It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 582 Si Xue: Solve the trouble you caused and come back

"I've already talked to the sewer guys, when are you planning on going?"

The call was connected, Liu Zheng said.

"We can do it anytime!"

Li Ziming said excitedly.

"Then ask your friends to gather at your house first, and come over when I notify you."

"Do you need to make any preparations? Mr. Liu."

Li Ziming asked.

"Please prepare everything you need for the party. There's no place to buy things in the sewer. Also, you can have fun, but don't do anything that will make me angry."

"If you don't understand, ask your dad. The consequences of my anger are very serious."

He said calmly.

"I understand. My dad has already told me about you, Mr. Liu. You are awesome!"

Li Ziming said sincerely.

The deputy director's family education was relatively strict, so although Li Ziming was not a good boy, he had never done anything extremely evil.

Of course, if you say that he is indignant about things like the 11th floor, that's nonsense.

But as children, no matter whether they are good or bad, their desire to be strong never changes.

No matter from which angle you look at it, Liu Zheng's record can be described as terrifying.

"Do what I ask you to do, and you will have great opportunities in the future, and there will be plenty of them."

Liu Zheng said arrogantly.

"Yes!"

Li Ziming replied loudly.

After hanging up the phone, he thought about it and called Nightingale again.

He couldn't possibly stay in the sewer and play with these rich second-generations, and the fisherman didn't have the patience to watch over kids, so he had to find an adult who could calm the situation down.

Since Nightingale can deal with Li Ziming, he can naturally deal with others as well.

Moreover, she is a rich second-generation and the future heir to the family, so her status can also suppress these little brats.

"Why are you calling me like this? You have a morning erection and want me to flirt with you over the phone?"

It took Nightingale a while to answer the phone.

"That's right, I'm taking a shower now~"

She dragged out the last syllable of her voice.

"Aren't you a doll? You'll get rusty if you get wet, right?"

Liu Zheng asked with concern.

".When you are annoying, you are really annoying."

Nightingale choked and said unhappily.

"No matter how perfect a person is, they still have flaws. Let's get down to business. I'll be here to be your after-school teacher for a while."

He told him about Uncle Ba Tiao's request and Li Ziming's plan to hold a party in the sewer.

"Why do you always assign me this kind of babysitting job? Even if you ask me to seduce the enemy?"

Nightingale complained.

"Isn't it because you are needed to protect the Ama? Who else can take on this important task besides you?"

Liu Zheng asked back.

"Yeah, that's true. Well, I'll reluctantly forgive your wasteful behavior."

Nightingale said proudly.

"By the way, where is the Ama?"

"I just came back from dropping her off at work."

Nightingale replied.

"That's great. Then you can go to the deputy director's house and bring those kids to Rose Street."

He said.

"What? Aren't you afraid that I'll be kidnapped by those bald asses if I go out alone?"

"Then I'll ask the Extreme Flavor Team to pick you up."

Liu Zheng said.

"Forget it, let them come. It's hard to say who will protect whom."

Nightingale rolled her eyes and hung up the phone.

She said this purely out of anger. No matter how bad the Jiwei Group is, they can still beat her up alone.

Of course, as a lady from a wealthy family, she might have some hidden tricks that he doesn't know about.

Speaking of the Jiwei Group, Liu Zheng did intend to ask them to do something, but this call could not be made in the lounge.

"Why do I feel like you are plotting against me?"

The cows and horses suddenly looked over.

"No, it's impossible, sir, you are wrong."

He directly denied the three consecutive.

How can something that is good for cattle and horses be considered calculating?

But these strong men are really sharp in their senses, or is he too relaxed and did not hide his thoughts?

"Hmph, you better not let me catch you, kid."

The cows and horses tapped Liu Zheng with their hooves.

It didn't believe Liu Zheng's denial. Being able to move from being a food ingredient to being the head of the takeaway department, and having been in that position for so many years, its intuition about danger would only be stronger than the latter's.

Of course, the cows and horses didn't feel any danger.

That's why it just gave a casual warning instead of taking decisive action.

"Too much suspicion is heartbreaking, sir."

Liu Zheng advised.

"I have so many thick intestines that they won't break even if you do."

Niuma said proudly.

"By the way, are your intestines from cows or horses?"

he asked with some curiosity.

"of course"

The cow and horse swallowed back the answer that was about to come out of its mouth.

It stood still, staring straight ahead, as if it saw the intestines hanging on the racks, some dry, some wet, some half dry, some half wet.
"Boss, are you okay?"

Liu Zheng asked proactively.

When he asked this question, he was already prepared to be beaten up by cattle and horses.

However, the cows and horses just glanced at him, then walked back to the haystack, lay down with their heads facing the wall, and did not move.

"Ugh!"

Liu Zheng sighed.

He really wasn't being mean this time, but he was definitely bringing up something that was not relevant.

It’s just that there are so many dirty and sad things in the metropolis that sometimes he doesn’t even know where the minefields are.

After waiting in silence for a while, the ghost hand did not come, but Niu Ma's cell phone rang.

"Hello, Boss. OK, I'll turn on the speakerphone right away."

Niu Ma answered the call and turned on the speakerphone.

"Go out and solve the problem you caused. If you can't solve it, buy yourself a grave."

Si Xue's cold voice sounded, and then she hung up the phone.

"what?"

Her incoherent words made Liu Zheng a little confused.

He's caused a lot of trouble outside, who is this person?

"What are you thinking about? Get out of here right now."

Niuma urged.

"Boss, can you lend me your commemorative medal?"

Liu Zheng said cautiously.

"Take it and go quickly."

Niuma threw the commemorative medal directly to him.

"So straightforward? It can be seen that you really want to be alone for a while."

Liu Zheng shrugged, left the lounge and came out of the restaurant.

When he saw the brass bullets floating in the air and the skinny horse strolling around bored, he immediately knew what the trouble was.

"Sir, has Chihaya's soul been found?"

Liu Zheng asked respectfully.

The skinny horse nodded and then shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean."

He said it bluntly.

The skinny horse didn't answer, but just raised a hoof and pointed at its back.

"Are you going to take me back to the cemetery?"

he asked.

The skinny horse nodded.

"Then I'll just call a car and go myself. I really feel bad for asking you to carry me personally."

Liu Zheng said quickly.

The skinny horse rolled his eyes, suddenly grabbed his clothes and threw him onto his back.

"Please wait a moment, sir."

Seeing that the skinny horse was about to start, Liu Zheng quickly spoke.

The skinny horse put down its hooves politely, turned around and looked at him with its big eyes.

"I have some important things to do here. If the gravekeeper wants me to go and rob the tomb, please put in a few good words for me and postpone the time."

Liu Zheng whispered in its ear, and a handful of banknotes and dried fish slipped into its bag.

"唏伦~"

The skinny horse snorted, neither nodding nor shaking its head. Its body leaned back slightly, its front legs pushed hard against the ground, and its hind legs quickly followed. After a standard sprint, the man and the horse arrived in front of the cemetery archway.

"Thank you for giving me a ride."

Liu Zheng dismounted from his horse and saluted.

"唏伦~"

To his surprise, the skinny horse stood up and returned the greeting with its hoof.

"Haha, you are also a man of passion."

Liu Zheng smiled heartily.

"By the way, do you drink, sir?"

He remembered and asked.

The skinny horse nodded vigorously.

"Okay, I'll bring some back to you, Brother Ma, when I go to Du Kang Winery."

Liu Zheng hit the snake with a stick.

When the skinny horse heard the words "Dukang Winery", its eyes widened wider than those of cows and horses.

It stood up, held Liu Zheng's shoulders and turned him around.

It took a furtive look at the other side of the archway, then took out an empty wine bottle from its bag.

A golden old man wearing a helmet is embedded in the black bottle, and the rest of the bottle is engraved with mysterious words.

"It looks familiar."

Liu Zheng took out "The Hell Before Our Eyes" and found that the words on the bottle were the same as those on the scabbard.

The auction house said that the text on it is runes, so this old man should be Odin, the main god of the Norse pantheon?
"Brother Ma, do you want me to get you another bottle of the same wine?"

he asked tentatively.

"唏伦~"

The skinny horse nodded and then shook his head.

"Brother Ma means that we should buy this bottle of wine and the other wines as well?"

Liu Zheng seemed to understand a little.

"Xilulu!"

The skinny horse nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, I promise to complete the task."

He agreed readily.

Liu Zheng finally discovered that the average person in the metropolis is an alcoholic.

It was a rare opportunity to buy wine on business, so he might as well buy more at one time, hoping he could make a fortune by reselling it.

"唏伦~"

The skinny horse held him down and then walked into the archway himself.

A few minutes later, a hoof stretched out and hooked towards Liu Zheng.

He instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell why.

But since he would be killed whether he showed his head or not, he resolutely stepped over the archway.

When Liu Zheng saw the skinny horse hanging in the air, he realized what was wrong.

The outstretched horse hoof is facing backwards.

Shouma looked at him, then turned his head away awkwardly.

"Mr. Gravekeeper, what is this?"

"punish."

The gravekeeper said expressionlessly.

"It's my fault. I shouldn't have let Brother Ma speak for me."

Liu Zheng confessed.

Of course, he didn't say anything about being willing to take the punishment for the skinny horse.

He may not be able to endure the punishment that a skinny horse can endure.

"It should be punished for staying outside. It's just a matter of a week or a month."

The gravekeeper said calmly.

"Is that so? Thank you for your hard work, Brother Ma. I will come to visit you when I have time."

Liu Zheng looked at the skinny horse with sympathy on his face.

"Xilulu???"

There was human shock and confusion in the skinny horse's eyes.

Watching the interaction between the man and the horse, the gravekeeper smiled silently.

"How's the fire gathering going?"

he asked.

"Two flames have been collected so far, and the third flame is already being collected. Oh, and I also got this."

Liu Zheng demonstrated "The dumplings' gratitude".

The flame in the pipe should also be enhanced using the second effect of this item.

"Where's the pipe?"

The gravekeeper asked.

"The pipe was taken away to collect the fourth type of flame. By the way, the pipe has now been upgraded to a 'super fire-resistant pipe'."

he replied.

"Yeah. Considering your ability, your efficiency is indeed very high."

The gravekeeper hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

"As long as you're satisfied."

Liu Zheng is humble.

"How long do you want to postpone it?"

The gravekeeper asked.

"How about the day after tomorrow, Mr. Gravekeeper?"

he asked carefully.

"At least seven kinds of flames."

The gravekeeper made the number seven gesture.

"no problem."

Including the rage of "Seven Deadly Sins: Wrath", he has already collected five kinds of flames, so it shouldn't be difficult to find two more.

"Ah."

The gravekeeper took out an ivory pillow from the skinny horse's saddlebag.

The pillow itself is hollow, and the six sides are carved with patterns related to the sun, moon, spring, summer, autumn and winter.

"This is?"

"This is the person you're looking for."

The gravekeeper replied.

"what?"

Could it be that Chihaya is actually a pillow that has turned into a spirit?
"No, the pillow is just a carrier and a medium at the same time."

The gravekeeper saw what he was thinking and shook his head to explain.

"I do not quite understand."

Liu Zheng said frankly.

"Do you know 'worm'?"

The gravekeeper asked.

"Insects or 'Zerg'?"

"Neither. In some places, 'bugs' is a general term for a type of life. Some of them look like insects, while others are not; some are visible, while others are invisible. People there believe that they are the most primitive life or 'thoughts' of nature."

"The forms and habits of the 'bugs' are all different, but what they all have in common is that they all have abilities that are difficult for extraordinary people to understand."

"And the Chihaya you are looking for is one of those 'bugs'. To be more precise, it is the product of the combination of 'bug' and 'dream'."

"She is like life but not life, like existence but not existence. So after she died, she had no real soul and could only turn back into a 'worm' form and return to the host's dream."

The gravekeeper introduced.

"So it's this pillow that's dreaming?"

"No, it is the soul of the host that is dreaming in this pillow."

The gravekeeper shook his head.

"Wow, it's a Russian nesting doll. How can I meet Chihaya?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"dream."

"Are you saying I have to sleep on my pillow in order to see Chihaya?"

He was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately.

"That's right. And be careful, once the host's soul is awakened, Chihaya will cease to exist completely."

The gravekeeper said.

"That's so troublesome. Can we change the host?"

Liu Zheng asked.

It would be much more convenient if Chihaya could be transplanted into Porco Rosso's dream.

"No. They are inseparable. Once the two are separated, the host's soul and Chihaya's existence will disappear at the same time."

The gravekeeper shook his head.

"Okay. Then is there a way to keep the host's soul asleep forever?"

He settled for the next best thing.

Although this is not fair to Chihaya's host, he can only help his relatives at this time.

"There are many. Which one do you want to hear?"

The gravekeeper asked.

“Naturally, the one with the best value for money.”

Liu Zheng smiled and said.
