Chapter 7: The Clouds Rise (10)

Bai Sumei took Tang Long along the sidewalk of the archway and walked in, and came to an old gray-white village committee building downstairs, which was full of cars parked horizontally and vertically, and all kinds of small shops were lined up one after another, although it was a little noisy and noisy, but it was also full of life. After swiping the card to enter the door, Bai Sumei took Tang Long to the elevator, the elevator was shaky and crunched, which made people a little uneasy.

The elevator stopped on the sixth floor, Bai Sumei and Tang Long stepped out of the elevator, came to the door of room 602, and rang the doorbell. The door quickly opened, revealing a smiling, wrinkled face.

"Meimei is back!"

"Yes, Mom, I'm back, this is my classmate, his name is Tang Long." Bai Sumei introduced to her mother.

"Hello aunt." Tang Long hurriedly shouted.

"Hello, welcome to our house, come in!" After Bai Sumei's mother finished speaking, she took a pair of dry linen slippers and handed them to Tang Long.

The house is a two-bedroom, one-living room and one-bathroom layout, the living room is a little small, the furniture is outdated, but the inside is very tidy. There is a photo wall behind the sofa, which is full of photos of Bai Sumei and her family. Bai Sumei's mother beckoned Tang Long to pour a cup of chrysanthemum tea for Tang Long after the sofa was ready. At this time, Tang Long found that this thin, plainly dressed middle-aged woman was limping on her right leg.

After she finished pouring tea for Tang Long, she immediately dragged her right leg into the kitchen. Bai Sumei turned on the TV and handed the remote control to Tang Long.

There was a clattering sound in the kitchen, the sound of kitchen knives colliding on a cutting board. Tang Long saw that Bai Sumei's mother was busy, so he walked to the kitchen door and said to Bai Sumei's mother:

"Auntie, I'm sorry for your trouble, I'll help you!"

"No, no, you just sit there and watch TV with Meimei. It's not troublesome at all, Mei Mei has never brought a male classmate home, we are all very happy that you can come! ”

Tang Long looked at Bai Sumei, and Bai Sumei nodded at him. Tang Long had no choice but to return to the sofa.

After the dish is cut, the smell wafts through the kitchen, and soon, the dish is ready. Bai Sumei walked into the kitchen and helped her mother bring the dishes to the table, Tang Long looked at the dining table, there were steamed sea bass, braised prawns, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried red cabbage moss, stir-fried lettuce, chicken and mushroom soup, six dishes and one soup, there are meat and vegetarian, and the table is full.

"Meimei, are you and your classmates hungry? If you're hungry, eat first! Bai Sumei's mother said.

"How's it going, are you hungry?" Bai Sumei asked Tang Long.

Tang Long shook his head.

"No, Auntie, let's eat together when Uncle comes back! We're not hungry yet. Tang Long said.

"Okay, then wait for her dad to be with him, his dad works in a jewelry factory nearby, he is the polisher inside, if he has to work overtime, he usually sends me a message early, I haven't received the message today, he should be back soon."

After Bai Sumei's mother finished speaking, she brought a plate and covered the large bowl full of chicken soup.

"It's okay, no hurry, no hurry." Tang Long said.

Fifteen minutes later, the doorbell rang, Bai Sumei hurried over to open the door, and Tang Long followed. A man in his forties entered, he was wearing a gray overalls, a short flat head, some gray sideburns, and a pair of eyes that were red and swollen, as if he had not slept for three days and three nights.

Bai Sumei's father was stunned at first when he saw a boy coming to the house, but immediately smiled. During the meal, Bai Sumei's mother put vegetables in Tang Long's bowl one by one, and Bai Sumei's father chatted with Tang Long while eating.

Bai Sumei's father asked Tang Long where he was studying at Shenzhen University, where he was from, and whether his family was in Shenzhen, and Tang Long told him one by one. When Tang Long told Bai Sumei's father that he lived with his family in the Great Century Water Mountain Rim in Nanwan Street, Longgang District, his father praised: "I know that the community is at the foot of the mountain in Qiushuishan Resort in Longgang District, and the environment is much better than ours here." ”

"Nanshan Village is not bad." Tang Long

Bai Sumei's father told Tang Long: "The houses in this urban village are aging, but it is such an old village, and there are actually 30,000 or 40,000 people. However, there are not many aborigines here, and most of them have moved to large garden communities in the city center. This house was bought by us from an aboriginal surnamed Chen at that time, and we bought it early, and the house of more than 80 square meters only cost 200,000 yuan, and now the price has increased tenfold. ”

"In Shenzhen, the houses that were bought early made money."

Bai Sumei's father picked up the soup bowl, took a sip of soup and said, "For people who speculate on houses, maybe that's the case!" For those of us who live honestly, the biggest function of the house is not to speculate and make money, but to live. This is about to be demolished, as a unified building, after the demolition I don't know how the relevant departments will compensate, and the money for compensation, if you want to buy a house in the community near Nanshan Village, is definitely only enough to pay a down payment, plus the decoration fee or something, enough to make people bear. ”

Bai Sumei raised her head and glanced at her father, then lowered her head and ate again.

"Yes, that's a big problem."

"Demolition and relocation will make some people rich overnight, and many people will become house slaves."

"Dad, just eat! Can you stop talking about these heavy topics? Bai Sumei couldn't help but say.

"Let's eat! Let's eat! Bai Sumei's mother looked at her husband and said, then turned her face and said to Tang Long, "Young man, eat more." ”

Tang Long didn't care if it was indecent, and devoured it. Usually, he either eats at Shenda, or goes to restaurants to eat or order takeout, and rarely eats such refreshing and delicious home-cooked food, he is suffocated, and eats three bowls of rice in a row.

After eating, he chatted with Bai Sumei's parents for a while, and then said goodbye to them and returned to Shenzhen University. Bai Sumei sent him all the way to the archway in Nanshan Village.

A few days later, Tang Long saw an explosive news in the WeChat circle of friends, with the title - "Death Wizard" vs. "Undefeated God of War", "Beautiful Demon" Sets Off a Fighting Storm". Tang Long clicked on the news, which read:

It is reported that on December 26, the two fighting superstars "Death Wizard" Huang Dayi and "God of War" Jin Tianya will face off on the stage of the glory of warriors. Huang Dayi and Jin Tianya are the top figures in the 80kg middleweight division of free fighting in China, and the question of who is stronger between the two has always been a topic of debate among fans. And this time, the editor confirmed through many parties that they have personally agreed to fight with each other, and the two sides have now entered a state of intense preparation.

Interestingly, they are all from Wuhan, Hubei Province, and they have been practicing sanda and Muay Thai with domestic gold medal fighting coach Zhang Yuanfeng since childhood, and later transformed into free fighting.

Meanwhile, World No. 1 middleweight champion and WPMF Muay Thai World Champion "Beauty Demon" Simon, who is an American Muay Thai fighter who has studied Muay Thai since he was a kid and won multiple Muay Thai titles, representing the highest level of Muay Thai today. This time, his opponent is yet to be decided, but no matter who he fights, he will be the brightest star of that round.

It is reported that although Simon has not met Huang Dayi and Jin Tianya, he has made an appointment with Huang Dayi and Jin Tianya through social media, but neither Huang Dayi nor Jin Tianya has responded, and the glory night on December 26, the New Year's Eve battle, the starry one, is destined to be a visual feast for all fans, looking forward to their peak showdown.

Since Huang Dayi came to Pengqiang Fight Club, Tang Long has never been to the club to practice boxing, and he asked Jin Tianya for leave on the grounds of physical discomfort. He knew that he shouldn't tell this lie, but he didn't want to face Jin Tianya, he didn't want to guess if he was the stone of nine years ago when he saw Jin Tianya, he didn't want to think about the tragedy that happened on the shore of Wuyou Lake nine years ago over and over again when he saw him, he didn't want Lin Jiali's miserable cry to travel through time and space and sound in the club, he couldn't stay focused in the club and devoted himself to training.

He knew that when he went to Pengqiang Fight Club, he would taste pain and resentment as salty as sweat, rather than the love of fighting, the thrill of strength, skill and confrontation.

However, when he was away from the club, he always felt empty in his heart. He plunged headlong into the stacks of books and began to return home on Saturdays and Sundays to reunite with Tang Qiang and Jin Yuhua. Ever since he stood up for Tang Qiang at the Train-Guessing Bar, Tang Qiang's attitude towards him has changed greatly, and he loves him a lot. However, the love and approval of his parents could not fill the hole in his heart.

There was a sleepy beast in his heart that was roaring wildly, it wanted to break through the cage, he wanted to break out of the dark labyrinth, he wanted to leap into the forest, he wanted to consume his strength and passion wantonly.
