In the car, Wang Dan saw Hun Xi crying from a distance through a small crack in the curtains. He couldn't help but feel his heart sinking, unable to control his empathic "heartache" at all.
"Old friend! Old friend!"
He even burst into tears.
After all, as I get older, it becomes increasingly difficult to control my emotions.
In particular, there are even fewer people who can talk to him, have a common language, and know everything about him. This year or next, everyone is rushing to the "Hall of Hell"!
Wang Dan couldn't sit still, but he was afraid that showing up rashly would embarrass Hun Xi, so he still pinched his hand tightly and let this "impulse" that didn't belong to the old man, forcefully, It disappeared.
After regaining his composure, Wang Dan also welcomed the return of his two masters, Yang and Zhao.
The three elders, in the carriage, sighed and were filled with emotions.
"Brother Yang and Brother Zhao, please speak to Mr. Xiang Chong for what I have to say. I have some private matters to deal with. I have to stay in Guodu, Tan Kingdom for more than a month. Please help me continue my eastward journey. After I have made arrangements, I will Follow everyone."
When Wang Dan asked for leave from the two of them, he was also "valuing affection and righteousness." Yang Feng and Zhao Huai had no reason to respond, and they all saluted and replied:
"Brother Dan values brotherhood and is so righteous! If we have friends like this, we will be lucky for the rest of our lives! Please do it! Take care!"
The three of them parted ways. Wang Dan decided to use his own methods to help Hun Xi; while Yang and Zhu continued to chase Xiang Zhong, that Hun Xi boy.
Wang Dan clearly remembered that the last time he saw Hun Xi, he came back from Wei State; but he had no idea why he moved to Tan State.
No wonder, the agreement to get together every year was inexplicably interrupted for a few years and never renewed.
Even Luan and Zhai Fei did not bring back any news.
Now, Hun Xi, this old guy, is not far away.
Wang Dan suppressed his excitement, went to a clothing store, bought a "red dress" that most resembled that of the past, and put it on; he also went to a pastry shop opened by Weiren and bought a piece of clothing today. The human version of "Liu Xia Palace Pastry" slowly approached Hun Xi, his old friend.
Hun Xi was sitting on the street, continuing her "begging" business. Suddenly, a man in dazzling red clothes passed by and stopped in front of her. When she picked up the Weiguo pastry wrapped in oil paper and red string, it appeared from above. Next, it stopped in front of his face, revealing the familiar smell of his hometown...
"'A... point of red?'"
"Brother Xi!"
"..."
"..."
Once the song "Weeping in a Stalemate" is no longer speechless, the two voices are "turning the river upside down" and they are side by side again.
In their excitement, before they knew it, the two old brothers had already sat down in a nearby wine shop, with all the food and wine ready, just waiting to "reminisce over the wine."
"Haha, what you're saying, Brother Li, if a person spends his whole life letting others suffer from diseases, even if he can cure the diseases of thousands of people in the world, he can't cure himself, so he has abandoned us two long ago! But! Sigh! Ridiculous!"
Wang Dan mentioned their common old friend, Piao Li, the master of Jishi Pavilion when he was young, and pretended to be relaxed and "laughed about life and death."
"No! God has been kind to him. He knew the hardships in the world and took him in early to enjoy the blessings. Unlike you and me, now at this age, we still have to suffer the pain of living without a fixed place and sleeping in the open air! I don't even know how to envy him. Brother Ion!"
When Hun Xi talked about the "death" of Piaoliong, she was filled with envy.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. In a few years, you and I will have to go see him. When we get there, the three of us will have a drink together and pour out our verses!"
Wang Dan has seen too many separations, separations, and reunions over the years. He has long been indifferent to life and death, and will not take himself out of it.
"Haha, good point! Come, have a drink for Brother Li!"
Hun Xi also filled a glass of wine for Tie Li, who was not present. Before the two of them toasted, she poured the wine on the floor beside the table for him. Suddenly, the aroma of sake spread all over the table below.
“Good wine!”
Wang Dan drank the wine in one gulp and praised.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
The topic of this chat has gradually become more about the topic from the beginning of mutual saving of face and superficial scribbling.
"Did this leg of yours hurt you? What will happen to you? You have always been defending the country, and now you are here to live in the country of Tan?"
Wang Dan finally couldn't hold it back and asked in a deep voice.
He couldn't imagine how painful it must be for a person who has made a living on horses all his life and now can no longer sit on a horse.
"Alas... Digou from the north kidnapped my beautiful wife and took them all in the name of harvesting grass. I went to pursue her. There were many Digou people, and they bullied one of them. I was exhausted. We fought for more than ten rounds, but in the end I couldn't Shen fell off his horse, and his leg was cut by the demonic sword, which was irreparable. At this point, alas..."
When Hun Xi talked about this passage for the second time in one day, he suddenly understood. He raised his head suddenly, stared into Wang Dan's eyes and said:
"Could it be that the two wealthy and kind people today are your friends?"
Wang Dan knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he lowered his eyelids halfway, blinked, and acquiesced.
"By the way, you've been watching me for a long time. How are you doing?"
Hun Xi's tone became a little higher.
"I'm sorry! I didn't think well at first. I should agree to meet you, and what kind of nonsense I should say. Wouldn't it make you feel uneasy at first... I'm sorry! Old friend! Come, I'll give myself a drink as a punishment!"
Wang Dan poured himself a full cup and drank it all in one swoop. His face turned red because of the spicy food, but he still maintained a sincere look on his face, without any bitter look on his face.
"Forget it, how can I argue with you! Haha, I am good for myself, but I am bad, and I can't see the old acquaintance coming... Come on, don't talk about whether you are right or sorry, it is a rare day today Come together, come and have a drink!"
"Drink victory!"
…
After drinking, the two of them were helped to go to the toilet to vomit or defecate. It was really unbearable. If it weren’t for the amount of money they gave them, the people in the restaurant would have killed these two smelly old guys. It was thrown into the street.
"Brother, are you going to sleep at the guest house tonight?"
Wang Dan asked while holding Hun Xi, who was almost unconscious from drunkenness.
"Me? There is a temple of earth among the fruits at the end of the street, it is Guodu, come here, come, wait for me to take you there! Tonight, let's sleep together!" 'Let's sleep together! Haha, okay!"
Hun Xi muttered, her only remaining leg couldn't support herself, and all her weight fell on Wang Dan.
"Go! Go! Okay! Okay! Okay, Brother Xi, hold on, we're coming soon!"
Wang Dan didn't mind, so he put his arm around his neck and let him hook it, and they walked back to the table together.
"Let's take a room together so we can rest tonight."
In response to the large piece of gold thrown on the table, the guys shouted "Okay!" They quickly packed out a "big bed room" and invited the two uncles to stay overnight.
One is rich and the other is slovenly. They are both old. It is a miracle that they can live together!
The store clerks were talking secretly, thinking about sending the old man off quickly so that he could get off work.
This is the last table of guests tonight.
"Closing!"
