Chapter 14 Seeing Him Rise to the Tower

I saw him raise a tall building, I watched him feast guests, and I saw his building collapse.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Liang Chen, who wanted to take advantage of his mother's bed at his grandmother's house, was deceived by Du Ruo after a few quick knocks on the door.

The alarm clock at half past seven at the head of the bed had not yet sounded, Liang Chen gritted his teeth, suppressed the rising breath of getting up, and scratched his hair a few times at random, waiting for Du Ruo's explanation. And Du Ruo was holding a few pieces of A4 paper full of words in his left hand, and a carton of milk in his right hand, with a smile on his face.

"What time is it, tell me what time it is." Liang Chen pointed to the bedside alarm clock and said, "Since the holiday, this is the first time I can sleep peacefully, do you know how rare this opportunity is?" Do you know how painful it is to go to bed at one o'clock in the morning and wake up at half past seven in the morning every day? Do you know? ”

"Brother Liang, Brother Liang, don't be angry! Take a look at my sincerity, brother. Du Ruo shook the milk in his hand and said.

"A bottle of milk."

"Of course not, you come out and see!" Du Ruo pushed open the bedroom door, pulled Liang Chen to the living room, and said, "This is the sincerity of my brother." ”

On the wooden coffee table in the living room was a carton of opened pure milk, and Du Ruo continued: "How is it, my brother is good to you!" Yesterday my uncle just sent the milk, brother, I brought it to you. ”

"Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief, you must have something to ask me." Liang Chen took the milk in Du Ruo's hand and said.

"We'll talk about it later, you hurry up and wash and change your clothes, at half past seven, let's take Uncle Shen's hitchhike to Shihe." Du Ruo pushed Liang Chen, who was drinking milk, to the door of the toilet, "You're hurrying"

When he went out, Liang Chen was a little surprised, surprised by what the black leather rogue Du Ruo was wearing today, Du Ruo was wearing an apricot-colored tweed coat today, of course, with his favorite black turtleneck sweater and black straight-leg pants, and a pair of pointed-toe casual leather shoes that he didn't know when he bought them. Compared with Du Ruo, Liang Chen looks like a working boy, with a blue down jacket with a tight zipper, versatile dark blue jeans, and black running shoes to wear casually, Liang Chen looks like a serious student.

While waiting for the car, Liang Chen gave Du Ruo a thumbs up with a smile and nodded his head again and again, Du Ruo asked him what he meant, and he didn't explain, as if he was taking revenge for his last Yongze incident.

At 7:35, a white Volkswagen Lavida stopped, and Uncle Shen opened the window and beckoned us to get in the car. Uncle Shen's full name is Shen Yizhi, a doctor in a small clinic in the village, known for his medical ethics, and his ancestors have handed down several prescriptions for treating headaches, brain fever, fever and colds, and is good at treating pediatric diseases, so he is famous far and wide.

Uncle Shen is quite talkative, not like a thrush like the nickname he used to gossip in the village. Along the way, it was Du Ruo, pulling east and west, north and south, only occasionally when the mobile phone sounded, the car was slightly quiet.

On the way, Liang Chen looked at Du Ruo's newly released business budget and the naïve risk estimation and prevention plan behind it, Liang Chen didn't know whether he was reading the political book or listening to the high-minded talk of the experts on the financial channel, and the A4 paper was full of answer-like words on the final exam papers, which made Liang Chen's mind dizzy.

He wanted to vomit a little, and he didn't want to trouble Uncle Shen to stop, so he had to open some car windows, and the cool breeze blew in with fresh air, which slightly controlled the vomiting in Liang Chen's heart. Along the way, the only thing he felt relieved about was the scenery on the road.

Under the control of the subtropical monsoon climate, the vegetation of Shihe is mostly evergreen broad-leaved forest, and bare forests are rare even in winter. In the early morning, on the hill a few hundred meters away, the lush woods are covered with a thin layer of mist, which is like the breath of nature! The mist is still flowing with the wind, as if it is a stream, and this stretching hill is its riverbed, the car drove forward, the mist seemed to flow into the river, the fog slowly became thicker, after a sharp bend, the car drove to the famous gourd mouth, the fog seemed to be sucked into the gourd, the gourd mouth mouth belly is wide, the fog came in like the morning exhaled white gas dissipated little by little, above the sky, the white clouds like fish scales poured into Liang Chen's eyes.

The clouds in the sky began to change with each bend.

The continuous turning made Liang Chen's dizziness intensify, and because of lack of sleep, he couldn't bear it anymore after all, Uncle Shen stopped the car at a fork in the road, Liang Chen quickly opened the car door, squatted at the intersection, and wanted to empty his stomach, but this morning he just drank some milk and ate a few mouthfuls of rice soaked in bone broth. After vomiting on an empty stomach, a large amount of bitter fluid is secreted in the mouth. Although Liang Chen's body was much more comfortable after vomiting, he mentally seemed to have done a roller coaster, and he seemed a little sluggish.

Liang Chen opened the mineral water handed over by Du Ruo and rinsed his mouth. Back in the car, Uncle Shen said a few words of concern before driving towards Shihe.

After getting out of the car, Liang Chen breathed a long sigh of relief, and there was a feeling in his heart that he would be left behind, and Du Ruo still hadn't told Liang Chen what he was doing in Shihe. After getting out of the car, Du Ruo only cared about making a phone call, asking the mysterious person on the other end of the phone inexplicable questions, like a gangster connector. The fatigue after motion sickness did not disappear due to the short rest after getting out of the car, Liang Chen was not in the mood to ask Du what he was doing, just sat at the door of Nuokang Pharmacy and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Ten minutes later, Du Ruo ended the call and shouted loudly that Liang Chen should leave.

Liang Chen breathed a sigh from the dantian and followed Du Ruo with strong spirits. On the way, Du Ruocai made Liang Chen clear the purpose of the trip, and he wanted to clarify the time and progress of the work with his other partner.

"Who's the partner? I've never heard you mention it. Liang Chen asked.

"Xiao Shuang, be modest and say that you are the leader of the second year of high school, and if you are more high-profile, you will say that you are the one who holds the bull's ear in the first and second year of high school."

"Is it so powerful? I haven't even heard of my name, the boss of our school is not Tan Hongfei in the third year of high school! Liang Chen said.

Du Ruo looked back at Liang Chen with some playfulness, and said mockingly: "Your seventh class of high school is the good doll of Shihe Middle School, the real child in the ivory tower, the head teacher watches, the school protects, how do you know that the canine teeth of the Jianghu forces are intertwined and intricate!" ”

"Then dare to ask Du Shaoxia what is his status in the rivers and lakes?" Liang Chen asked.

"Of course, it is Wu Song, a traveler in Liangshan Mountain, Zhang Guangtai, the divine power king in Old Man Li's book, Dharma Suqing, and the four major guardian kings on the top of Mingjiao's light, that is the boss's right-hand man and right-hand man!" After speaking, Du Ruo looked a little proud, and then said, "But from today on, my little mountain carving Du Sanye will set up his own door, establish another Weihu Mountain cottage in Shihe, and be the third master of Shihe." ”

When Du Ruo boasted, Liang Chen saw Qiu Nan waving not far away in the flow of cars and horses. Qiu Nan stood out in the crowd, surrounded by old grandparents, and she was the only one who looked youthful.

Seeing Qiu Nan coming, Liang Chen had a bad idea in his heart, and he was determined to avenge this morning's revenge, so he counted the time, waited for Qiu Nan to approach, and asked: "Then Du Sanye is considering robbing a lady who suppresses the village to increase the popularity of your Weihu Mountain." ”

"Rob." Du Ruo's voice really looked like a bandit who had been on the mountain for many years, "You must grab one, and you have to be beautiful, and you have to be worthy of my Third Master Du." ”

Liang Chen held back a smile, shook his head, signaled Qiu Nan behind him not to speak, and after rolling his eyes, he said, "I don't know if Qiu Nan is worthy of Du Sanye." ”

Du Ruo didn't rush to speak, frowned, and patted Liang Chen's shoulder, "Liang Zi, we've been fifteen years old!" I never thought that you were such a person, how could a woman like Qiu Nan be treated like this. ”

Liang Chen, who had not succeeded in the "treacherous scheme", shook his shoulders and shook off Du Ruo's hand, and said, "Come on!" If you see through it, you can see through it! Also drag some idioms. ”

Qiu Nan patted Du Ruo's spine with his hand, then put his hands behind his back and looked at Du Ruo with a smile. Qiu Nan combed a double ponytail today, and she was really cute in a small dress.

Du Ruo pretended to be a little surprised, and said with a big mouth: "Qiu Nan, when did you come." He pointed at Liang Chen again, "Liang Zi, your conscience is very bad." ”

Liang Chen replied, hehe, you didn't make much excuses.

"Well, Liang Zi is also joking. Do you have something to do with Shihe? Qiu Nan asked.

Du Ruo pulled his coat, straightened his waist, and said, "Didn't I tell you last time!" I started a business thing. ”

"Oh! Then get busy! I wasn't going to bother you to come to Shihe once, but let's talk about it when I do! It's my birthday today, so if you have time, come to my house for dinner! Saying that, Qiu Nan tilted his body to look at Liang Chen, and said mysteriously: "Liang Zi has someone you want to meet!" ”

Liang Chen was a little puzzled, who did he want to see? He just wanted to ask who it was, Du Ruo hurriedly said: "Not busy, not busy, we are honored to be invited by you, and I also want to meet the person Liang Zi wants to meet." ”

"That's okay, just give me a call when you come over, by the way, if you can't come, remember to send me a message." Qiu Nan instructed.

"I'll put the meal aside for a while, I'd like to ask." Liang Chen had a question mark on his face, "Who do I want to see?" ”

Qiu Nan smiled and said, "You'll know when you come, keep a little mystery, you guys hurry up and get busy." ”

After speaking, Qiu Nan pushed us and urged us to leave quickly.

Du Ruo said goodbye to Qiu Nan, led Liang Chen forward, and asked, "Liang Zi, when did you become so familiar with Qiu Nan." ”

Liang Chen was still thinking about the person Qiu Nan said, and he didn't notice what Du Ruo said, so he asked again what Du Ruo said.

"I said when did you and Qiu Nan become so acquainted, and the development is very fast!"

"Add QQ, and it's cooked after coming and going!"

"I'm going, you don't want to snatch love!"

"I'm going, you don't want to step on two boats, do you!"

······

Du Ruo and his partner made an appointment at the cocoa milk tea shop next to the school's new school gate, and as soon as he sat down, the two went straight to the point. Time ran very fast, almost an hour, the two seemed to have finished talking about everything, the whole process Liang Chen was in a fugue, sitting on the side and silent, thinking about the mystery of the Sphinx left by Qiu Nan, coupled with the mental malaise after motion sickness, Liang Chen only received some bits and pieces of scattered information.

Since the beginning of this year, Liang Chen has had two cognitive revolutions with Du Ruo, thinking that it was an unrealistic fantasy, but he didn't expect that now everything is ready and only the school is missing. In just a few words, all of Du Ruo's preparations seem to have been completed, and there are some small gifts for the people to recruit, the publicity plan to prepare······ Maybe Du Ruo can really succeed, Liang Chen thought.

On the way to Qiu Nan's house, suddenly a cold wind blew into Liang Chen's short circuit's mind, and he inexplicably remembered such a sentence - seeing him rise up a tall building, watching him feast guests, and seeing his building collapse.
