Chapter 2: Nervousness
Xiangzi didn't expect the girl to make such a move, and immediately blushed, Zhang Baiguan and Chen Xiaozi looked at Xiangzi in surprise, looking curious about the giant panda.
And the girl had already disappeared into the crowd.
Shoko was stunned for a moment, then turned around and walked into the house, when nothing happened.
Chen Xiaozi called out to Master Zhang Baiguan and said, "Master, why did you say that Uncle Xiangzi's face was red." ”
Zhang Baiguan smiled and said nothing, touched Chen Xiaozi's head with his hand and said, "Maybe it was sunburned, you see that the weather is so hot now." ”
Chen Xiaozi looked up at the sky, the weather was dark, as if it was going to rain. Chen Xiaozi turned his head and looked at Zhang Baiguan, and said in his heart: Master is really not an ordinary person.
Zhang Baiguan shouted, and Chen Xiaozi turned around and entered the store.
To say that the teapot that Zhang Baiguan gave to the girl is really worth a little money, thinking about the girl's wit, Zhang Baiguan couldn't help but sigh, a good treasure of the town store, just give it away.
However, what Zhang Baiguan said just now that he was going to see his relatives is true, and he has been back for a few days, and he has not been to visit the seventh master, and I don't know how the seventh master is.
Shoko sat in the chair, a little uneasy, fidgeting, such a behavior may be normal for others, but it is extremely abnormal for Shoko.
Zhang Baiguan lay on the counter and said, "Xiangzi, am I going to go to the Seventh Master?"
Xiangzi blurted out, "No, Brother Zhang." ”
"Then you stay and look at the store, I'll take the kid over. ”
After Zhang Baiguan finished speaking, he took Chen Xiaozi's hand and walked to the door of the store, but after a few steps, Xiangzi followed.
"Brother Zhang, I thought about it and decided to go with you to visit the Seventh Master. ”
"Uncle Xiangzi, aren't you going?"
"There's no business in the store anyway, so it's okay to go out for a walk with Brother Zhang. ”
Chen Xiaozi sighed.
Zhang Baiguan understood in his heart, but he didn't say anything, and the group walked in the direction of the seventh master's house, because the place where the seventh master lived was in the old city of Xi'an, and the carp's residence was also there, so every time he walked here, Zhang Baiguan couldn't help but think of the carp.
I don't know if the carp is dead or alive now.
I saw Lu Xiaoqing last time, but unfortunately I didn't get any news about the carp.
Zhang Baiguan walked to the door of the seventh master with a smile, the house was still the same house, but now it looked even more lifeless.
It seems to have cast a shadow on it Yes, Zhang Baiguan habitually stepped forward and knocked on the door, and Zhang Baiguan couldn't remember how many times it had knocked on the quaint door.
It was Xiaoqiang who opened the door. After Xiaoqiang opened the door and saw Zhang Baiguan, he was obviously stunned, but he didn't speak, just let Zhang Baiguan come in.
"How has the Seventh Master been lately?" Zhang Baiguan asked Xiaoqiang.
Xiaoqiang's face was not good-looking, and he said to Zhang Baiguan: "The seventh master has not been good lately. ”
"What's wrong?"
Xiaoqiang stopped talking, and Zhang Baiguan walked quickly towards the back room without delay.
I saw the seventh master sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, the lacquer of the Taishi chair had peeled off due to the passage of time, and the seventh master did not react when he saw Zhang Baiguan coming.
Zhang Baiguan tentatively called out to the seventh master, but the seventh master did not respond.
Zhang Baiguan approached the seventh master and found that the seventh master's eyes were dumbfounded, and there was no depth at all as before, Zhang Baiguan looked back at Xiaoqiang.
Xiaoqiang said a little sadly: "The seventh master has suffered a stroke and is paralyzed. ”
After hearing the news, Zhang Baiguan's head was covered, how can such a shrewd old man say that he is paralyzed!
"Seventh Master. Zhang Baiguan almost didn't believe it, and called out the seventh master again.
But the Seventh Master just laughed stupidly.
After Zhang Baiguan saw this smile, he finally understood, and had to accept this fact, the seventh master did have a stroke.
I don't know why Zhang Baiguan suddenly felt a little sad.
Just when Zhang Baiguan was stunned, the seventh master suddenly laughed wildly, saliva kept flowing from the corners of his mouth, and the hand with the broken palm kept pointing in one direction.
I don't know what I'm referring to.
"The Seventh Master is sick. Xiao Qiang hurriedly stepped forward and hugged the body of the seventh master.
Zhang Baiguan also helped press the seventh master, Xiaoqiang let go, and quickly took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and gave it to the seventh master, after the seventh master ate it, his emotions gradually calmed down, and his eyelids slowly drooped, as if his spirit was exhausted all of a sudden.
"What kind of medicine did you give the seventh master?" asked Zhang Baiguan out loud.
"Tranquilizer, Seventh Master's condition is getting worse day by day, and he can't control it at all if he doesn't take this medicine. ”
Zhang Baiguan didn't say anything.
However, Chen Xiaozi looked at the seventh master with some curiosity, because he smelled a familiar smell from the seventh master, but who had asked about this smell, Chen Xiaozi didn't think about it for a while.
Shoko returned to her previous silence and didn't say a word.
Zhang Baiguan and Xiao Qiang sat on the threshold, both of them smoked a cigarette, Xiao Qiang was silent before, and now he has changed a little more.
Xiao Qiang took a puff of cigarette from his mouth and said, "The seventh master has been very good to me since I was a child. ”
"I know. ”
"That year, I was abandoned by my parents on the grave when I was born, and it was the Seventh Master who picked me up and raised me, and all my skills were taught by the Seventh Master. ”
"Hmm. Zhang Baiguan smoked a smoky cigarette.
Xiaoqiang continued: "When I was ten years old, I followed the seventh master to the coffin, and there was an accident in the coffin, and the seventh master was the first to rescue me. ”
"The seventh master is a good person, and he has helped me a lot over the years. Zhang Baiguan said.
"Take good care of the Seventh Master. Zhang Baiguan said to Xiaoqiang.
Xiao Qiang couldn't help wiping a handful of tears, Zhang Baiguan patted Xiao Qiang's shoulder and said, "Send the seventh master to the hospital in Beijing to have a look, and I will go to Beijing with you tomorrow." ”
"That's good. "Xiaoqiang is still young, and he doesn't have an idea for many things, so Zhang Baiguan helped Xiaoqiang make up his mind.
Zhang Baiguan chatted with Xiaoqiang for a while, and then left with Xiangzi.
Chen Xiaozi kept thinking about that smell on the way back. But he never figured it out, so Chen Xiaozi called Zhang Baiguan and said, "Master, I seem to have smelled the smell of that grandfather just now." ”
Zhang Baiguan knew that Chen Xiaozi was not an ordinary child, and he might have been born with a certain ability, so when Chen Xiaozi said that he was familiar with the taste on the seventh master.
Zhang Baiguan immediately said: "You think about it carefully, and you think of telling the master." ”
Chen Xiaozi responded obediently.
Zhang Baiguan bought a few candies for Chen Xiaozi when he passed by the roadside stall, Chen Xiaozi was happy, after all, he was still a child!
When passing by Carp's house, Zhang Baiguan asked Xiangzi to take Chen Xiaozi back first.
Shoko answered.
Zhang Baiguan wandered in front of the carp house, feeling a little uneasy inexplicably, after all, the carp was originally going to the Lancang River with him, but the two of them went, and now only one of them has returned.
Things are people, not everything.
Zhang Baiguan couldn't help but feel a little sad, and after wandering for a while, a drop of raindrop fell from the originally dark sky, Zhang Baiguan felt a cold tip of his nose, and it didn't take long for the big raindrops to fall.
Zhang Baiguan ran to the carp's door to take shelter from the rain.
Looking at the raindrops falling from the sky, Zhang Baiguan was a little dazed, these days of rushing have always made Zhang Baiguan fall into a compiled net.
It's just that the authorities are fascinated, although Zhang Baiguan wants to break free, but he is invisibly bound by a force.
Zhang Baiguan looked up at the rain in the sky, and subconsciously leaned towards the door of the carp house.
But with a creaky sound, a crack in the door opened, Zhang Baiguan was shocked, and quickly turned around, fortunately there was no danger behind him, but in the next second, Zhang Baiguan was stunned, what does it mean that the door is open?
Zhang Baiguan didn't think about it, but took advantage of people's inattention to walk into the carp's house, this house Zhang Baiguan can't remember how many times he has been here, but for more than a year, every time he comes here, Zhang Baiguan's feelings are different.
The sky was a little gray, and Zhang Baiguan looked at it, everything was very peaceful, and there was nothing wrong with it.
But why is this door unlocked? Could it be that someone has been here?
Zhang Baiguan speculated, and began to walk towards the hall, the rain fell heavily, Zhang Baiguan was quickly soaked, and when he walked to the hall, Zhang Baiguan knew that behind the tablet was a tomb.
Zhang Baiguan went in before, and the terrifying memories were still in my heart, because Zhang Baiguan's name was buried in the coffin.
Zhang Baiguan glanced at the hall and came over, entered the inner room to check, time passed by by by Zhang Baiguan, only the footsteps of Zhang Baiguan sounded.
Zhang Baiguan held the footsteps and deliberately pressed it.
But Zhang Baiguan raised his feet and fell, as if there was an echo in the house, at first, Zhang Baiguan didn't pay much attention, but after a long time, Zhang Baiguan became suspicious.
But every time he turned his head, he didn't find anything, and Zhang Baiguan's heart tightened.
This house is really getting more and more evil, Zhang Baiguan muttered in his mouth, and slowly felt like a string in his heart, and the number of times he turned back became more.
Zhang Baiguan was almost sure that someone was following him, but this person couldn't catch it.
Zhang Baiguan's mind turned and he came up with a plan, so Zhang Baiguan no longer turned around and turned his head, but kept walking forward, going around several rooms, and Zhang Baiguan did not look back.
In fact, Zhang Baiguan pinched the time in his heart, and after the guy relaxed, Zhang Baiguan would make the most correct response.
Because it didn't take long for Zhang Baiguan to deliberately pretend to kick down something and then fall to the ground.
After Zhang Baiguan fell, he quickly turned around and looked around, it was empty, and there was nothing.
Zhang Baiguan's heart seemed to have experienced a wave, and now he saw nothing, and suddenly seemed to have collapsed, Zhang Baiguan sighed, and his eyes swept back and forth.
Even Zhang Baiguan wondered if he was too nervous and nervous.
Zhang Baiguan broke out in a cold sweat inexplicably, he was really nervous.
