Chapter 490: The Old Man in the Warehouse
15 years ago
Xiaodou and Kang Ju passed by, although the person walked towards the west of the artificial island, but his attention was still focused on the woman behind him, and one thing that he had inadvertently realized just now lingered in Xiaodou's heart. The touch given to him by the woman's body, as well as the beautiful face, are intertwined, so that Xiaodou can't figure out the truth.
Shaking his head, Xiaodou stopped thinking about these inconsequential things and walked forward faster.
There was no one on the two-story board house and the dock in the distance, and the wind was howling and blowing Xiaodou's hair, he gently brushed the hair back of his head with his hand, and squinted at the balcony on the second floor of the board room, behind the clothes hanging there, he could faintly see that there seemed to be a heavy light umbrella on the ground.
Xiaodou was very strange, all the heavy light umbrellas he saw were neatly hung on the wall shelves, why did the umbrella be placed on the ground? Has it just been used?
Walking directly in the direction of the umbrella, Xiaodou didn't notice that there was a figure shaking in the warehouse next to him, it was a tall man he had never seen before, probably in his 50s, his hair and beard were gray, but the muscles on his body were prominent, and he looked good in spirit and strength.
The man is sorting through boxes and boxes of things in the corner of the warehouse wall, and this is his job today. These days, in order to catch up with the production of heavy light umbrellas, the warehouse has not been cleaned for a long time, the floor inside is damp, the smell is strong, and even the gaps between the boxes filled with dead fish and shrimp make people feel disgusting to look at.
After piling the boxes in a clean place, the man began to clean up the dead fish and shrimp into black garbage bags, perhaps trying to pull them to the lake to dispose of. This time, when he straightened up and relaxed a little, he saw Xiaodou passing by outside out of the corner of his eye.
The man immediately walked to the door of the warehouse and shouted at Xiaodou: "Hey! Who are you, lad? Where are you going? ”
Xiaodou stopped when he heard the voice, he turned his head and met the man's gaze towards this side, and in an instant, the man standing at the door of the warehouse let out a slight exclamation, and the man also took two steps backwards, as if he had seen a ghost.
The man called softly, "Nono... "......But he never dared to shout the name out loud, so he could only go down his throat with a lighter and lighter banquet."
Xiaodou's pupils, as bright as pearls, were still staring at this strange old man, as if waiting for him to report his name first.
After stabilizing his emotions, the elderly man shouted to Xiaodou, "My name is Convoy, and I am a fishing worker here. ”
"You can call me Xiaodou, I'm a guest who came to stay yesterday."
"Really? You came very late yesterday, and I didn't even see you at dinner. Yan Nuogu stepped forward, he wanted to get closer to Xiaodou and see if the young man's face was really the same as she remembered.
Yan Nuogu, who is in his 50s, has not good eyesight, nor is it bad, with a slight astigmatism. When the two of them were still a dozen steps away, he spoke again and said, "Xiaodou, which village are you from?" ”
"I live in the largest city in the south, and this time I came to see the abandoned fishing village on the north shore of the lake, but when we arrived at the shore of the lake, it was too late, and we only met Uncle Lee's boat, so we followed him to the artificial island for two days."
"Oh, I see, then you haven't seen our special product here, the Chongming Umbrella, right?" Convoy asked.
Xiaodou said: "I have seen it last night, it was Aunt Ye who took it out to show us, and there is a human bird painted under the umbrella, which is said to be Bifang Bird." ”
"What do you say? What is drawn on the umbrella that Xiaoye showed you?! Kanghong's tone suddenly brought a question, and his face became solemn.
Xiaodou didn't bother to notice his changes, but replied, "There is a Bi Fang bird painted on the umbrella." ”
"What about you...... Now are you going to check it out on the pier? The finished umbrellas made a few days ago are now hanging on the boat! The pattern under each umbrella is different,
