Chapter Three: Can't afford it(1/2)
After Niu Laodao watched Zhang Ruolin go out, he slowly walked into the room and rummaged through the box for a while, when he pulled out a cell phone that was so old that it turned white.
This phone has been lying in the box for three years and has never rang.
The old man charged up his cell phone and started flipping through his address book after turning it on.
When the name of Third Senior Sister came up, the old man thought about it and finally pressed it.
Toot toot!
After three rings, a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone. The voice was a little clever and asked:
"Niu Wu, I didn't expect you to call me. I have sent you this phone for three years, but it has never rang!"
Niu Laodao coughed twice in embarrassment and said:
"Third Senior Sister, Ruolin is coming down the mountain!"
On the other end of the phone, the woman's voice stopped suddenly. After a moment, the woman shouted excitedly:
"Why did Ruolin go down the mountain? How could you let him go down alone? I've told you a long time ago that Ruolin has a special status. Don't worry about him going down alone?!"
Niu Laodao replied calmly:
"My child has been admitted to Long Province International Business University, and his martial arts skills are not weak, so don't worry. I can't let my child stay in this Taoist temple for the rest of his life like me."
The old woman was silent for a long time and sighed:
"Okay, I understand. When did you leave? I will pick him up. What are your plans in the future?"
The old Taoist was also silent, as if he had made a great determination, and said:
"I just left. I'll arrive at Long City in three days. I have to go to that other place. It's time to settle old accounts."
After hearing this, the woman cursed:
"Niu Wu, I warn you not to die. Mo Tianming is already in the Martial Arts Divine Court Realm. You will only die if you go."
The old man was silent for a long time.
said:
"Senior sister, I have to go! Besides, it's not certain who lives and who dies. I have to fight for another five years for Wakabayashi. I have watched this child grow up day by day, and I can't let go!"
The old woman's voice gradually became calmer and she asked:
"It seems that your martial arts cultivation has also broken through to the realm of the Divine Court. That's okay. I will do my best to protect Ruolin Zhouquan in the past five years. Since you have decided to leave, naturally I can no longer stop you."
Silence again.
The woman said:
"Before I go, I'll go see my sixth junior brother and help my senior sister burn incense. That's it."
The old Taoist seemed to have remembered something and said loudly:
"Senior sister, you should keep a low profile and don't scare the children."
The old woman shouted:
"I'm so low-key in Long Province. As long as Mo Tianming doesn't come to Long Province in person, if anyone else dares to come, I'll kill one of them, so you can rest assured!"
"Don't forget to pick up Ruo Lin." Old Taoist shouted.
But there was already a busy signal on the other end of the phone.
The sixth junior brother mentioned by the old woman is Zhang Ruolin's father.
After hanging up the phone, Niu Laodao thought for a moment and seemed to be uneasy about his third senior sister who had never been reliable.
The phone scrolled to Fourth Senior Sister's name and she called again.
The phone is busy!
The old Taoist had no choice but to give up making phone calls for the time being, packed his luggage, locked the door of the Taoist temple, and left after looking at it for a long time.
Three days later, it was the beginning of the school year, and the train was packed with people.
After the train arrives at the station.
Zhang Ruolin carried two large cloth bags on the left and right, and got out of the car very passively.
As soon as he walked out of the train station, the sight in front of him shocked him on the spot.
There are so many high-rise buildings but no mountains in sight. Perhaps the most prosperous city in China does not have such a thing as mountains.
Cars were lined up in an orderly manner on the road in front of the station square, creating a traffic jam.
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a slovenly beard walked towards Zhang Ruolin with a smile.
One hand had already grabbed Zhang Ruolin's bag and said:
"Young man, I think you are a college student, right? Do you need to register at school? I can take you there. I have a car."
As he spoke, the middle-aged man pointed to a car parked not far away.
Zhang Ruolin frowned and looked at the other party, and said coldly:
"open!"
The middle-aged man was immediately startled by Zhang Ruolin's deep and determined eyes.
He quickly let go of his hand and said with a smile:
"I have a car, a new car! I can take you to school. Besides, this is your first time coming to Long City. You can rest assured that you can take my car. The price is fair and you are a good person!"
Zhang Ruolin really didn’t know the way to Long Province International Business University at the moment, so he asked with a bluster:
"Do you know about Long Province University of Commerce?"
The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly and said:
"I know! Of course I know! I am a native of Long City, and I know every corner that has a toilet. The University of Commerce is not far from here, you can get there in half an hour."
Zhang Ruolin nodded, then picked up his bag and got into the car with the man.
The middle-aged man turned on the ignition, and the car suddenly started shaking, like a tractor starting up.
Zhang Ruolin had never ridden in a car, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. On the contrary, he felt that the car was much more comfortable than a tractor.
The middle-aged man shouted happily:
"Long Province University of Commerce, let's go!"
The middle-aged man seemed quite satisfied with his driving skills. He stepped on the accelerator and the car suddenly jumped forward, leaving only the billowing smoke rising from the rear of the car.
The steering wheel turned around in his hands.
The car body also fiddled with pins left and right for no less than forty minutes before it drove onto a large road with few vehicles.
for a long time.
A series of low buildings appeared in front of Zhang Ruolin.
The middle-aged man said cheerfully:
"The school will be here soon. Get ready to get off the bus, but don't forget your luggage."
As soon as he finished speaking, the car stopped next to a very grand gate.
"The school is here. It's seventy yuan in total. It's not expensive!"
Zhang Ruolin didn't know whether it was expensive or not, so he took out two banknotes from his pocket and handed them over.
Totally seventy.
Seeing Zhang Ruolin get out of the car, the middle-aged man muttered and said:
"This poor guy actually comes to study in a wealthy school. His parents are really confused. Alas! Today's children are so heartless. If they don't study hard, they just know how to make things."
Zhang Ruolin carried his bag and looked up at the school gate. There were a few words written on the big golden plaque.
"Long City University of Commerce."
Zhang Ruolin was a little dumbfounded. The gate looked very similar to the one in the photo, and the buildings inside were all made of blue glass.
But why does this name look so twisted?
Then he took out the photos in the envelope and stood at the gate to compare them for a while.
murmured:
“Long Province International Business University!”
"Longshi University of Commerce?!"
It turns out that the guy who drives the sports car is also a foreigner, and his driving skills are second to none. He just got a car that was about to be scrapped and came out to look for work.
Suddenly, a rapid blast of trumpets sounded from behind Zhang Ruolin.
Before Zhang Ruolin could turn around, a red car rushed straight towards him.
Zhang Ruolin hurriedly hid to the right, and the car also turned to the right.
He hurriedly hid to the left, but the car hit him again. In a hurry, Zhang Ruolin stamped the ground violently, and his whole body flew over the car.
