Besides, this little Gao Le lay on the unmanned flatbed truck and rushed all the way forward, the pedestrians screamed and dodged, and his own face turned purple with fright, and he screamed all the way.

Suddenly, a figure flashed out and grabbed the handrail of the cart, and the cart was instantly stopped steadily, and Gao Le also flew out with a scream of his own, and fell heavily to the ground.

Gao Le was dizzy, sat on the ground and sighed, his hands did not stop, rubbing his sore thighs vigorously for a while, rubbing his aching buttocks for a while, and his face was cut by something at some point, oozing specks of blood.

An old man in ragged clothes with a white beard parked the cart on the side of the road and walked up to him, crouched down in front of him, and asked:

"Hey, boy, are you alright?"

Gao Le grinned and rubbed his buttocks, looked up at the old man, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Huh? Aren't you the same old man you saw outside the city gate two days ago? ”

The old man swept him up and down with the two small points of light squeezed in his thick eyelids, and asked, "Is that you?" What are you doing here? ”

Gao Le said with a bitter face: "I don't know, it was this broken car that 'sent' me here." ”

The old man smiled: "Boy, you take the car for free, and you still scold people for this is a broken car?" By the way, don't you still have a brother? Where did it go? ”

Hearing what he said, Gao Le immediately came to his senses, stood up with one bone, and kept looking for it among the people on the street with a pair of big eyes, and said urgently: "My brother was beaten just now, a horseman, and a whip hit my brother's back, and then I was sent here by this broken car inexplicably, and I want to find my brother." ”

"Do you know where your brother is?" The old man asked.

"It was this cart that sent me all the way, then my brother should be in front, just down this street, I'll go find him." Gao Leyan stopped and ran the way he came.

The old man looked at his small figure and rushed forward, raised his hand to stroke his white beard, and muttered: "Everyone else calls me Hanako, just you call me uncle, 'old man', well, yes, very polite, I like this child." ”

He shouted at Gao Le's back: "Boy, the old man will help you find it." ”

With that, he hurried after him, following closely behind Gao Le.

Gao Leshi walked and ran, his two big eyes kept scanning among the pedestrians, turned his head to see the old man following him, and said, "What is the old man doing with me?" “

The old man said: "Well, Uncle Ben wants to help you, let's find it together." “

Gao Le ran two steps quickly, wanting to get rid of the old man, but the old man's feet seemed to be slow, but for some reason, no matter how he ran, the old man always followed him closely, and he couldn't shake it off.

Gao Le stopped and said with a bitter face: "Uncle, don't follow me, you help me find my brother, but I don't have any money for you, I'm poor." “

The old man raised his eyebrows and said, "Well, the streets of Tanzhou are full of your relatives, if you want to say that you are poor, Uncle Ben doesn't believe it." “

Gao Le's eyes widened: "Huh? Did you know that? Where are you hiding and peeping? I'll tell you, this trick is only good for me, and when you're old, don't bother with it. The money is all on my brother, I don't have anything in my pocket, you go away, if you don't send it, I still have to find my brother. ”

The old man had no intention of leaving, and said, "Since the money is on your brother, I will help you find your brother and ask your brother to give me four cents, how about it?" ”

"Siwen?" Gao Le rolled his eyelids, pulled the abacus beads in his mind, and said: "Deal, then you help me find it together, find it and give you four texts, if you can't find it, don't ask me." ”

Gao Le said as he spoke, but his big eyes never left the pedestrians on the road.

The old man smiled: "Okay, what's your brother's name?" ”

"Plateau."

"What about you?"

"Gao Le."

"Góller? Well, good name, high music, happy meaning. ”

Gao Le pursed his lips: "Uncle, I'm not happy at all now, if you want to earn those four articles, please open your eyes and help me find my brother." ”

"Open your eyes? But the old man never closed it?! The old man lifted his heavy eyelids vigorously, and his face was dazed.

Gao Le really couldn't be happy at this time, he had gone a long way, and he still couldn't find his brother Gao Yuan, with tears in his big eyes, and he whispered in his mouth:

"Brother, where are you? Why can't I find you, brother......"

He stopped a middle-aged woman and asked, "Sister, have you ever seen an eleven-year-old boy, thin and thin, with a scar on his forehead?" ”

The woman shook her head and said, "I haven't seen it." ”

He stopped a young man again: "Brother, have you ever seen an eleven-year-old boy, skinny, with a scar on his forehead?" ”

The man waved his hand.

He asked all the way, and no one could tell him where the plateau was. Golle pouted and tears flowed down his face, and he sat on the steps in front of a shop, crossed his legs and wept, shouting:

"Brother, where are you, brother...... Woohoo......"

The old man looked at him quietly, did not speak, turned his head and went to inquire about the passers-by again, and finally a man pointed fingers at him, and the old man looked in the direction of his finger, and thanked the man with a fist.

The old man walked back to Gao Le and said, "Don't cry, I asked." ”

"Huh? Got news? Gao Le Teng stood up and asked happily, "Where is my brother?" ”

Looking at the tears on his face, the old man sighed and said, "Some people said that they saw your brother in a carriage and was taken away by the carriage. ”

"Taken away? Where did you take it? Gao Le grabbed the old man's sleeve: "Uncle, you take me to my brother, go quickly." ”

The old man didn't move, patted his little hand lightly, and said, "Out of the city." ”

"Out of town?"

Gao Le was dumbfounded, "Out of town? Where did you go out of town? ”

The old man said: "Well, there are many places to go, Remnant Yang City, Fengji City, Liaocheng, the capital ......."

Before he finished speaking, Gao Le's tears fell again, and he cried: "It's over, I said at noon that my sister was lost, it's all my moldy mouth, bah, bah, it's good now, I really lost my brother, woo, I don't want that silver, it's okay, give my brother back, woo...... No, I'm going to find my brother. ”

After speaking, he raised his sleeves and wiped the tears on his face, lifted his legs and left.

The old man grabbed him and said, "Silver? Your brother still has money? But you don't have anything, what can you do? Even if you want to go to my brother, you have to pay for the journey. ”

As soon as he heard this, Gao Le raised his hand and touched his empty sleeve pocket, and muttered, "Yes, I have no money, what will I eat on the road?" ”

"yes, what do you eat?" The old man clasped his hands in front of his chest and looked at him leisurely.

Gao Le sniffed his nose and said, "If you want to find your brother, you have to eat yourself first, and I can't go to my brother without entanglement." ”

The old man said: "Yes, so, you can go with me, at least I can manage you three full and two down." ”

Gao Le impatiently raised his hand and pushed the old man away, "Uncle let me go, don't get in the way, I'm going to make money." ”

"Make money?"

The old man said: "I advise you, don't look for relatives anymore, come with me, and when you are full, I will help you find your brother together." ”

Gao Le shook his head: "No, I'm not going anywhere, what if my brother comes back to me?" Can't you find me, isn't it because our brothers missed it? I'm waiting for him here. ”

The old man said: "Then you have to eat first, let's go, follow me, take you to eat." ”

Gao Le looked up at him and asked, "Uncle, you're not a human trafficker, are you?" Want to take me away and sell me again? ”

The old man was dumbfounded, pointed to the tip of his nose, and said, "Me? Like human traffickers? ”

Gao Le: "Traffickers are not written on their faces, even if they are written on your face, I can't read, anyway, I won't go with you, you can go by yourself, don't hinder me from making money." ”

"Hey, you kid, after a while, you'll become a human trafficker after a while,"

The old man couldn't laugh or cry, "Okay, I want to see how you make money." ”

Gao Le's big eyes rolled, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed his shirt tightly, and cried loudly: "Please, give me back my money, grandpa, I just asked for such a little money, and you took it away to let me eat?" Yes! Grandpa, don't hit me, ouch, grandpa, woo...... I'm so hungry, I haven't eaten for two days, grandpa, please give me back the money......"

He was crying and making trouble here, and he couldn't fix the old man, he was at a loss, and he didn't know what this Gao Le wanted to do.

Passers-by stopped and gathered around, and someone asked, "Child, what's wrong with you?" Is he your grandfather? ”

Gao Le grabbed his shirt and didn't let go, with tears in his eyes, nodded at the passer-by aggrievedly, and complained: "He is my grandfather, he took away the twenty copper plates I begged for, I was hungry, I asked him for it, and he beat me, you see, my mouth is broken, and my face is also beaten by him......"

The old man was anxious: "Hey, you stinky boy, have you fallen for me?" Didn't you just break this face, why do you rely on me? ”

Gao Le cried: "Yes, I broke it, but if you don't push me to the ground, can my face be broken?" Give me back the money, woo...... Grandpa, I'm your own grandson...... Woohoo......"

He cried so much that passers-by pointed at the old man one after another, and some said, "Hey, how did you do this grandfather?" Naturally, you have to give him some of the money your grandson begged for, why don't you even leave him money for food? How did you become a grandfather? ”

"That's it, what about grandpa, he is so unkind to his grandson that he doesn't even give him food."

An old woman reprimanded: "Old man, you are too ruthless, don't you let your little grandson come out to beg for you, and you can take the money later?" Such a ruthless grandfather is really rare in the world. ”

"You're still beating the child, what do you see the child's little face does look like for you?"

"I ...... No...... He is ......" The old man only felt speechless at the moment, he spread his hands to show everyone: "Look, he grabbed me, I didn't touch him." ”

The old woman scolded: "You haven't touched him now, but if you hadn't beaten him, where would the injury on his face come from?" I really know how to quibble, and he still calls you grandpa! ”

The old man's face turned green.
