Fatal Game Syndrome

Chapter 82: Sacrifice to the River God 7

"Just arrest Zhang Gui?"

Li Dongyuan stuffed a steamed bun in his mouth and looked at Ruan Lanzhu, "So, Wu Huai agreed to make a deal with us?"

"That's right!" Ruan Lanzhu peeled an egg slowly, "Just tie up Zhang Gui and bring him here, and hand him over to Wu Huai when he comes in the evening. As for the murder, we don't need to do it. If everything goes well, we should be able to get out tomorrow!"

"Row!"

Li Dongyuan threw the unfinished steamed bun in his hand into the bowl, pretended to stand up, and was ready to go out and catch someone.

"What's the hurry?"

Cheng Qianli held Li Dongyuan's arm and said, "Let me eat two more bites!"

He hasn't eaten enough yet!

"I just know how to eat!"

Li Dongyuan rolled his eyes at him, and Cheng Qianli was unconvinced, "I'm still growing!"

But it was still early, and even if he went to catch Zhang Jiuzhi in the afternoon, he would still have time. Li Dongyuan picked up the steamed bun again, but before he put it into his mouth, he thought about the door again, "By the way, did you ask him where the door and the key are?"

When he was about to answer, he saw Brother Zhou and his men coming in from outside. Ling Jiushi winked and shut his mouth again. Li Dongyuan looked back and thought, these people got up really late!

wrong!

Li Dongyuan turned around and took another look. The leader was still Brother Zhou, but there were five of them in total, but now there are only three left?

The girl who flirted with him yesterday, and the weakling who disagreed with saving the sacrificed child, are both gone!

"Those two people are gone?"

Hearing this, Brother Zhou sighed deeply and shook his head at Li Dongyuan. They slept until dawn, and when they were about to go downstairs, they found that the two people living in the next room were gone.

"Actually, after you guys left last night, we wanted to persuade them to squeeze in, but they didn't want to sleep in the same bed with everyone else. Even at this time, they still cared about whether they were comfortable or not!"

This is what they deserve!

Brother Zhou sat down at the table next to him. He was not in a good mood, but he was still stuffing his breakfast into big mouthfuls.

Ling Jiushi glanced at Ruan Lanzhu and had no intention of telling Brother Zhou about their sect, nor did he mention the matter of capturing Zhang Jiuzhi.

After finishing their breakfast in silence, Ruan Lanzhu and his companions left directly. As for Brother Zhou and his companions, according to the plan, they still followed the route of offering sacrifices to the river god to look for clues about the door.

"With so many people, are we just going to do it right away?"

Li Dongyuan was a little hesitant. At this moment, they were standing at the door of Wu Huai's shop and looking at Zhang Jiuzhi. The vegetable market was very busy in the morning, with people coming and going everywhere. Although Zhang Jiuzhi's butcher shop was not as popular as others, there were still many people passing by. If they acted rashly, they didn't know if it would cause unrest.

"Let's go sit in the teahouse for a while. There won't be so many people around when lunch is ready!"

It happened that there were not many people in the tea shop at that time, and the owner of the tea shop was a little surprised to see Ruan Lanzhu and the others come in.

"Boss, Zhang Jiuzhi lives here alone? Doesn't he have any children?"

Ruan Lanzhu picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. It didn’t taste good, but it quenched his thirst!

"Whoa!"

The tea shop owner draped the table towel over his shoulder and simply sat down next to the table. He wasn't busy at the moment anyway, and he was quite interested in chatting with someone.

"This nine-fingered man is just a beast!"

"He gambled away all his family's money, and he and his son are the only ones left. But this guy is very good to his son. No matter how broke he was, he never used his son to pay off his debts."

"Where are his parents?"

The tea shop owner gets angry when talking about this. "His mother died early, and his father worked everywhere to help him pay off his gambling debts. Later, when he was building a house for someone else, he was crushed to death by a falling beam."

"What a scumbag!"

Tan Zaozao rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction. This guy has been a nuisance for thousands of years, so why didn’t he get crushed to death by the roof beam?

"What about his son? We just passed by and didn't see anyone else there?"

"He said he was sent to study in the next town. We haven't seen his son for a long time!"

Li Dongyuan didn't quite believe it. "He owes so much gambling debt, and he still has the money to send his son to school? This must be a lie, right? Did he sell it somewhere else?"

"this......."

The tea shop owner felt that the man was right. Why hadn't he thought of this problem before? Would he really sell it?

"Didn't you say you haven't seen his son for a long time? Even if he went to study in the next town, he can still come home, right? It's not like he's in jail!"

The more he listened, the more it made sense. The tea shop owner secretly thought that he would have to have a good discussion with his tea drinkers in the afternoon. It just so happened that there was no new topic at the moment!

Ruan Lanzhu had been observing the situation in the market. When most people in the market had left, he looked at his watch and saw that it was only about half past ten.

"go!"

Ruan Lanzhu stood up and straightened his clothes. There were only people setting up stalls inside. It was impossible for these people to close their stalls for a while, so it was a perfect time to go in and capture Zhang Jiuzhi.

When they arrived at the butcher shop, Zhang Jiuzhi was sharpening his knife. Seeing several people approaching, he just said lazily, "Let's take care of it yourself," and ignored them.

"Door!"

Ling Jiushi poked Ruan Lanzhu's waist. There was a black iron door on the left wall inside the shop. In front of the door was a wooden rack for hanging meat. It was not easy to see unless you got closer.

Ruan Lanzhu raised his eyebrows and said nothing, just looking at the man opposite him who was sharpening his knife with his head down.

Zhang Jiuzhi is neither tall nor strong, and looks mean and shabby. Even the moment he sharpens a knife gives people the feeling that he is about to go out and steal a chicken. The area where his left thumb is located is bald, and it means he is indeed missing a finger. It is definitely him!

"Zhang Gui!"

Zhang Jiuzhi raised his head and looked at the men in front of the shop. These men did not look like ordinary people, and they seemed out of place in his butcher shop and this vegetable market.

They are not here to buy meat, so they are here to...

Thinking of this, Zhang Jiuzhi ran away. Ruan Lanzhu and the others did not expect that this man was so vigilant. He was scared away just by calling his name?

Li Dongyuan chased after him, but many of the stalls in the market were not arranged in a regular manner, so it was difficult for him to catch up with him alone.

"Lingling, you and Cheng Qianli go block the exit!"

There was only one entrance to the vegetable market, and Ling Jiushi hurriedly took Cheng Qianli and Tan Zaozao to run towards the entrance, while Ruan Lanzhu blocked the direction where Zhang Jiuzhi was running, trying to catch him from the front and back with Li Dongyuan.

Zhang Jiuzhi did not put down the knife in his hand, and kept waving it around as he ran. For a moment, the market was in chaos, with screams everywhere, and passers-by outside the market gathered at the door to watch.

Zhang Jiuzhi saw that there were people blocking him from the front and back, so he stepped on the vegetable stall and rushed to the side. When he was almost at the door, he found that another man was standing there looking at him with a fierce look in his eyes.

However, this man doesn't look very threatening. Thinking of this, Zhang Jiuzhi raised his knife and gritted his teeth as he rushed over with a fierce look on his face. Seeing this, Ling Jiushi felt a little unhappy. Is he that weak?

Ling Jiushi picked up a wooden stick from the fish-killing stall next to him and smashed it in the face.

The stick hit his head hard, making him dazed. Then, in a rage, Zhang Jiuzhi, with red eyes, threw the knife in his hand towards Ling Jiushi. The butcher knife flew out with all his strength. Ruan Lanzhu, who rushed behind him, was so frightened that his knees almost went weak.

“Ling Ling!”

Ling Jiushi's reaction was not slow either. The tip of the knife brushed past his arm and cut the clothes on his arm.

"I'm going to your mother!"

Ruan Lanzhu jumped up and kicked Zhang Jiuzhi on the back. Zhang Jiuzhi felt as if his back was hit by the car and he fell to the ground. He was in so much pain that he couldn't move and blood gushed out of his mouth.

"Is it okay!"

Ruan Lanzhu looked at Ling Jiushi and examined him carefully. There was a cut on his arm, but it was not deep and it was not a big problem!

"I'm fine!"

Ling Jiushi held his hand and shook his head. Ruan Lanzhu had been frightened to the point of turning pale, and he hadn't recovered yet.

Li Dongyuan, who was out of breath from the chase, walked up and kicked him, then lifted Zhang Jiuzhi up from the ground like a dead dog. Ruan Lanzhu's kick was so powerful that the guy couldn't speak. He wanted to give him two more punches but was afraid that he couldn't hold on.

"All gone, all gone!"

Li Dongyuan waved his hand to let the onlookers disperse, and took Zhang Jiuzhi back just in time for lunch.

"This is?"

Brother Zhou looked at Zhang Jiuzhi who was thrown at the door by Li Dongyuan and was a little curious. Why are they still catching NPCs? Is there any clue?

"We were looking for the door, and he suddenly attacked us. We caught him and gave him a good lesson!"

Li Dongyuan brushed the dust off his hands and pointed at Ling Jiushi who had a cut on his arm.

NPC suddenly attacked the person passing by? Why? Although Zhou was very curious, he didn't ask any more questions because the person was injured.

Ruan Lanzhu lifted up Ling Jiushi's sleeve, picked up the white wine on the table and poured some out to disinfect him. Seeing Ling Jiushi grinning, he leaned over and blew on him carefully twice.

"Does it hurt?"

"fine!"

Ling Jiushi pushed him. It was just a small wound. Seeing Ruan Lanzhu taking it so seriously, he felt embarrassed. "Just put a band-aid on it when you go back."

"Ok!"

Ruan Lanzhu glanced at Zhang Jiuzhi who was lying on the ground like dead, but even though his kick was very heavy, he didn't use all his strength, so it wasn't enough to kill someone. What a hypocrite!

"We found the door!"

Hearing Ruan Lanzhu say that they had found the door, Brother Zhou and the others immediately sat up straight with their eyes lighting up and looked over here. They were one step closer to getting out alive!

"But the key hasn't been found yet!"

The eyes of several people dimmed again. The key is much harder to find than the door!

"But we have a clue!"

Brother Zhou and the other two gnashed their teeth. Are you teasing them?

But as long as the key gives us a clue, let’s just joke about it!

"This man is the key to changing the key, keep an eye on him today!"

"no problem!"

Brother Zhou readily agreed. There were eight people in total. It couldn't be that even an NPC was unreliable, right? Or someone who was beaten and tied to the ground.

After finishing the meal, Ruan Lanzhu took Ling Jiushi and Tan Zaozao back to the room. Li Dongyuan and Cheng Qianli stayed behind. "We have been chasing him for the whole morning. I will leave it to you guys from now on!"

After saying that, he lay down on the ground, leaving Brother Zhou and the other two looking at each other in bewilderment.

However, they were the ones who captured the person, so it was reasonable for them to be the ones to guard him.

Thank you for your love and support.

Thanks to the wandering little cotton and the obedient Huahua, I love you
