Abyss Express

That night, Jiang Xueming and Xiao Qi explained for a long time, and they wanted to explain clearly what happened on this trip with his sister.

Jiang Bailu could barely understand, her body language was very rich, her left hand and right hand made a slow motion.

The younger sister's expression was very confused.

"That is to say, I have a strange disease, and I have to go to a city more than 10,000 meters underground to find the potion, and then brother, you can talk to a big cat and take a train with an orangutan."

"It's not an orangutan." Jiang Xueming explained, "That man's name is Bu Liuxing."

"Oh oh oh! When you talk about this guy, it's like entering a zoo, full of animal adjectives." Jiang Bailu slapped his head: "That is to say, you went to an alien planet with this brother A Xing People's territory. I pointed at an alien widow and took a photo. This Brother A Xing even put the widow to sleep."

Xiao Qi laughed until the corners of her mouth split, "This sister-in-law is a bit interesting."

"It seems." Jiang Xueming covered his forehead: "That's what happened."

"What's next! Brother, you came back with the potion." Jiang Bailu pointed to Xiao Qi: "You came back with this sister and brought a lot of money."

Xiaoqi: "Yes."

Jiang Xueming: "That's what happened."

"Then you tell me that our situation is quite special now, and we will be in danger." Like an old pedant, Bai Lu sorted out everything: "Like the bad things in that underground station, they may come to attack us."

Xiao Qi cheered: "She finally understands."

Jiang Xueming clapped hands with Seventh Brother, "Yes, she understands."

"But." Bai Lu shrugged indifferently, with a blank expression, "This is too much nonsense, the first half is just like the fairy tales I read when I was a child."

She pointed at Jiang Xueming: "If you weren't counted as my brother, sooner or later I would wonder if I was in the crew of "The Truman Show"."

She pointed at Xiaoqi again: "If it wasn't for my illness being cured, and the two of you really spending so much money all at once, it would be hard for me to believe what you said."

Xiaoqi discussed with Xueming in a low voice: "Did you teach her to have so many eyes?"

Xue Ming looked relieved: "Thinking more is always a good thing."

"I figured it out, awesome! Brother!" Jiang Bailu thought it through, and stood up from the small bench all of a sudden, with a very energetic look: "You are too talented. I will go and talk to my classmates about this." , one of her and I must go to the psychiatric department."

After recovering from her illness, Bai Lu didn't look weak like before, but was full of vigor.

"There are bad guys coming to harm us, but I won't be afraid!" She put on the fighting posture of Ultraman dealing with little monsters, "Brother! Bravery can defeat evil! Now where are we going to cheat food and drink... oh No, punish rape and eliminate evil?!"

Xiao Qi discussed with Xue Ming in a low voice: "This line?"

Xueming: "Is it earthy enough?"

Xiaoqi: "Enough is enough. Where did she learn it?"

Xue Ming: "You can teach yourself without a teacher."

Xiaoqi: "The matter is also clear. Then what should we do next?"

Xue Ming: "Take her back with me. Originally, I wanted her to continue to go to school, but now that you've talked to me about the armadillo hunter, I'm not at ease."

Xiaoqi's eyes were flabbergasted, and he slurred his speech: "Actually, it's not that serious. If you really say that these guys are a little bit moral, if they come out to mess around, it won't hurt their family."

"Did you think in your heart just now?" Jiang Xueming moved closer to Xiao Qi, his eyes were extremely aggressive: "As long as Bai Lu is left here, it will be a private holiday trip for the two of us?"

"No." Xiaoqi firmly denied.

"And why do you look at things from the perspective of an armadillo hunter? Your attitude makes me very worried. If I were a hunter, I would have to deal with a newcomer like Jiang Xueming who just came to the station. He is a gangster with no one to rely on. ——There is also a younger sister who is helpless, this kind of person falls into my eyes."

Jiang Xueming's eyes became terrified, and he completely entered the role.

"It's like during working hours, when the water supply suddenly stops in a fifty-storey office building, and it just so happens that it's my turn to go to the public toilet to grab the first hole. I will never give up this kind of prey easily."

Xiao Qi was dumbfounded.

"What a wonderful metaphor. Just thinking about it carefully makes my brain tremble."

July 7th.

They boarded the plane home.

Brother Qi took care of the real-name registration and boarding procedures for the siblings.

To be honest, Xiaoqi didn't understand Mr. Xueming's behavior.

"If you are so worried about the safety of yourself and your sister, you should immediately take her back to the station to live together"

"No." Jiang Xueming interrupted: "This debt of flesh and blood must be settled."

Xiaoqi was puzzled: "Why?"

"According to my mother, she gave birth to Bailu when she was fifty-six years old." Jiang Xueming explained, "My father will be almost eighty years old this year, and my mother is seventy-four."

"Second Elder Lives Longevity!" Xiao Qi sighed, and felt that there was something wrong with it, "No, you are not much older than Bai Lu, don't tell me."

Jiang Xueming's expression was cold, and his tone was as usual: "Are you guessing, is there a possibility that Bai Lu was kidnapped?"

Xiao Qi nodded, she really thought so.

For a fifty-six-year-old mother who is forced to give birth in a place with a slightly poorer medical condition, that is a high-risk situation where either the child or the mother must die.

And she was still thinking about whether Jiang Xueming was also a child bought by this family.

After all, Mr. Xueming also said before that this family uses Bailu as a commodity in exchange for a bride price, which is very similar to buying a baby girl and raising it for money.

They didn't treat their son well either, and sent Xue Ming to the battery factory when he was seventeen.

Where is the battery factory?

Lead and mercury pollution plus radiation from electrical equipment, ordinary people have to retire after 30 years of working environment, giving birth to deformed children is considered a guarantee, and if the body is not sterilized, the ancestral grave is smoking.

Is that the attitude towards your own son? Is it the true feelings of the couple who are old enough to have children? They didn't even think about letting Xueming carry on the family line, did they?

It sounds like sending your son to a place introduced by an acquaintance to earn money to subsidize the family, which is considered free labor.

"I don't want to complicate simple things." Jiang Xueming said frankly: "Where Bai Lu and I were born, where we grew up, and who we were raised by, I can figure it out—it's not difficult."

"Oh, oh, I understand. As you said, cows are easier to deal with than this." Xiao Qi said with a smile: "This makes me feel very at ease."

"The current price of this bone-and-blood debt is 88,000 gift money, as well as the compulsory education tuition and living expenses of my sister and me." Xue Ming calculated: "No matter how you calculate it, including inflation, it will not exceed Three hundred thousand."

"It cost so much to raise you two? So cheap?" Xiao Qi was amazed.

Xue Ming nodded, like a treasure: "My memory is very good, from the time we were born to four years ago, they spent a total of more than 35,000 yuan on me and Bai Lu.

Both parents are illiterate and have not made any investment in education.

They have been cooking for six years and basically do not cook breakfast. The two meals at noon and evening are worse than the school cafeteria. "

Xiao Qi suddenly felt that the man in front of him was very cold-blooded: "You have calculated everything clearly?"

"Yes, when I get home, I'm going to settle the bill." Xue Ming's expression didn't change at all, as if he was discussing a business deal: "Do you think... I'm a little unreasonable? "

"No, no." Xiao Qi muttered: "I just think...you've torn your face, I'm afraid it will be very unpleasant."

"Again, I hate to complicate simple things." Jiang Xueming squinted out the window, and the plane had already started taxiing: "Do you think there is any unclear relationship between our two siblings and our parents? ?”

Xiao Qi was stunned suddenly.

She looked at Jiang Xueming—just stared blankly, as if all the mysteries in her heart were solved at this time.

Why is this guy so strange and cautious, like a lone wolf living in the steel jungle of the modern city.

These questions seem to have been answered.

"I want to make this matter clean and beautiful." Jiang Xueming squeezed the ledger and pen tightly in his hand: "I don't want to leave any tails behind. I don't know if they are my biological parents. For me, this matter is very important. Important, that's the officer's job, not mine.

——I don't want to see a photo of me and Bai Lu looking like prisoners on a certain telegraph pole. I don't know how to explain to Bai Lu whether we have committed some heinous crime.

——I don't want the Public Security Bureau to call me every now and then when I go back, and my work and life will be messed up because of these calls.

——I don't want them to become more cunning and ruthless, learn to surf the Internet in their old age, cry, make trouble and hang themselves in front of the mob of netizens and reporters. ] but [run away from home without authorization], I never want to use any pure malice to speculate on people's hearts.

——Brother Seven, you also said that the most taboo thing for passengers in the underground world is to be found by hunters. So my top priority now is to deal with this debt. It is like a bomb without a timer. When it explodes, hunters will find me by looking up my name on Baidu. "

Xiao Qi nodded cautiously: "You're right, it's really difficult."

Jiang Xueming said worriedly: "I'm sure that if my parents see my bank balance now, they will definitely charge an outrageous price. The small essays on the Internet can get hundreds of millions of hits. Those armadillo hunters can't help it on the first day." I have a high-intensity matchmaking on Weibo, read it on Toutiao the next morning, and read it on the WeChat official account at noon. When I go to the toilet before going to bed, I can still find my name on Zhihu.

By then none of us can escape. So, for this matter, I predicted several sets of words in my heart. How about you rehearse it with me first? "

Xiao Qi became interested: "Tell me in detail."

"Suppose, you are the factory girl I found from another remote village." Jiang Xueming described.

Xiaoqi immediately started to perform, took out her mobile phone, and her tone became abstract: "Show my sisters my man today! Ouch! Isn't this Jiang Xueming! ~ It's been a few days since I've seen you like this?"

Seventh Brother changed the subject and said to Jiang Xueming: "Then how about you go to the whole beautification and show off your beauty with your hair in front of the camera? I have already thought up the script for this short video, is it enough?"

"Stop it, stop it. The smell is too strong." Xueming continued, "Let's talk about it—you and I don't have much money, but you still have your parents to take care of your house, take the house to the bank for a loan, and do business for the two of us." Selling fake shoes, and ended up owing several million, and finally went home, and my sister was arrested when she was still packing and shipping in the warehouse, and she would be crying behind bars in jail."

Before the words finished, Jiang Bailu had already started singing in the next seat.

"Iron gate~iron window~iron chains!~"

"Holding on to the bars, I look out~"

Xue Ming gave his sister a thumbs up, and said to Xiao Qi: "After all this trouble, we got some cash, which is going to be used to honor our parents-in-law and give them a pension - they have collected the money, and we will definitely let us immediately Get out, this way the matter will be over, I don’t think there will be a phone call in the future, just treat me as my son. They have a secure pension, we can live in peace of mind, and everyone is happy.”

Xiao Qi pouted dissatisfiedly: "My life experience sounds too fucking miserable."

"Why don't we go to the art school in the province and city to find an actress. Let her play against me? You will play a debt collector next to me?" Jiang Xueming suggested.

The plane left the ground and rushed into the sky.

"That won't work. I'm going to act as a debt collector. If you don't come back, you'll have to pay for it a long time ago. Besides——"

Xiaoqi is very clever.

"—What if there is a kissing scene?"
