Chapter 115: Strange Old Man
Of course, no one knows which high-ranking official or what reason offended this mysterious old gentleman. It was able to lead him to hate "officials" so much.
However, regarding this, Qin Zhen was not very worried about this. Because he himself is an ordinary person, and he is an ordinary ordinary person. The position is neutral, has nothing to do with politics, and is indifferent and easy-going. He felt that no matter what kind of old man he was with, it should be relatively easy to communicate.
Looking at Yu Dong again, it seems that even if he doesn't open his mouth, just looking at his face is enough to make that weird-tempered uncle blast out directly. So He Xi's construction still makes sense, if you can't let him speak, try not to let him speak.
"Tell me, what do you need to ask the old man?" Qin Zhen opened his mouth and asked Yu Dong.
Yu Dong thought for a moment, and then replied very seriously: "In addition to the regular changes in the tide, there are some strange things in the sky and the sea. Every vision that has happened here, we have to figure it out. Especially what happened to the dragon soldiers recently, He Xi didn't know everything. Or rather, she only knows part of it. ”
Qin Zhen nodded, thinking that what Yu Dong said was very reasonable. Since they knew that there were internal ghosts, Qin Zhen didn't believe the so-called official information so much.
After getting a general idea of what Yuto wanted to know, the two of them were chatting about it, and the car had already driven to a beautiful coast.
When I got out of the car, I found that this small fishing house was actually built on the beach on the coast.
A structure made of wood, the entire building hangs over the shore. Large floor-to-ceiling windows. Bright and clean. The exterior walls are glued with strange shells, which are very distinctive. On the roof there is a real small fishing boat, and on the fishing boat there is an old fisherman with a carved wood carving, wearing a cloak and a hat, sitting in the bow of the boat, holding a fishing rod, facing the direction of the sea. The four corners of the eaves are hung with wind chimes, with shells, starfish, and strange little things, and when the sea breeze blows, there will be a crisp and pleasant sound.
It was the first time they had walked on soft sand like this. Qin Zhen and Yudong walked along the beach to the small restaurant with a lot of style, and said jokingly: "Xia Yudong." I'm not very demanding. Wait until our mission is a complete success. Invite me to have a few drinks in a place like this! ”
For such words, Qin Zhen was used to Yudong's always ignoring them. Because he doesn't know what he can do, he won't agree lightly. Even if it's a meal.
Either you don't say it, or you have to do it. Do what you say. Say what you can do. This has always been his basic principle.
I didn't expect it. This time, Yudong replied very simply: "Okay." ”
It was Qin Zhen's surprised kung fu. They had already walked up the wooden steps to the door of the hotel.
There are doors in the front and back of the hotel, or doors on all sides. You can always walk out from all directions and face the sea. There are some small wooden tables and chairs in the wooden corridor, sitting in such a place, listening to the sound of wind chimes and the sound of the waves at the same time, and the heart should be as broad and heroic as the sea, what else can you not see?
The curtain at the entrance was also made of shells and small snails, Qin Zhen couldn't believe that such a place with a dreamy little fun everywhere could be run by an old man with a strange temper?
Probably because they came too early and it wasn't time to eat. To be exact, it is probably not open yet.
As soon as Qin Zhen and Yu Dong lifted the curtain and came in, the sound of a rattle alarmed the people in the back kitchen.
I only heard a crisp and sweet voice coming from the back kitchen: "You came too early, and it's not open yet!" As soon as the voice fell, a little girl in her twenties walked out of the back kitchen door. A pair of big watery eyes with the aura of the ocean, hands that seem to be cleaning up fish, and plastic gloves and sleeves.
When she came out and saw Qin Zhen and Yu Dong, those big eyes suddenly couldn't move away from Yu Dong's body. That kind of girlish feeling that has just opened up makes her blush in front of a man like Yudong.
For such a situation, Qin Zhen is actually understandable, and he has long been used to it. With Yu Dong's temperament, appearance, posture, aura, and the indescribable elegance and excellence in his bones, it is enough to kill all kinds of women in seconds. Not to mention...... Is it this young and ignorant little sister?
Seeing the little girl staring at Yu Dong and couldn't take her eyes off, Qin Zhen couldn't help but cough dryly on the side. And Yudong stood on the opposite side like that, without saying a word, as if he hadn't seen anyone.
To outsiders, this man may seem unfathomable and ruthless. But in fact...... He just remembered He Xi and Qin Zhen's advice - don't speak!
Qin Zhen saw that the little sister was still stunned and looked at Yu Dong, so he had no choice but to walk over and wave in front of her and ask; "Hi...... Sister? Is the boss there? ”
"Oh...... Grandpa, grandpa is behind him, it's not open yet, he's working on new dishes. The little girl was very embarrassed and said to Qin Zhen with a red face and embarrassment.
Seeing such an innocent side of this sister, Qin Zhen began to regret a little that he didn't bring Lao Gu here. It really has to be such a cannon barrel to ask for important information directly and neatly and quickly.
Qin Zhen glanced back at Yudong and found that he was squinting at himself with a strange gaze. The expression was clearly saying, "Aren't you capable?" Didn't you say that I can't chat or communicate? Didn't you tell me to shut up and not talk? It's a pity, young master, that I can make people incoherent at this station. Come, come, let me see how you really are "good at communicating".
Qin Zhen held his breath and turned his head to look at the girl again, and found that she was still looking at Yu Dong's indifferent face affectionately.
It was really unbearable, Qin Zhen simply stood in front of the girl's eyes, completely blocking her sight. And raised his voice and said, "Eh, girl! Do you see what I've done? Although it's not as eye-catching as him, there's still a lot of living people here! ”
"Ah...... Not yet open. "The girl is really incoherent.
Qin Zhen helplessly helped his forehead, and said in his heart that this is really not good for going out! It's easy to blame the old man, but this young and ignorant little nymphomaniac is really not easy to do. Who hasn't been young, right? It doesn't seem appropriate to say anything now......
At this moment, an old voice came from the back kitchen: "Girl, who are you talking to?" The guests came too early. ”
"Ah, grandpa...... They seem to be looking for you. The little girl blushed and said hesitantly.
"Oh? Is it the grandson of the old Wang family who wants to go to sea? Sue him, the Yellow Bohai Sea will be treacherous within ten days, remember to set sail! The old man was busy in the back kitchen, and at the same time he said these words as if he were talking about home.
Qin Zhen couldn't help but turn his head to look out the window, the sky outside was clear, the wind was calm, it was a rare good weather, and it was a good time to go to sea. But the old man said so firmly that Huang Bohai would be "treacherous" within ten days. It's as if he's seen through something......
Looking at the sky outside, and listening to the old man's words, Qin Zhen and Yu Dong glanced at each other, and had to believe that this old man was the "Bohai Tong" who lived up to his real name.
Of course, the girl knew that the two people in front of her were not the "grandson of Lao Wang" in the old man's mouth, but as soon as she saw Yudong, she was speechless like a shy girl in her first love. So I couldn't reply to the old man for a long time.
The old man waited impatiently, and finally came out from behind. While walking, he doted on and blamed: "Stinky girl, are you lazy again?" Today's fish is fresh! There's a lot of work to be done in the back......"
As the old man was talking, he saw Qin Zhen and Yu Dong standing in the house.
The old man was dressed in very simple clothes and trousers, and his body was thin but very energetic. The perennial sea breeze blew red his wrinkled face, full of the marks of vicissitudes. However, those piercing and keen eyes made Qin Zhen feel like an eagle.
Qin Zhen showed a kind and honest smile as much as possible, and happily showed a friendly and respectful smile to the old man. But the old man only glanced at Qin Zhen hurriedly, and then once again stopped his gaze on Yu Dong, who had never said a word.
Qin Zhen sighed helplessly in his heart, can this/mother's face be suitable for both young and old?
But since I have a task on my body, I don't have time to worry about these problems now. Just as Qin Zhen was about to open his mouth politely, the old man suddenly said with a cold face: "My place is small, and I can't accommodate a big Bodhisattva." It's not open today, so please come back! With that, the old man turned around very indifferently and walked back to the back kitchen. didn't even give Qin Zhen a chance to say a word.
Qin Zhen stood in place in a daze, stupid! He didn't even think that he hadn't even said a word! The old man just glanced at the two of them casually, and then directly ordered the expulsion?! What's the point?
Qin Zhen subconsciously looked back at Yudong, worried if there was something wrong with him and there was a flaw? But Yu Dong was looking at him indifferently at the moment, and he didn't even move!
That...... So what did this strange old man see?
"A small place can't accommodate a big bodhisattva" How does this bebeginning?
Don't look at Yudong, he is a major general, but he has no officialdom habits at all. He is definitely a person who is so unworldly that it is impossible for anyone to see him as a high-ranking official at a glance.
Even when Qin Zhen and the others first met Yudong, didn't they know his true identity as a major general until the end?
This old man just glanced at it so faintly, and solved the case?
Qin Zhen really couldn't believe it, and he couldn't accept the fact that he volunteered to help, but in the end, he went straight to the field before he even came in handy! (To be continued......)
