end of ten days.

At dawn, Qi Xia and Qiao Jiajin walked out the door.

The ground tiger is not here, so he should not be at work yet.

The ants are not here, so I should be off work.

The khaki sun climbed into the sky against the morning stench, heralding the official opening of the first day of this cycle.

Qiao Jiajin stretched his waist and turned his head to ask, "Liar boy, do we have to wait here forever?"

"Well, wait a minute."

The two didn't know what time it was, they only knew that after waiting for about an hour, Qiao Jiajin was so bored that he was squatting on the ground digging sand, and the ground tiger lazily appeared from the side portal.

He saw the two of them at a glance.

"Yo, it's very early." The ground tiger walked over casually, found a step and sat down slowly.

"It's not early, we waited for an hour." Qi Xia said.

"Yeah." Dihu nodded, then raised his eyelids and asked, "Has the item been delivered?"

After hearing this, Qi Xia took out the bag of snacks from his pocket and threw it to the ground tiger.

"We can't deliver anything."

This sentence made Qiao Jiajin swallow his saliva, he did not expect Qi Xia to really tell the truth.

He was a little afraid that the tiger-headed man in front of him would suddenly get angry, and the two of them would surely be doomed.

"Why can't it be delivered?" the ground tiger asked.

"The child is dead."

"Oh...?" The ground tiger's expression was a little strange, "You said she died?"

"En." Qi Xia nodded.

"Heh..." Dihu stood up slowly after hearing this, and said meaningfully, "Boy, you are smart, if you dare to tell me that the things have been delivered, I will let you go around without food."

After hearing this, Qi Xia slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "You already knew she was dead?"

A trace of sadness flashed across the ground tiger's face.

"It's been almost a month...I don't see her coming to get together after get off work every day..."

The two of them didn't know what the relationship between the ground tiger and the human mouse was, so they couldn't speak, they could only watch him sad quietly.

"I really miss her..." Dihu slowly raised his head and asked, "Have you been dead for a long time?"

"Well, 20 days?" Qiao Jiajin nodded, but Qi Xia didn't feel right.

The ground tiger's expression darkened instantly.

"So... a corpse that has been decomposing for more than 20 days, why do you conclude that she is a "child"? "The ground tiger asked Qi Xia with cold eyes.

Qi Xia knew that this matter must not be hidden.

"I killed the person." Qi Xia said, "I bet her to death."

"It's a dead bet...?" Di Hu was slightly taken aback.

"Yes... I bet my life with her..."

"Your mother..."

The ground tiger stood up slowly, looking very angry, which made Qiao Jiajin nervous for a while.

But just a few seconds later, the land tiger was like a deflated ball, and its expression gradually lost its expression.

"You said "gambling to death"...then when she died...did she not suffer? "There seemed to be tears in the ground tiger's eyes.

Qi Xia thought for a while, then nodded and said: "No, she committed suicide, she was killed by a pistol blow."

"Then...that's good..." Dihu nodded, constantly rubbing the crumpled bag of snacks in his hand, "little mouse, you are free."

Hearing the words "You are free", Qi Xia's head flashed with an electric shock, causing an inexplicable pain.

He quickly interrupted his train of thought and asked Dihu: "So what about our "deal"? "

"I will help you keep your "Tao" well, if one day you let me meet that person... all the "Tao" will be returned in full, not a single one. "The ground tiger paused after finishing speaking, and then said, "If you dare to lie to me..."

"No." Qi Xia shook his head, "Those "Tao" are all I have, I don't need to use them to lie to you. "

After hearing this, the ground tiger nodded slightly.

"Then I'm going to... just help you find the 'Sky Goat', right? "

"What the hell are you thinking?" Dihu smirked angrily, "I asked you to deliver snacks for me, but you didn't deliver them. Logically speaking, shouldn't I change the terms?"

Qi Xia was not surprised when he heard it, but nodded: "That's right. Tell me, I'll listen."

Dihu stretched out his hand slowly, pointed in another direction, and said: "Walk forward for half an hour from here, and you will see a bar. Below that bar is a casino, which is the game venue of "Di Sheep". want his life. "

"What...?" Qi Xia was taken aback, "To kill him?"

"Go and kill him for me, and I will agree to all your requests."

Qi Xia and Qiao Jiajin looked at each other, this condition was too harsh.

"Landhu, you should know... As a "participant", I want to kill "Zodiac", only through gambling. "

"Yes, I know."

"How could I fight "Di Sheep" without knowing anything? "Qi Xia frowned, "If I die, then everything is over, how can you see "Heavenly Sheep"?" "

After hearing this, the ground tiger slowly pursed his lips, and seemed to feel that his request was a bit too much.

"Then I want him to learn a lesson... What do you think should be done?"

After hearing this, Qi Xia also thought about it, and asked: "Dihu, although the "Tao" is useless to you, but if I win all the "Tao" from Diyang, will it be a lesson for him? "

"You want to win all the "Tao" of the "Di Sheep"...? "The ground tiger felt that the man in front of him was a bit ridiculous, "Do you know what "sheep" stands for?" "

"Of course I know." Qi Xia nodded, "In terms of this specialty, I don't think he is worse than him."

Dihu began to re-examine Qi Xia, this person gave him a different feeling.

"That being the case... I'll change my request." Dihu said, "I want you to go to Diyang's game alone and win all the "Tao" in his hand, so that I can laugh at him tonight. "

After hearing this, Qi Xia thought for a while, and said, "I must be the one going alone...?"

"That's right." Dihu smiled innocently, "I want to confirm whether you are a qualified partner."

"Okay, deal." Qi Xia looked up at the sky, "Before you "get off work" today, I'll report the results to you. "

Dihu nodded, and asked politely: "It's rare to have a repeat customer, do you two want to come to my game to experience it again?"

The two shook their heads and waved their hands.

It seems that the ground tiger is quite happy. He refused to kill people before, but now he started to take the initiative to solicit customers.

Qi Xia and Qiao Jiajin bid farewell to the ground tiger and headed back toward the rising sun.

"Fist..." Qi Xia said, "You go back and tell them about this, I'll go to the venue of "Di Sheep". "

"But do you have the money to buy tickets?" Qiao Jiajin was taken aback for a moment.

"This..." Qi Xia also ignored this question, he just gave all the "Tao" to Dihu.

"Look!" Qiao Jiajin suddenly took out five "Dao" from his pants pocket, "I stole them last night!"

Qi Xia showed a helpless expression after hearing this.

"I said...the so-called "stealing" should not be let me know..." Qi Xia didn't even know how to persuade Qiao Jiajin, "You should hide these five "Taos" by yourself, you should take them out now. Come out to save me, this is not called "stealing"..."

"Liar, I was afraid that the tiger would turn his back on us and we would lose everything, so I stole these five!" Qiao Jiajin said righteously.

"Okay..." Qi Xia nodded, and took five "Dao".
