Chapter Eighty-Five: Eyes

Deaf and dumb? Master, can you see this?

But it turned out that the master was really 'sharp-eyed', and when the old man drove to us, he didn't react to us at all, but hurriedly beckoned us to get on the boat.

The master didn't say much, but got on the boat very directly.

Then, Brother Zhengchuan and I also got on the boat, but before getting on the boat, I couldn't help but glance at the villagers, and one of the children who was cutting pigweed finally couldn't help but glance at us.

But an old man next to him, probably his grandfather, pulled him and pressed his head, and he had to continue to cut the pigweed.

And the old man's gaze also glanced towards us, but there was no fluctuation at all, and he was numb.

"Weird." I couldn't help but mutter.

Brother Zhengchuan also saw this scene, but he didn't say anything, just frowned slightly, and his usual lazy appearance disappeared cleanly, but it was only a momentary thing, and he regained his lazy appearance, leaning on the side of the boat, squinting, as if he was closing his eyes to recuperate.

The master was even more indifferent, as if he hadn't seen it at all.

At this time, the boat had already sailed away, and I couldn't help but look back at the villagers who were mowing the grass on the shore, the poor life made them look a little ragged, and even their every move was full of numbness, so that I couldn't help but feel a sadness in my young heart.

What is the reason behind this? If I find that reason, I suddenly have a very strong desire to help them break through this shackle, and there is a little boiling thing burning in my heart, as if this boiling has supported me through thousands of years.

At that moment, I was in a trance, and I felt that my face was hot.

But I didn't want the master's hand to pat me on the shoulder all of a sudden, he looked at me and said something inexplicable: "Third child, you have to eat one bite at a time, and you have to walk step by step." The current age is an accumulation of starting anew, and it is unacceptable for children to play with big knives. ”

"Huh? Master, I didn't think about playing with a big sword, I think it looks better with a sword. I was stunned and replied, after all, the hero on TV is carrying a sword.

"Hahahaha." Brother Zhengchuan suddenly burst out laughing.

Master touched my head and said with a smile, "You should use a sword." ”

I don't know what Brother Zhengchuan is laughing at, anyway, after listening to Master's words, I also smirked, could it be that Master also thinks that I have the temperament of a hero?

The deaf and dumb old man looked back at us, and didn't know what we were laughing at, so he gestured and laughed, but he was born deaf and dumb, and the voice was also weird.

Let me feel a little sympathy for this old man.

The shore is not far from the island in the middle of the lake, and the speed of this speedboat is quite fast, but it takes five or six minutes to reach the island in the middle of the lake.

The deaf old man led us out of the boat, and on the edge of the island in the middle of the lake there was only a small empty area, which was once sandy, but it was pasted with cement, and a cobblestone path led to the grove on the island.

After entering the grove, I found that the grove was very well kept, free of weeds and brambles, and that the cobblestone path runs through it, and that the building is in the middle of the grove.

It is not entirely correct to say that it is a building, it is a purely wooden building from the outside, the size is only larger than the average single-family house, and there is a fence outside the house, and the fence is full of flowers and plants, because it is early summer, these flowers and plants compete with each other, and they bloom just right.

I don't know these flowers and plants, but I think it's rare outside, and they are very beautiful anyway.

Thinking of a well-tended grove, I think the owner of this place must be a person who loves plants very much? But Brother Zhengchuan told me that it is certain that the owner here is really very rich, and he also has a social identity.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to get a small island to live on in Huaxia, even if it is just an island in the middle of a lake.

Besides, water and electricity are also a big problem, but it seems that it is not a problem at all on this island, at least there is the sound of the TV, and it is so well maintained.

I wasn't very old at the time, and I didn't know how to observe these things at all, anyway, when Brother Zhengchuan said it, I was very convinced.

To be honest, I don't think it's a great thing on this island, because there is still a huge piece of land in our mountain gate, although it is a little neglected, isn't it more awesome than this?

The island in the middle of the lake was not big, and as we spoke, we had already walked into the building, and the old man who was deaf and dumb took us to the house, and babbled away, and went to a separate wooden house, as if he lived there.

The owner here is proud enough, this 'guest' has come to the door, why hasn't he come out to pick it up or something? Do we want to break in on our own? Isn't that embarrassing?

As soon as I thought so, the door to the room opened, and a man in a simple white silk shirt and black silk pants stood in front of it.

He looks more gentle, not good-looking, but he is also pleasing to the eye, with a pair of glasses with yellowish lenses, which block his eyes from a certain distance.

I have always believed that a person's expression is first conveyed from the eyes, and then from the angle of the lips, so that you can judge what kind of expression the person is.

Because this person is blocked from his eyes, he doesn't move the muscles in his face when he sees us, so he can't see what attitude he has towards us? Anyway, when I stood behind Master, I always felt that he was a little indifferent to us, as if he didn't welcome us too much.

Everyone stood in front of the door for about two seconds, I was an age that couldn't hold my breath, seeing this scene, I couldn't help but pull the corner of my brother's clothes, and I didn't shy away from saying: "Brother Zhengchuan, otherwise let's let the master go?" We weren't too welcome. ”

"He must have been disappointed many times." Brother Zhengchuan didn't have time to answer me, but the master said it so lightly.

As soon as he said this, the man's eyebrows raised slightly, but he was a little surprised, and then he said: "It's really disappointed, I don't know how many times, please come in." ”

Perhaps it was Master's words that moved him, and he remembered to let us in, but in short, this attitude was indeed not friendly.

When we entered the house, we found that the interior of the house was very simple, and even the whole house kept the appearance of logs, and the furniture was very small, except for the necessary furniture, there was only one TV, plus a refrigerator.

There is only a huge wine cabinet that is very conspicuous, and the wine on it is from China to foreign countries in short, I don't know it, in short, it is very rich.

I saw Master secretly swallow a mouthful of saliva, coming down from the mountain, until now, he doesn't drink a drop of alcohol, and now seeing so much wine, it can be regarded as a 'wine worm' in his stomach.

"Sit down." The cold employer greeted us, and then, very casually, picked a bottle of wine from the huge shelf, took a few glasses, and placed them on the large table.

We also sat down around the table, and he said to us, "I am a man who lives on wine, and here there is nothing but wine." Don't know? ”

Before he could finish his sentence, Master said, "Wine is fine." My two apprentices, they just drink plain water. ”

The employer glanced at the master indifferently, and didn't say much, just pulled a rope hanging on the wall, and then after a while, an aunt came into the house and gave me and Brother Zhengchuan a large glass of white water.

As for him, the employer had already poured him a large glass of liquor, and the whole room smelled of wine. I had already started drinking one sip after another with my cup.

But looking at his expression, there are also regrets, I know, I guess he misses the bad soybeans made by Brother Zhengchuan himself.

The Master was drinking, and the employer was also drinking, and the two of them didn't speak, but they just seemed to have a good amount of alcohol, and after a drink, the employer would pour another glass for the Master and himself.

They didn't speak, and Brother Zhengchuan and I naturally couldn't talk, so we could only let the atmosphere be awkward and sit in silence.

It wasn't until he and Master drank the third glass of baijiu in empty mouths, and the bottle was about to bottom out, that the employer's face flushed a little, and he said, "Life is not a pleasant thing for me. However, people inevitably struggle in life, and whether there is hope or not? That's a biological instinct. ”

The wine seemed to be very good, and when the master heard this, he didn't even react at all, but just squinted his eyes and tasted the wine in the glass, looking intoxicated.

But the employer didn't care, and just said to himself, "It seems that all I have left is this biological instinct." Even remembering and talking is a difficult thing, and it takes the power of alcohol to make me feel a little alive and say something. However, I don't want to talk nonsense, I have already made it very clear what I should say. You must have understood the matter before you came to the door. ”

After speaking, he glanced at the master, took off his glasses very abruptly, and then looked at the master and said, "My situation seems to be a bit strict, if you really have the ability, you should be able to see something?" My request is simple, it won't be as abstract as what is written, it can be summed up in two words - help me. ”

What kind of brainless is this? I couldn't help but look up and meet his eyes.

What was reflected in my eyes was a pair of eyes that glowed faintly green in the daylight, but the funny thing was that under the eye sockets, there were terrible bloodshots, red and surprisingly large.

Wasn't it supposed to be scary? I have only one thought in my heart inexplicably - is it really good to match red and green?
