Chapter 434: Back

"You mean the painting has traveled through time?" Zhao Heizi stared at me with wide eyes.

I nodded, "Either this painting has crossed, or the strange man who sells fish has crossed, in short, this is a very mysterious question, but now if we don't explore clearly, we can also put it down and think about other problems first." ”

I chatted with Zhao Heizi for a long time, and he didn't have any valuable insights, so I went back first.

Wang Haitang was reading in the bedroom, she actually left the door open, I stood at the door and watched her read quietly, and my heart was barely relaxed, as long as she didn't say that she was going back to her hometown, the rest would be easy to solve.

"Begonia, how's the book?" I asked with a smile.

Wang Haitang raised his head to look at me and replied lightly, "It's okay." ”

I went in and tried to talk to her and ask her how she was at home today, but she didn't want to talk to me about it and kept her head down and read.

I was a little embarrassed, like a wooden stake here, and I had to leave in a huff.

After washing, I poured a cup of hot water, and suddenly remembered that my family hadn't bought tea for a long time, should I ask someone to buy some good tea another day, and then bring some to visit Ma Yuan? By drinking tea and chatting, get some valuable clues from him?

Actually, I knew it would be difficult, the old fox was very cunning, and I couldn't get it out of my way, and since he was willing to let it go, it meant that he deliberately wanted to let me know and guide me into another trap.

It doesn't matter, just try his depth.

Before going to bed, I meditated and practiced again, and You Lao said that you must not be lazy, and you must meditate and practice when you have time, which is beneficial and harmless to yourself.

I lay down on the bed, and soon I fell asleep in a daze.

The night is as quiet as a lake without the wind.

Before I knew it, I had come to a lively alley, surrounded by vendors and passers-by buying groceries, and the faint sunlight overhead, which was supposed to be a morning market.

I was weaving through the crowd and not knowing what I was going to do, surrounded by the sounds of vendors and customers haggling, and the sounds of chickens, ducks and geese.

As I walked all the way, this morning market seemed to have no end, I had been walking for a long time and there was no end in sight.

At this moment, there were three or four people to my left, and I saw a huge, large hat, and I was so cold that I immediately stood on my feet.

It's the weirdo who sells fish!

The familiar big hat, with a thick coat on his body, his body was slightly rickety.

He had his back to me, but at that moment he seemed to sense that I was watching him, and he quickly walked forward.

"Please stop!" I shouted, and quickly pushed through the crowd and followed, but my limbs were weak, and I couldn't exert any strength at all, and it took a long time to lift my feet and barely take a small step.

The fish-seller was soon so far away from a dozen of me, and the hat he wore on his head was so conspicuous that he could be seen at a glance in the crowd.

I chased after him as hard as I could, using all my strength, and I wanted to shout so loudly that the people around me could help me stop him, but I couldn't make any sound.

With a single effort, I broke free from the dream again.

Surrounded by dim light, I was still lying in the familiar bedroom.

I sat up and touched my forehead, and there was a fine layer of cold sweat.

I grabbed my phone and looked at it, at 3:46, thinking back to the picture in the dream just now, it was so real, I could even clearly see the thickness of the coat on his body.

Just like last time, I was very close to him at first, but in the end I was pulled away by a long distance, and he seemed to be deliberately trying to attract my attention, and then quickly left.

It's not an escape, because he didn't run away in a panic, but his steps were much faster, if it was an escape, then why did he deliberately appear in front of me, he was confident, and I crossed the river by feeling the stones.

I sat on the edge of the bed for a long time and couldn't calm down, so I sat on the floor again and began to meditate and practice, trying to calm my emotions.

This feeling makes me very depressed, no matter what kind of demons and monsters I have encountered before, I have never had this feeling of panic and helplessness, and it is because of such a dream, my heart is racing, there is a very unconfident and very confused and anxious discomfort, this is all brought to me by the fish seller, he has defeated me psychologically, at least one chip.

I lay down again and picked up my phone to check the time, only to realize that I hadn't noticed that Man Man had sent me a picture two hours earlier, two movie tickets, at 8:45 p.m. at an international cinema in the city.

I ignored it, put down my phone and closed my eyes.

After the cultivation just now, my mood has calmed down a lot, and soon I fell asleep.

I was busy dealing with the hotel all day, and I went to two meetings in the afternoon, wearing a suit and leather shoes to pretend to be forced, which can make me very tired, I still like to usually look like a hanger, I can't help myself, people are floating in the rivers and lakes, I don't want to pretend to be forced.

It wasn't until 9 o'clock that I had time to have dinner with Zhao Heizi in the hotel's restaurant.

I gobbled up Zhao Heizi and made Zhao Heizi happy, "You eat slowly, if you eat too fast, it's not good for your health." ”

"You don't know how hungry I am, I can't even play on my phone during today's meeting, I have to take notes all the time, and there are so many cameras pointed at me, it's no different from going to jail." I grumbled as I stuffed my mouth with food.

"Normal, this is an occasion that you will have to deal with often in the future." Zhao Heizi smiled, and the words changed, "That Man Man didn't come to harass you again, did he?" ”

My mouth immediately stopped, and I slapped the table, "By the way, she also sent me a movie ticket last night, it was 8:45 tonight, I ignored it, but she didn't call me again." ”

Zhao Heizi shook his head, "I really can't imagine how chaotic these people's lives are, isn't she afraid of being discovered by Qian Siming, not only will she cut off her financial route, but it is estimated that Qian Siming will make her unable to stay in the city!" ”

"Women who worship money are willing to be other people's lovers, people, she is naturally unwilling to be lonely and unwilling to be bland, so they feel that excitement and adventure are much more interesting than obediently staying with old men to get money.

"Hahaha......" Zhao Heizi was amused by me, "You are really humorous, with you I feel that the first half of my life has been in vain, I used to be a very boring and boring person." ”

"It's a good thing to smile a lot, I hope you can bring you more joy when you are with me in the future." I smiled and chewed the food in my mouth.

After eating, there was nothing going on at the hotel, so I drove back home.

I didn't expect Wang Haitang to be sitting in the restaurant eating, and she fried herself a bowl of tomato and egg rice.

When I walked in, she took the initiative to greet me, "Cousin, you're back, have you eaten?" ”

Although she didn't smile, her tone was calm, and it seemed that she had recovered a lot.

"I've already eaten it, your skills are really good, you can make tomato and egg rice." I laughed and complimented.

She smiled and said nothing, and continued to eat the tomato and egg rice.

I sat down next to me and started talking to her without saying a word, trying to avoid the topics that made her sensitive, the things I talked to her, the weather, and so on.

She no longer kept her mouth shut, as she did last night, but simply answered the topic I had raised.

The ink painting suddenly flashed in my mind, and I coughed and said, "Begonia, I went to the bookstore to buy a book for you that day, and brought back an art bound book, there is an ink painting in it I think is quite strange, the text is not right, can I take it out for you to see?" ”

Wang Haitang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't know art, I've never painted ink painting, I don't understand." ”

"I'm not asking you to dissect this ink painting, I'm asking you to see if you've seen the characters on it or have other opinions."

She didn't refuse or nod, and just sat quietly in her chair.

I quickly went upstairs and took the book down, flipped to the ink painting and pushed it in front of her, "You see, the person on this ink painting is standing in a field wearing a coat and a hat, but with a poem "Cold River and Snow", do you think it is strange? ”

Wang Haitang's shoulders trembled slightly, grabbed the book with both hands, and muttered, "Dad, it's my dad......"

I was startled, "What, Begonia what did you just say?" ”

Wang Haitang raised his head to look at me, his eyes were full of tears, "The person in this painting reminds me of my father, he used to wear a hat and a hat in a shackle, and he also wore straw sandals to go to the river to catch fish, catch chickens and take them to the market to sell, and the money from the sale will buy me what I like." ”

I frowned and my heart was beating faster, "Did you say that Uncle had such a costume before?" ”

Wang Haitang nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, he often dresses like this to catch fish and chickens, no matter how cold the weather is and how cold the water is, as long as he can sell it at a good price to buy something for me, he will go without hesitation." ”

Wang Haitang choked and bit her lip sadly.

"Do you think the person on this painting is very similar to my uncle?"

"This is my father, I am too familiar with his back, maybe the coat is too heavy, his body will be slightly rickety, about that back, I also wrote an essay in junior high school, and the teacher also gave me an excellent one, read it out in front of the whole class."

Speaking of this, Wang Haitang lost control of his emotions and cried sadly on the table.
