I was so hungry that I felt delicious when I ate anything, and I didn't raise my head to look at him when I heard someone talking, I still lowered my head and ate violently, my mouth was full of food, and my speech was a little slurred: "I came here to look for people and things, how does this brother know that I am from the Eastern Holy Islands?"

The man smiled when he saw that I was eating, pulled a chair and sat opposite me, picked up the wine jug and poured me a glass and said: "My name is Liu Jiuri, I am one of the people in charge here, and the guy I brought you here just now is a newcomer I recruited locally, and when he returns to the Dongsheng Islands for the annual meeting on the 23rd of the lunar month, he will be registered on the roster of Wudetang, and at that time he will be a member of our Zhenwu Division." This person is not registered now, so he can only do some simple things, I asked him to always pay attention to the guests who come to eat and stay with me, as long as he sees someone who wears martial jade, he must tell me immediately, so I will come to meet him. I don't know which yamen the little brother is, what kind of object he is looking for, and who he is looking for? Can you have a dispatch order from your yamen to take a look at it?"

The chopsticks in his right hand didn't stop, he just put down the wine glass in his hand, fumbled in his backpack, took out the dispatch order and handed it to Liu Jiuri in front of him, and said with a full mouth: "It's so delicious, I've been wronged to death these days, whether it's on the ferry or on the high-speed rail, there is nothing delicious, big brother, don't be surprised." ”

"You eat yours, don't delay chatting, I'll take a look at this dispatch order first, you also eat a little slower, be careful not to choke. Liu Jiuri slowly unfolded the dispatch order, carefully studying the words on it.

Don't look at my concentration on eating, but I obviously felt his body tremble, and after he stuffed the dispatch order back into the envelope, he stood up and said to the nearest guy: "Bring me all the good wine and food that we can prepare in our store now, and then open a private room for us, and I will get drunk with this little brother today." Then he said to me: "Brother Xiao, stop, this is not the place to talk, let's change to a quiet place and talk slowly." ”

I didn't think much of it when I heard him say this, but I reluctantly swallowed the last piece of meat and followed him to a private room at the back of the hall. After entering, Liu Jiuri first said to the guy: "No one is allowed to approach this private room for half a step without my instructions, even if it is to serve wine and food, you must knock on the door first." ”

The man said yes and left, closed the door, Liu Jiuri came to me, pulled me to sit together, and said with a smile on his face: "You are the descendant of Deacon Xiao? Uncle Xiao has been doing well lately? I haven't seen him for almost half a year, has Uncle Xiao's vacation been over? I didn't expect Uncle Xiao's son to be the deacon in charge of the Penal Division now, and he is really a tiger father without a dog." How old is I, from now on, I will call you Brother Xiao. ”

As Uncle Da said, this person has a long five-short figure, big and round eyes, slightly fat, and the root of his tongue is a little hard when he speaks. At a young age, he became the head of Wudetang in Hecheng, which made the younger brother out of reach!"

Liu Jiuri laughed and waved his hand at me: "Come on, neither of us is an outsider, so don't flatter each other here." Tell me how Uncle Xiao is doing, don't you know, I was his subordinate many years ago, he was very good to these little brothers under his hands, he never put up a fight with us, and he would think about any good things for us, that is, in those years, I received a lot of favors from him. When I was transferred, he went undercover, and he's been on leave ever since. For so many years, we have been busy with ourselves, and I blame me, and I didn't say anything about visiting his old man when I was free. I'm going to see him when I'm out of this break, and I'll have to give me a good scold when he catches me. Hahaha......"

When Liu Jiuri talked about my father, his face was always full of envy, admiration, respect and longing, his miss was not just talking, it could be seen from his expression that he really missed his father.

He thought, I think more than he does, but thinking about it is useless. has been avoiding mentioning this matter, but he is such a persistent person that he has to ask why. was in a good mood, but he sank down again when he asked like this. It's just that I've passed the saddest time, and now it's more about missing.

Seeing my expression change from joy to sadness, Liu Jiuri was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously: "Could it be that there is something wrong with Uncle Xiao's body? Is it injured or has he got some disease?"

At this time, there was a knock on the door from outside, Liu Jiuri quickly stood up and opened the door, it turned out that the guy had prepared all the wine and food. After letting them put their things down, Liu Jiuri said to them: "Okay, you all go down, remember that no one is allowed to come near here without my orders, if there is something to do, I will tell you, go down and get busy." ”

The table full of food and wine was extraordinarily rich, but now they appeared in my eyes and were tasteless. Liu Jiuri sat back in his seat and continued to ask: "Brother Xiao, hurry up, you're going to kill me in a hurry, what's wrong with Uncle Xiao?"

I rubbed my eyebrows with my hand to stabilize my emotions as much as possible, and then slowly told him everything that had happened in this while. As for Dad's matter, I didn't say it too carefully, after all, I didn't feel good if I said it too carefully. After finishing speaking, Liu Jiuri poured a glass of wine and knelt down facing the direction of the Eastern Holy Islands, at this time he was already full of tears, holding the wine glass in his hand and choking and said: "Uncle Xiao, the younger generation is not filial, and he failed to appear by your side when you were in danger, you don't want to blame it, the younger generation is really helpless, this Zhenwu Division's errand can't leave people for a moment." I have to see your son today, and in the future he will be my brother in life and death in Liu Jiuri, please rest assured, as long as I Liu Jiuri lives in this world for one day, I can protect him, as long as Brother Xiao has something to ask me for help, even if it is on the sword mountain and sea of fire, I Liu will never give up. Uncle Xiao, you have a good rest over there, and the rest will be handed over to us, your blood and hatred, Liu will definitely remember it, if he encounters an enemy in the future, he will cut off his head to comfort your soul in the sky. As soon as he finished speaking, he sprinkled the wine in his hand on the ground, and then hid his face and wept bitterly.

Seeing Liu Jiuri crying so sadly, I couldn't hold back my tears, stood up and helped him up, and said to him: "Brother Liu, my father has died, don't be sad, I have accepted this fact, and you have nothing to accept." We living people still have to take care of the current life, don't cry, wait for your brothers to see that it's time to laugh at you. ”

Liu Jiuri's crying did not decrease by half a minute: "I see which of them dares to laugh, I don't break their teeth to count them as strong." Brother Xiao, don't you know, Uncle Xiao doesn't say to us like a son, at least he treats us as family. Now that I hear the news of his old man's death, my heart is broken. ”

The two of us cried in the private room for a long time, and finally all stopped crying, Liu Jiuri wiped his tears and filled the two wine glasses in front of him, handed one to me and said: "Okay, Brother Xiao, let's stop crying, Uncle Xiao and his old man are going over there to enjoy Qingfu, I also want to open, from now on you are my brother Liu Jiuri's life and death, if there is anything to say, just open your mouth to me, even if you want to pick the stars in the sky, I will get it for you." ”

In this way, we chatted while drinking, and gradually the atmosphere changed back to the cheerful one when we first met. When the wine has passed three rounds and the dishes have passed the five flavors, I have almost drunk it, I pressed his hand to continue pouring wine for me and said, "Okay, Brother Liu, I have to be ashamed to drink it again when the amount is reached." ”

"When you come to me, it's no different from going home, what's there to be ashamed of, we're all a family, don't be polite to me. As he spoke, he forcibly poured me a full glass. picked up the wine glass, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xiao, what I just said is by no means a big word, if there is really anything, you must tell me, don't look at me I can't leave this crane city at will, but I can also help you do it properly." At first, you said that you came here to look for people and things, who were you looking for, and what were you looking for? There was no mention in the dispatch order, and you guys were quite mysterious. ”

Seeing that he was so gracious, I had to drink this cup cleanly, this wine was really good, and I spoke with a big tongue: "Daddy gave me a dream, let me come here to find you, and then find a book of internal strength and mental strength of the Quanzhen Sect that he left." ”

Liu Jiuri patted his forehead and thought about it for a long time, but he didn't remember that they had this thing here: "I don't have any impression at all, his group of old people stationed here are no longer here, and it is indeed a little difficult to find this thing, but it doesn't matter, I have a person here who likes to clean up old things, he has led people out to run errands in the past few days, and it is estimated that he will be back tomorrow, and when he comes back, let's ask him, it is estimated that he can know." ”

"Okay, Brother Lao Liu has to worry about this matter, I don't know any rules as a newcomer, and I have to trouble you to tell me more about it these days. "I'm getting dizzy and dizzy, and it's getting harder and harder to speak, I took a lot of effort to say this sentence, although some of the preambles don't match the afterword, but it's not easy for the two of us to be able to explain these words in our current state. Liu Jiuri was no better than me, sitting on the stool and staggering, and began to talk one by one.

We really drank a lot of wine at this meal, and in my memory, it seems that we drank seven or eight pots of rice wine. All I remember is that I raised my glass and poured it in my mouth, and then I had no memory of it, and when I came to my senses, I was already in bed. Rubbing his aching head, trying to remember what happened yesterday, but unfortunately he really couldn't remember anything. It was also the first time in my life that I had drunk a broken drink.

At this time, a very nice woman's voice came from my ears: "Xiao Gongzi, you are awake!"
