Chapter 214: Old Ghost

After more than ten hours of driving, it was completely dark.

At this moment, it is more than a thousand kilometers away from Tiandu, and the two of them have entered the Jiangnan area with a wrangler.

The wind and snow are blowing in the north, and the south is not much worse. Only the snow is not so big, so thick. After getting off the highway and finding a warm restaurant to eat, Luo Qian asked the proprietress the hostess, "How far is it from Mangshan Town?"

Fifteen kilometers past here, there's a sign there, just follow the sign. ”

asked for the address, Luo Qian took Xu Ruoqing out of the restaurant and embarked on the journey again.

"What are we going to Mangshan Town for?"

Of course, Xu Ruoqing didn't know Luo Qian's plan, Luo Qian sighed, "Go and find one person, just the two of us, it is impossible to find the Tianzhu Ghost Orchid." ”

"Does the Tianzhu ghost orchid grow in Tianzhu?"

"Not necessarily, like the African crucian carp, has it also entered our country?"

Xu Ruoqing still didn't understand, "Do you doubt that this poisonous weed is not extinct, but transplanted elsewhere?"

"I don't know now. Luo Qian didn't know the bottom in his heart, this answer must be found by the old ghost to have a result.

"Don't we still have four masters, why are we looking for people?"

"It's okay for them to fight, but what can they do if they find an antidote?"

Luo Qian saw that there was indeed a sign in front of him, Mangshan Town.

It is written next to it, the road is steep, drive carefully.

It seems that Mangshan Town is a closed town, and the road in and out of the town is actually a winding mountain road. Xu Ruoqing secretly said in her heart, as early as many years ago, no roads were built, how did they get in and out of this mountain?

The road was very steep, and coupled with the snow, even Luo Qian didn't dare to drive too fast.

If it's just one person, he can fly out in case of an accident. But Xu Ruoqing can't.

I have to take responsibility for her life.

Such a highway is generally not open to people who are not familiar with the terrain, but Luo Qian still drove over the cliff very calmly.

Xu Ruoqing was in the passenger cab, looking frightened, as the eldest lady of the Xu family, she had almost no chance to take this risk.

The car climbed half of the mountain, drove at this sea level for nearly half an hour, and then began to take the winding road down the mountain.

Xu Ruoqing asked, why don't you dig a tunnel?

The cost of the tunnel is high, and if the tunnel is built, I am afraid that this road will not be able to be built.

Luo Qian is also here for the first time, the way down the mountain is more difficult than the uphill, in addition to controlling the speed, but also to prevent the tires from slipping in rain and snow.

From this fork in the road to Mangshan Town, it took nearly two hours to walk.

In front is a small town, and the whole town develops in a prismatic shape along the road. Luo Qian drove the car to the town, and it was already past eleven o'clock at the moment.

"At this time, can you still find someone?"

Xu Ruoqing was a little worried.

"It's okay, this guy is a night owl. ”

"Where can I find him??"

"Casino!"

Luo Qian turned off the fire and parked the car on the side of the road, "Where there is a casino, there is his shadow." ”

After jumping out of the car, he asked Xu Ruoqing, "Do you want to go with me or stay in the car?" ”

"I'll go with you!"

This town is not large, with an estimated population of no more than 10,000, but there are many mahjong parlors.

At this time of the night, the sound of mahjong is everywhere. There are all kinds of people who play cards, men, women and children. Especially during the Chinese New Year, migrant workers have gone home one after another to join the mahjong army.

Many people earn money outside for a year, return home, and disperse on the mahjong table for a few days. After the Spring Festival, I went out to work again. Cycle after cycle, year after year, their lives are spent in such times.

Of course, Xu Ruoqing doesn't understand the life of this kind of person, she has never been in contact with people of this class. In her life, she comes into contact with high-ranking people.

So it was very surprising to see a scene in the town.

The old ghost is in a mahjong parlor, and he is not playing mahjong, but dominoes.

He was playing pai gow, and when Luo Qian and Xu Ruoqing entered, they immediately aroused the vigilance of many people. Some people thought it was a gambler, and they stood up and looked at the two of them.

Luo Qian explained, "Let's find someone, you continue, continue." ”

The business of the mahjong parlor was good, and people from the law enforcement department frequented it, and the owner had to take care of it. Especially at the end of the year, the mahjong parlor business is booming, and no one wants to have an accident at this juncture.

Hearing that the two of them were looking for someone, everyone will be suspicious.

There are also very fashionable girls in the town occasionally, and Xu Ruoqing's amazement made everyone blind. They looked at her in a daze, as if they had never seen a woman before.

Xu Ruoqing secretly regretted that she wouldn't have followed if she had known.

But now it's too late to go out, so I can only follow up. Pai Gow is a relatively large way to play, if playing mahjong is just a pastime, playing Pai Gow is completely the nature of gambling.

But the boss likes it, and the bigger the player bets, the more he rakes. Sometimes at the end of the day, the income is thousands.

For the economic level of the town, it is definitely a considerable income.

In the innermost room, with the electric oven on, a group of people gathered around, and someone shouted, "Floor bar, floor bar, floor barβ€”"

"Grass, he MD lost again. ”

Angry to push the card, "Come on, Lao Tzu is really not convinced, it is impossible to keep the luck like this." ”

"Old ghost, you eat big and lose small every time, are you a ghost?"

The old ghost laughed, "If you have the ability, you can try it? Playing cards is pure luck, do you really think you have any skills?"

"I'll press one side!" Luo Qian took out a stack of tickets, about 10,000 of them, and pressed them directly opposite the old ghost. Suddenly, there was an uninvited guest, and everyone looked at it together.

Seeing Luo Qian, the old ghost's face changed, and he pushed the cards, "Don't play!"

"Hey, why are you like this, how can you leave when you win?"

"Old ghost, old ghost, you can't go. ”

The old ghost said gloomily, "Don't bother! ”

In a word, immediately no one dared to bother him.

The old ghost glanced at Xu Ruoqing beside Luo Qian, and walked out without looking back.

The two of them followed out and stood in the cold wind, "It's a very leisurely life, old ghost." ”

Xu Ruoqing noticed that the old ghost looked like he was in his sixties, his hair was a little white, but his back was not hunched, his eyes were not dazzled, and he was very energetic. However, he looks a little thin, and his hands are like tree branches.

With Xu Ruoqing's experience, I can't see anything special about him, since Luo Qian came to him, there must be something extraordinary.

"What's the matter with me?"

Luo Qian didn't smoke, but handed him a cigarette, "If you don't have anything to do, you won't go to the Three Treasures Palace, since you have come from thousands of miles to find you, there must be a reason." ”

"I don't want to get involved in anything now, I just want to live a peaceful life. ”

The old ghost didn't take Luo Qian's cigarette and took out his dry tobacco pouch from his pocket. The wind is strong, and you can't light it. He turned his back on the wind, and finally lit the fire, and took a few puffs.

"I know, you've found a woman you like, and I've heard that she's good-looking, but I'd like to see it. ”

Speaking of women, Xu Ruoqing paid attention to Luo Qian's expression, and she didn't know what she was thinking at the time?

"Little rabbit, don't drag her into the water, she's just an ordinary village woman. ”

Luo Qian sighed, "It depends on your attitude, if you don't want her to know about your past, you have to do something for me." ”

"I'm no longer from Liuyun Palace, what do you want to do?"

The old ghost was anxious, "What your master and father agreed to back then, do you want to regret it?"

Luo Qian said unhurriedly, "Go back and think about it, I'll give you a night's time." I'll come back to you tomorrow morning. ”

After speaking, he said to Xu Ruoqing, "Let's go!"

He didn't pay attention to the old ghost anymore, and walked straight in the direction of parking.

Xu Ruoqing glanced at the old ghost and found that his expression was very complicated. I felt a little awe, and a little unconvinced.

Catching up with Luo Qian, Xu Ruoqing didn't speak, and the two came to the side of the wrangler.

"We'll be in town tonight, you wait here, I'll open two rooms. ”

Next to it was the hotel in the town, and Luo Qian took his documents to open a room. Xu Ruoqing sat in the car, looked at his back, and looked at the dark sky.

Tonight would be the first time she had spent the night in such a remote mountainous area with a man she didn't know too well.

The old ghost crouched down and finished a puff of cigarette and knocked the ashes on the stones by the roadside.

A person squatted for a while, and finally turned around and left in the opposite direction.

ps: It's Friday, let's do it again, five watches!

Brothers, can you put the flowers up, and don't let my efforts wither in anticipation.
