Chapter 2: It's not easy to eat a meal on your own

The crowds are crowded, the streets are not very spacious, and walking through crowded places is inevitably a burst of pushing. The old man walked in front but looked leisurely, and he could always find the ridicule of the crowd and walk by lightly.

Slowing down his pace slightly, Gu Nan followed behind the old man unhurriedly, and at the same time gradually adjusted his pace to keep the pace consistent with the other party. His eyes fell on the old man's waist and he looked at it again.

The rope that holds the money bag is tied to a slipknot that can be untied with a slight pull. This method of tying is convenient for withdrawing money, but it is also convenient for stealing. If there was a dead knot, Gu Nan would walk away without saying a word. There was no knife in her hand to cut the rope quickly, and she didn't have the ability to untie a dead knot without anyone else noticing.

The money bag looked heavy, swaying with the old man's steps.

All that's left is to wait for an opportunity, Gu Nan pursed his lips and looked ahead. There seems to be a good cookcake stand in front of you, and there are about seven or eight people waiting there, ready to buy one and try it. This should be regarded as a bustling market in the market, and there are many people coming and going on the road.

"Ahem." The old man glanced at the cooking cake stall on the side of the road, if he had come back before, he might have come back to get a few, but now that this person is old, his teeth are not as good as before, so he should be free. It's hard to come out for a walk, but he's still going to find an old place to drink tea.

"Smack." Suddenly, I felt someone on my right shoulder tapped me, and I unconsciously turned my head to look over, but there was no one.

"Whew." There was an inaudible sound of wind behind him, and in the noise of the crowd, it was almost impossible to hear.

The old man suddenly understood what was going on, his eyebrows furrowed, and a hint of banter flashed in his eyes.

Okay, you dare to steal something from me!

Hey, got it. Gu Nan's hand quietly sprang out like a spiritual snake, swift and without making a sound, strangely bypassing the old man's waist and pulling silently on the rope of the money bag.

There was a slight friction between the knots, and the money bag had already fallen, and it was firmly caught by one hand, and there was no movement.

Well, you will retire after success. The corners of Gu Nan's mouth curled. He was about to retreat, but was firmly grasped by an old hand.

A somewhat hoarse voice said calmly: "Little brother, it's not the way of a gentleman to take it without asking." ”

The old man said sullenly, turned his head, and a pair of sharp eyes that didn't look like an old man at all swept over Gu Nan's cheeks.

"Goo." It was only half a second of looking at each other, but Gu Nan felt like falling into an ice cave, in the scorching summer, this terrifying feeling made a drop of cold sweat drip on her forehead.

When the old man saw Gu Nan's face, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then his eyes fell on her slightly bulging chest, and he nodded clearly: "Oh, I was wrong, it turned out to be a little girl." ”

God, who said that the old man was slow to react, come out, I won't kill him.

His eyes moved slightly, and Gu Nan's eyes had already drifted to a remote street.

Slide.

Gritting his teeth, the grabbed hand tried to pull it back, but the other party's hand was clasped like an iron hoop and did not loosen at all.

The old man stood still in place, but it was Gu Nan, who was pulling his hand with a red face, but it was useless.

Well? The old man frowned, and slowly exerted his strength in his hands, already using eighty percent of his strength.

He knew his own strength, although he was old, but even if he didn't use internal force, the strength at hand was at least six hundred catties (300kg).

Ordinary two or three men couldn't pull themselves at all.

And the little girl in front of her, who doesn't seem to be very old, actually let herself use eighty percent of her strength, which is at least four or five hundred pounds.

This girl has a lot of strength. The old man thought to himself, but he still didn't let go, and let Gu Nan pull and pull there.

Damn, what the hell is this old man, or is it that the people in this place are so perverted. Gu Nan had the urge to cry, he was stealing money to satisfy his stomach, how could he encounter such a thing.

After tugging for a long time, Gu Nan finally gave up the useless work, took a breath, and showed a dry smile to the old man: "Old man, life is not easy in the world, otherwise, how about letting me go?" We have met in the mountains and rivers, and the grace of today will be rewarded in the future. ”

The girl's speech was interesting, the old man smiled, stretched out his hand, and took the money bag in Gu Nan's hand.

I glanced her up and down a few times, dressed in rags, and there were a few dirty mud marks on my face that should have been handsome and handsome, thinking that it was a poor person in distress at home: "Girl, where are you from?" ”

The old man asked lightly in Gu Nan's uncertain eyes.

"Me." Gu Nan hesitated, what did she say, she didn't know what the hell it was, she couldn't even name a place at all, okay, could it be that she was from a global village?

Coughing, Gu Nan's eyes dodged weakly, and the dead duck said stiffly, "I don't remember." ”

"Don't remember?" The old man was stunned for a moment: "What about the family." ”

With nowhere to hide, Gu Nan simply lowered his head, didn't look at the old man's eyes, kicked the stones on the ground with his toes, and muttered, "No." ”

She herself doesn't have much to care about, after all, it's not a year or two without a family, and she's used to it for a long time.

Without a father or mother, have you forgotten where your home is?

Looking at the girl with her head bowed in front of her, the old man's eyes were a little helpless, and the iron hoop seemed to loosen a little, too, this is such a troubled world after all.

"If you don't want to go to the government, come with me." The old man let go of his hand, turned around and walked away.

No, this old man doesn't have any special ideas.

Gu Nan looked down at his body, although he was very reluctant to admit it, but he was indeed very attractive. Thinking of this, Gu Nan suddenly thought of running away again.

"Don't think about running, the old man wants to arrest you, it's still very simple." The old man glanced back and said tepidly, with a kind of confidence in his tone.

On the day, Gu Nan blackened his face and followed fiercely.

Follow it, I'm afraid you won't make it.

A small teahouse on the side of the road, said to be a teahouse, is actually just a small tea stall made of bamboo huts and hay.

There were a few tables inside, the wooden ones were a little rough polished, and there was a dilapidated couch on the side, but there was barely a place to sit.

There are a lot of people in the teahouse, and in the sultry weather, after walking on the street for a long time, and you want to take a break, this kind of roadside teahouse will always be a good choice.

People drink tea and talk about it, and occasionally talk a few high-minded words, but it is also this small teahouse that is very lively.

In the corner of the teahouse sat an old man and a young man, and as he looked at it, he was a decent old man with a down-and-out young man. The old man asked for a pot of tea, drank it like this, and looked at the street. And the "boy" opposite him was grabbing the rice bowl in front of him and swallowing it in a big gulp, and her gobbling sound could be heard from afar.
