The strange case of the demon book

"Zhang Jue." Huo Wencai waved at Zhang Jue.Zhang Jue smiled at Huo Wencai: "Morning." Zhang Jue's face was already quite pale, but today his face became even paler, and there was hardly a trace of blood on his face.

"Morning. Where are you going?" Huo Wen stepped forward and said.He suppressed the worries in his heart, he hoped that Zhang Jue could be honest with himself one day, instead of asking himself.

"Go to a restaurant for morning tea." Zhang Jue said with a smile.

"Together."

"it is good."

The two went to a restaurant on Taiping Street where Zhang Jue often went to drink morning tea.

"Master Zhang is here, please come inside." The waiter greeted him.

"Well, as usual. Two servings today."

"Okay." So the restaurant waiter went to prepare morning tea.

During the interval when the hostess brought the morning tea, Huo Wen asked, "I saw you leave in a hurry last night. Are you okay?" Last night's nightmare tormented him all night.

He knew it was just a dream, but the reality of this dream made Huo Wen terrified.

"It's okay, I just have something to go back early." Zhang Jue replied with a smile.

"It's good that nothing happened. The missing children have been sent back. It's really thanks to you for your help. If it weren't for you, those children would not have been found, but why did that ghost thing attack the children?" Huo Wen said with a frown.

"There is someone manipulating her behind her, and the man who is manipulating her is in Guangzhou," Zhang Jue said.

"Do you know who it is?"

Zhang Jue shook his head: "I don't know. But I'm afraid he is a troublesome person."

"It's not a good person to be able to attack innocent children. If you let me know who it is, I'll shoot him directly!" Huo Wencai said fiercely.It is not an exaggeration to say that the person who can do something to a child is ruthless. If he meets that person, Huo Wen will really kill him.Such scourges in the world will only bring chaos and panic to this restless world and the city of Guangzhou.

Therefore, he will not be merciful.Anyway, I already had human life on my hands.

"The other party knows sorcery, it's better to be careful." Zhang Jue said.

"With you here, I'm not afraid." Huo Wencai showed Zhang Jue a trusting smile.

But upon hearing Huo Wencai's words and seeing his smile like this, Zhang Jue was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Okay."

I never thought there would be such a stupid person in this world...

After the host served morning tea to the two, the two began to eat.Zhang Jue eats very politely, while Huo Wencai is a rough guy.Watching Zhang Jue slowly eating his morning tea, he behaved very well.

Huo Wencai exclaimed in his heart: he is indeed a son of a family.

After it was over, Huo Wencai bid farewell to Zhang Jue and went back to the red room, where Shitong waited for Huo Wencai with Ke Ke.Seeing these two children, Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui brought up the matter of bringing Shitong to sell things.

"Have you thought of selling anything?" Ma Wenrui said.

"Selling women's rouge powder and earrings and jewelry." Huo Wencai said.

"This is not bad. If this child goes to sell, it will definitely be sold. Don't carry this little one on your back, I can see it. Just put it on my stall and take care of it." Ma Wenrui said.

"Really okay?"

"Put it in the wash! No problem!" Ma Wenrui said reassuringly.

"That's good." So Huo Wen took out dozens of copper coins from his pocket and gave them to Shi Tong: "You take Ke Ke home for two days, and come to me after two days, and I will take you to the floating market to sell things."

Shitong took the copper coin: "Thank you, Brother Huo."

"Go."

So Shitong took Coco and left.Thinking of the female ghost in the mansion, Zhang Jue said that the female ghost would not harm anyone, so Huo Wencai did not ask Shitong and the two children to find another place to live.It is also difficult to find.

"Wen Cai, why did you suddenly think of helping that kid?" Ma Wenrui was puzzled.

"It looks pitiful."

"There are so many poor people in this world, you can't help even if you want to..."

The cruel world crushes the people who live in this world. For thousands of years, the people who were crushed to death under the wheels turned into piles of bones and laid the ground.People stepped on the corpses of their predecessors and continued to crawl forward.

Huo Wen only understood, so why didn't he understand.Between He Shitong and Ke Ke, maybe it is fate...

Although he doesn't know what fate is...

Huo Wen just wanted to sell things, and Ma Wenrui had a way to get them.Although those goods are not high-end goods, they are exquisite and good-looking, so Huo Wencai first brought a batch to test the water.After preparing all the things, Huo Wencai also thought of asking Shitong to be a salesman during the day, or setting up a stall to sell things in the most prosperous area of ​​Guangzhou City.

Ma Wenrui is in favor of this idea.If Ma Wenrui was on duty during the day, he would go to the water market to sell Jiuniang Yuanzi at night; if he was working at night, he would sell Jiuniang Yuanzi at Chenghuang Temple during the day.These two places are considered one of the most lively places.If Shitong has nothing to do during the day, he can sell some things at the fixed stall in Chenghuang Temple.At night, go to the floating market and sell them, so that you can earn more.And the most important thing is that Chenghuang Temple is relatively safe.

After thinking about it for a while, Huo Wen felt that this plan was feasible.Maybe you can get more money elsewhere, but cocoa needs to be cared for, so be careful.

After the decision was made, two days later in the evening, Shi Tong took Ke Ke to Huo Wencai's house.So Huo Wencai told Shitong about the plan, and Shitong agreed with a big smile on his face.

In this way, both he and Ke Ke are guaranteed.

Huo Wencai hung the small bag of money on Shitong's body, and then let Shitong lead Coco, while he went to the floating market with two wooden boards that could be hung on his chest and a basket of rouge, gouache and jewelry.When he arrived, Ma Wenrui had already arrived, and the girl saw him and said hello.When the girl saw Coco, she liked it very much.Ma Wenrui made two bowls of Jiuniang Yuanzi for the two children, and they dared to eat them only after Huo Wencai pointed them out.After the girl finished helping, she went back to practice.

After the sky gradually darkened, Huo Wen divided the jewelry in the basket into two parts and placed them on two cloth-covered wooden boards that could be hung on his chest.After Huo Wencai hung it around Shitong's neck, he also put it on for himself.Huo Wencai told him the price of the rouge and gouache to be sold.Shi Tong has a good memory, and he remembered it all at once.

Before boarding the boat, after repeatedly confirming that Shi Tong would swim, Huo Wen was relieved to let Shi Tong go.

He didn't board the boat until he saw Shitong's figure disappear.He can't watch Shitong all the time, otherwise Shitong won't be able to be independent for the rest of his life.This is not what Huo Wen wants to see.

Huo Wencai boarded the boat to sell rouge, gouache and jewelry. When he saw men who wanted to board the flower boat for fun, Huo Wencai took the initiative to ask them to buy something to please the women.The success rate of those men's rouge and gouache sold at this time is very high for the spring night.Huo Wencai smiled happily: women's things are easy to make money.

"Boss, what do you have? Show it to the lady inside." The boatman of the flower boat greeted Huo Wencai.

"Okay."

It was only when Huo Wen arrived that he realized that this boatman looked familiar. Wasn't this the boatman who was tricked by Yuan Xi before when he fell into the water and climbed a mountain boat?Apparently the boatman also recognized him: "You are. Let Miss Jinghong see."

Huo Wencai got on the flower boat, the curtain of the flower boat was pulled up to reveal that glamorous face, today she was wearing a blue and white Xiuhe suit.

It turned out that her name was Jinghong.Huo Wen thought in his heart.

When Jinghong saw Huo Wencai, she took a puff of cigarette with her face still cold and let it out: "But there is the rouge from Wanhuazhuang."

"Yes." Huo Wen stepped forward and half knelt in front of the cabin.

Jinghong took the rouge and opened it to see if it was made by the Hong Kong rouge family, so she asked for a box.

"How much."

"35 yuan." Huo Wencai said.

"Here." Jinghong gave Huo Wencai 35 copper coins, and Huo Wencai took them.Jing Hong lowered the boat curtain before Huo Wen got up and continued to sell the goods in his hand.

This woman is really hard to see through...

When it was close to eleven o'clock, Huo Wencai returned to Ma Wenrui's stall. When Shitong saw Huo Wencai, he waved his hands excitedly: "Brother Huo! Brother Huo! I sold it all! I sold it all! Look, I made a lot of money. Money! Look!"

Only when Huo Wen got closer, he knew what was going on when he saw the red marks of lips made by a woman on Shi Tong's face.There are very few children in this floating market, no wonder the women on the flower boat of the World Association "□□".

Huo Wencai took the capital from Shitong's money bag, and gave all the rest to Shitong: "You earned it, take it well." Shitong took the next bag of money and widened his eyes: "Really, really. Is it okay?"

"Yes, Shitong earned it himself."

Shitong hugged Keke excitedly: "Brother is rich! We won't be hungry anymore!" Although Keke didn't quite understand what Shitong was happy about, he was also happy when he saw Shitong happy.

Huo Wencai packed up his things and sent the two back. In front of the mansion, Huo Wencai saw the female ghost in late Qing costume standing in front of the house, as if waiting for Shitong and Keke to go back.The two children waved goodbye to Huo Wencai in front of the door, and Huo Wencai waved and went back.

Is it really all right for that female ghost to wander in the yard?

At night, Huo Wen lay on the bed and took Tang Manzhu's note and earrings from under the pillow.

do you want to go?

Should we go?

As the time drew closer, Huo Wen was hesitant. After going to the banquet, he already knew that the other party's purpose of contacting him was not so pure, although he felt uncomfortable.Fortunately, this time I can see clearly, and I can't let Brother Wei and Junior Brother Chen down.

Forget it, let it be.He has already seen himself clearly, and whether the friendship with Tang Manzhu can be maintained depends on what she will do.Huo Wencai was really depressed.

The next day, Shitong came to find Huo Wencai, and Ma Wenrui and Huo Wencai took Shitong to get the goods.After Shitong left, he wrote it down.

In the future, Shitong will go on his own.

After he had the goods in his hands, he took Ke Ke to the Town God's Temple to get two stools, set up boards and spread cloth, and started to operate.

On the way back with Huo Wencai, Ma Wenrui said, "That kid will have great promise in the future."

"Yeah, this kid doesn't admit defeat and values ​​friendship. He is smart and tenacious. As long as he walks the right path, he can go on well." Huo Wencai said.

"I really convinced you brother." Ma Wenrui patted Huo Wencai on the shoulder.It's really impossible for him to do it.
