Chapter 104 Money and Life

I thought he was referring to Nangong Feiyan, because the little fox had never appeared since yesterday, but we waited for about ten minutes, and sure enough, a taxi slowly floated over from a distance!

Pay attention to my words, yes, it was floating... I came here, just in the mist in the morning, so fast that I didn't even have time to blink. I just found the trace of the car, and the next moment, I arrived not far ahead.

When I rubbed my eyes again, the car was already parked in front of me. As soon as the car door opened, a man in a black jacket got out of it.

I looked closely and couldn't help but be stunned. This was the one who took me to Fuyuan Street last time!

He was not surprised to see me, but just glanced at me slightly, then looked down at the three people lying on the ground, waved casually and said, "Get in the car."

I was stunned. How did he come here? Could it be that he and Shao Pei had made an appointment early in the morning?

Shao Peiyi smiled at him and gave me a wink, so I had to suppress my confusion and, with him, moved all three people on the ground into the car. No matter what, I still have to leave here first.

However, it is obviously too crowded to ride in this car, especially the three of them are in a state of drowsiness. Among them, Aaron is a relatively strong type, so it is impossible to sit in them all.

Black Jacket looked at the situation, pointed at Aaron and said, "He, the trunk."

Uh, is that okay? I scratched my head, looked at Aaron, and then looked at others, and he took up the most space.

There is no way, Aaron, I'm sorry for you, you'll feel wronged for a while...

I muttered to myself, and tried hard to put Aaron into the trunk with Shao Pei, and the black jacket came over and closed the door. I asked worriedly, "What's going to happen is that, right?"

Black Jacket didn't answer, but asked me: "Have your matter been resolved?"

"What's the solution?" I don't understand what he was talking about.

"Fuyuan Street, you won't forget it, do you?" He looked at me strangely, as if I was pretending to be confused.

Fuyuan Street... I felt a little moved and said quietly: "The place is at most No. 78, and it seems that there is no No. 79."

I wanted to wait for his answer, but he looked at me again, but there was a strange smile on the corner of his mouth. Without saying anything, he turned around and started the car.

I wondered, what was going on, why did everyone be mysterious to me? Is this strange Pingshan City still the world? Why do I think that many of the people I encountered during this period are non-human?

Shao Pei patted me and whispered, "Idiot, go further from No. 78, it's No. 79. Get on the bus soon. Time is precious, so he won't wait for anyone."

I was dragged into the car by him, and closed the car door in a daze. Then I felt a misty smoke in front of me. The car seemed to have set off...

I have to say that the next scene was very strange because I saw the black jacket driver who didn't drive at all. To be precise, he didn't even put his hand on the steering wheel.

He was completely different from the last time he took me to Fuyuan Street. He drove like a decent car last time. This time he didn't look like a driver at all. He was more leisurely than me, a passenger. He put his hands behind his head, as if he was thinking about something, and suddenly, he closed his eyes...

I was very upset and didn't know where he was going to take us. However, after a struggle of thought, seeing that Shao Peiyi was still calm and composed, I cursed myself: What a big deal? At most, I was a ghost car. You are a taboo master. You are a descendant of the Han family. You have fought with evil ghosts with real swords and guns. What are you afraid of?

Thinking of this, my heart gradually calmed down. Since I came, I would be at peace. I have gone to the ancient tombs and desolate graves and played chess with an old weasel. Now I'm just a car. I'm afraid you're a furious person?

So I just leaned comfortably in the back seat, watching the black jacket, thinking that I want to see what you can do...

As a result, nothing happened. The car stopped quickly and the scenery outside the car window became clear. I looked outside and found that it was actually the apartment where Nangong Feiyan lived.

Nangong Feiyan was already waiting for us. As soon as the car door opened, I got out of the car and said to her in wonder: "It's the car you called for us?"

Nangong Feiyan smiled and said, "No, if you don't shout in the car, will you still run away by yourself? Send them up quickly, I have rented a room."

So I hurriedly carried all three of them out with Shao Peiyi. When I saw that these three were still sleeping soundly, I didn’t know why they were so sleepy.

The mysterious driver's mission was completed. Nangong Feiyan took out something with him and handed it to him. The driver smiled slightly and never looked at us again. The car started to move forward and soon disappeared into the morning mist.

I asked Nangong Feiyan: "What did you hand him to him just now?"

"Of course it's money. Don't you give me money by calling a taxi?" She looked at me in surprise and said.

"Money?" I couldn't help but be surprised, "Last time he took me to Fuyuan Street, why didn't he ask me for money?"

Nangong Feiyan burst into laughter, took out a handful of colorful money from her body and said to me: "Look, what he wants is this kind of money, do you have?"

When I looked down, I was shocked. This was actually a handful of ghost coins! The smallest amount on it seemed to start with one million.

"He...who is he? Is he not a human?" I asked in surprise.

"How do you say this..." Nangong Feiyan thought for a while before saying: "He should be a human, but not a completely human. This is a bit troublesome, and I can't figure it out very well. In short, you just need to remember that he is the ferryman in this city."

"Ferryman..." I murmured and repeated, looking at the morning mist in the distance, thinking.

"Yes, he is the city ferryman." Shao Peiyi smiled and said, "His profession is to send some people to places they want to go but cannot go. According to legend, if ordinary people meet them, they can realize their unfulfilled wishes. Of course, a long time ago, they should have used carriages, but now the times have improved, so they have changed to taxis..."

I wondered, "But I saw him on the roadside a few days ago and was with some waiting customers for rent. It seemed that it was no different."

Shao Peiyi and Nangong Feiyan looked at each other, patted me, and smiled and said, "Brother Xiaotian, believe me, except for you, those people will definitely not see him."

I was stunned again.

When Shao Peiyi, Nangong Feiyan and I brought He Tiantian and the three sleepy people upstairs together, the morning mist had slowly dissipated, the cold streets gradually became lively, and people began a new life.

This was obviously a house I just rented, empty, with nothing but a bed, a table, and a few chairs.

Looking at He Tiantian lying quietly on the bed, I wiped the sweat from my forehead and said to Nangong Feiyan: "I think you should know what happened last night, what should I do next?"

Nangong Feiyan spread her hands and said indifferently: "It's easy to do. Let them take a break. After they recover, they will hire a car for them and then go back to their hometown."

I widened my eyes: "That's so simple?"

Her eyes widened even bigger than me: "Yes, it's that simple, otherwise what else do you want?"

"I won't save people?" I pointed at He Tiantian and said, "Did we have been in vain after we have been tossing all night?"

"What else do you want? Now I know that He Tiantian's life is over and no one can help her. The only thing we can do is help her go home as soon as possible and stay with her family for a few more days. If you want to save her, it seems impossible."

I was stunned, looked down at He Tiantian's pale face, and remembered what she said, the man who bought her ten years of life, couldn't help but feel indignant, and clenched his fists hard and said, "But, have we just let that hateful guy succeed? If this continues, how many people will be killed? Ten years after ten years, will he live as an immortal monster?!"

Nangong Feiyan stared at me as if she didn't know me, then said, "Please, my cute and kind little brother, have you forgotten that this is a deal, was she willing to do it?"

Yes, this is a deal, you are willing to do it, and no one forces her to do it. She spent ten years of her life, and the man promised to pay five million, which was fair and reasonable, and no one seemed to be able to find fault.

I was in a daze, and Shao Peiyi interrupted: "Actually, I think there is nothing wrong with this transaction. If there is no such money, her mother would die of serious illness, and her family would also have to be heavily in debt and even work hard for life. Now she has spent ten years of life in exchange for her mother's recovery and the happiness of her family. I think she is willing to do with her. Even if you find that person now and force him to return his life to He Tiantian, then her mother will not be able to survive. What should I do with this problem?"

I was speechless. What Shao Peiyi said was very reasonable. In the face of survival and life, reality is often so cruel, and the choices in life are often so ruthless. If only one person can live between two people, who would He Tiantian choose?

I clenched my fist again and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, I must find that person. Even though his money has helped many people, it is a taboo to use life as an exchange. In this world, it is because there are too many such people that people's minds are increasingly distorted and dark. Using money to buy life is an unequal transaction, and he should pay the price for it!"
