"Haha... It's so late, why don't you sleep?" Suddenly, Old Man Zhang's voice came from behind me.
I slowly turned my head, just in time to face the old and dark face of old man Zhang.
It's late at night, and Old Man Zhang, who originally seemed talkative, humorous, and gentle, now looks indescribably weird.
"Haha..." I laughed dryly. "I couldn't sleep at night, so I went out for a walk. I didn't know how I ended up here. I just wanted to have tea and chat with you."
"Really?" Old Man Zhang glanced at me lightly and said lukewarmly.
The situation in front of me was a bit tricky, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
"The chrysanthemum tea I treated you to during the day was pretty good, wasn't it?"
"Not bad, quite good!" I gave Old Man Zhang a thumbs up and kept praising him.
Old man Zhang looked at me and smiled mysteriously. I don't know what he was thinking.
"I'm afraid you're not telling the truth!" Old Man Zhang put his hands behind his back and said to himself without looking at me.
"What you saw in the chrysanthemum tea must have frightened you! You were so frightened that you couldn't even hold the teacup in your hand."
Listening to the words coming out of Old Man Zhang's mouth, my body trembled violently. What Old Man Zhang said about "what he saw in chrysanthemum tea" was undoubtedly referring to that terrifying grimace.
I have always thought that the grimace I saw had nothing to do with Old Man Zhang, but now it seems that is not the case. Old Man Zhang obviously knows about the existence of the grimace.
A cold light flashed in my eyes, and I took a step back and looked at Old Man Zhang warily, "Who are you, and what's with that grimace?"
"Who am I? Haha..." Old Man Zhang looked very crazy at the moment, throwing his head up and laughing, "I am the amiable Grandpa Zhang you call me. We were still talking and laughing together during the day, but now you don't recognize me?"
I just want to say one thing now, I’m so stupid!
Damn it, why didn’t I see through this old man Zhang earlier?
I moved my steps and stepped back step by step. At the same time, I put my hand on my yellow cloth bag. As long as the situation in front of me was not right, I would immediately fight with Old Man Zhang.
"Crack!"
Just when I was on high alert, I suddenly felt someone tap me on the shoulder.
I looked back subconsciously, but there was nothing. My heart thumped... and a very bad premonition came to me.
I suddenly felt a cold wind blowing towards me from behind me. This cold wind blew on my body. I felt dazed and my mind gradually began to become unclear.
My eyelids began to tremble, and in a daze I saw old man Zhang walking towards me with a sinister smile on his face.
When Old Man Zhang came closer to me, I wanted to stretch out my hand and push him aside, but my whole body was limp and I had no strength at all.
I could only see Old Man Zhang slowly walking in, and finally his figure kept reappearing in front of my eyes. I wanted to open my eyes wider, but I couldn't. I fell heavily to the ground, and then
Don't know anything anymore.
There was endless darkness in front of me, and my head hurt as if it was about to explode.
"Where is this?" I struggled to open my eyes and looked in front of me.
"Haha... you finally woke up?" Old Man Zhang's unique hoarse voice full of self-marks reached my ears.
After I opened my eyes, I realized that I was tied to the old locust tree in front of Old Man Zhang's door, and in front of me, Old Man Zhang was looking at me with a smile.
When he saw me waking up, he walked up to me, stretched out his rough hand, and gently patted my face, "You finally woke up!"
Old man Zhang slapped my face with his hand, and I just felt like someone was rubbing sand on my face, which caused a slight pain.
"You young people just like to meddle in other people's business. What will happen even if you find out the truth in the end?" Old Man Zhang sighed and said with great regret.
I stared at Old Man Zhang in front of me fiercely, "What is your purpose and why do you want to tie me up?"
Old Man Zhang frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Anyway, you have been caught by me now, so it doesn't matter if I tell you!"
"Actually, I am a ghost refiner." Old man Zhang looked at me and said mysteriously.
Ghost refiner?
When I heard this term, I was shocked. I had a lot of guesses about Old Man Zhang's identity before, but I never thought that Old Man Zhang was actually a ghost refiner!
As the name suggests, ghost refiner is the name given to those who specialize in refining imps.
Ghost masters use various means to subdue the wandering ghosts and then refine them into imps. After the imps are refined, they either make the imps obey their orders or sell the refined imps.
This is by no means an alarmist. I once saw a little ghost seller on Taobao. At that time, out of curiosity, I chatted with the seller for a few words. The seller assured me that as long as I took the photo and paid, I would get what I ordered.
I guarantee it will be delivered within five minutes.
It shocked me at the time and I didn’t dare to continue chatting with the seller.
And the price of a little ghost is not cheap, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands. Also on Taobao, I have seen a seller price a little ghost in the millions, claiming to be the "King of Little Ghosts."
However, I don’t know if the seller who sells Xiaogui online supports returns within seven days without any reason.
Similarly in real life, there are many people selling imps, but most of these people's whereabouts are relatively hidden. It is not easy to find them and buy imps.
The kid Liu Qingsong had originally used to deal with Gu Yuxin was also bought by him.
"Haha... I didn't expect it! I am actually a ghost refiner!" Old Man Zhang said with a smile, his smile was indescribably sinister and weird.
"The ghost faces you saw several times today are the little ghosts I made. I thought that after you saw my little ghost for the first time, you would be scared and stay away from me. But you are really ignorant.
You actually took the initiative to come to my house. From your expression and reaction when drinking chrysanthemum tea, I concluded that you must be determined to come over tonight, and it is true!"
I sighed in my heart, but in the end I was counted out.
Old man Zhang suddenly approached me. His face was less than a few centimeters away from mine, and his breath hit me directly in the face.
He took a greedy sip, with a look of intoxication on his face, "I really didn't expect that the yang energy in your body would be so abundant. Since you have been caught by me, do you think I should kill you and turn you into a brat, or should I just use you?"
Where is the yang energy to feed my little devils?"
