Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 195 Origin
"That's my exclusive secret recipe!"

Marina didn't want to reveal the process of her treatment, and the third uncle didn't force it, with a very "warm" smile on his face:

"Is that...a gift from the gods?"

Marina didn't expect the third uncle to ask such a question, she pondered for a moment, and replied seriously: "If gods existed, I would have been able to live a life without worrying about food and clothing by relying on devout prayers, and I would not appear in front of you in this way gone."

The third uncle leaned against the bed, feeling the sunshine pouring into the cabin from the window, turned his head to look at the inferior dressing table by the wall, his unhandsome but tough face showed no expression other than a faint smile.

"Life is not easy...why don't you want to be a corner girl?"

He has seen a lot of girls like her.

Marina, who still had a flat stomach, didn't deny it, but replied in a natural tone: "If there is a choice, who would want to do that kind of thing? Fortunately, I have a new job now."

She pointed at the third uncle's back, trying to sell herself:

"Look, the injury is recovering very well, isn't it? This is my unique secret recipe! Only I can do it!"

The third uncle's keen sense of smell has already smelled the faint smell of blood on his back that does not belong to him.

The very faint smell of blood made him a little excited, and he hadn't eaten fresh blood for a long time.

Fortunately, the extremely strong rationality he has cultivated in the past ten years has allowed him to completely hide such deformed excitement.

"It's not bad... I think we are short of healers... What do you want to pay?"

Marina opened her hand: "Five pence a day."

The third uncle almost laughed out loud, and that smile even dispelled some inner excitement: "Too little."

Marina was stunned for a moment, she didn't seem to expect Third Uncle to say that, her face flushed immediately, and she seemed a little annoyed.

"Ten pennies! A day!"

Facing her angry and confused voice, Third Uncle blinked:

"make a deal."

Marina was stunned again, and then realized that her offer was still low.

The third uncle sat up from the bed. When he stood up straight, Marina helped him button the buttons on his collar. The buttons were high-end products, and Marina had never seen them before, so the way he buttoned them A little clumsy, almost impossible to buckle.

Uncle San didn't care about this. In fact, he bought this dress temporarily when he was doing errands in the upper city. Because the original clothes were splashed with blood, he had to buy new clothes for himself.

He picked up the black round cap next to the pillow, gently covered it on top of his head, walked to the door a few steps, and stretched out his hand to push the door open.

The warm spring sun shone on him, causing him to squint his eyes, and subconsciously put his cold hands into his pockets, his cold-blooded body slowly warming up with the outside temperature.

He stepped out of the door, suddenly remembered something, turned to Marina and asked, "Do you have any other requests?"

Marina immediately realized that she could get more from this deal.

She was suddenly a little frustrated, because she hadn't thought about it before.

She knew that if she spoke casually at this time, it would easily arouse the resentment of the fierce Asian hornet in front of her, so she just kept silent.

Third Uncle smiled and lowered the brim of his black round hat.

"Then, welcome to join Tai Shenghe, Alina Marina."

As he walked out, the excitement in his heart made his pupils almost turn into vertical pupils, tears of excitement, excitement and great hope soaked his eyes.

He saw his future in Marina.

That is his further hope on the journey of life.

Although the hope at this time is only a kindling, and it will be shattered at any time, it is still the only straw he can grasp.

Uncle San walked towards the stairs, and passed a rough middle-aged man with a beard and a ragged denim jacket.

Both of them glanced at each other, but tacitly did not strike up a conversation, they just passed each other.

Seeing the man's face, Chen Yan felt mixed emotions in his heart.

That's Jack Baldo.

The third uncle took a few more steps forward, entered the downward stairs, and then stopped, leaning against the rough wall next to the stairs that the sunlight could not reach.

Arguments soon rang out.

"Marlena, who was that man just now? Is it a corner of the Asian gang? I've seen him bring people into the building to arrest people."

"It's none of your business! You bastard, it's because of you that I haven't had any income for a month!"

"Marlena, you can't say that. Rather than being forced to pick up customers by the Powder Keg Gang, it's better to live a slightly poorer life in Leprosy Lane. Besides... you're not suitable for picking up customers now, are you?"

"..."

"I've done the math. My salary is just enough for the two of us to live. When your child is born, we'll send him to a church school. It's completely free for the poor. He can receive education and even work-study programs. feed yourself."

"..."

"Marlena, why don't you speak?"

"Jack, I never understood why you did this."

"Why did you use your blood to light the aromatherapy for me?"

"...Because you are dying."

"You helped me, so we're friends, right?"

"..."

"Friends are all about helping each other out, right?"

"Jack, you're such an idiot."

"I don't think so. Helping a friend who is in trouble is a matter of course!"

After a brief silence.

"Jack, what is this child? Why did he let me have... such blood?"

"It's a gift from the gods."

"Bullshit, instead of believing in gods, it's better to believe in a stray dog ​​on the street. At least the stray dog ​​will remember that you fed it and bark twice for you when you were bullied. What can a god do?"

"You seem to be right."

"Jack, aren't you really trying to make my child work as a child laborer in the factory to make money for you?"

"Are you serious about asking this?"

"Yes."

"No, then."

"I trust you for now, if you dare to lie to me, I will throw away your ugly onion armor."

"what……"

"Go and rest, Jack, the night shift is very tiring, you need enough rest."

"Ah, um...Marlena, this is the most touching thing you have ever said."

"get out."

The third uncle listened to the conversation between the two, and the smile on the corner of his mouth never stopped for a moment. He realized that he had encountered great luck, and he was glad that he had made a wise choice.

The third uncle walked downstairs, and the vision in front of Chen Yan gradually blurred.

Until now, Chen Yan felt obvious mental exhaustion, and "seeing" these memories seemed to consume a lot of mental strength, so that he couldn't continue to "see".

There were still more memory images in front of him, but Chen Yan couldn't concentrate anymore.

When he forced himself to "look", there would be extremely uncomfortable ravings in his head.

With the appearance of this weird raving sound, new pictures skipped before his eyes - those pictures did not come from the third uncle's memory, or even from human beings, but some unimaginable and unheard of grotesque images.
