Chapter 430: The Dark Room
Since the light rain, the weather has obviously cooled, but Lao Wu sat shirtless at the door early in the morning and smoked, smoking a mouthful, the ash was almost longer than the cigarette, Lao Wu didn't notice, he had a nightmare again last night. He dreamed that he was lying at the mouth of the well in the courtyard at night, and something was climbing up the shaking rope at the bottom of the dark and dark well, but Lao Wu couldn't move or dodge, and finally crawled out of a female paper figure from below, dressed in bright red, but with a human face, not a simple paper person. The dream became clearer and closer, as if something was getting closer to him. Thinking of this old Wu Meng's reaction, he suddenly turned his head to look behind him, but the brothers were still sleeping, and the outhouse was empty and cold, and there was no one else except himself.
Lao Wu threw down the cigarette butt, rubbed his hands together on his face vigorously, and after putting his hands down, he showed tired eyes, he was old and tired, and he couldn't afford to toss anymore, he really wanted to find a place to live a down-to-earth life, but Jiang Nan has always made him feel like he was hooking up, but even if she could be with herself, it was impossible to be in Lushi County, she had to go to a place where no one knew her, and she had thought of the Northeast before, and at this time she made up her mind, and directly stood up and went back to the house to get dressed and go out.
Lao Wu didn't hesitate this time and went directly to Zhang Mao's house where Jiang Nan lived, but when he got to the door, he remembered that the girl didn't go out of the door like a ghost, saying that she entered from some tunnel, so where is the entrance and exit of this tunnel outside? This old Wu can't find it. I circled around Zhang Mao's house many times and found a place that was easy to climb. The stitching of the skin on Lao Wu's back and the healing became very tight, which also affected his flexibility, but he was a man, not too short, and climbed up the wall a little clumsily, but when he was about to jump down, he took a moment and looked at the well in the yard.
Yesterday, Lao Wu saw a woman washing her long hair by the well from the crack in the door, but when the woman turned her face, she almost didn't slump Lao Wu on the ground in fright, and she was even more shocked by Jiang Nan's sudden shoulder swing, so he was still a little stunned by the well now, afraid that something would crawl out of it and grab his legs. Even daydreaming can scare him to death.
After a while, Lao Wu turned his head and looked around. was afraid that someone would find out that he was turning over the wall of other people's houses, and then treat him as a thief, so Lao Wu hurriedly jumped off the wall. As a result, he didn't move much for nearly a month, and his legs were weak and he couldn't eat. Directly pounced on the dog that fell and gnawed on the mud. Thanks to no one seeing. Otherwise, Lao Wu's old face would be lost.
I got up and patted the soil, turned my head to look at the house with the doors and windows closed, and everywhere was deserted and unpopular. It looks like someone lives, but since Jiang Nan said that Lao Wu also believed her, he touched the window and subconsciously looked inside a few times, but it was very dark and he couldn't see anything. Seeing this, Lao Wu wanted to raise his hand and knock a few times, but before he could make a move, he suddenly poked out an eye from behind the crack in the window and stared at Lao Wu, startling him, and was just about to raise his leg to run but heard Jiang Nan in the house shouting: "What are you running?" Come back! ā
Lao Wu immediately breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that it was Jiang Nan, turned around and saw that the window was opened, and Jiang Nan in the room waved his hand at Lao Wu to let him pass. Lao Wu looked at Jiang Nan and stretched out his little hand to greet him, and suddenly his heart became happy, Jiang Nan's handsome little appearance is not enough for him, if he can be his daughter-in-law, it will really be green smoke on the ancestral grave.
While being happy, he ran over, stood in front of the window and looked at Jiang Nan's pretty face, grinned and said, "I thought you lied to me!" I didn't expect you to really be able to live, I have something to do with you."
"Don't be so loud, come in and talk!"
Jiang Nan was sitting on the kang, moved a few times to make way, and waited for Lao Wu to climb in, Jiang Nan pulled the window up, and suddenly the room was dark, and there was a choking musty smell, and the dust everywhere was quite thick, and it looked like it couldn't live in people.
Lao Wu felt strange and was about to ask her why this house was so dirty, and suddenly his arm was grabbed by Jiang Nan, and he slowly went down from the kang, and actually walked all the way to the side of the big wooden box in the house, and then Jiang Nan actually reached out to the side of the box in front of Lao Wu, held a raised wooden strip and pulled it backhand to open the side of the wooden box, and inside was a relatively narrow dark staircase, and there was still a light underneath. Lao Wu was dumbfounded after seeing it, thinking that Zhang Mao's family had already become their cover, and it turned out that there was a hole in the ground.
With a surprised expression, he followed Jiang Nan and bent down into the tunnel, below was a rectangle of ten square meters and two meters high, surrounded by a lot of miscellaneous items and a small bed, the bedding on the bed was neatly folded, and there was a smell of women's incense powder in the air. There was a table at the foot of the bed, on which was placed an iron box with an antenna, although Lao Wu had never seen it, he had heard a lot of things about spies, and knew that it was almost used to send telegrams.
This should not be an authentic tunnel, but a dark room hidden under Cen Zhang Mao's house on the southern slope, and the place is very small, and the light of a candle is bright enough for Lao Wu to see the surroundings clearly. There was nothing that looked useful except for the telegraph and the table, but there was a small wooden door embedded in the wall in the corner of the south to the east, Lao Wu walked over and pulled the low wooden door open with a light pull, and suddenly a cool breeze blew in front of him, behind the door was a long and narrow passage, the end was dark and lightless, but the ventilation and the ground should be open, and he suddenly understood that Jiang Nan was going back and forth from this tunnel.
After understanding what was going on, Lao Wu closed the door with his hand, Jiang Nan kept standing behind Lao Wu with a smile and did not disturb Lao Wu's exploration, Lao Wu turned around and almost collided with her head-on, Jiang Nan raised his hand a little embarrassed and touched the hair behind him and said with a smile: "What are you doing here in broad daylight?" ā
When Lao Wu heard this, he immediately remembered, if he didn't move around during the day, why didn't he stay overnight at night? Eyes looked around casually, thinking about it in his heart and unconsciously stayed on the telegraph, Jiang Nan looked for his gaze, and explained: "This thing is used to send messages from afar, but I don't use it anymore, and I don't plan to go back, I want to find a good family to live a good life." ā
Lao Wu was also let go at this time, so he smiled and continued: "Although I am a little older, I am still a good person, it is better for you to live with me, I will definitely take you better than myself!" ā
But after speaking, seeing Jiang Nan's reaction, Lao Wu was stunned, Jiang Nan actually lowered his head and blushed slightly, raised his eyes and peeked at Lao Wu, raised his hand to punch him and laughed: "Virtue!" Do you dare to ask me? ā
Lao Wu finally got the answer, grabbed Jiang Nan's hand that was about to be withdrawn, clenched it tightly and didn't plan to let go, his heart trembled, and he lowered his voice and said with a trill: "Dare!" Why don't you dare! IāI'm going to Tohoku, will you follow me? ā
Jiang Nan raised his face after hearing this, still smiling, and nodded lightly to Lao Wu. (To be continued......)
