: Memories of the Jaw

The old man didn’t answer his question right away. He stood up slowly, hunched over and coughed a few times, then walked to the wall and took down the landscape painting that had been torn into shreds by Wuxing Zhiqi.

“It’s really old, tearing up a painting and almost dying of coughing.”

He looked at the rag in his hand with eyes full of treasure, and said to Yi Tianxing: “Don’t ask me if I am in the third grade.”God, because I don’t even know if I am. ”

Yi Tianxing was puzzled.

“Because I have never met anyone with the same ability as me in this world.” The old grandfather put the rags into the drawer and continued: “And you are the first.”

It was only then that Yi Tianxing understood why the old man in front of him could stand upright in the stormy rivers and lakes for many years, and he was able to lay down a large area of ​​land in the provincial capital as a foreigner. Thinking that he has such an ability to cast dark energy through the air, it is really too easy to get rid of some thorny opponents on the road.

The old grandfather’s voice became a little desolate.

“The last three days are just legends. I spent forty years inquiring about them. I firmly believe that such legends are true, but I can’t find evidence. I invite you here today to see if you are with me. It’s a kind of person. Don’t blame the old man for being too wordy, after all, I know that there is a person who is similar to me living in a small county town, and I am excited, I hope you can understand my Luo Mo after seeing you.”

Yi Tianxing is naturally aware of the loneliness of people with this ability when they survive in the world. He looked at the old man with white hair and beard in front of him with some sympathy, and suddenly thought of a rumor, he blurted out and asked: “Old man, in the legend are you After arriving in the provincial capital, you had an adventure, and you became famous in the world. The so-called adventure is the ability you have now.”

The ancient grandfather smiled and nodded, and the wrinkles on his face stretched a little.

“What kind of adventure, since it is an adventure, then of course this ability in you is acquired, it should be taught by someone, since someone taught it, then you should”

“No one taught me kung fu.” The ancient grandpa sighed and shook his head, “But I believe that the last three days are real, but it may be that my kung fu is too shallow, so you don’t want to lure me to practice.”

“Then how did you get this ability?”

The ancient grandpa narrowed his eyes slightly. At this moment, he is not like the leader of the underworld who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years. Instead, he has become like an old man at the entrance of the village basking in the sun. The whole person seems to be immersed in a slightly eccentric mood. middle.

“That year, I went to the provincial capital to pick up girls with the old bustard in the building. I had stayed in the brothel for a long time, and I didn’t have any special feelings for the miserable appearance of those girls. But that time was different. It was Sanyi I still can’t remember clearly in 2032, anyway, there was a big flood. We went out from Gaoyang and walked along the river road to the provincial capital. There were houses soaked in yellow mud soup along the way, and drowned people everywhere. Dead man. Do you know why the bustard wants to go at this time?”

The old grandfather looked at Yi Tianxing with a slight indifference, and continued: “Because every time there is a flood, many people will die, there will be many orphans, and of course, many families will not be able to survive. Those who know how to sell girls. People who run brothels are all unscrupulous guys, so naturally they will take advantage of the fact that there are many girls selling girls and the prices are cheap.”

Yi Tianxing lowered his head slightly and listened quietly.

“The provincial capital is so big, and there are so many people selling children, how can I read it all in one day? I was just a small teapot at that time, and I wore a short-sleeved mandarin jacket all day long, following behind that old bustard who had painted three catties of powder Behind that mother-in-law, there are girls everywhere.” The old grandfather said here, and suddenly he smiled slyly, and spat a mouthful of phlegm in the corner of the wall.

A malicious smile appeared on the corner of Yi Tianxing’s lips, and a scene emerged in his mind. Thinking of the young old grandfather being crushed under a fat middle-aged woman with thick powder on his face, and living a miserable life, he couldn’t help but Laugh out loud.

In 1931, the Yangtze River experienced the largest flood in the twentieth century, and the torrential waves swept away a large plain in the center of China. The provincial capital narrowly escaped catastrophe, and was immediately occupied by refugees who had survived the flood. Along the Wansong Garden to the water intake building, there were all unkempt, emaciated farmers who had fled.

Back then, the old grandfather was still a young man with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and he walked back and forth in front of these refugees with a bloated middle-aged woman. The middle-aged woman held a handkerchief in her hand and wrapped a few silver dollars in it. Relying on these silver dollars, she can freely pick and choose, from the starving blue-faced girl from the east family to the muddy young girl from the west family.

Gu Yong is not a kind person, so naturally he would not share his kindness with these hundreds of thousands of refugees. It’s better to have a way out than to die in this provincial capital, isn’t it?

So he still followed that with lowered eyebrows as usual, and still pinched the chins of those little girls roughly as usual, telling them to open their mouths, looking at the mouth of the teeth like looking at livestock, and seeing the green on the tongue coating Is it white or yellow or something?

He just did this kind of unconscionable but life-saving work until his slender fingers touched a woman’s chin. The delicate touch like jade made him stunned for a moment, so he stood up straight, After taking a closer look, I realized that the girl in front of me was so beautiful, even the dusty face could not hide the picturesque eyebrows, and the pale face due to hunger was even more elegant.

Yi Tianxing laughed when he heard this.

“You are young and young, how can you not be kind to the young man on the Spring Ridge who meets the slave in the dust, this story will begin” he thought in his heart, looking at the underworld old man who was intoxicated by the past with a smirk on his face Son.

“Don’t get drunk, Go on, let’s get to the point quickly. He kindly reminded the old grandpa, “The next thing is that your big-ass old bustard must have taken a fancy to this girl, and then you made up your mind to save this girl, so you stuffed money into her in the middle of the night and let her escape. Then you were kicked out by the old bustard, lived on the street, offended some evil force, and then by chance, you were rescued by someone, and then you got a whole lot of kung fu in a daze.”

Yi Tianxing rubbed his nose and arranged the storyline of the year on his own.

The old grandfather’s wrinkled face turned red, and he shouted, “How do you know?”

Yi Tianxing was shot by him, and the pain in his chest and abdomen was unbearable. Later, he found out that this old guy was just trying. Although it was inconvenient to twist the neck of this smiling old fox, he was still full of hatred. Listening to him at this time Embarrassed to ask the question, he returned a very contemptuous glance and said: “This is the same in the script, with your IQ, how can you act in other dramas?”

The ancient grandfather put his skinny palms on his knees and stroked them gently, as if he was trying to remember something: “What you said is basically right. It’s just that I didn’t let that girl run away.”

“Oh” Yi Tianxing was a little surprised.

“I didn’t let her go.” The old grandpa squinted his eyes, and there was a hint of slyness in the slits of his eyes, “I took all the silver dollars in the account room while the old bustard and the thugs were asleep that night, and then took the girl ran away”

Yi Tianxing was stunned for a while, then stretched out his thumb in a daze, and praised: “Handsome, handsome enough to alarm the Jade Emperor, no wonder God wants to help you.”

This is the little man’s appreciation for the old man.

I’m going to the hospital in the evening, and I don’t know if I can come back to write the article at that time, so I asked for a leave in advance, and the next
