Chapter 134: Freemasonry
It turns out that "Roller" has an extraordinary background.
His tuba is called Xiao Kunlun. Born on the eve of the "movement", just three years old, the "unprecedented" began.
His father was just an ordinary car conductor, because of the good ingredients, there was nothing to do, just because he was not used to seeing the chaotic world, he complained a few words. As a result, this is hated by the bad guys!
I don't know who stuffed the portrait of the leader into his shoes, and Lao Xiao was twisted to the Public Security Bureau according to the "Six Articles of Public Security".
That's bad luck and sin!
After three years in a row, Lao Xiao was angry and tired, and he lost confidence in life and died.
After Xiao Kunlun's father died, his mother, who had no formal job, had to rely on pasting matchboxes and picking up waste paper to support him.
In addition, the early ceremony at home was sold out. Since he was six or seven years old, he had to help his mother make ends meet because of hunger.
But later, his mother was also arrested for tearing up big-character posters to sell for money, and he ended up with the same fate as his father.
In this way, Xiao Kunlun became an orphan. Then in order to eat, he will inevitably choose to wander in society.
First, he followed the older children to learn to unload people's car bells, and later secretly twisted the handles of the doors and windows in the building as broken copper and iron for money. And then it developed to go to the construction site at night to steal building materials.
This goes back and forth, sneaking, scolding the street, fighting, smoking, drinking, and everything.
In the end, he became a hob-like "copper and iron little Buddha".
Just because people are small and smart, have thieves in their eyes, and run fast, they also get a nickname, "roller".
But these days are not so chic.
Not to mention hunger and satiety, he always has to be bullied by some street ruffians and scoundrels. It's hard to earn some money, and it's often snatched away unreasonably. If you really miss it, you will definitely be beaten, and if you don't get it right, you will have to go to the "study class" and squat for a few months.
Later, during a "big copy" season, "Roller" happened to meet the "big eye lamp" wandering on the street, and saw that he had nowhere to go to avoid the "big copy", so he kindly took them to the platform of the building where he lived to "brush the night".
As a result, it was this night of getting along that he became the apprentice of "Big Eye Lamp".
At that time, he was only eleven years old, and even if he later joined the "two-headed" gang with the "big eye lamp", he was still the youngest.
At the beginning, the "roller" was able to control the wind, and it was a "head share" every month, and it couldn't earn a few dollars.
And the "big-eyed lamp" took him with him, and even broke the rule in the thief's line that "no one under the age of twelve is allowed to go on the road, let alone enter the road".
This made the "two heads" feel that the "big-eyed lamp" was a bit stupid.
But "Big Eye Lamp" has always earned double shares on his own without regrets. has never treated the "roller" badly, allowing him to live a well-fed and clothed life.
Why is this so?
Speaking of which, I have to mention the father of the "big-eyed lamp".
Because of the life experiences of Hu Gang and Hu Qiang, they are very similar to "rollers" in some aspects.
In the capital on the eve of liberation, all the elderly people knew Hu Rongbin, the "King of Wuli", nicknamed "Yunli Fei".
(Black words, King Uri, "Wu" person, black also.) King Uri is a thief who excels in his profession. It refers to a one-legged thief who is good friends with his hometown parents and only goes out once or twice a year to do big business. )
He studied under the famous "black money" thief "drunkard Zhang San" in the capital, and learned a set of thief skills of jumping over the wall and jumping and tumbling. In terms of the level of household entry, it is actually not inferior to the well-known "Swallow Li San" and "Raccoon Cat" Duan Yunpeng in Beijing and Tianjin.
(Black words, black money refers to stealing at night, not working during the day)
Especially after he became an apprentice, he also accidentally rescued a "Gao Mai" from Jinmen from the hands of the Beiping Inspection Department, and learned a set of skillful "clean-up work".
Since then, he has been a well-known figure in the thief industry.
(In black words, high buying is a top master who buys a package and steals gold shops, silver shops, satin villages, and ginseng shops in broad daylight.) Because this kind of thief can usually unconsciously stretch his arm and enter and exit the sleeve at will, hiding the stolen goods in his arms, it also has the nickname of "three hands")
But for the people of the capital, when it comes to "flying in the clouds", they are neither afraid nor hateful.
Because "flying in the clouds" is uninvited, it is only aimed at foreigners living in high-rise buildings and government officials and wealthy families in spacious mansions.
He is a sworn enemy who gives the Beiping Detective Team and the Inspection Department of the Beiping Garrison Command a headache, but he can relieve the anger and happiness of the common people.
Of course, there will be a bad day.
In 1948, Hu Rongbin stole the house of a government official, was betrayed while selling the stolen goods, and was finally sentenced by the Three People's Party Court and imprisoned in the prison of the Beiping Garrison Headquarters.
Originally, the high-ranking official still wanted Hu Rongbin's life, but at this time, the People's Liberation Army soldiers came to the city.
So in a panic, the senior officials also put their minds on how to alienate their property and how to evacuate.
Later, the capital was peacefully liberated, and Hu Rongbin, who was "flying in the clouds", was released by the new government after education and labor reform. And the government also arranged a job for him, let him work as a plumber in the housing management office, and encouraged him to rely on his own hands and labor to eat.
This made Hu Rongbin feel a new atmosphere from all aspects.
Not to mention that the cadres of the labor camp are amiable and treat prisoners as human beings, which is by no means the same as the officials of the Three People's Party. Everyone has a share in the happiness of the new society, and even the common people outside are no longer angry and hungry.
People are no longer sad, there are projects everywhere to build the country, and the way of the world has really changed.
With such a life-saving grace and the touch of his heart, Hu Rongbin finally made up his mind that he would always be an honest person from now on and never reach out to steal again.
Soon, he was living a stable life. married a widow from the countryside of Shandong, formed his own small family, and gave birth to two sons.
Although the life passed tightly, it was true that he was cut off from the absurd life of the old days, living in kilns, and eating restaurants.
From his bones, he has become an ordinary worker who yearns for a new life and lives in poverty.
He even handed over a bag he had picked up to the police station.
Because there were 2,000 yuan of public money and many bills lost by the bank staff, he was also commended by the unit for this and won a grand prize.
But unfortunately, good days come and go quickly.
When the "movement" came, everyone had to pass the examination and define the composition, and a large number of leaders of the unit were unlucky again. Then Hu Rongbin's old bottom was also opened.
Since then, the perception of Hu Rongbin by the people around him has changed greatly, no one is willing to approach him anymore, and no one believes in him anymore.
If there was anything in the unit that could not be found in the past, it was all counted on Hu Rongbin's head. Everyone regarded him as a class enemy.
There are even people who say that the bag handed over by Hu Rongbin may have been stolen by himself, and he was afraid that the wind would be tight and the money would be hot, so he turned to the public.
So the unit began to criticize him every day, interrogate him, and ask him to confess his theft activities in recent years.
Of course, Hu Rongbin didn't admit it, and his home was searched several times.
But this is not the worst, because of his unbearable history, his two sons were bullied at will by the children next door.
His Shandong wife was also injured by those who broke into the house because she was protecting him. After that, he had no money for medical treatment, and he died at home within a few days.
So when Hu Rongbin was finally released and returned home, he not only lost his job, but also found that his wife was dead. The house is also a mess.
The first thing he caught his eye was two sons who had been beaten and bruised and swollen, eating rotten vegetable leaves and vegetable sticks from the vegetable station under the light.
When the eldest son snatched the remaining half bowl of vegetable paste from the younger son's hand and sent it to him, he couldn't hold back any longer.
Suddenly, there was a loud roar, and the ground shook, and the roof of the low house was shaken to ashes.
A gust of wind swayed, Hu Rongbin took a big stride, he ran to the courtyard, jumped up to the room a few times, and disappeared in an instant.
In the middle of the night, when Hu Rongbin returned to his residence, he kicked the door open.
didn't wait for the two sons to ask, "horn horn", two boxes of dim sum, a few cans, and a roast chicken on the dirty table.
"X!"
Hu Rongbin snorted wine and scolded viciously, and then he fell drunk on the bed like a landslide......
Since then, Hu Rongbin has been disheartened, and he has become a "flying in the clouds" again!
And not only did he steal it himself, but he also began to teach his two sons!
It's just that he never allowed his two sons to go out on the street to try their skills. Because he didn't want to let his sons take this road yet, but in case he didn't want to happen one day, his two children would be able to survive without starving.
But things tend to always go for the worst. His next plan became a reality. And the day came unexpectedly early.
Just two years later, when Hu Rongbin entered a resident's home in a ministry compound during the day, he happened to encounter an elderly man who was alone at home and was in critical condition with a heart attack.
Hu Rongbin, who had a clear conscience, couldn't bear to leave with his hands in his hands, so he gave the dying old man water and medicine to help the old man get out of danger.
I didn't want this busy work to delay time, and after the old man's state stabilized, he was about to leave, but when he opened the door, he bumped into the old man's daughter-in-law who was coming home from work.
The woman screamed, and the neighbors moved out in unison to block Hu Rongbin on the spot. After that, there was a search at the police station.
It stands to reason that Hu Rongbin is a master of thieves, and he understands the principle of taking stolen goods and punishing them.
That's why he used to steal only cash from his homes, and he only stole food when he went into stores. And he never kept it, and he didn't go to commit the crime again when the money ran out, and he didn't find much money in his home. This shouldn't have been too serious.
But what is even more unfortunate is that seven or eight plexiglass keys, from his son's house, were found, and this nature is different.
On the spot, the faces of several policemen changed, because there was only one key pendant, and there was no semicolon, all of which were souvenirs of the national civil aviation.
In the sixties and seventies, you had to check whether your level was enough to even book a soft sleeper on a train, and of course the plane was not something that ordinary people could sit on.
If there are one or two souvenirs, maybe it is to steal the home of a model worker, and the owner occasionally gets special permission to take the plane back, but seven or eight ......
In this way, "Flying in the Clouds" Hu Rongbin died on these little things he brought back as toys for his son due to a thought.
The public trial was held on the streets of the city. On a large liberation truck, there were more than a dozen prisoners with signs in them.
When the public judge read Hu Rongbin's charges, he said that he was a repeat offender who had been wandering around the family compounds of major ministries and commissions for a long time and had stolen the homes of many cadres. Due to the large amount of theft and the bad impact of the crime, the execution will be executed!
On that day, both Hu Gang and Hu Qiang went to the scene to see it, and their father actually raised his head and smiled at the last moment, and then was viciously pressed on the neck.
That night, the little brother and son cried at home. From the next day, the two went out on the street together.
Although they have only practiced the "clean hands" for half their lives, they have not yet had the ability to steal from the rich and official families like their fathers. But this is enough for them to go out of the pockets of ordinary people every day on the bus......
So to put it bluntly. In fact, the reason why the "big-eyed lamp" will have compassion for the "roller" is that it has brought this young burden with it since then. It is out of a kind of sympathy for the disease that "Roller" reminds him of what happened to himself and his younger brother.
And he has watched the "roller" grow up day by day over the years, and gradually has the same state of mind as his father back then.
On the one hand, I don't want the "roller" to starve and freeze, but on the other hand, I am also very helpless and regretful about letting the "roller" embark on this road.
