Chapter 622: The Past of the T-Shirt Man

I wanted to get up, but my body couldn't use any strength at all, and my limbs were twitching continuously.

The dry old man came up from behind, stepped on my head with his smelly slit rubber shoes, and said viciously: "Little boy, how many capable people have knelt down here, how can you be better than them?"

"I...I just wanted to find something...no offense intended."

Because my body was shaking so much, my voice was broken when I spoke.

I tried hard to prove that I had no ill intentions. On the one hand, I was stalling for time. On the other hand, I also wanted to understand why Dragon King Village was so xenophobic.

"Looking for something?"

The dry old man sneered and increased the force on his feet. I felt like my head was about to be crushed and it became extremely difficult to breathe.

I don't know how long it took before he moved his feet away from my head, turned around and took the Madonna's staff into his hand, stroked the Madonna's staff and smiled, saying that it was really a good treasure, but it was wasted in your hands.

After saying that, he shouted loudly, raised the staff of the Holy Mother with both hands, and smashed it down on my head!

If I were hit this time, my head would definitely turn into a cracked watermelon. Stimulated by a strong desire to survive, I rolled over violently and escaped the fatal blow.

The Madonna's Staff hit my shoulder hard, and I felt half of my body numb, and I couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood.

"Damn you!"

I opened my bloody mouth and cursed loudly. I felt that this person was a bit perverted. He didn't give him a chance to speak at all and was going to kill someone. After hearing this, the dry old man's eyes suddenly turned red and he shouted hysterically: "You are looking for death!"

Then he swung the Madonna's Staff again and smashed it down. I had already exhausted all my energy by dodging just now, and now I could only close my eyes and wait for death.

At this critical moment, the sound of a long sword being unsheathed suddenly came to my ears, and then I saw the man in a T-shirt flash out of the darkness with a blade of sword.

I opened my eyes in surprise and found that the man in the T-shirt had used the Eight-sided Han Sword to block the Holy Mother's Staff, and was now confronting the old man Ganba. The strange thing is that the two of them faced off for a long time, but no one took the initiative to take action.

The man in the T-shirt had his back to me, and I couldn't see his expression clearly, but I could see the dry old man's expression very clearly. He seemed to have complicated feelings for the man in the T-shirt. Although his eyebrows were extremely fierce, there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

They faced off like this for a few minutes, and the dry old man actually turned around and left. After he disappeared, his voice came from the distance: "Take this little baby and leave. For Yingying's sake, I'll let you go today. This It’s the last time!”

What he said was obviously to the man in the T-shirt, and there was indeed no Yingying in my mind. Thinking of the man in the T-shirt saying that his lover died in this village, I couldn't help but start gossiping.

"The injury is not serious, right?"

The man in the T-shirt pulled me up from the ground and quickly touched the acupuncture points on my limbs. I finally stopped twitching and shook my head with a wry smile to show that I was fine.

After all, the old man hit me directly and it was just a few superficial injuries. Then I asked him where he had been before.

"I followed him for a long time, only to find that he disappeared from the river, and then I realized that I had been tricked! I quickly chased him back, but fortunately I was not late."

The man in the T-shirt said, twisting his dripping clothes, sighing and saying, "Let's go! Leave before the old man regrets it."

After hearing what the man in the T-shirt said, I realized that the surrounding environment had changed. It seemed that the old man had withdrawn the illusion.

On the way back, I couldn't help but murmur in my heart. The man in the T-shirt seemed to be very afraid of that old man. What was the origin of that old man?

"He is my...father-in-law."

Before I could say anything, the man in the T-shirt took the initiative to speak out. Then his eyes turned red and he started telling me.

It turns out that Yingying is the daughter of the dry old man and the lover of the T-shirt man.

For unknown reasons, the villagers of Longwang Village have been guarding Longwang Village for generations and are extremely hostile to outsiders. Yingying grew up quickly under the influence of her father, and became a master at a young age, constantly killing intruders one by one.

Later, the T-shirt man came here to investigate the truth. Yingying took action again, but accidentally fell in love with the T-shirt man.

The two of them got together and naively thought they could convince the old man Ganba. Unexpectedly, the old man got furious and immediately forced Yingying to kill the man in the T-shirt.

The couple left Dragon King Village in desperation. After a while, Yingying thought that time would make her father relieved. Unexpectedly, old man Ganba did not change at all and still forced her to kill the man in the T-shirt. Yingying collapsed and finally chose to commit suicide. …

The dry old man didn't realize his regret until Yingying died, but he extremely put the responsibility on the man in the T-shirt. Perhaps out of guilt for his daughter, he finally let the T-shirt man go, but the two have maintained this hatred since then.

At this point, the man in the T-shirt sighed slightly: "Do you think I should kill him? He killed the woman I loved most, but he was that woman's father."

"sorry……"

As soon as I entered the village, I felt something was wrong with the man in the T-shirt. I thought about countless possibilities in private, but I never thought that things would be like this. It is difficult for an upright official to deal with family matters, not to mention the fact that it involves the murder of his wife and blood relationship, so I can do nothing but remain silent. I just feel sorry for him. Although I have always regarded him as a buddy, I know in my heart that he belongs to my elders just like the senior rat, Zen Master Baimei.

So I wondered more than once why he didn't get married, and now I finally understand.

After a long time, the man in the T-shirt recovered and said calmly: "Jiulin, I'm sorry! I can't use my sword against him. No matter how heinous he is, he is still my father-in-law."

"It's okay. Let's go look elsewhere and we will always find the Meridian Tears."

Before the man in the T-shirt finished speaking, I quickly replied with a smile, pretending to be indifferent, but my heart suddenly hurt.

Yin Xinyue is still waiting for me at home. If I can't find Meren Tears, how should I go back to see her?

But can I force the man in the t-shirt? He has done enough for me!

Now I understand why he, who has always been aloof and arrogant, was so cautious this time. He wanted to lead me to avoid my father-in-law and find Merlet Tears, but I didn't expect that the old man saw through our trick and played a trick on us.

In this way, our actions have become transparent, and the old man made it very clear that if he only lets us go this time, we will definitely fight to the death the next time we meet.

I thought for a while and said, "On the first day of the new year, if we can't do it, let's ask Zen Master Baimei. He is very knowledgeable and may have clues about the Shark's Tears."

The man in the T-shirt was not a pretentious person, so he did not dwell on the topic anymore, but gritted his teeth and nodded.

"I'm tired, let's sleep one night before leaving!"

After getting in the car, the man in the T-shirt did not drive immediately, but offered to rest in the car for the night. My whole body was about to fall apart, so I naturally didn’t have any objections. I lay half-lying on the back seat and fell asleep soon after.

While I was asleep, I suddenly heard Yin Xinyue crying. When I opened my eyes, I found that Yin Xinyue was wearing mourning clothes and a linen hat, kneeling in front of the bed and crying heartbrokenly.

Lying on the bed were the father-in-law and mother-in-law. Their faces were pale, their pupils were dilated, and they were obviously dead.

I didn't expect that the second elder would pass away so soon. I walked up to Yin Xinyue in despair and wanted to comfort Yin Xinyue. Unexpectedly, she pushed me away fiercely and shouted in pain: "Zhang Jiulin, you liar, liar..."

Yin Xinyue's words were heartbreaking. I gritted my teeth and wanted to hug her. Unexpectedly, Yin Xinyue, who had already collapsed, suddenly grabbed the scissors on the side and inserted them into her neck. Blood instantly spurted out on my face.

"Xinyue, no!"

I roared in pain and ran towards her, but there was a sharp pain in the top of my head.

I looked up and realized that I had hit the roof of the car. When I saw that I was still in the car, I knew that I had just had a nightmare, so I breathed a sigh of relief. While wiping cold sweat, I habitually looked out the window, but was horrified to find Yin Xinyue standing in front of the window with a bloodless face, looking at me with a dull look on her face.

I subconsciously wanted to open the door, but found that the door was locked, so I had to ask the man in a T-shirt to help me unlock it. When I turned around, I found that there was no one in the seat in front of me.

"what happened?"

I took out my phone in confusion and was about to call the man in the T-shirt, but I saw that he left me a text message, saying that he was out to do some errands, and locked me in the car for my safety, and also talked about the ghosts in this place. It's a very evil thing. It can enter people's dreams, so I don't take anything I dream seriously.

After reading the text message, my head was buzzing, and I thought to myself that no wonder I had the inexplicable dream that my father-in-law and mother-in-law died, and Xinyue committed suicide! I bet it's the kid who's causing trouble for me.

I looked at the little devil outside and sneered in my heart. I quietly took out a medium-sized magic talisman from my pocket and clamped it in my palm. Then I looked like I wanted to talk to her and hooked my hand at her. After she was completely attached to the car window, I suddenly put the charm on it!

The kid instantly transformed back into its original shape and wanted to run away in fear, but the medium-sized talisman drawn by the man in the T-shirt was extremely powerful and swallowed its body instantly.

"What a shame! It's really a tiger being bullied by a dog!"

I felt like I was holding a breath in my heart and couldn't help but curse. He has been through many storms and waves, but now he is being teased by this kid because he is looking for the Mermaid Tears.

Although the man in the T-shirt didn't mention what he was going to do in the text message, I knew he must be making a last-ditch effort for me. There was nothing he could do about leaving me in the car. After all, the dry old man might let him go at the critical moment, but he would not let me go!
