Chapter 66 Threatening Fatty Wang
"What are you waiting for, Chen Yang? Think about it yourself. If your soul and spirit are not united, your body will probably rot in no time."
Fatty Wang's words instantly hit my weak spot.
He was right. My physical body couldn't hold on for too long now. I have gradually discovered that my physical body seems to be a little stiff, at least not as flexible as before.
I don't have much time left.
I remained silent. Fatty Wang seemed to know that he had hit my soft spot. He stared at me. After a few seconds, he said to me, "Chen Yang, it will be difficult for you to meet your parents by then. Although you are a ghost messenger and can stay in the world of the living, your parents cannot see you. I don't need to explain this."
I nodded to show that I understood.
"When are you going to the underworld?"
"Tomorrow at noon, we'll go together then."
I nodded and said okay.
Now that you have decided, just do it.
Fatty Wang left the slaughterhouse, but I was still worried.
I didn't say anything for a while and fell silent.
I suddenly thought of an important thing. Since these things happened, I have been led by the nose from beginning to end.
I never seem to be in control .
Just as I was thinking about these things, a voice rang in my ears again, "Brother..."
The voice seemed to carry a hint of apology, and I saw Yuan Xiaohua appear and stand in front of me.
"What's wrong?"
I asked.
"Brother, I'm sorry for causing you trouble in this matter."
Yuan Xiaohua's voice continued to sound.
I didn’t say anything directly that it didn’t matter. I sighed and said, “This has happened. Now I just need to think about how to solve this matter.”
"Brother, do you have any ideas?"
Yuan Xiaohua looked at me curiously.
"Not ready yet."
After I finished speaking, Yuan Xiaohua spoke to me again: "Brother, there is something I need to tell you first. If you follow him to the underworld, then I cannot go."
Although Yuan Xiaohua looks young, she seems to be mentally mature, I heard her say this.
After thinking about it, I felt that what she said was right.
If I went to the underworld and the people there found out that I brought Yuan Xiaohua with me, then not only would Yuan Xiaohua be in trouble, but I would be in trouble as well.
Although Yuan Xiaohua said this from her own perspective, it was not wrong.
I hummed and said, "Okay, I will definitely settle you down before I leave."
Yuan Xiaohua's eyes flickered, and after a while, he said to me: "Thank you, brother."
"It's okay, you can go back."
After Yuan Xiaohua's figure disappeared, I also felt tired, so I went back to the bedroom and lay down to rest.
I slept until dawn, with too many mysteries in my mind.
I tossed and turned, even thinking about these things in my dreams.
I don’t know how long I slept, but the next day I heard a knock on the door.
I was awakened from my sleep by the sound of "bang bang bang". I opened my eyes, opened the door, and saw my uncle outside.
My uncle still looked listless. Looking at him, I knew he must not have had a good rest last night. Seeing this, I asked him, "Did you find the Taoist priest?"
My uncle shook his head and said, "No, I don't know where my master has gone these past two days. Maybe he's traveling somewhere."
"So you can't find the Taoist priest?"
"Xiao Yang, don't worry yet. It's okay if you can't find my master for the time being. The cousin's problems will eventually be solved. Maybe my master will be back in two days."
I saw my uncle trying to explain anxiously, and the reason he was like that was entirely because of me.
I said to him, "Uncle, I know, don't be too anxious."
"Xiao Yang, this matter is really bizarre. What kind of crazy person would steal the body of our cousin?"
My cousin's words also confused me. I wish I knew.
I sighed in my heart, but pretended nothing happened on the surface.
"Uncle, are you sleepy? If you are, take a rest first."
I said to him.
"I'm not sleepy, I just didn't find anyone, which makes me a little worried. By the way, Xiaoyang, tell your parents to be careful and don't let anything go wrong."
"good."
My cousin's words reminded me, and I didn't delay but called my parents. I briefly told them what happened, and I spoke in a rather tactful way.
After listening to me, they told me not to worry and that they were fine.
My heart is tense. As long as this matter is not resolved, it will be like a sword hanging over my head, making me unable to let go.
I hung up the phone and felt empty inside.
Seeing this, my uncle comforted me with a few more words.
"Xiaoyang, it will be fine."
I nodded, took out the jade pendant, and said to my uncle, "Uncle, I'll give this to you for one day, please help me take good care of it."
My uncle was stunned for a few seconds and looked at me in surprise.
"I'll get it back tomorrow. I have something to do tonight."
My cousin asked me, what's the matter?
I told my cousin a brief account of what I had said. When he heard it, his eyes almost popped out of his head in surprise. He looked at me in disbelief.
"Xiaoyang, don't joke like this with your uncle."
I said, "Uncle, I'm not kidding you. I went to the underworld for two purposes. One is to find my soul back, and the other is to see if my uncle's soul is there. If my uncle's soul is there, I can solve many problems at that time."
My cousin was silent for a few seconds after what I said, and then asked me, "Is the Wang Tong you mentioned reliable?"
Even though I told my cousin all these things, I didn't tell him that I had become a messenger from the underworld.
My cousin asked me if Wang Tong is reliable?
In fact, I already have the answer in my mind: Wang Tong is not reliable at all.
But at this point, I didn't have any better options. I thought about it and said to him, "It's reliable."
"Xiao Yang, you are still young. There are some things you don't understand, and some people you can't see through. Tonight, your uncle will help you see if this guy is reliable or not."
My cousin said this with some concern.
I nodded. I had no reason to refuse my cousin's proposal.
My cousin has helped me so much, so of course I trust him unconditionally.
After I finished talking to my cousin, I asked him to go and have some rest and we could talk about everything in the evening.
My cousin agreed.
Time passed quickly and it was night in the blink of an eye.
After my cousin and I finished dinner, my cousin tried to contact the Taoist priest again, but the Taoist priest seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
The Taoist priest also said that he would talk to me about the matter in two days, but after two days, there was still no movement.
This made my doubts even worse.
I gave the jade pendant to my uncle, who helped me keep it and said that he would never lose it. After he said that, I didn't say anything more.
It was around ten o'clock in the evening when a fat man walked in from outside.
My cousin and I looked at Fatty Wang at the same time. When Fatty Wang saw my cousin, he was stunned for a few seconds, but soon returned to normal.
He walked up to me with his usual smile on his face and said to me, "Chen Yang, this must be your uncle, right?"
I:"……"
I looked at Fatty Wang in surprise, wondering if this fat guy had checked my family’s household registration booklet?
Otherwise, would he be able to recognize who my cousin is?
The uncle looked at Fatty Wang with a hint of vigilance, and quickly said, "Fatty, are you a ghost from the underworld?"
"Yes, that's me."
Fatty Wang said this with confidence.
"I'm telling you, I agree that you and Xiaoyang can go to the underworld, but if you dare to do anything bad to Xiaoyang, I will set your corpse on fire in the human world."
My cousin has been a butcher for many years. He has a murderous aura and speaks very fiercely.
When Fatty Wang heard this, he was so frightened that his face turned pale, but he soon returned to normal.
Fatty Wang was also a man who had seen the world. After a brief moment of absent-mindedness, he came back to his senses and stared at me. His eyes flickered. After a few seconds, I heard him say, " Uncle Chen Yang, don't worry. I'm a very reliable person and I won't do anything stupid. If I really did something to let Chen Yang down, I have no objection if you burn my body."
Although Fatty Wang said this, my eyes were still flickering when I looked at him, as if he was a little unconfident when he said these words.
But I didn’t care about these points.
Now that my cousin has said this, it means I have a layer of protection.
Before, I was worried that this bastard would cheat me, but now it seems that I don’t have to worry. If he dares to do anything bad to me, my cousin will burn his body to death.
He will eventually return to the world of the living.
Although Fatty Wang was still smiling at this time, his smile was obviously a little stiff, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
I felt more confident, so I said to him without any nonsense, "Wang Tong, when are we going down?"
Wang Tong became a little hesitant at this time and did not answer immediately.
Time passed by, and it was unknown how long it had been before Wang Tong suddenly said, "Or else..."
"Um?"
My cousin immediately took out the butcher knife. Under the light in the yard, the knife was flashing with a cold light.
Fatty Wang immediately became timid when he saw this. After a few seconds, Fatty Wang forced a smile and said, "Okay, okay. I'll get ready and we'll set off."
Fatty Wang didn't delay and trotted out of the slaughterhouse.
