Chapter 135: An Extra Finger

Tang Ge hurriedly instructed Zhang Long to arrange wine and food, and then couldn't wait to ask the old beggar about the situation. When the old beggar told www.biquge.info what had happened, Tang Ge quipped: "I guess in Caojiao, you must have said a lot of bad things about me." ”

The old beggar said with a straight voice: "I always call Hanako and never speak ill of people behind my back." ”

Tang Ge laughed when he heard this, pointed at the old beggar and said, "Your shameless appearance is really a bit like my style, no wonder you will agree to my requirements and conditions." ”

When the old beggar heard this, he was silent for a long time, and then he said: "I know that you still have doubts in your heart, young witch, but you are indeed willing to ask Hanako to help you do this." ”

Seeing this, Tang Ge also said with a straight face: "I really want to know what you agreed to this matter so easily, what is it for." ”

The old beggar smiled bitterly and sighed, "The reason is very simple. Just like you said, Shaowu, I am already old, and there will always be a day when I can't get food and can't steal things. The old name Hanako has no children and no daughters in her life, and she has no one to rely on, and now, it's time to find a way back for herself. ”

"Then why did you choose us Banpo dolphins?" Tang Ge asked.

"To be honest, it's not like I haven't considered selling you Shaowu and switching to the Heyang tribe. But the Heyang tribe is not a good place to retire, and the reputation of your Banpo dolphin is also known by the old Huazi, and the current living conditions of the Banpo dolphin, the old Huazi is really a little envious. ”

Tang Ge looked at the old beggar squarely and asked again, "You haven't thought about what will happen if the matter is revealed?" ”

The old beggar smiled freely: "It's nothing more than a life." For us called Hanako, it doesn't matter if you die early or later, maybe you will die early and suffer a few years less. If you can use my rotten life to have a few years of happiness, I always ask Hanako to take advantage of it. ”

When Tang Ge heard this, he looked directly into the eyes of the old beggar and said in a slow but firm tone: "Since this is the case, then I will no longer investigate your origin and identity, but please rest assured." Since you are doing things for the Banpo dolphin, then the Banpo dolphin will not treat you badly. I swear in the name of Shaowu that as long as this thing is done, you will definitely enjoy the best treatment in Banpo Dolphin, until Banpo Dolphin will provide for you in retirement. ”

Regarding the identity of the old beggar, Tang Ge actually had doubts. Although this old man said that he was born as a slave, and later fled because he was dissatisfied with the beating and scolding of his master, Tang Ge didn't even believe a word of these nonsense.

The old beggar's speech and demeanor could faintly see a sense of arrogance. Although the old beggar lived by stealing and begging, he still could not hide the momentum that belonged to the superior, and this kind of momentum could not appear in the slave. Whether they were born slaves or later captured by the slave team.

And the slaves should always have some tattoos or scars or something, all kinds of strange imprints on their bodies. And Tang Ge also made people secretly observe, not to mention the imprint on the old beggar's body, not even a scar, so no matter what aspect it is, this old beggar could never have been a slave before.

However, it doesn't matter what the old beggar's identity was before, for Tang Ge, what is certain now is that he is really a helpless old man who makes a living by begging and stealing, and he is willing to seek happiness in the second half of his life by helping Banpo Dolphin, which is enough.

After listening to Tang Ge's heartfelt words, the old beggar smiled slightly, and his smile seemed to reveal a sense of relief, but his eyes seemed to have countless gloom after all the vicissitudes of life.

The atmosphere was a little silent for a while, but fortunately, at this time, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu Dynasty Ma Han rushed in and sent in the dishes that Tang Ge had ordered the kitchen to prepare. The old beggar looked at the dishes in front of him stupidly, showing a smile and crying.

In front of the old beggar were nourishing chicken soup, called flower chicken, roast chicken, boiled fried chicken, and salt-baked chicken. On the small case, all kinds of dishes are crowded, but although there are many dishes, there is only one ingredient, that is: chicken!

The old beggar picked the fat chicken stewed in a casserole with chopsticks to nourish the chicken soup, and asked a little speechlessly: "Do you Banpo dolphin have a grudge against the chicken or how to drop?" I finally came here, why didn't I give anything else but chickens? ”

Tang Ge asked in surprise: "Don't you call Hanako and like to eat chicken?" ”

The old beggar was surprised and asked, "Who are you listening to talk nonsense to you?" There has never been such a statement, okay! Let's not talk about others, let's just say that my name is always Hanako, and what I like is fish belly. I heard that you Banpo dolphin can make the fish belly slender and long, and there is a very choking seasoning, the fish belly made is quite refreshing to eat, and the taste is also very good, I have long wanted to taste it. ”

Tang Ge spread his hands helplessly when he heard this: "But now there are no fish in the tribe!" If you say it earlier, I'll get you a few, and it's no big deal. But where am I going to get it now? ”

The old beggar waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it." Our name is Hanako, and it was originally what others gave us to eat, and where was the qualification for picky eating. It's good to have chicken to eat. ”

After speaking, the old beggar did not wash his hands, but reached out and picked up a chicken and began to nibble.

The old beggar had a black and white hand on his hand, and it was dirty, but he didn't see it, holding a chicken called Hua Hua and dragging it, chewing the chicken and chewing it, and eating it quite boldly.

The old beggar showed such a strong desire to eat, and the infected Tang Ge couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of spit, so he also picked up the fat chicken in front of him and began to gobble it up.

Tang Ge was not hungry in the first place, and after taking a few bites of chicken, his stomach was full. So he stared at the old beggar's appearance.

The old beggar's hair was gray, his face was full of folds and black ash, except for those eyes, there was a smell of laziness all over his body, but I don't know why, Tang Ge felt that the old beggar had the temperament of those uninhibited masters in martial arts novels, so Tang Ge, who had a second illness in martial arts, couldn't help but ask the old beggar: "By the way, what is your name?" ”

The old beggar craned his neck, swallowed the chicken in his mouth, and said disdainfully: "I'm just a stinky begging for food, where is the name?" ”

Tang Ge said: "You are indeed very stinky...... But since you're going to help us with the Banpo dolphin, you have to have a name. ”

The old beggar said indifferently: "It's just a code name, it's always called a flower, a dead old man, as long as you like it, you can call it whatever you want." ”

Tang Ge asked tentatively, "Is it better to call Hong Qi?" You love chicken, and you're old, so call you Hong Qigong. ”

The old beggar swallowed the chicken in his mouth again, and said with a blank face: "I said that I like to eat fish belly, but the name Hong Qi is also very good." In the future, call me Hong Qi. ”

Tang Ge smacked his lips, looked at the "dog beating stick" in the corner, and then looked at Hong Qi, who was boiling chicken with one hand and stir-fried chicken with the other, and couldn't help muttering: "It's a pity that there are more fingers, if there are fewer fingers, it would be perfect." ”

The old beggar asked, "What did you say?" ”

Tang Ge hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's nothing, just eat yours quickly." ”

The old beggar took a sip of wine, shook his head and said, "If nothing else, as long as there is wine to drink, I will be willing to put the rest of my life on the slope dolphin." ”

Tang Ge said: "Don't worry, I definitely have enough wine here." But drinking too much of this stuff hurts your body, so you'd better take it easy. ”

The old beggar smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I heard that you have a name for this wine, which is called Forget Worries." What a name! It would be nice if I could really forget my worries......"

Tang Ge also sighed: "It's a pity, borrowing wine to drown your sorrow is even more sorrowful." I want to forget my worries too......"

The dishes on the table, including the soup and water, were swept clean by the old beggar Hong Qi, and Tang Ge talked to him about business. Hong Qiyan said that Cao Jiao didn't fully trust him, and even when he came over this time, it was by probing the information of Banpo Dolphin.

Tang Ge summed up with Hong Qi on this, and let Hong Qi leak some less important information to Cao Jiao, and after concocting a plan to let Hong Qi win Cao Jiao's trust, he discussed some ways to exchange information, which can be regarded as a complete negotiation of the matter.

After everything was done, it was already midnight, Tang Ge asked Cao Jiao to take Cao Jiao to Banpo Dolphin's hotel, but Cao Jiao categorically refused, saying that he was going to travel overnight, and he would spend the night in the wild when he was tired. Tang Ge was shocked, saying that the wasteland was full of dangers, and it was too dangerous to travel at night. But Hong Qi smiled confidently: "If the old beggar has no means to save his life, I'm afraid he won't know how many times he has died." It's just a night walk, it's nothing to me, an old man who cherishes his life. ”

Tang Ge saw that Hong Qi didn't seem to be a fake, so he reluctantly agreed to the old beggar's request to leave, and told the old beggar to pay attention to safety, and took Wang Dynasty Mahan and others to send the old beggar outside the tribe all the time, watching the old beggar disappear into the night with a steady pace, Tang Ge walked home with a sigh.

Two days after the old beggar left, the autumn hunt officially began, and the hunters of the Banpo dolphin, double hook and Beishan tribes were fully armed early in the morning, packed up large bags of equipment, and prepared to rush to the hunting site, Tang Ge was also one of them.

In front of the tribe, Tang Ge said goodbye to Ah Liang, Qingguo and Xiangxiang.

"Qingguo, in my absence, you must take care of Brother Liang and Xiangxiang. Don't look at Brother Liang's age, but there are more things to worry about than Xiangxiang, you have to pay special attention to this. Tang Ge said earnestly.

Qingguo slapped her small breasts with a "bang", and said confidently: "You just have to go to the autumn hunt with confidence, I will definitely take good care of Brother Liang and Xiangxiang, and I will ensure that there will be no problems." ”

Tang Ge smiled with relief, Qingguo now completely accepts the existence of Ah Liang's "elder brother", and the relationship between him and Ah Liang is not ordinarily good, usually as long as Tang Ge is not there, the two of them are definitely sticking together. So handing over Ah Liang to Qingguo, Tang Ge is also the most assured.
