Chapter 291: The Crazy Man
"Let's eat~"
The crazy man didn't pay attention to the teasing of the old man and the old ladies, and still entertained himself with the steamed buns in his hand, immersed himself in his own world, and happily stuffed the steamed buns into his mouth.
Walking through the crowd, the crazy man's footsteps did not stop, and walked straight in front of Wu Luoyang.
Senior Brother Wu Fengxing took a step forward vigilantly and stretched out his hand to stop in front of him.
The other party didn't force to continue to approach Wu Luoyang, but just stared at her tightly, as if he was identifying people, and as if he was looking back for some memory.
"Girl, can you eat?"
He suddenly stretched out the steamed bun in his hand and asked her.
Wu Luoyang's eyebrows moved slightly, and his eyes fell on the white steamed bun with the black finger mark in his hand, and he gently refused: "Thank you, I'm not hungry." ”
"Hehehe......"
The man was unkempt but had a pair of dark eyes, a smile that cracked the corners of his mouth, and the steamed buns in his mouth fell off the scum, and he spoke slurredly.
"Dad has steamed buns, give them to you, and we won't be hungry."
As soon as the words fell, the crazy man took a bite of the steamed bun in his hand and crossed Wu Fengxing's blocked arm, and stuffed it directly into Wu Luoyang's hand, signaling her to eat it together.
Seeing this, Senior Brother Wu Fengxing frowned.
Wu Luoyang's eyes were shocked.
Holding the white steamed bun full of black handprints in his hand, he didn't know what to do for a while.
"Hey, Lao Cao—"
The old man behind him hurriedly broke the siege and shouted at the crazy man, "That's not your daughter, don't you want to scare people, hurry up and go away!" Go away! ”
The old man and the old lady spoke out one after another, constantly waving him to leave.
"Hehehe......"
The crazy man listened, and grinned stupidly at Wu Luoyang, and the steamed bun scum at the corner of his mouth kept falling with the laughter.
Probably already familiar with being driven away.
He didn't speak again, still smiling silly and eating the steamed buns in his hand, and continued to move forward.
I don't know where I'm going.
"Uncle, is this from your town?"
Du Su Rui asked more.
The old man was talkative, so he replied one more sentence: "Yes, we are in town." Well, there is a white-walled house in the woods on the top of the hill, which is his house. ”
As he spoke, he reached out and pointed to the taller mountain nearby.
When it comes to this crazy person, the old man and the old lady all regret it.
An old lady over there said that the man was not crazy, he was crazy when he went out to do business with friends more than ten years ago and was bankrupt, and he would be the richest man in their town.
In addition, the old lady pointed to the elementary school building in front of her and the cement bridge leading to the elementary school across the stream, and added: "When the elementary school was built, he donated half of the money, and he also paid for the construction of the bridge for the town." ”
From the discussion between the old man and the old lady, Wu Luoyang also listened to a rough idea.
After the man was bankrupt by a friend's company, he borrowed money to gamble and wanted to turn over, as the saying goes, nine out of ten gambles are lost, and he gambles more and more like those gamblers, and will eventually lose everything.
Later, the gambling debt collector came to ask for it, and the house was also smashed, he took his young daughter out to hide the debt, but he didn't expect to be chased by those people and beat him almost to death, and lost his daughter.
Later, when he returned to the town, the old mother of the family learned that he had lost his granddaughter, and in a hurry, she didn't come up in one breath and had a heart attack.
After the death of his old mother, he suffered an injured head and had no one to take care of him, and eventually became a homeless man in the town, living on everyone's kind alms and stuttering.
Looking at the crazy back, and then looking at the white steamed bun full of black handprints in his hand, Wu Luoyang's eyes sank, and his heart seemed to be pressed by something.
Senior brother Wu Fengxing took away the white steamed bun in her hand and threw it into the trash can on the side, and Du Surui also withdrew from the old man and the old lady group and returned to the two of them.
Watch the crazy figure walk away.
Du Surui sighed lightly, "Actually, it's good that he doesn't remember anything like this, he doesn't know how to be sad, and he lives happily in his own world all day long. ”
"Actually, it's not completely unremembered."
Senior brother Wu Fengxing looked at Wu Luoyang and said, "When he gave the steamed buns to Luoyang just now, he shouted his daughter......
For the rest of the words, Senior Brother Wu Fengxing did not continue.
Du Suri understood.
Thinking of something, he suddenly opened his mouth and came: "Luoyang, you shouldn't be his lost daughter, right?" ”
Wu Luoyang: ......
What's the matter!
This guy still wants to recognize him halfway!!
Senior brother Wu Fengxing hurriedly interrupted Du Surui's thoughts, "No, no, no, Luoyang grew up in Xuanyi Hall since she was a child, and the old lady said that his daughter was lost when she was young, not a baby in swaddling clothes, and the time is not right." ”
Saying this, Du Surui was embarrassed.
The three of them walked around the town, but they didn't find anything unusual, and the information that Du Su Rui had exchanged for cigarettes was of little use.
I found a random place to have lunch.
In the afternoon, senior brothers Wu Fengxing and Du Surui went to the shop in the town to buy some rice, flour, oil and pastries, Wu Luoyang paid for a few more clothes, and the three of them went to the crazy man's house.
He gave her half a steamed bun, so she should buy a few clothes as a gift in return.
A single-family dilapidated wooden mud house in the mountains, the roof tiles are incomplete, revealing irregular holes, and the walls are crawling with cracks and leaking air everywhere.
The wooden door of the house was half off, and it was the same whether it was closed or not.
The only thing that can prove the scenery of the owner of the house back then is probably the exquisitely carved red pine pillars, the delicate patterns and bird totems are still lifelike, which shows that the craftsmanship is not ordinary.
Du Su Rui shouted a few times in front of the station hall, but no one responded.
The three of them walked into the house one after the other.
The interior of the earthen house was even darker, with light shining through the narrow windows and dust dancing in the air. There was a musty smell in the room, the smell of damp tattered quilts, and the bed was shabby and worn, and a quilt was covered with yellowing marks of flying dust.
"It seems that he didn't come back."
The dust on the bedside table was covered with a thick layer, and Senior Brother Wu Fengxing looked at the cobwebs above the door and added, "Perhaps, I haven't been back for a few days." ”
Wu Luoyang nodded.
Putting things on the table at the head of the bed, the three of them left the room without making much stops.
Back to town.
They went around the town and didn't get anything.
The three of them returned to the B&B to rest.
Du Su Rui sat cross-legged on the clean ground, ready to enter the cultivation.
Last time, he assisted Wu Luoyang to subdue the Scorpio Star Shah, and directly broke through from the entry to the first stage of the Yellow Order, and after these few days of diligent cultivation, he was already close to the consummation of the first stage of the Yellow Order.
"Could it be that we're missing somewhere?"
Looking at the sun slanting in the west outside the window, Wu Luoyang frowned slightly, and there was always a feeling of unease in his heart.
"Wait, it's time to come, it's going to come sooner or later."
Senior Brother Wu Fengxing said.
The night passed, and everything was fine.
Early the next morning, the three of them came out of the B&B and came to the end of the town again, where the old man and the old lady gathered yesterday to chat.
"Yo, you're here again?"
It was still yesterday's talkative old man, who saw Wu Luoyang and Du Surui, and said hello first.
"Uncle, what's the new news today?"
Du Surui stepped forward and handed over a cigarette.
"Yes!"
The old man opened his mouth and reported a shocking news: "Lao Cao is gone." (End of chapter)
