Chapter 133
The oyster spirit gave them many pearls, so many that they had to stuff the pearls into their own stomachs and force them into the fish's mouths in order to take them all away at once.
But they were still not satisfied and wanted him to open his shell again. He was giving birth at the time and was already in great pain. They still said such things. Is this something a human being can say?
Of course he wasn't happy about it, and he didn't even want to give them the food in his stomach. He got up and wanted to leave, but they wouldn't let him. During the argument, he overturned a boat and escaped into the water. They were unwilling to give up and jumped into the water to chase him...
Then they all died.
The clam spirit paused here and emphasized, "I didn't kill them. They drowned on their own. You pulled me and I pulled you, and some people tried to catch the escaped fish. In the end, they either drowned or died of exhaustion. I was so kind as to want to save them, but they showed greedy looks when they saw me..."
He looked at Tian Bajiao meaningfully and said, "I was scared. I hesitated for a short while, and they were all dead. Come to think of it, this might be retribution. He could have lived a rich life, but died because of his greed. It shows that we should be content with what we have.
It would be better if they were as kind as me. Even though they died, I still helped them deliver the spices. If I didn't get any good rewards, it would be really unfair, don't you think?"
Who are you pointing at?
Tian Bajiao was happy to collect the pearls, but was hesitant to keep him.
"Let's make a deal first. I'll let you stay, no problem, but this shop isn't mine. You can only stay in my room and you're not allowed to make any noise. Leave as soon as you feel better. I don't expect you to repay me, and you shouldn't repay me with evil."
"I don't like to hear that," he rolled his eyes, "You've already accepted my pearls, why are you still talking about gratitude or not? We just each took what we needed.
Please help me, I can’t get up.”
"You seem to understand things now. You don't sound that smart from your story."
Tian Bajiao reached out his hand to him, and without much effort, he climbed up by himself, holding Tian Bajiao's shoulders. He said, "Huh... every failure makes you wiser."
He must still be in pain. Holding his stomach, which hadn't completely emptied yet, he climbed out of the tank, put his arm on Tian Bajiao's shoulders, and urged her, "Let's go, slowly. I still have stones in my stomach, and it hurts."
Tian Bajiao couldn't hear anything and looked at him in surprise: "Are you also a Shuang'er?"
"What Shuang'er?"
"It's just...hermaphrodite."
"Oh, you mean that? They wanted me to do it like this, saying it would make the birth easier, but I don't think it's any better. It's still going to split open, and it hurts like hell. Why do they say that?"
He looked at Tian Bajiao in confusion.
Tian Bajiao: ...
"I've heard the storyteller say it's none of your business. Go away."
If we continue talking, it will be dawn.
"Hiss, everyone said, slow down."
Tian Bajiao was slow to understand, and what he said was completely different.
She thought that walking in small steps was slow enough, but he had to move bit by bit, not even a little bit faster.
Tian Bajiao: "Why did you let them stuff such a big thing in there?"
"Are you blaming me? I was drunk. Who could have imagined that people were so cruel and wanted to torture me to death? Is this my fault? I was just repaying a favor with good intentions, but I was treated like this. I suffered so much, and you still blame me and say I was wrong. What did I do wrong? I just have a good heart. What's wrong with you people? You are worse than animals who don't understand emotions. Did I want something like this to happen? If you have the guts, you can scold them. Why are you scolding me?"
He became very emotional and blood started flowing down his legs again. He was in so much pain that he couldn't move a step.
Tian Bajiao: ...
"Okay, okay, it's the world that's wrong, it's the world that's wrong. What's wrong with you? It's already done, so why are you still bleeding?"
"That's nonsense! I'm injured. There's still some unmelted stone grinding inside me. How can I not bleed? It hurts so much."
"For the sake of Zhenzhu, how about I carry you back?" Tian Bajiao said sincerely.
He didn't appreciate it at all:
"No, you must be clumsy and rough. I can't stand it. It hurts when I move a little. It's better to move slowly by myself."
He looks like a rough monster, but he is more troublesome than Xue Shun.
A fleeting thought made Tian Bajiao reluctantly gain a little more patience: "Then I can be gentler, okay? You won't be able to reach it if you keep moving like this. A short pain is worse than a long one. Anyway, you are a demon, you won't die easily."
"But it hurts, and why can't I die? I almost died yesterday," he said, holding his stomach and hesitating for a long time before continuing, "Please be gentle. If I die, I won't let you go even as a ghost."
"I understand." Tian Bajiao is still a very nice person when he wants to be gentle.
The steps were very steady and he hardly felt any bumps before he was put on the bed.
Tian Bajiao turned over some clean bedding and said, "Cover yourself with it for now. Your clothes won't dry for a while, and I can't just buy you ready-made clothes. I'll go buy some fabric later, and you'll have something to wear when they're done."
"What can't be done? You are reluctant to use your spiritual power to dry it. Oh, no, you are greedy."
This clam spirit didn't know what she had been through. She huddled under the quilt, staring at her and saying,
"You are greedy for my body."
Tian Bajiao really has nothing to say: ...
"Take my advice, don't repay favors from now on, it's not easy to repay favors.
besides……"
Tian Bajiao, who was about to leave, came back.
"People have different perspectives. I don't like you."
Meeting Xue Shun alone was enough to bear, and Shen Jiao had no choice about it, but as Tian Bajiao wanted to follow her heart for the rest of her life.
She had no such idea in her mind.
Or rather, nothing at all...
Tian Bajiao fished out all the pearls and spilled the blood on the ground.
The basket of spices he sent her had been soaked in water and was unusable, so she simply crushed it.
Bury it in the soil to cover up the bloody smell in the yard.
She dismantled the basket and threw it into the stove to burn. There were two strings of copper coins at the bottom of the basket. She felt that she had worked hard and these should belong to her.
Tian Bajiao hid the money and pearls.
Then I went to deal with the quilt.
To be honest, the blood on the bed and the blood on the ground are a big trouble!
Boom boom boom.
Tian Bajiao was just feeling worried when someone knocked on the door.
"Jiaoer, open the door, I'm back."
Boss Shen didn't come back earlier or later, but he chose to come back at this time.
Tian Bajiao looked at the awful yard: ...
Will she believe me if I tell her that I killed a pig?
Tian Bajiao stuffed the quilt into the basin and poured water to wet it.
Seeing that no one opened the door in front, Boss Shen walked to the back. After knocking twice, Tian Bajiao opened the door.
"Boss, you're back! Is everything going well?"
"It went smoothly. The goods will be delivered to us soon... What are you doing?"
Tian Bajiao: "I'm having my period."
"Ah?" Boss Shen asked in surprise, "So much blood, are you having your period or slaughtering a pig?"
If there was pork, I would say kill the pig!
"It's not just mine, it's also the fish's. I've been killing a lot of fish these days. Boss, have you heard about the pearl incident?"
Tian Bajiao quickly changed the subject.
