Chapter 22: Patrol Hunters
After staying in the hospital for two days, I ran away immediately. The fees were too high and I, a poor man, couldn't afford it. The stinky old man who promised to take me in as his apprentice ran off to who knows where. He said that Xiaofeng would take care of me first, but the girl ran away right after she sent me to the hospital.
After I walked out of the hospital, I looked back. Fortunately, my injuries were not too serious. The medical expenses were too high. If I stayed for a few more days, I would earn almost as much as I did in a year. Although I was discharged from the hospital, my injuries were not completely healed. I should rest for a few more days. I was not in a hurry to earn money in these few days.
Alas, so many bad things have happened in the past few days. Some people say that I am the reincarnation of a ghost. Damn it, am I the reincarnation of an unlucky ghost?
I passed by the small market downstairs and bought some vegetables and meat, so I could cook lunch when I got home. Because my chest injury hadn't healed yet, I felt a slight pain when I went upstairs. It took me a lot of effort to get to the dormitory building. When I was about to open the door, I realized that my fucking keys were lost. That night when I arrived at the hospital, I called Zhang Datou and asked him to get the car back. My keys might have been lost in the car.
"Damn it, if a person is unlucky, even drinking cold water will cause a toothache!"
I cursed and stretched out my foot to kick the iron door. At this moment, the iron door suddenly opened inward with a click. I jumped back quickly. My first reaction was, "It's a thief!" But when I saw who was standing in the door, I was stunned.
It’s that naughty girl Xiaofeng!
"Oh my god, what the hell are you doing? Why are you coming to my house? Don't you know that scaring people can kill them?"
I cursed in a somewhat unhappy tone. Before I finished speaking, the little girl suddenly flashed and came close to me, raising her head and staring at me with her two big eyes.
"Uncle, be careful with your words. My uncle-master has given you to me to discipline. From now on, you must not only obey my orders, but also follow me."
The little girl said in a sophisticated manner.
Discipline your sister!
I cursed in my heart and said, "Where should I go with you? What about my job?"
The little girl glanced at me, then looked back at my room and sneered, "How much do you make a month from your job?"
I was stunned for a moment. Although I didn't understand what she meant by asking this, I thought about it and replied, "About three or four thousand. It's not much, but it's okay."
"Make do? Uncle, stop being ridiculous. What era is this? After deducting food, drink, and toilet expenses, how much money do you have left?"
The little girl asked with a slightly mocking smile.
I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but I was speechless. After I saved money every month and sent some to my family, there was really not much left. I gritted my teeth and said, "Why do I need so much? Just enough is enough. People should be content with what they have. Those who are content are always happy."
The little girl gave me a very contemptuous look, and suddenly threw something to me. I took it and saw that it was a bank card. I couldn't help but frowned and asked, "What's the matter? What does it mean?"
"Here is a hundred thousand dollars. It belongs to you. Can you come with me now?"
"T-a hundred thousand?"
I was completely stunned, staring at the little girl. This girl was only about 14 or 15 years old. How could she just take out a bank card with 100,000 yuan in it? 100,000 yuan, that's several years' salary for me!
"One hundred thousand."
The little girl replied indifferently.
"Is this true? Are you really giving it to me?"
I still don't quite believe it.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Are you leaving or not? I have to rush to the next mission location."
The little girl said impatiently.
"Let's go, of course."
Damn, this is 100,000 yuan. I have never had so much money before. I quickly responded and rushed into the house to pack my things.
"Why are you packing up those junk? They are worthless. Once you complete the next mission, I'll give you tens of thousands of dollars and you can buy some new ones."
Xiao Feng shouted impatiently at the door.
Give me a few tens of thousands more?
I couldn't help but be stunned. Is this girl a rich woman?
Actually, I didn't have anything important in my room. When I heard that I could get tens of thousands of dollars, I just packed a few clothes and stuffed them into my bag, saying with a big smile on my face, "Okay, okay."
The little girl glared at me and walked downstairs. I quickly locked the door and followed her. I won't give up the house for now. The rent is not expensive anyway. I can just deposit a few hundred yuan into the landlord's bank card every month.
"Girl, where are we going?"
I followed her and asked curiously.
"What else can a hunter do besides hunting ghosts?"
The little girl said without turning her head.
Patrolling hunter? I've heard from the stinky old man before that he's a Taoist priest who catches ghosts, and also a patrolling hunter. I was a little curious, so I asked again, "What does patrolling hunter mean? Is it a hunting profession?"
The little girl turned her head and glared at me, then turned back and said, "Hunters patrol the world and hunt down the demons and monsters that are causing trouble in other people's homes. Those little ghosts that night were the targets of our hunting. It can also be said to be a profession, because many times we are paid to hunt. Just like the little ghost that night, I came here because I received a hunting mission. The reward for the mission is the 100,000 yuan in that card."
"Damn, this is how you make money?"
One mission is worth 100,000 yuan, this reward is really high. But thinking back to the scene that night, I almost lost my life, it seems that 100,000 yuan is not a lot, after all, life is the most valuable.
"Tsk, look how happy you are with just this little money. Some big missions can earn hundreds of thousands or even millions, which is normal."
The little girl's tone seemed to show some contempt for my behavior, but I was in no mood to care about her contempt at this moment. All I could think about was the hundreds of thousands and millions she mentioned . Damn, how much money would that be? If one bill is 100, how many bills would there be? If I had that much money, how would I spend it?
"Hello, hello!"
I was slightly stunned, and when I came to my senses, I found that the little girl was looking up at me. I smiled awkwardly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Can you be more promising, be obedient, and learn from me? I guarantee you will make a lot of money in the future."
The little girl suddenly spoke in an air of being mature, looking just like a gangster boss, looking at her younger brothers, speaking big words, and hanging out with them to enjoy the good life.
Thinking of the hundreds of thousands and millions she just mentioned, I quietly wiped my saliva and said with a smile on my face: "Yes, yes, girl, I will be obedient and learn from you well."
As the saying goes, the rich are the boss, and if you can help me make money, you are the boss.
"What girl? I have a name. My name is Lu Xiaofeng."
"Lu Xiaofeng, four eyebrows?"
"What four eyebrows?"
The little girl asked curiously.
"nothing."
I quickly shook my head in response. Doesn't this girl know the four-eyebrowed Lu Xiaofeng in Gu Long's novel?
"But you can call me Senior Sister."
I couldn't help but be stunned. This girl is not even older than me, and the stinky old man seems to be her great uncle. If I am the stinky old man's apprentice, then I should be the little girl's uncle.
"That's not right. Look, the stinky old man is your great-uncle, and I'm his apprentice. So you..."
"One hundred thousand."
The little girl suddenly turned around, looked at my pocket and said something.
I couldn't help but be startled, then I quickly smiled and said, "You have the final say, so I am your senior sister."
"That's good. Come on, I'll take you to catch ghosts and make a lot of money."
