Chen Zizi raised his eyelids and looked around us again with his eyes that looked like he was not awake.
Still can't see the eyes.
Finally his eyes fell on Sean,
Sean squatted at my feet, tilting his head and looking at Chen Laizi, his dark eyes slowly turning golden.
But it did not show any hostility towards Chen Laizi, and its golden eyes were full of curiosity.
"That dog can't come in!"
Chen Zizi stretched out a hand from the crack in the door, pointed at Sean and said.
The hand was as gray as Chen Laizi's face, full of wrinkles, and the gaps between the nails were full of black oil.
As if he understood what Chen Cripple said, Sean slowly stood up, walked back to the car, and jumped into the car through the open rear window.
Obviously it didn't want to enter Chen Laizi's yard.
Seeing Sean return to the car by himself, Chen Zizi slowly opened the door completely and said, "Come in!"
With that said, he turned around and walked towards the house.
Chen Laizi was wearing white linen clothes that had not been washed for an unknown period of time. They were stained everywhere and looked more like gray with a greasy sheen.
He wore black cloth shoes, which matched his hair. His head and feet were black, and the middle section was all gray.
Including skin color.
His right leg is lame and is shorter than his left leg. He stands on tiptoes. When he walks, his shoulders hunch upwards and his head and neck are slightly stretched forward, like a puppet being held by strings.
We followed Chen Laizi into the courtyard.
The yard is overgrown with grass, and a jujube tree in front of the door is the only embellishment of the entire yard.
As soon as I walked into the yard, I smelled a very faint strange smell, a bit stinky, like the smell of some animal.
The door to the main house is a double wooden door, and the red paint is mottled and has long since peeled off.
There are three large tile-roofed houses with blue brick walls and carved wooden window frames. Like the wooden doors, they were once painted with red paint, but now they are so mottled that the original color can hardly be seen. You can only see the former color through the gaps in the carved patterns.
brilliance.
If a house like this were placed thirty years ago, it would have been considered a mansion.
But when we walked into the main room, we discovered that Chen Zizi was a paper maker. There were paper figures and horses made of white paper and stacks of yellow confession papers everywhere in the room.
Other than that, it can almost be said that the family is in ruins.
Except for an old square table in the middle that had not even been painted, there was not even a decent chair in the entire hall. The three back chairs were either missing arms or legs, and they were placed here and there, and in front of the square table there were
A long black bench was the only thing he could sit on.
On the square table are piles of ingots made of yellow watches.
Chen Laizi had no intention of inviting us to sit down. He sat alone in the middle of the bench, raised his face and looked at us with drooped eyelids and said, "What kind of business do you want to do with me?"
"Please be our guide and take us into Wuyun Mountain." Lu Xiaohong said.
"Into Wuyun Mountain?" Chen Laizi's face suddenly turned paler.
Lu Xiaohong looked at Chen Laizi without saying anything.
"Haha, you want to enter Wuyun Mountain?" Chen Laizi asked again and suddenly laughed.
The laughter was shrill and harsh, a bit like the sound of iron nails scraping glass, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
His body also shook violently with the sharp laughter.
"Yes, we are going into Wuyun Mountain. You will be our guide. When we get to where we want to go, you can leave. We will pay you 20,000!" Lu Xiaohong's face did not change and he stared into Chen Laizi's eyes.
"Twenty thousand, you just want me to take you into Wuyun Mountain? Hahahaha!"
Chen Laizi suddenly laughed crazily, as if he had heard a big joke.
"Do you know why my leg is lame? Do you know why I can't find a wife in my life? Do you know what is in Wuyun Mountain?"
Chen Laizi suddenly stopped laughing, stared at Lu Xiaohong and said in a thoughtful tone: "Wuyun Mountain is a place where no living person can enter. I was lucky enough to be able to save my life more than thirty years ago. How can you give me a chance?"
You want me to follow you into Wuyun Mountain to die for 20,000 yuan?"
"Fifty thousand!" Lu Xiaohong spoke again without hesitation, "We will ensure your safety."
Chen Laizi raised his eyelids, glanced at Lu Xiaohong, shook his head and said, "If you don't want to go, you can go!"
"Old cripple, just take them in, it will only take three to five days at most, and they only give you 50,000 yuan. You can't make 50,000 yuan even if you make paper people and horses for three years!" Old Dong persuaded Chen Cripple.
Chen Laizi ignored him and picked up the yellow watch on the square table and folded the ingot.
It's just that his hand that folded the ingot trembled slightly, probably because he was struggling.
Seeing that Chen Laizi didn't agree and didn't ask us to leave, Lu Xiaohong didn't say anything and just looked at Chen Laizi.
After a long time, Chen Laizi threw the folded ingot on the table, raised his head and said to Lu Xiaohong: "Eighty thousand, I want cash, and there is another condition!"
When the old director heard that Chen Laizi offered this price, he suddenly took a breath and said in surprise: "Old lame man, I'm afraid you are crazy about money. You can't even explain this price."
"What are the conditions? Tell me!" Lu Xiaohong nodded expressionlessly and spoke.
"You can't take that dog up the mountain." Chen Laizi thought for a while and said.
Lu Xiaohong was stunned when he heard this and looked at me.
I also find it a little strange why Chen Laizi is so afraid of Sean and would actually ask such a strange request.
Suddenly I remembered that Sean's eyes turned golden when he saw Cripple Chen. Is there something weird about Cripple Chen?
I took a closer look at Chen Laizi, and I didn’t find anything strange except that he had a heavier Yin Qi. The Yin Qi on his body should be related to the years of paper-tying. After all, these things are used in the underworld, so they will naturally attract those...
Lonely ghost.
Sean has great use in going into the mountains, so it is impossible not to take him with him.
Lu Xiaohong shook his head and said: "Everything else is fine, but I can't promise you not to take the dog into the mountains, but I can guarantee that it will not come into close contact with you."
Chen Laizi looked at Lu Xiaohong and asked doubtfully: "That's a beast, can you really guarantee it?"
"Of course I can guarantee it, because it is not an ordinary dog!" Lu Xiaohong said.
Chen Zizi lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take this job!"
Lu Xiaohong smiled and turned to look at Shi Xian.
Shi Xian understood and asked Ruowei: "Ruowei, how much cash did you bring?"
"One hundred thousand!" Lian Ruowei said.
"First give Mr. Chen 40,000 yuan as a deposit, and then give him the remaining 40,000 yuan when we get the place!" Shi Xian said.
Lian Ruowei nodded, took out four stacks of banknotes from her backpack and handed them to Chen Laizi.
Chen Laizi took the money, put his right ring finger into his mouth, dipped some saliva in it, and started counting them one by one.
After counting, he stuffed the money into his clothes and turned around and entered the back room.
After about ten minutes, he came out of the back room and said, "Let's go. If you want to enter the mountain, you must do it before four o'clock in the afternoon. You can't go in after four o'clock!" This chapter has been completed!
