Everyone drank another glass of wine with Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma put down his wine bowl, stroked his beard, and suddenly stopped, looking a little embarrassed. The old man coughed a few times, "Ahem, um, Mr. Wang, aren't you okay? What's the matter?
Even so, since we have arrived at this place, I, Ma, will definitely do my best to help, not to mention we are not outsiders!"
What Mr. Ma said made us feel warm in our hearts. We all began to doubt the rumors that the old man had a fiery temperament. Such an amiable old man would not have a big temper.
Seeing the solemnity of the old man's words, Mr. Wang couldn't help but feel moved, and hurriedly said, "Old man, you are serious. In fact, it is not a big deal for us to come. We just want to ask you about two people."
Mr. Ma's face became solemn, "Oh? Who is that person?"
"They are just two old men." Mr. Wang said with a smile, completely ignoring the old man's increasingly solemn face, and said to himself, "Those two old men are said to be from the Loyalty League you introduced. One is fat and the other is thin, with a big face."
A straw hat, wearing a black..." Mr. Wang suddenly stopped talking because he suddenly noticed that Mr. Ma's expression was not right.
"Bang!" Mr. Ma's face turned purple. He raised his big hand like a leaf fan and slammed it on the table, shaking the wine bowl next to him. "Crash!" It fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. Jia didn't wink.
Dao was drinking soup. Jia Dao, who had just taken the hot soup in his mouth, was startled. With a "pop" sound, he spurted out the soup again and sprayed it onto the dishes on the table.
Mr. Ma calmed down, opened his mouth and said, "What the hell!" and then "What a bastard! You bastard!..." He cursed endlessly. He was not at all polite and magnanimous just now.
His posture was completely disregarded that two of the guests in front of him were women. He cursed nationally, locally, and all kinds of things. The curses kept coming, and they lasted for half an hour before he stopped.
We were so shocked that we looked at each other and were dumbfounded. We had never seen such a person whose expression changed so quickly before.
I couldn't help but look at the four characters "harmony and gentleness" written by Mr. Ma himself on the wall, and sighed secretly. These four characters were written in vain.
After scolding the old man, he seemed to be in a good mood. He asked the servant to change a wine bowl, filled it himself, drank it all in one gulp, took a long breath, said "good wine!" and then smiled apologetically at the rest of us.
"My temper is much better now, isn't it? I used to have a really bad temper back then. Oh, by the way, don't blame me, I'm not pointing at you."
At this time, we had not yet recovered from our shock, and we were all speechless. I couldn't help but think, since the old man's temper is much better now, what about his temper back then?
"Come on, come on, drink! Eat vegetables!" the old man thought as he picked up a big piece of sauced pork and put it in his mouth, chewing it hard, completely ignoring Jia Dao's saliva splashing on the vegetables.
A few of us sat blankly, watching Mr. Ma who was eating vegetables and drinking. After a long while, I carefully asked, "Old man, shouldn't we ask, is there any difficulty in this matter that cannot be discussed?"
The old man drank another bowl of wine, nodded to me, smiled bitterly and said to us, "I don't have any reason for it, but this time, I am really embarrassed."
We held our breath and listened to Mr. Ma's talk.
The two old men, fat and thin, did come to see Mr. Ma.
That was more than a month ago, and we arrived at the Loyalty League with two old men at the same time. That morning, Mr. Ma practiced several sets of boxing skills. He had just had breakfast when the servant came and told him that there were two old men.
Wanting to see him, Mr. Ma asked, "What's your background?"
The servant replied, "They just said one was named Wang Da and the other was Li Er. The rest didn't say anything."
Mr. Ma frowned, but he didn't think so. Mr. Ma has a bold personality and likes to entertain and greet friends. Regardless of your background or martial arts skills, as long as you come to your door, you will be warmly received.
This is also the reason why Mr. Ma has an excellent reputation in the world even though he has a bad temper.
Moreover, there are indeed some friends in the world who are not comfortable revealing their origins, but it is okay and they will never ask. If we have a chance to meet in the future, our relationship will become even deeper.
When the servant invited the two old men into the house, Mr. Ma immediately noticed something. After all, Mr. Ma had seen countless people in the world and his eyesight was quite good.
Not that the two people were dressed exactly the same. They were both wearing big black windbreakers and sun hats. Of course, they had taken off their glasses, because it would be too rude to visit friends with dark glasses.
Mr. Ma saw that the two of them were by no means ordinary people, not because of their clothes, but because with a few dollars, even beggars could become glamorous.
Mr. Ma knew from the temperament exuded by the two people's gestures that they were extraordinary. You must know that clothes can be changed, but temperament cannot be changed. Even if a person who has been in power for a long time is dressed poorly,
That kind of magnanimity is extraordinary.
This is also the reason why in ancient times, even though the emperors who visited the country in disguise were dressed in ordinary clothes, they would still be seen through by some discerning people, who would then take the opportunity to flatter the horse and get a better relationship. But if he was a beggar, he would suddenly put on rich clothes, but because he was submissive every day,
If you lower your head to ask for food, your magnanimity is far from enough, and you will be seen through anything you put on.
So Mr. Ma never looks at clothes, only people.
When Mr. Ma looked into the eyes of the two people, he couldn't help but be surprised. These two people must be either rich or noble, and they are definitely rich and powerful, because there was a look of contempt in their eyes, even though they were here.
When I visited Mr. Ma, I didn’t seem to take Mr. Ma seriously.
Although Mr. Ma has a bad temper, he is a well-known character, and of course he is not reckless. He quickly gave up his seat. As soon as he sat down, Mr. Ma realized that something was wrong again, because only the fat old man sat down, and the thin old man just stood beside him, quietly.
standing.
Mr. Ma quickly said, "Brother, sit down quickly!"
The fat old man replied, "I don't need to sit here." There was no hint of anything wrong in his expression, as if it was a matter of course, which shows the high status of the fat old man.
Mr. Ma was not surprised and said haha, "The two brothers are very unfamiliar. I don't know where they come from and where they are going. I am visiting my humble house this time. I wonder if there is something wrong?" These words were directed at him.
The fat old man who sat down said this, because Mr. Ma has already seen that the status of the thin old man is much worse than that of the fat old man. Mr. Ma was extremely respectful at this time and did not show any signs of displeasure, old man!
The fat old man waved his hand and motioned to the thin old man, as if he didn't bother to talk to Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma held back his anger and said to the thin old man with a smile, "Brother, please tell me, if something happens, as long as I, Mr. Ma, can
If I can do it, I, Ma Zhanshan, will never hesitate."
The thin old man faced Mr. Ma expressionlessly and said, "My name is Li Er." After saying that, he lowered his head and faced the fat old man, "This gentleman is Wang Da." His expression was extremely respectful.
"Oh, oh, are you two okay?" Mr. Ma also asked humbly.
The old man's words really made Mr. Ma feel weird. The old man just asked Mr. Ma, what is human beings made of, how much secrets of the human body do you know, and other strange questions.
Mr. Ma came from a rough background. Although he was not uneducated at all, he was really tired of hearing these rambling words of the old man. Before the old man could ask again, Mr. Ma interrupted him.
Mr. Ma coughed dryly, "Brother, you also know that I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child and have no education. I don't know anything about these things. If there is nothing wrong, I won't stay."
At this time, Mr. Ma was already very angry and thought to himself, what nonsense are you talking about here, are you just here to entertain me?
The thin old man looked at the fat old man and said to Mr. Ma, "I heard that there is a man named Long Wu who has some methods for dealing with some strange things. Do you know him?"
My reputation has long been spread to the ears of Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma also knows that I am the apprentice of the master. I do have some solutions to some things. When the old man asked, he nodded.
The old man asked about the city where I lived, and suddenly said, "There is one more thing that you can do." There was no need to ask for help, and it was all you. Your call didn't sound like asking for help, but rather an order.
