Chapter 26

After I prayed for a while, I didnt go home. It was now almost three o` clock in the morning, so I just opened the tattoo couch and lay on it.

The next day, I planned to advertise my Yin and Yang Tattoos through WeChat and the QQ group of old customer to check whether I could find customers that could trust me.

I overslept till the next midday since I felt so tired these days.

At noon, someone was knocking on the door.

Ponponpon, ponponpon.

I took out the phone and checked the time with squinting eyesit was 12:10 PM.

Then, I responded and shouted subconsciously: Whos that?

Its me, Brother Niu. It was Niu Xiaoer outside.

I felt a little strange. He would have called me if he needed me, so why would he come knocking on the door now?

I checked my phone. Oh my god, seven missed calls, all from Niu Xiaoer.

Why didnt I pick up the phone when it rang so many times?

Then I remembered. It seemed I had a nightmare, where someone was going to skin me alive.

But I never had the nightmare before, since I always had a good sleep.

Maybemaybe?

It made me think of the Yin and Yang Tattoo.

Before my master died, he had told me I would provoke something terrible if I earned money through Yin and Yang Tattoos.

I didnt care about it at all, but maybe nowthat thing has already disturbed me? It also caused me not to be woken up by the seven calls?

Damn. Forget it.I shook my head and got up. I went to the door and opened it.

As soon as I opened the door, Niu Xiaoer burst in.

The moment he saw me, he got so excitedhe hugged me and said: Shui, you really gave me a great help this timeI have always had bad luck, but damn, since I got those two fish tattoos yesterday, I was just unstoppable. Do you know how much I earned in one night when I took ten thousand Yuan there?

How much? I asked him.

Niu Xiaoer took out his left and right forefingers and crossed them together, he said proudly: One hundred thousand. I earned one hundred thousand Yuan in one evening. I have never won so much since I started gambling.

Hearing what he said, I felt relieved. The Yin and Yang fish really worked.

Since the Yin and Yang fish worked, I didnt worry about Mr. Zhang coming to me for trouble if he lost money.

Then I laughed: Very good, Brother Niu. I suggest you stop gambling nowJust go and use this money to open a shop. Pave the road and live a quiet life for your good future.

Pave the road? Damn it. I now know that this Yin and Yang fish is so effective, I earn so quickly and happily, its much better than anything else that Ive done. Then he stuck out two fingers and said: I can feel tonight I will win two million. I had ten thousand Yuan last night, which became ten times the amount today, and I want to change this one hundred thousand into two million. It might be so if I try my best.

Damn, what wishful thinking by Niu Xiaoer.

I had nothing to say. A person like Niu Xiaoer with this addiction would want to gamble whether he won or lost. He would surely die from this one day.

Come on, Shui, I just came to bring you this good newsI will come back tomorrow to talk about thisYour tattoo really works. Then Niu Xiaoer put one cup of milk tea on my table: Come on, come on, this is milk tea especially for you, as a sign of my appreciation.

Then he turned back and went away.

Watching him going away, I just wanted to say damn!

Damn! I just gave him the Yin and Yang Tattoo and asked for no money;now he turned the money from ten thousand Yuan to one hundred thousand Yuan, which meant he should give me some as appreciation. I didnt just want to get the money, but in order to show his compliments, I would feel happy even if he gave me one or two thousand Yuan.

But the result wasyou gave me a cup of tea with milk?

I felt a little painful.

But what was more painfulhe came again at half past six in the evening.

I was doing a tattoo for a customer when he came.

Niu Xiaoer came with an angry face and spoke to me: Shui, leave this tattoo. I came to you for some business.

Whats that? I am making the outline of the tattoo for my customer. Theres about a tenth left, let me finish it first.

But Niu Xiaoer took the tattoo needle from my hand without any explanation, and kicked my guest: Get out of here!

I got very angry, it was not easy for me to do the tattoo for my customer, and Niu Xiaoer was destroying and smashing my business.

I said sorry to my customer.

Seeing Niu Xiaoer like a devil, especially his two missing fingers, that customer got frightened. He said that he would come tomorrow to finish the rest and he was going now.

Actually, I knew this guest; he was a college student in the city.

The college had a good reputation and they didnt want to make trouble. If it were Mr. Zhang, he would have beaten Niu Xiaoer half to death just because of that kick.

I spoke to my customer and told him to calm down.

After the customer left, I pushed Niu Xiaoer ruthlessly: What do you think you are doing here? Its not easy to earn money with these tattoos. Its not easy to get this returning customer, but now you sent him away. Are you crazy?

Niu Xiaoer was staring at me and asked: DamnHow cheeky you areWhats with the damn Yin and Yang fish tattoo?

I didnt understand what he said.

Niu Xiaoer said he went there again in the afternoon.

I asked him whether he lost all of what he had won last night.

If it was so, I could bear it.

Buthis answer was ridiculous.

He told me: I went there this afternoon and gambled till nowI took the one hundred thousand Yuan there, but I couldnt earn any more when it was more than two hundred thousand, or else, I would lose, lose, lose! At three in the afternoon, it was almost two hundred thousand Yuan, but now it is still about one hundred and ninety nine thousandWhy?

You ask me why? But you got the damn winnings, didnt you? I pointed at my nose and awaited his response.

It would be OK if you lost money, and I would admit it, but now you won and you still disturbed meAre you ok?

Then Niu Xiaoer spoke loudly, saying that he earned one hundred thousand Yuan last night, and today it was still sowhich meanthe could only win one hundred thousand Yuan per day. At most, it was one hundred thousand Yuan.

I asked why he wasnt satisfied with one hundred thousand Yuan per day. He could earn more than thirty million per year.

One hundred thousand Yuan per day, and more than thirty million a year;it issuch a good thing but you still have complaintsare you a fool?

I would be so happy if it were me, but I never earn money that is against my conscience.

But Niu Xiaoer didnt think so.

What he thought was that he wanted to become rich quickly. Winning one hundred thousand today and the other day was not so exciting for himHow long would it take until he became a billionaire at that rate?

I hated him so much; this guy was He still disturbed me even when he won.

I raised my hand and told him, Do not mention thisYou have always lost money on gambling, but now you won and it was all thanks to that Yin and Yang Tattoo, and you still want to make trouble. You arent a reasonable person.

Niu Xiaoer just lay on my tattoo couch, rolling while screaming: You have to finish it today. Now I knowyour in and Yang Tattoo is very strong. You just come and update it, or else, I will stay here.

I was just at a loss as to whether to laugh or cry.

I was a little excited when I got the message from Niu Xiaoer yesterday, but now Excitement? Never! I just wanted to kick this asshole away right then.

Then I thought about the ghost hands catching the money from the Yin Tattoo part of Yin and Yang Tattoos.

Actually, the ghost hands catching the money trick was much better for making money, with a better effect, but after thinking for a long while, I didnt tell him about it.

Because I just thought that this ghost hands catching the money tattoo was a little scary, I would haveto feel sorry about it for a long time if something were to happento him after he got this Yin Tattoo just so I could deal with him.

In any case, we had a deep friendship before.

I shook my head and said to Niu Xiaoer: Sorry, I dont have a Yin and Yang Tattoo with better effects for winning money than the Yin and Yang fish.

No? Well, Ill just have to stay here and wait.Niu Xiaoer stayed on the couch and laughed.

Its up to you; I really have no idea. I didnt know what to do with him, so Ijust let him act shamelessly as he liked.

Unfortunately, he was still lying on the tattoo couch and fell asleep.

I got very irritated.

I wanted to pack up and go home, but before I did, I got a sudden call from Liu the Sixth.

I shot a look at Niu Xiaoer, sleeping on the couch, then went to the corridor to answer the phone.

I talked with Liu the Sixth on the phone. I got very annoyed and complained to him about Niu Xiaoer.

Liu the Sixth sneered: You have to give him a Yin Tattoo, since it could earn so much more money through gambling.

Hearing this, I felt a little curious and asked: Is it true that a Yin Tattoo is much better than the Yin and Yang fish?

Then Liu the Sixth showed me some extended knowledge about Yin Tattoos, saying that the Yin Tattoo used a fierce Yin soul, and it must be better with this terrible soul, right?

Just when Liu the Sixth was explaining this, I noticed that Niu Xiaoer, who was sleeping, hadhid himself in the corner and listened in on my phone call without my notice. Then he sneered: Shui, you were hardly a friend in need. I knew you have better Yin and Yang Tattoo to earn more money but you never admitted it.
