There were two men from the Ax Gang in the yard.
They were two middle-aged men with two mustaches, and their clothes were more upscale than the gangsters during the day. They were probably members of the leadership.
"Gang leader!"
What surprised me was that the two middle-aged men actually bowed to Xia Yinmeng.
This bitch is actually the leader of the Ax Gang!
I know Xia Yinmeng must have some kung fu on her body, because her body is very elastic when touched!
But she is actually the leader of the Ax Gang, I really didn’t expect it!
Xia Yinmeng asked: "Have the identities and origins of these two people been found out?"
"No!"
The two shook their heads guiltily.
"waste!"
Xia Yinmeng said angrily: "One day our Ax Gang was attacked by others, and you don't even know what happened!"
One of them said: "Gang leader, please kill them now to avoid future troubles!"
I hid in the dark and looked at Xia Yinmeng, waiting for her answer.
She already tried to assassinate me just now, but failed.
If she continues, she must be raped first and then killed!
Of course, if she finds her way back, she can reconsider killing her, but the first one is indispensable!
It's a small punishment for her!
"Forget it, let's go!"
"I don't think these two people look like assassins, nor do they look like they were sent by the enemy. There is no need to cause trouble!"
The leader of the gang has spoken, and his subordinates dare not disobey.
The three of them came to the wooden ladder that had been set up by the wall and jumped over the wall.
There were two cars parked at the door.
It may seem like an antique now, but at the time, it was still a very new high-tech technology!
The two men got into a car and left first.
Xia Yinmeng got into another car.
"Hello!"
Seeing Xia Yinmeng start the car and leave, I hurried over and knocked on the car window.
Xia Yinmeng was suddenly startled.
When she turned around and realized it was me, Xia Yinmeng rolled down the window suspiciously, obviously not mentally prepared for my sudden appearance.
I opened the door directly and sat in, saying, "Gang Leader Xia, thank you for not killing me!"
"you……"
Hearing this, Xia Yinmeng knew that her affair was exposed, so she raised her hand to do something to me!
Never mind what gang leader she is, it won’t work for me!
With a little grab, I pressed her against the car window and said, "Should we do it in the car or outside?"
Xia Yinmeng said: "Go outside and let's fight to the death!"
"good!"
I kept my promise and let Xia Yinmeng out.
Xia Yinmeng knew that she couldn't run away, but she had no intention of running away.
Before getting out of the car, she took out an ax from under her feet, positioned herself and said, "Come on!"
I said: "Your posture is wrong, let me help you correct it!"
Xia Yinmeng thought it was a duel!
But that’s what I do!
An hour later, Xia Yinmeng's ax had long gone.
Only a pile of broken cheongsam was left at the scene.
In the end, Xia Yinmeng was picked up by his subordinates in a car.
Because she can no longer sit and drive.
The next morning, Zhang Li and I found the Ax Gang’s lair.
But the strange thing is that the place was deserted overnight.
There was no sign of the Ax Gang on the streets.
"strangeness!"
Zhang Li said: "Did something happen last night?"
I said, "That actress turned out to be the leader of the gang. I gave her a hard lesson. I guess she was scared!"
"fair enough!"
Zhang Li said: "Now that she has a sense of awe, she shouldn't be so domineering in the future!"
"Um!"
I said, "Then let's buy a ticket and go?"
Zhang Li said: "Have you thought about where to go?"
I shook my head and said: "Go to the station first, buy two tickets that can reach the far west, and then ask around!"
"Can!"
Zhang Li said: "You are quite smart!"
The five to six hundred silver dollars on his body were too conspicuous.
Before buying the ticket, I exchanged most of my silver dollars for gold beans to make it easier to get on the train.
The direct railway to the west only reaches Pukou at most.
We first go north to Lianyun Station, and then take the Longhai Line, so that we can reach the central Tianshui area.
As for arriving in Tianshui, we can only take one step at a time.
That afternoon, Zhang Li and I came to Lianyun and got on the train to central China.
The total length is more than 1,000 kilometers. With the level of passenger transportation at that time, one would have to spend several days and nights on the train.
Tickets are divided into three classes: first class, second class and third class.
The conditions of the first-class train are similar to those of today's first-class cabin. The seats are spacious and comfortable. There is a sleeper above every two seats to rest on. It is farthest from the locomotive and feels relatively stable when sitting up.
Second class trains have cushioned seats.
The worst was the third-class train, which had hard wooden seats, and the carriage was closest to the locomotive, so the vibration was severe and soot easily drifted into it.
Of course we bought a first-class car, so we were not short of money.
The journey is too long. If you don’t have a sleeper, you will suffer a lot!
It was a turbulent era of warlord rule and melee.
The people are in dire straits.
On both sides of the railway tracks, you can even see many unclaimed dead bodies.
I looked out the window and couldn't help but say: "History has been made beautiful through filters. Many people yearn for this era, but now that we are here, eating is probably a problem!"
"yes!"
Zhang Li said: "So we must find Kunlun Mountain and the Taoist boy as soon as possible. Only in this way can we avoid following in his footsteps!"
After watching for a while, Zhang Li looked away as if she couldn't bear to stare.
I also looked away from Zhang Li.
The first-class seats are divided into small boxes. Each small box has four seats, two berths, and a table.
Opposite Zhang Li and I, two people, an old man and a young man, were sitting.
The old one is almost seventy years old, a retro styler, with a big braid on his back.
Although it was already the Republic of China, many elderly people at that time developed a sense of superiority by being slaves and kept their braids in the coffin.
The little boy is about eleven or twelve years old. He looks simple and honest and talks very little.
I took a look and whispered in Zhang Li's ear: "The old man opposite is a eunuch!"
"ah?"
Zhang Li asked curiously: "How did you know?"
Naturally, I saw it through the Qi Observation Technique.
Although the old man is a man, he lacks the masculinity that a man should have, and he has braids and a smooth face. Taken together, it is not difficult to judge.
Sure enough, when the old man spoke later, his voice was also very shrill, which proved my judgment.
It was boring along the way.
The old man took the initiative to chat with us.
He did not conceal his identity and called himself Eunuch Tao. The little boy next to him was called Acheng, who was his adopted child.
Because the age gap between the two was too big, Eunuch Tao always asked Acheng to call him grandpa.
The two of them were returning to Eunuch Tao's hometown to visit their relatives.
After chatting for a while, I casually said: "Father, do you know where Kunlun Mountain is?"
"Kunlun Mountains?"
Tao Gonggong asked: "Are you going to Kunlun Mountain?"
"yes!"
I said, "Do you know where it is?"
"I know!"
As he spoke, Eunuch Tao gave us a bunch of unfamiliar place names and routes.
Many place names at that time were different from now.
I quickly took out the paper and pen and asked him to draw it.
Soon, Eunuch Tao finished the painting and handed it to us: "Even if you take a bus to Tianshui, you still have more than a thousand kilometers to walk after you get off the car!"
As long as there is a direction, no matter how far you are, you are not afraid!
Zhang Li and I thanked each other profusely.
Unexpectedly, an old eunuch whom we met by chance helped us a lot!
After studying for a long time, Zhang Li carefully put the map away and said, "Father-in-law, how long will it take for us to get to Tianshui?"
Tao Gonggong said: "If nothing happens, we can arrive in seven days, but there will usually be accidents."
"ah?"
Zhang Li said: "How do you say this?"
Eunuch Tao glanced out the window and said, "If the weather stays like this, it would be fine, but once there is strong wind and heavy rain, it is common for roads to be broken and bridges to collapse, which will inevitably delay it for a few days. If the luck is worse, it will not be possible." Fortunately, we will encounter a few evil things. Haha... you will know it soon, no need for me to say more."
Zhang Li and I were in a good mood.
I thought that if I got on the first-class bus, I would be free from worries for a while, and I could even enjoy the pristine scenery along the way.
But Eunuch Tao's words instantly made our moods hit rock bottom.
After dinner on the train, Eunuch Tao climbed into the berth to rest. Acheng was still sitting underneath, looking out the window in a daze.
I pointed to the overhead sleeper and said to Zhang Li: "You should go up and sleep for a while. You have been riding the train all day today."
"OK!"
Zhang Li said: "I'll sleep for a while first, and I'll replace you when I wake up!"
