The train's flute sounded and the speed slowed down. After a while, it finally stopped steadily. Ma Xingkong stretched himself and said, "Throughout the whole night, this thing is still fast.
!If you ride a horse, you still have to walk for a day!"
Long Jie was young and curious about everything he saw. He hurriedly got off the train with Hei Wa and was surrounded by people. Selling cigarettes and melon seeds and selling candied haws became his targets. The two pieces of ocean in his hand were very
Soon it was replaced by various kinds of food.
They had no luggage, so as long as the guns in their arms were not discovered, it was a good thing. Following the crowd out of the train station, they were stunned by the sight in front of them. Rows of low-rise houses, with porters carrying various objects.
They hunched over and walked to the carriage or car one after another. When they saw another person coming out, several rickshaw pullers rushed over to grab the business.
"This is the capital city? Is it the same as our Hunhe River? It's just bigger!" Shitou curled his lips and said a few words.
The capital was not as good as they imagined, at least the sky was not as blue as the Hunhe River. They bundled up and found an inn, where a few people stayed. Seeing that the waiter was a foreigner, he spoke with a bit of arrogance.
The look in their eyes is all squinting, which is the sense of nobility bursting from the bones of the people in the capital.
"This is your guest room. If you want to eat, go to the front hall. Boil water in the backyard. If you have nothing to do, it's best not to hang out. You can't afford to offend anyone you bump into on the street!" The waiter said this as a good intention: "If you don't listen to me,
We are not responsible if the trap is revealed!"
Liu Wu smiled and took out a silver dollar from his arms and handed it to the waiter. The waiter's attitude immediately made a 180-degree turn, his eyes opened, his eyebrows were raised, and there was a trace of emotion on his face.
Liu Wudao smiled: "We came from out of town to visit relatives, and we are not familiar with the place. Thank you for reminding me!"
The waiter smiled and said, "You're welcome, I'd like to call you if I need anything! Look at it, it's really costing you money!" He put away the silver coins and chuckled: "The ground outside is not very level recently, I haven't been a student all day.
If you cause trouble, the police will arrest you. You are the target of interrogation in your hometown. Don’t go out if you have nothing to do. If you are caught by the police, you will be in trouble!"
"Thank you very much!" Liu Wu cupped his fists and raised his hands: "The second brother must be a local. He should know Baochao Hutong, right?"
"Baochao Hutong? Where are you going?" The waiter at the shop became alert: "Not everyone can go there! Do you know who lives there?"
Liu Wu smiled and said: "We just want to go somewhere to visit our relatives. Why is this alley closed to outsiders?"
The waiter looked up and down at the people in front of him. He spoke with a Nanhe accent. He suddenly remembered that the president of Zhongnanhai was not long ago from Nanhe. The son of the president lived in Baochao Hutong. Could it be that these few
What's the relationship with the president?
The waiter in the shop was a little scared. He hurriedly took out the piece of ocean Liu Wu had just given to him from his arms and handed it over with both hands: "Everyone, I am short-sighted. I hope you can bear with me. This Baochao Alley is right here..."
Just when we were talking about the key point, the shopkeeper shouted from the front yard downstairs. The waiter hurriedly put the piece of ocean on the table, turned around and ran away, running out of the supplies as if running away. Hei Wa sighed for a long time, Diao Xiao
Erdu did not reply. Ma Xingkong smiled: "This Baochao Hutong seems to be really famous. Maybe there is a big shot living there!"
Liu Wu nodded: "Otherwise, Zhang Hanmin wouldn't have sent a battalion to garrison an alley!"
"If this kid doesn't tell us, we'll go out and look for it ourselves tomorrow. Can we eat now? I'm so hungry that my chest is pressed to my back!" Shitou threw his old baggage onto the kang and pulled up Hei Wa and Long Jie.
The arm goes out.
A few people came to the lobby chatting and laughing. It was a bit deserted before they reached the dining stall, so they found a seat by the window. They ordered a large table of dishes and some of Beijing's famous roast duck. Unfortunately,
It wasn't baked in Quanjude. I was a little hungry, so I picked up the plate, picked up the bowl, and ate it all upside down.
While picking his teeth and drinking, Ma Xingkong noticed that the way they were eating had attracted the attention of others. On the contrary, the two young guys sitting at a table inside did not look at them.
She is delicate and fair, and her movements are full of magnanimity. She is wearing a moon-white gown, her hair is combed smoothly, and she wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Her fingers are like a woman's hands. The two people next to him are tall and tall, with big shoulders and round waists.
, you can guess where they came from by looking at their hands, they are either bandits or soldiers. There is a callus on the tiger's mouth of the left hand, the index finger of the right hand is thick, the arms are strong, and they sit there motionless.
Liu Wu poked Ma Xingkong: "He should be a soldier, don't look! Don't cause trouble!" Ma Xingkong looked away, raised his head and drank all the wine in the bowl.
Suddenly there was a commotion on the road at the door, and the people ran eastward like crazy. Heiwa immediately climbed to the window and looked out: "'Lengzi' is coming! There are many people, and they are looking for something from door to door!"
"
Shitou stood up immediately and reached out to touch his arms. The diners threw down their chopsticks, squeezed out one by one, and ran away with the crowd. The shopkeeper bowed and said: "Everyone, I'm sorry, hurry back to the house.
Come on! It’s not good to let them see it!”
Ma Xingkong didn't move, and glanced at the young man. The man didn't move either, minding his own food and drink. Ma Xingkong became interested in competing.
"Bang!" The waiter in the store had just climbed up a door panel and was kicked open by someone from the outside: "Boy, you are so brave. Seeing grandpa coming, you dare to close the door? Take it away!"
The shopkeeper came over in a hurry: "Master, I don't know who you are..., I know your Director Hu very well, come here, come here, have a smoke!"
"Hu Ergou is a fucking piece of shit. He doesn't care about where he comes from. Don't do this to me. Tell me, are there any strangers in the store recently?" The leader of the soldiers grabbed the shopkeeper's hand.
He walked out to the big front door, smoked one himself, and stuffed the rest into his breast pocket.
"No! Absolutely not! The people who live here are all serious businessmen!" The shopkeeper took out a match and lit a cigarette for the guy.
The guy took a strong drag and spit out the tobacco in his mouth. The little triangular eyes scanned the hall. It was obvious that Ma Xingkong and the others were not familiar with the person inside. The guy asked
Said: "What are these two groups doing?"
Without waiting for the shopkeeper's answer, the young man inside put down his chopsticks, took out his white cloth handkerchief, wiped his mouth, and slightly raised his eyes: "Come here and I'll tell you!"
Thinking that there would be some benefit, the guy took a square step, grabbed the handle of the gun with one hand, and staggered towards the young man. Just as he moved to the edge of the village, the two people at the young man's table suddenly stood up and held two guns.
The short gun suddenly appeared in front of the guy. Looking at the black muzzle, cold sweat suddenly broke out.
