Chapter 256: The Land of Bondage
Tang Xinling's brother left, and the big bag of money was easily carried away. Speaking of which, he doesn't look like a migrant worker at all, and it looks a little out of harmony.
Since he hadn't eaten yet, Xiao Yusheng looked at the menu and frowned slightly, the cheapest dishes on it were nearly a hundred. He picked up the bank card and looked at the back, where the PIN was his birthday. This was undoubtedly even more strange to him.
With the money in the card, they ordered something that was not very expensive to feed their stomachs.
After the meal, Xiao Yusheng wiped his mouth with a solemn expression.
"I ask you, is your brother of mixed race? The face is somewhat similar to that of an Irishman, somewhat oriental. The color of the hair is not jet-black and shiny, and the ends of the hair seem to be upturned, but they are actually curly-like curls. He is said to look like a Turk, but his delicate features are not like a Turk. What worries me the most is that he has a pair of vermilion pupils. I remember an ancient inherited human race that seemed to have white hair and red pupils......"
Tang Xinling shook her head, she was surprised that Xiao Yusheng could observe so carefully, but she didn't know so much about her brothers and sisters.
Xiao Yusheng knew that she couldn't answer, so he sighed and stopped talking about these topics. After sending her back to the hotel. He thought about it for a while and left the bank card in his hand......
Because of Fang Ningning's incident, Xiao Yusheng was forced to suspend school. The teacher did not tell his parents, which was also the instruction of the old teacher in the teaching office.
Moreover, the days of his suspension were also delicate. No more, no less, a total of three days, starting from the first day of New Year's Day.
Even if Xiao Yusheng is resting, he still can't leave himself idle at home, and the lies told by his father before must be fulfilled by him. So, in a rare fit for nothing, he walked out of the house and ran to the owl's office.
When the owl was busy, Xiao Yusheng appeared, and his physical and mental exhaustion was really hard to imagine that he had been sleeping a lot before.
He put down a few papers on the table, folded his hands and pleaded with Xiao Yusheng to help him solve these cases. He seems to have a busy time.
Xiao Yusheng didn't have anything to do, so he stayed here to help him deal with the case, and by the way, he could have a lot of connections with Sheriff Dai, and he would have a back door if he went crazy that day in the future.
He sat in the owl's chair, which was surprisingly comfortable and emitted a refreshing scent. His mood became calmer and calmer, and his mood did not fluctuate too much after reading the entire process of the case and the testimony. Using this chair to communicate with people is simply mental cheating.
The case is not very difficult to deal with, it is nothing more than some petty fights, which is much simpler than the punishment given by the owl before.
He had finished dealing with one that morning.
In the afternoon, he came to Old Nick's tavern, Old Nick seemed to be talking to someone, the imaginary body was dressed in snow-white, and the movement of holding the wine glass was quite elegant, and the first impression alone would produce an inexplicable favor.
"Ah! Here comes the little warrior. Old Nick waved at him.
The moment the white imaginary body turned around, Xiao Yusheng's sharp gaze made Xiao Yusheng tremble, and that gaze pierced him like a sword, as if it could penetrate his whole person.
He kept his composure and walked over, "This is ......"
"Let me introduce, this is the Lotus Knight who is one of the six great sword saints. ”
"Lianhua ....." Xiao Yusheng muttered the name, and he had the impression that the Mirror Rider on the Snow Mountain had told him about this person.
"Yes, he is known as the Lotus Knight and is the head of the six contemporary Sword Saints. Your Excellency is a warrior who defeats the strong with the wisdom of the weak?"
Xiao Yusheng was a little embarrassed when she heard her speak, so she covered it up at the moment. With a smile, he said, "It's me." ”
She covered her mouth and chuckled, "Your Excellency doesn't have to deliberately hide anything, I just want to see who can induce the Black Emperor to frustrate." ”
"The sharp gaze you gave me was too much to bear. Xiao Yusheng said.
"That's really offended. ”
Even with her electronicized voice, her slightly hoarse voice is charming. Not only that, but under the general answer of these words, Xiao Yusheng could actually hear the playfulness, maybe this sword master who was full of words was also an elf and eccentric master.
As they chatted, the Black Emperor pushed the door open, and he closed it and nodded at Old Nick. Old Nick turned and went into the room, and brought out a cup of tequila as the Black Emperor sat down.
"Black Emperor, Lianhua. It's been a long time since you've been here, and it's not easy to sit here today. Old Nick sighed to the two.
The Black Emperor opened the carapace of his face, revealing his mouth. There were still some cyan places on it that could be seen more or less, and Xiao Yusheng suspected that this was the mark left by the freshly shaved beard.
"Times have changed, and we are no longer as innocent as we were back then, sitting here laughing and drinking a cup while laughing with you. ”
On the side, the Lianhua knight lowered his head, sad for this.
"You guys, you still don't change this weird way of talking. Secondary 2 is secondary 2, and he is about to be eighteen and still looks like a child. ”
Old Nick looks like an old man teaching a child. Speaking of which, Old Nick is indeed old enough here.
The three of them chatted happily, and there was no room for Xiao Yusheng to interject. But it's okay to do this, Xiao Yusheng can enjoy the harmonious atmosphere here, and drink a little wine by himself.
After about an hour, the Lotus Knight had to leave. The Black Emperor watched Lianhua leave with reluctance, and he asked Old Nick, who was still wiping his wine glass.
"Don't you grieve for the loss of others?"
Old Nick smiled faintly, and the open-mindedness in his smile was something that the Black Emperor felt painful about.
"So what? I remember there was a saying in China that said..... 'What is the full moon lacking ......'......"
"People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny. Xiao Yusheng also noticed that the atmosphere had become heavier.
"That's right, why bother with this? The old doesn't go, the new doesn't come. If it weren't for your departure, maybe there wouldn't be a seat for the little warriors at this bar. Old Nick reassured.
The Black Emperor's hand clenching the wine glass kept shaking, shaking violently. He seemed to be weeping, and his soul was crying. He picked up the cup and poured the wine, choking on his throat.
He grinned and said hoarsely.
"What can I do? I can't rest assured of any of them. Snowflakes, satin, and phantom wind. They all climbed to this position and got farther and farther away. I tried desperately to keep it up, but Phantom Wind used his persistence to get his mother's sponsorship in reality, and now at the age of seventeen, he has become a big boss in Canada. Xuehua's family wants her to be engaged to someone, after all, she is an upper-class nobleman with a big status. Satin her ..... In order to leave that small place, I began to study day and night. Everybody's gone! It's the only place we have to bond, and as long as it's still there, I'll be able to remember them, and I'll be able to see them again. I.... I don't want to give up......"
The Black Emperor's heartfelt words, everyone in the tavern fell silent. Many people still try their best to climb up, but they don't expect that those who climb to the top will not see an unobstructed view from the top to the bottom, but should go back to the home.
To be continued......
