Chapter 2017 Li Mazi's Responsibilities
The light was very strange and became more brilliant in the flames.
I couldn't help but be curious, and leaned over and took a look. It turned out that there was a stone the size of a nail embedded in this guy's body. After the muscles were burning, the stone was exposed and fell to the ground.
The stone was white, but it showed a strange blue light in the flames.
I didn't dare to stay for too long, so I picked up the small stone and left quickly.
After putting some black blood on the wound, the poison was greatly relieved. Although there was still a hidden pain, it was no longer a problem.
I ran quickly along the bottom of the ditch for a hundred meters. The lights flashed in front of me, as if a car was slowly driving over.
I stopped and looked carefully. It was the one that Li Mazi drove away. Is this guy worried that something would happen to me and come back to pick me up?
I looked around and there was no other vehicle passing by, so I quickly ran to the front.
But there was no one in the car!
He pressed the clutch and throttle with a branch, and slowly moved forward in the low gear.
I was wondering, and there was a rustling sound of trampling on the other side of the trench, and I approached straight to the car.
Um?
Could it be that Li Mazi was killed? This is a trap specially prepared for me?
I squeezed the invisible needle tightly, followed closely behind the car and was careful to watch out.
Suddenly, a black shadow passed by, and swung a white light and slashed straight towards him!
I was about to scatter my hand and release the invisible needle, but suddenly I found that the figure was very familiar, it was Li Mazi!
He hurriedly turned sideways, avoided him, and grabbed his wrist.
"Mazi, it's me!"
It was not until then that Li Mazi recognized me and exhaled, "Brother, are you okay?"
"Let's talk about getting in the car." I opened the car door and jumped up.
Li Mazi put away Lingyun sword and sat in the driver's seat.
"Brother Zhang family, this wound seems to be poisonous! Let's go to the hospital?" Li Mazi started the car and found that my wound seemed a little abnormal by using the lights in the car. He said anxiously.
"No need." I shook my head and said, "Look for a small hotel first. I can solve the poison myself. I have to find out what the killer is from before talking about it!"
"So should I call the police first?" Li Mazi asked.
"What kind of police call? Once it is related to murder and arms, it will be difficult to explain clearly for a while. Besides, with this guy's methods, he is definitely not an ordinary killer. Once the police intervene, it may be more troublesome, and perhaps more innocent people will be implicated. Let's investigate secretly first, and it will not be too late to report to the police after finding conclusive evidence." I replied.
Half an hour later, I arrived at the county town. Without my instructions, Li Mazi parked his car in a secluded place without a camera, and then crossed two streets and found an inconspicuous small hotel.
"Mazi, you have made great progress. Who did you learn from this skill of seducing enemies with empty car?" After entering the room, I asked while taking off Li Mazi's coat that was covering the outside.
I thought Li Mazi would brag about it with pride, but who would have thought that Li Mazi would sigh with a dim expression: "Brother, I have thought about it. To put it nicely, we are exorcising ghosts and evil, doing good deeds and accumulating virtues. But in the eyes of outsiders, what are we doing? We deal with dead people all day long, or just like bad charlatans! Nothing different from those scum who cheat! Unless they really encounter something and have to find us, who would be willing to deal with us?"
His words were so stupid that I was confused.
"Then what you mean is...we are no different from those shameless people who are despicable? So the methods used are also the same?"
Li Mazi didn't answer my words and continued, "Brother, let me tell you the truth. I never wanted to learn this thing before, because of this reason. I don't want to make people say that Xiao Meng has a charlatan dad. Do you know that he told his classmates at school what I do? He said I am a wholesale craft."
"Stop talking about Yin things, he didn't even dare to mention the word antique. He felt that Yin things merchants were embarrassing and would be looked down upon! I have thought about it and never let him get in touch with this industry! Just imagine, when Xiao Meng and Fanfan grow up, they will also embark on the old path of ours and always wander on the edge of life and death. What are we feeling?"
"Brother, I don't know what the reason is for your old man. You must take over this small shop and work as a businessman. But I advise you not to let Fanfan learn this, doctors, lawyers, or business teaching, just don't follow our old path."
After hearing what he said, I was a little silent.
Since I met Li Mazi, this is the first time he has talked to me about such a heavy topic.
Li Mazi is right.
The business of Yinwu merchants is not understood by the world. Most of the time, they are confused with witches and charlatans and cannot be on the stage at all.
Moreover, there is a life-and-death crisis every moment.
Not to mention me, just how many times have Li Mazi encountered? Which ordinary industry will experience so many life and death tests?
If one day Fanfan walked on this path like me...
"So, I've thought about it too." Li Mazi said in silence for a while: "Although this industry is not understood, I know very well that we have done a lot of good things. And even if I want to quit now, it's unlikely that I will keep going. Instead of keeping up, it's better to learn some skills. When you were in Hangzhou last time, you also said that there might be many dangers in the future. It's okay for us alone, but there are Fanfan, Xiaomeng, Xinyue and Xia Qin. You can't bring danger to them anymore, right?"
"I have been with you for so long and have not made any progress at all. I used to think it was nothing, as long as I could make money. But now I finally understand that I have a responsibility! I can't always rely on you! Even if I can't help, I must not become a burden to you and drag you down! Brother Zhang, don't worry, from now on, I, Li Mazi, will definitely learn skills steadily! At least I can protect our family and not distract you! As long as I can do this, I will learn and use any tricks. It doesn't matter whether I am despicable or not, despicable or not."
Li Mazi's eyes were extremely firm, revealing a look she had never seen before.
I patted him hard on the shoulder and said nothing.
