Chapter 5 Getting Kicked by a Client
There were some broken iron shovels, brooms and other construction tools in the first floor lobby of the villa, and a wheelbarrow that fell to the ground and lacked wheels. The slightly complete bricks and tiles had been moved away by nearby villagers, leaving only piles of broken rubble on the ground.
"Click!"
A crisp sound came from Zhang Xiaoluo's feet, and a piece of tiles was accidentally cut into two pieces by him. The crisp sound of breaking was particularly harsh in the dark villa.
Suddenly, a faint flame appeared in front of Zhang Xiaoluo. Zhang Xiaoluo lit a match, approached the flame, lit a cigarette in his mouth, and took a heavy sip. Then he slowly exhaled the smoke from his lungs. The flashing cigarette butts showed a bit of weirdness on Zhang Xiaoluo's calm and beautiful face.
While smoking, Zhang Xiaoluo slowly walked towards the second floor along the spiraling stairs in a corner of the hall on the first floor. The second floor was as messy as the hall, but there were rooms full of cement and gravel. The cement had solidified, and a large wooden sieve was covered with on it, pressing the cement into regular square pieces.
Zhang Xiaoluo searched one by one in room. A huge mouse suddenly jumped out of the darkness of the room and quickly fled towards the darkness in the distance, but accidentally fell from the unbuilt staircase on the second floor. After a few "squeaks", no movement came out.
On the second floor, he did not find what he was looking for, Zhang Xiaoluo finally turned his attention to the circling staircase leading to the top of the third floor in the corner of the second floor. The staircase was pitch black, like a wild beast with a huge mouth, waiting to devour everything approaching at any time.
"When doing business, integrity is the priority!"
Zhang Xiaoluo suddenly said softly, as if to himself and as if to others. He put the cigarette in his fingers between his lips again, took a sip, and raised his foot to the steps leading to the third floor.
The layout of the third floor is similar to the first floor lobby, and it is also a spacious lobby. Zhang Xiaoluo stood at the entrance of the stairs on the third floor, looking at a gray figure in the darkness in the corner.
He raised his hand gently and bounced the cigarette that was still left in his hand towards the second floor. The burning red cigarette butts of the cigarette drew a round curve in the air, falling heavily into the darkness on the second floor, and slowly extinguished.
Zhang Xiaoluo walked towards the figure in the corner step by step. He stopped just three meters away from his figure.
"Why imprison him?"
Zhang Xiaoluo looked at the familiar hospital gown in the corner, with a complex look in his eyes and asked softly.
"My child! He is my child! Don't steal my child!"
With endless resentment, the gray figure in the corner slowly raised his head. A pale face, a high raised belly, and blood flowing from the belly.
“He is my client!”
Zhang Xiaoluo looked at the boy who was tightly held in his arms by the female ghost and wearing a red jacket. The boy seemed to be sleeping, lying softly in the female ghost's arms. Looking at this scene, a burst of sorrow surged in his heart.
"He is my child! Don't even think about taking him away! Ah!"
The female ghost suddenly screamed shrillly, and the black hair on her head instantly turned blood red, as if she had just been fished out of the blood. Drops of dark red blood dripped from the ends of the hair, floating in the air, rotating rapidly.
"If you don't let him go, you will stop him from reincarnation and will only make him become a lonely ghost. As his resentment increases, he will eventually become a ghost!"
Zhang Xiaoluo said as he slowly leaned towards the female ghost, slowly stretched out his arm, and reached towards the ghost boy in the female ghost's arms.
"I hate that long-term husband, I hate the quack doctor who performed my surgery! I hate you even more! You can clearly save my child, but you watch him be taken away! I hate you! I want to kill all of you! I want to avenge my child!"
As the female ghost in sick clothes whispered softly, streams of black smoke slowly rose from the ground in the villa area, floating into the third floor of the villa, and was sucked into the body by the female ghost.
Seeing that the female ghost was getting more and more hostile, Zhang Xiaoluo did not dare to hesitate anymore. One hand approached the ghost boy who was still sleeping again, and the other hand quietly penetrated into his arms and took out a pile of small rusty copper coins.
The copper coins were stringed from a red silk thread, and a faint yellow halo was emitted in the dark villa.
Just when Zhang Xiaoluo was about to get into the ghost boy in the female ghost's arms, the female ghost suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of resentment. Her bloody and sticky long hair suddenly became longer and stabbed towards Zhang Xiaoluo as a chest.
The copper coin in Zhang Xiaoluo's hand shook and turned into a small gold sword. The red silk thread was in the middle and penetrated the entire gold sword. Zhang Xiaoluo held the gold sword in his right hand, stretched out two fingers with his left hand, and quickly passed over the gold sword body. The gold sword suddenly shone brightly.
Zhang Xiaoluo waved his sword to cut off the long blood-colored hair that was coming, and took a step forward, and the money sword stabbed straight towards the woman's chest. The woman roared angrily, took a step back, flashed into the darkness in the corner, and disappeared.
The temperature in the villa dropped rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, a thin layer of ice had formed on the windowsill. Zhang Xiaoluo looked at the darkness in the room and simply closed his eyes.
A gust of cold wind suddenly blew from behind him, but he did not turn around. With his wrist turned, the money sword had passed through his armpits.
A scream came out, and the money sword passed through the left chest of the female ghost who appeared. The resentment in the female ghost's eyes became even more intense, and a white ghost claw stretched out to grab the money sword. As soon as the ghost claw touched the money sword, it seemed as if it had touched boiling oil, and white smoke rose up. The female ghost was penetrated by the money sword's chest and struggled in pain, but could not move at all.
Zhang Xiaoluo turned his head, opened his eyes and looked at the female ghost who was struggling and roaring in pain, and sighed softly. The money sword was penetrated deeper and deeper, and finally seemed to penetrate the female ghost's body.
At this moment, the sleeping ghost boy in the female ghost's arms suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at Zhang Xiaoluo resentfully, and his black barefoot suddenly raised and kicked Zhang Xiaoluo in the chest.
Zhang Xiaoluo's body was kicked away, hitting the wall behind him, and then fell heavily on the ground. As Zhang Xiaoluo was kicked away, the money sword in his hand was also pulled out of the female ghost's body.
The female ghost hugged the ghost boy tightly in her arms, and there was a transparent hole in her left chest. The ghost boy in her arms fell asleep again after kicking Zhang Xiaoluo.
"You all want to take my children away! I want to kill you all! Kill you all! Hahaha!"
The female ghost looked at Zhang Xiaoluo who was struggling to stand up, and wanted to step forward again, but suddenly saw a string of tooth chains made of pale teeth on Zhang Xiaoluo's chest. After hesitating for a moment, she turned around and walked into the darkness at the entrance of the stairs, without any sound.
Zhang Xiaoluo stood up struggling, looked at the place where the female ghost and the ghost boy disappeared, and shrugged helplessly.
"I lost a lot this time. I wonder if I was kicked by my own client..."
