Chapter 31: Parting

After the master and apprentice had eaten, Wu Hou took Duanmu Shenjiu around the station again, preparing to find a small hotel for Duanmu Shenjiu, let him stay first, and then call him when he left.

The big hotel can't get in, because Duanmu Shenjiu doesn't have an ID card, so he can only live in a small hotel first, which is not formal, so he can stay without an ID card.

The two turned left and right in the alley, and found a hotel with a small sign hanging on the main road, with a narrow entrance and a narrow corridor, empty of people.

Wu Hou thought that the boss might have gone out and wanted to wait here, but Duanmu Shenjiu stood by the counter and shouted, "Shopkeeper!"

Wu Hou's head was big for a while, and he said, "Master, you have to call the boss." ”

"What's the difference?" Duanmu Shenjiu asked.

Wu Hou explained: "It's the same as when you were in the restaurant just now, your name is Xiao Er, but modern people call it a waiter." The shopkeeper is not called the shopkeeper now, but the boss. ”

"Then the one who took the car today, and the one who drove the car is no longer called the driver?"

"yes, that's the driver. Wu Hou said: "The teacher is not called a gentleman, but a teacher; the one who heals the sick is not called Langzhong, but a doctor; the consumer is not called a guest officer, but a customer; the groom is not called a husband, but a husband; and the bride is not called a lady, but a wife.....

While Wu Hou was talking, a woman came out of it, about fifty years old, she saw Wu Hou and the two, and asked, "Are you resting?"

Wu Hou nodded and replied, "Well, he lives, I don't live." ”

The woman nodded and said, "The single room." ”

"Good. ”

Wu Hou paid the money, took the room card handed over by the woman, and took Duanmu Shenjiu to the room.

The room was small, with only one bed, not even a window, and a small table at the head of the bed with a small lamp on it. There was no bathroom in the room, so Wu Hou looked in the corridor and told Duanmu Shenjiu, "There is a toilet at the end of the corridor, Master can go there if it is convenient for you." ”

Duanmu Shenjiu nodded, put the bag on the ground, and sat cross-legged on the bed.

"When are we going to leave here?"

Wu Hou replied: "I will come to call you when I leave." Oh yes, I forgot about it, Master, you are here to wait for me for a while. After that, Wu Hou went out.

Duanmu Shenjiu was strange, but he didn't ask, and waited quietly in the room. After about ten minutes, Wu Hou led the boss over, and the boss was still holding a camera in his hand.

"Master, come, I'll take a picture of you. Wu Hou pulled Duanmu Shenjiu out of bed.

Duanmu Shenjiu, who was standing on the side of the wall, said strangely, "What is this doing?"

The boss skillfully picked up the camera and pressed the shutter towards Duanmu Shenjiu, and the flash lit up, which startled Duanmu Shenjiu, and hurriedly said, "What is it?"

The boss didn't speak, turned and walked away. Wu Hou explained: "It's also more convenient to take a photo of you and make a fake ID card." ”

"What's the matter with that just a flash of light?"

Wu Hou smiled: "That's a flash, for photography." ”

"Oh. Duanmu Shenjiu shook his head and said, "It's weird. ”

"Hey, hey. Wu Hou picked up his luggage and said, "I'll go back, Master, you rest early." ”

Duanmu Shenjiu nodded, letting Wu Hou leave with peace of mind.

After Wu Hou left, he sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and recuperated, and did not lie down.

Someone walked by in the corridor outside, making a noise, and the next room was also occupied by guests, perhaps accidentally touching the wall, and there was a "knock" sound.

The surroundings are noisy and not quiet at all. Especially in the next room, after not many people lived, the wooden bed made a regular sound, and sometimes there was a woman's cry. Duanmu Shenjiu, who has lived for thousands of years, naturally knows that it is the movement of men and women doing clouds and rain. He was dissatisfied in his heart, and felt that these men and women were too unshy about it.

In this way, in the second half of the night, the surroundings quieted down, and although Duanmu Shenjiu had kept his eyes closed, he did not sleep. Somehow, now that he has walked out of the mountains and into the world, his heart seems to be a little unsettled. He thought of the woman he loved, when his own clan suffered, and even her clan was affected, and at the most critical moment, he didn't know if she fled with her clan.

Thinking of the last battle before his long sleep, he single-handedly took on the heroes of the world, and in the face of the joint siege of many martial arts heroes, he was as strong as he was also defeated. If it weren't for the exercises he cultivated, which could make people hold their breath like a dead man, I am afraid that in the end of that battle, he would have to really pass away.

I don't know if the rest of the clansmen escaped after her "death", and I don't know what happened to her and her people. After thousands of years of time, Duanmu Shenjiu, who seemed to have had a dream, has never missed her so urgently in the past few years since he woke up.

Duanmu Shenjiu, who had been unable to calm down in his mind, was interrupted by a knock on the door, he slowly opened his eyes, got out of bed, walked to the door and opened it.

There was a young woman standing at the door, wearing a low-cut dress on her upper body, revealing her slender neck and breasts that were about to burst out, her face was very fat, but she could still see some greenness, and she was estimated to be not very old. The lower body is a miniskirt, and the bare legs are stepping on the sky.

When the woman saw Duanmu Shenjiu, she was slightly stunned, but she didn't expect that it was such a beautiful man with long hair who lived there.

She said charmingly: "Handsome guy, do you want to play?"

Duanmu Shenjiu looked at the woman, but he was not affected by the dress of the woman in front of him, he said strangely: "What are you playing?"

The woman thought to herself, this can't be a chick, so wooden.

The woman didn't say much, walked directly into the house, closed the door with her backhand, and began to undress.

Duanmu Shenjiu was taken aback when he saw this scene, and hurriedly said, "Girl, don't!"

The woman laughed and said, "You're funny, girl, haha." ”

Duanmu Shenjiu saw the woman undressing while talking, and he was anxious, so he stopped it, but the woman was unmoved. He had no choice but to stretch out his hands, grab the woman and throw her out of the room, then throw her clothes and bag out, and slam the door shut.

Duanmu Shenjiu, who closed the door, frowned and scolded: "No shame!"

The woman outside the house had not yet reacted from the shock, and sat on the ground in a daze, with only one underwear left on her upper body, and the clothes she took off were also thrown on the ground by Duanmu Shenjiu. After she sobered up, she hurriedly put on her clothes and said hatefully at the door: "If you don't prostitute, you won't prostitute, what are you doing with your mother?

When Duanmu Shenjiu in the room heard this, he wondered in his heart and muttered, "What does my uncle mean? It's really weird!"

The woman outside the house cursed a few words, got up and left, the night was getting darker, the sound became less and less, and slowly the surroundings were quiet. Duanmu Shenjiu sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and gradually fell into a deep sleep.

On the morning of the next day, Wu Hou got up early, Guo Sunflower had already packed all the things he needed for Wu Hou, Wu Hou only needed to carry his bag and go directly to the station to take the train.

Wu Hou went out with his bag, Guo Sunflower was not at ease, and told him to pay attention to safety, save some money, remember to call himself if it is not enough, roommates in a dormitory should get along with each other, don't make conflicts with others, take care of Mai Wenxiang, who is a little girl, don't let people be bullied over there.

Wu Hou's phone rang, and it was Mai Wenxiang calling. He picked up the phone and said, "Hey." ”

Mai Wenxiang's voice came from the other side of the phone, "Wu Hou, are you going downstairs?" My dad drove us to the station, come over quickly." ”

Wu Hou said okay, put down the phone, looked at his mother and said, "Mom, I'm leaving." ”

Guo Sunflower was a little sad, although Wu Hou would leave him every year on vacation, but this time he traveled thousands of miles to study far away, and he was really reluctant in his heart.

"Go ahead, slow down on the road. Guo Sunflower had a bitter face and looked at Wu Hou reluctantly.

"It's okay, you take good care of yourself at home. Wu Hou was like an adult, and instructed his mother: "If you have time, you often go to the mountains to see your grandparents, they are old and their health is not as good as before, if you can take them over to live, take them over." ”

Guo Sunflower nodded, wiped her eyes with her hand, waved her hand and said, "Go, don't let Xiangxiang wait in a hurry." ”

Wu Hou picked up the bag and went down the stairs, Guo Sunflower stood at the door and looked at him, a child who seemed to have grown up, today he was going to be alone, carrying his bags and going to a distant place. Guo Sunhua thought to herself, time is really fast, pick up her son from the mountains and let him go to school, this time, ten years have passed, his son is already going to college, maybe in a few years, he will get married, and he will be a grandmother.

Thinking of this, Guo Sunflower thought of her man again, the name she always said when she was drunk, "Wu Daqi." She scolded this conscienceless bastard in her heart, abandoned herself, went away, never heard from her, and never came back, he didn't know that he had a son, and his sons were all in college.

When Wu Hou descended the stairs, he turned his head and glanced up at his mother. Guo Sunflower was still standing on the threshold, with a flower-colored apron tied around her waist, her hair was a little messy, casually tied up on her head, and her eyes were full of affection when she was staring at her, but Wu Hou still caught the subtle crow's feet at the corners of her eyes.

Guo Sunflower urged: "Don't leave yet, go quickly." ”

Wu Hou said: "You drink less at home, I'm not at home, and no one will take care of you if you drink too much." ”

"Mom knows, I'm not a child. Guo Sunflower smiled, turned around and closed the door, then leaned his back against the door, holding his forehead and crying.

Women are weak in the end, over the years, alone with children, and still have to make money to support the family, Guo Sunhua's strong appearance hides a fragile heart, but she never shows it in front of her children. She knows that she is a mountain of Wuhou, and if the mountain is not tall enough, what can children learn in their growth.

The mood of going to go is indeed not a good taste, this long trip, a farewell will be half a year. For Wu Hou, who is used to being here, he is more or less disappointed in his heart.

He carried his bag and walked absentmindedly to the downstairs of Mai Wenxiang's house, where Mai Weili and his wife and Mai Wenxiang were already waiting for him.

Mai Wenxiang saw that Wu Hou was a little sullen, so she asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"No, no. Wu Hou covered up and said, "Let you wait for a long time, let's go." ”

Packed into the car, Wu Hou and Mai Wenxiang sat in the back seat, and Mai Weili drove the car towards the station. On the way, Wu Hou was a little silent, and he didn't speak the whole time, he had always been Mai Wenxiang's mother, telling Mai Wenxiang. Mai Weili was smoking, the car was not driving fast, and he probably wanted to stay with his girl more.

After arriving at the station, Wu Hou got off the train, first walked to the side, and called Duanmu Shenjiu, telling him that he was at the gate of the station and asked him to come and find him. Duanmu Shenjiu promised on the other end of the phone, saying that he would be there in a while.

Mai Wenxiang's mother and daughter hugged each other, looking reluctant, and Mai Weili looked at the two of them on the side, also with complicated eyes.

Mai Weili suddenly raised his eyebrows at Wu Hou and motioned for him to come with him. Wu Hou followed Mai Weili to the side, Mai Weili handed over a cigarette and said, "Boy, go over there and take care of Xiangxiang, if he is bullied, I can't spare you." ”

Wu Hou replied with a smile: "Okay, the protection fee is two thousand a month, if anyone bullies her, my teeth will be knocked out for him." ”

"Ah, you stinky boy. Mak Weili glared and said, "You are quite good at business." ”

"Hehe, I've learned from you in the past few years. ”

"You can pull it down, and ask me for money. ”

"Just kidding, don't take it seriously. ”

"That's pretty much it. Mai Weili glanced at Wu Hou, took a puff of cigarette, was silent for a while, and then said: "I have grown up, I have gone to college, alas, it is really fast." has lived for most of her life, just such a girl, you have to show me, there are too many bad men in the outside world, you must protect her safety. ”

Wu Hou saw that Mai Weili was very uneasy, and said seriously: "Don't worry, I will protect her well." ”

Mai Weili snorted, then looked directly into Wu Hou's eyes, and said solemnly: "You can't beat her idea." !”

Wu Hou sighed helplessly, "You think too much." ”

"Hmph, you kid. Mai Weili turned around, "When you get there, Jiang Lei will look for you, and you can do the rest yourself." This is the end of our cooperation, you and I have made a lot of money in the past few years, which is almost enough, and I can't be too greedy. ”

"Oh. Wu Hou sighed, and when he saw Duanmu Shenjiu walking out of the alley, he shouted: "This way." ”

After Duanmu Shenjiu saw Wu Hou, he walked over to this side.

Mai Weili and Wu Hou returned to the car, and the family of three looked at Duanmu Shenjiu, wondering who the long-haired man was.

Mai Wenxiang asked, "Wu Hou, who is this?"

Wu Hou had thought of his rhetoric in advance, so he said, "My cousin, he works in Hangzhou, and he just happened to go back today." ”

Mak Weili frowned and said nothing, strange in his heart. Wu Hou, this kid, he has already checked, how can a single-parent family who doesn't even have a father have a cousin, but he didn't ask.

"Alright, it's almost time, let's go. Wu Hou proposed.

Mak Weili and his wife were sad, but they also had to let go of their daughter.

"Go ahead, you have to transfer to the train when you get to the provincial capital, leave early, don't delay. Mai Wenxiang's mother was not at ease, and said: "Wu Hou, take care of Xiangxiang over there, you are more sensible than her, she has been used to me and your uncle since she was a child, and she is not sensible, you let her do more." ”

"Who is not sensible, Mom, you know how to smear me. ”

Mr. and Mrs. Mak laughed, and their mood was a little lighter.

Wu Hou said: "Don't worry, Auntie, it's okay." ”

"Well, let's go get in the car. ”

Wu Hou, Mai Wenxiang and Duanmu Shenjiu turned around and walked towards the station, Mai Weili and his wife looked at their daughter at the door, jumping and jumping as they walked, turned around after entering the door, smiled and waved to themselves, and then got into the flow of people in the car.

Mai Weili said bitterly: "My daughter seems to be very happy, isn't she sad when she leaves her father?"

"Alas, this girl, as long as she is with Wu Hou, she will forget about the two of us. ”

"What do you mean?" Mak Weili was puzzled.

His wife rolled her eyes, turned around and sat in the car, without saying a word.

The three people who were queuing up to buy tickets stood at the back of the line. Mai Wenxiang is at the front, Wu Hou is in the middle, and Duanmu Shenjiu is at the end.

Mai Wenxiang turned around to chat with Wu Hou, saw Duanmu Shenjiu, and grinned and expressed friendship. Duanmu Shenjiu was unmoved, and looked away expressionlessly. Mai Wenxiang was a little embarrassed, and whispered to Wu Hou: "Your cousin is so cold." ”

Wu Hou replied with a smile: "He's like this, in fact, he is a very good person." ”

"I don't know if it's good, but it's really beautiful. Mai Wenxiang smiled and said, "It's much better looking than you." ”

Wu Hou was helpless, held Mai Wenxiang's shoulder, turned her around, and ignored her. He turned around and asked Duanmu Shenjiu, "Master, how was your rest last night?"

Duanmu Shenjiu ignores others, but he will not ignore his own apprentices. He replied to Wu Hou: "The rest is okay, but in the middle of the night, a strange woman knocked on the door and asked me how to play, and then I went into the house by myself and took off my clothes." ”

Wu Hou was dumbfounded, and said in surprise: "You entered the house?

Duanmu Shenjiu was displeased, frowned, and said, "Is it a teacher?"

Wu Hou thought about it, shook his head, and muttered, "You don't have any money to play Ah ......"

"What did you say?"

"No, it's nothing, Master, are you thirsty or not, I'll buy you a bottle of water....."
