Chapter 68: Blind Long Fei
Xu Hai took Baili Liang to a small courtyard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There were only two of them in the most remote part of the whole compound, and there was a small vegetable garden at the door, fenced off, and an old man was sitting in a chair basking in the sun.
"Uncle Long, I brought a good apprentice to your old man!" Xu Hai stepped forward respectfully.
"Get out! Don't beat my mind, I'm not going to make crossbows for you bandits, absolutely not! Hearing Xu Hai's voice, Long Fei jumped up violently, making a driving motion, his eyes bulging outward, and he described it as terrifying.
"Uncle Long, this is a good boy, different from last time! Don't be angry, it's not good to be angry. That's it, Xiaobai, you accompany Uncle Long, it's almost noon, I'll send someone to send some wine, meat and food, you can accompany Uncle Long to eat. For Long Fei's anger, Xu Hai's face did not change, and he glanced at Baili Liang.
Baili Liang nodded, but he didn't approach Long Fei, and stood at the entrance of the courtyard and watched Xu Hai's back disappear.
Long Fei sat back in the chair, and his appearance returned to the demeanor of Baili Liang when he came in, leisurely.
"Uncle Long, my name is Ding Xiaobai, take care of me." Baili Liang can't stand it, it can't be just like that.
"Get out!" Long Fei heard that the young man was polite, and his attitude eased a lot, but he was not welcome.
Baili Liang saw that there was a stool at the door, so he moved it and sat down near the old man, thinking about how to speak. Since Long Fei was invited by Huo Guang, they are in the same village, so they naturally know Huo Guang very well, if he said that he was Huo Guang's brother, how would Long Fei react? Is it trust or rejection? Judging from the conversation between Long Fei and Xu Hai just now, Long Fei did not sell Xu Hai's account, what kind of attitude did he have towards Huo Guang? Because Long Fei's attitude towards Huo Guang is likely to directly affect Long Fei's attitude towards him.
"I've seen Aunt Liu, you're from Longjia Village." Baili Liang finally spoke, he thought for a long time, and decided not to mention Huo Guang directly.
"Which Aunt Liu?" Long Fei was stunned, he also seemed to be thinking about something, and it took a long time before he spoke.
"The aunt who often comes to the city to sell vegetables also met this morning, and the fifth hall master asked Aunt Liu to catch all the chickens and ducks at home." Baili Liang paused, and felt the need to explain his identity, "I disguised myself as a woman and went into the city with my mother-in-law to deliver fish, and I was forcibly bought by the master of the fifth hall and said that I wanted to be a maid for my wife, and I didn't pretend to be a woman anymore, and they refused to let me go." Uncle Long, I'm not from the Hong Gang, just a small person. ”
"Hmph, do you think I'll believe you if you make up a story?" Long Fei's eyes rolled, and his originally terrifying eyes became even more terrifying, "Don't bother, I won't be fooled!" ”
"I don't know how to make up stories, Uncle Long, if you don't believe me, I can't help it." Baili Liang is not in a hurry.
"Since you have seen the people of our Longjia Village, you should tell me about the appearance of that Aunt Liu!" Long Fei spoke after a long time.
Baili Liang described it, and also said the appearance of several other aunts in Longjia Village.
"It's them, it's them!" Long Fei sat up straight in the chair excitedly, his fingers knocked on the chair handle restlessly, and after a while, he turned his head to Baili Liang, "I told your people, if you dare to touch the people of our Longjia Village, I will die!" I dare to blind my own eyes, I am not afraid of death! ”
"You pricked your own eyes?" Baili Liang was surprised.
"What do you do with my eyes without stabbing me? I, Long Fei, have no eyes, and I can believe in that kid Long Guang! There are no beads in the eyes! The old man suddenly beat his chest and cried.
Baili Liang looked at the old man uneasily, feeling very uncomfortable. Is Huo Guang really a bad guy? But after getting along for so long, why didn't he see it, it was simply unprovoked! When he saw that the old man had turned from crying to coughing, he stepped forward and patted the old man on the back. Long Fei's hand drove his head back, obviously not easy to make, he was thin and weak, and Baili Liang still helped him pat him on the back.
Long Fei coughed for a while, slowly eased, and slumped into the chair again.
"I'll get you some water."
Baili Liang walked into the house, the water in the teapot was still warm, and he poured a bowl and brought it to Long Fei.
Long Fei didn't refuse, but he didn't seem to be able to hold the bowl steadily, Baili Liang helped him, and he drank the water in the bowl.
"Uncle Long, don't worry, the people of Longjia Village have not been harassed, our Baicao Village is often robbed by the Hong Gang, but Longjia Village has always been safe. The chickens and ducks that Aunt Liu and the others sent this morning, the five hall masters all gave silver, and our fish also gave silver. ”
Baili Liang's voice was not in a hurry, nor was there any waves, he put the bowl back and continued to sit with Long Fei.
"You...... What is your name? Long Fei sighed and asked slowly.
"Ding Xiaobai, you can also call me Baili Liang. Ding Xiaobai was picked up by my mother-in-law when I was a man and a woman, because they have a little sister named Ding Xiaorou. I like the name Ding Xiaobai a lot, and I also told the helpers that my name is Ding Xiaobai. Baili Liang had already reported his name before, probably the old man was angry at that time and didn't remember it, he said it quite naggingly a few times.
"Well, Xiaobai, a good name. …… I don't care if you deceive people or not, I won't make a crossbow for the Hong Gang if I die! Long Fei emphasized again.
"I don't want to make them either, no way, I can't get out of the city. Madame said that if I walked out, she would immediately report to the government and let the government arrest me as a soldier! ”
"That's fine, it's better to be a soldier than a bandit! Wait, you can make crossbows too? ”
"Well, I learned from someone before, a crossbow I made myself was discovered by my wife, and I leaked my mouth for a while, and my wife knew that I would make a crossbow, and she refused to let me go." Baili Liang wanted to refute Long Fei, these days, the soldiers are no different from the robbers, the little king drove away the entire village of Fengyang Village, how different is the behavior from the robbers! But the old man was old, and his words couldn't change the stubborn old man.
"So, you're willing to make them a crossbow?" Long Fei got angry again, "These are all bandits who kill people without blinking!" If you make a crossbow, aren't you helping them do harm! Heaven is intolerable, young man! ”
Baili Liang didn't think so far, but he couldn't find the words to refute it, he was speechless for a while, and he didn't speak for a long time.
At this time, someone sent a food box, the aroma of wine and food tickled his heart and lungs, Baili Liang swallowed saliva, he didn't eat much when he went out in the morning, and now he is very hungry. The person who came put down the food box and left, and before leaving, he respectfully said that the master of the six halls would use it slowly.
"I knew you were lying, you were obviously the hall master of the bandits, you got out of me!" Long Fei wants to drive people out again.
Baili Liang was afraid that he would knock over the food box, so he moved the box farther away, went in and moved a small table out, put the wine and food on the table one by one, and poured a glass of wine for Long Fei.
"Uncle Long, if you want to drive me away, you have to wait for me to finish eating! Don't worry, I won't learn how to build a crossbow from you. The six hall masters have just been sealed by the gang masters, and you must know that they only have five hall masters after staying in the Hong Gang for so long. Baili Liang handed a pair of chopsticks into Long Fei's hand and moved the table to him, "I'm hungry, aren't you hungry?" ”
