Chapter 4 Tang Ning
Li Ran opened a room in front of the station with his stolen ID card, picked up the mobile phone he had just brought on the hotel counter and called Xiaomei. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Little sister, it's me, don't talk, listen to me."
Li Ran lowered his voice and said, "You know that there is a fog over there in Jingjin Tang, right?" At present, some parts of the Northeast should also be foggy, this is not a simple fog, this is a biochemical attack from abroad, the situation has begun to appear in East China, but for some reason the government has blocked the news, so you outsiders don't know yet. The virus contained in the fog will mutate mosquitoes, and the mutated mosquitoes will infect the human body with germs after sucking human blood, and they will cause symptoms of irritability and madness, which is extremely dangerous. Don't worry about me, do as I say, go back to your hometown in the countryside at once, and get all the things I'm going to tell you next......"
After hanging up the phone, Li Ran removed the battery of the mobile phone and threw it into the trash.
"I can't leave in a short time......"
Li Ran reluctantly opened the curtains, and directly opposite was the Suyan Railway Station under the lights, and at this time, countless people could be seen gathered in the square in front of the station, because the train was suspended, and they, like Li Ran, were forced to stay in Suyan City.
"What should I do......"
Li Ran closed the curtains, moved the chair in the room to the bathroom, sat in front of the mirror, looked at the slightly immature face in the mirror, and smiled bitterly in his heart.
Li Ran is 26 years old this year, this age is still too young in the eyes of many people, but in fact, what he has experienced is something that the whole world has never experienced, the suffering he has suffered is not something ordinary people can imagine, and the immaturity on his face cannot represent the perseverance in his heart.
Li Ran pulled out his backpack and began to prepare the disguise props, his own mobile phone had already rang several times before, he knew that he was wanted by the police station now, and for the sake of safety, he had to change his appearance.
An hour later, an old man in his fifties and sixties walked out of the bathroom, old and frail, walking trembling and bent at the waist, with furrow-like wrinkles all over a dry face, but if you look closely, there are a pair of deep and bright eyes in the slightly sunken eye sockets.
After changing his appearance, Li Ran walked around twice in the house imitating the steps of the elderly, then straightened up and came to the door, opened the crack in the door and took a look, there was no one in the corridor, and then he bowed his waist and walked out of the room again.
There was a mess at the front desk, it turned out that the girl who was looking at the front desk lost her mobile phone, and called the police, and the two police officers were checking the monitoring with the little girl.
"No, this man didn't take it, he didn't seem to take this either, how could it be gone, I obviously kept it at hand."
Because of the blind spot, the camera can't see the counter, and everyone who comes to check in happens to block the front desk.
After the disguise, Li Ran left the hotel tremblingly, without arousing anyone's suspicion, and no one even wanted to look at him twice.
"It's starting to fog up......"
At nine o'clock in the evening, a layer of mist rose in Suyan City, and if he hadn't known in advance, Li Ran would have felt that it was not fog but pollution.
Li Ran hunched his back and walked on the crowded street.
"Since you can't go home anytime soon, let's go see her......"
There was a woman who once saved Li Ran's life, Li Ran thought about going to her, but the longing for his family disturbed his thinking, and now he couldn't leave Suyan City, so the secondary task was to see her, Li Ran knew that she opened a restaurant at the gate of the fifteenth middle school before the blood moon was empty.
It was a woman two years older than Li Ran, and she was also one of the strongest people Li Ran had ever seen. After the blood moon is in the sky, most women have become a burden, but she is not, she knows how to protect herself better than men, and especially, she has a great compassion in Li Ran's eyes.
Li Ran's eyes were a little red, he sniffed, stopped a taxi, and said in a hoarse voice, "Go to the fifteenth middle school." ”
"Okay, uncle."
"Huh?"
As soon as Li Ran heard this voice, his eyes lit up, because he was very familiar with this voice, Li Ran sat in the back seat and moved to the middle, and saw the driver's appearance through the rearview mirror, and his heart immediately lit up.
Sure enough, it's him, Chen Yang!
"Young man, are you tired of driving at night?"
Li Ran suppressed his voice and chatted with the driver.
"Hey, what can you do if you're tired, don't you have to support your family?"
"Didn't think about doing anything else? Like opening your own wrought iron shop? ”
"Huh?"
The driver listened to Li Ran's words, glanced sideways at Li Ran in the rearview mirror, and didn't know him, so he said: "It's a coincidence, I really want to open an iron shop by myself, I have already had such a plan, but the money is not enough." I thought about driving for another two years and doing it when I had saved enough money. ”
"Hmm."
"Uncle, I see that you are about the same age as my father, my father is an iron carpenter, and he played with my father's wrought iron factory when he was a child, do you see those wrought iron gates? Give me the tools and I can figure it out, it's not that I'm bragging, just our Suyan City, I really can't find a few masters who are better than my father's skills, hehe, I'm not bad. ”
"Well, wrought iron is a good thing, young man, in which wrought iron factory did your father work?"
"Hey, my dad has been dead for several years, and he used to work in an iron shop at the zoo, uncle, what are you going to do?"
"The gate of my yard is broken, and I want to change it, but I haven't found a good craft. If the money is not bad, the craftsmanship is bad. ”
"Hey, you've really found the right person, I can do this job myself, I'll call you later?"
"I'll leave you an address, are you free tomorrow morning?"
"I'm free at any time, the tools at home are ready-made, tomorrow morning I will go to buy materials and I will be able to arrive at your house at nine o'clock at the latest, just fifteen east of the east, right, okay, I know, you get off slowly, oh uncle, your bag is not light, do you want me to send you home?"
Li Ran told Chen Yang the address.
"Don't bother."
Li Ran watched the taxi leave, and his heart blossomed, this is the famous "God Killer Group" big brother after the blood moon, not only has a good mind, but also is proficient in traps and bow and crossbow manufacturing, and most importantly, he knows Wing Chun, but it is not the kind that is staged on TV, Chen Yang's Wing Chun is not a fist, but a knife, and ordinary people are not his opponents at all.
Li Ran once heard Chen Yang say that his ancestral home was in Tianjin, and his grandfather once learned the art of a certain master of Wing Chun, which was later passed on to Chen Yang's father, and then to Chen Yang.
Li Ran had a good relationship with Chen Yang in his previous life, and Chen Yang instructed Li Ran in kung fu at that time, but unfortunately Li Ran had an injury to his waist at that time, and he learned to form but not to refine.
At ten o'clock at nine, the fifteenth middle school had already finished school, and the three or five snack bars opposite were full of people, among which there was a snack bar called Tangjia Liangpi, which was Li Ran's destination this time.
Li Ran stood at the school gate for a while, he knew Tang Ning, if he went directly to her, even if he was an old man now, he would be blasted out by Tang Ning as a porcelain.
"Tang Ning's house is an independent courtyard, there is no problem on Chen Yang's side, as long as this courtyard is taken, it can be effectively defended in the early stage of the blood moon after reinforcement."
Li Ran thought for a while, and walked two hundred meters to the east along the road, because it is located outside the second ring road of Suyan City, there is an old house in the east of the fifteenth year that has not yet been demolished, all of them are two-story independent small buildings, each with a yard of more than 100 square meters, Li Ran came to the courtyard of Tang Ning's house, there was no light nearby, Li Ran jumped on the wall and hid his backpack in the garden of the yard.
Back to the opposite side of the 15th Middle School, Li Ran soaked his coat in the stagnant water on the side of the road and put it back on his body, wiped his face with mud, picked up a wooden stick and walked to the door of the Tangjia Liangpi shop with the stick, dressed as a beggar.
"Hey, hey, hey! Hurry up and go, don't pestle at the door of my house! ”
The guy at the snack bar saw Li then go out and shouted, glared at him with disdain, and muttered again: "Where did the beggar come from, his body stinks." ”
Seeing that Li Ran was still standing at the door and looking in, he suddenly became angry, and just wanted to go up and push Li Ran away, but the proprietress of the small restaurant behind him shouted: "Give him a dollar, don't yell at others." ”
"Oh."
The young man pouted and reluctantly walked up and handed Li Ran a coin in his hand, Li Ran looked down at the coin in the young man's hand and did not reach out to take it.
"Hey, isn't that too much? Just a dollar, don't pull it down! ”
The young man was angry, put the money in his pocket, turned around and entered the snack bar, and shouted inside: "Boss, he doesn't want it." ”
The proprietress peeked inside and stepped back.
Seeing the familiar Tang Ning, Li Ran held back tears and pretended not to know her.
Tang Ning, the proprietress of the snack bar, walked out of the snack bar, holding two white steamed buns and a cup of soy milk in her hands, although it was a cool skin shop, there were also some staple foods, she walked to Li Ran's side, suddenly frowned, and said: "Oh, uncle, what kind of smell is so big on your body, take it, please go over there to eat, we still have to do business." ”
Tang Ning was dressed very simply, but she couldn't hide her bewitching figure, she picked her thin eyebrows and stuffed the steamed bun into Li Ran's dirty hand, rubbed her hands and glanced at Li Ran with pity, sighed and turned to walk back.
Li Ran still didn't speak, he looked at the steamed buns and soy milk in his hand, and suddenly went crazy and had to squat down and stuff the steamed buns into his mouth, and the steamed buns the size of an adult's fist were eaten by him in two bites, and he didn't use a straw for the soy milk, he bit it open directly with his teeth, and poured it down.
As soon as Tang Ning walked into the snack bar with his front foot, Li Ran behind him had already eaten up two steamed buns and a cup of soy milk, so he heard Li Ran squatting on the ground and pressing his throat and saying, "It's still ...... Anything else? Hungry. ”
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, turned around and looked at Li Ran, and said to the guy in the store: "Go get three steamed buns, by the way, fill him with another cup of soy milk." ”
After a while, most of the students who came to eat left, and the snack bar was quiet, and the proprietress stood at the door and looked, probably because she was busy in the store just now, and there were fine beads of sweat on her pretty face.
"Hey, uncle, why are you still here?"
Li Ran was full, leaned against the wall in a daze, after listening to Tang Ning's question, he opened his mouth, but did not speak, Tang Ning looked at him, and asked again: "Uncle, what about your family?" ”
Li Ran still didn't answer her words, and Tang Ning was helplessly silent.
After a while, Tang Ning saw the young man leave, and turned to look at Li Ran, it was very strange, she had seen a lot of beggars, basically there were people who came to beg for food every day, and she could send them away if she gave five cents a piece, but this beggar was a little different, he didn't want money, just food, looking at the way he ate just now, it seemed that he had been hungry for a long time, and although he was sloppy, his pants and shoes were relatively clean, not like a beggar who had been begging for a long time.
"Uncle, is there anyone else in your family? Do you remember your family's phone number? ”
“……”
"Why don't I send you to the police station?"
“……”
Tang Ning asked a few questions in a row, but Li Ran still ignored her, seeing that he didn't look like a dementia or a fool, maybe he had his own unspeakable secrets, so he didn't ask anymore.
Tang Ning had no choice but to go back to the store, locked the glass door after cleaning up, pulled down the roller shutter door, and stopped just two steps after raising her foot, and said in surprise: "Oh uncle, why are you still sitting here?" ”
Li Ran raised his head and glanced at Tang Ning, but did not say anything.
Tang Ning saw that he ignored himself, so he simply ignored him and walked home, walked a few steps and stopped, and walked a few steps to stop again, she stood in place and looked back at Li Ran, suddenly turned around and walked quickly towards Li Ran, without saying a word, she pulled Li Ran's arm and said: "Uncle, you can't sit here, come with me, it just so happens that I have a lot of houses, stay with me tonight, and I will send you to the police station tomorrow." ”
