Demon Exchange

Chapter 1 What You Desire

Driving on a country road at night, it is already late at night, and it is difficult to see pedestrians or vehicles on the road...

Turn on the car CD and play some soothing music.

After working as an engineer for four years, it is time to take a break.

Thinking about the bar I just took over a few days ago, I suddenly felt a little bit of anticipation...

In addition to street lights, the roads in the countryside are surrounded by large fields.

Fingers tapping on the steering wheel according to the rhythm, feeling the wind blowing in from the car window, Ning Qiu felt drowsy.He frowned to try to cheer himself up. The street lights on both sides suddenly flickered on and off. Could the voltage of the solar street lights be unstable?he thought.

Recover from a brief mind-wandering!
Damn, someone!
He was surprised!
In the middle of the road more than ten meters ahead, there seems to be a figure standing, and the shadow of the street lamp just overlaps with it...

Ning Qiu subconsciously wanted to avoid it, and turned the steering wheel hard, the wheels made a screeching sound, and hit something, the car thumped, turned over, rushed towards the figure with great inertia, and slammed into the electric pole again!There was a bang, and he felt his eardrums explode, and then there was only buzzing...

The pungent smell is in the air...

He struggled to look up!
Black smoke billowed from the hood, accompanied by a faint flame...

When a car catches fire, it will explode. This logic seems to be a matter of course in the hearts of ordinary people...

gotta get out of here...

Both legs are irregularly twisted and broken!Enduring the severe pain, Ning Qiu pushed open the deformed car door, clasped his fingers tightly on the ground, dragged his body and slowly climbed out of the upturned car...

laugh……

It hurts!

Something is scratched!
Blood mixed with sweat flowed into the eyes, it was astringent and sour, before he could wipe it off, Ning Qiu's heart tightened!
A blood-stained face suddenly appeared in front of him, almost kissing his own face!

She was staring at herself with bloodshot eyes!

he?
Is it the black shadow in the middle of the road?
With the pain and the fear in his heart, Ning Qiu's breathing became more and more heavy, as if the air around him became thinner, his head was dizzy, and there was a trace of irresistible drowsiness...

That face looked at Ning Qiu for a long time, and slowly said: "It's only one step away from the final secret, they found me...it must be done."

Ning Qiu didn't understand what it meant, he only knew that his body was getting colder and colder.

Wanting to prop up his body, his hands touched a lump of soft stuff, it was intestines, bloody intestines!
I was horrified to find that there was a sharp piece of iron sticking out of the car door, and I dragged my body just now, across the lower abdomen, ripping him apart, the intestines dripped out from the wound, and a pool of blood had already accumulated on the ground...

Such a serious injury.

If someone finds out, the body is probably cold...

Ning Qiu felt that his eyelids were heavy, and sleepiness occupied his mind, so he had to close his eyes, waiting for the arrival of death...

That face was silent for a while, and said: "Make a deal, take over, and I'll help you survive..." Ning Qiu tried hard to open his heavy eyelids, like a drowning man grabbing a floating straw!
Have a chance to live!
Who would want to die!
A glimmer of hope, don't give up!

Blood kept pouring out of his throat, and he struggled to force out a word: "Okay..."

A look of relief flashed across that face: "Since you agree, then the deal is established, and everything is as you and I wish!" Ning Qiu's mind went blank, and his whole body trembled violently, as if being choked by an invisible hand. , as soon as the legs kicked, there was no movement...

Looking at Ning Qiu who was motionless.

The face slowly emerged from the body, and the black robe wrapped around him fluttered in the wind, making a sound like a crow flapping its wings.He gently placed a pitch-black copper coin in Ning Qiu's palm...

Let's go, I hope you go farther than me...

I don't know how long I fell asleep!
In the dream, Ning Qiu dreamed that he was sitting on a small boat.

He floated forward along a black river. Countless scrawny monsters were chained on both sides of the river. Their eyes were full of resentment towards Ning Qiu. They kept roaring and struggling, wanting to pounce on him and tear him apart, but the The chains imprisoned them, making them unable to take a single step.

The boat was parked on the edge of a pier.

He walked onto the pier and kept walking along the path paved with blue bricks until he saw a magnificent and antique building.There are two red lanterns hanging on the left and right of the gate, which are very strange, and there seems to be a voice in the dark urging him to open the gate.He didn't resist the voice, because he was also curious about what was hidden in the door, so he pushed it open with both hands, and in an instant, boundless darkness poured out of the door to wrap him up and bring him into the building...

The cold wind keeps pouring down the neck...

The empty nostrils were filled with the smell of burnt paste.

Ning Qiu slowly opened his eyes, the sky came into view, he sat up from the ground!
Beside him was the skeleton of a car that had been burnt as black as charcoal.

Many villagers stood around pointing at him, showing concern, but no one dared to come up to help him.

body aches...

Ning Qiu suddenly thought of something, lifted his clothes to check his abdomen!The place that should have been disembowelled was actually intact, without any scars!Even the severely fractured and deformed legs are no different from normal people at this moment...

what is the problem?

If it wasn't for the charred car, you'd think you were dreaming!
what is this?
He stared blankly at his hands, and found that there was an extra copper coin pattern on the right palm, as if tattooed on it!
What about the figure who was knocked down by him?
He thought of that face!
Searching around, but found nothing, the figure disappeared from the world, as if Ning Qiu was the only one involved in the car accident.When the ambulance arrived, his mind was muddled, and he was not in the mood to go to the hospital, so he simply refused to be checked on the grounds that he was fine.I stopped a car on the road and went directly to the casual bar that I took over.

The decoration of the bar is very good, which fits the word leisure.

It was originally run by a young couple. Because they had no experience in business and the site was wrongly selected, it is not known whether the guests can experience leisure, but they let the couple enjoy the leisure to the extreme.In the end, it was really impossible to continue driving, so I had to cut the meat and transfer it, and it happened to be taken over by Ning Qiu at a low price...

Ning Qiu has made a lot of money in the past few years as an engineer, but the work intensity is too high. All he wants is a place where he can relax. Whether the bar makes money is not that important.But who would have known that there was a car accident on the first day, and such weird things happened.

Sitting on the bar counter, he took a bottle of red wine from the wine rack and drank it slowly.

While observing the pattern of the copper coin in his palm, he poured wine on it and rubbed it non-stop. The copper coin neither faded nor melted, just like a birthmark born on it.Ning Qiu frowned, trying to recall what happened after the car accident. The black shadow seemed to make a deal with him, as if he would accept something for him, and as a reward, he would help him survive...

He gently caressed his abdomen, the pain of disembowelling was extremely real, it could not be an illusion!

Besides, if it is a hallucination, how did this exquisite copper coin pattern come about?

Damn it, what py deal did I do with Sombra last night?

How come you have no impression at all?
Ning Qiu slapped the bar counter, why did such a strange thing happen all the time!

The palm suddenly became hot, and ripples appeared around it like water lines!

His heart tightened!
Copper coins poured out of the boundless darkness, enveloping him. After a while, the darkness was still darkness, but his eyes gradually became able to see something. It was an empty room with a table and two chairs in the center.There was a piece of paper and a black brush on the table.And on that piece of paper, there are two words "contract"!
what contract?
I turned the paper over and over again, but I didn't see anything special. .
