C49 drinking rainwater

I had once seen a reflection in a mirror, so I knew clearly in my heart that Little Tang Wei was probably going to be tricked.

Sure enough, Little Tang Wei only took a glance at the mirror and her body froze.

She was not the same person in the mirror as I was. She was pale and had her eyes closed, like a corpse.

But soon, the image in the mirror turned rosy and it slowly opened its eyes. Little Tang Wei outside the mirror fell to the ground with a thump.

The strange thing was, Little Tang Wei fell, but she did not fall in the mirror. Instead, she revealed a sly smile. After a few seconds, the grin faded and she began to look around blankly, as if she didn't know what had happened.

The jewelry seller aunty walked over to Little Tang Wei's side and threw away all of her jewelry. She then reached out her right hand and placed it on top of Little Tang Wei's head.

I saw that the grandma's body was getting fainter and fainter and more transparent. After a moment, she disappeared mysteriously.

In the next second, Little Tang Wei stood up. She straightened her clothes and walked around the yard, nodding in satisfaction. Then, she wrapped a piece of cloth around the mirror and placed it inside the Inside the house. After locking the door, she slowly walked away.

As the Little Tang Wei walked further away, our surroundings became very quiet. Bao Xiaojie and I slid down the wall. We looked at each other, then looked at each other.

After a while, I said to Bao Xiaojie: "Little Tang Wei, have I been carried away by a ghost?"

Bao Xiaojie said: "To be more precise, I should borrow the corpse to return the soul. Her soul is locked in the mirror. "

I asked Bao Xiaojie: "If I hadn't covered my right eye in time, would I have done the same?"

Bao Xiaojie nodded his head, "Those three Little Tang Wei's who are called brother or sister, should also be locked up. hmph hmph, circling around a woman all day, what good results can there be? "

I sighed helplessly. "Why did the topic change again?"

I patted Bao Xiaojie's shoulders. "You were like this back then, you were imprisoned in a mirror?"

Bao Xiaojie replied, "Yes. But then the mirror was broken and I escaped. People have escaped from the mirror, but there's no way to leave this damn place.

He said to me, "Brother Hu, what are you doing in the rainy market?"

I said, "Find someone to buy something."

Bao Xiaojie sighed, then said to me: "Are you an antique wielder too? Listen to me, this is too risky. Do you know why the peddlers are so enthusiastic about you? Because they saw that you were alive. "

Surprised, I asked Bao Xiaojie, "They saw through it?"

Bao Xiaojie nodded.

I said, "That doesn't make sense. "My clothes were taken from the corpses. The corpse clothes can cover up the living, how could they tell?"

Bao Xiaojie said: "These clothes can indeed mask the anger of living people, but Brother Hu, you were too careless, you forgot to change your shoes."

I looked down and saw that the shoes were still mine.

Bao Xiaojie said while standing beside me, "Actually, logically speaking, this set of clothes should be enough, but the hawkers here look forward to the stars, look forward to the moon, and hope for a living person. Someone had finally come in. He must have seen you from the bottom of your foot to the top of your head. You're not wearing a dark shoe, that's the flaw. They're suspicious, and it's easy to tell if you're alive or dead. "

I remembered walking down the alley with the bean curd stall owner, but he hadn't noticed the sound of my footsteps. I thought he had overlooked it, but now it seems that he knew I was alive from the start and pretended not to see through me.

Bao Xiaojie said: "Rain market, with ghosts in, it will be hard to get out again. These ghosts would return the dead to their souls and use the bodies of living people to leave this place. But there were few living people, and to avoid a fight they set up stalls on the road. Whoever this person buys belongs to. No one is allowed to interfere. "

"Of course, if you meet someone who doesn't listen to reason, you will also start fighting. However, recently, everyone has been following the rules and there aren't any evil spirits that cause trouble. "

I nodded. I finally understood why the owner of the tofu brain lied to me to let me eat his bowl of tofu brain.

I stretched my arms and legs, thinking: Luckily I did not die, and met Bao Xiaojie in this place, if not, I would have been locked in the mirror for a long time.

I said to Bao Xiaojie, "Don't you have a way to go out? What is it? "

Bao Xiaojie said: "I've been asking around here for a long time. There's only one person surnamed Gu who can come and go as he pleases in this damned place, and they all call him Old Gu. "

I was shocked and blurted out, "Grandpa Gu?"

Bao Xiaojie was a little doubtful: "You are his grandson? "That's not right, isn't your surname Hu?"

I felt a little awkward. "I have a friend who calls him Grandpa Gu, so that's what I'll call him."

Bao Xiaojie said, "Oh, I plan to sneak over to Old Gu's place and hide in his house to observe for a while to see what he can do. You can leave after you learn his skills. "

I smiled and said to Bao Xiaojie: "Don't trouble yourself, I'm here to discuss business with him. He should have sent me out. I'll take you out when the time comes. "

Who would have thought that after I said these words, Bao Xiaojie's face did not show any happiness, but was instead filled with terror: "No, definitely not. What if Old Gu went back on his word? "Not only will you not be able to get out, I will also not be able to secretly learn his skills."

I replied, "He won't go back on his words, right?"

I said it out loud, but my heart was pounding. Because I don't really trust Grandpa Gu. Didn't he still want to kill me at the supply club?

Although he really wants to trade with me, but what about after the deal? If he killed me and took away Xia Xin's things and didn't give me that fan, wouldn't he have made a huge profit?

No, no. Xia Xin only asked me to trade, not bring anything in. Grandpa Gu didn't see anything, so he shouldn't kill me so recklessly, right? Xia Xin really had foresight. Could she have guessed at this point?

But then I felt something was wrong. This set of clothes was given to me by Grandpa Gu. From my top to my pants, they are very complete. But they were missing a pair of shoes. He's been hanging around in the rain market for so many years, he should know that without his shoes, it's easy for people to see through me. Was he doing it on purpose? You want to harm me?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this matter was rather complicated.

Seeing that I was in a dilemma, Bao Xiaojie hesitated and patted my shoulder, then said: "Brother Hu, I am in a relationship with you, so I advise you not to trust them here, otherwise, if you get sold, you will have to help me count the money."

After saying those words, I felt a little embarrassed. I smiled and said, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

Bao Xiaojie said, "What do you want to trade with Old Gu for? Does he have any antiques? Why don't you listen to me and we'll sneak over to their house. "What do you like about antiques? Can't you just steal from him before you leave?"

I thought: Stealing Grandpa Gu's things, then wouldn't I be tired of living? Can you spare me when he goes out? Even if they didn't leave any evidence, what evidence did these evil spirits need? As long as I'm sure I did it, I'm finished.

But I don't mind hiding at Grandpa Gu's house to observe for a while to see what kind of goods he is. I wonder what his purpose is?

So I nodded towards Bao Xiaojie: "I'll do as you say."

Bao Xiaojie was elated, he rubbed his fists together and said to me: "Brother Hu, you are truly a straightforward person, I have come to work with you, that's right."

I thought to myself: am I such a straightforward person? It seems that I just promised him that I will make him so happy that he won't be able to find the north anymore.

Bao Xiaojie took me to find Grandpa Gu, then we started traveling through the small alley.

Suddenly, a small door in the depths of the alley opened, and a person walked out. This person seemed to be the brother of Little Tang Wei.

I was startled and was about to say something to the man to tell him something was wrong. But Bao Xiaojie pulled on my sleeves worriedly.

I immediately understood that the person currently living in this body was most likely an old ghost.

Sure enough, he looked at me, then at Bao Xiaojie, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

Fortunately, he didn't pay any attention to us. It seemed that this old geezer was in a hurry to leave the Rain City and didn't want to cause any trouble.

Seeing that the man had left, Bao Xiaojie heaved a sigh of relief and brought me into a dilapidated courtyard.

I frowned and said to Bao Xiaojie: "Grandpa Gu is in this broken courtyard?"

Bao Xiaojie said, "Definitely not. What kind of person was Old Gu? How could he live in this crappy place? The yard was so rotten that not even ghosts would be happy to come. However, it has one good thing, it's not far from Old Gu's house. I dug a tunnel here, and we unknowingly arrived at his house. "

I gave him a thumbs up. "You're not bad. You're really capable."

Bao Xiaojie laughed bitterly: "In this kind of damned place, you have to learn to be capable no matter what."

He did not immediately take me to the tunnel. Instead, he took out a cracked bowl and placed it in the rain to collect the water. As I took it, I said to me, "Brother Hu, let's drink some rain water to keep our breath down. Old Gu is a weird guy, someone said he can smell hell. "

Very quickly, Bao Xiaojie received a bowl of rain, drank it all in one gulp, and then helped me receive another bowl.

I knew that the rain was actually the tears of the loved ones of the dead, and it kept washing over me day and night in the rain market. So I picked up the bowl.

I wanted to drink, and then I saw my face reflected in the water. Only, my reflection is a little different from mine. Its face was pale and its eyes were closed. Immediately, my eyelids started to feel heavy, and I couldn't help but want to close my eyes.

Damn it! The rain in the bowl was actually a mirror.
