairy legs. It is these legs that she uses to firmly hold the ceiling. She lowered her head and showed a beautiful smile to Brother Shi. ...
