The book is picked up again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At half past five o'clock in the afternoon of the 29th, when Ito and others set off from Jiangjundun and arrived at the Longzhu Holiday Inn for accommodation procedures, about 40 kilometers southwest of here, Jiahe City, Wanqing Road, Bus Passenger Transport Center, a square-headed and square-headed No. 55 bus stirred up the dust, whirred, and took a big breath, and stopped at platform No. 3.

There were not many passengers left in the car, and they limped off the bus one after another, dragging their tired legs and feet, carrying their luggage. The last one was a tall and thin boy, with a white face, brown sandals, a crumpled gray-green T-shirt, black slacks and a dark blue bag, drooping his head, listless.

Yes, this boy is Yao.

32 hours ago, that is, at nine o'clock in the morning of the 28th, he was kicked out by the little security guard from the first design department of the extraordinary decoration company that had been volunteering for half a month, and he was filled with a belly of untimeliness, and secretly cursed "The east wind blows, the war drums are beating, Lao Tzu is unemployed, who is afraid of whom", stepped on the bus to Longhu Wharf, and started a strange and bizarre magic journey.

However, after only the first encounter with the supernatural, that is, 1,920 minutes and 115,200 seconds, he chose to flee.

Now, all the way to the terminal of No. 55 on Wanqing Road, coincidentally, his small rental house is nearby.

Wanqing Road is a century-old street, which used to be called Avenida da Road, and is lined with French plane trees.

These sycamores, witnessing the vicissitudes of Jiahe's years, green and white mottled, several people hugging, and after continuous pruning, those branches that should have been everywhere are stretched upwards with a brush, steel fork general, straight into the sky.

At this moment, the flowing clouds, dipped in bright red and bright yellow sunset, rolled up in the blue and indigo sky, through this boulevard, it was suddenly torn and crushed, turning into colorful flag-like leaves, hanging on the branches swaying in the wind, and disturbing bursts of cicadas, far and near, accompanied by the traffic and lights and shadows that flickered left and right.

In contrast to this poetic streetscape, the grizzled Yao, like a tired coolie after a busy day, hunched over and stepping on long shadows, turns a row of gray concrete walls, and turns into a narrow alley in the shade.

This narrow alley has a weird name, called "Screw Alley". According to the old people nearby, I don't know what year and month, the ancient city of Jiahe encountered a war, the city is full of corpses, white bones, this alley is also full of dead corpses, layer upon layer, stacked to the top of the wall, so the locals called it "Stacked Corpse Alley", and later falsely called it "Screw Alley". It's strange to say, even at noon, the alley is gloomy and can't shine a ray of sunshine; The street lamp in the alley is also very evil, always broken, even if it has just been repaired, it will inevitably burst at night.

Because of this very reason, most of the ancient houses in Screw Lane are empty, and few people care about them, so they can only be rented to two kinds of people at a very low price: one is unknowing, and the other is unbelievers.

At the end of the narrow alley, on the mossy brick wall, a black hole was built into the shikumen, and through a damp, dark intermittent road, Yafu's hut was built.

When I opened the door and entered, there was a strange smell, as if it was a rancid meal, pungent kerosene, mixed with the choking smell of smoke and musty, and I couldn't tell it clearly.

The fluorescent lamp overhead flicked several times, and like lightning, it finally lit up. The house is not big, about twenty or thirty square meters, and the so-called kitchen, dining room, living room, and bedroom are all mixed together, and there is no toilet or bathroom, and it is messy and messy, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a pigsty.

Dejected, Yao threw his dark blue backpack onto one of the broken tables, and collapsed on the bed on his left. A stack of books and clothes was piled up at the head of the bed, and a tripod was erected next to the bed, on which leaned against an unfinished painting, but nothing was visible. Colorful paint jars, glass bottles, and half-empty buckets of instant noodles were clustered on the floor, with paintbrushes, disposable chopsticks, and a large pot of cigarette butts.

There was a belly grunt, reminding him that it was time to eat, but he didn't mean to get up from head to toe.

The old-fashioned house, without a suspended ceiling, can see the wooden rafters naked, with green bricks in the middle, like drilling into the belly of a big fish, and when you look up, you can see the blood-red flesh and the thorns of Bai Sensen.

Staring at the roof, the "ghost" in Yafu's heart suddenly popped up, this time he didn't study any "green eyes", but pondered Principal Zhao's words, listed as follows:

Man: Why is he so sure?

Ghost: Because what you don't know, he knows.

Man: What?

Ghost: You know the secret you don't know!

Person: Do you know me? What do I know? Why don't I know?

Ghost: Don't pretend to be crazy and stupid, you know it yourself, and last night I told people a lot of inexplicable things, like a lullaby, and they were sleepy when they heard it. Why, you forgot about it yourself?

Person: What did I say? I can't remember.

Ghost: You decent people! It's all duplicity, insincerity, and indescribable words! The front foot just swore an oath, and when he turned his head, he forgot about it.

Person: I'm sorry, but if you forget, it's an unintentional mistake.

Ghost: Cut~! Unintentional? Have you ever really put your heart into it? This man, when he talks nonsense, he is really more powerful than ghosts!

Person: It's a pity I'm not ......

Ghost: What's not it?

Man: I'm not a person.

Yao laughed, hot tears running down the corners of his eyes, flowing down his ears and neck, like a knife. The fluorescent lamps overhead also became blurred.

Everyone has a ghost hidden in their hearts, or a group of ghosts.

At first, it was just hidden, and I was embarrassed to show it. But when he turned into a ghost, or discarded that heart, everything became naturally naked.

Eerie and narrow alleys, cold old houses, gloomy mood.

When Yao was buried in the guilt of frustration and couldn't extricate himself, his phone rang.

It's his classmate, the saury.

"Hello?" Yafu's head was a little swollen, and his temples were throbbing.

"Hey, old master! Where is it now? "On the other side is a smooth voice.

"What? Saury? Is there something wrong? ”

"Ahem~! Why are you calling if you have nothing to do! Is it empty at night? Let's go out to eat together! ”

“……”

"Don't spit out, it looks like it's okay? Haven't eaten yet, have you? Just right! I'll pick you up by car! Don't run away! It's only here in 10 minutes! ”

After the other party finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Who is the saury? is exactly the aforementioned, one of Yafu's buddies in the same dormitory, the one who ridiculed when writing a letter, "all the mobile phones shake directly oh oh fork", named Jin Dapeng, one year older than Yafu, a native of Jiahe, a rich second generation, because he was born skinny and like oily tones, his classmates gave him the nickname "Knife Fish".

In less than ten minutes, there was a knock on the door, and Yafu got up, but there was a round Humpty Dumpty man standing in the doorway.

Isn't the saury skinny? Why is there a fat man again?

"Fat cat?" Yao was also surprised, "What, you're back?" ”

"Haha!" Humpty Dumpty at the door smiled and replied, "Yes! Just arrived today, haha! ”

is known as the fat cat, which is another roommate who ridiculed Yafu for writing a letter to "Sister Lin", the big name Yin Fengxiang, who is also a family member of Jiahe, who went to Nanyang for a study tour half a year earlier, and happened to come back on this day.

The fat cat clenched his fist and punched Yafu in the chest, continued to laugh, and said, "Hurry up and get in the car!" I don't want to stay in your haunted house for too long. ”

"Let's go!" Yafu also patted the fat cat on the back and walked out together. I vaguely heard someone in the corner of the house, and sighed sadly.

A yellow coupe stopped at the intersection, the sky was darker, and the colorful night lights were brighter. In the driver's seat, it was indeed a knifefish, and he whistled back to the face of the thin monkey, and there was a pretty girl with long hair and bare shoulders next to her.

Slammed the car door shut, a motor roared, and the yellow coupe sped towards Fengming Road.

Fengming Road, the most famous and lively commercial street in Jiahe, is not one of them. Goulan wine shop, row upon row, bright and green, gold hell. Brightly dressed broads, local tyrants, and all kinds of powerful people are touting, shouting, and shuttling with each other.

The coupe was fluently parked in front of a neon-lit hotel, and a waiter boy had already come to park the car on his behalf. The knife fish was held by the fudge-like woman next to him, and the fat cat walked behind him, pushing Yafu into the hotel lobby. A golden glow, mixed with a pleasant cold air and a smoky scent of flowers, fluttered like a wave.

"Yo~! Isn't this Kim Dashao~! Welcome, welcome! Hurry inside please! With a wave of pretentious and angry greetings, he shook a person over as if he was twisting Yangge.

When I looked closely, he was dressed in a dark welcome dress, a seven-foot man with oily hair and a beard, but he was weeping willows and charming all over his body. Especially those big watery eyes, full of spring, are really more feminine than women, how disgusting and disgusting.

The knife fish hugged the woman who was twisted into a twist and stuck to her body with her left hand, and raised her right hand, her face full of disdain: "Go and go, what's the matter, keep a low profile!" ”

"Oh~! Hehehe, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no, when I saw you coming, I was so excited and excited all of a sudden, didn't I ......" The sissy man on the other side laughed and asked, "Which room did you book today?" ”

"Which room? You come and ask me? The knifefish rolled his eyes, quite dissatisfied.

"Oh, oh, look at my excited, incoherent speech! The nephew hits the lantern, as usual! The sissy man squinted, pinched his orchid finger, and pointed at the waitress who always followed him with his head close to his ear, "Xiao Wang, hurry up, Canghai Hall, be careful!" ”

The waitress followed, led everyone to the elevator, and walked to the box. The sissy man bowed down and sang a promise, and then shook it to the door to greet the guests.

The hotel is elegantly decorated, and when I came in, I was in a hurry and forgot to look at the name of the store. Looking at the style, it should belong to the oriental court style, carved beams and painted buildings, showing the royal style; Antiques are all priceless. Turn a long corridor, there is a small garden in front of you, the lake stone is the shore, build a pavilion according to the water, and plant Qiongzhi jade trees, strange flowers and plants. Crossing a small and delicate jade arch bridge, opening an amethyst bead curtain, suddenly a row of four women in yellow shirts and red pants bent down and saluted, chanting in unison: "Welcome!" ”

Yafu and the fat cat were shocked, is this a place to eat? Inside, a large round platform of more than two meters, carved dragons and phoenixes, black purple in color, and a circle of carved seats of the same wood on the periphery. A brilliant crystal lamp on the top of the head, and a splashed landscape four or five meters wide behind the main seat, quite a thousand strokes.

The swordfish is familiar with the way, and he takes the main seat and sits on it; The fat cat was not polite, and sat down at the guest of honor on his right hand; Yafu stood at first, thinking that the seat on the left hand next to the knife fish should be the woman's, but the knife fish raised his hand and said Come on, old master, you sit next to me, who is it, Lucy, you accompany my fat cat brother, accompany me.

The fat cat was flattered when she heard this, shook her hand again and again, and said like a sutra in her mouth: "No, no, no, how can this work, knife-oh no, Dapeng, how can this sister-in-law accompany me?" Isn't this messy......" He muttered as two round cat's eyes aimed at the "sister-in-law".

The knife fish waved his hand again, staring at the woman opposite, but said to the fat cat: "What sister-in-law, this is my partner, Lucy, I heard that you came back from Nanyang today, and specially brought me over to catch you up, right?" Lucy! ”

The woman didn't speak, twisted her waist, and smiled.

The swordfish stretched out his hand again, grabbed Yafu's wrist like a ghost claw, and said loudly: "And! Old Master! Please come with you today, we haven't been together for a long time, and we will rest tonight! Get drunk! ”

At this time, the fat cat had already laughed into a flower, and was so excited that he was full of thanks, but he seemed to remember something again, frowned, and asked, "Such a big box, won't there be just a few of us today?" ”

"It's just a few of us, no one else."

"Oh, that, that, I'm so embarrassed!"

When everyone was greeting, the four women in yellow shirts and red pants just now didn't need to shout, they were automatically busy, served cold dishes like water, added drinks, ice water, sauce and vinegar, asked again, and opened a bottle of 52 degrees Fengming special brew, which overflowed with wine, bluffing the fat cat and shaking his hand desperately, shouting: "I can't help it!" I can't help it! You don't know how much I drink, it's me who sacrifices every time! This white one won't come! I'm going to drink some beer today, okay? ”

"Look at your cowardice! You'll have a cup today, total control! ”

"No, no, no! Not even a glass! ”

"Fat cat, why are you so unhappy! We'll just have a bottle, Lucy doesn't drink it, she'll drive later. I'll order more with the old master, and you'll have a drink, how about it? ”

"Uh...... Just a glass, a small glass. ”

"Just a drink! More we drink! ”

……

As the saying goes: wine has passed three rounds, and food has five flavors.

For more than an hour, the dish had already passed the five flavors, the wine, where was the bottle that was promised, and two empty bottles were lying on the ground. The fat cat is flushed, dancing, and drunk; Even Yafu, who usually boasts of a decent amount of alcohol, is already a little tongue-in-cheek.

It is said that there are several states of drinking: first it is not in the state, it is a little restrained - soft-spoken, then it is drunk to strengthen people's courage and call it a brother - bold words, then it is crazy with wine, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai - talking nonsense, and finally drunk and drunk like mud - speechless.

In the current situation, the fat cat has been talking nonsense, Yafu and the knife fish are also a little arrogant, and of course, there is a beautiful partner Lucy, who has not been drinking, who is smiling and silent on the other side.

The three of them were red-faced and hot-eared, blowing interesting stories and bad things about the past, including mentioning the matter of Yafu writing a letter to his family, the fat cat and the knife fish both used the tone of ridicule at the beginning, and one still said with a wicked smile: "I said old master, the mood is very hilarious!" What about writing a love letter to Sister Lin? The other went on to say, "It's useful to write that!" All the phones are shaking, oh oh fork fork! Lucy giggled.

The room was full of spring breeze, haha and laughing, and I saw that the "Ping Pong" on the door panel was slapped twice, and suddenly shook into a bald head, carrying a wine bottle, and scolded loudly:

"I should be the god of the road! It's you kid! Hide here to eat and drink, and your old man doesn't care about discipline? ”

Yafu's eyes were hazy and drunk, as if he saw several red demons rushing in and flying in front of him.

When the knife fish saw the bald head, he had to stand up, clasped his hands into fists and laughed: "Oh, I didn't expect it!" Uncle Cen! You're a good old man! ”

The bald head Cen glanced at Yafu and the others, although his eyes were drunk, they were still extremely fierce. He raised the red wine bottle in his hand and said domineeringly: "Xiaopeng boy! In terms of seniority, you little bunnies can't take my turn to ask questions, let alone drink! ......" He suddenly paused, turned back viciously, and scolded: "Why are you rabbits shrinking behind, don't you get out quickly!" ”

Before the scolding stopped, outside the door hesitated, grinding, twisting and pinching and shaking into a person, it was the sissy man who greeted him just now, I saw him crying and mourning, and for a while he looked at the fierce bald head Cen, and then looked at the embarrassed swordfish.

"Don't say it yet!" Uncle Cen urged again.

Only then did the sissy man tremble and say, "Oh, several uncles have spared me!" I'm not good, I didn't give Uncle Cen a good private room......"

The knife fish was a little puzzled at first, it is said that this Uncle Cen and his father have a good relationship, and they have never married Liangzi before, how can they scold and rush in today to put a cannon, it turns out that they have taken a fancy to my private room! After all, he was young and vigorous, so he didn't think much about it, and blurted out: "Uncle Cen! You're an elder, don't you know the first-come-first-served rule? ”

The sissy man on the side, who was already frightened, was even more anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the swordfish and persuaded: "Ah, yes, that's not what you said!" Uncle Cen is also well-intentioned today, and it is of special significance that he wants to invite guests to sit in this hall......"

"Oh? I don't understand, what's the special significance? "The knife fish terrier stalks the neck, and the yafu, fat cat, and Lucy next to him are worried together.

The sissy man leaned forward and muttered in the ears of the swordfish.

Unexpectedly, the knife fish stood up when he heard the words, raised his wine glass to the bald head Cen, said "offended", and did it all.

What's the situation?

Yafu and the others were stunned by this change, and before they could come back to their senses, they saw the knife fish pick up the wine bottle, made a gesture of invitation to Uncle Cen, and said, "I'm sorry Uncle Cen!" If you are offended, I will go over and compensate your VIPs! Please! ”

The bald head Cen snorted and said that the doll was quite sensible, so he turned around and led the knife fish out of the box.

The fat cat was scared to wake up from the wine just now, and asked Yafu if we should go over to accompany him, but Lucy next to him sneered and said, "No, he is so virtuous!" It is estimated that the guests over there are not small, and they may also know, you are strangers, it is not very convenient, come, I will replace the wine with tea, and toast the two of you with a glass. ”

Yao took advantage of the topic and asked, "May I ask Lu...... Lucy, now the swordfish, oh, it's the Roc, what kind of business? ”

Lucy stroked the long hair around her neck, looked at the orange juice in the cup and said, "There is no business or business, but I have started a cultural and creative company." ”

"That's good!" The fat cat rushed to talk, "This line is very popular now!" ”

"Where it is popular, you can't find customers, and it's difficult to do business."

"So which customers are you targeting?"

"There's something from all walks of life. In the past two days, I have been talking about a project for a cultural relics exhibition. It just so happens that you are all studying art and design, so you can help us with our staff. ”

"Ahem~! Let's forget it, how can there be a knifefish, hehe......"

Yafu listened to the fat cat and Lucy chatting with each other, and was still worried about the situation in the box over there: who the hell was there? Is the saury holding up? …… Then he heard another shout at the door: "Listen to all those inside!" Our boss has come to toast! ”

There seemed to be a customized version of the music of "XX Beach" when Xu Wenqiang appeared in his ears - I saw a tall and burly middle-aged man slowly walking in, with black hair, not thick eyebrows, not big eyes, a long horse face, a handful of white short beards on the chin, trimmed very neatly, wearing a silk placket pure black casual clothes, looking full of aura, but a little gangster.

Beside him, he was accompanied by Daoyu and the bald head Cen who had just come in to make trouble, followed by seven or eight subordinates, there were too many people, and he couldn't see clearly for a while.

And the sissy man, like a matchmaker with a mole on her face, swayed and guided, and said hello: "Come on, come on!" Respect to our Golden Harvest 'Fuqiu', the big owner of Extraordinary Group, Mr. Qiu, Mr. Qiu! ”

Fuqiu? Extraordinary? Mr. Qiu?

Yafu faintly felt that something was wrong, and as he was mechanically picking up the cup with everyone, he suddenly saw that there seemed to be two girls in the crowd behind him.

One of them has a shorter and more childish face that is raw, and the other, hum, turns to ashes and knows it!

It's none other than "Red Bean Ice Cream", Miss Qiu from the company's general office!

Moreover, as if I had already felt the eyes of the ice blade on the other side, Miss Qiu must have recognized me as well.

Finished! My brain buzzed and exploded! It's too small! It's really a narrow road, how can this be good?

What happens next, next time I will break it down.
