Brother 355 Old Wu reminisces about the past
Before Shao Xi and the others left Zhiqiu Town, Shao Xi had already explained very clearly to the mayor of the town, if Ye Zhiqiu's body was found, she and Ruan Haoyang would be buried together, and at the same time, Shao Xi gave the town a large sum of money as a reward.
Since then, the original place of Zhiqiu Pavilion has become the permanent cemetery of Ruan Haoyang and Ye Zhiqiu, and the people in the town will come to clean and take care of it every month.
The people in the town were originally simple and kind, and the large amount of money Shao Xi took made the people here even more grateful, so the mayor promised Shao Xi on behalf of the people that everything he had explained would be done well, and there would never be any perfunctory.
The mayor of the town is a smart person, and he knows Shao Xi's identity, even if they don't give money, they don't dare to be sloppy in the slightest, not to mention that now Shao Xi is so generous, and the things he explains are naturally doing his best.
After everything was explained clearly, Shao Xi took Lao Wu and Wu Qiu'er to leave Zhiqiu Town and head in the direction of Lingyu Mountain.
Before leaving Zhiqiu Town, Shao Xi also glanced at the opposite shore of Zhiqiu Lake, where the people buried would let him be so concerned.
Sometimes, it may not take long for people to get along with each other to understand each other and become confidants, although quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes, and time will make people's relationships seem closer and closer, but there will always be one or two people in everyone's life who look at each other for a thousand years, I don't know if it is the fetters of the previous life?
When you meet such a person, it seems that you don't need to know too much to become each other's confidants, and the relationship between Shao Xi and Ruan Haoyang is probably because of this fetters in fate, right?
The two of them have almost the same experience, a common enemy, and the same responsibility, so that the two people are familiar at first sight, and they have nothing to talk about, although they are only a few days, and they have several faces, but they trust each other like old friends.
I wonder if Ruan Haoyang feels the same way? But Shao Xi's heart seems to have known Ruan Haoyang for many years, and the first acquaintance of the two is like a reunion after a long absence, respecting and understanding each other, and treating each other as their true friends.
This feeling may not be shared by everyone, but there is no denying that friendship between people is sometimes just as wonderful.
One side of the relationship, can be eternal!
Shao Xi was very quiet all the way, only Lao Wu and Wu Qiu'er didn't say a word, and these two people didn't know what to talk about? Lao Wu basically didn't understand what Wuqiuer said, and what else could Wuqiuer talk about besides eating?
A few people marched all the way to the north like this, but Shao Xi, who was originally in a hurry, was now unhurried, often thinking about his thoughts alone, Lao Wu knew that he had not yet come out of the matter of Zhiqiu Town, so he did not rush him.
Originally, going to Lingyu Mountain was also to make trouble for himself, so why was he in a hurry?
Not to mention Wuqiu'er, as long as you have food, you can walk as long as you like, anyway, he is quite comfortable riding on Daqing's body.
The three of them are like a tour of the mountains and rivers, because they often have to cross the river by boat on the way, so the journey is even slower, when they come to Huaichang County in the south of Yuanzhou, it is eight days later, fortunately, it is all the way to the north and go straight, if you go to Wulong Mountain again, I am afraid that you will have to walk a few more days.
After a few people entered Huaichang City, they directly found an inn to live in.
Shao Xi found that since the three of them arrived in Huaichang County, Lao Wu's expression was very unnatural, looking around from time to time, as if he was looking for something, and seemed to be hiding from something.
Originally, I didn't have the heart to care about him, but who knew that after arriving at the inn, Shao Xi Zhang Luo went downstairs to eat, but Lao Wu said that he wanted to eat in the room, which made Shao Xi feel very abnormal, this old guy has always liked to be lively, now why is he hiding in the room to eat like a big girl like taking the wrong medicine?
So he dragged Lao Wu downstairs, and the store and the guests were curious when they saw Wu Qiu'er's huge figure, and couldn't help but look at them a few more times, but Lao Wu was like an unsightly person, and he kept his head down and ate his own food, and he didn't even drink wine.
Shao Xi felt that this was really the sun coming out in the west, and this old drunkard actually hung the wine jug on his waist like this when he was eating, and he didn't even touch it.
Halfway through the meal, Lao Wu put down the chopsticks and said that he had finished eating, turned his head and went upstairs into his room and never came out.
Shao Xixin said, did this old thing do anything wrong? How can she be like a little daughter-in-law who is afraid to see her in-laws? So after eating, I went directly to Lao Wu's room.
As soon as he entered the room, he lay down on Lao Wu's bed, stretched out his hand to touch his bulging belly, and lazily asked Lao Wu: "I said, old guy!" Why do I think you're wrong? Since you entered Huaichang County, you are like a different person, did you do something bad here back then, and made the girl's belly bigger, afraid that people would lead the doll to recognize her father, so you hid around? ”
"Fart! Old man, am I such a virtuous person? If I had a queen, would I still have to be angry with you all day long after your ass? Besides, old man, I have stolen everything in my life, that is, I don't steal incense and jade, and I am not a flower thief. Stinky boy, don't talk nonsense all day long. ”
"Yo Yo Yo! Are you still in a hurry? If you hadn't done something unseemly, why would you be a thief as soon as you entered the city? Oh, yes! You were a thief in the first place. Go ahead! What is there to be done in this Huaichang City? Say it and let me be happy. ”
Seeing that Shao Xi was not in shape, Lao Wu sat on the stool, scratched his ears and hesitated for a long time, and finally said to Shao Xi: "Do you remember what I told you?" I entered Fengjiazhuang because there was a mistake in the rivers and lakes that year, I was chased all the way and was seriously injured and almost died, fortunately it was the old owner who saved my life, since then I have become a person of Fengjiazhuang, never stepped into the rivers and lakes again, and later worked with the owner of the village in the 'Jing Cheng Division' for the imperial court, until the owner resigned and returned to his hometown. ”
Shao Xi continued to touch his belly, and replied impatiently: "Remember, remember!" You have to tell me about these old chaff and rotten grains more than a dozen times a year over the years, and I can almost memorize them! What does this have to do with Huaichang City? Could it be that the enemy of yours back then was in Huaichang City? ”
Lao Wu nodded silently, and after a long time continued: "You guessed right, old man, the place where I folded my craft back then was in this Huaichang City, and the person who chased and killed me was a wealthy merchant in this Huaichang City, the boss's name was Qin Yuezong, and his son's name was Qin Miao. These two men have martial arts under their hands, and their skills are also good, it was this Qin Yuezong who injured me at the beginning, and the person who has been chasing and killing me is his son Qin Miao, if it weren't for the old man, I would have died in the hands of their father and son. ”
As soon as Shao Xi heard this, he jumped up from the bed with a "Teng" on his face, his face was full of excitement, he came to Lao Wu's side and sat down, grabbed Lao Wu's shoulder and asked, "It turns out that this is your sad place!" Tell me, what did you steal when you ran to someone's house in the first place? Why did you provoke people to chase you all over the Central Plains? Let's talk about it, what kind of immoral things did you do back then? ”
Lao Wu was told this by Shao Xi, and his eyes were about to turn to the sky, but he wilted again in an instant, and sat there sighing and stopped talking.
This can make Shao Xi angry!
"When you're old, how can you look like a? Say whatever you want, if you do something wrong, let's apologize and admit your mistakes, if their father and son bullied you back then, we will fight back! You are a member of my Feng family, if they dare to touch you again, I will tear down his house. You have not been afraid of the rivers and lakes for so many years, and now that I am by your side, are you still afraid of a bird? What does it look like to sigh? ”
Lao Wu was stunned by Shao Xi's words, this child is still facing himself in his heart, but Shao Xi is right, now that a master of the "Transformation Qi Realm" is following him, is he still afraid of a bird?
Just recalling the past, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, waved my hand to let Shao Xi sit down, picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water, and after drinking it, he said slowly: "I'm not afraid of their father and son, it's just that this Qin Yuezong can be regarded as an old man of mine, when we were young, the two of us studied with the master together, of course, what we learned was the craft of being a thief, and he is still my senior brother."
"When I was young, the two of us cooperated and did a few big cases, and then he washed his hands and started a business, and married a wife and had children. Back then, because I learned the wrong mental method, my master only passed on my body method, and passed on all other martial arts to him, firstly because he was a senior brother, and secondly, he did have the talent to cultivate martial arts. ”
Hearing this, Shao Xi interjected: "Damn! You are actually playing this kind of bloody drama of cannibalism between brothers and sisters, which can only be found in TV dramas, I can't imagine that you are playing for real. ”
"What's a TV series?"
"Don't ask! If you don't understand it, continue to tell your story. ”
Lao Wu sighed and continued: "That year, I made a small fortune, so I came to this Huaichang City to visit my senior brother. Originally, the two of us were very close to each other, and his wife and his son were also very polite to me, and the uncle and uncle called me with their mouths closed, and they were still happy at the reunion banquet at his house.
"However, when I came out that night, I happened to meet his father and son sneaking into the study, and you know that I am a thief, and I have the habit of secretly watching other people's hidden things, so I quietly followed.
"I didn't expect that there was a secret passage in the study of this father and son, and I was also curious so I secretly followed in, but I didn't want me to discover a shocking secret, that is, this secret caused me to kill myself."
Shao Xi heard Lao Wu say that he had discovered a shocking secret, and immediately became interested, grabbed Lao Wu's shoulder and asked, "Secret?" What secret? Tell me about it! ”
"They hid a man in that secret passage, and the secret was in that man."
