Liu Yushu's expression obviously softened a little, and he nodded to me.
I immediately understood what Liu Yushu meant.
"There's no need to pick up that person, we'll go directly there." I said.
After leaving the hotel and getting in the car, Feng Bao drove and Feng Jun sat in the passenger seat.
Shacheng is not big. In about ten minutes, we arrived at the edge of the city.
This is a suburb, but there are no high-rise buildings. They are basically loess brick houses without eaves, and most of them are bungalows.
The car stopped on the side of the road, and there was an open yard in front of it.
As soon as we got off the bus, a middle-aged man in his forties walked out of the courtyard. He was tall and thick, but his figure was somewhat similar to Feng Bao's.
Next to him was a skinny old man. The old man had a cloth hat wrapped around his head. His eyes were slightly cloudy. His old skin and wrinkles on his forehead could almost kill a fly.
He was holding a crooked wooden cane, which was also covered with cloth strips. The cloth strips were obviously old, and many places were damaged and yellowed.
The middle-aged man greeted Feng Bao, then glanced at me and said in broken Mandarin: "Your boss?"
Feng Bao immediately explained: "This is Mr. Luo."
The middle-aged man shook hands with me. He glanced at the wolf mastiff in the car with his peripheral vision, and there was obviously a bit of fear in his eyes.
Then, he glanced at the old man again and said: "Mr. Luo, this is the guide who can take you into Sha Town. We call him the old deaf man here. He can't hear people and can't speak, but he can recognize people." Character."
"Old Deafhead used to be from Sha Town. He is very familiar with the road there. Now that the canal is dry, the yellow sand has covered the river bed. Without him, it would be impossible to walk in."
I nodded, looking grateful to the middle-aged man.
At this glance, I roughly scanned his facial features and did not look at the Bagua Jiugong. However, from this superficial appearance, I could tell that he had no calculations.
After all, the place we are going to is too dangerous for me to be careless.
The middle-aged man took back his hand and told us with a smile that his name was Kasai and that he would prepare things for us to use on the trip.
I hummed, said thank you, and bothered him.
Then Kasai turned around, made a few more gestures with the old deaf man, and patted his chest.
The old deaf man moved his eyelids twice, placed his left hand on his chest, and nodded.
After that, Kasai left with Feng Bao to prepare things for us to enter the desert.
Another woman came out of the yard and led us inside to rest.
The yard is not small, and there are several camels tied inside.
After being led into the living room, the woman came to pour tea again. Wu Wu tasted the tea slowly and looked around.
Liu Yushu, on the other hand, was in a state of silence. He never spoke or looked around.
I fixed my gaze on the old deaf man and took a closer look at his face.
He has an A-shaped face, which is a face shape with a large forehead and a small square frame.
At first glance, this face shape is not good-looking, but in terms of appearance, the person thinks carefully and precisely, handles things step by step, and has plans and steps, and will never do anything risky.
Just based on his appearance, I felt a little relieved.
At least there shouldn't be any trouble if this old deaf man takes him into Sand Town.
If there was danger, he would definitely not take us there.
But I am also wary.
That's this man, I can't believe it, because if he is really in danger, he will definitely run away.
The old deaf man seemed to notice that I was looking at him. He raised his head and looked at me with his cloudy eyes.
I nodded easily and gave him a friendly smile.
The old deaf man also smiled. Although he was also easy-going and friendly, his smile was really unflattering considering the shape of his face. With his big forehead and small chin, his smile was evil.
Face to face, I took another look, just like when I looked at Kaxi, I took a look at his facial features.
At first glance, what I saw was the life gate next to his ear.
It is smooth, and although there are some wrinkles, there are no straight lines.
I was startled for a moment, but I remained calm. The initial vigilance in my heart immediately increased.
This old deaf man is lying!
Although he hasn't spoken to us yet, everyone who knows him in Shacheng calls him Old Deaf Head.
But he is not deaf!
In appearance, people with hearing impairment are either injured and have their ears broken, disabled, or they are congenital.
At first glance, the old deaf man had no injuries on his head or ears.
And there are no straight lines on his life gate!
Hearing-impaired people have different congenital and acquired traits, and the straight lines on their vital gates are also different!
If there are no straight lines in the Ming gate, it means that he is not deaf!
Similarly, the mouth and ears are related. If you cannot hear words, it will be difficult to speak.
But since he can hear words, he cannot be purely mute...
He pretends to be deaf and mute, what’s the secret?
Of course, although I saw this, I didn't say it out loud. Instead, I looked away after that smile.
Pick up the tea cup and drink tea slowly.
My intuition tells me that this old deaf man is not simple, and this Sha Town is probably not as simple as Feng Bao asked.
I'm afraid there will be trouble in this line of work.
