Chapter 2017 Li Mazi’s Responsibility

The light was very strange, becoming more and more brilliant in the flames.

I couldn't help but be curious, so I leaned over and took a look. It turned out that there was a stone the size of a fingernail embedded in this guy's body. After the muscles burned, the stone was exposed and fell to the ground.

The stone was white, but it showed a strange blue light in the flames.

I didn't dare to stay too long, so I picked up the small stone and left quickly.

After putting some black blood on the wound, the poison was greatly relieved. Although there was still a dull pain, it was no longer a problem.

After running quickly along the bottom of the ditch for a hundred or ten meters, the lights ahead flickered, as if a car was slowly driving over.

I stopped and took a closer look. It was the car that Li Mazi drove away. Was this guy worried that something might happen to me and came back to pick me up?

I looked around and saw no other vehicles passing by, so I quickly ran closer.

But there was no one in the car!

Use a branch to hold down the clutch and accelerator, and move forward slowly in low gear.

While I was wondering, there was a rustle of leaves from the deep ditch on the other side, and I was approaching the car.

Um?

Could it be that Li Mazi was killed? Is this a trap specially prepared for me?

I squeezed the invisible needle tightly and hid behind the car, following closely step by step and being cautious.

Suddenly, a black shadow whirled around the front of the car and struck straight at him with a ray of white light!

I was about to wave my hand and release the invisible needle, but suddenly I found that the figure was very familiar, it was Li Mazi!

He quickly turned aside and grabbed his wrist.

"Mazi, it's me!"

It was only then that Li Mazi recognized me, took a long breath and said, "Brother, are you okay?"

"Let's talk after we get in the car." I opened the door and jumped in.

Li Mazi put away the Lingyun Sword and got into the driver's seat.

"Brother Zhang, this wound seems to be poisonous! Shall we go to the hospital?" Li Mazi started the car and noticed that my wound seemed to be abnormal through the lights in the car, so he said urgently.

"No need." I shook my head and said, "Let's find a small hotel to stay in. I can deal with the poison myself. I have to find out the origin of this killer first!"

"Then should we call the police first?" Li Mazi asked.

"Why should I call the police? Once it is related to a murder case or arms, I can't explain it at all for a while. Besides, judging from this guy's methods, he is definitely not an ordinary killer. Once the police get involved, it may be even more... It's troublesome, maybe more innocent people will be implicated. Let's investigate secretly first, and it won't be too late to report it to the police when we find conclusive evidence." I replied.

Half an hour later, we arrived at the county seat. Without my instructions, Li Mazi parked the car in a secluded place without cameras, then walked two streets and found an inconspicuous small hotel.

"Mazi, you have made great progress. Who did you learn this skill of luring enemies with an empty hand?" After entering the room, I asked while taking off Li Mazi's coat.

I thought Li Mazi would brag proudly, but who would have thought that Li Mazi actually let out a long sigh with a dark look on his face: "Brother, I have already thought about it. To put it nicely, our business of being a ghost dealer is... It’s about exorcising ghosts and evil, doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, but in the eyes of outsiders, what do we do? Dealing with dead people’s things all day long, or simply being a bad guy! There is no difference from those deceitful scum! Unless they really meet What happened has to be found on us, otherwise who would want to deal with us?"

What he said was so confusing that I was confused.

"Then you mean... there is no difference between us and those shameless people who commit crimes? So the methods we use are the same?"

Li Mazi did not answer my words and continued: "Brother, let me tell you the truth. I never wanted to learn this stuff before, just for this reason. I don't want people to say that Xiaomeng has a crazy father. You Did you know that when he was in school, he told his classmates what I did? He said I was a wholesaler of handicrafts."

"Don't talk about femininity. He doesn't even dare to mention the word antique. He thinks that the femininity dealer is very shameful and will be looked down upon by others! I have also thought about it and will never let him come into contact with this business. Never. ! Just imagine how we will feel when Xiaomeng and Fanfan grow up and follow our old path, always wandering on the edge of life and death."

"Brother, I don't know why your old man wants you to take over this small shop and start a business as a fetish merchant. But I advise you not to let Fanfan learn this. Doctor, lawyer, Or you can do business, teach or anything, just don’t follow our old path.”

After hearing what he said, I became a little silent.

Since I met Li Mazi, this is the first time he has talked to me about such a heavy topic.

Li Mazi was right.

The business of being a ghost dealer is not well understood by the world. Most of the time, it is lumped together with witches and magicians, and it cannot be put on the stage at all.

Moreover, there is a life and death crisis at every moment.

Not to mention me, how many times has Li Mazi suffered this? Which ordinary industry would experience so many life and death tests?

If one day Fanfan embarks on this path like me...

"So, I have thought about it." Li Mazi was silent for a while and said: "Although this industry is not understood by others, I know very well that we have done a lot of good things. And even if I want to quit now, it is not difficult It's possible. Instead of messing around all the time, it's better to step down and learn some skills. Last time in Hangzhou, you also said that there may be many dangers in the future. Forget it just for us, and Fanfan, Xiaomeng, Xinyue and Xia Qin can't bring danger to them anymore, right?"

"I've been following you for so long, but I haven't made any progress at all. I used to think it was nothing, as long as I can make money. But now I finally understand that I also have a responsibility! I can't always rely on you! Even if I can't help, I can't help you. I must not become a burden to you or hold you back! Brother Zhang, don’t worry. From now on, I, Li Mazi, will definitely learn my skills steadily! At least I can protect our family and prevent you from being distracted! As long as If I can do this, I will learn and use any tricks, no matter whether they are dirty or dirty, despicable or not."

Li Mazi's eyes were extremely firm, revealing an expression he had never seen before.

I patted his shoulder hard and said nothing.

Today, Li Mazi finally realizes his own responsibility and mission!
