Chapter 179 White Ghost Poker
Wu Xianben thought so.
When I return home, I will be greeted by a delicious meal prepared by Heigu.
But he didn't expect that the first thing he saw would be Heigu's contemptuous look.
It covered its nose with one paw and used the other paw to push Wu Xian into the bathroom, bringing him a bath towel and new clothes.
The conditions in the previous blessed land were too simple.
Wu Xian's body was stained with blood many times, and he even rested directly on the ground. His image was even worse than that of a homeless person, so much so that as soon as he returned home, Heigu smelled a strange odor on his body.
His mere existence pollutes this clean home.
There was a sound of dripping water coming from the bathroom.
Wu Xian stood barefoot on the tiles. He shaved, brushed his teeth, looked in the mirror, and felt the warm water on his body. He couldn't help but feel like he had returned to the civilized world.
After coming out of the bathroom.
There were already four steaming plates and one pot of food on the table.
The reason why there are not four dishes and one soup is that each large plate is divided into compartments, containing four dishes, eight meat dishes, four vegetable dishes and four cold dishes, and there are also two soups in the basin.
Wu Xian's mouth suddenly began to water, his eyes fixed on the dining table.
Although Wu Xian only disappeared for half a day in the real world, he actually had not eaten proper food for a long time. He had eaten too many toads and rats. Looking at the dishes on the table, they were simply delicacies from mountains and seas, and they couldn't be better.
After guzzling a glass of cold beer, he began to eat his meal with a vengeance, and even felt a little moved.
After fighting in the blessed land, someone at home would cook a big meal for him. Although Wu Xian had only experienced this once, he felt that he had become somewhat dependent on it.
It is hard to imagine how lost he will feel if he is alone at home after coming out of the blessed land next time.
He patted Heigu's dog head.
"Heigu, you are so kind."
Heigu wagged her tail happily.
"I have something I want to discuss with you. The high-end kitchenware I promised you may have to be delayed for a while. I'm really short of money recently. Besides, can you let me draw some more...ah!"
Wu Xian was bitten by a dog.
……
Heigu was very sensible and did not hurt Wu Xian, but her bite made him hurt.
But Wu Xian still decided to find time to take it for rabies vaccination later.
We had a noisy dinner.
Wu Xian had a good sleep after a long time. Only those who have slept in a mass grave can appreciate how comfortable the soft big bed at home is.
Two days later.
Wu Xian had rested enough, as he still had a lot of important things to do.
The first and most important thing is to choose poker cards.
When he was in Lihentian, he decided to use playing cards as his permanent accessories, but it was a bit hasty to use a deck of cards that cost only two dollars for such an important thing.
Therefore, Wu Xian went to several places in Fuyuan City, and finally saw a deck of cards in the largest second-hand trading market in the local area.
This is the 'White Ghost' flower-cut playing cards that have long been discontinued. There are dried blood stains on the box. Every aspect of the cards meets Wu Xian's needs, but the price of five hundred yuan is a bit expensive.
"Don't think it's too expensive. This deck of cards was brought back from the crime scene. The deceased was holding this deck of cards at the end. Some say that the deceased's resentment is still attached to it."
Looking at the stall owner's smiling face, Wu Xian looked down on him.
"I'm here to buy things, not to listen to your stories. This bloodstain is considered damaged..."
Wu Xian picked up the cards and bargained skillfully with the stall owner.
As soon as his hand overlapped with the bloody handprint on the card box, he shuddered and got goose bumps all over his body. He just heard a shrill scream!
"This deck of cards..."
Wu Xian immediately realized that this piece of paper gave off a feeling similar to that of a blessed land. Although it had not yet reached the level of being evil, there was indeed something like resentment on it, and the bloodstains on the paper box were indeed human blood!
"I'll buy it, just five hundred!" Wu Xian paid the money happily and felt better. It would be difficult for him to find a more suitable permanent accessory than this deck of cards.
But what made Wu Xian feel a little strange was.
His luck has always been bad. How could he come across something like this so easily?
So he looked carefully at the second-hand market.
This market only provides a place for individual vendors to set up stalls. They sell everything, including bottles and cans, second-hand tables and chairs, electrical appliances, air conditioners...
"Wait... second-hand air conditioner!"
Wu Xianmeng looked at the seller of the air conditioner, who was a shy female college student. She was bargaining with an elderly woman who came to buy an air conditioner.
"Du'e!"
Wu Xian suddenly realized.
This second-hand market is probably used by the family members to sell stolen goods. After they take on the tasks of the City God Office, they can often get some second-hand items, so they come here to set up stalls!
It is easy to understand why Wu Xian met Poker, who had just experienced a murder.
I'm afraid the stall owner didn't tell a single lie!
Du E noticed Wu Xian's gaze and immediately lowered her head with a blush. The little snake head popped out of her pocket and looked at Wu Xian curiously.
Wu Xian had no intention of reminiscing about the past with Du E.
He picked up the poker and was about to leave, but he didn't expect Du E to chase him out.
"Let's find a place to talk."
Wu Xian turned away. He didn't want to have too much involvement with other relatives in the real world.
"I know where Aunt He is hiding."
Wu Xian stopped and grinned.
"Okay, we can talk."
……
During the conversation with Du E, Wu Xian learned that Wei Dian and Du E had similar ideas as him and both felt that Aunt He's proposal was very troublesome.
Wei Dian even found out the whereabouts of Aunt He through some channels.
It’s just that Aunt He hasn’t taken any action yet, so they are all waiting.
There are two additional episodes.
Both of these are related to Liang Fang.
Liang Fang felt that there must be a reason why Xu Fenglan wanted to return to reality so much, so she asked Wei Dian to find out that Xu Fenglan had a child under one year old. She found the child and sent him to the door of Xu Fenglan's parents' home.
As for why she was able to ask Wei Dian for help, that is the second episode.
She and Wei Dian were actually together. Not only were they affectionate in the blessed land, but they also officially became boyfriend and girlfriend in real life...
This news made Wu Xian unhappy.
So Wu Xian and Du E left their contact information with each other and agreed to contact each other as soon as they had any news about Aunt He. Then he found a place that would make him happy.
Bank!
Wu Xian checked the balance of this card at the ATM.
Two hundred thousand!
This amount is not a small amount for a small boss's pocket money.
"One hundred thousand dollars... I can finally replace the old car that the old man left behind."
“High-end kitchenware can also be arranged!”
Wu Xian was in a good mood.
He transferred 100,000 yuan from the card to his own account, and then found Boss Yu’s home according to the address he left.
In fact, even if Wu Xian embezzled the money, there would be no trouble.
But although he scoffed at many rules, he had his own bottom line in his heart. He would not do such a thing as taking people's money and not doing the job.
