Chapter 2 Depression and boredom startled

"The advance has arrived, and there are passengers who get off the bus at the back door to prepare in advance." A mechanical synthetic woman's voice interrupted Long Jiang's endless memories.

Cut, five thousand dollars, in exchange for such a thing, it should be regarded as a good deed.

Long Jiang flicked his fingers at the door that had been opened, and was about to throw it away, but an aunt in the back waited impatiently, "Young man, can't you get out of the car?" ”

"Who's going to say it's going to be down?"

Long Jiang hooked his fingers, put the ring back in his pocket, turned his head and glared at his aunt, and quickly jumped out of the car.

There is still the last stop ahead of the Qianjin Bus Terminal, where the No. 26 bus arrives.

The driver Lao Mo was obviously eager to go home, the aunt just got off the bus, the door couldn't wait to close, the bus seemed to have just woken up, roared, spewed out bursts of blue smoke, pouted and ran quickly.

A smell of garbage and rancidity, mixed with the faint fragrance of the surrounding small restaurants, accompanied by the hot evening breeze, greasy whirring rushed towards you.

Smelling the smell of playing small habits, Long Jiang smiled, he was really hungry.

With the help of the street lamp that had just been lit, he skillfully greeted the uncle and aunt walking on the side of the road, and hurried home.

Qianjin Street, called Qianjiantun a long time ago, I don't know when the name was changed, belongs to a part of the urban village in Liuhua District.

Long Jiang was born here, surrounded by layers of crowded bungalows and a place in the city with the brightly lit high-rise buildings in the distance.

Like other third-tier cities in Northeast China, Liuyuan City has also set off a boom in land sales and real estate construction in recent years, especially after the mayor named Li Wanjian came to Daqian before the year, and this gust of wind also blew into Qianjin Old Street.

With the help of towering street lamps, Longjiang took light steps, leaving the road and drilling into the small alleys that extend in all directions, turning east and west, and a three-story dilapidated small building appeared in front of him.

This is the sixth branch of the machine repair plant of an oilfield in Yanagihara City. Today, most of the maintenance of oilfield machinery is subcontracted to private companies, and the No. 6 branch factory, like the Longjia soju workshop next door, has become deserted.

Longjiang's home was originally located next to this half-dead factory.

And his father, Long Tianfang, I don't know when he became the gatekeeper of the sixth branch factory, and the backyard of the Long family's sake lees was naturally rebuilt into a staff canteen of the branch.

Long Jiang skillfully drilled into the back door of the courtyard wall of the branch, and with a "Wang" sound, a one-meter-high black shadow hidden in the shadow of the courtyard wall pounced.

It affectionately stretched out the fiery tongue unique to Wang Xingren, licking Long Jiang's palm in a friendly way, and its broom-like tail shook non-stop.

"Rhubarb!"

Long Jiang affectionately hugged the enthusiastic dog, stroking its mane-covered black back, despite the few paw prints left on its body.

The barking of the dog alarmed the family, and a corner door creaked open next to the branch guard's cafeteria.

Long Jiang opened the simple door curtain made of newspapers, and just stepped in, a plain hand with the fragrance of garlic and onions stretched out from it and grabbed Long Jiang's ear.

"Don't, Mom, it hurts, it's going to break, it's broken. Oops, sister, dad, who's at home, save me......"

Long Jiang bared his teeth, squeezed his eyebrows and shouted.

Faced with the commonplace scene, Rhubarb looked at Longjiang disdainfully, turned his head to face Kong Ruohua, the plainly dressed hostess who was standing with her waist crossed, and wagged her tail flatteringly.

Seeing that the charm was still there, the hostess with her pretty eyebrows erected seemed displeased, and she hurriedly clamped her tail and ran to the corner, guarding the empty rice bowl, waiting for the meal to start.

As a well-known tailor in Qianjin Old Street, my mother has a lot of strength, and pinching her ears has always been the most fearful of Longjiang.

The hard life did not change the generosity of Father Long's face, he sat at the humble dining table with a smile, eating dumplings while watching the old TV that should have been eliminated a long time ago.

There was a half-drunk Longjia Xiaoyao next to it as usual, and a floor-to-ceiling electric fan that had been used for many years stood by the dog basin, squeaking desperately and shaking its head to blow the wind.

"Say, what's the trouble today?"

The mother pinched her son's ears, still majestic and majestic.

Long Jiang tiptoed to cooperate with his mother's movements, while baring his white teeth, his eyes rolling:

Could it be that he opened a salary of 2,000 yuan today, and borrowed 3,000 yuan for impotence to pay for the medical expenses of the old man named Wang Tianming, and his mother knew about it?

My mother is saving a lot of money now, and she has to save every penny, saying that she keeps it for her daughter-in-law......

No, impotence certainly can't be said. Could it be another of his friends, Liao Bobo?

What's more, although Liao Bobo gave him the nickname of Big Mimi as soon as he went to school, he must not betray his friends.

"Mom, don't you know your old son? In high school, I am as honest as kindergarten, and in society I am as good as a white rabbit, others don't mess with me, I never mess with others! ”

Seeing that his mother's hand was loose, Long Jiang hurriedly said: "Mom, if you have something to say, put it down first, yes, put it down." Hey, hey,"

Finally got rid of his mother's pinching ears and claws, and slipped behind his mother, stretched out his little claws to help his mother pinch her shoulders, while flatteringly talking.

Sure enough, Kong Ruohua was an anxious son, and without waiting for Long Jiang to finish speaking, he immediately turned around and leaned over, carefully looking at his son's growing face:

"This afternoon, your classmates Yang Dawei and Liao Bobo called one after another, saying that you have no signal from PHS, and asked if you have come back, and if you ask again, you will be in trouble, Xiao Jiang, you won't cause any trouble again?"

Zhi'er is like a mother, Long Jiang secretly complained in his heart, but his face was unusually calm, and he said with a grin:

"Cut, what do I think, Mom, you're making a fuss, scaring me, he's fine, ask me to go out to play billiards at night, your old son has changed, playing ball is expensive and troublesome, so I won't go."

"Really?"

The old mother didn't believe it, staring at the phoenix eyes that already had fine crow's feet.

"Really, Mom, I want to work to make money, after the start of college, I will support myself, hey, I have been standing for a day, hungry, I am hungry, is there anything to eat?"

Sure enough, this hand tried and tried, and my mother was diverted, looked at Longjiang's innocent eyes suspiciously, and turned around to cook dumplings.

Long Jiang helped his mother cut garlic, but his hand slipped, his finger was pulled by a knife, and a few drops of blood came out, and he hurriedly put it in his mouth and sucked it.

I haven't eaten dumplings for a long time, they are so delicious!

After eating, leaving his sister's dumplings, Long Jiang wrapped up the wound, rolled up his sleeves and washed the dishes, fed the dogs, and the family of three calmed down and did their own thing.

Dad continued to concentrate on watching the shabby TV, and Mom busied herself with mending the clothes left behind by the guests during the day.

Long Jiang crooked himself in the old sofa that had revealed the spring, playing with the magnifying glass that his father used to read the newspaper and the broken ring worth 5,000 yuan, while thinking about his thoughts.

Old man Wang's son Wang Xiaogui looks like a bear egg, and his daughter-in-law Hu Li and her thief-eyed yellow-haired relative are not things.

Seeing that the police were there, these villains couldn't ignore Longjiang, so they forcibly helped the bandaged old man out of the hospital while they were not paying attention, and took away a deposit of 5,000 yuan before leaving.

Loot it!

I knew that I wouldn't let Wang Xiaogui keep the hospitalization deposit slip, but I was careless. Long Jiang hated to think that it was the biggest amount of money he had handled in his life!

What a heartache!

It is estimated that the old man Wang didn't care about walking by, so he asked the nurse on duty and secretly stuffed a ring over.

Bah, I thought it was gold, Longjiang had just bitten it with his teeth, not gold!

Magnets have been sucked, not iron!

I saw it with a magnifying glass, except for some vivid fish, dragons and other things carved on the side, it was an ordinary ring.

Moreover, the position of the ring carving is very strange, the ring face is empty, but there is a dense circle of Yangwen animals engraved on the side, and there is no high-powered magnifying glass, so it is not clear at all.

Longjiang rough check, carved on it six fish, slowly getting bigger, the last big fish behind, is a lively dragon, beard to appear, blowing beard and staring, a look of soaring into the air, flying sand and stones.

With the naked eye, the patterns are the size of millet grains, and I don't know what to do.

"Son, ask your sister, it's so late, when will you get home?" Kong Ruohua's voice came from afar from the kitchen.

"Great!" Long Jiang shook it casually, threw the ring to the corner of the wall, and replied happily, but he didn't notice that a few drops of blood in his left hand had slowly seeped into the ring along the edge of the bandage!

"Mom, my sister's mobile phone is busy, I'll call later. It's strange, why is it so late today. ”

"Your sister called today and said that an important guest came and needed to work overtime, this girl, it's really late."

I just paid my salary, and I should be in a good mood today, I don't want to be hot, I don't want to say anything, but I owe a lot of famine.

Is this the price of doing good? Long Jiang collapsed on the sofa and thought sullenly. It's just your own money, borrowing money for impotence to strangers, have you ever done it?

Rhubarb ate some leftovers and drank some dumpling soup, got up happily, sniffed the small black circle thrown by the little master, gritted his teeth, and took it back again.

This is a stunt of rhubarb, no matter how small the object, the tongue is curled, and the teeth are bitten, you can get it in the mouth.

Long Jiang looked at the rhubarb eagerly, reluctantly accepted the ring, washed the rhubarb's saliva, and continued to look with a magnifying glass bored.

Somehow, Long Jiangjue's ring was a little strange, and when he looked over and over again, he found that the relief on the side of the ring had changed, and the eyes of the fish and the dragon had turned red!

Longjiang Daqi found a mother's fine sewing needle and slowly fiddled with it, it turned out that it was not that his eyes had turned red, but that there were blood stains on his fingers.

Long Jiang removed the bloodstains and looked bored with the help of a high-powered magnifying glass, but found that a small hole suddenly appeared in the eyes of each fish and dragon!

Strange, why didn't you see it just now?

He was very bored, and slowly probed the small hole in the eye of the smallest fish with the tip of the needle, but the tip of the needle sank, and it was very smooth to pierce it.

The ring makes a slight "click"!

It's kind of interesting! Longjiang pricked one by one, and sure enough, each small hole made an extremely slight "click" sound.

If it weren't for Long Jiang's extremely spiritual ears, he wouldn't be able to hear at all.

The last stitch was pulled out of the small hole in the dragon's eye, and Long Jiang suddenly felt that the ring in his hand trembled slightly, and the click,

And the blood stains that remained around the small hole also disappeared!

The "click" sound continued to sound for half a minute, and when Long Jiang was in doubt, the ring suddenly shook, and then suddenly swelled, and the buzzing sound broke out of Long Jiang's control, and floated into the air on its own, emitting a dazzling blue light!

The light slowly dimmed, gradually disappeared in front of the eyes, and scattered into extremely fine black and white particles, floating in the air, fierce rhythm, bright and charming!

Longjiang Daqi just wanted to touch it with his hand, but unexpectedly, the particles suddenly gathered in one place, crossed a long white trajectory in the air, paused slightly, and flew into his left hand with a "whoosh"!

There was a pain in the left palm, followed by numbness, and a faint smell of burnt flesh filled the air.

Long Jiang was shocked, shook his hand and jumped up, only to see that the ring had completely disappeared! But something appeared in his left palm that stunned him.
