Chapter 20 Follow
After selling all the fish, Ying Yuanxing originally wanted to buy something at the market, but after seeing that the people at the market were not very friendly, Ying Yuanxing gave up the plan of buying things without much hesitation. At worst, he could take a bus to the city to buy things. There were more things in the city than at the market, but the prices might be higher.
But Ying Yuanxing calculated and found that he didn't need to buy much, and he would make a lot of money by selling all the fish, so he didn't need to worry too much.
Ying Yuanxing packed up his things and saw the little black cat still squatting at his feet. He tentatively picked up the cat. The little black cat did not struggle, so Ying Yuanxing simply picked up the cat and walked away to the station to wait for the bus.
Ying Yuanxing didn't notice that a monster had quietly followed him. It was a group of monsters lurking in the market, and Wang Hua, who had just been captured by the little black cat, was one of them.
On weekdays, this group of weirdos didn't dare to offend the big weirdos, so they relied on Wang Hua's superb eyesight to bully the small weirdos and steal things for a living. Even if they encountered a weirdo that was stronger than them, they were outnumbered and would let it go after the other party snatched back some weird coins.
When Wang Hua was scratched by the black cat, they knew they had run into a tough guy, but if they did nothing, they would not be able to survive in the market.
Seeing Ying Yuanxing leaving alone, this group of weirdos thought they had found an opportunity and took the opportunity to follow him.
Wang Hua also came with them. After all, being scratched by the black cat was the most painful experience in his strange career. Wang Hua also wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge, but his main purpose was not just revenge.
After calming down from the severe pain, he discovered that the cat's claw was unusual. If he could replace it with his own body, Wang Hua was excited just thinking about the severe pain that the cat's claw could cause.
However, he did not tell any of his companions about this matter. He knew that if he told them, he would not be the only weirdo who wanted the cat's claw.
Wang Hua looked at the black cat greedily, but he didn't notice that his brain seemed to only be able to think of the cat's claws and nothing else, and the black mist on the wound seemed to have penetrated into the body.
The black cat held in Ying Yuanxing's arms looked back and meowed. Ying Yuanxing thought the kitten was talking to him and reached out to touch the kitten's head.
"Brother Wang, shall we take action?" Seeing that Ying Yuanxing was not on guard at all, Wang Hua asked strangely.
Wang Hua had been keeping his head down. When he looked up after hearing the words, his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, gray and hazy, and something was wrong at first glance.
The strange person who was asking the question was a little worried. He was not worried about Wang Hua, but was worried whether there was something wrong with Wang Hua's eyes. If Wang Hua's eyes were damaged, it would be a bit troublesome for them to bully other strange people.
After all, if they occasionally fail to keep their eyes open and bully the monsters that are stronger than them, they can pay money to avoid the disaster, but if it happens too many times, they can't bear it.
"Wang..." Guiyi just opened his mouth and suddenly found something wrong around him. Was there such a thick fog just now?
Moreover, in such a thick fog, why could he see Ying Yuanxing so clearly just now without noticing anything?
Where are the other weirdos that followed? Why is there no movement at all?
He looked around in panic. Although he didn't have many chances to face life-and-death crises in the market, which reduced his sense of danger, he could already smell death at this moment.
Guiyi suddenly thought of something and looked at Wang Hua. Wang Hua still had his head down and didn't react at all. Guiyi unconsciously took a step back and suddenly felt his body sinking into a cold mist. In front of him, he only saw Wang Hua suddenly raise his head, revealing his eyes covered by mist.
Then, is there this mist on his eyes?
This thought only appeared in the strange mind before it completely lost consciousness. After swallowing up the strange thing, the fog seemed to become thicker. A wisp of pure black fog floated out of Wang Hua's eyes and merged into the surrounding fog.
The confusion in Wang Hua's eyes suddenly dissipated a little, as if he came back to his senses from a dream. He was still a little at a loss when he saw the fog around him, but soon he remembered that he seemed to be following Ying Yuanxing with his companions, but where were his companions?
Wang Hua subconsciously used his ability to see through the fog and saw black ash floating on the ground. There was some strange aura attached to the black ash, and that strange aura was particularly familiar.
Is that the black cat?
Wang Hua looked forward and saw the black cat lazily lying in Ying Yuanxing's arms, licking its paws leisurely. Wang Hua was startled and turned around to escape, but he plunged into the fog and disappeared completely.
Ying Yuanxing heard some noise and looked towards the direction where the sound came from. He saw a thin figure that looked familiar. It was the thief.
Ying Yuanxing held the cat in one hand and held the axe in the other, looking at the other person nervously.
The thin figure trembled a few times, and raised his head to reveal a fairly handsome face. It seemed that he wanted to smile at Ying Yuanxing, but he couldn't control his facial features well, resulting in a somewhat distorted expression.
It's a little scary, but also a little funny.
It was the first time that Ying Yuanxing saw someone adjust his expression like this, as if he had never made such an expression before. He couldn't help but look away, otherwise he was afraid that he would laugh out loud.
But even though he was laughing, Ying Yuanxing was still a little wary. After all, the other party followed him, and it was very likely that he had bad intentions. After a careful search, Ying Yuanxing found that there was only one person on the other side, not a group of people, so he relaxed a little.
After all, if the fight really breaks out, he will be outnumbered two to one.
Facing Ying Yuanxing's vigilant and hostile gaze, the young man managed to adjust his facial expression and said, "I... I'm here to apologize. I stole your fish while you were away."
Apologize?
Ying Yuanxing frowned. He didn't think that being scratched by a cat would make people repent. He just suspected that the other party's apology might be a bigger conspiracy.
Seeing that Ying Yuanxing didn't say anything, the young man continued: "I want to go to your farm to do some work to make amends. Can you accept it?"
Ying Yuanxing was shocked. He had never revealed his background at the market, so how did the other party know that he had a farm?
The young man did not realize that he said anything scary. He just looked at Ying Yuanxing without blinking. His expression was sincere and honest, and it had an inexplicable similarity to the serious expression of the little black cat. However, when Ying Yuanxing saw his expression, he felt that the other party was acting.
Could it be that the other party is stalling for time and waiting for someone to arrive?
Ying Yuanxing was suspicious, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a bus coming in the distance from the corner of his eye. He decided to calm the young man down first and wait for him to get on the bus, as he would never be able to catch up with him.
"But working on the farm is very hard, and it's quite far from here. Are you sure you want to go?" Ying Yuanxing said.
The young man nodded indifferently. The reason why he proposed this method was that he saw that Ying Yuanxing was working too hard, so he wanted to find a tool to help Ying Yuanxing.
Ying Yuanxing took a breath. From the young man's attitude, he was sure that the other party knew the situation on the farm.
Now, of course he could run away immediately, but that would leave hidden dangers here. It would be better to trick the other party to the farm. Once he gets to the farm, it will be his territory, and then he can think about what to do next.
But before nodding, Ying Yuanxing asked inexplicably: "How much will you be paid for doing the work to make amends?"
The salary is...
The young man did not ask aloud, but searched through Wang Hua's memory and came to the conclusion that wages were money. And in Wang Hua's small team, every weirdo had to hand over a portion of the money he earned outside as the cost of the team's protection. Was this part the wages?
The young man pretended to feel in his pocket, but in fact he was touching the strange things he had swallowed before. However, the strange coins were also a manifestation of strange energy, so he swallowed those strange coins as well. Only the strange coins that Wang Hua brought with him were not eaten.
"I only have this much, is it enough?" The young man handed the ghost coins to Ying Yuanxing. The number was not much, only more than 300, and said, "If it's not enough, I'll get some more."
As for who to ask for the coins, there were plenty of strange coins in the market behind them. The young man could see that Ying Yuanxing must like strange coins very much.
Ying Yuanxing was completely confused. He remembered that the little black cat scratched the young man's hand, not caused him to hit his head. Why did it seem like there was something wrong with his brain now?
Does he still want to take the other person back?
However, after giving the money, the young man naturally came closer. Ying Yuanxing then noticed that the young man's clothes seemed to be a little torn, as if he had been in a fight. Then he thought that he came alone, could it be that he was looking for a backer? If he knew any news about the farm, he might have learned it from the village chief.
After all, he came to the market with the village chief, so if the village chief said something, it wouldn't seem strange.
No matter how conflicted he was, when the bus came, Ying Yuanxing didn't think any more and got on. He found that the driver looked familiar. It was the bus he took when he came here. The young man also got on the bus.
After Ying Yuanxing paid the fare, he saw the young man staring at the ticket machine, and the driver had not yet closed the door, obviously reminding the other party to pay.
Wait, it seems like the other party gave him all the money.
Ying Yuanxing was hesitating whether to pay the fare, when he saw the young man looking at him and said, "This car is too old and can't run anymore. You can take me back."
