Chapter 25: New Clues

After a two-week break, I returned to Chuanxiangguan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lao Tie saw me from afar, ran over and punched me in the shoulder, aimed at me three ways, and said, "Sick?" "My face is dark, and I don't know what kind of sick leave Yuan Qing asked me for, but don't make a mess of it. I said, "I'll go back and change my clothes." ”

In the attic I took off my clothes and looked left and right in the mirror, except for some scars, nothing else, besides, the scar was a man's medal, I clenched my fists, bulged my muscles, and for a moment I had to change into the waiter's clothes and come down again.

After talking about what happened last time, the business of the store gradually improved again.

After the lunch rush, everyone rested. Xiao Lu looked nervous and lewdly moved towards me, and then asked me quietly: "That, the ninth day of the first month." Does this cut baopi hurt? Is it embarrassing to have a female nurse shear you? ”

I was not happy to hear this, and said, "How do I know! I haven't cut it. ”

Xiao Lu said in a low voice with an expression of understanding on his face: "Chu Jiu, don't be embarrassed, I understand, I won't go out and talk nonsense." Besides, it's not a big deal. I'm just curious, come, tell me how this thing came about, to be specific. ”

My face darkened, and I scolded, "Who is this TM spreading nonsense!" ”

Xiao Lu sighed twice and said, "It's still a dead duck with a hard mouth!" Last time Lin Jie came to ask you for leave, I saw all the medical records I brought, and I pretended to be! If you don't believe me, ask Lao Tie. ”

Can't this old lady take a leave of absence, she has to do something. I scolded in my heart, I don't know how to argue at all, God, return my innocence!

Seeing that I was speechless, Xiao Lu thought that he had acquiesced, and urged me: "Hurry up, hurry up, come, tell me what this matter is?" ”

I glanced at his lower body, made a sudden realization, and said, "Why are you asking so carefully!" Hey, isn't it? ”

Xiao Lu walked away in a panic as if he had been bitten by a rabbit, and said as he walked: "I'm just curious, Chu Jiu, you can't talk nonsense!" I've got something to do. ”

Towards the end of the evening, the restaurant suddenly closed. I was wondering when Lao Tie came over to me and said, "Chu Jiu, change your clothes, wait for me at the door, let's pick up someone." ”

Standing in front of the store, I secretly guessed who it would be?

Suddenly, a car drove over, and as soon as the door opened, Lao Tie stuck out his head and shouted, "Junior high school, get in the car." ”

"Okay, Brother Tie! I don't see it. Sitting in the car, I looked at the car carefully, and there was a sense of nobility in the simplicity, and I was stunned when I saw it.

"This is not my car, this is my eldest brother's previous car, and then my eldest brother left, and my sister-in-law didn't want to drive, so she left me here. If I hadn't come to pick up the old man this time, I wouldn't have opened it. ”

I secretly said in my heart, Old Qi, it must be the person we are going to pick up this time, I don't know what kind of character it is.

Lao Tie stopped the train at the entrance of the station, walked quickly to the two people, I followed behind, and after a rough look, a middle-aged beautiful woman with a beautiful temperament supported an old man, and her spirit was very strong. Lao Tie first shouted to the old man: "Qi Lao! The old man nodded. Lao Tiecai called out to the middle-aged woman sister-in-law. I heard it in my ears, presumably this old man is Qi Lao, and this middle-aged woman is the big boss of our Sichuan Xiangguan.

I stepped forward and shouted to the old boss Qi, and then helped the old man get into the car.

Lao Tie asked, "Sister-in-law, where are you going?" ”

The middle-aged woman thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the villa by Lake X." ”

Qi Lao was old and impatient with tiredness, so he rested after eating, leaving me, Lao Tie and the middle-aged beauty still sitting in the living room.

The middle-aged woman asked, "Lao Tie, is this the person you found to accompany Qi Lao?" ”

Lao Tie said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, this kid Chu Jiu is clever and diligent and can endure hardships, this time Qi Lao is probably the last time to come to H City, so let Chu Jiu take him to run more." ”

The middle-aged woman looked at me kindly and said, "You are the ninth day of the first month?" ”

I nodded and replied, "Yes, boss." ”

The middle-aged woman said, "Don't call me boss, my surname is Xue, you can call me Aunt Xue." ”

Aunt Xue asked some other questions, such as what is the situation at home, why don't you go to school, etc., I was embarrassed to say that I dropped out of ZJ University, so I made up a few random sentences.

On the way back, I asked Lao Tie: "Brother Tie, what is the origin of this Qi Lao?" Lao Tie looked at me with a stunned face and said, "You don't even know him?" ”

I wondered, "Should I know each other?" ”

Lao Tie saw that my expression didn't seem to be fake, so he explained to me: "Hehe, Qi Lao is a royal nobleman, and he will kowtow when he sees it in the past." Qi Lao is the ninth grandson of Yongzhengye, and he is also a famous contemporary painter, calligrapher, etc., anyway, he is a lot of names. ”

"Ahh It's him! "At this time, it suddenly dawned on me that it was this Qi Lao. Speaking of this Qi Lao, he still has a little relationship with me, my master has had several origins with him, but he can't have anything to do with me, so he won't mention it.

Over the next few days, I led the old man to visit all the places in H City. This old man is also a person with extraordinary mental perseverance, he goes out to see during the day, and when he comes back at night, he writes and paints, and he can't tell that he is in his eighties. But I learned a lot from the side. For example, calligraphy, if no one instructs you, if you practice it yourself, you will be a calligrapher at most. Many traditional things in China are inherited.

On this day, the old man suddenly said to me: "On the ninth day of the first month, I want to go and see an old man." ”

I said, "I wonder where your old man is?" ”

The old man hesitated for a moment and said, "He lives not far from ZJ University, I know where it is." ”

I thought to myself that ZJ University is not too familiar, nodded, patted my chest and said: "Hehe, Qi Lao, I dare not say anything else, I am very familiar with the surroundings of ZJ University, I will take you there." ”

After turning around, Qi Lao asked me to stop, and then stroked the stones by the wall, full of nostalgia, and muttered: "It's here, it's here!" I'm back again. Then a man stumbled up against the wall, and after a few turns there was no one in sight, and I hurried to follow.

Suddenly, an open courtyard appeared in front of me, and Qi Lao was standing next to it. The pines and cypresses in the courtyard are evergreen, and the green roses are still there, but the walls are broken and dilapidated. As soon as I saw this, my nose was sour, and my tears were falling straight down, and in my blurred vision, I seemed to see the master hand-in-hand to change the shelves for me, and watched with a smile and a smile as we snatched all the meat from the plate・・・・・・

Yes, this is a place that I am all too familiar with, but it is also a place that I never dreamed of. Since I returned to H City, I didn't dare to think about this place, and I tried to avoid coming here. It's just that the creation makes people, and you can't hide from what you should dodge.

Qi Lao was stunned for a while, and then he noticed my strange appearance, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

I burst into tears and said, "Master is gone!" "At that time, I was just a child, I was a child in school, I didn't know what was called joy and sorrow, and there was no place to vent the words in my heart, I didn't have a grandfather since I was a child, and Qi Lao just fulfilled all the fantasies of a child about his grandfather. Hearing this concerned question, it was as if I had found a place to rely on. Sometimes all one needs is a greeting of concern.

I told Qi Lao about Master's disappearance, and Qi Lao sighed and said, "Actually, your Master's family and my family are good friends, and I am not a few years older than him, so everyone is playing around together." I've been here for quite some time. It's a pity, it's a pity, I didn't see him in H City this time, I don't know how he is, and I don't know if I'll have a chance to see him again in the future. ”

As if comforting Qi Lao and comforting myself, I said, "Master is so capable, he must be fine." ”

Qi Lao nodded. While I took him around the courtyard, I talked about how the master was and how the senior sister was at that time. Suddenly I saw a flash of light in the grass, and I immediately looked around, saw that there was no movement, and walked towards the place where the light was. When I looked at the grass, it turned out to be two diamond-shaped darts.

I took a closer look and saw that it was clearly burned by fire. Qi Lao came over and asked me what was wrong, I was afraid that he would be worried, so I said that there was a few broken glass reflections in the grass. Qi Lao didn't ask anymore.

After sending Qi Lao back to the villa, I immediately went to my sister's house to find Grandpa Xu and handed him the diamond-shaped dart.

The old man pondered for a long time before he said slowly: "This diamond-shaped dart is not common in the martial arts, but it looks like it is used by Dongying ninjas." It's just that why did your master get involved with ninjas again? Well, let me put it here first, and I'll tell you when it's clear. ”
