Chapter 24

I was totally annoyed by Niu Xiaoer.

I just wanted to let him go quickly when I finished the Yin and Yang TattooI really didnt want to have any connection with him.

At the same time, since we were classmates, I just wanted to persuade him to give up gambling.

I was in a complex mood.

After about half an hour, Liu the Sixth came in.

When he came in, he gave me a look and looked at Niu Xiaoer who was sleeping on the tattoo bench, and then he called me out.

The moment I went out, Liu the Sixth said to me with a straight face: Shui, you said you were doing a favor. Well, it was for your friend there, right?

Yes, I replied.

Liu the Sixth said with a scornful look: Shui, you shouldnt help him; I know this guy well.

You know him? I was a little surprised.

Liu the Sixth said: I had a smallunder my name, and one night one year ago, I was there with my friends, and your brother was also there.

Oh, yes, he likes gambling. I said with a smile.

Liu the Sixth gave a brittle laugh: Only likes that? He wants nothing but gambling. At that timehe lost all of his moneyThenthis asshole knelt down to plead to the dealer, saying that he wanted to gamble on his fingers. Did you know what I did then? I thought that I just wanted to teach a lesson to such a person who didnt even know his mother when he was gambling. Well, he wanted to gamble on his fingers, right? Ok, let him go. Then I told my staff to speak to the dealerOne finger cost thirty thousand Yuan, and only for two fingers, no more than that. Then my staff cut two of his fingers in order to let him think about the things left to him rather than cutting all of his fingers, so that he wouldnt live a bad life.

I raised my eyebrow: Mr. Six, dont you think you were too cruel?

Cruel? Did you know what he said after we cut his two fingers? Liu the Sixth asked me.

I shook my head.

Liu the Sixth said: He saidhe could gamble on the fingers again, the rest eight fingers, it would be ok at twenty thousand per eachHe is not an ordinary gambler, he is addicted to it like its his life

Ah!

I just sighed.

Then Liu the Sixth continued: Well, forget it. You wanted to give him the Yin and Yang Tattoo to help him to earn money, right? But in our field of this Yin business, there are five things that we cant help with.

What are they? I had only just come in to this field and didnt know what the five things that we couldnt help with were.

Liu the Sixth said directly: Simple. The five things that we cant help with are defrauding, cheating, abducting, deceiving, and stealing. The ghost business, though it is scary, is still normal business, and we cant help these illegal elements.

So it is, but I have to help him. Then I told Liu the Sixth: Actuallyhe saved my life before, and then he threatened me to help him with this Yin and Yang Tattoo, so now I have to comply.

Liu the Sixth stared at my face. After a while he sniggered and said: you have such a heavy sense of righteousness Well, you can do it, but I have to tell you, it is not a good thing to help an asshole like that.

I dont know. Let me do it first, and Ill see what will happen, I said.

Liu the Sixth gave me the bamboo jar filled with the new soul: Go ahead as he wanted.

I took the jar and went into the tattoo studio. After I prepared the dye, I went out and woke up Niu Xiaoer.

Niu Xiaoer was having a sound sleep there. He glanced at me with squinting eyes when I woke him up, then he closed his eyes and asked me directly: So, Brother Shui, ready now?

Yes, I said.

Then Niu Xiaoer rolled over and got up, asking me: So when I get this tattoo, isit true that l would win in gambling?

Yes, but it might not be so good at the beginning. It will take a long time to have a better effect and change your life. I said to Niu Xiaoer.

Hearing this, Niu Xiaoer became very happy: Good, good, very good, just do it now.

I nodded, and told to Niu Xiaoer as a rule: You have to choose the pattern carefully since there are different meanings to the patterns. Once you are given the tattoo, it is hard to remove, so just consider it well beforehandSo Brother Niu, you need to consider it well; are you sure you want to have this Yin and Yang Tattoo?

Yes, yes, yes! Now Niu Xiaoer was just thinking about winning the money. He insisted I give him the tattoo, so I followed him.

I told Niu Xiaoer; There are both Yin and Yang tattoos inYin and Yang Tattoo, and the pattern for your tattoo is a Yin and Yang fish, which belongs to the Yang Tattoos. Yin and Yang fish could be used to collect money; it uses the method of twine, which means the yin fish on the left hand and the yang fish on the right hand. So are you sure you want to do it?

Just do it.Niu Xiaoer opened his two hands.

I had no choice and gave him the tattoo.

I wore the Wu Sa, and after the process of the ghost knowing its master, I began to draw the tattoo for him.

The yin fish on the left hand and the yang fish on the right hand, both on the wrist.

The pattern was not so big. After one hour, I finished it.

Then came the coloring.

It was easy to mix the new soul with the dye.

I poured out the dye onto the tattoo, and it colored by itself.

After the coloring, the Yin and Yang fish tattoo was finished.

Actually, if I had wanted to earn money, I wouldnt only include the slow-working Yang Tattoo, but also the fast-working Yin Tattoo.

And the similar Yin Tattoo could be called the ghost hands catch the money.

The Yin Tattoo had a good effect. Even though Miao Weiwei hadnt died due to the Yin Tattoo yet when I was tattooing Niu Xiaoer, I instinctively thought that it was too scary, so I was not willing to tell Niu Xiaoer about it.

After the tattooing, Niu Xiaoer bent over to put on his shoes and was going to leave the tattoo studio.

I asked him: Brother Niuwhat about going for supper together tonight?

No, no, I have to prove it, to check whether it is effective for gambling, Niu Xiaoer laughed.

Because the tattoo couch was so high, Niu Xiaoer had to bend over rather low so that he could put on his shoes.

At that moment, a stack of red one-hundred dollar bills slipped out from his collar band and dropped to the ground.

This stack of one-hundred dollar bills was worth ten thousand Yuan, sealed by abank note.

Obviously, it was not opened yet.

Niu Xiaoer picked up the ten thousand Yuan quickly and stuffed them back in his pocket. He smiled to me in embarrassment and then scurried out.

When he left, I kicked the tattoo couch: Damn you!

I treated Niu Xiaoer as my brother and gritted my teeth to treat him to French Cuisine. I also didnt ask him for any money for the tattoo, but when I asked him for two thousand Yuan for the new soul he said he didnt have money, so I didnt force him to pay.

But this man only gave me one hundred Yuan for food while he actually had ten thousand Yuan in his inside pocket.

Humans hearts change so easily. I looked at the crooked tattoo couch I kicked. I shook my head and straightened it.

Forget it, just pretend I never knew him before.

But was it true that Niu Xiaoer could earn money from gambling after he was given that Yin and Yang Tattoo?

I really had no idea.

Maybe he would turn to me again.

Watching Niu Xiaoers back as he left, I thought of the words Liu the Sixth had said: It is not a good thing to give a Yin and Yang Tattoo to such gambler.

I pushed back the tattoo couch and continued with my daily business.

That day there was no more business about Yin and Yang Tattoos, it was all about common tattoos.

I worked till seven or eight in the evening.

After I finished the last tattoo for the customer, I pulled up the roller shutter and was about to go home.

I met Mimi just as I went out of the floor.

Mimi waved to me: Hi, Brother Shui, Ive been waiting for you for so long and I didnt call you upstairs. Come on, today is Mr. Zhangs birthday, and I told him to invite you too. Lets have fun together.

Where is it? I asked Mimi.

Mimi replied: Happy Carols. Mr. Zhang has reserved a private room for us, and we have some sisters there too, so lets go.

No business tonight?

No, forget it. Mimi said: It is more important to join Mr. Zhangs party.

Mr. Zhang was Mimis boss, he was both a good and a bad person. He always chatted with me and I had to join for the sake of him, because I might need to rely on this great master in the future, once I had a good business with the Yin and Yang Tattoos.

Happy Carols was a relatively luxurious KTV in our city. I heard that there was aminimum consumption there, and a large private room would cost a minimum of thirty thousand Yuan for five hours.

I had just eaten French cuisine that afternoon, so I didnt feel so constrained when I came there. I just followed Mimi upstairs.

When we entered a private room on the third floor, Mimi opened the door, where some sexy women were getting close to Mr. Zhang and other friends of his to do a lap dance to the music.

Seeing me coming, Mr. Zhang waved to me: Shui, you are also here! Just come, dance now. You are joining my birthday party for my sakeJust make yourself at home.

I nodded quickly and replied: Thank you, Mr. Zhang.

Then Mr. Zhang pulled me out by himself.

He took me to a group of sexy women and laughed: Dance, dance no needed to say thanks to me, you are here, just feel free as you like. Later, I will give you a big gift.

Haha, I laughed and danced.

Actually I couldnt dance well, and just twisted there on the spot.

But there were sexy girls everywhere, they were wearing one-step skirts, package hip skirts and low-cut blouses, which might easily produce a physiological reaction inme since I had no related experience in this as a man.

The secretion of hormones and the loud music made me less reserved than usual, now I was just being crazy.

I didnt restrain myself, rubbing those soft hips and even rubbing again and again those chests on my face.

Anyway, I could describe it in one word-crisp.

Everyone was there rubbing and rubbing in high spirits, producing a higher and higher sense of sexual relations.

Just when I was getting a lap dance there, Mr. Zhangs friends came to him one after another: Oh, no, damn, l cant stand it any more, Mr. Zhang. Can I go and do it?

Go ahead, go, go. I have reserved all the rooms on this floor, so just choose an empty room and enjoy. Mr. Zhang was very generous.

I also wanted tobut I was embarrassed to say so.

Mr. Zhang seemed to realize my problem, then he came to me and said: You helped Mimi, so you can take her and enjoy.

Enjoyenjoy what?

Oh, come on, Shui, dont play dumb. Or else, I will kick your ass. Then he called Mimi: Mimi, just go and enjoy with your Brother Shui.
