The first thousand five hundred and forty-eight chapters
Before Old Man Zuo's dagger touched his throat, Nie Xiaochun grabbed his wrist: "Li Po, is it too much to kill him?"
I shook my head slightly and said, "Lao Zuo, I know what you mean. You abide by the rules of Tongyang's carriages and horses, and you would rather die than betray your employer."
"You have received a favor from me again, and you have to repay this favor, so you want to die!"
Old Man Zuo knelt on the ground without saying a word, as if waiting for Nie Xiaochun to let go so he could stab himself again.
I raised my head and looked at the roof: "Forget it, please pay out the pensions of those people! Give me another shock payment, and forget the grudge between us. From now on, we will go our separate ways and never see each other again.
I won’t force you.”
Warlocks have the principles of a warlock. Old Man Zuo would rather die than break his principles. It is useless no matter how hard I try to force him.
Nie Xiaochun let go of Old Man Zuo and said, "I have never seen anyone as stupid as you."
"Your employer is going to kill you, and you still try your best to protect your employer. Are you a fool?"
"If they can attack your family once, they can do it a second time."
"Li Po believes that you are a person who abides by your principles. Does your employer believe that? They are afraid that you will leak secrets and they will kill you and your relatives!"
Old man Zuo looked at Nie Xiaochun with dull eyes: "I...I can really..."
Nie Xiaochun said: "Just be quiet and think about it."
Nie Xiaochun helped the old man Zuo up and at the same time winked at Qin Xin, who pulled out a flute and held it in his hand.
Just as Old Man Zuo was about to turn around to talk to me, Nie Xiaochun raised his hand and struck him on the neck. Old Man Zuo fainted on the spot.
I looked at Nie Xiaochun inexplicably: "How did you knock him out?"
Nie Xiaochun said: "Let Qin Xin play the flute for him so that he can clear his mind."
"Qin Xin has a song called Reminiscence, which can bring back people's memories. It is most suitable for Old Man Zuo now. Once he understands the half-life he has experienced, his head may turn around."
"Don't listen, I don't want to see you two dogs holding each other's hands and crying!"
Nie Xiaochun dragged Old Man Zuo into the room and made a soundproof barrier.
Ye Yang looked at me and said, "If Old Man Zuo is still stubborn, what should we do?"
"Then let's go through his account book!" I said: "There are too many things involved in Tongyang's carriages. Whether Old Man Zuo is willing or not, I have to figure things out."
"I said I wouldn't force him, but I didn't say I wouldn't steal from him."
"Besides, Tongyang's carriages and horses are related to Lin Zhao and the Reincarnation Department. I'm not that generous. I let Old Man Zuo go just because of my faith."
"Everyone in the world has a guilty conscience. If I leave like this, Old Man Zuo will definitely be suspicious. If he goes to look at his family's account books, we will have a chance to steal from him."
"Now that I have the account book, it will be much easier for me to force him to submit."
Ye Yang looked at me up and down: "When did you become so cunning?"
"Ahem..." I coughed twice and said, "I learned it all from Old Liu. That guy never teaches good things."
Ye Yang rolled his eyes at me, but I walked out of the office with my hands behind my back, and walked all the way to the parking lot before saying, "Leng Gou, how do you think Tongyang's carriages and horses are made?"
"It has been an ancient rule in the Yin and Yang worlds that no living person should enter the Huangquan Road. How do the carriages and horses in Tongyang do it?"
When a warlock goes to the underworld, he does not go into the underworld physically, but uses methods such as soul-suppressing and out-of-body experiences to make his soul go to the underworld. When he reaches Fengdu City, he will contact the ghost messengers and ask them to help bring people out.
According to legend, only those who have reached the realm of earthly immortals can physically withstand the dark winds of the underworld. Otherwise, entering the underworld road will lead to a dead end.
Ye Yang said: "There are records of carriages and horses in Tongyang in the secret files of the Xiuyi Guards. According to legend, their carriages and horses were made of special wood. People hiding in the carriages can withstand the dark winds of the underworld."
"As for how to make Tongyang chariots and horses, there is no record."
"Wood!" I walked to the side of a minibus and knocked on it twice: "Isn't this a normal car? Can this thing withstand the dark wind of Huangquan?"
Ye Yang said: "This is not a Tongyang chariot. It should be a ghost chariot."
I walked behind the minibus and opened the engine cover, only to see a body inside that had been crushed and deformed.
When I lowered my head to look at the corpse, the other person suddenly opened his eyes, and blood and anger burst out from his eyes.
When the corpse and I looked at each other, the latter suddenly opened its mouth full of fangs, and made a scream-like sound from its throat - a ghost sound!
There are many ghosts that use sound to hurt people. Some use sound to confuse their prey, some directly knock people unconscious, and some take away people's souls by calling their names...
These are called ghost sounds in the art world.
Before the other party could even make a ghost sound, I put the dagger into his mouth, and the tip of the knife was directly pressed against the other party's throat: "Scream! Do you dare to make a sound?"
"If you move your lips again, I'll drill a hole in your head right away."
