Guanzhong Tomb Robbery Notes

Chapter 432: Farewell, the ghost knocking on the door in the middle of the night

"my face?"

Han Bin raised his hand and rubbed his face back and forth.

Bewilderedly, he said, "My face... doesn't feel like anything."

He sounded uncertain.

After all, the feeling of touch is not as good as seeing it with your own eyes.

But it was dark in the middle of the night and there was no mirror, not even a ditch to be found, so he couldn't see what was happening on his face.

At this time, Huang Ziran retreated to my side and Uncle Zheng's side.

Still staring at Han Bin in horror: "There's a curse mark on your face!"

"You can't feel it!"

“Even ordinary people can’t tell!”

Han Bin blinked.

His expression immediately relaxed and he laughed, "Haha, I knew you were bluffing."

I also think Huang Ziran is bluffing.

But his bluff is definitely not that simple.

Thinking about the things he did to test me before, it was enough to prove that he must have a back-up plan for his bluff.

I glanced sideways at Huang Ziran.

Sure enough, he was trying very hard to suppress the corners of his mouth to prevent himself from laughing.

"Hmph!" Huang Ziran snorted loudly.

He gritted his teeth, pretending to be angry because he was not trusted, and shouted angrily: "You know shit!"

"I've learned the art of seeing qi from a master, and I can see things that ordinary people can't see!"

"The curse on your face is a bat-shaped pattern!"

"There will surely be a large number of bats coming for you tonight!"

Huang Ziran said this with great confidence.

Han Bin, however, was full of disdain: "Just stop acting."

"I know you're trying to trick me with the curse."

"Then they'll say that if you want to break the curse, you have to go to Zhifangtou Village or something like that."

"Since our acquaintance is fate, I won't say anything unpleasant."

"Let's part ways amicably!"

Han Bin clasped his fists and bowed to us, performing the proper farewell ceremony.

Huang Ziran sucked his teeth and stamped his feet vigorously: "You are really a dog biting Lu Dongbin who doesn't know how to appreciate a good person!"

"You'll regret it if you leave!"

"Maybe there's a way out if we go to the paper mill!"

"Hahaha!" Han Bin laughed proudly towards the sky.

"What did I just say? I knew you would trick me into going to Zhifangtou."

"That's impossible. Goodbye!"

Han Bin turned around and walked away without any hesitation.

The moment Han Bin turned around, Huang Ziran's suppressed smile finally bloomed on his face.

In an instant, her smile was like a blooming peony.

I even laughed to tears.

"Ouch, my stomach is twisting from laughing so hard."

"Help me up quickly."

I hurriedly supported Huang Ziran who was laughing silently.

I wondered, “Just let him go like that?”

"The three of us went to Zhifangtou Village, but we were completely unfamiliar with the place."

Han Bin is definitely a local tyrant.

If something really happens, let him run back to his father-in-law's village for help, maybe it will help.

But what if the three of us went to Zhifangtou Village?

Whether it is flattened or rounded is up to Old Man Qin.

So I think Han Bin cannot be allowed to leave.

Huang Ziran chuckled.

As smug as a weasel who has successfully stolen a chicken: "He can't get far."

"Within five minutes, they'll come running back to me crying and begging for mercy."

five minutes?

I looked up at the night sky.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the breeze makes the leaves sway gently.

Occasionally one or two birds fly by.

But there was not even a shadow of a bat.

The vegetation here is not lush, and there is no dark and humid environment suitable for bats to live.

In the past, even if we encountered bats, there were only one or two.

How could Huang Ziran be so sure that a group of bats would appear?

While I was thinking about it, suddenly several small black shadows flashed across the night sky at an extremely fast speed.

It's a bat!

Just as I was surprised, a dozen small black shadows flew past quickly.

The direction they flew was exactly the direction Han Bin left!

I pointed to the sky in surprise: "Bat...it's really a bat!"

Huang Ziran put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky leisurely.

He said lightly: "I can't say for five minutes."

Whoosh!

More bats streaked across the sky.

They flew densely in the direction where Han Bin left.

There are so many that it is impossible to count them.

I estimate that there are at least two or three hundred.

I couldn't help but ask, "This isn't a mountain, where do all these bats come from?"

Uncle Zheng grinned and said, "You are short-sighted."

"Who told you that bats are all in the mountains?"

"The cracks in the eaves and the holes in the treetops are all suitable habitats for bats."

"It's just that bats hide during the day and come out at night."

"People don't go out much at night, so you rarely see bats."

In those days, power outages were common in the city, let alone in the village.

Even in villages with electricity, villagers still use oil lamps to save electricity bills.

So I rarely go out at night.

Naturally, bats are rarely seen.

Another thing is that bats fly very fast, and it is indeed difficult to see them at night if you are not paying special attention.

I then asked, "But how did so many bats come out together?"

"And they were all heading in the direction Han Bin left."

“It’s like someone is controlling me.”

I turned my head and looked at Huang Ziran.

He speculated, "Could it be that the leading bat is the poisonous insect you raised?"

"Fuck the insect."

Huang Ziran curled his lips and said, "It's just some underworld tricks that are not worth telling to outsiders."

Seeing that he was hiding it and not telling me, my curiosity grew even more.

Uncle Zheng patted me lightly on the shoulder.

He laughed and said, "The more you ask, the less he will say."

"When no one asked, he just showed off."

Huang Ziran glared at Uncle Zheng Er.

"Good on you, Old Zheng, for tearing me down in front of the young people."

"If you can, tell me what method I used."

Uncle Zheng pulled me aside and said softly, "He's using underworld tactics."

"In the past, people in the underworld would pretend to be ghosts by pretending to be ghosts, like ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night."

"One of them is to smear eel blood on the other party's front door at night."

"Because the eel has a strong bloody smell that attracts bats."

"When the bat hits the door, it makes a constant banging sound."

"There's constant knocking on the door in the middle of the night, and when you open it, there's no one outside. Even the bravest person would be frightened to death..."

This was a method used by gangsters in the past to make money and take revenge.

Seeing that his trick had been exposed, Huang Ziran followed up the conversation and said, "The night I stayed at Old Zheng's house, I went to the canal and caught two eels to draw their blood."

"I originally thought it would be better to be prepared."

"That knowledge came in handy so soon."

"The reason I strangled Han Bin just now was to secretly smear eel blood on the back of his neck."

"That bluff just now, plus the bat came true."

"That should make him obey our orders."

The word "order" makes me feel uncomfortable.

Come to think of it, I seem to be being ordered around by him...

At this time, Han Bin's cry for help was heard: "Help, Brother Huang, come and save me!"

When he called for help, hundreds of bats swarmed towards him.

Soon he was overwhelmed by the swarm of bats.

Lying on the ground, he let out heart-wrenching screams.

It was as if the bats were scratching and biting him.

I vaguely felt that something was wrong: "Isn't this scream too miserable?"

"Will the bat bite him to death?"
