The hunchbacked old man didn't take Song Jiang and Meng Zhe seriously at all. He sneered and said, "To tell you the truth, I was a fisherman when I was young. Don't look at me now with a hunchback... I can mess with you two little babies." It’s still not a problem.”
Meng Zhe felt a little funny after hearing this, so he pulled up a chair next to him and sat down and said, "Little baby? When I was a little baby, your eighteenth generation ancestor was not even a cell?! I advise you to answer the questions we are going to ask honestly. Whether you are really deaf or pretending to be mute has nothing to do with us. Otherwise..."
When Meng Zhe said this, he slowly squinted at the four-open wooden door behind him. Then he saw that the wooden door was slammed shut by an invisible strange force with a "bang", and he was suddenly hunched over in shock. The old man turned blue.
"You...who are you?!" the hunchbacked old man asked tremblingly.
Meng Zhe smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'll scare you to death. Anyway, they are people you can't afford to offend in your life. Stop talking nonsense and answer the first question now. What happened to those who drowned?" thing?"
Although the hunchbacked old man was frightened by Meng Zhe's move to close the door in the air, he was still thinking about how to escape from the predicament at hand. Until Meng Zhe asked him what happened to the drowned people, he Only then did I realize that my good luck over the years may be coming to an end...
"I don't understand what you are talking about?" the hunchbacked old man said with evasive eyes.
Meng Zhe saw that the other party was not crying even after seeing the coffin, so he glanced at the resentful ghosts on his body and asked, "You weren't hunchbacked before, were you?!"
The hunchbacked old man was stunned, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Meng Zhe and said, "How do you know? I...I have been hiding here for more than ten years, and no one remembers my original appearance."
Meng Zhe smiled and said, "Want to know why you are slowly turning into a hunchback?!"
"When people get old, their bones become bent. Isn't it normal to have a hunchback?" The old man with a hunchback said with a pale face.
But Meng Zhe shook his head and sighed, "To tell you the truth, you are carrying seven resentful ghosts on your body now... Although the ghosts themselves have no weight, the invisible resentment does, and the resentment on each of them is weighed down on them. On your back, as time goes by, your spine will naturally be bent little by little. Could it be that you have never felt that your body is getting heavier and heavier, making you almost breathless? !”
They say that if you don't do anything bad during the day, you won't be afraid of ghosts calling at the door in the middle of the night, but the hunchbacked old man in front of you is obviously not the former. After he heard Meng Zhe say this, he immediately turned around and slapped himself hard on both shoulders, with a very frightened expression...
Meng Zhe sneered when he saw it, "It's useless, these resentful ghosts will only pester you... until you die."
Song Jiang was curious and asked, "How many people have you killed?!"
"I didn't kill them! They killed themselves because they couldn't think about it!" The hunchbacked old man suddenly collapsed and yelled.
But Meng Zhe didn't believe what the other party said at all, and snorted, "Then why don't they pester others? Why do they pester you?!"
At this time, the hunchbacked old man had somewhat regained his composure, and he asked in a trembling voice, "You... who are you? Do you think there is a ghost in me?!"
After hearing this, Meng Zhe casually described the characteristics of two of the resentful ghosts, "On your shoulder is a woman squatting. She looks like she is in her early twenties, with red hair and a black mole the size of a rice grain on her forehead. Next to her There is also a middle-aged man with a fat figure, a Mediterranean hairstyle, and pockmarks on his face... What do you think, do you want me to continue?"
"Don't... please stop talking!" the hunchbacked old man shouted, covering his ears.
Meng Zhe's face gradually darkened at this time, and he said calmly, "As long as you tell the truth, I may be able to help you get rid of these seven resentful ghosts, so you'd better think clearly before talking."
Finally, under Meng Zhe's coercion, the hunchbacked old man revealed his true identity and the origins of the seven resentful ghosts he carried...
The hunchbacked old man's name is Zhou Dajiang. His real age is only in his early fifties. He was indeed a fisherman when he was young. Later, because he didn't want to continue to make a living on the water, he relied on his strength to do odd jobs here and there.
Later, when he was working, he met a woman named Zhao Lingling. When he saw that she was good-looking, Zhou Dajiang wanted to take her home as his wife. Who knows that this Zhao Lingling is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Before she even touches it, she keeps asking Zhou Dajiang for money with various excuses every day...
At first, Zhou Dajiang could satisfy Zhao Lingling's appetite, but as time went by, she couldn't bear it. She spent tens of thousands of Zhou Dajiang's hard-earned money, and it didn't make sense to always give him this. So Zhou Dajiang proposed an idea to Zhao Lingling. The requirement to get married.
What Zhou Dajiang didn't expect was that Zhao Lingling agreed immediately, but at the same time she also put forward a condition, which was that Zhou Dajiang must give her mother's family a gift of 100,000 yuan.
In fact, in Zhou Dajiang's hometown, the woman's request for a bride price of 100,000 yuan from the man is not too much, but Zhou Dajiang's current conditions are not to mention 100,000 yuan, and even 10,000 yuan is not something he can come up with... He is blinded by love. Zhou Dajiang didn't want to give up, so he wanted to take risks and find a way to get the money as soon as possible.
At first, Zhou Dajiang wanted to imitate the plots of police and gangster movies and rob banks. However, he found that the gap between reality and film and television dramas was quite large, so he temporarily changed his "big plan" to a "small plan" and rob a bank. It became a tribulation.
Unfortunately, the plan became smaller and the distance from completing the goal became further. In addition, Zhao Lingling was pressing hard, so he thought about it and thought about either not doing it or doing something big. Count the ball in one go!
After several days of observation and squatting, Zhou Dajiang finally targeted Wu Lin, the financial manager of the construction company where he had been working... Because the company had to pay workers on the 15th of every month, Wu Lin usually They would take the money out of the bank one day in advance and put it in the safe in the financial room, and then wait until the next day to pay all workers. So Zhou Dajiang wanted to grab all the money before Wu Lin returned to the company after withdrawing the money, so that all problems could be solved at once.
After Zhou Dajiang planned everything, he took a fish-killing knife that he always carried with him and secretly squatted near the bank branch that Wu Lin went to every month. He originally wanted to grab the money when Wu Lin came out of the bank, but when he approached Wu Lin's car, he discovered that there was a woman sitting in the other car...
