Chapter 45 Barber
Chapter 45 Barber
Tin Kee Barber Shop.
This is the only barber shop in the black town, and the barber is called Lao Tian.
He is a middle-aged man with a round face and always has a kind smile on his face.
Unlike the paper craftsman at Zhaoji Funeral Shop, he had a good relationship with the townspeople.
The townspeople have a very good opinion of him and will come to him if they need help.
But few people know that Lao Tian is actually a cultist.
Anyone whose hair he shaved would have a portion of their lifespan shaved off, and they would be offered as a sacrifice to the evil god.
Although the evil god never paid any attention to him, Lao Tian still offered sacrifices tirelessly.
He believed that as long as he was devout enough, he would be able to impress the evil god one day.
A familiar cultist came in and told him a piece of news: "There's a powerful guy in town, a new murderer."
Lao Tian became interested: "Oh? How amazing is it?"
Another cultist replied: "The bishop said he killed the Nightmare."
Lao Tian exclaimed: "Oh! That's really unusual!"
"He is indeed a powerful character who can kill Nightmare."
Another cultist: "This is also the fault of the paper craftsman. He sold the paper figurine to the nightmare. Later, the paper figurine and the nightmare started fighting. The nightmare took advantage of it."
"If it weren't for the paper figurines made by the old paper craftsman, he might not be a match for Nightmare."
Old Tian narrowed his eyes and said, "When will that old immortal thing die?"
Many people have had conflicts with the papermaker, including him.
If it weren't for the paper craftsman's strange methods, he would have been killed by them together.
Another cultist said: "The bishop told everyone to be careful and wait until tonight when we will enter the dream together and surround and kill the murderer."
Lao Tian nodded: "No problem, I will go there then."
"There are so many of us, and we are in a dream. Even if the murderer is very strong, how can he deal with so many people?"
Another cultist nodded: "Indeed, that dream is already our home ground."
"The bishop is worried that he will attack us before he enters the dream, so he hopes everyone will keep a low profile and not reveal any flaws."
Lao Tian was not nervous at all: "I have been a barber here all these years, no one would doubt my identity at all."
"You guys, on the other hand, have to be careful and don't get caught."
Another cultist nodded: "Don't worry, I understand."
"Your Excellency the Bishop has another mission, which is to find out the details of the murderer."
"He is an outsider. We have to start with his companions. If there is a chance, we can do it."
"Look at that boy, what is his origin?"
"The bishop said that the murderer's name is 'Game House'."
……
As they were talking, three people came outside the barber shop.
It was none other than the invincible Phineas, the thief and the scapegoat trio.
They went to the sheriff's office to inquire, but they refused to take them out of town.
There was no choice but to find another car in town.
I heard from the townspeople that the owner of Tian Ji Barber Shop has a car and is very easy to talk to, so I thought of coming over to ask.
The three of them walked into the store and found no one inside.
Invincible Fei Ge called out, "Boss, is anyone there?"
The boss Lao Tian, who was talking to the cultists in the back, heard the noise and quickly came out.
Seeing that they were three unfamiliar faces, I became a little wary.
Could the murderer who killed Nightmare be among them?
He couldn't see the gamer tag, so he wasn't sure if there were any game geeks among them.
Old Tian had a warm smile on his face: "You three look unfamiliar. Are you not from here? Do you want to get a haircut?"
Invincible Phineas: "No, Boss, we want to leave town. We heard you have a car, so we would like to ask you to give us a ride."
Old Tian’s mind was racing.
Get yourself to get them out of town.
That murderous game geek wouldn't do that, which means he's not in the middle.
In that case, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Other outsiders were just ordinary tourists and could not be his opponents. Fei Ge continued, "Boss, we won't let you make a wasted trip. We will pay you."
The thief followed suit and said, "Yeah! Boss, I see your store doesn't have much business right now, why don't you make some extra money."
Lao Tian thought, this was indeed a great opportunity.
It was a good opportunity to drive them outside and force them to give information about the murderer.
And he can also do his old job and shave people’s heads.
Shaving, as the name suggests, is to shave the head from the neck. Before becoming a barber, Lao Tian did this.
Lao Tian said, "That makes sense. I'll go drive now."
Seeing that he agreed, Fei Ge and the other two felt relieved.
I hope everything goes well and we can successfully escape from the town.
After getting in the car.
Brother Fei asked, "Let's just leave town like this, there won't be any accidents, right?"
"Yesterday a bus had an accident and killed two people. It was so scary."
Lao Tian smiled and said, "No, I'm a local, an experienced driver, and I've been out of town more than once or twice, so how could something go wrong?"
Brother Fei breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, as long as you send us out of town, money is not a problem at all."
Anyway, after leaving the town, their mission will be completed and they can leave the copy directly.
They didn’t have to give the promised money, so it was naturally a casual promise.
The car drove out of town.
He pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "I heard that one of your companions is very powerful. He seems to have become a murderer and killed Nightmare. Who is this person?"
Brother Fei, the thief and the scapegoat were all confused.
In order to keep Su Ming a secret, Brother Fu didn't tell them any of these details.
So the three of them had no idea what Lao Tian meant.
"A murderer? What is that?"
"What is a nightmare?"
"I don't understand! Big brother, explain in detail."
"There shouldn't be anyone this fierce among us, right?"
"Brother, where did you hear this? Is it true?"
……
Old Tian listened to what the three people said and it seemed that they were not lying.
So I asked in more detail: "I heard that the guy is called Game House, there should be someone with this name among your companions, right?"
He wanted to figure out what method the murderer used to kill Nightmare.
Only when you know yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger.
Thief: "Game nerd? Are you kidding me?!"
Scapegoat: "Indeed, that guy is a public beta player just like us. How could he be so powerful and kill Nightmare?"
Thief: "If we were to say who is the strongest among us, it would definitely be our Brother Fei! He is the only beta test master!"
Wudi Fei Ge said modestly: "Thank you, thank you. I just have more experience, I am not much better than you!"
Thief: "Oh, Brother Fei is so modest."
The scapegoat: "It's like this, that rich guy is really blind. He would rather trust that game geek than hang out with Fei Ge."
"He regretted it later!"
……
In Lao Tian's ears, the proprietary terms such as novice players and beta test players were automatically translated into words with similar meanings.
For example, people who have just joined the tour group, senior members of the tour group and so on.
Old Tian understood what they meant.
Then I felt that they underestimated my intelligence.
This guy called Brother Fei only looks a little stronger than the average person.
With this strength, you dare to boast that you are stronger than the game nerd who killed Nightmare?
This is treating him like a fool!
squeak--
He slammed on the brakes with a cruel smile on his face: "Since this Brother Fei is so powerful, Tian would like to experience your skills today."
