Chapter 31: A Turning Point for Sugar Xiaoyu Adds More
It's no wonder I'm excited, it's like an exam, you thought you were doing badly and didn't have much hope, but when the teacher handed out the exam papers, you unexpectedly heard a good score. (You can find this site)
I saw the house in this residential building, it was so inconspicuous in the middle of a residential building, but at this time it became the most beautiful scenery in my eyes, as long as the house is still there, I can always find clues, right?
Without saying a word, I walked quickly towards the residential building, Qin Huai didn't understand anything, so he could only follow quickly, and asked at the same time: "I said Chengyi, did you see the beautiful woman just now?" ”
At this time, I was not in the mood to talk nonsense with Qin Huai, and said, "I saw the place where Master and I used to be, I originally thought it was gone!" ”
Qin Huai's expression also became serious, and he said, "Then let's go quickly." ”
Standing in front of the familiar small building, I used to remember that Master knocked on this door with a special rhythm, but now that my memory is good, I have forgotten what this special rhythm should be, so I had to knock on the door, not only did no one come to open the door, but also caused some people in the surrounding buildings to scold and scold.
But I didn't care so much, and shouted directly at Xiaolou: "Open the door, a few years ago, my master once came here to buy something, it was silver, open the door." ””“
After shouting, I knocked on the door anxiously, and Qin Huai pulled me and said, "Otherwise, come during the day, I'm afraid that tomatoes and rotten eggs will be thrown upstairs near here." ”
I stopped knocking on the door a little decadently, if it wasn't for the fear of offending the owner here, I really wanted to break in, I said to Qin Huai: "Otherwise, you go back first, I'll wait here, they will always go out." ”
After saying that, I squatted at the door of this small building, as long as it was about Master, it was really difficult for me to calm down.
Qin Huai sighed, squatted next to me, took out two cigarettes from his pocket, threw one to me, and said, "Come on, count me unlucky, how can I know you?" I'll be with you. ”
I didn't postpone it, and in this still a little cool night, he Qinhuai squatted at the door of this small building with a cigarette in his mouth.
I thought we would wait until dawn, or I don't know when, after all, the father and daughter in this small building are so special, and it is normal for you to say that they do not go out for ten days and half a month.
But tonight maybe it's my luck, there will always be a miracle of another village, Qin Huai and I squatted downstairs for less than two minutes, and suddenly there was a 'squeak' sound of opening the door behind me, this small building is still an old wooden door, the sound is particularly obvious.
Qin Huai and I stood up almost at the same time, then turned around, and at the same time were stunned, why is it her? That beautiful woman with a weird smile just now?
Qin Huai and I were in a daze, but her attention was not on us at all, her eyes felt very ercareless, and she said absentmindedly: "Come in, those who have come to buy things naturally know where Master Liu is." ”
After saying that, she left, looking very hurried, and what was particularly strange was that she nodded occasionally while walking, and laughed twice from time to time.
After the woman turned to leave, Qin Huai looked at me a little speechless and said, "It's a pity, any beauty is related to you, they are not normal women, including Ruyue, I X, who are full of insects, insects, snakes and snakes, and I don't know how she gets through the security check on the plane." ”
Obviously, Qin Huai finally found out that something was wrong with this woman, and I said helplessly: "Is this also related to me?" In addition, I am also curious about how Ruyue passed the security check, so I will ask her next time. ”
After saying that, I walked into the house, which was still as dim as it had been many years ago, but the difference was that they finally understood the progress of the times, and were willing to use electric lamps, but the wattage of this electric lamp was very low, and it was not as good as an oil lamp.
The dim light, the dark and dreary room, plus some cold air in the room, Qin Huai, this kid came in, he muttered quietly I couldn't stand it, I didn't know and thought that a ghost movie was being filmed here, and I went upstairs directly, the memory at that time was still very clear, I knew that the old man was in the room at the end of the corridor, I was very happy that he was still alive in the world, but in fact he was only 59 years old, and it was normal to live in the world.
Maybe he didn't borrow his life anymore, maybe not?
I went up to the second floor and walked through the hallway, going straight to the innermost room, but as I passed by the next room, I could clearly hear a vague moan, as if it was painful.
Before I could delve into anything, the absent-minded beauty suddenly burst out from behind, holding two large quilts, and rushed into the room at once, and I didn't see anything clearly.
Qin Huai was so frightened that his hair stood upside down, and he shouted: "People walk here without sound? ”
I remembered that this old man who sold talismans also had a daughter, could it be that the moaning just now was made by his daughter? But after all, I undoubtedly spied on other people's **, and I still walked to the innermost room and pushed open the hidden door.
As soon as I entered, I found that the furnishings of the room had not changed after so many years, the shelves were so large that they were piled with all kinds of miscellaneous items, and the large and somewhat disproportionate table, the only difference was that the old man sitting behind the table.
He used to be just thin, just old, but now he felt that his whole body had shrunk and become rickets, and he sat in a small lump of large wooden chairs that did not match his figure.
"You come and sit and ask your friend to wait below, I don't smell the insiders in him." The old man spoke, but his voice did not change at all, and it was hoarse and unpleasant as before, like pulling a bellows.
As soon as he spoke, Qin Huai was startled, and then he reacted, the old man was rushing out, and he muttered in a low voice: "It's not a star, and it's not a circle." But he knew I cared about it, and although he muttered, he turned around and went down.
I walked over and sat down in front of the old man, and just wanted to say something, but the old man spoke by himself: "I remember you, his apprentice who came with Lao Jiang a few years ago, this life is simple, and this person remembers it very clearly." ”
He still remembered me, which was another bonus, and he didn't have to explain the ins and outs, so I said, "I'm here for"
But no, as soon as I opened my mouth, the old man coughed weakly twice, interrupted me, and then asked me with a wheez, "You know the rules, right?" Your first time here, I'm going to see what you have worth my exchange. ”
This is quite embarrassing for me, except for money, I asked myself if there is nothing to exchange with him, and I am not here to do business, so I can only say directly: "I am not here to do business this time, I am here to ask you for a message." ”
I was afraid that he would interrupt me as soon as he heard my intentions, so I hurriedly continued: "Since you know my master, and you are also the descendants of the mountain character lineage, I am here to ask you about the news of Kunlun, or to ask for some clues about my master, my master."
"Huh?" His expression didn't change, just a faint hum.
"My master disappeared five years ago, along with my uncles, Master Huijue, and some others, and I thought," I don't need to say anything about the rest of the story, because when it comes to this, my intention is already very clear.
The old man was silent, his expression did not change, the only detail that changed was that he kept tapping his fingers on the table, as if he were beating on my heart, so that my heart also rose to my throat.
After about a minute like this, the old man's expression became a little trance, and I suddenly felt that there was a play, but what he said made my heart fall to the bottom, and he said, "Your master, they are missing, what is the use of you asking me?" What Kunlun is not Kunlun's? Now that the library has materials, don't you know how to look it up? ”
My expression suddenly became decadent, did he really not know?
As a result, the old man continued to speak: "What about you, you can come to me if you want to do business, after all, your master is my old customer, and there are not many talismans in the world now." If you want to inquire about anything else, go back, I have been in this dark house for so many years, what can I know? ”
I sat down in my chair, a little reluctant to get up, but the old man no longer paid attention to me, but grabbed a book on the table and looked at it, I noticed that there was a window behind him, just to see downstairs, I think if he hadn't heard the shout and recognized me through the window, I guess I wouldn't even be qualified to go upstairs.
With a silent sigh in my heart, I stood up and said goodbye, and the old man snorted to indicate that he understood.
Then, I had no reason to stay, I turned around and prepared to go downstairs, maybe I was more depressed, and I didn't pay attention when I went out, and I bumped into a person all of a sudden, and this knockdown really gave me a turnaround.
