Chapter 39 Getting Bitten by a Dog

At this time, Jiang Haiwang had also finished his dinner.

"hiss!"

The injury on his buttocks hadn't fully healed yet, and he would wince in pain whenever he stood up too hard.

"That damned timefish!"

If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be in this state.

Fortunately, that little bitch has now perished at sea, eaten by fish until not even a bone fragment remained.

Thinking about it this way, he felt a little better.

Then, Jiang Haiwang limped toward the light rope.

He planned to go to bed early.

Snap!

But to everyone's surprise, the moment the lights went out, Shi Yu's face suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Haiwang.

A half-smile, yet not quite a smile, so close yet so intimate.

"Ah! A ghost!" Jiang Fuhai's heart skipped a beat, and he turned pale with fright.

Thump thump thump!

He lost control and stumbled backward, the drill hitting his backside without regard for his own safety, making him rub his teeth in pain.

"Shi Yu, you were blown into the sea and drowned on your own, it has nothing to do with me! Don't come looking for me!"

"Yeah?"

With a cold laugh, Shi Yu chased after him, squatted down in front of him, and patted his face. "Jiang Haiwang, what did the King of Hell tell me? You deliberately framed me."

"They even said I was wronged, so they let me up here to get some answers."

"No, absolutely not!" Jiang Haiwang shook his head like a rattle-drum.

The fish has come to claim your life.

He naturally couldn't admit it.

"Grandma, please go back! I'm begging you, I... I'll kowtow to you."

As he spoke, Jiang Haiwang knelt down in front of Shi Yu and kowtowed to her repeatedly.

Humble as a dog.

Shi Yu watched this scene with a mocking expression.

To be honest, you really shouldn't do anything that goes against your conscience.

"Uncle? What are you doing?" The lights in the room came on as a questioning voice rang out.

Shi Yu looked up.

A young man arrived and stood at the threshold.

Jiang Haiwang was dumbfounded, his kowtow frozen in mid-air.

He glanced at the young man, then at Shi Yu beside him.

When his gaze met Shi Yu's ambiguous, mocking look, a few seconds later, a surge of anger rushed to his head.

At that moment, Jiang Haiwang understood everything.

Oh shit!

The fish was not dead at this point.

She's deliberately messing with her.

"Pfft!"

Seeing Jiang Haiwang's unpredictable mood and twitching lips, the young man's lips twitched as well, and he finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Jiang Haiwang's face turned bright red.

Having lost face, he glared angrily at the young man and demanded through gritted teeth, "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm warning you, if this gets out, you'll be in big trouble."

"Uncle, I understand." The young man quickly suppressed his smile.

What are you doing here?

“I have collected the clothes and bedding on the island that were seriously infested with damp insects and put them on a cart to bring to your yard.”

"What?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Haiwang's face turned ashen.

He told him to collect all the sources of infection and then burn them all in a deserted place.

But why did this simpleton bring him to his house?

Is it because you can't understand human speech?

"You..." Jiang Haiwang was about to curse when he glanced at Shi Yu next to him and suddenly saw her.

He narrowed his eyes, a calculating glint flashing almost imperceptibly in them.

Shi Yu was too lazy to waste words with him.

She first threw the bag of large grains of salt on the ground, then took a step forward.

"50 jin of coarse salt, costing 100 yuan in total, here you go!"

"What? 100 yuan?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Haiwang nearly bit off his own tongue.

At the county market, the best cuts of pork belly cost only 1.2 yuan per jin (500g).

Large-grained salt costs two yuan per pound.

"Shi Yu, why don't you go and rob him?" Jiang Haiwang gritted his teeth.

"What? You want to renege on your debt?" Shi Yu narrowed her eyes dangerously. "Fine, if you don't want to pay, then I'll gather everyone on the island and have a proper talk about going out to buy salt."

Jiang Haiwang's expression changed.

It would be fine if it were just Shi Yu, but the key issue is Lu Yizhou.

After weighing the options, Jiang Haiwang had no choice but to swallow his anger and say, "Wait, I'll get you the money."

With the hundred yuan in hand, Shi Yu held it up and examined it under the light.

Only after confirming that everything was correct did they put it away.

"If you ever get another easy job like this again, remember to call me!"

The mocking voice reached his ears, and Jiang Haiwang almost got so angry that his nose twisted out of shape.

Seeing Shi Yu walking out, he quickly said to the young man, "Come on, let's go out and take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Fuhai had already caught up with Shi Yu.

...

Jiang Haiwang stepped out of the front door and took a look.

A cart loaded with clothes and bedding was parked in the very center of the yard, covered with a tarpaulin.

Ouch!

Upon reaching Shi Yu's side, Jiang Haiwang seized the opportunity, pretending to suddenly twist his ankle and lose his balance, giving Shi Yu a hard shove.

He deliberately pushed her toward the cart.

Everything happened so suddenly that Shi Yu was completely unprepared.

He immediately lost control and rushed over.

"Watch out!" Just as they were about to crash into the cart, Lu Yizhou rushed over at the last second.

He reached out to pull Shi Yu's arm, trying to pull him back.

But who knew...

The fish was falling too fast, and when Lu Yizhou rushed over, the angle was a bit off.

Although he grabbed Shi Yu's hand, he not only failed to pull her back, but he also dragged himself along with her.

bump!

The two fell down together and landed on the cart, where the clothes and blankets covered them.

Watching this scene, Jiang Haiwang felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

The number of damp insects on this cart of clothes and bedding... that's a huge number. It would be even better if they could bite the two of them until they were completely dead.

"Shiyu, are you alright?!"

Lu Yizhou pulled Shi Yu up with him.

"I'm fine!"

As Shi Yu shook her head, she pinched her fingertips together, and a pale blue light rippled out and quickly entered Lu Yizhou's body.

As for herself...

Even the Old Ancestor of Damp Insects wouldn't dare approach her at all.

Lu Yizhou looked sharply at Jiang Haiwang.

As soon as he and Shi Yu moved, Jiang Haiwang quickly took two steps back.

His expression was tense, as if he were avoiding a snake or scorpion.

He was terrified of contracting the parasite.

"Lu Yizhou, let me explain. I just fell down and accidentally bumped into Shi Yu," Jiang Haiwang said, trying to justify himself.

"Yeah?"

“Yes, yes!” Jiang Haiwang’s eyes darted around. “Blame these tattered clothes and bedding; they’ve done us a lot of harm!”

"But you two don't need to worry too much. Although these things are used by patients, they don't necessarily get infected with dampness insects, right?"

Shi Yu and Lu Yizhou exchanged a glance.

This old man couldn't even hide his true colors; the schadenfreude in his eyes was already blatantly obvious.

Damn it!

It would be an injustice not to teach him a lesson.

only……

Before Shi Yu could even make a move, Lu Yizhou acted first.
