Chapter 268: The Hustle
"Smack. ”
In the hotel room, Lian Ge, who was half-leaning and sitting on the chair, closed the "Elementary Technique" in his hand.
As soon as he raised his hand, the "Elementary Technique" disappeared from his hand and was put away again.
Turning his gaze, Lian Ge glanced at the mice on the table next to him who were fighting around its dinner, and looked out the window of the room.
After such a long time, "Primary Magic" and "Elementary Fu Seal" have been carefully read by Lian Ge, coupled with the perception and practice along the way, most of the content of the two books has been mastered, and only a few parts are still obscure and difficult to understand.
“...... Then use the state of enlightenment to grind, if not, ask an ancestor to come down and talk. ”
Looking out the window, Lian Ge smiled slightly.
Outside the window, it is evening at the moment, the sunset has just sunk into the horizon, and the sunset is still reflected in the sky.
In the distance, in the high-rise buildings, the lights of thousands of homes are lit up, replacing the light in the sky.
Downstairs of the hotel, from the crisscrossed streets, the traffic and people are surging, or going home, or going out, rushing from one place to another, just like the blood of the city, irrigating the vitality of the city, highlighting the prosperity of the city.
......
On the side, the mouse paused as he munched on food, and turned his head to look at Lian Ge
"Squeak...... Squeak squeak. ”
Hearing the sound, Lian Ge turned his gaze and looked at the mouse again,
"Do you think I'll eat it? I think you're pretty tasty. ”
Smiling, Lian Ge took the dinner that was set aside and ate it too.
The mouse smelled the sound and shrank to the side,
"Squeak...... Squeak squeak. ”
After screaming twice and looking at Lian Ge again, the guinea pig buried his head again and continued to fight around dinner.
Hearing the sound, Lian Ge glanced at the guinea pig, smiled, retracted his gaze, and then looked out the window,
While eating, Lian Ge quietly looked at the lights of thousands of homes outside the window.
......
"Buzz, buzz, buzz......"
The mobile phone vibrated and sounded, and after scanning his eyes, Lian Ge picked it up and connected the phone.
“...... Brother Lian, has Brother Lian had dinner? ”
After connecting the video call, Gu Xiaoying's voice sounded in his ears,
“...... See, although you're not here, but your wife still makes Dongpo meat and boiled fish for me, do you see it, hum, are you greedy?"
Gu Xiaoying snorted and said aloud,
“...... Speaking of which, on weekdays, your mother and I seem to have treated you badly. ”
Before Lian Ge could answer, on the other end of the phone, Gu's mother on the other side of the table said angrily,
"Xiaoge, don't worry, I will raise your daughter-in-law for you. ”
"Mom, I don't want to be chubby for nothing. ”
"Then you still eat. Gu's mother said angrily.
"Mom!" Gu Xiaoying shouted weakly,
"What a howl, hurry up and eat, if you don't eat, I'll take it. ”
"Oh......" Looking at the mouth-watering dishes on the table, Gu Xiaoying compromised, leaned her phone to the side, picked up the chopsticks, and ate with her head down,
“...... By the way, Lian Ge, are you greedy?" Gu Xiaoying asked again with chopsticks in his hand.
"It's gluttonous. Lian Ge looked at Gu Xiaoying on the other end of the phone, smiled, and said cooperatively.
When Gu Xiaoying heard this, she nodded with satisfaction, and then ate the food on the chopsticks into her mouth.
"In view of the fact that Gongzi Lian is so far away that he can't eat it, the slave family will help Gongzi taste it. ”
"That little shadow girl, how does it taste?" Lian Ge said with him,
"Since the sons of the Lian family have asked, the slave family will tell the truth...... The meat of this fillet is smooth and tender, full of fresh and fragrant, melts in the mouth, and is spicy without losing its original flavor...... Delicious. ”
Gu Xiaoying said seriously,
“...... It's a little rotten this time, wait for me to think about it again, and when you come back next time Xiaoge, I'll make it for you, it should be better. ”
Next to her, Gu's mother listened to Gu Xiaoying's words, and directly dismantled the stage and said.
“...... Mom!"
"What a howl, if you don't eat it, I'll take it. ”
"I eat ......"
......
On the other end of the phone, Gu Xiaoying's family was eating, and Lian Ge also put the mobile phone beside him, continued to hold dinner, and ate.
“...... Lian Ge, two days ago you said that you went to Jiangcheng, are you still there?"
Gu Xiaoying was eating, looked at her phone, and asked out loud,
"It's still there. Lian Ge smiled slightly and responded,
“...... Did anything happen to you in the past two days?"
"Sold a few paintings......"
After a pause with chopsticks, Lian Ge replied, followed closely, and while eating dinner, he briefly recounted.
......
“...... Lian Ge, if you were to paint me a picture, what would you paint?"
On the other end of the phone, Gu Xiaoying had put down her chopsticks, sat at the dining table, supported her chin, and asked.
"I think I should draw you a pillow. Day by day, I don't sit and I don't sit, and I don't stand ......"
On the side, Gu's mother, who was cleaning up the dining table, answered the sentence, and on the other side, Gu Hanguo, who was holding a teacup and drinking tea after dinner, couldn't help but smile when he heard it.
“...... Lian Ge!" Gu Xiaoying turned her head and looked at Lian Ge on the other end of the phone angrily,
"Your father-in-law and mother-in-law are bullying me!"
Hearing this, Lian Ge couldn't help but smile.
......
"Say, man, what do you want to draw for me?" After a while, Gu Xiaoying asked again pretending to be serious,
"Let's draw a Gu Xiaoying. Lian Ge smiled and responded.
"Okay...... It seems to be okay too. ”
......
On the other end of the phone, Gu Xiaoying's family finished eating one after another, and on the other end of the phone, Lian Ge also put down his chopsticks, and the mouse jumped on Lian Ge's shoulder again, squatting, standing on his forelimbs, turning his head, and looking out the window.
After talking for a while, the sky outside the window was completely dark, and when night fell, the lights of thousands of homes on the ground replaced the sunlight in the daytime, illuminating the city.
When the call ended, the room suddenly fell silent, and it seemed even quieter than before the call.
......
After a slight pause, Lian Ge put the phone back in his pocket and stood up,
Looking at this quiet room and the bustling city in the distance outside the window,
"Let's go, go out and have a look. ”
Whispering, Lian Ge moved his steps and stepped out of the hotel room.
......
Step out of the hotel, the silence is far behind, and one person and one mouse re-enter the hustle and bustle of the city.
Outside the hotel, on the street, pedestrians are either hurrying, walking along the street, walking slowly, in the cars that are slowly moving, or the family is chatting, or anxiously rushing to a certain place.
On the side of the street, the sound of cars passing by, the sound of words, the sound of footsteps, and the sound of the wind are like all kinds of pedestrians, mixed and noisy in the city.
"Click...... ......"
Just as one person and one rat were walking to the side of the street, a bus happened to stop in front of the roadside bus stop.
It seems that because of the driving line, only a few people stepped on the bus platform at the bus stop, and the bus still looked sparsely populated.
After a pause, Lian Ge looked at the bus in front of him, smiled slightly, moved his steps, and stepped into the car.
“...... Click...... Ugh. ”
Inside the bus, it was a little quiet, and after the people on the bus sat down, they were busy with their own things, or playing with their mobile phones, or fiddling with some things.
After paying for the bus, Lian Ge glanced at the bus, moved his steps again, and sat down in a random place.
......
Through the car window, Lian Ge looked at the pedestrians and buildings that kept passing outside the car.
Towering tall buildings in the distance, small shops hidden on the roadside nearby, young people squatting on the side of the road, playing with mobile phones waiting for cars, old people talking to each other, children walking and kicking stones on the side of the road......
A corner of this bustling city is gradually emerging more and more clearly in front of your eyes.
At this moment, the quiet bus became noisy again.
