Chapter 4: The Ground Serpent
There are many interesting places in the capital, and people who come here are happy to come out and have a look, but because there are too many attractions, Xia Zhihan has fallen into a difficult choice. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Yufeng, where do you think we should go?" Xia Zhihan shook Chen Yufeng's arm coquettishly and asked softly.
Chen Yufeng smiled slightly and said, "You can go anywhere, as long as you are accompanied by important people, it is the same wherever you go." ”
Indeed, no matter where you go, as long as you are accompanied by important people, it is the same. Xia Zhihan felt moved by Chen Yufeng's answer, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then let's go to those alleys in the capital." ”
Although the alleys in the capital are all gray walls and gray tiles, as long as you experience it with your heart, you will find that there are many hidden stories here. The hutongs of Beijing are not only the veins of the city and the roads of transportation, but also the places where ordinary people in Beijing live, and an important stage for the development and evolution of Beijing's history and culture. The changes of history, the passage of time, the style of the times, and the rich accumulation of culture all make this place like a history museum, and the flavor and human feelings are all in it.
Chen Yufeng bought a popsicle for Xia Zhihan and said: "I have heard of the good name of the Beijing Hutong for a long time, and it is really the case when I see it today, but it is a pity that I can't enjoy it here with Qinghan." ”
Xia Zhihan did not feel unhappy because Chen Yufeng mentioned Liu Qinghan, but said with a little regret: "Yes, Qinghan is now studying seriously in Shanghai, I really hope she can come." ”
Chen Yufeng chuckled lightly and said, "We don't have to be too sad, when it's time for the holidays, the three of us will have a good walk here!"
The mild sunlight passed through the dense leaves, forming little by little white marks on the ground, like white light falling from the sky, from which both warmth and heat flowed. When you reach out, you can grasp the touch that you can't put into words.
"Although there is still some haze on this day, I have to say that this sunshine is really warm!" Xia Zhihan touched the gentle sunshine and couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, there's a surprise in the fog. Chen Yufeng muttered.
The two of them held hands and wandered in this ancient alley, experiencing the charm of this place. But that's the way the world is, and on the other side of peace is always accompanied by disgusting phenomena.
Just as the two were about to turn into another alley, a black Cadillac sedan surged into the alley and stopped in front of a kiosk.
"Huh?"
Chen Yufeng noticed this car, how could he rush into this alley for no reason? Looking at this driving technique, it is estimated that the owner of the car is also a restless master.
Sure enough, three people stepped out of the Cadillac sedan, one was a fierce-looking young man, and the other two were probably his bodyguards.
"Hey, old man Liu, hurry up and get out of here! Damn, did you pay back the money you owed Lao Tzu last time?" the fierce young man yelled at the commissary.
As soon as the words fell, a slightly elderly man stumbled out of it, and looking at his slightly sunken eyes, he knew that the old man's mental state was not very good.
"It turned out to be Young Master Zhu, I'm really sorry, I don't know if you are here, you are not welcome, do you want to come in and have a cup of tea?" This old man Liu seemed to be afraid of the ruthless young man in front of him, and he spoke in honorifics, and he didn't dare to look at him more with his eyes.
This Young Master Zhu didn't seem to be a good-natured master, so he immediately became angry: "Damn, I said that you old man don't give Lao Tzu all these useless things, have you forgotten the money that your granddaughter borrowed from Lao Tzu last time she saw a doctor? Could it be that you want to go to the police station?"
Young Master Zhu's words made this old man Liu frightened, his granddaughter was seriously ill some time ago and urgently needed to go to the hospital for treatment, but the medical expenses were too high. He opened a commissary and couldn't make much money, so he turned to the mysterious Young Master Zhu in desperation.
Liu Laohan didn't know this Young Master Zhu, but listening to others, this Young Master Zhu seemed to be well-known in the local area, and he was a nouveau riche, but his reputation was not very good.
However, due to the urgent need for this money, Liu Laohan made a note to this Young Master Zhu and borrowed a large amount of money, and then his granddaughter's illness was cured. However, the note says that the date of repayment is three months, and even a month has not passed, and this Young Master Zhu has changed to ask for money!
Liu Laohan also knew what this Young Master Zhu was thinking about, and when he saw his granddaughter, he showed an unusual smile, and he also lent him the money very happily. Liu Laohan is not a fool, he naturally knows Young Master Zhu's intentions, if he is not forced to be helpless, he will not have the slightest relationship with this kind of person, so he has repeatedly delayed.
"Young Master Zhu, didn't that note say that the money would be repaid in three months? Please wait patiently for a while, when the time comes, I will definitely repay the money!" Liu Laohan pleaded.
However, this Young Master Zhu didn't buy it, he had his own abacus, and immediately sneered: "Hehe, there is no one who dares to give credit to Lao Tzu in the capital, Lao Tzu has lent you money is already a great favor, when will this be repaid is not what Lao Tzu said?"
is respected as the young master, and he also takes a bite of Lao Tzu, it seems that the quality of this Young Master Zhu is very unusual!
"This ......" Liu Laohan fell into a dilemma, looking at the lively expressions of the people around him, there was a shame of throwing this skin on the ground and trampling it!
"Grandpa!"
Just when Liu Laohan was embarrassed, suddenly a crisp voice sounded, and a girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old with a pure and lovely appearance walked out of the commissary, came to Liu Laohan's side, and asked with concern: "Grandpa, what's wrong? Why are so many people here?"
When he saw his granddaughter come out, Liu Laohan secretly screamed in his heart, and hurriedly protected the girl behind him. It's a pity that it's too late, as soon as this Young Master Zhu saw this girl, a lewd smile appeared on his face, and he said to Liu Laohan with an evil smile: "I said old man, your granddaughter is really getting more and more beautiful." Otherwise, as long as you let your granddaughter accompany Lao Tzu for a week, how about writing off the money you owe Lao Tzu?"
Robbing people's daughters?
Chen Yufeng was amazed by such a shameless person, he dared to do such a thing at the foot of this imperial city, it seems that this Young Master Zhu's backstage is not ordinary!
When Liu Laohan heard this, his face immediately changed, and he sternly refused: "Young Master Zhu, please don't laugh, my granddaughter is still in high school." Since Young Master Zhu wants money, then no problem, I'll sell this commissary to pay you back!"
It seems that this old man Liu still has backbone, but how does he know that a local snake like this will let him go?
Sure enough, Young Master Zhu sneered and said, "Sold this commissary?" Hehe, I'm sorry, you can't afford to sell this broken commissary, because you owe me more than just the hundreds of thousands, and now that the price has risen, plus interest, you owe Lao Tzu a full 300,000!"
300,000? This is blacker than usury!
Liu Laohan's color changed when he heard this, he has been dependent on his little granddaughter, her parents died very early, so she was raised by Liu Laohan. In this alley, Liu Laohan is a very poor one, although he lives a poor life, Liu Laohan still tries his best to provide for her granddaughter to go to school, hoping that in the future she can be admitted to a good university and change the status quo. But now that he has met this earth snake, he feels that the sky is about to fall!
Looking at Liu Laohan's slightly desperate expression, Young Master Zhu smiled disdainfully and gestured to the bodyguards beside him with his eyes. The two bodyguards understood, and they stepped forward to take the girl away.
"You...... What are you going to do? Help! Grandpa, help me!" the girl screamed when she saw that two bodyguards were about to force herself.
Liu Laohan was startled, frantically protected his granddaughter behind him, and said sharply: "Whoever dares to touch my granddaughter, I will fight with him!"
Young Master Zhu's face was cold, and he looked at the pedestrians who were about to take out their mobile phones to take pictures around him, and couldn't help but shout: "Whoever dares to take a picture will be killed!"
This roar immediately calmed down those pedestrians who wanted to take pictures, they thought that Young Master Zhu was not something they could afford to provoke, so they had to leave here stupidly.
"Hmph, stinky old man, if you dare to disobey, then good, go and call the police! But Lao Tzu tells you that the director of this police station is Lao Tzu's buddy!" Young Master Zhu said disdainfully.
Liu Laohan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly didn't know what to do, and at this time, the two bodyguards took this opportunity to forcibly pull his granddaughter into the car.
"Whoosh!"
Just when Liu Laohan and her granddaughter were helpless, a small pebble flew over with a "whoosh" and hit a bodyguard directly in the chest. The pebbles shattered, and the bodyguards flew out, shocking everyone!
"Who? who dares to disturb Lao Tzu's good deeds?" Seeing this, Young Master Zhu couldn't help but say angrily.
Chen Yufeng walked over slowly, he asked Xia Zhihan to watch from the side first, while he stepped forward.
"What a local snake, bold enough! Dare to rob the people's girls in broad daylight, not afraid of death?" Chen Yufeng walked over and sneered.
Young Master Zhu looked at Chen Yufeng's whole body, and felt that Chen Yufeng was not an ordinary person, so he asked in a low voice, "Who are you?
Chen Yufeng turned his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, but it's best for me to be uneven in my life, if you don't leave, don't blame me for being unkind." Of course, I will pay you back the money this old man owes you. Chen Yufeng's words made Liu Laohan and both of them show grateful expressions.
Although Young Master Zhu felt that Chen Yufeng was not an ordinary person, when he thought of his backstage, he sneered: "Don't be too arrogant, you kid, Lao Tzu is a member of the elite club, if you don't know how to lift, then just wait to lie on the street the next day!"
