Last Totem Novel - Chapter 490
Chapter 490 Brag
In the evening, the rain stopped.
Iron Mountain Town gradually regained its liveliness. Looking around, the orange-red light shone on the wet streets. From the rusty iron sheet to the seven-to-eight wooden wall, to the roofs covered with rubber and plastic paper, the entire world was dyed red.
The smoke was faint and filled the air with the fragrance of cooking, and the laughter of the children reverberated through the streets once again.
Under the setting sun, Lard-bucket walked through a familiar alley after giving money to each family. He came to a corner of the town’s main street, pushed open the door of a bar, and walked in.
“It’s closed.” Old Zach, who was cleaning the dishes, raised his head and looked at Lard-bucket in front of the bar. He said lazily, then lowered his head and continued to clean his dishes.
“Bullshit, what time is it now? A glass of ale, please!” As he spoke, Lard-bucket slapped out a gold coin.
“Oh? So it’s a big boss. Aiya, I’m really disrespectful.” Zach looked at the gold coins on the bar and said in a weird tone.
“Old man, we can’t take this money. Who knows where it came from?” Lard-bucket frowned. Just as he was about to explode, a sharp voice came from behind him.
“Killing and robbing, what’s wrong?” Lard-bucket slammed the table, stood up, and shouted at the woman standing behind him with her hands on her hips, glaring at him.
“Crash …” At the same time, the sound of pushing the seat away resounded in the surroundings. Sturdy figures stood up in the dim light.
“You want to fight?” Lu Shanhai smiled coldly and clenched his fists. The thick joints chuckled, making one feel endless toothache.
“Get out! You’re not welcome here!” Old Zach’s face darkened as he leaned forward and touched the shotgun below the stage.
“Hey, hey, hey, hey! Don’t act recklessly, I’m from Brother Tie.” Seeing that the conflict was about to break out, Lard-bucket hurriedly pulled out a shield and pointed at Old Zach’s nose, threatening him loudly. With so many people rushing forward, he really couldn’t bear it.
The people in the bar were stunned. They all looked at each other, as if they were stunned by this sentence. However, Old Zach quickly regained his senses and cursed, “You killed so many old neighbors, how dare you come back!”
“I came back to deliver the money!” Lu Shanhai said righteously.
“Then hurry up and leave!” Old Zach picked up his gun and loaded it with a “cracking” sound. He pointed at Lard-bucket and said.
“Come, fight here. You’re welcome. It’s a bear that missed.” Lard-bucket turned around, straightened his chest, and said to the muzzle of the gun.
“I’ve killed many people in my life, not a few of you.” Old Zach said in a deep voice.
“This time, not only will I have to give money, I will also have to hire more people to reopen the company. What’s wrong? Can’t I?” Lard-bucket raised his head and said.
“Bullshit! You don’t wash your face. Look in the mirror and see who else is willing to follow you.” Old Zach said.
‘”Not with me” Lard-bucket suddenly lowered his volume and leaned forward, saying mysteriously, “It’s with our Brother Tie.”
“Bullshit! He’s already crippled. I saw him with my own eyes, and I definitely won’t fake it …” Old Zach shouted, but his face was filled with doubt.
“Can’t you work if you’re crippled? Can’t beat the world if you’re crippled? Our Brother Tie only has one hand and one leg left. He can still kill you.” Lard-bucket said righteously.
“This” Old Zach hesitated for a while before finally lowering his gun and asking with uncertainty, “Really?”
“Of course!” Lard-bucket shouted roughly, then sat down at the bar and asked, “Have a glass of wine! Big one.”
“Barren Mountain idiot” Old Zach’s mother-in-law cursed softly before turning around and leaving.
“Is it really Brother Tie?” Old Zach poured wine from one side and said hesitantly.
“Then do you still need to say it?” Then, Lard-bucket glanced left and right, approached Old Zach, and said, “Don’t tell anywhere, he has many enemies …”
“I know, I know” Old Zach revealed a mouthful of uneven yellow teeth and happily said as he pushed the wine cup in his hand over.
‘”Hualala” A sound of pulling open a chair and sitting down came from behind him.
“Our Brother Tie is awesome now” Lard-bucket picked up the wooden glass and took a big sip. “You know what” he said mysteriously.
“You know what?” Old Zach’s eyes widened with curiosity.
“Saint rank, several, no, dozens of Saint rank women. Bring him tea, beat his shoulders and back, wash his feet, and serve him” Lard-bucket said.
“You can brag. No matter how powerful he is, it’s impossible. What is that Saint rank? Crushing us to death is like crushing an ant to death.” Old Zach’s face was filled with disbelief.
“What are you blowing?!” Lard-bucket’s face was stiff, and he frowned. The expression on his face was like a volcano that was about to erupt. “You don’t even think about who he is …”
“Who is it?” Old Zach was dumbfounded.
“Wilderness Knight, didn’t you read the newspaper? That Saint …” At this point, Lard-bucket glanced left and right again and whispered into Old Zach’s ear. “He’s already done with the Temple Princess. What the hell is a Saint …”
“That’s right” Old Zach nodded thoughtfully, as if he had come to a sudden realization.
“Tomorrow … help me recruit some people.” Lard-bucket took the opportunity to say.
“What?” “I mean, help me recruit some people … miners …” “Uh …” “Not for me, but for Brother Tie.” “Uh …” “Tomorrow, put up a sign at the entrance of the shop and write down the job offer. That’s enough.”
“Bullshit!” Old Zach suddenly scolded. His saliva sprayed all over Lard-bucket’s face. Then, he asked coldly, “Do you know what everyone is saying about you now?”
“What do you mean?” Lard-bucket’s face was blank.
“Barren Mountain idiot.” “This … this …” “Tell me, who is willing to work with you now?”
‘”Sigh” Lard-bucket let out a long sigh, his expression extremely depressed.
After a long silence, Old Zach suddenly said, “Forget it. For the sake of Old Man Tie’s son, I’ll give you an idea.”
“Please speak.” Lard-bucket raised his head and his eyes lit up as he asked.
“Find a respected …” “Old flute?” “Old Di, don’t even think about it. I’m the vice captain of the garrison. I’m here to look after big sister.” “Who is that?” “Immortal Doctor Miaomiao …”
“Eh … this … this is okay!” Lard-bucket immediately smiled and took out his inner pocket. With a “ding” sound, he threw another gold coin on the bar counter.
The next morning, Lard-bucket arrived at the small clinic in Divine Doctor Shui, kicked the door open and barged in.
At this time, there were quite a few patients in the clinic, some lying on their beds against the wall with hanging needles, some sitting in the lounge waiting.
“Rest today” As soon as Lard-bucket entered, he pulled out his pistol from his waist and was about to shout the word “close” when a cold gaze swept past his neck, as fast as lightning. His hair stood on end and he stopped.
Turning his head, he saw an old man half-lying on the hospital bed in the corner, staring at him. That face was extremely fierce, and his gaze was as fiery as a torch. His entire body emitted a murderous aura as if it was real. It was the boss of the Ghost Horn Society, Gui Tou.
Tie Zha dares to offend someone, and that means he also dares to offend. The moment he saw the ghost head, he immediately put away his pistol and pretended to be fine.
“What are you doing!” Divine Doctor Shui blocked it and shouted at Lard-bucket.
‘”Something urgent, something urgent” Lard-bucket smiled dryly and said.
“If you don’t come back for a few years, you’ll cause trouble as soon as you come back. What kind of manners do you have?” Divine Doctor Shui said with his eyebrows crossed.
‘”Yes, yes …” Lard-bucket hurriedly smiled.
Not long after, the two of them sat down in the cubicle of the clinic. Lard-bucket spoke of his intentions.
Divine Doctor Shui hesitated. A few months ago, when Lena took Tie Zha away, Tie Zha had already lost most of his limbs and only had one breath left.
“He’s fine. He’s alive and kicking.” Said Lard-bucket.
“Did you undergo a transformation operation?” Divine Doctor Shui guessed that, according to his understanding, Tie Zha’s only way to survive was to become a remoulder. But at that time, the radiation toxin in Tie Zha’s body was hundreds of times higher than normal. Even if he removed his brain and spine, he would not be able to survive for a long time.
“Seems like … no …” Lard-bucket recalled. Although he was in a hurry, he remembered that Tie Zha was wearing a tarpaulin uniform. There were no physical problems, nor did he feel mechanized.
“This … this is what happened?” Divine Doctor Shui asked doubtfully.
“Forget it, he’s fine now anyway. He can eat, sleep and beat people up …” Then, Lard-bucket said intentionally or unintentionally, “Oh, right, he set up a company in Desert Five. Let’s go over and help. We can all earn money together.”
“Ah! He really has the ability to go to Desert Five.” Divine Doctor Shui sighed.
“That’s” Lard-bucket nodded, then looked outside the door and said, “Let’s go out and barge in together.”
“No, no …” Divine Doctor Shui shook his head and said, “What about the patients here after I leave?” Divine Doctor Shui asked.
“I heard your business is not as good as it used to be” Lard-bucket said, pointing slightly. “Isn’t there a clinic across the street?”
As soon as he mentioned this matter, Divine Doctor Shui became excited.
“What the hell do they know? They just seduce people with little nurses. It’s a mess!” Said Divine Doctor Shui indignantly.
“Let’s go. It’s boring to stay in this small place. Let’s fight Brother Tie together.” Lard-bucket advised.
‘”Sigh” Divine Doctor Shui sighed. “If I were twenty years younger, I might not hesitate to nod my head. But now that I’m old and my legs are no longer agile, I won’t drag you down anymore.”
“How could it be?” Looking at the old doctor’s gray temples, Lard-bucket said casually, but his heart was not feeling good. As the saying goes, a person is as old as the setting sun, and there are some things that he is truly unable to accomplish.
After a moment of silence, Divine Doctor Shui said, “If you’re looking for someone, I have some news.”
When Lard-bucket asked for any information, Divine Doctor Shui said that Old Bull had returned a few days ago. He went to sweep Ye Xinling’s tomb and came to the clinic to sit for a while. He said that he was currently working in the Great Wall Company.
“Alright!” Hearing the news, Lard-bucket immediately slapped his thigh and stood up.
