Chapter 58: Won't Find Me
In addition, the reason why You Wu was talking nonsense was also to test why the other party suddenly left Beihai fifteen years ago.
This time, when he came to Camel Mountain to invite Ma Qihuang out of the mountain, Xia Jiahou repeatedly told him to invite the other party to pay attention to strategy, and first of all, to find out if the other party had any hidden secrets when he ran away from home. This is called, knowing each other and knowing oneself, and not being defeated in a hundred battles.
Who knows, Ma Qihuang didn't have any expression on his face, especially when he heard "Chairman Xia" praise himself and the like, he snorted in his nose, looking very disdainful.
You Wu immediately realized that the other party was not a person who liked to listen to praise, so he changed his words and continued, "Chairman Xia said that Ma Qihuang has been going to Camel Mountain for fifteen years, relying on the mountains and eating mountains, and his life must be very hard, so I asked if the Martial Arts Association has sent someone to condole over the years..."
"I said, I went once, it was eight years ago. After that, I never went again. ”
When Chairman Xia heard this, he immediately became angry, and he said why didn't he go later? I said, the Armed Forces Association has been lacking in funds all these years, and even can't even pay the rent, so how can I have the money to buy things and condolences. ”
After hearing this, Chairman Xia sighed and said, no matter how hard you are, you can't be bitter about the old comrades, especially those who have made contributions to the Beihai Martial Arts Association. So, under the arrangement of Chairman Xia, the Beihai Civil Martial Arts Association re-established its archives and bought pension insurance and medical insurance for all its members. Everyone is very grateful to Chairman Xia..."
"Well, that's good."
Ma Qihuang nodded.
What You Wu said about the problem of insufficient funding for the Beihai Civil Martial Arts Association is actually true.
The martial arts association was very popular in the eighties, influenced by movies such as "Shaolin Temple" and "Kapok Robe", it was really popular, and various martial arts association training courses came into being, and teenagers who went to Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts also abounded. Beihai City holds several martial arts competitions and martial arts exhibition competitions every year. Once, Ma Qihuang was famous at that time, and he was often invited to perform kung fu everywhere, and also opened a museum to teach apprentices.
After the 90s, martial arts began to decline, sanda and actual combat began to become popular, and martial arts were criticized, saying that they were fancy and useless. In this case, the Martial Arts Association will not have a good life, no one will watch the competition, and it will not be able to attract sponsorship, and it has been a long time, just like You Wu said, he can't even pay the rent.
Of course, what Xia Jiahou became the honorary chairman of the Martial Arts Association and the like is all nonsense.
"When I was applying for pension insurance and medical insurance for Ma Ye, I ran into trouble, because you were not in Beihai, so you couldn't go through the procedures. After all, you need to bring your ID card to go. Therefore, Chairman Xia specially arranged for me to come to Huoshan to find you..."
You Wu's face was sincere, "I came by car, the car is at the foot of the mountain, is it convenient for you to go back with me?" You need to go back to make up for an ID card, and then go to the civil affairs hall and sign it. ”
You Wu is very proud of himself, his level of performance on the spot is too high, and he is almost moved by himself.
Handling endowment insurance and medical insurance, this is a piece of cake, if Ma Qihuang really intends to go back with him, of course, take him to go through these procedures immediately. These little things are actually very important, and it is easy to impress the other party.
Who knows, when Ma Qihuang heard that You Wu was going to drive him back to Beihai, his face suddenly changed, "No, absolutely not." Don't go back to Beihai! ”
The other party's expression was panicked and nervous, and the majestic and calm expression just now was gone.
You Wu couldn't help but think of the scene eight years ago, and he sincerely invited the other party to return to Beihai, and the other party was also immediately panicked.
What exactly is the reason?
Perhaps, it wasn't for the sake of meditation and cultivation, fifteen years ago, Ma Qihuang must have been stimulated by a certain stimulus, so he left Beihai to live in seclusion in Camel Mountain.
You Wu said secretly in his heart.
Of course, since Ma Qihuang is like this, he doesn't dare to mention the matter of letting the other party follow him back to Beihai to "handle pension insurance and medical insurance".
What is hidden in it, don't rush, you need to take your time.
"Ma Ye, I really don't understand," You Wu said the doubts in his heart, "If I heard me correctly, you just called this toad Master, right..."
When he looked at the place where the toad was crouching, the toad disappeared.
"Yes, it's my master."
Ma Qihuang smiled, "My master enjoyed the delicious food you brought and found a place to rest." Let's not disturb it, you come with me. ”
Ma Qihuang led the way in front, and You Wu carried a large bag of things, followed behind him, and walked towards the deep mountains.
After a long period of winding paths, the two came to a very narrow hole.
This hole, go straight in, you can't get in at all. It needs to be turned sideways, almost hard, to be tucked in.
You Wu followed Ma Qihuang with great difficulty, and after entering from the entrance of the cave, his eyes suddenly lit up.
It seems to have come to another world, the flowers are fragrant and the birds are singing, the trees are lush, and the strange rocks are craggy, there is a stream of water flowing down from a cliff, and from a distance, it looks like a mirror is hung on the cliff.
"What a paradise!"
You Wu couldn't help but blurt out.
Ma Qihuang said proudly, "This place is very secret, even if he (she) comes to Camel Mountain, he will not find me." ”
After speaking, he suddenly thought of something, and his face suddenly changed, and he actually grabbed You Wu's collar and said sharply, "Don't tell anyone about this place, otherwise, I will let you die without a place to bury." ”
You Wu was startled when he saw that the other party suddenly turned his face, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Ma Ye, I have never been to Camel Mountain at all, and I have never seen Ma Ye." ”
Ma Qihuang let go of his hand, with a look of remorse on his face, as if he regretted leading You Wu to this place, he muttered, "If he (she) finds this place, how can it be good, how can it be good..."
There was a frightened look on his face, as if he was terrified.
Seeing this scene, You Wu guessed that the other party must be afraid of someone, and he left Beihai and came here fifteen years ago. And, after arriving here, he was not at ease, for fear that the other party would find him, so he specially found this excellent place to refuge.
He was immediately puzzled.
Fifteen years ago, Ma Qihuang's kung fu was unrivaled in Beihai, who was he afraid of?
In order to avoid that person, he came to this barren mountain, and he came here for fifteen years.
No wonder when he mentioned letting the other party go back to Beihai, the other party panicked, it turned out that he was afraid of that person.
Although You Wu was curious, he didn't dare to ask. I had to swear again, "If I You Wu leaked even the slightest bit of news, I would rather be slapped to death by Ma Ye..."
After repeated reassurances, You Wu continued to smile bitterly, "Actually, I got lost after entering the camel mountain, and I couldn't tell the direction, and even if I asked me to look for this place, I couldn't find it." So, Ma Ye, you can rest assured. ”
"Well, you're right, this place is really hard to find."
Ma Qihuang's face softened, remembering that the other party was entrusted by Chairman Xia to help him with pension insurance and medical insurance, and he was kind, but he actually grabbed someone's collar, which was really inappropriate.
"You're a guest, and I'm going to entertain you."
Ma Qihuang took You Wu into a cave under the cliff, where there were stone tables, stone benches, stone bowls, and wooden chopsticks. Next to it is the waterfall, which is very similar to the water curtain cave in Journey to the West.
Ma Qihuang picked up a stone bowl, took some water from the waterfall, and handed it to You Wu, "You drink some water first, and the meal will be served in a while." ”
Meals will be served in a while?
You Wu was puzzled in his heart, took the stone bowl, and took a sip of water, which was really clear and sweet.
At this time, I saw Ma Qihuang standing in front of the entrance of the cave, and a strange sound came out of his mouth one after another, like a long whistling.
