Chapter 0073 Baozi Shop
"I'm different. I only get up early once in a while." I said with a smile.
The lady boss looked at me and said, "You don't look well. Did you stay up late last night? Young people should take care of their health."
At this point, he slapped his own lips a little embarrassedly, "I'm a straightforward person, don't mind it, little brother!"
I hurriedly said, "No, I won't stay up late anymore. It's really too much for me."
The proprietress brought over a plate of buns and asked me to eat them while they were hot.
I chatted with her for a while and found out that her bun shop was run by a couple. They had been selling buns here for five or six years.
The neighbors here call them Brother Bao and Sister Bao.
"Mrs. Bao, your buns are so delicious!" I am speaking from the heart. I have never eaten such delicious buns.
Mrs. Bao was also very happy when she heard me praising their buns.
I saw it that night at the foot of Xiaohe Mountain. This person has a straightforward temper. She is indeed very cheerful and generous, and I can hear her clear laughter from time to time.
"It's so lively." Perhaps hearing us talking happily in front, a man came out from the kitchen and brought me a bowl of freshly cooked wontons with a smile.
This Brother Bao has a simple and honest face and a calm demeanor. He is the man who knows Bajiquan.
I chatted with the couple for a while, and then I received a strange call. When I picked up the phone, it turned out to be Lin Yang's call, "Brother Tuhao, are you okay? Where are you?"
His voice was hurried and nervous, and I could tell that he cared about me.
I smiled and said I was fine. I knew there must be a lot of people around him right now, so it was not appropriate to say too much, so I just made up an excuse and brushed it off.
The gist of it is that after we were attacked, I was lucky enough to wake up in the middle of the attack, and then I took the opportunity to escape and ask for help.
Later when I rushed back, I saw that he had been rescued and was being questioned, so I did not go there.
Lin Yang expressed his understanding, "Brother Tuhao, you like to keep a low profile, let's wait... Come on, brother Tuhao, I won't talk to you for now, they are asking me questions again!"
After hanging up the phone, I saw the couple looking at me, so I told them what happened in general.
When Brother Bao and Sister Bao heard this, they were greatly surprised. They said that they also knew about what happened at the Regent Hotel three years ago, but they didn't expect that such a thing happened there!
Mrs. Bao looked at me and said, "No wonder you look so bad, Xiao Chen. It turns out you stayed up late to do the live broadcast. You encountered something like this last night. No one can handle it. Go back and have a good sleep. Don't work so hard in the future."
I heard the concern in her tone, and my heart warmed. I smiled and said that I was just making a guest appearance and I didn’t do live broadcasts normally.
When they were ready to pay the bill after eating and drinking, they refused to accept it and said it was just their treat.
I didn't insist any more. As the sky was getting brighter and some guests had arrived, I stood up and said goodbye to them.
Not long after I left the bun shop, I received a call from Zhu Xiaomei. But it was Wang Ruoyu's voice on the other end of the phone, and he asked me anxiously how I was and if anything was wrong.
Only then did I realize that the scene where the dwarf crawled out from under the bed and we were attacked was all broadcast live. Although Lin Yang's phone fell to the ground at that time, the live broadcast was not interrupted and the sound was still broadcast.
Wang Ruoyu and Zhu Xiaomei were almost scared to death. Zhu Xiaomei quickly called the police, and Wang Ruoyu contacted the nearest person to rush over.
They didn't know my situation and didn't dare to call me directly. They became more and more panicked as they listened to the call on the phone. Later, they even stopped the live broadcast.
That moment happened to be the moment when the light bulb in the room exploded, and all had more or less malfunctions, including Lin Yang's and mine.
Wang Ruoyu became impatient waiting, so she simply ran out of Puji Temple with Zhu Xiaomei and drove straight to the north of the city. However, when they arrived, the Regent Hotel had already been blocked.
Because their cell phone was malfunctioning, the two of them called me but the line was always busy. It was not until later that my phone returned to normal for some reason that I received calls from Lin Yang and Zhu Xiaomei.
Wang Ruoyu asked me where I was and told me to wait there as they would be there soon.
I sat down on the side of the road and dozed off for a few seconds. Then I heard the sound of a car engine. A blue Porsche came speeding over and stopped right in front of me.
"You little charlatan, are you really going to kill yourself?" Wang Ruoyu jumped out of the car and started scolding him.
Zhu Xiaomei managed to hold her back and spoke well of me.
I was touched to see my aunt and sister-in-law running out of Puji Temple to look for me regardless of their own safety. I sat on the curb and said with a smile, "Thank you, elder sister and sister Xiaomei, for thinking of you."
Wang Ruoyu said coldly, "Who would care about you? If it weren't for the fact that you helped me, I wouldn't care about you!"
Zhu Xiaomei smiled and tried to smooth things over, saying that it was good that the person was fine.
Wang Ruoyu glared at me angrily, "Do you know how dangerous it was for Xiaomei and I to run out? It's all your fault!"
"I know, I know. So I helped you two get rid of the blood curse. It's not a loss, right?" I said while yawning several times.
"What do you mean by not losing out...wait, what did you say?" Wang Ruoyu was suddenly stunned in the middle of his sentence.
Zhu Xiaomei was also stunned for a moment: "Blood curse?"
I fished out the small glass bottle from my pocket and shook it towards the two of them, "This is the blood curse on the mansion that Little Stone mentioned."
The two women stared at the bottle in surprise.
"What's that bloody stuff in here?" Wang Ruoyu asked with a look of disgust.
But it does look a bit disgusting.
"There seems to be a piece of paper in here... and blood?" Zhu Xiaomei said with a pale face, looking at it carefully.
Wang Ruoyu snorted and said, "You believe this nonsense? It's just a piece of torn paper with some blood on it. What kind of blood curse is this? Can this thing kill people ?"
If you don’t believe me, take a closer look.
Wang Ruoyu got angry and took the bottle from me without saying anything. He put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, "So disgusting..."
Just as she finished her words, the half-broken blood-stained talisman in the bottle suddenly jumped up and down like a live fish, hitting the bottle body continuously.
The two women screamed in fright. Wang Ruoyu threw the bottle out with her hand. Fortunately, I caught it, otherwise it would have been broken.
"What...what the hell is that?" Wang Ruoyu's face turned pale with fright.
"It's something that kills people." I put the bottle back in my pocket, opened the car door and sat in the back seat.
The two women stood there for a while, then got into the car.
"Is that really a blood curse?" Wang Ruoyu stared at me and asked again.
Seeing that they were willing to run out from Puji Temple to find me regardless of their own safety, I did not hide anything and told them in just a few sentences what had happened at the Regent Hotel.
After that, I was so sleepy that I don't know what they talked about. I fell asleep leaning back in the chair.
When I woke up, the car had arrived at the Lanchen Hotel.
