Chapter 38: The Old Prostitute
The old man often taught me that those who know the times are handsome, and if they should retreat, they will retreat, and if they can, don't suffer losses, this is the magic method of going to the rivers and lakes to live a long life.
If you are really like a stunned young man, who goes up against the limelight when he encounters anything, then when it comes to suffering, he will definitely fall to his death.
But what about now?
This person who once taught me to know the current affairs as a handsome man and never work hard with the "potential", but made a choice that even he knew was unwise.
"If he didn't have this temper, he wouldn't have been able to get the nickname of a living Hades in the industry."
Sitting on the train, I chatted with Qibao while snorting melon seeds, and said with a gossip on my face: "Don't you know, when Wenren Bodhisattva was still in Chengdu, he talked to me privately, saying that my grandfather's temper is more stubborn than that of a donkey, and he can't persuade him when he doesn't go, and no one can persuade him at a critical time. ”
"Old Shen, do you believe it?" Qibao smiled evilly: "If Master Shen hears your words, he will 100% slap you with a big mouth, and he will have to beat you with a peach blossom on your face!" ”
"Isn't it impossible to beat?" I laughed.
As soon as the words fell, I leaned on the side of the window, looked out a few times, and asked if Qibao had to change trains halfway?
"yes." Qibao swallowed melon seeds, nodded and said: "This train is not direct to Xiangxi, I have arranged it over there, and when we get off the train, I will find someone to drive us to Longshan." ”
"Why don't you just drive there?" I was a little curious: "It's faster to drive than to take a train, right?" ”
"Almost." Qibao explained: "The main reason is that there is no direct train to Longshan, otherwise who would drive there?" ”
As he spoke, Qibao yawned and rubbed his eyes: "Go to sleep, wake up tomorrow morning, and we should set off, the people over there are still waiting." ”
I hummed and said you go to sleep first, and I'll sit here for a while.
Seeing that I had no intention of sleeping, Shippo nodded and went to straighten the corpse by myself, while I sat on a small bench and continued to look out at the night scene with great interest.
Of course, in those days, as soon as it was dark, the outside of the train was also black.
Not to mention the night view, there is not even a little light, and I sit there in a daze.
"The old man should be fine."
I muttered, opened my mouth, and touched my fingers over my gums.
The teeth that erupted after that had grown were much larger, no longer with white tips like they had at the beginning, but clearly morphed.
If this momentum continues, I'm afraid that in less than half a month, the two rows of teeth in my mouth will have to return to normal.
But it's impossible to say whether they will fall off on the way to growth.
"I can't sleep again."
Suddenly, Shippo sat down across from me again, and said with a sad face that he wouldn't be sleepy just after lying down, and he really didn't know what was wrong with it.
"Lao Shen, you said that we went to Longshan coldly, will that Yi Daxi God help us?" Qibao leaned his head against the window, and as soon as the train moved, he shook and trembled, as if he was going crazy: "I haven't heard him say before, if that old man doesn't help us, we'll be really blind." ”
"No, it won't." I smiled and said, "The friendship of the older generation is more reliable than ours, since the old man said that he will help us, then don't worry." ”
"I heard Master Shen say that Yi Daxi God makes a living by driving corpses, which is retro enough, he has been cremated all these years, and there is still the business of chasing corpses?" Qibao grabbed another handful of melon seeds and chatted with me: "Now the corpses are transported by car, how slow are people in a hurry?" ”
"There are still many burials in the mountains, and it is not surprising that there are corpses, not to mention that there are some places where cars can't go, only corpse chasers carry corpses over the mountains and mountains" I smiled: "Besides, just making a living by driving corpses doesn't sound reliable, do you believe what the old man said?" ”
"What do you mean?" Qibao was stunned.
"Chasing corpses is a side job, how can there be so many corpses for him to drive?" I shook my head: "The five techniques in Xiangxi are, respectively, exorcism, evil suppression, corpse expulsion, physiognomy, cure, corpse chaser is just a small door, and there are many ways to make money." ”
With that, I opened a bottle of soda, took two sips with a smile, and asked Shippo, do you want to know a little inside information?
"Yes!" Qibao nodded busily: "I'm just a good person!" What's the inside scoop? ”
"Last year wasn't right, it was the year before last." I frowned: "The old man went on a business trip, probably for half a month, during that time I remember that you still lived in my house, saying that you were with me, do you remember this?" ”
Shippo nodded and said yes.
"Later, I also asked that the place where he went on a business trip was in Longshan, Xiangxi." I whispered: "I guess this matter has something to do with Yi Daxishen, but the old man didn't say it explicitly, I asked him yesterday, and he avoided talking about it." ”
"What? Do you know the inside scoop? Shippo's eyes lit up.
"When Wenren Bodhisattva was still in the store, he also talked to me about Yi Daxi, saying that he had encountered a catastrophe the year before last and almost lost his life in the mountains." I smiled and said, "Contact the old man on a business trip again, do you think there is a story in this?" ”
Shippo was silent, and after some contemplation, he finally gave the answer in a sudden sense.
"You mean, the old man gave Yi Daxi God to Yin in the mountains?"
"You're really a pig's brain!" I laughed so angrily: "I mean, this calamity, it is very likely that the old man helped him through this disaster." ”
"No wonder Master Shen said that he owes himself a favor!" Qibao patted his head and said with a smile: "But it's not a shameful thing, why don't you tell us?" ”
"If you don't say it, there will be a reason not to say it, let's not ask, let's find out if you have the opportunity." I laughed.
Early the next morning, Qibao and I took our luggage and settled in a small town in Hunan.
Outside the train station, we casually found a small restaurant for breakfast, and by the way, we waited for Shippo's friends to drive over.
I have to say that I thought that the customs of Hunan were very different from those of Sichuan, so when I got off the train, I couldn't stop being curious and wanted to take a good look at what kind of place Hunan is.
As a result, as soon as I got out of the train station, I wondered, and there was no big difference with Sichuan!
Just as I was muttering to Shippo, his friend swaggered in, carrying a leather bag with English printed on it, and looking at the sign on it, it was supposed to contain red wine.
"Shippo! Ha ha! You're finally willing to come to Hunan to play! ”
The man looked older than us, with a scruffy beard and hair about the size of a chicken's nest, but he was wearing a leather jacket and leather trousers, and he looked more coquettish than anyone else.
"Holy shit, you just went out to make a mess?" Qibao put down his chopsticks, saw him like this, and laughed uncontrollably: "Where did you go to debauchery again?" ”
"Nonsense, I'm not debauched, I'm looking for tenderness." The man had a lewd smile on his face, and he didn't recognize his life, so he naturally sat next to me and looked at me: "This is Brother Shen, right?" ”
"Yes, he is older than you and me, and I don't owe you anything to Brother Sheng." Qibao introduced.
"Brother Shen, I hear Qibao often talk about you, this time you can be regarded as seeing a real person!" The man took my right hand and shook it as he spoke.
"Hello"
Qibao saw that I was a little embarrassed, so he introduced: "This is a buddy I met in high school, surnamed Zhang, but you don't need to call him by name, just call the old prostitute like me." ”
"Old scoop?" I looked at Qibao in a daze: "What scoop?" Scoops of pots and pans? ”
Qibao coughed twice, lowered his voice, and said, "Prostitution."
Fuck me.
Old prostitute.
Does this mean that he always goes to prostitution??
"Qibao, you're not polite when you speak, where is the nickname when you introduce to people?" The old prostitute looked at Qibao very unhappily, looked at me again, and sneered: "I'm just such a hobby, but my body is healthy, sitting next to you, I hope you don't mind." ”
Hearing him say this, I was a little embarrassed, and waved my hand again and again, saying that I didn't mind.
"It's rare for you to come to Hunan, I, who am a brother, must do my landlord's friendship, let's go now, I'll take you to have a good day!"
The old prostitute said with great interest and patted her chest: "You can play with confidence!" I'm in for a treat! ”
Qibao smiled awkwardly and handed a cigarette to the old prostitute, blocking his later words.
"Well, let's get down to business."
