You didn't answer, after all, there are too many people in this world who look similar. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After thinking about it, he said to the old man again: "Master, according to your conditions, you should be treated like a hero after you retire from the army?" ”
"Yes, when I came back that year, the old man was indeed beautiful, but people can't fight time after all." The old man sighed lightly, but there was not the slightest complaint or annoyance on his face, his smile was still hearty, as if he had already seen through the past, "I'm not afraid of the doll's jokes, I was forced out of the house by three babies." Specifically, I won't talk about it, anyway, that's what people do. ”
The old man's ease made him seem to understand something, thought about it, and asked again: "Master, you came out of Jiaozhou's house, right?" ”
"yes."
"How did you get to Yuhang?"
"Oh, that's a long way to say." The old man took another breath and broke some peanuts to eat, "Didn't I say it, there are three babies in the family, and I couldn't figure it out when I split up, so I fought in front of me, and I really couldn't stand it, so I threw my wife to my two female babies and went south by myself." ”
"You walked down?"
"By the way, when I left, I didn't bring anything else stupid except for two clothes and ID cards, and I didn't have money to buy tickets, hahaha......"
Thinking of his past feats, the old man couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You...... How did you get down? ”
You are also shocked by the behavior of the old man, from Jiaozhou to Yuhang, there are more or less eight or nine hundred kilometers, and the average person has to walk for at least two weeks!
"If you can walk, just walk on your legs. It was spring, neither hot nor cold, and the weather was very nice. ”
"But you didn't have any money."
"Money? That thing doesn't need it! The old man seemed to have an instinctive aversion to money, and he shook his hand, "At that time, I could still get something for food, and I only needed food, not money, and those people believed me." Sometimes, some dolls will buy me some ice cream. ”
Walking for two weeks, asking for food all the way, hearing this, you didn't even have time to sigh, directly gave the old man a thumbs up, and praised: "Master, you are too good!" ”
"Hahaha......"
The old man's hearty laughter echoed in the bridge hole.
"Master, we have so many cities in China, why do you want to come to Yuhang?"
"Oh, I went to Jinling at the beginning, and I stayed there for five years, and I originally wanted to catch up with a few old guys who survived the battlefield, but I didn't know where they lived, I only knew their names, and no one knew after asking, and then I simply didn't bother to look for them. After that, I went to Gusu and stayed there for three years, and the East China Sea, where I also wandered for a few years. ”
As he spoke, the old man took out a pocket watch from his bosom that had stopped functioning, and its appearance looked smooth, which should have been caused by long-term rubbing of his palm.
"As for coming to Yuhang, the main reason is to see West Lake. When I was a child, I heard that Mr. Storyteller said that the south was as beautiful as a fairyland, and when I was in my seventies, I lay in bed for more than half a month because I took the wrong mouse medicine. At that time, I had just come back from the ghost gate, and the three babies in the family fought noisily in order to separate the family. I've seen through it once after I've died, so I'll take a walk in the south. ”
"However, you were already over seventy years old at that time, where would ordinary people go out so far away?"
The old man's smile still did not have the slightest impurity, and he smiled very clearly: "Doll, you don't understand. When a person comes back from a sneak through the ghost gate, he sees everything open. At that time, I wanted to take a look in the south, even if I died halfway, I was willing. This man's life, what others say doesn't count. ”
You nodded solemnly.
"Doll, you and I have a fate, I don't know how many more days I can live, this pocket watch I have always treasured, although it is broken, but it can also be left for you as a souvenir."
"This ......," you hesitate.
"Take it!"
The old man forcibly stuffs the pocket watch into your arms.
At this moment, for some reason, you feel your eyes hot, as if something is going to flow down.
You take the pocket watch and rub it lightly with your fingers, and soon you feel the scratch of the knife on the back of the pocket watch, which is quite deep.
Turn your pocket watch over and look at it, and all of a sudden, you're stunned, because someone has carved a few words on the north side of the pocket watch with a knife - just give this watch to your beloved company commander! Li Mancang, Xian Runze words.
"Company, company commander, oh no! That, too, too man. You suddenly felt a little stammered, and hurriedly looked up at the old man who was drinking and eating snacks by himself, and asked, "Master, are you going south just to find Li Mancang and Xian Runze?" ”
"Right! This pocket watch was snatched from a US officer by Li Mancang and Xian Runze, but I don't know where these two boys live, and I've been looking for it for more than 20 years, and I'm tired and too lazy to look for it. ”
"Bump!"
Without saying a word, you immediately fell to the ground on both knees and knelt heavily in front of the old man!
"Hey, baby, what are you doing here!?"
The old man hurriedly reached out to help you up.
"Master, please accept Li Mancang's unfilial grandson, Li Muyun worship!"
The old man's hand was halfway through and stopped, and soon his hand became trembling.
"You, you ......" The old man hurriedly helped you up, the two of them stood upright, he looked at you steadily, and then with a smile and tears in his eyes, he patted you on the shoulder heavily, "Good boy! Attaboy! I'll just say, why does your little doll look so much like that dog cub in Mancang! ”
"Master, you sit down first."
"Good, good." The old man seemed very excited, and poured two sips of liquor in succession, "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, I felt that I didn't have a few days to live, and I actually found Mancang's grandson, hahaha......"
You also wiped away the tears from the corners of your eyes and said to the old man, "Master, you have really suffered all these years." ”
"I don't feel bitter, I'm very comfortable living this day." The old man smiled and asked, "Hey, what about your grandfather's warehouse?" ”
You pause and say, "My grandfather has long since passed away. ”
The old man was silent for a moment, patted his head, and sighed, "I forgot!" Mancang that kid said that there is a curse in your family, men will not live to be twenty years old, and he just went back to get married, so he desperately won the military merit and returned to China. ”
"Hmm!" You nod heavily.
The old man looked straight at you and asked, "What about you?" ”
"I'm fine, the curse of our family, I've unlocked it."
"Really? That's great. ”
The old man patted you on the shoulder again: "Come, drink with the master!" ”
You hurriedly stopped the old man and said to him, "Master, wait a minute, I will have someone besides me at this time who wants to drink with you more." ”
"Who?"
You didn't say much, immediately took out your mobile phone and dialed Xian Qianling's number.
After the other party connected, you asked with a face: "Hey, crazy woman, is your grandfather's name Xian Runze?" ”
"Li Muyun! You've got itchy skin, aren't you!? If you call me a crazy woman again, believe it or not, I'll find someone to monitor your words and deeds 24 hours a day! ”
"Oh, don't talk nonsense, let me ask, is your grandfather's name Xian Runze?"
Xian Qianling was silent for a moment and said, "That's right, hey, how do you know my grandfather's name?" ”
