At noon on the 9th, the sun hung high overhead.
All the brothers from the Zhenxing Gang crowded into the main hall to rest.
Gang Leader Wang raised his hands and shouted: Brothers, please be quiet!
"Hurry up and sit down for me." Head Six squeezed into the center of the hall and shouted:
Gang leader Wang said: The weather is hot now, so it is not appropriate for brothers to go out to exercise at noon. After eating, everyone goes back to the room to take a nap.
"Fifth Master, go and ask the kitchen to bring the food in." Shitou called:
"Deputy gang leader, it's not yet noon..." the brother below said:
Shitou continued: "This brother is right. There are still two quarters of an hour before noon, which is a bit early."
However, in mid-summer, people's bodies and minds tend to be in short supply. Our three meals a day must be pushed forward. Lunch breaks are set from 12 noon to 3 pm, breakfast is set at 6:30, and lunch is set at 11:00. , dinner is set for 17:00.
"It's early! What should we do if we are hungry at night?"
"yes!"
"Brothers, brothers, there will be another meal in the evening. At 8:30 p.m., we will have the kitchen cook a side dish."
"This is a good idea, the gang leader is thoughtful."
"Brothers, why don't you thank the gang leader!" the seventh master shouted:
The brothers thanked: Thank you, Gang Leader!
"Gang leader, the meal is here." The fifth leader stepped into the main hall and called:
Shitou shouted: "Master Wu, please bring it up quickly."
"Gang Leader, sit down." Gang Leader Wang called:
"Brother, the weather is hot. The deputy gang leader and Brother Fu went down the mountain without any food to escape the heat..." Xu Banxian said:
"Brother Xu, the two of them often go out to do errands. They can overcome such small things by themselves." Shitou interrupted:
"Brother, you don't even call me to eat."
"What are you doing here! You stay in the room and eat!" Shitou called:
Lin Fan responded: The room is too stuffy, I'll come out and eat with my brothers!
"Brother Lin, come here, come here." Gang leader Wang moved his stool and called:
"Brother Lin, let me pour you some wine." The seventh master said:
Lin Fan then said: Don’t pour it too full!
"Just drink, don't get drunk." Shitou warned:
"Don't worry, I won't let you hit the flesh that has just grown on my butt." Lin Fan replied:
"Everyone says - one learns from one's mistakes. From this point of view, this sentence is quite effective." Shitou sneered:
"Is it possible that it won't work? If your butt is exposed, whoever you put it on will feel better!" Lin Fan replied:
"Brother Lin, your injury healed too quickly, right?" Xu Banxian reminded:
"Xu Banxian, you mean!" Lin Fan called with a straight face:
"If you suffer the same injury again, you won't recover that quickly." Xu Banxian responded:
Lin Fan said angrily: "You want to ask him to hit me again."
"Why are you so unreasonable! You are like a piece of dog-skin plaster. Once it sticks to someone, no one can get rid of it." Xu Banxian said:
Lin Fan replied: Your metaphor is very apt. I am a dog-skin plaster - true, but it can cure diseases. What are you! Who are you? You will just stand aside and fart...
"Lin Fan, you've been holding it in for two days, do you want to jump out and bite someone again?" Shitou shouted:
"Brother, you can't be partial, you can't turn towards him." Lin Fan responded:
Shitou shouted: Lin Fan...
"Gang Leader, let's eat." Gang Leader Wang called:
"Brother Lin, let's drink." The seventh master held the bowl and said:
Shitou shouted: Lin Fan, let me tell you...
"What do you mean to me?" Lin Fan replied:
Shitou said: You are the best...
"Brother, the brothers are all watching!" Xu Banxian raised his head and said:
"Brother Lin, please stop saying a word." Gang Leader Wang said:
"Gang leader, there is a group of people coming down the mountain towards the gang."
"Who are they!"
"I don't know! Judging from their clothes, they look like a group of refugees."
"You go and put them up."
"Gang Leader, let me go and take a look!" Gang Leader Wang said:
"Brother Wang, let me go." Wu Dangjia put the bowl on the table and called:
Gang leader Wang responded: Let me go.
"I'd better go." The fifth master stepped forward and said:
Gang leader Wang shouted: Lao Wu, please stay...
"Deputy Gang Leader, let the Fifth Leader go." Shitou shouted:
"Gang leader, I'll come as soon as I go." The fifth leader bowed and said:
Shitou ordered: "Fifth Master, please go and come back quickly."
"Gang leader, I'm going to the kitchen to prepare meals." Gang leader Wang said:
Shitou shouted: Deputy Gang Leader, sit down, we will make preparations after those people come up. It is not clear how many people they have come...
"Deputy gang leader, listen to my elder brother." Xu Banxian said:
"I was too reckless just now!" Gang Leader Wang sat down on the stool and shouted:
Holding the rice between the stones, he argued: You are not reckless, you are impatient.
"Gang Leader, what's the difference between recklessness and impatience?" Gang Leader Wang continued:
"Of course it's different. Reckless means being clueless, while impatient means being disrupted by something." Shitou replied:
Gang Leader Wang smiled and said: Be taught, be taught.
"Brother Lin, what kind of person do you belong to?" Sixth Master asked:
"No need to ask! He belongs to another category of people." Xu Banxian responded:
"Are you that kind of reckless person?" Head Six continued:
"Okay! You crazy person, you are calling me stupid." Lin Fan shouted:
Xu Banxian rushed to say: You have wronged me, when did I scold you - you are clueless!
I want to scold you.
I will also call you "heartless".
"Brother Xu, this word is used brilliantly." The fifth master praised:
"What a fart, he is a fart." Lin Fan stretched out his hand to hit Xu Banxian.
"Lin Fan, your quality is getting lower and lower. As the saying goes: A gentleman talks but doesn't use his hands, and a villain can punch and kick like you." Xu Banxian said:
Lin Fan replied: I am a villain, how can I call you an adult in front of you? You are about the same age as my father, so I have to call you "uncle" even if I don't say anything.
"Brother Lin, Brother Xu is so old. Don't call him a bastard. Call him dad - it's just right." The Sixth Master joked:
"Lao Liu, this is a big joke!" Gang Leader Wang shouted:
The Sixth Master "looked at" the stone, "looked at" the brothers, bowed and said: I'm sorry, Brother Lin!
"Nothing! Just kidding!" Lin Fan said awkwardly:
"Brothers, the food has been served for a while. Let's eat, eat." Shitou shouted:
Gang leader Wang then said: Yes, yes, everyone, eat, eat.
"Seventh brother, is Xinruo good to you?" Sixth Master asked:
"Looking at his expression, he must be fine!" Lin Fan said:
"Xinruo is considerate and gentle, and takes good care of me." The seventh master muttered:
"Look at you like this! Your soul is gone." The Sixth Master said:
Gang leader Wang shouted: Lao Liu, you are so shameful.
"Deputy Gang Leader, don't blame the Sixth Leader! Brother Lin's appeal is extraordinary..." Xu Banxian called:
"Xu Banxian, your old bones are itchy, aren't you!" Lin Fan shouted:
Xu Banxian reiterated: Brother Lin, "a gentleman talks but never uses his hands."
Lin Fan continued: You old guy, you are so out of date. Anyone who has signed a contract can break it.
Besides, we don't have any agreement.
"You ran away so fast. Compared with those dead rats, you actually slipped away completely." Xu Banxian called:
"Brothers, give me your opinion! Have I made an agreement with him? Have I?" Lin Fan replied:
"Brother Lin, do you have..." The seventh master said hesitantly:
"Brother Lin, you have an appointment with Brother Xu." The Sixth Master said:
Lin Fan shouted: Deputy Gang Leader, tell me!
Gang Leader Wang replied: I, I, I...
"I understand, you all ganged up to bully me, I clearly..." Lin Fan pointed at everyone and said:
"What do you mean! You are obviously talking nonsense..." Shitou responded:
"Gang leader, most of the brothers are full." Gang leader Wang called:
Shitou shouted: "Brothers who are full, go down first, brothers who are not full - just continue eating here."
The brothers stood up one after another.
They said, let's go...
"Brothers, you must go to bed when you go back to your room. Don't move around at will. I will send people over to patrol. Anyone who dares to violate the rules will be dealt with according to the gang rules." Shitou shouted:
"Gang leader, we have also taken naps before, but the time has not been this long. Suddenly we have to sleep for several hours, and the brothers may not be able to adapt." The sixth leader called:
"Some brothers don't want to sleep, or wake up in the middle of sleep. They can lie down or stand, but they can't talk." Shitou responded:
"Brothers, please don't make any noise during the nap..." Gang Leader Wang shouted:
"Gang leader, those people are waiting outside!"
"You tell them to come in quickly."
The fifth master shouted: Come in quickly.
"Fifth brother, how many people are coming up this time?" Gang leader Wang asked:
The fifth master replied: There are 48 people in total.
"Gang Leader, I'm going." Gang Leader Wang called:
"Join as gang leader! Join as deputy gang leader!" These people knelt and said:
Shitou replied: Dear elders, brothers and sisters, get up.
"Pour them tea quickly." The fifth master pointed at the servants and ordered:
"Everyone, sit down and wait! We just finished lunch. The kitchen needs to be re-cooked for the food you ate. It will take some time during this period. Let's sit down and drink tea. Drink tea." Shitou continued:
"Gang Leader, there are children, old people, and women among these people. How can they fight!" The Sixth Leader approached and called out:
Shitou said: We are short of people in our gang. If they can't fight, we can let them do handymen. Those children, we already have children in our gang, so we will let them read and write together...
"This method is feasible. It can not only help people, but also cultivate new people. Children are the flowers of the motherland and the hope for the future of our gang." Xu Banxian interrupted:
"Gang Leader, the origins of these people are unknown, and if they have bad intentions..." the Sixth Leader whispered:
"Sixth Master, what do you mean?" Shitou responded:
"Gang leader, let's check their details!" The seventh leader muttered:
"Everyone, everyone, listen to me. After everyone has finished eating, I will ask my brothers to take you over to rest. Remember, when you are sleeping - no noise is allowed. There are gang rules posted on the wall of each room. Anyone who violates the gang rules will be dealt with according to the gang rules. In addition, your name, age, and reason for coming here must be written down by the fifth master." Shitou shouted:
"The fifth leader, my name is Hu Quanzhi, I am 35 years old..."
"Brother Hu, please wait a moment." The fifth master shouted:
"Fifth brother, I'm going to get some pen and ink." The seventh master moved the stool and said:
Shitou shouted: Master Wu, please take a break and remember after dinner...
"Gang leader, I will take advantage of my free time to remember two..." The fifth leader replied:
"Gang Leader, there are some leftovers in the kitchen." Gang Leader Wang walked towards the stone.
Shitou asked: How much leftover food is there?
Gang leader Wang replied: On average, there is one bowl per person.
"One bowl, these brothers and sisters are hungry, one bowl of rice will not be enough!" Shitou continued:
"Brother, on such a hot day, a bowl of rice for each person is almost enough!" Xu Banxian called:
"Gang leader, I'll go get those leftovers." Gang leader Wang bowed and said:
"Deputy gang leader, please tell the kitchen to cook another pot of rice porridge." Shitou ordered:
"Gang leader, let's go see those people's information." Leader Six said:
Shitou replied: I won't go.
The Sixth Master then said: Brother Xu...
"I won't go either." Xu Banxian replied:
"Sitting is also sitting!" The Sixth Master responded:
"Master Six, after you have eaten, go back to your room and go to bed." Shitou shouted:
The sixth master said: It's still early, I'll sit down with everyone again.
"Master Six, you don't adapt to the schedule!" Shitou said:
"I feel no discomfort! I didn't go to bed until after 13 o'clock." The Sixth Master replied:
"You said there was no discomfort, what is this!" Shitou continued:
The Sixth Master muttered: After sleeping for a few hours, I felt a little uncomfortable at first...
"Gang leader, the food is here." The fifth leader said:
"Everyone comes here to eat, and then go to register after eating. The meal at noon today is a little short, each person only has one bowl of rice, and there will be porridge in a while. The porridge is being cooked in the kitchen..." Shitou shouted:
Gang Leader Wang shouted: Did you hear this? Come all of you.
These people rushed to the table.
The servants served the rice and the dishes.
These people picked up their bowls and stuffed rice into their mouths desperately.
"Everyone, slow down! Slow down! Be careful of choking on your rice." Shitou shouted:
Some people held their stomachs and coughed: cough cough...
Shitou looked at the child "devouring it" and muttered: This world is really evil!
