Chapter 6, the insects crawling in the palm
"It is two cats and three dogs..." I corrected from the side
The movement was so swift that I could hardly see it clearly. The belly of the portly man underwent a noticeable change, a sensation of pain radiated from his abdomen, his mouth contorted as he shouted loudly, and his entire body was propelled outward.
Turning into a secluded alley, the black uncle and I were still blocked by those two individuals
I thought to myself, the imposing black uncle bravely captured both drivers with ease, and he seemed to be a "man who has come back to life," perhaps possessing some skills. I hurriedly turned around, leaned against a pillar, and cautiously watched the black Toyota. The black uncle noticed my unusual behavior, turned around to glance at the way I came, saw the black Toyota, and asked, "Are those two people trying to catch you?"
Isn't it quite strange? Clearly a person with a dark complexion is called "Uncle Bai"; that feeling is truly odd
The originally arrogant man suddenly extinguished his bravado, fearfully saying: "You are... you are the White Impermanence..."
The thin man with a sharp face said unhappily: "Don't look for trouble, you are not familiar with this child, are you?"
"Move aside," the chubby man shouted at the black uncle, reaching to pat his waist, seemingly threatening the black uncle
"Aren't there two people coming to deliver money? No need to rush," the black uncle laughed heartily.
I now understand that the black uncle has such a tragic experience
The fat man said: "Have you thought it through... is this head yours?"
"Impermanence is merely my title"
"Uncle Hei, let's wash up quickly and leave, they will call for help," I said with good intentions
I only saw a flash before the black uncle's fist struck the flabby belly
"You are truly a stubborn child," said Uncle Hei. "Er Mao and San Gou are actually in the business of selling mummies, and they even thought I was a mummy that jumped out of the grave, affixed with a Maoshan talisman, bound with ropes, and to be transported to Guangzhou to be sold to Old Snake"
"Don't be so stingy, let me touch you." The big black uncle nudged me with his elbow
"You little brat, you are quite proud of yourself," the black uncle retracted his hand and stood up.
I quickly stuck out my tongue, hoping to wash up and leave as soon as possible. This burly man clearly looked like trouble and might call for help. In my mind, even a coward would call for assistance, and Zhe Bingrui was one of them. Just thinking about Zhe Bingrui made me furious, and I clenched my fists tightly
Suddenly, he shouted loudly, and two green insects crawled out from the bodies of the two individuals. The black uncle stepped forward and crushed the insects with his foot
I almost thought you were dead I said I remembered Uncle Hei catching a black bug and curiously asked Did that black bug run away or did you catch it
Indeed, the burly man called a few people over. However, everything was easily resolved by the black uncle, and soon the bathhouse was filled with teeth. The black uncle shouted, "Kid, finish your wash and leave."
The thin man scolded: "Do you still want to live? Look at your attire... You are from the Xuanmen... You dare to interfere with our Heisha's affairs... I see your methods, you must not know our power... This child is not someone you can protect..."
I sense a menacing aura emanating from him, a strange and eerie killing intent that I have also experienced in my master.
"Little brat, my surname is not Hei, it is Bai. You should not call me Uncle Hei, you should call me Uncle Bai instead," Uncle Hei said.
The black uncle walked quickly, searched for a long time, and finally found the bathhouse
"What the hell, who is it?" A man with a body full of excess flesh expressed his dissatisfaction with the strange smell that suddenly wafted in.
The black uncle did not wait for the two to speak again, but instead made a few cracking sounds, breaking the bones in their hands. The two were in excruciating pain, and the black uncle unceremoniously searched their pockets and took out their money.
The black uncle retreated like a deity, looking at me with a hint of helplessness: "This is really disappointing; I thought it would be a tough challenge."
I proudly said in my heart, of course, I have been accustomed to seeing centipedes, scorpions, and cobras since I was young, so what is there to fear from a small bug
The big black man did not wait for the fat man to draw his gun; he moved swiftly, kicking the fat man's gun away. His hands struck out like venomous snakes, gripping the necks of both the fat man and the thin man, and forcefully pressing them against a gray wall.
No one has dared to speak to me like this, Bai Yueming." Uncle Hei was completely enraged
"He is my savior, can I just ignore him?" said the displeased black uncle
The big black uncle arrived, extended his left hand, and said: "I caught you, look."
You can still track with the green fly, truly not simple. Today I will spare your lives, go back and tell your boss that this child is under my protection...
"What do you call me?" The black uncle found the strange title amusing and laughed heartily, completely unconcerned about the impending danger
I couldn't help but reach out to touch the protruding bug, but before I could get close, the black uncle startled me: "Kid, don't touch it randomly. If it jumps out and bites you, you won't be feeling good."
Is that so? No wonder then. The fat man lifted his clothes and took out a black handgun
The black uncle chuckled and said, "Are you telling me that you are carrying a gun on you?"
Upon exiting the bathhouse, the black uncle whispered, "Hurry up, the man in black is following us"
The bones of both individuals have already been broken, yet their feet remain intact. They struggle to stand up from the ground and run desperately, as if this dark uncle is truly the White Impermanence, capable of seizing souls. If they slow down even a little, they will be summoned to meet King Yan.
"You please." The big black uncle was not polite at all, insisting that a ten-year-old child treat him.
"Black Uncle?" In a moment of impatience, I shouted out my thoughts, and quickly corrected myself
The hand was resting on the window of a black Toyota car. It was indeed the two men in black, one fat and one thin, who were sitting in the car and had unexpectedly caught up.
"Alright, I will treat you to noodles." I suddenly changed my tone
The old black man saw me deep in thought and said, "Kid, are you curious? Do you want to learn?"
I nodded and said, "Yes."
"However, you are so dark, why should I call you 'White Uncle'?" I said earnestly
A large man and a small man entered the bathhouse. I was reeking all over and had long wanted to take a shower. The smell of the big black uncle was similar to mine, and as soon as we walked in, the people in the bathhouse immediately dispersed. The two of us jumped into the bath, and the originally clear water became murky.
The black uncle said: "Ordinary children are scared to death at the sight of bugs, yet you, on the contrary, are not afraid at all. How strange indeed."
I was filled with curiosity and said: "I don't want to imagine, the bugs have already burrowed into the palms of my hands, that must be so painful"
The black uncle chuckled, saying, "It's fine, let's first find a bathhouse to wash up, and then we can go eat. If they come looking for us, I'll show them a thing or two." The black uncle stepped forward and grabbed me. I pulled my backpack aside and noticed that the square jar was silent, thinking to myself that the black uncle was not a bad person
The black uncle finished speaking and stared at me with wide eyes. As I looked into the black uncle's eyes, I unexpectedly discovered something incredible. The black uncle's eyes actually emitted a blue glow. They were a pair of blue irises. It was truly astonishing
I quickly withdrew my hand, turned my head away, and no longer paid attention to the black uncle. How infuriating, he actually scared me
The black uncle noticed that I was a bit scared and casually said, "It's fine, you continue washing." The black uncle stood up, twisted his neck, and shouted, "Hey, over here." The hefty man with a large gold chain hanging around his neck glanced at the black uncle and cursed, "What a foul smell of pig urine."
At the same time, I felt a sudden jolt in my heart; it turned out that the black uncle's surname was indeed Bai
After a while, unable to withstand the curiosity in my heart, I turned around and touched the protruding little bug, feeling its warmth. Unfortunately, separated by a layer of skin, I could not see clearly what was inside.
With a splash, it fell into the pool, struggling twice but failing to rise again
But I said, "Is that so? Perhaps I am just bolder than others"
The black uncle sighed: "Well, actually I am not black at all. It was just that when I was catching a certain poisonous insect in the mountains, I got bitten by it and then became so black... What's even more detestable is that after the insect bit me, my whole body became stiff, turning into a black corpse... Even worse luck was that I encountered some three cats and two dogs..."
Because I saw a hand again, and on that hand, there was a tattoo of a hungry tiger
I said: "Alright, I only have 10 yuan left"
I stared for a moment and then noticed that there seemed to be something crawling on the palm of the black uncle's hand. The insect was about the same size as an ordinary caterpillar, moving back and forth, circling around the center of his palm
I truly cannot understand how a bug can move around in the palm of one's hand. If it were a highly venomous insect, why is this black uncle still alive and well
If the master were to ask me, I would certainly nod in agreement
"What is your name, kid?" the black uncle turned to me and asked, his pair of blue eyes filled with strength, as if they were trying to see right through me
