483.Chapter 483
As soon as I heard this, I smiled awkwardly, and I was embarrassed to live here for half a month. I touched my pocket, intending to compensate the old man for a little money, but found that my pocket was penniless except for the dozen or so red envelopes that Mr. Fan had returned.
However, if you live here for half a month, if you don't get some money, you will definitely not be able to say it. At that moment, I shoved the dozen or so red envelopes towards him.
The old man smiled slightly, gave up, and said, "I am far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and the money of the world is of no use to me. β
With that, he pushed the red envelopes back and walked straight to the door.
Seeing his actions, I smiled bitterly, this old man was disgusted with the world at first glance, otherwise he would not live in a bamboo house, I was so idiotic as to give him money, isn't this embarrassing for myself.
At that moment, I immediately followed him, came to the door, I raised my eyes to look outside the door, in front of me was a bamboo forest, no, it should be a sea of bamboo, boundless bamboo, wrapping this house, I couldn't help but praise, "Good place." β
He smiled and said, "Xiao Jiu, there is a Qimen Dunjia array in the bamboo forest, this is the drawing, you can walk out of the bamboo forest by walking according to the place marked by this drawing, and if you have the opportunity in the future, you can come here to taste tea with me." β
As he spoke, he handed me a drawing.
I took the drawing and looked at it, it was two palms big, and many places on it were marked with cinnabar pens, presumably those marked places were the exits he said, I bent down at him and said a word of thanks.
He lifted me up and said, "You don't need to thank me for being entrusted by others and being loyal to others, but I hope that you will do more good deeds in the world, and you will not fail to live up to the three words of the coffin bearer." With that, he walked towards the room.
I was stunned for a moment, and shouted at him: "Old man, thank you for taking care of me during this time, I don't know what your name is?" β
He paused for a moment, didn't turn around, and said: "You can call me a nameless old man, by the way, the mobile phone in your hand belongs to Miss Qin'er, in the world, remember to return the mobile phone, don't take people's money indiscriminately." β
I hummed, bent down at him again, and was about to turn away, when I saw a tattoo on the old man's neck, only half of which was exposed, and that half looked like the strange symbols on Mr. Fan and Doctor Lu.
I took out the lighter left by Lao Wang, and was about to check it, but the old man had already entered the house.
Seeing this, I sighed helplessly, so I had to give up, turned around and walked into the bamboo forest.
As soon as I entered the bamboo forest, I had to sigh, this bamboo forest is really a good place, the air is exceptionally fresh, and I can even smell the aroma of the earth, and a few sparrows are playing carefree on the bamboo branches, all of which look so natural.
I took a deep breath of fresh air and, following the location marked on the drawing, walked outside.
I never thought that this bamboo forest was so big, and it took me more than an hour to walk out of it.
As soon as I got out of the bamboo forest, I was stunned, this bamboo forest is actually on a mountainside near our village, this is very strange, I have lived in Aozi Village for more than ten years, and I have never found such a large bamboo forest near our village.
Made, what's going on?
I was stunned for a moment, and then turned around to look at the bamboo forest, but found that the bamboo forest was not big, covering an area of more than two acres, which was not particularly large.
Now, I wondered, it took more than an hour to walk out of this bamboo forest just now, why is it that the bamboo forest is only two acres of land when I look at it from the outside? If there are really only two acres of land, I just crawl and walk, and it won't take me more than an hour!
I thought about it for a while, and I was going to go in again to find out, but when I remembered what the nameless old man said, I was relieved, maybe the nameless old man had set up some tricks.
At that moment, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, the nameless old man was really a master, he was reluctant to take a look at the bamboo forest, made a gesture, put away the drawings, and walked down the mountain.
On the way, I thought about going back home, and I was away from home for almost half a year, and I didn't know how my parents were doing at home, and I didn't know how my parents were doing.
However, thinking of my father's attitude when I ran away from home, I dispelled this thought, in case my father was locked up at home again, or sent to a shoe factory in Guangzhou, how could I still be a Eight Immortals?
Sometimes, I have to admit that, in a way, I am not filial, and I am very unfilial. However, which young person did not have a little rebellious psychology when he was young, our generation of post-80s, as soon as he was born, he was named rebellious, once he rebelled, he would go against his parents, which was equivalent to unfilial piety.
At that time, I was the same, thinking about fighting with my parents, coming out of the hall, and then returning to the village to glorify my ancestors. Now that I am mature, I can't help but smile bitterly when I think about it at that time, I was too naΓ―ve at the beginning.
Descending to the foot of the mountain, I tossed and turned several times, sneaked up to the mountainside at the back of the village, looked at my house, and did not see my father, but saw my mother sitting on the flat in front of the house, tinkering with something in her hands, because of the distance, I could not see very clearly, and I could vaguely see as if she was knitting a sweater.
After staring at my mother for three or four minutes, my eyes were a little bitter, and tears fell out of my eyes. That's the mother, the mother who gave birth to me and raised me, I... I was so angry that I could only watch her quietly from a distance, and if I guessed correctly, she was knitting me a sweater for the winter.
Thinking, thinking, tears fell out like beans, as a son of man, he can't fulfill his filial piety, and the biggest irony is this.
Suddenly, I don't know what was going on, my mother in front of the room stood up, put down the things in her hand, and looked in my direction, so frightened that I immediately squatted down, raised my eyes and secretly glanced over, and saw my mother's eyes staring in my direction.
She looked at it for about a minute, as if she had found something, took a few steps forward, and shook her head helplessly.
Seeing this, my heart is very bitter, my location and my mother's location, at least one or two hundred meters, plus I am surrounded by trees, my mother cannot find my figure, there is only one possibility, mother and son are connected, she is aware of my existence.
To tell the truth, I almost ran down the mountain to meet my mother. However, the current situation does not allow me to appear in Aozi Village at all, after all, Lao Wang's matter has not been resolved.
I took my eyes off my mother and glanced at Wang's house, which was very quiet, as if he did not know about Wang's disappearance, which made me feel a little relieved.
Then, I looked at my mother for a while, turned around and walked towards the grave of old Xiucai, made a few gestures at his grave, and said some words in my heart, and said to the grave what I usually pressed in my heart.
After staying at Lao Xiucai's grave for about half an hour, I felt a lot more comfortable, straightened my clothes, and planned to go to the town to find Ah Da first, and ask him to return Qin'er's mobile phone. As for the high guy, I don't dare to go to him, the main reason is that the suspicion on my body is still there, once I find the high guy, it will inevitably hurt him, and the human heart is really hard to say.
So, I sneaked out of Aozi Village, I was afraid that I would meet the Eight Immortals on the road, so I had to walk along the grove on the side of the road towards the town.
Now that I think of it at that time, I was really like a lost dog, disgusted by thousands of people, and I didn't even dare to walk on the road.
