Chapter 194: Cornered

"Eight days, you wait to accompany me to Orchid Bay!" Tang Dasheng suddenly said quietly to Tang Batian. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Tang Batian's hand holding the cup paused suddenly, holding the hot teacup tightly, and looked at Tang Daxing in surprise and looked at himself quietly, this is not like a temporary idea, if he is not there, he must have asked someone else to go. Seeing Tang Daxing's eyes calm, sitting on the wooden chair with an indifferent expression, Tang Batian understood this in his heart.

The lights in the living room were flickering, and Tang Zurao had installed the electric lights for his parents early, but the old man, like most of the old people in the village, was reluctant to waste that little bit. In their hearts, they felt that although electric lights were good, they needed money, and kerosene, although it was also expensive, was much less. In this era of pride in being able to use electric lights, the old man still maintains a simple mentality.

Tang Batian admired Tang Zurao's point very much, filial piety and unassuming. This virtue may come from his parents, looking at Tang Daxing's expression, Tang Batian's heart churned. This kind old man had his own stubbornness, and he knew that he was not joking with himself, which made Tang Batian feel cautious again in his heart for the first time.

What made the always calm Tang Province unable to hold back?

To say that there is no major reason, this old man will go to Orchid Bay in the middle of the night? It is neither a place for the fire brigade to stay, nor a place for the village committee, but the ancestral tomb of the Tang family and the Yizhuang where the burial station is located. Seeing Tang Daxing's quiet expression, Tang Batian's heart was in a mess, he was not a simple-minded person, from Tang Daxing's wise eyes, he seemed to have discovered many things.

Of course, the most important thing is transparency, Tang Batian knew that he knew Tang Province better, whether he was the leader of the promotion hall or a well-known figure in the city over the years, this old man was neither humble nor arrogant. He never scolded himself, never avoided himself, and still treated himself as calmly as he did decades ago, when he was a child. One person can do this, Tang Batian suddenly felt that he was surrounded by some rare characters!

Tang Jinji, who is rich in learning and five cars, Tang Zhijie, who is extremely talented, and this Tang Province that has no quarrel with the world and is extremely smart. Tang Batian thought back to the road he had traveled over the years, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed in his heart. Thinking of his three sons, as well as his crooked font, Tang Batian suddenly felt a little bored in his heart.

A person who is usually quiet, after the fire in his ancestral home, actually wants to go to that place for the first time, which is really imaginative. There is only a cemetery where the dead are buried, and Luo Ran, who has always been feared and respected! Tang Da Province naturally couldn't go to see the dead in the cold winter, and Tang Batian naturally knew that he was a person who didn't usually joke, and his heart suddenly became worried.

"Is it going to Old Locke's house? That's a good place, you really have a vision! Hahaha! Shen Qiangyang, who was a little drowsy on the side, seemed to be more awake than anyone else, excitedly calling others for Tang Daxing's name, and shouted: "You don't know that Lao Luo's drunkard!" Well, it's absolutely easy to say, I'll go with you! Shen Qiangchen laughed and patted his trembling legs, not knowing if it was cold or because he was shivering.

"You still walk around like you!" Tang Batian glanced at Shen Qiangchen unceremoniously, this may sound a little harsh to others, but when Shen Qiangtian heard Tang Batian's words, he was straight at him. The two of them don't seem to have a lot of bickering, but it's obviously not a malicious quarrel, but this kind of ridicule that is particularly familiar with each other's personalities.

Tang Batian didn't wait for Shen Qiangchen to answer himself, so he looked at Tang Da Province opposite, but lowered his voice and said: "The weather outside is so cold, the village is covered with thick snow, go to such a remote place as Orchid Bay, this road is either a dirt road, a stone road or a wool road, in case there is a danger to freeze, Zu Rao will blame me!" ”

"I'm not old enough yet, although I usually do less heavy work, and I can't compare with those young and strong laborers, but in this weather, it's no problem to walk at night!" Tang Da Province has a heroic spirit at this time, which makes people seem to be a lot younger. He has always given people a sense of elegance, but at this time he feels a little more curious. Seeing Tang Batian looking at himself in surprise, he actually said lightly: "No matter how it snows or freezes, this time I must go!" ”

"Go, definitely go, it's okay, don't worry about me, I'll go with you!" Shen Qiangchen looked like he took it for granted, but he didn't beat his chest loudly. Whether he is drunk and smoked, or his eyes are sincere, this makes people feel that he is sober.

After Tang Batian glanced at Shen Qiangchen helplessly, he nodded towards Tang Daxing.

"The sun comes out to feed the joyful hello, and the lotus is on the flat and the shoulder is ,,,,,,!" A hoarse and untimely song began to cry and howl in this cold night.

The night in the countryside is peaceful, especially in the cold winter. If it weren't for the fact that there were a few old people in the promotion hall in the past few days, I am afraid that many people would have fallen asleep a long time ago. The night was still quiet tonight, as it was clearly colder than the previous days. There was no snow in the sky, but there was a slight north wind blowing, whimpering and whistling in the cold night, making people hide in the house.

Several people were walking slowly on the road with two flashlights without saying a word, but Shen Qiangchen suddenly sang a mountain song.

In fact, Shen Qiangyin's singing voice was okay, but it was noise in Tang Batian's ears, if it wasn't for Tang Daxing's lack of squeaking, he would have scolded again. I took two puffs of cigarette and saw the big house in Yizhuang.

Without a flashlight, you can actually see the Yizhuang hidden by ice and snow, like a huge mushroom. Tang Batian took a breath of cold air into his lungs, and felt that the whole person was much more awake, and he was more accustomed to the chill in the air. I wanted to put the flashlight away, because I felt too cold with the silver flashlight. But it seemed that seeing a few shadows over there, Tang Batian put away this idea.

"Shen Qiangchen, let's drink!" A loud voice laughed and walked along with a group of people. Everyone laughed and responded, and it should be people from the village who listened to the voice. Everyone doesn't seem to know that Shen Qiangchen is singing loudly, and that's because he is with Tang Batian and Tang Daxing. What's more important is that Shen Qiangchen had a premonition that there was wine to drink, and he got carried away with joy in his heart, no matter who you are!

Hearing that there was no response here, although someone took a flashlight to shine indiscriminately here, but the flashlights of Tang Batian and Tang Daxing here were both double-barreled long flashlights, and the light was much greater, and naturally they couldn't see who it was for a while, and only heard the murmur of Shen Qiangchen. But when they got closer, everyone saw that it was Tang Batian and Tang Daxing, so they all put away their frolicking voices.

For everyone's greetings, Tang Batian is used to it, whether it is sincere or not, Tang Batian is too lazy to care. However, when I saw that the leader of these people was Niu Shuigao, one of the four surnames of Orchid Bay, and Tang Pingxi, who was in the big house of the Carrying Forward Hall, I knew that this must be for the old man of Tang Pingnan's brother's family. A few words of chilling cicada Sure enough, everyone wanted to ask Luo Ran to go over and take a look, after all, the death of the Taoist guest of the Tang family was not a good sign.

Tang Batian perfunctory a few words to everyone, watching them go in the direction of the promotion hall, and then he came to Yizhuang with Tang Daxing again. When I got close to the door, I found that it had been covered with heavy snow for a few days, and now a clean road had been cleared in front of the village. Even the snow on the clump of Da Nan bamboo on the side had been shaken clean, and now the branches and leaves rustled in the north wind.

Shen Qiangchen stepped forward unceremoniously and banged on the door, and even knocked on the door knocker. But what is frustrating is that after nearly a minute of tinkering, no one in the house responds. Everyone just saw those people passing, naturally they didn't believe that there was no one in the house, and when they saw Shen Qiangchen's movements, Tang Batian was a little dumbfounded. However, standing aside with Tang Daxing, there was no intention of being in a hurry.

"Thirteen barbarians, coming here in such a hurry, is it because of Gao Yantang's affairs?" Tang Batian finally asked, in fact, he vaguely guessed something, but because it involved private matters, and because he came here just to find Luo Ran, Tang Batian must know this. What's more, Tang Batian also knew that since then, Luo Ran was sent to the village, and Tang Province, who was good at public opinion, became one of the people Luo Ran communicated with the most besides his own family.

"Although there are a lot of things going on in the village these days, I haven't been idle enough to go around sweeping the doors of others!" Tang Daxing suddenly sighed, seeing that the door of Yizhuang was still not open, although he didn't know what was going on in the house, he still showed patience.

Shen Qiangchen at the door obviously didn't have that much patience, and he didn't care that it was a little late now, so he opened his throat and shouted: "I said Lao Luo, you are too inauthentic, come to your house to beg for wine, don't even open the door!" Tell you, this time I'm here with someone, and your good friend is here to talk to you! He seemed to want to be extra gentle, but when these words came out of his mouth, others always felt a little strange when they heard them.

Tang Batian was a little dumbfounded, what he didn't worry about was that he was sure that Luo Ran was at home. The other thing that is not worried is that Yizhuang's side is more partial, and Shen Qiangchen is not afraid of disturbing others when he opens his throat. Because the nearest Tang Qi person is the uncle of Niu Shuigao just now, they are Luo Ran's closest neighbors, and they are almost more than 100 meters away.

Tang Daxing didn't even care about Shen Qiangchen's fanfare, knowing that although this tall man was addicted to alcohol, his heart was the most simple: "What happened in Gao Yantang decades ago is vivid, and many people may have forgotten it, but when I close my eyes, I can remember the miserable!" At that time, although the matter was later settled, Wu Madao said that the feng shui of Gao Yantang was cornered on the eaves on the left. If these divine beasts were destroyed one day, the descendants of Gao Yantang would suffer a great disaster! ”

"Is it so scary?" Tang Batian asked in a low voice with some lack of confidence.

"Alas!" Tang Daxing sighed deeply: "My uncle and cousin have fifteen, except for the three who died young, and the two who died of natural causes, now there is only one me left, you tell me about the disaster back then, isn't it very terrifying and desperate!" At this time, the flashlight had been turned off, but in the cold night, I could actually feel that Tang Daxing's eyes were a little shining.

Tang Batian suddenly seemed to be frozen, although he had not seen or seen the tragic situation in Gao Yantang back then, but he had heard the old man talk about it. Thinking that if everything was true, just thinking of that incident, Tang Batian felt that his hairs stood on end. And after that incident, for a long time, the old people in the village were silent and did not dare to mention it.
