life and death deed

Chapter 11 Strange Contract
In front of me stood a man and a woman.

This is a couple.

As for why I know they are husband and wife, it’s because they are my parents!
The faces of my parents clearly appeared in front of me. This was the first time in so many years.

However, they looked at me in pain!
I saw that their faces were corroded bit by bit, until finally, their parents’ faces turned into skeletons!No skin, no flesh, no blood!

A huge oil pan appeared, and my parents' bodies were gradually submerged in hot oil.

The crackling sound echoed, mixed with screams of pain.

It's my parents'!
"Xiao Nian! Why did you violate our will!"

"Xiaonian, my son, you shouldn't have saved her!"

"Do you know what it means to use my Chen family's unique skills on a woman for the first time?"

"We gave our lives in exchange for ten years of peace for you. Is this how you repay us?"

I can't breathe.

Voices of blame, complaint, and anger appear.

My hands and feet are cold.

I don’t know how long it took, but the stickiness on my back made me uncomfortable, and I woke up.

I was panting heavily, like a wild dog eating after being hungry for several days.

It turned out that this was a dream.

I pushed myself up and got off the bed. My whole body was soaked with sweat, and the bed was even more messy.

I opened the closed window with lingering fear. When the morning sun outside shone into the house, the bright environment calmed my heart.

"Is this just a dream?" I muttered to myself.

I really want to tell myself that this is just something I think about every day and dream about at night, but there is a voice in my subconscious that keeps appearing - this is a warning from my parents!

I'm scared, I'm really scared.

There are not many things in this world that scare me, but if it is about my parents, I will instinctively be afraid!

Military training is still needed during the day. No matter how big the fluctuations in my heart are, I can only force myself to adjust my mentality and devote myself to the military training in school.

Throughout the whole day of military training, I was restless and couldn't concentrate on any movements I did. As a result, I was taken out by the instructor to run laps alone several times.

As time went by, the impact of that night's nightmare on me gradually diminished.

After that, I didn’t see Wang Mingming for nearly a week. That was fine. If I didn’t see Wang Mingming, I wouldn’t think of violating my parents’ will, and the nightmare of that night would slowly be buried deep in my memory.

The fourteen-day military training ended successfully after the military training performance this morning. Starting from tomorrow, I will officially start my college life.

But before I officially start my college life, there is one more thing to do tonight. I am going to start working part-time to make money.

As early as two days ago, my pocket was empty, but Wang Mingming's meal card was still with me that day. Due to my livelihood constraints, I could only use hers first.

As for the food money, she will pay it back to her after her wages are paid.

Of course, when I saw that there was still 2 yuan left on the meal card, I knew that even the dozens of yuan I had eaten would not be appreciated by her.

"Brother Chen, I will officially take up my post soon. Are you excited?"

On the No. 48 bus, Wei Kuan sat next to me and asked me excitedly.

"good."

I casually replied, "It's just patrolling for security. What's so exciting about it? A few years ago, it was exciting when I went to the fields with my uncle. I even encountered rice dumplings once."

However, I will not say these words to Wei Kuan, lest I scare him again.

After half an hour's drive, we came to Babaoji Cemetery again.

In front of the cemetery, there was an old man standing with a black dog, seemingly waiting for me and Wei Kuan.

This time, I deliberately used a method to get rid of the Yin evil spirit that I had contracted during my last Yang marriage.

When the old man saw Wei Kuan and I, he nodded and took out two contracts without further ado. "Old man, do you still need to sign a contract?" Wei Kuan was a little surprised.

"You ask your parents if they need to sign a contract when they go to work?" the old man said angrily.

"Isn't this a part-time job..." Wei Kuan scratched his nose.

"The same applies to part-time jobs! If you don't sign, don't come!" the old man said arrogantly.

"Sign, sign, don't be so angry, old man." Seeing this, Wei Kuan flattered and took the contract from the old man.

I took one of them and read it.

There is nothing special about the rest of the contract, but there are two places that seem more and more strange to me.

Anyone who can get into a key university is not a fool. Wei Kuan also saw the strange things in the two parts of the contract. He pointed and asked the old man: "Old man, what does this mean? You must work for four months?"

"What do you think? What if you work for a few days and then run away, and no one will see our cemetery? It won't take time to recruit others?" the old man said impatiently.

"Then what does this mean? If something happens to Party B in the cemetery, Party A will not be responsible?" Wei Kuan said in shock.

If the previous one makes sense, this content is a bit weird. Not to mention Wei Kuan, I was also shocked when I first saw this content.

Are there risks involved in patrolling a cemetery?
The old man seemed a little speechless by Wei Kuan's question. He probably didn't expect that we two college students would read the contract so seriously.

After a while, he pretended to be tough and said: "Sign or not? If you don't sign, I'll be screwed. Get out of here! You're getting a salary of 7000 yuan a month, and I'm spoiling you by picking and choosing."

"No, old man, you have to give us a reason."

Wei Kuan's temper is actually very easy-going, otherwise a taciturn person like me wouldn't have made him as my first friend, but now he is a little annoyed by this contract.

The old man seemed to feel that this was wrong. He thought for a moment and said, "Not long ago, a patrol security guard fell down the mountain and only broke his leg. However, he wanted our cemetery to compensate 500 million, so this was included in the contract. "

"That's it..." Wei Kuan said doubtfully.

I didn't say anything, but I laughed in my heart. Where is this old man lying?

"I've told you the reason. It's up to you whether to sign or not! Hurry up, I have to get off work." The old man looked impatient again.

Wei Kuan looked at me, as if asking for my opinion.

I didn't hesitate, opened the pen on the contract, signed it directly, and said: "Of course, it's hard to find a job these days, especially part-time jobs. It's just an exemption clause, it's no big deal."

"This kid is still cheerful. You are a fat man. You are fat and strong, but your personality is like a girl." The old man smiled at me and scolded Wei Kuan again.

This is the first time I have seen an old man smile, but this smile is hard to describe in words, just like the voice of Wu Sangu, a wanderer, it can make people have goosebumps all over their body.

"Did you really sign it?" Wei Kuan asked me in a low voice.

"I'm short of money. I have to do this part-time job. How about you stop signing it?"

I replied, in fact, I had a little guess as to why there was this content in the contract. I am afraid that this cemetery is not as clean as it seems to me. Just as my uncle warned me, it is best not to come to this cemetery in my life.

But life forces me to do it no matter how dangerous it is. I still have the skills of the Chen family, so saving my life shouldn't be a problem.

But Wei Kuan is not the same. He is not a member of the metaphysics circle. If he comes into contact with unclean things, he is likely to get into trouble. It is best for him not to do this part-time job.

"What do you mean by aging? Are you looking down on you, Brother Wei? Of course I will sign it if you sign it!"

Wei Kuan misunderstood my meaning and signed his name angrily.

I didn't know how to speak, so I could only watch Wei Kuan sign his name.

"Very good, you two are employees of my Babaoji Cemetery. My name is Xu Da, and I am the security captain of the cemetery. You should be aware of the working hours. I will repeat it here. From 12pm to 30:[-]pm, everything is open. All year round.”

"The job content is very simple. I patrol the cemetery every hour. The security room has a flashlight and an emergency phone. If you encounter a thief, call the police immediately."

The old man took the contract out of our hands.

"Okay, Captain Xu," Wei Kuan said.

"Also, we don't have those strict rules for employees to pay attention to here, but there are a few things you must remember! Things you have to think about every day when you go to work!"

Suddenly, Xu Da said to us in a very serious tone.
