Chapter Seventy-Six: Strange Villagers
After breakfast, Xu Ran and Lan Ying went out to buy something together, and then discussed the bar.
Now that he has started to arrange the affairs of the bar, I believe that in two days, Lan Ying will be able to go back to China.
But this time he had a bad premonition. I don't know if it's because of the peacock's eyes, or because of Huang Jing.
In short, his heart was a little restless.
But seeing Sister Ying so happy, he quickly put this kind of thought behind him.
Lan Ying took Xu Ran and went to a nearby amusement park, and the two played until the afternoon before returning home. On the way, she also bought some vegetables and said that she had to cook them herself.
And Xu Ran was idle on the sidelines and began to reply messages to Uncle Li.
Now that Uncle Li has contacted Ge Yunheng, he has arranged an opportunity to secretly send Uncle Li and Wei Yan back to China.
As he was sending the last message, Xu Ran's mobile phone rang.
At first glance, it was a number of dozens of digits, and Xu Ran didn't have to think about it to know who called.
As soon as Cao Cao is said, Cao Cao will arrive.
Of course, the person who came was Ge Yunheng, but when he answered the phone, he found that Ge Yunheng's side was very noisy.
"Lao Ge!" Xu Ran asked suspiciously.
"Of course it's me." Ge Yunheng's loud voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Did you call me for something?" Xu Ran said impatiently.
"You still dare to ask me, let me ask you, where are you now, what is going on with that guy Wei Yan." Ge Yunheng said to Xu Ran dissatisfied.
"We are abroad now, Wei Yan was injured by a group of people of unknown origin, and now he is recuperating." Xu Ran said.
"You just said the front, I already know the back, if he hadn't called me, I really didn't know that you were abroad, you hurry up and tell me what the hell is going on." Ge Yunheng urged.
Xu Ran thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Do you know that in the past, there was a non-governmental organization called Peacock Eye. ”
"I know, punish evil and promote good, a non-governmental organization with a sense of justice." Ge Yunheng said: "What's wrong! What does this have to do with your trip to a foreign country? ”
"This time I'm here for that organization." Xu Ran said.
Ge Yunheng asked in disbelief: "That organization, does it really exist?" ”
"I don't know, there was a series of accidents before I got to that place, but I suspect this one has something to do with her."
"Who?" Ge Yunheng asked.
"Huang Jing." Xu Ran said slowly.
"Oh," Ge Yunheng responded, "Then you don't have to sneak out of the country, you can go through formal channels, like this accident, you could have found the consulate to handle it." ”
"Yes, but I've recently been stared at by a mysterious organization, so I had to make this decision in order not to attract people's eyes."
"A mysterious organization?" Ge Yunheng on the other end of the phone paused, "What kind of mysterious organization can scare you like this." ”
"A mysterious and terrifying organization." Xu Ran said slowly.
"Organization? When you say that, I think they figured it out last time. ”
Xu Ran nodded and said, "Well, it should be right." ”
Speaking of this, Ge Yunheng's tone was a little impatient.
"Where are you now, I'll call a few people to protect you."
Xu Ran smiled faintly and said, "No need, I'm safe now." ”
"No, if your code is in the hands of the other party, then our country's secrets will be in danger.
Xu Ran also knew that he was also saying this for his own good, so he explained.
"You're so worried about me?" After a pause, he continued: "When I first edited the code, it was clearly stipulated that everyone was responsible for a copy, even if they got my code, it would be fine, because it would only work if the whole code was combined. ”
"Really don't need it" Ge Yunheng on the other end of the phone hesitated a little after hearing Xu Ran's words.
Xu Ran said in a firm tone: "No, don't you still believe me." ”
Then a burst of meat fragrance came to his nose, and he glanced back, but saw Sister Ying holding a plate of dishes on the table, looking at Xu Ran with a smiling face.
And he just nodded with a smile, and then said to Ge Yunheng on the other end of the phone.
"If you don't have anything else to do, I'll hang up."
"Good! You kid remember to be careful. ”
"Hmmm! You too" Xu Ran nodded heavily, and then hung up the phone.
At this time, Lan Ying had already brought out several dishes from the kitchen, all of which Xu Ran usually liked to eat.
And she was also very interested in not asking Xu Ran who was calling just now, because she knew that it was a matter between men.
After dinner, it was getting dark, and the crowd on the street was slowly becoming lively.
At eight o'clock, the two changed another set of clothes and went to the bar.
At this time, there were not many people in the bar, only one or two couples leaning against the window, talking and laughing.
And Lan Ying also took advantage of this spare time to announce a message to all the staff in the bar.
That is, she is going to return to her motherland, and she will also entrust this bar to others, but Lan Ying has already said that she should not panic, the person she entrusted is also a good friend of hers, the work arrangement, and salary payment are the same, everyone turned from worry to joy, and looked at Lan Ying gratefully.
And Xu Ran has been standing beside Lan Ying, and everyone can see that Sister Lan is going back to China with this man, and she can't help but say words of blessing.
Lan Ying just smiled and nodded, and then beckoned everyone to disperse.
Xu Ran stayed with Lan Ying for a total of three days, and on the morning of the fourth day, she drove Lan Ying's car to the airport, and finally sent Lan Ying to the plane under some reluctant gaze.
The sun soon hung overhead, and with a gallop, Xu Ran also arrived at a small village near the Golden Triangle.
Night had quietly arrived, and when Xu Ran stepped into the village, the air seemed to be a little heavier. He looked at everything around him and couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows.
The village was quiet, there were some dilapidated houses everywhere, and the moment Xu Ran stepped into the village, he seemed to feel countless pairs of eyes staring at him.
There was some trepidation, some anger, some pleading.
And Xu Ran finally saw that the eyes were shot out of the old houses around them.
It was some hungry villagers, each of them with some scars on their faces.
They stared at the person with those big eyes, and their expressions instantly changed three hundred and six degrees, and all kinds of different expressions appeared in front of them.
As soon as Xu Ran wanted to talk, the villagers saw that he was coming, so they immediately closed the doors and windows, as if they had seen a ghost dead, and quietly hid in the house.
Although Xu Ran didn't know what was going on here, he guessed it with just one look.
First of all, all the people who were lying at the window just now were old people supporting children, and they didn't see young and strong men at all. Secondly, their faces were very emaciated, almost skinny.
Judging from these two points, Xu Ran was sure that what they were doing must have something to do with the young people in the village.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Ran looked at a place and walked over.
He wasn't going to meddle with other people's business, because he wasn't a nosy person in the first place.
After walking five or six meters, suddenly there was a sound of the door opening behind him.
Xu Ran didn't pay attention to it, but walked straight ahead.
After a while, a familiar voice came from behind him.
"You're going to leave like this?"
It was Huang Jing's voice.
How did she end up here? No one was following you before?
Hearing this voice, Xu Ran suddenly frowned, then turned his face and looked in the direction where the voice came from.
I saw Huang Na leading the villagers and walking towards him slowly.
The expressions on their faces varied, some were smiling, some were bland, and some were slightly frightened.
He also held in his hands some things, which were the tools used to plough the fields in ordinary times, and they were of various sizes, some of them were carried by children, and some were held by old women.
They walked very slowly, each step seemed to have exhausted their strength, slowly weak and boneless, the whole person seemed weak, and the pair of black eyes exuded a bright light faintly with a meaning of pleading.
What are they doing here?
Huang Na walked over with an old woman in her hand, and the wooden stick she was holding in her hand was stuck on the ground, making a clattering sound.
As they moved forward, Xu Ran's face became even more hesitant.
Why is Huang Na with them?
Xu Ran's eyebrows were tightly wrinkled together, his eyes looked at them, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart. It's like during the Republic of China, when the villagers beat up traitors, although they looked very embarrassed on the outside, the things they held in their hands were very powerful.
Then they approached, and then Huang Na pointed to Xu Ran in front of her and said to the old woman on the side.
"Grandma! He's the friend I mentioned, and he's amazing. ”
After hearing Huang Na's words, the old lady shed tears with relief, and her burning eyes exuded the light of hope.
Like a pleading, like a longing.
She looked Xu Ran up and down, and then said excitedly: "Young man! ”
As he spoke, he knelt in front of Xu Ran.
"Please save my son and grandson."
As soon as these words came out, the other villagers also knelt down silently.
"Xu Ran, you can help them." And Huang Na also echoed on the side.
Xu Ran looked at them in confusion, not agreeing, not agreeing.
When he saw those pitiful eyes, his heart finally softened.
"What the hell is going on?" Xu Ran looked at Huang Na suspiciously.
Huang Na walked to Xu Ran's side.
"It's only been a few days since I've been here, so you might as well ask Granny Li, right, Grandma!" After speaking, she helped Granny Li up.
Xu Ran also motioned for the other villagers to stand up.
And Granny Li broke free of Huang Na's support and came from in front of Xu Ran.
"Thank you, young man, for being willing to help us."
Xu Ran looked at the slightly rickety old man and waved his hand, but didn't say anything.
Huang Na suddenly smiled, and her face was full of cuteness.
"Grandma! You can just tell Xu Ran, I'm sure he will help you, right! After that, he didn't forget to glance at Xu Ran.
"Good!" Granny Li's hands trembled with excitement.
Xu Ran looked at Huang Na in front of her, and always felt as if she had changed into a different person. She used to be a taciturn person.
