Chapter 97 Masked Man(1/2)
At around 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, the two took a taxi and arrived at the place Lu Biao mentioned. They walked cautiously in a certain direction. After walking for more than ten minutes, they saw a house with lights on.
"Old Chen, I know this place, and it has already covered the sky with its shadow."
The monk lowered his voice and said.
"It's not like this is the headquarters of the Zhetian Society or an important base."
Chen Haodong thought of what Lu Biao said, there was someone behind the boss, and there was a 70 to 80 percent chance that this person was what Chen Haodong had guessed.
The two of them could only touch it slowly, and they were discovered just as they touched it.
"Why are you sneaking around here so late?"
A powerful voice remembered that they had been discovered. Chen Haodong and the other two looked behind and saw an old man standing about ten meters away. Fortunately, they were far away and could not tell his appearance.
"We were passing by this place. We are travel friends and we specialize in traveling. It's just that it's not easy to take a taxi here, so we wanted to come in and stay overnight."
Fortunately, the monk responded quickly and said something. I don't know if the old man opposite believed it or not.
"Is he the living dead?"
Chen Haodong smelled a corpse gas, which was emanating from the old man.
The so-called living dead uses a secret method. He himself does not know that he is dead, and there is still breath in his throat.
He can still remember all his memories, move freely and speak, but he can't eat or breathe. He doesn't know this.
"I smell it too."
The monk pulled the corner of Chen Haodong's clothes to signal him to leave, and the two walked in the other direction.
The pace of the two people became faster and faster, and the old man behind them followed them quickly. This was because the monk deliberately diverted them away, not wanting to reveal their positions.
The monk suddenly stopped, followed by the old man.
As if they had agreed, the two of them rushed forward, blowing the wind with their fists and making a whirring sound. The monk swept Tan's legs, and the old man dodged the attack with a slight jump.
The monk punched the old man on the head, but was blocked by the old man's arm.
The monk hit the old man's abdomen with his left fist. Unexpectedly, a breath came from the old man's abdomen and shook his fist away.
At this moment, Chen Hao grabbed Chen Haodong's hand from behind and clasped it on the old man's eyes. The old man suddenly became very strong. The old man grabbed Chen Haodong's hand with his backhand and flipped it over.
Chen Haodong fell on the gravel road and felt a pain in his back. His bones were about to fall apart. At this time, the old man was as if he was going crazy. He could not see anything and could only rely on his hearing to determine the direction.
The old man heard Chen Haodong's wailing, and rushed up quickly, grabbing the ground with both hands.
Chen Haodong rolled away, and two pits appeared on the ground. If he had been a step too late, Chen Haodong would have been crippled by the old man.
Just when the old man jumped up and tried to step on Chen Haodong, the monk squeezed out eighteen Buddhist beads and hit him with them. The beads emitted a golden light and entered the old man's body.
The old man was knocked away by the beads and fell seven or eight meters away. Chen Haodong was beaten up by a carp.
The monk pronounced the Buddha's name and recited Buddhist scriptures.
The old man was roaring, grinning and struggling, and his body was bleeding.
The monk recited the Tao faster and faster, and then the beads exploded into flowers of the old man, and the beads returned to the monk's hands.
"Go quickly."
The monk pulled Chen Haodong and walked in a certain direction. The noise was so loud that it would definitely attract their attention.
The two of them didn't care about anything. Fortunately, the water on the ground shone at night, so they avoided a lot of puddles. They ran for more than ten minutes before stopping.
Saw it
Looking behind, I saw that no one was sitting on the ground breathing heavily.
"Old Chen, there is a melon garden in front of you."
The monk pointed to a place not far away. The two looked at each other and cautiously entered the melon garden with a tacit understanding. Each of them carried a watermelon and ran for a few minutes.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. Chen Haodong took out a bright dagger and cut the watermelon in half. The two of them didn't care about anything and just took it out.
It was already past four o'clock when the two of them got home. They took a shower and then fell asleep.
Fortunately, the biological clock is relatively on time. I have a habit developed over the years to wake up at a little after six o'clock, and go out to the group early, so I can be considered the first one to arrive.
"Who are you?"
As soon as I entered the security room, I found that a night shift security guard was sleeping, which woke him up. He just patrolled at night, which was not as hard as during the day.
"Working the day shift,"
Chen Haodong replied lightly and handed a cigarette to the middle-aged security guard.
"You work the day shift. You're the first one to come in so early."
The middle-aged security guard took Chen Haodong's cigarette without courtesy and took a puff.
"You got up early."
The two chatted casually, and Chen Haodong's mind was filled with the thought that there were still living dead in the Zhatian Society, and that there would be another group of people willing to die tomorrow.
In the morning, I still saw Li Fengzhen at the door, looking depressed. Even though she put on light makeup, she couldn't change her listless look.
Li Fengzhen almost fell to the ground with a somersault. Fortunately, Chen Haodong quickly hugged Li Fengzhen and prevented her from falling.
"Thanks."
Li Fengzhen was startled, and then she realized that she went to work on her own. Chen Haodong not only saw the monkey, but also the kitten and walked into the company.
"Brother Biao, have you paid your wages today?"
Chen Haodong burst out laughing when he saw Lu Biao.
"I'll invite you to drink together tonight. We'll have a great time drinking with you, but they won't drink with me."
Lu Biao talked for a while, and Chen Haodong also knew that Lu Biao's drinking capacity was not something that ordinary people could win.
If Chen Haodong hadn't prepared the anti-alcohol medicine, he could drink so much with Lu Biao. Now he still comes to drink with Chen Haodong. Do you dare to drink?
"Brother Biao, I can't accompany you tonight if I have something to do. I'll ask you to come another day."
Chen Haodong found an excuse to reject Lu Biao.
The whole morning passed like this. Fortunately, the security guard could move around and smoke at will. Otherwise, Chen Haodong would also want to sleep, but he couldn't play with his mobile phone.
"Thank you in the morning."
Li Fengzhen took the initiative to sit across from Chen Haodong while he was eating. She had something in mind last night and came here to ask about it today.
"It's okay, it should be."
Chen Haodong was eating by himself without looking back.
"How do you know that a relative of mine has died? Can you tell fortunes?"
After a moment of silence, Li Fengzhen looked at Chen Haodong and hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"It's obvious."
"Then can you help me figure out why they died? I can give you money."
Li Fengzhen bit her lip and said softly, her voice was very low, as if she was afraid that everyone around her would know.
"If a person cannot be resurrected, why bother? You have such deep thoughts."
Chen Haodong did not answer her words, but instead said, what can he do if he knows the reason, not to mention that people cannot be resurrected after death.
"But I can't do it. Please help my family calculate it once. Just don't open your mouth like a lion."
Li Fengzhen told her mother's horoscope,
Chen Haodong performed a fortune-telling with his hands and found that his mother should not have been killed, but she was confused and died.
"The lamp has dried up and the oil has run out,"
Chen Haodong saw that she was emotionally unstable, so he still found an excuse.
"Really? My mother was still in good spirits, but she suddenly passed away the next morning."
The voice was desolate, and he still had a skeptical attitude, but his heart calmed down a bit. The lamp ran out of oil, which was a natural death.
"I see that you don't look very good either. Get some rest. I'm leaving first."
Chen Haodong still has to go to work. Although the security guard only has half an hour to eat, he knows that he will not be here for a long time, but he still has to show his hard work, otherwise he will be suspicious.
Everyone in the security department is smiling today because everyone has been paid today, although most of the money has to be saved.
Or leave a little for your wife at home, that would also be a very happy thing.
"Xiao Chen, come and smoke a cigarette"
There are seven security guards working the day shift. Although Chen Haodong has little contact with them, he knows a little bit about them.
"Oh, Brother Yang has improved a lot today."
The man named Yang Ge usually gets a pack of ten yuan a piece, but today he got a salary and bought a pack of fifteen yuan.
"Hey, I don't ask for anything, just take this day of salary as a slightly better reward for myself."
Time seemed to pass much slower than usual today. I peeked at the time no less than 20 times in one afternoon and finally got off work.
