Chapter 62 The Dowry
The hunchbacked old man didn't pay attention to Song Jiang and Meng Zhe at all, so he sneered and said, "To tell you the truth, I was a fisherman when I was young, don't look at me now that I am hunchbacked...but you two little kids Still no problem."

Meng Zhe felt a little funny when he heard this, so he pulled a chair beside him and sat down and said, "Little baby? When I was a little baby, your eighteenth generation ancestors didn't even count as a single cell?! I advise you to answer the questions we are going to ask honestly, after that, whether you are really deaf or fake dumb has nothing to do with us, otherwise..."

When Meng Zhe said this, he slowly squinted at the wide open wooden door behind him, and then saw that wooden door was shut tightly by an invisible strange force with a "bang", and he hunched over in shock The old man turned blue.

"You... who the hell are you?!" the hunchbacked old man asked in a trembling voice.

Meng Zhe smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'll scare you to death if I say it. Anyway, it's the person you can't afford to offend in your life. Don't talk nonsense, now answer the first question, how did those drowned people respond?" thing?"

Although the hunchbacked old man was quite frightened by Meng Zhe's move to close the door, he was still thinking about how to escape from the predicament in front of him, until Meng Zhe asked him what happened to those drowned people. Only then did I realize that my good luck these years may be coming to an end...

"I don't understand what you're talking about?" the hunchbacked old man said with evasive eyes.

Seeing that the other party didn't cry when he saw the coffin, Meng Zhe glanced at the grieving ghosts on him and asked, "You didn't hunch your back before, did you?!"

The hunchbacked old man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his head to look at Meng Zhe and said, "How do you know? I...I have been hiding here for more than ten years, and no one remembers my original appearance."

Meng Zhe smiled and said, "Do you want to know why you gradually become hunchbacked?!"

"Bones bend when people get old, hunchback...isn't it normal?" the hunchbacked old man said with a pale face.

But Meng Zhe shook his head and sighed, "To tell you the truth, you are carrying seven resentful ghosts on your body now... Although the ghost itself is not very heavy, but the invisible resentment is there, and the resentment on each of them is under the weight of your body." On your back, over time, your spine will naturally be bent a little bit. Could it be that you never feel that your body is getting heavier and heavier, and you are almost out of breath? !"

It is said that you don’t do bad things during the day, and you are not afraid of ghosts calling your door at night, but the hunchbacked old man in front of you is obviously not the former. After hearing Meng Zhe’s words, he immediately turned around and slapped his shoulders vigorously, with an extremely frightened expression...

Meng Zhe sneered when he saw it, "It's useless, I'm afraid these grieving ghosts will keep pestering you...until you die."

Song Jiang also asked curiously, "How many people did you kill?!"

"I didn't kill them! They killed themselves because they couldn't think about it!" The hunchbacked old man suddenly broke down and shouted.

But Meng Zhe didn't believe the other party's words at all, and snorted softly, "Then why don't they pester others? Why are they pestering you?!"

At this time, the hunchbacked old man regained some composure, and asked tremblingly, "You... who are you guys? You say that if there is a ghost on me, there will be a ghost?!"

After hearing this, Meng Zhe casually described the characteristics of two of the grieving ghosts, "There is a woman squatting on your shoulder. She looks in her early twenties, with dyed red hair and a black mole the size of a grain of rice on her forehead. There is also a middle-aged man with a fat body, a Mediterranean hairstyle, and pockmarked face... How about it, do you want me to continue?"

"Don't... please stop talking!" the hunchbacked old man covered his ears and shouted.

At this time, Meng Zhe's face gradually became gloomy, and he said without anger, "As long as you tell the truth, I may be able to help you get rid of the entanglement of these seven grieving ghosts, so you'd better think it through before you speak."

Finally, under the coercion of Meng Zhe, the hunchbacked old man revealed his true identity and the origin of the seven grieving ghosts on his body...

The hunchbacked old man is called Zhou Dajiang, and his real age is only in his early fifties. He was indeed a fisherman when he was young. Later, because he didn't want to continue to make a living on the water, he relied on his own strength to do odd jobs around.

Later, when he was working part-time, he met a woman named Zhao Lingling. Seeing that she was good-looking, Zhou Dajiang wanted to marry her back home as his wife.Who knows that this Zhao Lingling is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she has not touched it yet, so she uses various excuses to ask Zhou Dajiang for money...

At first Zhou Dajiang could satisfy Zhao Lingling's appetite, but after a long time she couldn't take it anymore. She spent tens of thousands of hard-earned money on Zhou Dajiang, and it was not a problem to give it all the time, so Zhou Dajiang proposed to Zhao Lingling. request for marriage.

What Zhou Dajiang didn't expect was that Zhao Lingling agreed immediately, but at the same time she also put forward a condition, that is, Zhou Dajiang must give her natal family a bride price of 10 yuan.

In fact, in Zhou Dajiang's hometown, it is not too much for the woman to ask the man for a gift of 10 yuan, but Zhou Dajiang's current condition is not to mention 10 yuan, even 1 yuan, he can't get it out... Dazed by love Zhou Dajiang didn't want to give up, so he wanted to take the risk and find a way to get the money as soon as possible.

At first, Zhou Dajiang wanted to rob a bank by imitating the plot of a gangster movie, but he found that there was still a big gap between the reality and the film and television drama, so he temporarily changed his "big plan" to a "small plan" to rob the bank. It became a robbery.

It's a pity that the plan has become smaller, and the distance from the completion of the goal has also become farther. In addition, Zhao Lingling's side is pressing hard, so he put his mind to one side, thinking that he should either quit or make a big one. Count the ball in place once!

After several days of observation and squatting, Zhou Dajiang finally locked his target on Wu Lin, the financial manager of the construction company he had been working for...Because the company pays wages to workers on the 15th of every month, Wu Lin usually The money will be withdrawn from the bank one day in advance, put in the safe in the financial room, and then all workers will be paid the next day.So Zhou Dajiang wanted to grab all the money before Wu Lin finished withdrawing the money and returned to the company, so that all problems could be solved at once.

After Zhou Dajiang planned everything, he took a fish-killing knife that he always carried with him, and secretly squatted near the bank branch that Wu Lin would go to every month.He originally wanted to take advantage of Wu Lin's exit from the bank and go directly to snatch the money, but when he approached Wu Lin's car, he found that there was a woman sitting in the other car...
