Chapter 168: People are small and ghosts are big

"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers!"

"According to public insiders, Beijing has just signed a 6.5 million yuan Jichang Railway loan contract with Japan's South Manchurian Railway Co., Ltd., and is ready to make a big deal with the south, come and see the latest news."

……

Under the big locust tree on the corner of the street, two old men were fighting on the chessboard.

"Arch pawn! Lao Zhangtou, if I'm not mistaken, Lao Duan's family has already borrowed three sums of money from Oriental devils today, and this is going to be a big battle. The younger old man stroked his beard with a smile and a hint of playfulness on his face: "Up and down, I don't know if he can succeed." ”

"Eat!" The old man of the elderly was not angry and arrogant, and snorted coldly after eating the pawn: "It's all something that can't be done, selling land and selling railways, in the end, I'll see what else I can leave to my children and grandchildren, borrow money and borrow money, it's not for the sake of fighting for territory, who has the people in their hearts." ”

"Watch me pull the cannon! As the old saying goes, it is better not to be a general for ten years than not to die for a day. People can pretend to be big and small in their hearts, maybe they will be able to do practical things after reunification, but they don't have the opportunity right now. The young man gave each other a meaningful look.

"Eat again! What kind of bullshit, in fact, is just pulling the banner of the tiger, whoever has the big fist is the truth, the real winner-take-allism, but if there is a little hesitation, he will not live today, and the merciful person will not be in charge. The elder knocked his pawn heavily on the opponent's pawn and said disdainfully.

The young man shook his head with a smile, and casually pulled a chess piece over: "You, you, your ideas are always extreme, and this was not necessarily the case when you were in power. ”

The old man didn't think about it, and directly mounted the cannon on the front line: "The times just create heroes, back then, it was nothing more than the enemy taking some luck, if I was given another chance, I would definitely be able to kill him again." ”

"It's a pity that the times have changed now, it's already the world of young people, and now what we old immortals say is like a fart, and no one will take it to heart." After thinking about it, the young man suddenly said: "I heard that the little guy surnamed Cheng from Peking University has been working on some planes recently, and the battle is getting bigger and bigger." ”

The elder stacked the two chess pieces in his hand and played with them up and down, sneering and said: "No one has no backing, sooner or later they will be eaten cleanly, although the little guy has some ideas, but unfortunately it is still too tender, others do not support it, no matter how high he flies now, he will fall worse in the back." ”

Hearing this, the smile on the young man's face instantly dissipated, and he said solemnly: "Its prosperity is also vigorous, and its death is also sudden." Although there are not many people like him at the moment, with him as an example, there will be more and more followers in the future, and if things are not done well, we must first find the reason from ourselves, rather than rushing to get rid of external factors. ”

The elder was very unconvinced: "I'll leave it alone, it seems that there are many people who are not pleasing to the eye, don't you think there are many more strange faces around him these days, don't you think there are more than before, he still thinks about how not to have an accident." ”

The young man's hand that was lifting the chess piece hung in the air, and he said cautiously: "What you said is true? ”

The elder sneered, "Can this still be fake? Oh, the one who bought the newspaper, the one who wore a robe and drank tea next to him, and the one who sold it with rock sugar gourd, all had things hidden on his body. ”

Following the guidance of his chess friends, the young man soon discovered the abnormality of these people, their eyes were erratic, and the clothes on their bodies were loose and ill-fitting, no matter how they looked, they didn't look like serious people.

"No, I'll have to go with him."

"Hey, hey, we've just played half of this chess, and I've eaten so many of your chess pieces, how can we count this game of chess?"

"Well, I'll go after I win, General!"

"Hey, you're really not authentic, playing with yin across the way, like walking in the field!"

"Ci is not in charge of the soldiers, this is what you just said, and then general!"

……

On the other side of the alley, a few people were lying on the roof, secretly looking at everything that was happening on the street.

"Brother, did you see the person who secretly got out of school with us the day before yesterday?" Nidan'er asked quietly.

"Why didn't I see it, I know him when he turned to ashes, and when I found him later, I just took a detour to throw him away, but I didn't expect to follow him in the end." Talking about this stranger, the dog couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"Where is it, let me see, is it the one who wears a straw hat and squats on the road?" As she spoke, Nidan wanted to look up and take a closer look.

"Why are you sticking your head so high? Hurry up and lie down, for fear that people won't be able to see us, or what's the matter? The dog pressed his sister's head stiffly, for fear that outsiders would be alert and find out.

Maybe it was too much force, Nidan'er's head was pressed directly on the tile, and she was so angry that she twisted her brother's waist fiercely: "This place is still my choice, I don't know if it will be discovered, and if I am bullied again, I have to sue our father." ”

Don't look at the little meat that is twisted, but the pain is painful, the dog almost sweated from this time, and grinned loudly: "Okay, my aunt was wrong with me just now, now it is important for Mr. to do it, don't delay the big thing, let go first." ”

While the brother and sister were still arguing, Wen Cong and Wen Hui were exchanging observations with each other.

"Medium-sized, thin, long-faced, old-fashioned, with middle-parted hair." Wen Hui looked at it while telling her brother behind her about the stranger's appearance: "By the way, there is a relatively large mole on the center of the right eyebrow. ”

"The body is thin and the face is long, and the specific appearance is not as good as the eyes and nose, so it is better to describe it carefully." After listening to his sister's narration, Wen Cong picked up the pencil and drew on the white paper, and the outline of the character jumped on the paper after a few strokes.

Wen Hui nodded: "Let me see, it seems to be a round face, rubbing the nose, the two eyebrows are short and thick, the hairline is back, the forehead is almost reflective, and there is no extra meat on the cheeks, by the way, there is a big scar between the cheekbone and the right ear, just like ......" Before the words were finished, Wen Hui pursed her lips and smiled.

The dog who was still playing in a low voice on the side was attracted and looked at Wen Hui curiously.

Wen Hui also noticed that everyone was looking at him, her cheeks instantly turned red, and she stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

Goudan'er couldn't help but be curious: "Sister Hui, what is it like, tell Brother Dog to listen?" ”

Ni glanced at her brother: "I was still disgusted just now, Sister Hui, don't tell her, whisper to me next to your ear." ”

"Hmm." Wen Hui nodded slightly, blushing and muttering in Nidan's ear for a while.

After listening to the introduction, Nidan'er couldn't help laughing, her mouth was round, and she immediately covered her mouth with her hands when she realized that the occasion was wrong, and her eyes were laughing into a crescent moon.

Originally, it was nothing, and it passed after holding back the curiosity for a while, but now my sister knows that she doesn't know, and the dog is uncomfortable.

hurriedly whispered: "What's the matter, tell me quickly, you can really kill people in a hurry." ”

According to Nidan's character, if she doesn't hang up her own brother's appetite for a long time, she won't say it anyway, but after seeing that Wen Cong was also curious, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Hui...... Hui Meizi said that the scar looked like it was gnawed by a donkey. ”

Hearing this, Rao is Wen Cong, who usually shows people with a blank face, couldn't help laughing silently at this time, and the hand holding the pencil was almost unstable.

The dog almost couldn't hold back, and he wanted to look out to make sure that the scar was gnawed by a donkey.

I don't know if I don't see it, I was startled when I saw it, the crescent-shaped scars, and tooth marks were clearly visible, at least in the eyes of an outsider, it did mean something.

"Wen Cong, you said that this person really won't be like what Sister Hui said, that's too scary."

Wen Cong shook his head: "In this critical position, it's not quite like it, but it's not for sure, maybe the other party really has such an experience, no one can say." ”

Just as the two were still discussing, Wen Hui suddenly noticed that the person was gone.

"Big brother, brother dog, did that person run away?"

"What, this person is going to run, where is he going, it can't be that he has already collected information that is unfavorable to Mr., so he must be stopped quickly." The dog quickly probed up, looking for the target with an anxious face.

"No, our strength is too small, we are not that person's opponent at all, and it may be dangerous to blindly stop it." Wen Cong immediately rejected this suggestion.

"This can't be done, that person can't do it, then what do you say we should do, we can't let people go in front of our eyes, but Mr. is coming back soon, if you really give this person a face, it's really too much." Dogan said anxiously.

Wen Cong thought about it again and again, and finally made up his mind: "Let's do it, let's divide into two ways, follow this person all the way, see what he wants to do, where he is going, and go to the station on the other side, ready to greet Mr., in case something happens, I can tell Mr. directly." ”

The rest of the people looked at each other, all agreeing with this opinion.

Nidan was the first to speak up: "My brother always bullies me, this time I won't be in a group with him, Brother Cong, I'll follow you." ”

Wen Cong didn't answer in a hurry, and turned his gaze to his own sister: "Huihui, what about you?" ”

Facing her brother's gaze, Wen Hui instinctively wanted to stay with her brother: "I'...... I ...... too."

Without waiting for the little girl to finish speaking, the dog pretended to wave her hand generously: "Okay, I know, you all dislike me, and I won't force you." In this way, you are a group of people, and I am a group, and I have also fallen crisp and neat. Wen Cong, you have to take good care of the two of them. ”

Wen Cong opened his mouth to explain: "Brother dog, in fact, I ......"

At this time, Wen Hui suddenly interjected and took the initiative to say: "Actually, I also want to be with Brother Dog, but I just didn't have time to finish my words just now." ”

The dog Dan seemed to be a different person, and said happily: "Say it earlier, in fact, I have long disliked my sister who is not angry, greedy and lazy, rest assured that there is a dog brother to take care of you, there will be absolutely no accidents, and I will buy you two Manchu dumplings to cushion your stomach first." ”

"Okay, dog, you wait for me, don't think about beating me next time." Nidan saw that her brother turned his face and didn't recognize anyone, and immediately became a little angry.

However, at this time, the dog was happy, obviously not taking his sister's words to heart, and led Wen Hui to go in the other direction, and said as he walked: "Sister Hui, be careful when you come down, no, I'll carry you down." ”

"Dogs!"

"What's that, Wen Cong, Sister Hui and I are responsible for tracking that person, you go to pick up Mr., let's meet in the old teahouse in a while, and hand over all the information collected in the past few days to Mr., let my father open his eyes, my son may not be inferior to my father!"

"Okay, then you pay attention to safety, Huihui, you must listen to Brother Dog in everything, and don't act alone."

"Okay, you guys should be safe, too."

So, in the mutual advice of several half-grown children, they began to act separately.

I don't know how long it took, Wen Cong and the others finally received Cheng Nuo at the train station.

Looking at the two little guys in front of him, Cheng Nuo was sincerely happy, and bowed down to be equal to them: "Why are you two coming to pick me up, so far away, are you tired, let's go, I'll buy you something delicious." ”

Nidan happily grabbed Cheng Nuo's arm: "Really, sir." ”

Cheng Nuo said kindly: "Of course it's true, when did I lie to you, tell me what do you want to eat?" ”

Nidan licked her lips, hesitated for a moment and suddenly said: "I don't want to eat anything else, I want to eat Manchurian dumplings now, whoever makes my brother eccentric, won't take me to eat." ”

Faintly realizing that something was wrong with the situation in his heart, Cheng Nuo straightened up and looked around a few times but didn't see Goudan and Wen Hui, and said suspiciously: "What about your brother Dog and Huihui, why didn't you see the two of them coming, wouldn't it be that you suddenly did something else behind my back?" ”

After realizing that she had said something wrong, Nidan hurriedly covered her mouth, but after she covered her mouth, she suddenly felt that this was a bit of a meaning of three hundred taels of silver here, so she quickly put her hand down again, crossed her hands behind her back, and didn't dare to say anything about her lips.

Seeing that the matter was about to be revealed, Wen Cong was anxious: "Sir, you misunderstood, Brother Dog was left there by the teacher to do duty and clean the school because his homework was not completed, so he came back late." ”

Cheng Nuo frowned and said, "What about Wen Hui, I remember that her grades were among the top in your class, and it has never happened that she was kept by the teacher on duty." ”

Wen Cong hurriedly explained: "That's the case, Brother Dog was punished for being on duty, Wen Hui is a student in the third group, and today it happened to be their group's turn to clean up, and they happened to meet together." ”

"Really? Wen Cong, you know me, I am not afraid of my students making mistakes, but the most taboo is for students to lie, you children's families, it is best to make ideas with parents in advance, don't make claims, in the current world, the number of bad people is far more than good people. ”

Seeing this, Wen Cong nodded again and again: "Don't worry, sir, we all understand these truths, and we will never do anything to be sorry for you." ”

"Well, I won't say anything superfluous, lest you get bored of listening to it." Cheng Nuo's face regained a smile, and then he put his hands on the backs of the two children and led them forward: "Let's go, it's the Manchurian dumpling shop, let you eat a full meal today." ”

Seeing that he was getting farther and farther away from the established meeting place, a trace of panic flashed on Wen Cong's face, and he hurriedly tried to find a way to remedy it: "I heard that the dumplings in the old teahouse are good, they are full of people, and the taste is very authentic, or let's go to their house."
