Chapter 4 Refuge
Although the proprietress didn't understand what she meant, without the hindrance of the shopkeeper, she listened to Xiao Du's words surprisingly. He didn't even ask a word more, just guarded the suitcase and waited under the lamp.
Just waiting for the oil lamp to boil out and the light to go out, Xiao Du suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her hand in the dark, "Go!" ”
When he went out, Xiao Du grabbed the suitcase and threw it through the courtyard wall.
Then he pulled the proprietress into the front hall.
The oil lamp in the front hall had long been extinguished, and Xiao Du didn't light the lamp, but only quickly removed a door panel, turned sideways, and whispered to the door:
"It's done!"
A figure flashed in from outside the door, and just as the man was about to speak, Xiao Du had already clenched his fists with both hands and slammed it on the back of his head.
He closed the door again, and then went to the counter in the darkness, struck a match, refilled the oil, and lit the wick.
"Ahh The proprietress saw the situation clearly and covered her mouth violently.
Xiao Du twisted his face to look at her, and said word by word: "You said that you want to fly away with me." I'm not going to let my women worry all day. I killed the shopkeeper. However, as long as you don't say it, then the person is the one he killed! As he spoke, he kicked the man he had just knocked unconscious.
The proprietress looked sideways with trembling eyes, only to find that it was a thin Taoist priest lying on the ground.
Xiao Du stared at the proprietress for a moment, "I just ask, will you come with me?" ”
The proprietress looked at him for a long time, and nodded busily: "Go!" Come on! Go from behind! ”
"No, go through the main entrance!"
Xiao Du said in a deep voice, and then removed the door panel.
Hearing the sound of banging outside, he hurriedly pulled the proprietress over and whispered a few words.
The proprietress seemed to be hard-hearted towards him, and without the slightest hesitation, she rushed straight out of the door and shouted: "Murder......
Hearing the noisy footsteps from far and near, Xiao Du took one last look at the Taoist on the ground, and was about to go out. The man suddenly looked up, "What's your name?" ”
Xiao Du turned his head and looked down at his back and was silent.
The Taoist priest suddenly laughed dryly: "Hehe, I, Ling Feng, have been fighting geese all year round, but I never wanted to be pecked by geese." Little brother, you are such a good means! ”
"There will be no time in the future."
Xiao Du finally put down a sentence, stepped out, saw several figures running from the street, hurriedly grabbed the proprietress who was still yelling, and ran into the alley next to the courtyard wall......
"That's the end of the story." Du Hanzhong was still rocking in the rocking chair, but he squinted at me: "Is there anything you want to ask?" ”
I said, "I want to hear the second half." ”
Du Hanzhong raised his hand and scratched his nose, "This ...... It's not that you can't, but it's not earned by hard work, and you won't take it......"
"Smack!"
I patted the solid wood sofa under my buttocks, looked directly at him and said:
"Don't you think you're insulting me by fooling me with this little trick? You called me here, and I'm sure you don't just want me to hear this half story. ”
Du Hanzhong smacked his lips, "That's right, but I'm really not rare to talk to stupid people, you can come to me yourself." ”
I had already figured out the lighter, but before I could say it, he leaned back in his rocking chair and closed his eyes. What's even more strange is that at the same time as he closed his eyes, the rocking chair suddenly stopped moving.
Time stood still, and I couldn't hear anything but my own breath.
I stood up, glanced back at the back of the couch, the hole newly burned by cigarette butts, and nodded:
"Boss Du, it seems that the little Du in your story really stole a lot during his apprenticeship. This round light illusion, you really use it perfectly. It's a pity that you may have left this craft passed down from your parents for too long, and your hands are born, and you can't work. ”
"Buzz ......"
I pulled out my phone, and a line of information appeared on the screen: "What's wrong?" ”
I grinned and didn't reply, just smiled: "You're old, nostalgia is a common problem for most old people." However, such a retro layout here, but with such a large LCD TV, is it not a flaw? If I want to guess, it's not that you don't want to be perfect, it's just that time is in a hurry, and if you want to cover up something, you can't help but ignore some details. ”
I walked up to the TV, shook my hand, and took off the 50-inch LCD TV.
It should have some weight, but when I raised my hand, I felt light.
The TV was taken off, and there was only a nail on the background wall where the TV was originally hung, and there was no part of the TV hanging on it. And under the nail, a large black hole was revealed.
"Hehe, I found out that you kid is not your average chicken thief. You must have noticed something was wrong as soon as you walked through the door, right? That's why you're so impatient, right? Hahahaha......"
There was a strange laugh from the cave, except for some hollowness, which was exactly the same as the sound of Du Han Zhong before.
In the midst of laughter, I looked at it again, and everything in the room had changed.
Except for the 'sofa' I was sitting on, which has now become a bench covered with paper, everything else has also become paper.
Even the rocking chair, as well as the Duhan bell in the rocking chair, have become white paper paste!
"Is it interesting that you're talking so much?" I frowned.
A response came from the cave: "Come down, let's meet." When we meet, you'll know what's going on. ”
"Cheng, listen to you!" I gritted my teeth and plunged into the hole.
The hole is supposed to be a hidden gap in the wall, less than two feet wide, but there are steps on the left and right, one side up and the other side down.
The location of the hole is precisely in the middle of the steps, a small semi-suspended cement slab platform.
I stepped onto the platform, looked left and right in the dark, shook my head and sighed:
"This secret passage should be used to avoid disasters during the war, but unfortunately, judging from the traces of use, it was not fully used."
"Well, come down."
This hidden corridor is vacated by the gap between the wall wall and the stairs on the side of the old building, and it is really depressing to walk sideways in it.
I said in my heart, I should really coax Shi Fatzi to come one day, and when he is halfway through, he can't advance or retreat, so he will ...... The fat man who suffers from claustrophobia is no wonder if he is scared to death!
After four corners in a row, the old man's voice came again, clearer and more dull: "Whew...... You kid, your ability is not high, but your courage is really not small. How dare you come down. ”
Feeling that my feet were on the ground, I also breathed a sigh of relief, "Boss Du, if you don't turn on the lights when it's so dark, who will you save it?" ”
Before the words fell, a light suddenly lit up behind me, and before I could turn around, the front also lit up.
It was supposed to be a basement, about twice the size of a regular basketball court.
In the middle of the empty 'court', an old man with gray hair was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at me with a smile......
