Fu Guoxing came to the door of the house he rented, opened the door sideways, there was no light in the house, Fu Guoxing put down the things in his hand, smeared and found the switch on the wall, as soon as the light was on, Fu Guoxing frowned, only to see that the house was in chaos, the cups and plates on the table were messy, and the bed in the inner room, the clothes and quilts were piled up into a mountain, but there was a sound coming from inside.

Fu Guoxing gritted his teeth, walked to the side of the bed, and turned out a person from under a pile of torn clothes and socks, as well as the smelly sheets, the person was full of wine and beard, and he didn't know how many years he hadn't shaved.

Who is this man? This is five years ago, Fu Guoxing picked up an old man from the train station, five years ago in the winter, Fu Guoxing in the train station to find a target, according to his words that is called business, this old man came over, when the old man was wearing a tattered pants, suddenly fainted at Fu Guoxing's feet, Fu Guoxing touched the old man with his hand, only to know that the old man was having a high fever, Fu Guoxing called 120 emergency number, but after the 120 ambulance came, let Fu Guoxing also go with him, Fu Guoxing didn't think much about it, and when he arrived at the hospital, he understood that he was asked to pay。

Fu Guoxing had no choice but to pay the medical bills for the old man, Fu Guoxing waited for the old man to wake up, and then asked the old man for the medical expenses he paid in advance, but the old man pretended to be stupid, just ignored Fu Guoxing's stubble, Fu Guoxing had no choice but to give up, asked him what his name was, the old man only said that his surname was Hong, what was the name forgot, Fu Guoxing called him the old ghost Hong, how old was the specific age, the old ghost Hong also forgot, asked where the home was, the old man said that there was no home, no relatives and children, Fu Guoxing listened to pity, and when the old ghost Hong was cured, Fu Guoxing took him to his rented home, but listening to the old ghost Hong's accent, it seemed to be from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but what he said seemed to be from the north, plausible, Fu Guoxing couldn't hear where the words were, maybe the old ghost Hong had a lot of places to eat, and his accent was too mixed.

Fu Guoxing dragged the old ghost Hong up from the bed and patted his face with his hand, "Old ghost Hong, wake up...... There's meat to eat!"

Fu Guoxing shouted that there was meat to eat, and the old ghost Hong suddenly opened his eyes, "Where is it?"

Fu Guoxing pointed to the outhouse, "Outside, get up, let's have a drink!"

The old ghost Hong got off the bed, stumbling under his feet, Fu Guoxing just wanted to help him, but he saw that the old ghost Hong took a big step forward, don't look at the vanity under his feet, but he has a degree of emptiness and reality, and the proportions are just right, not only can not fall, but also swaying left and right is very fast.

"You old ghost, you're showing off your drunken immortals again!"

Fu Guoxing didn't care about him, and tidied up the clothes on the bed, "You can't wash your clothes at home, it stinks to death!" Fu Guoxing knew that the old ghost Hong never washed clothes, only Fu Guoxing washed for him, according to the old ghost Hong, his ancestors had rules and could not wear clean clothes, which made Fu Guoxing very incomprehensible, and in the end Fu Guoxing only thought that the old ghost Hong was lazy, so he said this.

After Fu Guoxing finished tidying up the bed, he raised his foot and kicked a few pairs of broken shoes on the ground under the bed, "It's done!"

Fu Guoxing clapped his hands, heard movement in the outhouse, turned his head, and saw that the old ghost Hong was already sitting at the table eating and drinking, "You leave me some ......" Fu Guoxing shouted loudly.

Fu Guoxing said in his mouth, walked quickly to the dining table in the outhouse, the old ghost Hong was holding a beer bottle in one hand, pinching a large piece of meat in the other, and was stuffing it into his mouth, "As soon as you go out, it's a day, and you want to starve my old man to death!" said and poured another big sip of beer.

"Didn't I confess to the Xiucai on the other side and let you eat at his side?" Fu Guoxing said that Xiucai is Gai Jiaping, as long as Fu Guoxing is not at home, the old ghost Hong eats at Gai Jiaping on the other side, but he doesn't eat him for nothing, Fu Guoxing has to give Gai Jiaping fifty yuan for each meal.

"Don't mention that sour Xiucai, he is too picky, he only eats noodles every day, or he mixes soy sauce with rice, and he doesn't see a little bit of meat. The old ghost was full of complaints.

"You're still not satisfied, it's more expensive for me to raise you than to raise a second wife!" Fu Guoxing counted the old ghost Hong.

"Eat quickly, come! Tie up the horse! Straighten your chest and abdomen, pay attention to your waist......" The old ghost Hong changed his hippie smile and became serious.

Fu Guoxing is firmly tied up in the horse step, although the old ghost Hong is sitting at the table, but there is no chair under the buttocks, and Fu Guoxing is also tied to the horse.

Since the old ghost Hong was taken to the house by Fu Guoxing, the old ghost Hong began to teach him some things subtly, every day at home is not allowed to sit on a chair, but to tie a horse step, before dawn, the old ghost Hong dragged Fu Guoxing up from the bed, let him run, and also tied ten kilograms of sandbags on his legs and arms, Fu Guoxing was not obedient at the beginning, but the old ghost Hong has kung fu, a fat meal, beating him where there is a lot of meat, and the obedience made by Fu Guoxing, Fu Guoxing is not for anything else, just to learn his kung fu, so that the old ghost Hong beat up, and it is also enjoyable。
