Plot
"We went to Peach Blossom Town, where are we going to stay?" I asked Tang Tang.
"I have already contacted a family over there, a friend of my uncle, who is willing to provide a place to live." Tang Tang said, "Peach Blossom Town has been a very rich place recently, and many commercial houses have come here to do business, even foreigners. I'm starving, I'm going to take you to find a place to eat. β
With that, she quickened the pace of pushing the wheelchair, and I looked towards the bridge, only to see that there was a choppy water under the bridge, but not the abyss I had seen before. And on the other side of the bridge behind me, it is not a town, but a street from the train station.
When we finally crossed the bridge, the town really showed in front of my eyes, it is indeed very prosperous, the buildings have western-style buildings and traditional buildings, a combination of Chinese and Western, although it is a mountain town, but it is a bit of a ten-mile foreign field feeling.
"How can it be so developed here?" I asked, looking at the cars that passed by from time to time on the street.
"I don't understand that it's a gold mine or something, anyway, it's a lot of business. I'll look at the address. Tang Tang took out a piece of paper and looked at it, I took my hand out of the sleeve of the cage hand, and straightened out my robe, this kind of robe I have only seen on TV, I didn't expect that I would really be able to wear it myself one day.
But when I took care of the robe, I felt that the underside of the robe was a little hard, and it was really the sound of wood when I knocked it.
I leaned over to check and was shocked to see that my right leg was a wooden leg!
"Tang Tang! What about my right leg! I asked, frightened.
"You...... Forgot about this? Your legs ...... It was also interrupted by the Japanese......" Tang Tang said.
"How is this possible!" I blurted out, I remember Boss Ning said that I didn't miss a leg in my previous life. This leg was sacrificed to the gods in my lifetime, how could it be broken during the Republic of China?
"Calm down, young master!" Tang Tang said, "Everything will be fine!" β
I suddenly understood!
The place I am in may not be the past, but an inexplicable gap between reality and illusion, between the past and the present.
The troubles of Peach Blossom Town have begun.
Tang Tang hurriedly pushed me to a roadside food stall and said, "Let's finish drinking sweet porridge, don't think about it!" I'll see how much money we still have......"
After that, she ordered two bowls of porridge, and sprinkled some candied fruit on the porridge, I picked up a spoon and stirred it in the bowl, and suddenly I realized that I still had the platinum ring that Boss Ning gave me on my hand, but I didn't know where he was now.
"Tang Tang, why do you still take such good care of me? Now the old mansion of the Qin family is over there...... There shouldn't be anyone, right? I can't afford to pay your wages anymore. I said.
"Young master, you are kind to our family, you may have forgotten, I have liked you since I was a child, if it weren't for you, our family would have to suffer a lawsuit back then. In short, I won't tell you, you are always confused, you can take care of your body with peace of mind, Boss Ning left a letter saying that he left you a sum of money, which is for you to make a living in the second half of your life, and when we borrow money, you can take you to the bank in Shanghai and withdraw the money! Tang Tang said.
"Boss Ning! Have you met him! I was excited.
ββ¦β¦ He left you ...... It's a will. Tang Tang said a little bitterly, "I didn't expect him to take care of you so much after he died...... Have you forgotten whether he is dead or not? β
Yes, Boss Ning died when he was in the Republic of China, it was a thousand cuts, and he was hung on the city tower after his death.
Before he died, he didn't forget to think about the rest of my life, and prepared money for me to retreat.
I suddenly breathed a little bit, and I just felt chilled.
"He doesn't want you to suffer, don't think about it, he was killed by bandits. We can't do it! Tang Tang comforted me.
I gasped heavily, lying on the table, trying to stabilize my increasingly chaotic thoughts, I gradually couldn't tell which era I was in, which Qin Junhua I was.
"Young Master! Are you okay! Get up, take your medicine, take your medicine! Tang Tang tried his best to help me up, took out the medicine and stuffed it into my mouth, and tried to feed me with porridge.
"I'm fine." I crushed the bitter pill and let the bitter taste sober me up.
After drinking half a bowl of porridge, I signaled that we could leave, Tang Tang drank porridge very quickly, and he didn't know how long he had been hungry.
She pushed me around the scattered streets and alleys of Peach Blossom Town, and after a long time, she finally found the family that was said to be a temporary residence for us.
This family is not rich, but it is also well-off, with its own two-story small house, the home is also extremely clean and comfortable, the male owner of the family is doing business all the year round, the hostess and the maid stay at home, the woman's family is still very enthusiastic when they see us, as if this family has a great relationship with Uncle Tang Tang.
After settling me down, Tang Tang said: "Young Master, I will go to Qin Junli tomorrow to ask for money, you are weak, don't follow me, do you have anything to say to him?" β
"Show him my seal, and prove that I am here." I say.
"With you, you can rest assured." She said, "I heard that Qin Junli is very stingy and his six relatives don't recognize him, so I'm already ready to deal with him!" β
"Where is he now? Is it the Ji family? If my guess is correct, the Ji family must be the richest man in the local area. I said.
"Haha, young master, your mind is clear now, that's right, the Ji family is said to be the owner of the gold mine." Tang Tang said.
I pondered for a moment and said, "Then you see Qin Junli tomorrow, don't talk about anything else, just say that I, Qin Junhua, welcome him here, ask him to come and pick up his brother in person, I will write a letter to you, if he refuses to come, show him this letter." β
"Good, good! Young Master, you'd better write his handle to him! "Tang Tang, this little girl is extremely smart, she is simply thorough, and she is very clever, when she hears me say this, she thinks that I have the handle of Qin Junli in my hand.
With that, she pushed me to my desk and began to study ink for me.
This one...... I actually have ugly calligraphy because we don't have brush courses in school, and I was a little overwhelmed when I suddenly got a brush and a ballpoint pen from childhood to adulthood.
"Tang Tang, go make me some tea, I'm going to brew it." I quickly pushed her away.
When she was gone, I quickly brushed the paper with a brush and began to write, although the words were ...... It's not pretty, but it's good to be able to understand it.
As soon as I finished writing, I stuffed the letter into the envelope and licked the envelope to paste it.
After licking it for a long time, I suddenly remembered that this envelope is not the kind of modern envelope that can be glued to the post office with a lick.
Tang Tang suddenly said behind me: "Young master, if you don't go to bed and rest, I always think you may be confused again...... What are you licking that for? β
I can't help but feel hot.
The hostess of this house specially asked their little maid to come over to take care of my daily life, and it turned out that the bath was really in that kind of big basin. When I finally washed up and climbed into bed, the old-fashioned kerosene lamp was also extinguished by the little guy.
After removing the wooden legs, I feel a lot lighter, but I also feel that this body is so thin that it is a little awkward does not look like my own, and even feels that when the little guy helps me stand up, my height is also a little wrong, a little taller than my real height, so who am I?
The next morning, it was the little guy who took care of me and got up, I changed my clothes, sat in the wheelchair, and turned the handwheels on both sides of the wheelchair to the table, and there were mirrors in front of the table that I specially asked the little guy to bring.
In the mirror, my hair was long and gray, and I could vaguely recognize myself, but my cheeks were sunken, and I really looked like I had suffered a great sin.
Tang Tang said that after I learned of Boss Ning's death, my head turned white overnight, and now I am only less than thirty years old.
"Erbao, do you know how to get a haircut?" I asked the little guy.
"Yes, I helped the master take care of it, and he praised my craftsmanship!" He said.
"Give me a haircut." I said, "Let me be more energetic." β
"Okay!" The little guy went to prepare the tools.
Tang Tang is a clever girl, very likable, and in less than a day, she chatted with the hostess hotly, and the relationship was very good, as soon as I finished getting a haircut, she came over to show off: "Young master, look, this is the dress that Aunt Mei gave me." It's so good-looking, I'm going to wear it to see that Qin Junli. β
It turned out that this hostess, that is, Aunt Mei, had no children since she was pregnant with her daughter and had a miscarriage in her early years, because she liked Tang Tang very much, she simply recognized her as her goddaughter and loved her very much.
I combed my freshly cut hair, looked at her and said, "Well, it's really good-looking, and it deserves you." β
"Yes! Ah! Gentleman! What a spirit! It's like a different person! It's simply radiant! She was pleasantly surprised, "You're finally willing to cut your hair." β
"You take my letter to Qin Junli." I handed her the letter on the table.
"What was written. Can I see it? Tang Tang asked.
"You can't watch." I raised the corners of my mouth.
She was stunned and shouted at me, "Oops! β
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Young Master, your eyes, and your expression, seem to be a different person! You've always been muddy and sad, and I thought you'd never smile againβyou look good when you laugh, and ......," she thought for a moment, "why do I always think you've become cunning?" β
"Hahaha!" I laughed out loud, "If Qin Junhua is not cunning, then a few lives are not enough to compensate." β
"You're crazy again! That's it, I don't care about you, I'll go find Qin Junli! Tang Tang finally left.
Spells, Tianyan, none of them can be used, and even Boss Ning is gone.
However, Qin Junhua, a thousand years ago, also had nothing at the beginning.
So,
There is nothing to be afraid of at all.
Whether it is a god or a demon who inhabits this place,
Those who follow me prosper, and those who go against me
Lose!
