Chapter 348 Four Gates (17)

"Fox?" I asked subconsciously, and there was an uproar in my heart.

A fox, actually a fox.

This gambler Su has some kind of relationship with the fox?Or something else.

That gambler Su listened to my words, took a deep look at me, and said softly, "Yes, it's a fox."

"Did you see the fox?" I asked quickly.

He gave up and sighed: "To be honest, I intended to marry Niuer with 5 yuan, but just last night, I had a dream."

"Dream?" I was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Is it related to foxes?"

He hummed, looked up to the other side, and said in a low voice, "It's indeed related to foxes. I dreamed...dreamed... dreamed that I was lying in a coffin, and there was a white-haired fox standing on top of the coffin. Keep scratching the coffin board."

After saying this, his face became extremely serious, and he continued: "Xiao Chuanzi, you may think this dream is normal, and you will know when you look at this again."

While talking, he glanced outside again and saw no one, so he pulled up the clothes on his upper body. I saw that there was nothing on the chest, which was normal. The gambler Su said, "Look."

I was not polite, got up slowly, and walked behind him. Dingqing saw that I was almost scared to death.

However, I saw a large area of ​​marks on his entire back, with criss-crossing lines, and the side of the marks was blood-stained, which was particularly shocking. As soon as I touched it, the first feeling I felt was that the chill was piercing to the bones, and I frowned: "Does it hurt?"

He shook his head, and said in a deep voice, "This is the fault, these scratches are neither painful nor itchy."

When I heard this, I frowned, raised my hand to touch the mark again, and said in a deep voice, "Is it made by something?"

He seemed to think of something, and his voice became a little excited, "Absolutely not, you know the girl well, you should know what kind of person I am, I usually don't do any other farm work except gambling, so it is impossible to have such scars on my body, What's more, yesterday, when I took a shower, I didn't have these marks, but after I had that dream at night, these marks appeared on my body inexplicably."

As he spoke, he sighed deeply, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, handed me a cigarette, and lit another one himself.

Lighting the cigarette, he took a deep breath, and slowly said: "This morning, I was wondering if I was going to die, so... I started to plan a certain way out for my daughter-in-law and the girl. .”

Listening to what he said, I immediately understood that if I guessed correctly, this gambler Su thought he was going to die, so his personality changed drastically. Otherwise, with his personality, he would definitely not be willing to take out 1 yuan.

Thinking of this, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

At the moment, I didn't think too much about it, so I lit the cigarette that gambling ghost Su handed over, took a puff, and asked him, "Then what are you going to do now?"

He looked up at me, flicked the ash on the cigarette butt again, and sighed: "What else can I do? I am dying. I just hope that Niuer and the others can have someone to take care of them in the future." .”

As he spoke, he slowly got up and knelt down towards me.

This frightened me, so I quickly pulled him up, "What are you doing, I don't need you to say, I will do my best to help Junior Sister, it's your business, I don't feel like it indicates that you are going to die."

"That's it?" He asked quickly, his eyes fixed on me.

To be honest, I want to tell him that these things are evil, but they will definitely not harm his life, because I checked the scars on his back, and those scars are very shallow, just scratching the skin.

However, when I thought about his change towards Su Xiaoman, I planned to tell a lie, which was to seek some benefits for Su Xiaoman and the others, so I said, "Maybe the fox is punishing you."

"Punishment?" He didn't seem to understand what I meant, and stared at me suspiciously.

I nodded slightly, "Think about it, do you usually like leisure and work hard? It must be because the fox fairy can't stand it, so he deliberately left these marks on his back. The purpose is to let you be a good man and a qualified husband in the future. Be a qualified father, otherwise, next time, the fox fairy may kill you."

When I said the last few words, my tone was particularly gloomy. There was nothing I could do about it. Since I planned to lie to him, I naturally had to pretend to be decent.

But then again, why did this gambling ghost Su have such a dream?
That's not right, according to the information I know, that fox killed five people in this village of beef brisket, why would Su, the gambling ghost, have such a dream?
This made me unable to figure it out, nor did I think deeply about it.

As soon as the gambler Su heard my words, his face was ecstatic, and he trembled: "You...Are you sure it's just punishment?"

I hummed and said, "Yes!"

He added: "Does that mean that as long as I behave well in the future, my life will be safe?"

I smiled inwardly. Looking at the situation, Gambler Su believed my words completely, so he said, "Yes, as long as you behave yourself, I guarantee you will be fine."

In order to pretend to be a little bit, I let the gambler Su kneel on the side of his altar, burned some yellow paper, and I read some harmless engineer words to him, and finally, I I found a small wooden board with the length of one finger and the width of two fingers, and engraved a symbol of '*' on it.

After finishing these things, I handed the small wooden board to Gambler Su, and said in a deep voice, "You must keep it with you, and you can't leave it for a while."

The gambler Su took the small wooden board with an excited expression, thanked me so much that he almost knelt down to me, and kept saying that from now on, he must be a good man.

In this regard, I am quite gratified, and it can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.

Afterwards, I chatted with Gambler Su for a while, and it was all about trivial matters. I don't know whether Gambler Su was intentional or not. Whenever I mentioned the word "fox", he always subconsciously avoided the question.

This made me very depressed, but I didn't think much about it. However, since the gambling ghost Su has promised to be a good man, this trip to Niu Brim Village is not in vain.

It was about 10 o'clock in the evening. Su, the gambler, called his children and his wife, brought some fruits and put them on the Eight Immortals table. We all sat around the Eight Immortals table and chatted for about half an hour. .

Half an hour later, according to my opinion, now that Su Xiaoman's matter is settled, I have to go to Captain Peng.

The strange thing is that when Gambler Su heard that I was going to find Captain Peng, he grabbed me tightly and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Chuanzi, you are my girl's senior brother, and I will not harm you, let me tell you the truth." , Captain Peng, I know him."

"Huh? You know him?" I was taken aback, this is impossible!As a gambler Su, how could he know Captain Peng.

He hummed, and said in a deep voice: "When I met him, how old was he? If we really want to talk about this, we have to go back to 20 years ago. At that time, a strange thing happened in our village. Captain Peng came with his father our village."
