Chapter 388: Whereabouts

After half an hour, Zhao Gou didn't even see a figure, which made him really want to cry without tears. It didn't work before, and it didn't work after, so I had to wait where I was. After a while, Zhao Gou finally heard the sound of hurried footsteps, but not from the front, but from behind.

Zhao Gou turned around in surprise, wanting to inquire about the road conditions, but before he could speak, the person who came shouted loudly: "Guest officer, it turns out that you are here, it is really easy for the little old man to find!" ”

"Shopkeeper, why are you?" Zhao Gou saw that the person who came was actually the innkeeper who stayed last night, but he didn't see the shopkeeper coming, and looked at him in surprise.

The shopkeeper replied: "The little old man ate some wine last night, his head is not clear, and he forgot to tell the guest officer that the road here is a bit complicated, seven horizontal and eight vertical, if a foreigner strays into it, it is difficult to get out." When I woke up this morning, I found that the two of them were no longer in the room, and I thought that the two of them must have left. ”

However, if there is no one to guide you, it is easy to get lost here, so the little old man came all the way. If it weren't for the guest officer waiting here, if he took the wrong road, he wouldn't have been able to get out after dark. ”

Zhao Gou saw that the shopkeeper was worried that he and the others would get lost, so he abandoned the business in the store and hurriedly ran over. If it weren't for the fact that the two of them didn't know the way, I'm afraid that they really took one casually, it would be really bad. So, the shopkeeper's favor, Zhao Gou wrote down.

The shopkeeper also saw that he was here, so he simply accompanied Zhao Gou and the others to go on a journey. Zhao Gou saw that he was familiar with the road, as if he had walked countless times, and there was no mistake at all, so he couldn't help asking: "Shopkeeper, how can you be so familiar?" ”

"The little old man is a villager of Yong'an Village, and he grew up here since he was a child, how he doesn't know the way." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Zhao Gou was pleasantly surprised: "The shopkeeper is a villager from Yongan Village, why did you say it earlier?" If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered so much! ”

There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!

If Zhao Gou knew that the shopkeeper was a villager from Yong'an Village, he could just let the shopkeeper lead the way, and he didn't have to run around like a headless fly. It's just that the shopkeeper hasn't said it, and Zhao Gou doesn't know about it, and he almost "went astray"!

"Shopkeeper, you are a villager of Yong'an Village, so the people in Gaojiazhuang should be familiar with one or two!" Zhao Gou went south to look for someone, and he was unfamiliar with the place, if he had the shopkeeper to lead the way, and knew where that person lived, wouldn't it save a lot of time.

The shopkeeper was stunned: "I know a little bit about it!" ”

When Zhao Gou came, he said that he wanted to go to Gaojiazhuang, and he was a foreigner, so he was bound to come to find someone. It's just that he didn't care, at that time it was more about guarding against Zhao Gou. After all, the locals basically rarely want outsiders to disturb their peaceful life, and seeing that Zhao Gou is really looking for someone, they secretly plan to hear who it is before making plans.

"Shopkeeper, do you know Gao Feihu?" Zhao Gou directly reported the name of the searcher, and then said: "This person is about twenty years old, knows some fists and feet, and has a high hall; I don't know what it looks like, but I heard it from a friend, so I must come! ”

"Goofy Tiger?" The shopkeeper frowned, lowered his head in contemplation, and said, "Guest officer, this little old man really doesn't know him, and he hasn't heard of it." Besides, there are so many people in the high hall that I can't remember who it is. Don't know the name of the high hall? ”

Zhao Gou smiled bitterly and shook his head, he really didn't know Gao Feihu's mother's surname. After all, Chen Guang didn't talk about it, how did he know. The shopkeeper is also telling the truth, he really hasn't heard of the name "Gao Feihu", and there are not a few people who know some kung fu, so he can't help!

"His father is Gao Guang, I don't know if the shopkeeper has heard of it?" Zhao thought about it, and in the end, he could only tell Chen Guang's name, otherwise he would have no clue at all, like looking for a needle in a haystack, it was really not easy to find someone.

The shopkeeper was surprised: "Are you talking about Hu'er?" ”

Zhao Gou was puzzled: "Hu'er? ”

"If you're talking about the son of Gao Guang, it's Hu'er!" The shopkeeper smiled embarrassedly and said: "Hu'er is called by our township, as for his real name, Xiao Lao'er really doesn't know, but there is an old mother in his family, and Chen Guang said by the guest officer must be the one he enlisted in the army and fought on the battlefield!" ”

Zhao Gou nodded hurriedly: "Yes, it's this person!" ”

"Speaking of this, Chen Guangzhen is not a thing, leaving the mother and son at home, and never come back to see it for ten years, if it weren't for the filial piety of the tiger and the help of the township, I am afraid that life will be a little difficult." The shopkeeper sighed, "I heard that the people in Gaojiazhuang said that Chen Guang was afraid that something had happened, but Huzi never believed that something was wrong with his father; Over time, everyone has confirmed in their hearts that he is not there, but he has suffered from the mother and son of the tiger! ……”

Zhao Gou listened carefully, and when the shopkeeper talked about Gao Feihu's condition, he guessed in his heart that after Chen Guang left, the family was even more embarrassed. Even if Gao Feihu has some fists and kicks, he has no chance to show it, and the shopkeeper's guess is good, if you calculate it in time, it is estimated that Chen Guang is afraid that there is really an accident.

Thinking of this, Zhao Gou's face was also a little sad!

The shopkeeper saw Zhao Gou like this, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, you are Chen Guang's friend!" ”

"Sort of!" Zhao Gou couldn't say that Chen Guang was half of his master, so he could only answer like this.

"Guest officer, it's not that the little old man said anything about him, if there is really something, you have to bring a letter back to report safety!" The shopkeeper said earnestly, "Even if the military is busy, there will be no war every day!" There is always a time to bring a message back, but I didn't expect it to be ten years in a blink of an eye; If it weren't for Huzi's filial piety, I'm afraid his mother would have ......"

Although the shopkeeper's words were not finished, Zhao Gou heard that Gao Feihu's mother was seriously ill, and this condition was not light. The words behind the shopkeeper confirmed that Zhao Gou's conjecture was correct. Gao Feihu's mother, Chen Guang's wife, was seriously ill.

At that time, there was no silver at home, Gao Feihu knelt at the doctor's door for a day and a night, and finally the doctor was moved by his filial piety, and Gao Feihu also promised to help him work to pay off his debts, which made his mother's condition better, but because of the long time, delayed, there was a root of the disease, and the old disease would recur every time it rained or was cold.

At this time, it was the time when the weather was cold and the ground was freezing, and it was also the time when Gao Feihu's mother was seriously ill; Most of the money Gao Feihu works every day is used to buy medicine, and he knows how to do some fists and kicks, so he takes care of the homes for the local people, and he also has a meager income, so it is still difficult to resist the money to buy medicine.

Gao Feihu has always insisted on treating his mother's illness, and his only wish is to let his mother see his father, and he doesn't want his mother to leave early. So, this persistence lasted for five years, from a teenager to a stout guy, he made more money, filled the family, and treated his mother's illness, and his life was tight, a little better than before.

Zhao Gou was full of emotion in his heart, he didn't expect Gao Feihu to live so poorly, and his filial piety also deeply touched him. In addition, Zhao Gou guessed that Chen Guang didn't know that his wife was seriously ill, otherwise he wouldn't have said goodbye.

So, Zhao Gou urged the shopkeeper to speed up his pace, wanting to see this Gao Feihu as soon as possible. After all, what promises people must be done, this is Zhao Gou's consistent creed, and it should be like this. Don't promise what you can't do, and do what you promise.
