Help!There are monsters in this pawnshop

Chapter 217
"I don't know." Zhu Xiaozhou said.

But seeing their reactions now, I can't help but feel suspicious, it seems that they all know about the treasure of the Xing family.

"Oh—" the old man sighed, "Actually, it's just an emerald finger."

"Old Li!"

When the people next to him heard his words, their faces changed drastically, and they hurriedly stopped him.

怎的
Why did you just say it?
"Forget it, how long has it been." The old man called Lao Li ignored the objections of others and questioned, "We are all trapped here, and no one can get out. They were also attracted by those things. Come back, there is nothing more to say."

"Are you trapped here? Why can't you get out?" Teacher Jiang couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he approached him and asked. "Can't you leave here?"

Several villagers looked at each other.

Zhu Xiaozhou paid attention to their every move, trying to find clues from their eyes.
"It's not that I can't live without it, it's just that I'm used to it." The old man said.

"Let's talk about the jadeite finger." Zhu Xiaozhou asked about the emerald finger that the old man just mentioned. He didn't want to be diverted from the topic by Mr. Jiang. He finally talked about the object, and wanted to hear what people in the village had to say first. .

But as soon as the words were out of her mouth, she could immediately feel that the gazes from other people seemed to want to peel off a layer of her skin.

"That emerald finger is an object that Xing Sansuan acquired in his early years." The old man continued, ignoring other people's gazes, and chatted with Zhu Xiaozhou and the others, "Xing Sansuan is a fortune teller for others. One day, I took it alone. That jade wrench came to him"

Zhu Xiaozhou listened very carefully.

The old man told her that when the man came at night, someone from the village found him.Let’s just say that he was sneaky, and he didn’t look like a serious person. He was wrapped in a big leather jacket, but he was skinny.

"His eye sockets are sunken, like a living skeleton." The old man described the man's appearance carefully, "There is a particularly heavy bad luck between the eyebrows and eyes, and a sickness."

"You, have you seen it with your own eyes?"

Zhu Xiaozhou listened to his description, as if he saw it with his own eyes.

"That's not true, I just heard it." The old man said.

Zhu Xiaozhou breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he saw it in person, and said it so seriously.

"You don't even think about it, when did it all happen." The old man complained, he was willing to tell them, but he was still arguing. "Just listen to what I say. If you don't want to listen, I won't say it."

"Don't, don't." Zhu Xiaozhou quickly admitted his mistake, "Go on, let's just listen."

And he gave Teacher Jiang a wink to tell her not to interrupt, in case the old man refuses to talk, he will definitely not tell them looking at the posture of other people.

"Yes, yes, please tell me." Teacher Jiang also hurriedly agreed.

"Speaking of which, that person sneaked into the village." The old man didn't hold any grudges, seeing that they had promised, he continued to talk. "He also knocked on the doors of other houses to find out where Xing San lived. Then he searched one by one. When some people opened the door, they saw his honor. Oh, what a shock! Live like a wild ghost!"

Then, following the directions given by the villagers, the man found Xing Sansuan's door and knocked on the door of Xing Sansuan's house.

Xing Sansuan had already fallen asleep, and was suddenly woken up, so he asked, who is it?

The person at the door said yes, "I need your help."

Xing Sansuan said, come back tomorrow, it's getting late today, so I went to bed.

The man said, "No, I beg your mercy. I will show it tonight. Otherwise, I won't be able to live until dawn. Please do me a favor and help me."

Xing San calculated it, so serious?

So upholding the virtue of good life in heaven, I got up and opened the door.

As soon as the man saw Xing Sansuan, he knelt down and kowtowed to him.Say yes, "Please save me, I don't want to die yet."

"Xing San took a closer look. This person is only in his early twenties, but he looks like he is in his 60s. It's not right!" Do you know why this is?"

"Could it be an illness?" Mr. Jiang said, "I heard that there is a disease called premature aging. It is impossible for a young person to look old. That person is suffering from this disease. Bar?"

"Premature aging?" The old man was dumbfounded, he had never heard of it.

Zhu Xiaozhou thought for a while, and it should not be as simple as premature aging. Since the old man told them in a mysterious way, the truth behind this incident should be unusual. "It has something to do with the finger pull?"

"Hey! That's right!" The old man clapped his hands and praised, and it was Zhu Xiaozhou who made the move. "It's the finger-wrenching fault."

It is said that after Xing Sansuan invited the person into the house, he wanted to ask the specific situation of the person and how he got into such a ghostly state.But before he could ask the question, the man untied the leather jacket on his body.
"I saw, the person who was so thin that he became ribs, hey, the intestines have been pierced and his stomach is rotten, the belly is rotten and bloody, and there are worms burrowing out of the body, accompanied by blood, flesh and pus Not to mention how disgusting it is."

The old man only gave a rough description, and Teacher Jiang almost vomited.

A big living person, so thin that he is not enough, yet he still...
Ended up in such a cruel end?

"Xing Sansuan asked him, how did this happen? He said, they were originally bandits on the mountain, and they lived by robbing houses and houses, but later found that every household in the neighborhood was poorer than the other, and they couldn't find it." What kind of oil and water came out. Then someone suggested that there was an ancient tomb in the back mountain, and it was said that there was a prince buried there, and the treasures buried with him must be indispensable. Once they made up their minds, they might as well steal the back mountain while there was no one there at night. Maybe you can find something valuable in that prince's tomb, at least enough to last half a year."

said the old man.

Then, they took the guy and went to rob the tomb at night.

Sure enough, they really found it!
They dug a hole into the tomb and found a coffin.There were so many funerary objects of gold and silver vessels nearby, and I didn't care about the corpses in the coffin, so I desperately packed all the things I could take.

But he was about to leave.
Zhu Xiaozhou and the others listened very carefully, almost holding their breath, waiting to hear what the old man said about those people.

The old man gasped, "Oh!"

"You said it." Teacher Jiang couldn't hold back.

The old man smiled, and continued, "They were about to leave, but suddenly they found that the body was gone. A group of people panicked, could it be that they encountered a ghost? They discussed not to mess up, and went out one by one, counting The number of people can be counted, one is missing, and one is missing. Finally, he suddenly realized that he was the only one left!"

Teacher Jiang was terrified. Hearing this story made her scalp tingle, and she no longer wanted to listen to it anymore.

I just feel that it is too scary and I want to leave here as soon as possible.
