Chapter 168: Confrontation (1)
The ancients said: You can't have both fish and bear's paws, this is true for Concubine Yu, and the same is true for Cha Wenbin. A husband loves him because he loves him, admires him and loves him, and wants to serve him sincerely, but since he got married, there are really not many such opportunities. If Cha Wenbin was an ordinary peasant disciple, would she have been so desperate at a glance? The answer is not necessarily. The other married her because she owed her pity to her, and wanted to be able to take care of her for the rest of her life, and to pay off those love debts that could not be paid off after all, but since she got married, there are not many such opportunities. Since ancient times, a manly man has done something and not done something, and a person like him who cares about the world cannot and cannot be bound by the family.
Where's Romon? In the deep mountains of Luomen back then, Cha Wenbin only remembered that he was in the north, and he rode the jeep for several days. The world is big, and the Solham is small, it is like a drop in the ocean, they can't find it, they can't find it, so they put their hopes on those "friends".
The land of Guanzhong in December is also a bleak, after eating a bowl of hot and spicy noodles, the fat man wiped his mouth full of oil and was addicted, and the last time he ate it was when he fled from the Northeast. Where is the Ding family? That's very easy to find, from the east of the city to the east of the direction of three miles of land there is a secluded place located in the downtown area, some people say that it is the best feng shui place in Xi'an, the purple air east comes to the dragon to raise its head, the periphery is a circle of national acacia that has not known to have hundreds of years, there are a few rows of pigeons that retract their heads into feathers on the trees with teeth and claws.
Behind the acacia tree is a row of small gray brick walls, and at the top of the high wall is a ring of very rare wires, which is to tell the daring thieves that this place is not to be crossed. In contrast to the imposing wall, there is a slightly shabby little door, which opens. There is a pair of stone lions at the door, the left male and the right female. The male lion opened his mouth to look at the believers, and the lioness kept her mouth shut to protect her son, and some said that this meant that the wealth of the master's family only went in and out.
The carving of the lion's base pattern is also extraordinary, with a bottle, plate and three halberds carved on the front, symbolizing the "third level of ascension"; The right side is engraved with peonies and pines and cypresses, symbolizing "wealth and longevity"; The left side is engraved with the "Four Treasures of the Study", symbolizing the "Literary Style"; The back is carved with "Bagua Taiji Map", which symbolizes "the evil spirits of the town of demons". This posture alone teaches people to know that the people behind this door are different, the location of the door is a small street, there are one or two vendors leaning on the stone lion to set up stalls, which was unimaginable in the past, and now this Ding Shengwu also knows how to reconcile with the people.
Knocking on the door, after a while an old man with a hunched waist and a small hat came to open the door, he looked these young people up and down, those eyes have already read countless people, who comes to whom to do what can be seen at a glance. Among the three young people, the white-clothed one is not a child of the mortal family at first glance, and the smiling young man on the side reveals a maturity and stability beyond this age, and the tall man on the far right exudes a bandit smell from top to bottom, if he must be a stick before liberation, he will be beaten out!
Seeing that someone opened the door, the fat man opened his mouth and said, "Is Old Man Ding at home?" ”
As if he hadn't heard, the old man closed the door from the inside out, otherwise the fat man would have to eat a closed door early in the morning.
The fat man propped up the half of the door with his hand and said, "Hey, I said that you old man is so boring, don't you even recognize your aunt coming to the door?" ”
"If you don't leave, don't blame me for being rude, such an uneducated offspring, don't you know how to call and ask again?"
"Yes," the fat man understands, this big family has always talked about the rules, and he is afraid that he has broken the rules, and he has always been no big or small with the old man, who knew that a gatekeeper below would even play with himself.
"Big brother, I'm sorry," at this time Cha Wenbin stepped forward and said: "We are friends with the old man Ding Shengwu, this little name is Zuoshi, and the friendship with your Miss Jiu'er is also shallow, dare to ask the old man can be in the house, please let you give a report, and say that the junior Cha Wenbin is here to visit." ”
The old man said suspiciously: "You are Cha Wenbin?" He often heard the name of the head of the family and the young lady on his lips, and when he saw it today, he didn't expect it to be such a young man, so he nodded slightly and said, "Wait a minute, wait for me to report it." "Close the door gently as usual, this rule is like this, which makes the fat man sigh that big families just like to blind the rules.
It didn't take long to hear a woman's voice chattering in the back room, and you could recognize it as Jiu'er from afar, and sure enough, as soon as she opened the door, she rushed out, and just wanted to raise her hand to give them a high-five but put it down, probably because she was afraid of the old man behind......
"Brother Wen Bin, Sister Feng, I haven't seen you for a long time." She deliberately chose not to greet the fat man, who also had an indifferent expression with his hands on his chest.
Old man Ding was not there, saying that he left Xi'an a few days ago, and he didn't know where he went, before leaving, he seemed to expect Cha Wenbin to come, and specially told Jiu'er that if he came, he would stay with him for a few more days.
This news naturally made Cha Wenbin a little disappointed, and he got up and prepared to say goodbye after drinking a cup of tea, but Jiu'er said: "Do you still want to go to Hunan, don't bother, all the people of the five major families have been called away, which is very rare." ”
The fat man was a little dissatisfied: "Since you know that we are coming to find the old man, why don't you send us a telegram back and cause us to run for nothing?" ”
"Telegram? I didn't receive the telegram," Jiu'er looked at the old man on the side and said, "Grandpa Hu, do you have a telegram from grandpa at home?" ”
The old man bowed slightly, "Miss, I didn't receive it." ”
"Look, I'll just say no." Jiu'er pouted and said, "If there is, Grandpa Hu will send it to Grandpa's study as soon as possible, not to mention that you sent it, it must have been lost at the post office." ”
Although this reason sounds a little reliable, the fat man still doesn't believe it, the old mahogany furniture in this place, and the various furnishings in the room are of extraordinary value at a glance, but this is not what he wants to stay in now. Several people looked at each other, and finally decided to leave, Cha Wenbin got up again and said: "We still have some important things to deal with, so let's leave today, and when the old man comes back, I will tell him that Wenbin has come." ”
Seeing that those people were really leaving, Jiu'er was a little anxious, "Wait! ”
"What's the matter?" Cha Wenbin expected that she would still be unable to hold her breath after all, and since the first time they met, he read from Jiu'er's eyes that she was trying her best to hide something. A lady like Jiu'er can't lie, and she doesn't care about lying, even if the expression on her face is in place, she still can't hide her nervous expression.
As if to make an extremely difficult decision, Jiu'er stomped his feet and said: "Grandpa is really, why do you have to hide it, okay, let me tell you the truth, they went to Huoshan County." Grandpa didn't mean not to let me say it, but he was afraid that you would be in danger if you went. ”
Feng Qiyun, Ye Qiu and the fat man almost said a bad word at the same time! No one would have thought that Rohmon would be so upset, didn't they already get what they wanted?
Almost non-stop rushed back to Huoshan County, the air tickets for that year and month were very tight, and it took Jiu'er many weeks to get it, and they returned to Huoshan that night.
Feng Qiyun said that no one would be able to enter the village without the help of an old boatman to lead the way, not even himself. The Feng clan strictly abides by the ancient precepts, everyone has their own division of labor, and those who master this waterway are passed down from generation to generation, and how to identify those marks left by themselves are only known by the old people who shuttle through this river every day.
"So, at least the village is safe now?"
"Not necessarily," Feng Qiyun said: "Ye Qiu's memory is amazing, and he has the ability to never forget, if he ...... it himself" Saying this, her eyes began to dim again, brother, there are all your dearest, do you really want to raise your butcher knife?
The dam of the reservoir was very windy, and it was so difficult to walk up a step or two, and you could see some firelight swaying there, and it seemed that they were really coming.
The fat man pulled Feng Qiyun and squatted in the grass far away, and he said, "Look what you want to do, is this going to play the Battle of Chibi?" ”
"Why don't you avoid it for a while and let me come forward." Cha Wenbin said: "Before the last jade ring is unearthed, after all, you won't do anything to me, if you are rash...... I'm having a hard time guaranteeing your safety. ”
"I'll go with you," said the fat man, "if the old man is here, he won't do anything to me." ”
Walking one after the other, walking on the wide dam, what a lonely back, the bleak north wind blowing so that people can't open their eyes, the hula tents and the torches that have been pulled by the wind show the incomparable strength of Romon.
"Coming?" Ye Huan seemed to have expected it a long time ago, he was like a ghost, facing Cha Wenbin with such appreciation.
Cha Wenbin didn't talk nonsense, and said bluntly: "It's here, where is the thing?" Where are the people? ”
Ye Huan said: "You don't have to worry about this, in fact, it doesn't matter much if you come or not, I will tell you the final coordinates." ”
"Are you guys here camping?" The fat man sneered: "It's really interesting, so many people have come to bully a quiet mountain villager, you Rohmon really deserve to be a licensed robber." ”
Cha Wenbin said: "Tell me, where is Ye Qiu?" ”
Ye Huan chuckled: "You have to tell me first, where is the Feng family kid." ”
