Thirty years ago, Fenggang was just a small fishing village, and such fishing villages abound in the coastal areas.

After the great man's southern tour, Pengcheng ushered in rapid development, and Fenggang Town did not eat meat, but also drank a sip of broth.

... Fenggang Town...

Coming to Fenggang by bus, Wang Xu's first impression was that it was prosperous.

The A-goods clothing, DVDs, imitation watches, small electrical appliances, parallel mobile phones smuggled from Hong Kong Island have made Fenggang a super wholesale market.

Some of the Hong Kong goods smuggled from Hong Kong Island will be transshipped here and sold to all parts of the country.

Wang Xu was dressed in a white-gray monk's robe, wearing a string of prayer beads on his wrist, looking at the address written on the back of Tang Niu's photo and left before Tang Niu went up the mountain.

"86 Fengqiao Street!"

Wang Xu walked out of the station with the address and asked a taxi carrying passengers: "Donor, do you know where Fengqiao Street is?" ”

"Maple Bridge Street?"

The taxi driver was a young man, and after thinking about it, he shook his head slightly, and replied: "Is there a place, I am from Fenggang, why haven't I heard of it?" ”

"Haven't heard?" Wang Xu frowned slightly, the address was Fenggang Town, Fengqiao Street, this news could not be fake.

After all, Tang Niu was only ten years old when he went up the mountain, and this news was confirmed.

It is impossible for Tang Niu to think that he would betray Shaolin thirty years later when he was ten years old and confess with a fake address.

"Hey, thirty years!" Wang Xu suddenly froze, and a little understood what was going on.

Thirty years ago it was 1970, and now it's 2000, a generation away.

For such a long time, it has also experienced reform and opening up in the middle, and Fenggang Town can't change its appearance.

With the address in his hand, Wang Xu said goodbye to the taxi guy and found an old man who wholesaled CDs to ask.

Half an hour later, Wang Xu stood in front of an apartment with more than 20 floors and a little old.

Thirty years ago, this was Fengqiao Street, the vicissitudes of life, and today, thirty years later, Fengqiao Street is not visible, only this Fengqiao apartment.

With the sound of drums, a fierce general rushed out of the white horse slope. When I looked up, I saw that the red phoenix eyes, the silkworm eyebrows, and the red rabbit BMW under the crotch were really majestic..."

The Fengqiao apartment is relatively old, it looks like it should be more than ten years old, and in the guard room at the door, there is an old man who listens to the commentary.

Wang Xu looked at the old man, and the old man half-squinted, looking as if he was asleep.

"Monk, what are you looking at?" The old man, who was suspected of being asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.

Wang Xu was speechless for a while, and the old man looked at him and was not young, how could he still talk so hatefully.

"Amitabha, old donor, do you know Tang Youde, who lived at No. 86 Fengqiao Street thirty years ago?" Wang Xu clasped his hands together and asked with a kind attitude.

"Tang Youde?"

The old man looked at Wang Xu twice and asked, "I know, what are you looking for him?" ”

Wang Xu had a score as soon as he heard it, and said: "I am a Shaolin disciple, and Tang Niu, the son of Tang Shizhu, is a senior brother, and Tang Niu asked me to bring a message to my family." ”

"Tang Niu, oops, if you don't say it, I forgot about him, this kid has a hard life, I want to be back then..."

The old man wanted to say something, but finally shook his head and didn't say anything, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, what are you talking about, Room 1221 on the twelfth floor, you can go up quickly." ”

"Old donor, has Tang Niu ever come back?" Wang Xu didn't leave, but asked again.

The old man shook his head slightly, and the whole action did not hesitate.

Wang Xu nodded, Tang Niu didn't seem to have come back yet, or he came back to avoid the janitor.

The former is more likely, after all, Tang Niu escaped from Shaolin Temple, and when he left, he didn't have a degree and ID card on him, so it was impossible to be faster than him by train.

"Old donor, look what this is."

Wang Xu took out the amnestic from his arms, and when the old man looked up, he quickly pressed the elimination button, and said, "You have been guarding the door, no one has ever come up, and no one has looked for Tang Youde." ”

Swish!!!

The red light flashed, and when the old man came back to his senses, he forgot everything just now.

Wang Xu kept walking, and the Fengqiao apartment had two old-fashioned elevators that could carry him up to the 12th floor.

On the twelfth floor, you will find a two-meter-wide corridor facing the windows on one side and the residents on the other.

When the family walked down to the middle position, they saw the house number of room 1221.

This house is no different from the others, with a door god on the door, couplets on both sides, and curtains drawn inside.

I rang the doorbell, but there was no response, and it seems that the doorbell has long been broken.

The next moment, before he could knock on the door, the door opened from the inside, and out came an old lady in her sixties and seventies, carrying a basket of vegetables.

"You, you..." Seeing Wang Xu in a monk's robe, the old lady said two of you in a row, and she was about to fall backwards before she took a breath.

Wang Xu was startled, and quickly stretched out his hand to hold the old lady and asked, "Auntie, are you okay?" ”

"Tang Niu, are you back?"

The old lady pulled Wang Xu excitedly, with tears in her eyes, and cried: "It's all bad for my mother, at that time, there was a food shortage at home, and I couldn't support you, so I sent you to Shaolin Temple, don't blame my mother!" ”

"Auntie, you misunderstood, I'm not Tang Niu, I'm Tang Niu's junior brother." Wang Xu has information about Tang Niu, who went up the mountain in 1970, and there are seven brothers and sisters in the family, and life is very hard.

Because there were too many children, it was beyond the family's ability to raise them, and Tang Niu, who was the third child, was sent to Shaolin.

"You're not Tang Niu?"

Hearing Wang Xu's words, the old lady couldn't turn around, and said confusedly: "What about Tang Niu?" ”

"Senior Brother Tang Niu hasn't come back yet, I'm here to fight the front station, and he won't arrive for a while." When Wang Xu said this, he was ninety percent sure that Tang Niu didn't come back, but for the sake of that one percent chance, he still said: "Auntie, can you let me go in and have a look?" ”

"Okay, the old woman will make you tea, now the family is better, and the children are promising!" The old lady took Wang Xu's hand and entered the door, constantly asking about Tang Niu's situation.

Wang Xu had the heart to tell the truth and told the old lady that Tang Niu had become a traitor, and he had come to arrest Tang Niu and return to Shaolin to be punished.

But seeing the black-and-white photos in the living room, as well as the spiritual seat with the three characters Tang Youde written on it, Wang Xu hesitated for a moment and still didn't tell the truth.

"Senior Brother Tang Niu is very good, he is more motivated, and the masters also like him very much. You asked Tang Niu why he went down the mountain, this is a long story, didn't Tang Niu behave well, the abbot master had the heart to let him come to Pengcheng to establish a branch temple, and then Tang Niu Senior Brother was also the abbot. ”

Wang Xu told a white lie, and he couldn't bear to tell the old woman that Tang Niu had already caused a big disaster, and he might have to be imprisoned in Shaolin for the rest of his life.

Hearing these white lies, the old woman was convinced, and said yes again and again.

Being a parent is like this, thinking about their son, always like to think about the good.

But it's okay to save Wang Xu a lot of words, after all, lying is also very tiring.

"Auntie, I'm going to wait for Senior Brother Tang Niu here, do you think it's inconvenient for me to stay?" Wang Xu walked around the room a few times, the old woman's house is not small, although it has a long history, it is a serious three-bedroom living room, and there is a kitchen with a balcony.

Pushing open a few bedrooms, they looked at one room occupied by the old woman herself, and both rooms were empty.

There are beds and cabinets in the empty room, and as long as you add some bedding, you can live in it, which is very in line with Wang Xu's requirements.

"It's convenient, it's definitely convenient, the children are all older, and they won't come back once in ten days and half a month, you can live here as long as you want." Although the old woman is old, her eyes are not deaf, her ears are not dazzled, and she looks quite energetic.

After a while, the old woman brought the futon and wanted to make the bed for Wang Xu.

Wang Xu hurriedly refused, just took the futon and made it himself, and wondered if Tang Niu would go home.

Tang Niu went to Shaolin at the age of ten, and he must have memories of his family.

He defected from Shaolin this time, and if he could escape the siege, he would probably go home to see.

Because most of the monks on the mountain, especially the young disciples of the Xingzi generation, although they don't say it, they still miss home in their hearts.

It is precisely because there is no home and the warmth of home is lost that home becomes more important.

Wang Xu felt that as long as Tang Niu could escape, even if he knew that it was dangerous, he was very likely to come to see his parents, even if it was far away.

After all, after betraying the Shaolin Temple, Tang Niu had nothing but this family.
