An old grandpa who opened a canteen? Xia Xin and I looked at each other and simultaneously blurted out, "Grandpa Gu?"
Xiao Bao wiped his tears and asked puzzledly: "You know Grandpa Gu too?"
Xia Xin and I nodded and whispered, "It really is him."
I was a little angry and tried to fight for Xiao Bao. The boy had a good academic record and was number one in the class. Because he went to the supply shop to buy a piece of rubber, he became number one.
Sigh, he had originally held a high position and was the class monitor. Once he grew up, his future would be limitless. He had to become a governor. Who would have thought that he would be destroyed by Grandpa Gu just like that? Wasn't that killing off talented people?
While I was daydreaming, Xia Xin squatted down to look at the clothes that Xiao Bao was selling. There were shirts, pants, hats, all old clothes. No one would buy something like this.
Xia Xin said to me, "People who suffer from soul-leaving disease only have one day. If they can't recover their soul before dawn, they will really die."
I asked, "You're going to send him back?"
Xia Xin said, "I'm going to buy the clothes. Grandpa Gu should have let him off after buying the clothes. "
I said, "I have no objections. Buy it."
"I didn't bring any money," Xia Xin replied.
No wonder he discussed it with me. I took out my wallet and asked the Xiao Bao, "How much is this set of clothes?"
Seeing that someone was willing to buy clothes, the Xiao Bao was so happy that he almost jumped up. He wrapped his clothes with a piece of cloth and tied them into a bundle. He said to me, "I won't take any money. You can go and give it to Grandpa Gu."
I asked Xiao Bao, "Then where is Grandpa Gu?"
The Xiao Bao said, "He said he's in the Void City."
I looked at Xia Xin in bewilderment. Xia Xin also shook her head.
At this time, a gust of cold wind blew and the slip of paper on the back of Xiao Bao's neck fell off. Before it landed on the ground, a loud bang was heard and it started to burn, turning into a small ball of fire that quickly extinguished.
At this time, Xiao Bao saw the woman not far away and called out, "Mom! Mom!"
He stumbled over and Xia Xin and I followed behind him, shouting, "Where's the virtual market?"
Xiao Bao replied without turning his head, "I don't know either."
Since the Xiao Bao was currently in a soul state, women would naturally not be able to see him. But she had a special way. He only saw the candle in the lantern extinguish and light again, and a faint figure appearing on the lantern. The woman knew that he had already found Xiao Bao.
She looked at Xia Xin and me, bowed to us from a distance, and walked slowly home. As he walked, he chanted, "Xiao Bao, follow your mother. Don't run around. "There's a puddle in front, don't fall in …"
Xiao Bao grabbed onto the corner of her clothes and walked forward while bouncing. After taking two steps, he turned around and beckoned us over.
Xiao Bao and the woman left. Xia Xin and I looked at each other while standing under the street lamp.
Now there was one thing for sure. It's just that Grandpa Gu really didn't give up on the deal. If he did, perhaps he was the one who did it and wanted to pass on the news to us.
Xia Xin said, "Grandpa Gu wants to trade in the hollow market? This place sounds like a market. "
I replied, "Let's find someone to ask and see where the market is."
I was going to throw this bag of old clothes away. It's too unlucky, after all. But then again, who knew if there was a way? Keep it.
I put my clothes on and went home with Xia Xin.
Just as we entered the alley, we saw Ma Ke sitting on a rock by the side of the road. His hair wasn't yellow now. It was red.
I said to Ma Ke, "Do you know of a place called the Void Market?"
When Ma Ke raised his head and saw that it was me, his face immediately changed. But in a flash, he calmed down and pointed to the depths of the alley. "The landlord knows. You can ask him."
I was a little puzzled, thinking that Ma Ke was very weird. However, I didn't think too much about it. I lifted my leg and walked towards the depths of the alley.
Xia Xin originally wanted to follow along, but Ma Ke reached out to stop her, smiling mischievously: "Xia Xin, let's go eat something? I'll treat you. How about hot pot? "
Hearing this, I laughed out loud and said to Ma Ke: "Aren't you inviting the eunuchs to visit the brothels?"
Xia Xinyan was so angry that her face flushed red. She fiercely glared at me, and then said to Ma Ke.
Ma Ke's face was very thick, he had fully displayed his true character of a fierce woman, and said: "It's fine if you don't eat, or walk around the streets. What do you want to buy? I'll buy them for you. "
Xia Xin said, "If you don't move away, I won't be polite anymore?"
Ma Ke was getting a little anxious: "What's wrong? You still want to hit me? Aren't you going to stick your chopsticks in your face? "
I can't be bothered with this treasure. I want to go to the rental house and ask the landlord about the empty market. But as soon as I took a step, I felt something was wrong. I turned my head and said to Ma Ke: "How did you know about the chopsticks piercing my face?"
Xia Xin reacted as well, looking at him warily.
Ma Ke stammered, "Fatty Hai and I are both under Brother Long's command, so of course we know …"
He didn't need to lie anymore. We already knew the reason, because Fatty led a bunch of people to charge out from Wu Yang's small courtyard.
His head was still bandaged, but that didn't stop him from shouting, "Catch them! The man is adulterous, and the woman is adulterous. "
When I heard that, my chrysanthemum tightened, aren't the lackeys from Cypress City too impartial?
Two seconds later, I finally reacted. Fatty was saying, "The man castrated the woman!" His face was injured, and his words were slurred and a little slurred …
Twenty to thirty people came from behind me, and even if we fought, we wouldn't be able to fight anymore. I pulled Xia Xin along and ran towards the mouth of the alley.
Fatty shouted from afar, "Ma Ke, stop them."
Ma Ke looked at us both, and actually did not stop us, but ran over to Fatty and said: "Brother Fatty, these two are my relatives, please give me some face, about this matter …"
"Pa …" Before Ma Ke could finish his words, he was slapped in the face. The fatty then kicked his stomach, causing Ma Ke to roll on the ground. "Pah! What f * cking face do you have?"
The fat man cursed and rushed at us again. One of the lackeys behind him gave Ma Ke a kick. At first, Ma Ke was still shouting, "We are all brothers, why don't we give each other face? "Those two really are my relatives. They're both part of us …" Later on, he could not even speak.
When I saw this scene, my head felt like it was on fire. I didn't want to run anymore, so I grabbed a stool from the steamed bun stand at the entrance and stood at the mouth of the alleyway while smashing it.
Xia Xin didn't run. She held a shiny knife in her hand. Under the illumination of the road lights, she weaved back and forth like a bolt of lightning.
Fatty had a lot of people, but they were stuck in the alley and couldn't get out. One good thing about this is that the narrow alleyway allows only two people to charge up at a time, so our record keeps going up.
Two against two, two against four, two against eight, two against sixteen, two against thirty-two.
By the time I was out of breath and could no longer move the bench, everyone in the alley was down.
I paid a great price for it, too. He had been hit on the arm and several large bags on the head. I looked at Xia Xin and was surprised to find that her hair hadn't been messed up.
I thought: If I had known she was so powerful, why would I have rushed forward?
We went back into the alley. On the way, I carefully observed that the hooligans were unable to stand up because of Xia Xin.
Her blades were all stuck in her joints. It would be best for these people to go to the provincial capital and hang up an expert ID. If they delayed their illness in a small place like Cypress City, they would very likely become cripples.
After injuring so many people, we won't be able to stay in this small courtyard no matter how generous we are. We came back to look for Ma Ke.
Compared to his brother, Ma Ke was actually the least injured. After all, he had only been kicked a few times.
I reached out to help Ma Ke up, but who knew that he would slap my hand away and say with disdain: "Stinking man, don't touch me." After that, he looked at Xia Xin with a hopeful expression.
I was a little speechless.
Xia Xin didn't have any intention to support Ma Ke at all, so he could only support himself by supporting himself on the wall to stand up.
I said to Ma Ke, "Follow us. Otherwise, Brother Long won't forgive you. "After all, it was your relatives who injured him."
Ma Ke muttered, "What do you mean by won't forgive me? Brother Long and I have a close relationship. It's just a small matter, and it's just a beating, what's the big deal? "
I dragged him and said, "Enough nonsense, let's go."
Fatty was lying on the floor, unable to get up. He was still cursing, "Fuck you!"
Xia Xin bent down and took out Fatty's wallet …
We sent Ma Ke to the Cypress City. He's a student here, and when we were on the bus, I heard what he said when he called the head teacher.
The Cypress City was very backward, and their education was similarly not developed. And Cypress City's admission score is the lowest in the entire city, mm... Teachers were paid and students were given their diplomas. In short, they spent their days there.
Xia Xin and I entered the room with a dirty-looking student in the middle of the night, but the guard let us through without even asking.
I asked Ma Ke if he knew of the virtual market. Ma Ke said he didn't know, but he was sure of it. He told me that Cypress City doesn't have this kind of place, because he had already explored every small and large market long ago.
I was going to drop him off at the dormitory. But Ma Ke said that there was nowhere for us to go right now, so it would be better for us to go to his dorm to rest for a while, and then find a room at dawn.
Xia Xin and I agreed after a brief discussion. When we reached the bottom of the dormitory, I suddenly received a call from Mr. Zhao.
He was a little anxious over the phone, "Eldest nephew, what's going on? Why were there so many people in the courtyard? Are the Cypress City delinquents having a big military parade? "
I stomped my foot. I forgot to notify Mr. Zhao. Didn't he just run into a bullet hole when he returned to that small courtyard? Fatty had probably called all the hoodlums over for revenge.
