Judging from Li Mao's bewildered expression, Zhao Youliang was certain that the two "mischievous little devils" hadn't kicked his crotch.
Do they just enjoy kicking me? I didn't do anything to them...
While lamenting his bad luck, Zhao Youliang handed all the "life-threatening money" to Li Mao.
Li Mao instinctively took it and was immediately startled.
"What are you doing giving me this quantum thing? Is it some kind of ghost trying to use it to harm me?!"
Zhao Youliang chuckled: "It's not for you, it's for you to deliver to Mayor Guo."
"I should have given him this evil thing when I delivered the message, but I forgot."
"But it's not too late now."
Zhao Youliang paused for a moment at this point: "Li Mao, I have a feeling that the five major surnames in the town are definitely not simple."
"For example, back when the previous mayor was in charge, how was he able to invite the red-robed lama so quickly?"
"If it were us, we wouldn't even have met them, let alone invited them!"
Zhao Youliang's words resonated deeply with Li Mao: "Yes."
“I drive around the world every day with people, and I’ve never heard of any lamas here, let alone seen one.”
"Quantum, so what do you mean?"
Zhao Youliang said with a wicked smile, "What I mean is, let's not meddle in other people's business. Whoever lacks morality should take responsibility."
"So, after you deliver the 'life-threatening money' to the man surnamed Guo, go and stay at your father-in-law's house to be with your wife and children."
"Anyway, the evil spirits will definitely target people from the five major surnames first when they come to claim lives. Let's observe and see what happens."
Li Mao nodded repeatedly in agreement, finding Zhao Youliang's analysis reasonable.
And this guy is quite despicable: when he gave Guo Zhengde the "money to kill him," he was afraid Guo wouldn't accept it, so he secretly put it in Guo's briefcase...
Time flew by and night fell in the blink of an eye. Because many more people had died in the past two days, the atmosphere was so oppressive that business at the barbecue restaurant was particularly slow.
However, Sister-in-law Yingchun didn't care about this and even comforted Zhao Youliang, saying, "Just consider it a holiday for the two of us sisters."
It really felt like a holiday: it wasn't even 10 p.m., and there wasn't a single customer left in the entire barbecue restaurant.
You should know that this is usually the busiest time for business.
Seeing this, Sister Yingchun simply let the barbecue chef and the only waiter go home as well, so that everyone could rest for the night.
Just as Zhao Youliang and Sister Yingchun finished tidying up and were about to close the shop, a police car suddenly stopped in front of the barbecue restaurant.
The person who got out of the car was Xiao Zhao, who was wearing a police uniform.
With a mournful face, Xiao Zhao walked straight up to Zhao Youliang: "Liangzi, I saw that 'person' dragging the sack again, and this time I saw it very clearly!"
"He was wearing clothes from the Republican era, and he even talked to me and smiled at me..."
Seeing that Xiao Zhao's face was pale and he was trembling slightly, Zhao Youliang quickly pulled him down to sit.
Sister-in-law Yingchun poured a cup of hot water and handed it to her.
Zhao Youliang then asked, "Brother Zhao, are you sure you didn't see wrong?"
"Is that thing so sinister? It dares to go to the police station?"
Police officer Xiao Zhao gave a wry smile upon hearing this: "He didn't come in. I saw him on my way back from a call."
"I originally planned to pretend I didn't see him, but every time I passed him, he would appear in front of me, more than ten times in a row."
"The last time, because of the road conditions, I could only drive slowly, and then... and then he suddenly pressed his whole face against my windshield!"
"It scared me so much I almost crashed into a house on the side of the road!"
After listening to what the police officer, Xiao Zhao, said and imagining the scene at the time, Zhao Youliang couldn't help but shudder.
"Brother Zhao, as far as I know, you don't allow one person to go on a call alone. Your colleagues can't see him?"
Speaking of this, Xiao Zhao was on the verge of tears.
"Don't even mention quantum mechanics!"
"I don't know if it's just bad luck, but there are a lot of police calls tonight."
"We had no choice but to split up and run around!"
"If I had a colleague with me, that evil thing might not dare to show itself!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Youliang also felt that Xiao Zhao did indeed seem like an unlucky fellow.
"Brother Zhao, didn't you just say that something dirty was talking to you? What did it say?"
Recalling the scene, Xiao Zhao's hand holding the water glass began to tremble again.
"Actually, he didn't say it directly. I guessed it from his lips because his pale green face was pressed against the windshield."
"He told me to follow him, to dig them all out, and to avenge them..."
Xiao Zhao's words contained a great deal of information, so much so that Zhao Youliang took a while to process it.
"Brother Zhao, it seems this is why the evil spirit has come after you. It doesn't want to harm you."
"If we want to resolve this matter completely, we have no choice but to do as he says."
"Let's see what injustices he, or rather they, has suffered."
After Zhao Youliang finished speaking, Officer Xiao Zhao became even more frightened.
"Quantum, you're not serious, are you? We're really going to dig up dead people?!"
"Besides, judging from his clothes, he's clearly from the Republican era. Even if we dig him up, what difference would it make?"
"The person who harmed him is long dead, how can we help him seek justice and get revenge!"
Xiao Zhao's words reminded Zhao Youliang: Why is it the Republic of China again!
Could it be that the dirty things dragging sacks were together with the coffin?
So, their enemies are all Guo Zhengde and his ilk, or rather, they are all the result of their ancestors' immoral and sinful deeds!
Upon realizing this, Zhao Youliang suddenly understood.
It seems that to solve the problem at its root, we need to start with the town mayor and his gang; the one who tied the knot must untie it.
However, if I were to ask so rashly, they definitely wouldn't tell me.
Who would willingly hand over their secrets to someone else?
Unless Guo Zhengde and his gang are truly at their wits' end...
Speak of the devil and he shall appear:
Just as Zhao Youliang was pondering Guo Zhengde, he saw him walk over with an extremely fat red-robed lama.
At the same time, there was a large group of people surrounding him – all of whom were Guo Zhengde's confidants, that is, native locals.
In the blink of an eye, the red-robed lama was already not far from Zhao Youliang.
He was not only fat, but also had a face full of fat.
They looked like fierce demons, showing no trace of the compassion of a monk.
Even though he's gotten this fat, he still walks around gnawing on a leg of lamb, his mouth dripping with oil.
When he got to Zhao Youliang, he stretched out his greasy hand.
"Give me back the prayer wheel and the human skin drum; they are our Tantric treasures!"
If the fat lama had been more polite and spoken to him properly, Zhao Youliang might have actually given it to him.
After all, Zhao Youliang felt uncomfortable keeping a drum made of human skin by his side.
However, the other party's commanding tone and matter-of-fact attitude made Zhao very unhappy.
Adding to the conflict with Guo Zhengde... Zhao Youliang chuckled and decided to play dumb.
If the fat lama gets so angry that he hits me... that would be great!
Just lie down on the ground, and you'll make money!
