After scolding me, I quickly backed away to distance myself from this person. I stepped forward with my left foot and stepped back with my right foot, assuming an eight-step starting position to catch the cicada.
I don’t know what the opponent’s strength is. Although I said it very hard, in fact, my nervous palms were all sweaty!
I thought there would be a fierce battle next! Unexpectedly, he was seen sitting on the lower bunk with his head lowered, letting out a series of weird laughs like "hehehehe".
"Hey Hey Hey....."
He just lowered his head and smiled stupidly for about ten seconds. Then he raised his head and his eyes were confused. His whole temperament changed subtly, as if he was a different person.
"Little brother, who are you?"
I was stunned for a few seconds and asked, "You don't recognize me? I'm your new roommate."
He said with certainty: "I really don't know you, little brother, where have we met before? You were also imprisoned for committing a crime?"
I took a deep breath: "Then do you know Du Xiaoxiao?"
His eyes were confused and he said, "Who is Du Xiaoxiao? I don't know him."
"What's your name?" I asked again.
"My name is Zhao Weiping, what about you? What is your name?"
Seeing that he didn't look like he was pretending, I knew that this was a typical dual personality. He also played another person named Zhao Weiping.
It can be seen from the eyes that the second personality he transformed into is relatively docile, and there is no such violence and madness in his eyes. Of course, he will not make me eat shit anymore.
He stood up, came over, shook my hand, and said, "Today is the first day we meet, so we must celebrate. Do you want to have a drink?"
"You have?"
"Yes! I'll get it for you!"
He stood up, opened the bedclothes, took out a red plastic bag, and picked out a cigarette butt that someone else had finished smoking from the plastic bag. Then he rummaged under the sheets for a long time and took out a box of crumpled matches from nowhere.
He lit the fire, took a good puff, and then handed the cigarette butt to me.
I looked at it and frowned and said, "Brother, you don't have any more. Just one bite and your whole head was burned."
"No, don't worry! I still have it!"
He went to dig through the cigarette butts in the red plastic bag again, and found "real cigarette butts" that were extremely clean.
Seeing this, he said dejectedly: "Hey, no more. I wanted to entertain you originally. If only I had two dollars, I could buy two new ones."
"Brother... no, there is a canteen selling cigarettes here?"
"There's no canteen here," he said.
"Then what do you mean by buying two cigarettes?"
He said anxiously: "There is someone selling them! Old Qin, who lives in Room 403, is related to the deputy dean, so he sells them! Guanting cigarettes! They cost one dollar each!"
I thought for a while and said, "Just wait."
After looking around to make sure there was no one else, I turned around and put my hand directly into my crotch.
After some fumbling, I took out two brand new hundred dollar bills. (I learned Dou Sprout’s method of hiding money, which is to sew a sandwich into the pants.)
When he saw the hundred dollar bill I took, his eyes widened!
I handed it over and said with a smile: "Hey, it's a small thing, just take it and buy a cigarette and come back tomorrow."
He took the one hundred yuan with trembling hands, his expression was a little excited, and he said incoherently: "Brother, I... I'm embarrassed to take your money. If I take it, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay it back in the future."
"Take it, you're welcome, you don't need to give it back."
The task Wu Le gave me was to save a man named "Qin Huiwen". I was about to ask for information about this man when I heard him say happily: "Now I have money! I will buy cigarettes and wine right away!"
I turned my head and glanced at the locked door, and asked doubtfully: "The door is locked, how can you buy cigarettes?"
He chuckled and said confidently: "So what if the door is locked? Brother, please watch carefully, what is the secret technique of the world that is passed down by a single lineage."
He acted so mysteriously that I mistakenly thought he had some wall-walking skills.
Unexpectedly, in the next second he quickly walked to the corner and said quickly to the wall: "Qi Lili, brush la la, the mouse gave birth to a nest of blind babies, blind babies, blind babies, ten will grow up." Ten are blind, and the blind baby calls cat at night, calls cat.”
After quickly reading this strange sentence, he squatted down and kept making strange sounds from his mouth.
How can I put it... It sounds like the phlegm is stuck in the throat and you want to vomit but can't.
This sound lasted for more than two minutes. It was an unexpected and shocking scene!
I saw a little mouse with shiny black hair and a long tail crawling out from under the bed.
He stretched out his hand and put it on the ground, and saw the little mouse swishing into his hand!
"Er baby, your father is not at home? Why are you here?"
The little black mouse squeaked.
He nodded and said: "Oh, I understand. It turns out that your father went out to find something to eat. Er baby, you go to Lao Qin's house and help me carry something. The ward inspection will be at 12 o'clock soon. You must go quickly. Come back."
Who has seen a mouse holding a hundred-dollar bill in its mouth?
Following the order, the black-skinned mouse turned around and ran under the bed with the money in its mouth, and quickly disappeared.
I couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised: "Brother is awesome, you have the long-lost mouse control technique, right?"
"Hey, my little skills are nothing to mention. Compared to my father, my skills are far behind."
"Have you ever said this?"
He explained: "I can only control rats within a radius of one mile. My father is different. His rat control skills have reached the highest level. His range can radiate to the front fifteen miles, the back fifteen miles, and the left Fifteen miles, fifteen miles to the right, which adds up to sixty miles! That’s why my father was nicknamed Zhao Liushouli by the Jianghu people.”
"During the war, have you heard about the rat infestation Tianjin Guard had?"
"What you're talking about...is the food-stealing incident planned by the Qi family in Tianjin?"
He nodded: "Yes, if we didn't have the help of our family's ancestral rat control skills that time, his Qi family alone wouldn't be able to do it."
I immediately cupped my hands and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you, brother, to be a descendant of the anti-Japanese martyrs."
"By the way, brother, it's my first day here and I don't know anyone. Why don't you give me a detailed introduction to some of the people here? For example, where is the gatekeeper? I didn't see him when I came here."
"Shhh... keep your voice down... don't say the word "janitor" randomly here. You and I can't afford to offend those people. Have you never heard of their nicknames in the world? "
"without."
"Well...then I will tell you quietly, there were originally six gatekeepers here, namely the golden-locked Hu Jinlong, the old wood Yang Tianluo, the green-waisted beautiful girl Yang Danling, the water department judge Xu Xiaoqing, and a mysterious and abnormal one. The red-robed Wang Fanfeng and the corpse-laying Zheng Daqiang, by the way, I heard that a new janitor has recently arrived named Zhewu, nicknamed Butterfly Knife, I don’t know what his strength is."
Secretly writing down these names, I thought about a possibility in my mind, "Based on my relationship with Master Zhe, if I successfully find the man named Qin Huiwen, can I ask Master Zhe to let me out directly?"
"Little brother, don't even think about running away! Normally you can't see these gatekeepers, but once you try to run away, these gatekeepers always appear behind you like ghosts! By then it will be too late! "
"Squeak! Squeak!" At this moment, the mouse called.
"Ah! The second baby is back!"
The black-skinned mouse sprang out from the mouse hole under the bed. A box of soft-packed official cigarettes was tied to the mouse, and a starch sausage was also tied to it.
He took down the things and said to the mouse: "Er baby, where's the wine? Also, old man Qin has to ask me for money."
The mouse squeaked again.
"Oh, you said you couldn't get it in one go, right? Then hurry up and go again."
As soon as he finished speaking, the black-skinned mouse disappeared under the bed again.
This kind of soft-packed Guanting cigarettes sells for 80 cents a pack outside, but costs 20 yuan here.
Not long after, the wine also came back, only two taels at most, and the starch sausage was cut into two for the food and wine.
He also didn't forget to feed the black-skinned mouse, but it wasn't starch intestines. I think he fed the mouse something in an instant noodle bag. It looks like dried minced meat.
"Tsk...the wine is okay."
Two people and one mouse, with wine, food, and cigarettes, we lived a relatively comfortable life. I immediately thought to myself that this place is not as scary as the outside world said.
"Drink, brother."
Very suddenly, he held a cigarette in his hand and slowly lowered his head.
.......
the next day.
I tried to open my eyes and looked at myself in the mirror.
I didn't dare to recognize him as a stranger. In the mirror, I had a bruised nose and swollen eyes, a big gaping hole at the corner of my eyebrow, and my forehead was swollen too much.
As I watched, I sobbed in frustration.
I was so fucking unprepared last night.
