Listening to the gray-haired old man's story, I became more and more skeptical in my heart.

"What's the name of the old man? Where are the people? I asked.

"I don't know, no one knows where he came from and what his name is, just know that his surname is Ma." Said the gray-haired old man.

The fat woman scolded more and more fiercely, and the onlookers were shocked by her momentum, and they all gradually calmed down.

"If you say it again, if you say it again, I won't get up today! Lie to you for 180,000! Oh yo yo ~ headache! My feet hurt! Someone beats the old man! The old man shouted at the top of his voice.

The fat woman was stunned for a moment, and suddenly her face turned red with anger, pointing at the old man and wanting to continue scolding. The old man pretended to shout: "Oh yo yo ~ it hurts me to death!" I've got a broken leg! Oh yo yo~"

"Dead old man! Don't pretend to me! I've seen Lai, I've never seen you so Lai, you're so shameless! The fat woman was furious.

The old man didn't reply, the more he screamed, the more powerful it became, just like the real one.

The onlookers persuaded the fat woman to go first, and it would be troublesome to really scold her for a while at such an old age.

The fat woman stared at the old man lying on the ground screaming viciously, and left reluctantly, every step was a dull sound, and there was a feeling of a behemoth pulling up a mountain and a tree!

And they departed.

The surroundings finally fell silent.

When the people were gone, the old man got up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and his eyes flashed obscene again, and walked towards the house as if nothing had happened.

I finished my sour food and herbal tea, and after settling the bill, I stepped forward and said politely: "Excuse me, is it Mr. Ma?" ”

The old man Ma glanced at me and waved his big hand: "You recognize the wrong person, I don't have the surname Ma!" ”

As I spoke, I strode towards the door, and I stepped forward quickly, intentionally or unintentionally, blocking the door, lest he close the door and never come out.

I said earnestly, "It was Mr. Chen who introduced me here, and asked me to come to you for help." ”

"Ask me for help! No way! He stared at the beads of anger in his eyes, "Don't think I didn't see it, just now I was surrounded and scolded, you stinky boy is eating sour and drinking herbal tea next to watch the excitement!" You want me to help you! There are no doors! ”

It sounds like the old man still has a few pounds and two.

He angrily walked through the door, and I squeezed into it on one side.

"Old man, human life is at stake, only you can help me."

"You also know that human life is at stake, and you were almost killed by that fat woman just now, but you are very comfortable watching the excitement! Help? No way! It doesn't matter if you're dead or alive, let me out! "As he spoke, he was about to push me out.

The old man looked thin and shriveled, but he had a lot of strength. It seems that he cares a lot about our inaction.

"Eh, don't worry, Mr. Chen asked me to bring something over, you should take a look first." I was almost pushed out by him, grabbing the doorframe with one hand and steady.

"I don't know Mr. Chen! If you don't leave, don't blame me for being unkind! As he spoke, he picked up the broom next to him with one hand.

The old man was angry with the birds just now, and took the opportunity to sprinkle it on me.

I quickly took out the Divine Seal and handed it to him.

The old man Ma was stunned, and his expression of bird's anger was swept away, and his eyes were fixed on the divine seal.

I thought he would snatch the Divine Seal over to observe it in the next second, but he just watched it with determination, and didn't make any other moves. The eyes showed a melancholy look that was incompatible with the obscene image, as if he remembered something from the past.

There is a door! Fortunately, I was witty enough to ask Old Man Chen for this token.

Old Man Chen stared at the Divine Seal motionlessly, and after a long while, I shook the Divine Seal and said, "Old Mr. Ma? ”

He came back to his senses, looked me up and down with shining eyes, threw his broom, and said angrily, "Come in, close the door!" ”

I went in the door and closed the door.

Follow the old man into the living room, the furnishings in the living room are simple, but quite in line with the image of the old man who lives alone.

He sat down in the only rocking chair and looked at me with a look of disdain and a little critical, as he gently rocked back and forth. I didn't speak, waiting for him to speak first.

After a while, he said, "What did he tell you, Lao Chen?" ”

"Mr. Chen said, I came here with this divine seal, and you will help me." I'll tell you the truth.

"Nothing else?" Old man Ma squinted at me.

"It's gone." Should there be anything else? What is the meaning of this seal?

Old man Ma was about to say something, when a knock on the door suddenly sounded, and a voice came from outside the door: "Old Mr. Ma! Are you at home? ”

The old man was next to the backrest, looking calm, as if he knew who it was.

"Mr. Ma? Mr. Ma? The voice outside the door continued.

"Go open the door." He called me unceremoniously.

I put away the Divine Seal and obediently went over to open the door.

When the door opened, I saw two guys in suits and leather shoes, who looked like people, and when they saw me, they were stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is Mr. Ma at home?" ”

"Who are you?" I asked in a host's tone, taking the opportunity to get to the bottom of them. The old man Ma seemed to know the origin of these two people just now, and looking at what they were wearing, they were by no means ordinary people.

It seems that they are not familiar with Old Man Ma, and they were really frightened by me, and one of them said, "Our second master wants to ask Old Man Ma for a favor." ”

Second master? This sounds very promising, such a big shelf has come to invite the old man, and nine times out of ten he has real skills.

I turned sideways and motioned for them to come in. Then close the door.

When he returned to the living room, he saw that the old man Ma had gotten a gourd scoop out of nowhere, and the scoop contained water, and he leaned next to the back of the rocking chair, raised his head slightly, and put the gourd scoop under his nose, and the water in the scoop slowly poured into his nose along the small groove of the scoop.

I was stunned, thinking he was cleaning his nose, but then I realized that he had sucked water into his nose at all.

The old man exhaled comfortably, it felt like taking a good puff of cigarettes and relaxing, unspeakably.

The two people in suits and leather shoes also looked confused, not knowing what the hell this old man was doing.

Is this just a nose drink? I thought this old custom would only appear in books! I didn't expect the old man Ma to have this preference, looking at his happy face, he didn't choke and panic?

There was a strange smell of mint and coriander mixed in the room, which emanated from the water in the gourd scoop, which did not seem to be ordinary clear water. I've always hated coriander, and I'm disgusted by the smell.

"Mr. Ma, our second master wants to ask you for a favor." One of them said respectfully.

Another person added: "The second master said, it doesn't matter how much the honorarium is. ”
