A week later, near the New Year, it was lightly snowing at Weihai Port Passenger Terminal in the eastern part of Shandong Province, at 3 p.m.
At this moment, the pier was crowded with people, gongs and drums were beating, red flags were waving, and the fluttering snow did not affect people's enthusiasm at all.
Du Weiguo was wearing an old military coat, beige military trousers, yellow big-toe shoes, a cotton hat on his head with a low brim, and a red badge on his chest.
Du Weiguo stooped slightly, restrained his sharpness, and squeezed together with the crowd of people seeing him off, disappearing from the crowd and looking inconspicuous.
"Woo~"
A long whistle sounded, and on the sea not far away, a ferry bound for Jinmen City was slowly leaving the pier.
The farewell crowd and the travelers on the ship's side burst into deafening cheers at the same time. They were all excited and excited, waving the small notebooks in their hands desperately.
On the side of the ferry, Kumoyo was also caught in the rolling crowd. She was wearing a slightly oversized military coat, a half-worn military cap, and a red band on her arm.
A red woolen scarf covered most of his face, revealing only a pair of beautiful big eyes, filled with autumn water and flowing eyes.
Her eyes seemed to be able to travel through time and space, crossing the sea of people, staring at Du Weiguo on the dock, with a faint fragrance and endless affection.
The reason why we chose Weihai Port instead of the more convenient Bincheng is because the sea-going ships in Bincheng have been suspended this season.
As for land transportation, Kumoyo resolutely refused. She refused to tell the specific reasons, but Du Weiguo probably had a prediction in his mind.
Taking the land route from Bincheng to Beijing, you must pass through Jincheng. Big Fox's hometown, Lushan, is right next to Jincheng, or maybe she has something to hide.
Hey, even in a fairy's home, there are rules and lawsuits!
The ferry went further and further away, and finally slowly disappeared above the sea level. The crowd of people seeing off at the pier gradually dispersed and became deserted.
Du Weiguo was still standing on the pier blankly, facing the biting sea breeze, looking far away towards the north.
His eyes were distant, as if he had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, returned to Sijiu City, and returned to that dreamy courtyard. Du Weiguo wanted to see Yang Caiyu wake up with his own eyes!
But he couldn't, because the damn author, Lao Gou, didn't dare to write about the current Forty-Nine Cities, and he wouldn't be allowed to go back, life or death.
After a long time, Du Weiguo withdrew his gaze, looking a little lonely. He was about to take out the cigarette case, but suddenly stopped.
There are currently only two kinds of cigarettes in his space, one is the filter-tipped red panda that he would never smoke, and the other is the golden-mouthed black-stemmed longevity cigarette.
These two types of smoke, under the current circumstances, cannot be exposed even if they are alive or dead. They will really die!
At this moment, there were not many people on the pier. A fat black man wearing a blue cotton coat slowly approached Du Weiguo, lowered his voice, and asked mysteriously:
"Comrade, do you want a cigarette?"
The fat black man's eyes were very clear, and he immediately discovered the business opportunity. Du Weiguo raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help but become interested. He also lowered his voice and asked with a bad accent:
"Brother, what cigarettes do you have here? How do you sell them?"
The fat man looked around sharply and introduced in a low voice:
"I have two types, Daxianmen and Daqianmen. Daxianmen costs 4 cents for 2 sticks, and Daqianmen sells for 5 cents for 2 sticks. We don't just sell them."
"Selling based on roots?"
Du Weiguo raised his brows, thinking that he was a little surprised. When he heard this, the fat black man's eyes suddenly lit up. He had met a big customer.
"Comrade, I think you are also an open-minded person. If you buy it in boxes, you will get 35 cents from the big production store and 45 cents from the big front door. Make friends and don't need cigarette tickets."
Damn it! It’s so dark, you’re trying to make a dime out of me with tears in your eyes!
Big production stores sell them for 28 cents in the supply and marketing department, and no tickets are required at all. Daqianmen sells them for 35 cents. Anyway, no cigarette tickets are required to buy them in Four-Nine City.
Seeing that Du Weiguo was silent, the fat black man thought he was too expensive, so he explained:
"Comrade, now in the supply and marketing cooperatives, you have to get a receipt to buy cigarettes. I did it with great difficulty, and I had to do some tricks in the process."
Du Weiguo smiled, and finally found a 1-dollar note from the space, and handed it to the fat man:
"Bring me 2 boxes of large front doors, do you have them?"
"Yes, yes, comrade, here it is for you."
The fat black man quickly collected the money with lightning speed, then reached out and touched it in his arms.
The two cigarette cases were already stuffed into his sleeves, and then handed to Du Weiguo without any trace.
Ouch, that's interesting, the technique is very smooth, and it's also very hidden!
Du Weiguo thought it was quite interesting, and he became more playful and wanted to tease the fat black man in front of him. With a light touch of his fingers, he put the two cigarette boxes into the space, incredibly fast and without leaving any trace.
The fat black man felt his arms suddenly loosen up, and the two packs of cigarettes disappeared. He was immediately shocked.
Although he is not a Buddha from the lower nine sects, he has been in the world for a long time and is well-informed. Du Weiguo didn't move his arms or wrists just now, but only moved his fingers. Such a technique is simply unheard of.
Du Weiguo saw the fat black man stunned. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He tore the cigarette case in the space, took out a big cigarette, and held it in his mouth leisurely:
"Brother, I don't need you to pour money. I've made a friend and just bring me two boxes of matches."
Du Weiguo's move had completely shocked the fat man. He thought he had met some hidden master who was living in the world.
The fat black man hurriedly struck a match, with a flattering expression on his face, and helped Du Weiguo light the cigarette with his hands clasped together.
"You, are you talking about Bai? A master of the eighth hole?"
Du Weiguo exhaled the smoke and laughed. He said that he was a legendary door-stealing master, even better than Buddha.
Shangbadong is the collective name for Qianmen, among which Diaobai is the thief. The legendary Kunlun Mo Le and Gu Shangfiao Shi Shiyi are both Diao Bai. Of course, Du Weiguo had heard Han Wen recount these anecdotes about the rivers and lakes before.
"Brother, what are you talking about? What does it mean to be ridiculous?"
The fat black man's eyes flickered, and he did not continue to dwell on this issue. He subconsciously licked his lips and whispered furtively:
"Man, I'm just talking nonsense. By the way, I can still pay for the boat tickets, both north and south, and a letter of introduction, but the price is~"
ha! Du Weiguo was amused by him, and he believed that this fat black man was really his big customer, the kind of charlatan who was in a hurry to run away and was not short of money.
At this time, two young men with hoops on their arms and military coats and armed belts around their waists were walking quickly towards this side.
"Made, you are so unlucky, man, you were spotted by them because you were smoking. Go away quickly. If you need it, go to Wen Gong Street~"
After the fat black man whispered an address quickly, he ran away quickly. Du Weiguo looked at his back, grinned, held a cigarette butt in his mouth, and walked slowly towards an alley not far away. .
Just as they entered the alley, the two young men were already chasing after them quickly:
"You! Stop, what do you do? Take out your work permit."
"Hey." Du Weiguo turned around, slowly raised his cotton hat, and showed a charming smile on his face.
After a while, he walked out from the other exit of the alley alone, roughly identified the direction, and drifted away.
Three hours later, it was completely dark. Du Weiguo jumped into a dilapidated small fishing boat on the seashore in Longyan Bay, Weihai.
This boat was manually drawn. A thin, dark man with a dull face steered the boat slowly and leisurely out to sea towards the east.
Another five hours later, the small fishing boat staggered to the high seas, near a cluster of rocks protruding from the sea.
After waiting here for a while, Du Weiguo changed from a small fishing boat to a large fishing boat. This large boat was a fishing boat belonging to South Korea.
Seven days later, on New Year's Day, at 4 o'clock in the morning, Du Weiguo traveled all the way and finally came to the long-lost Baishan City again.
Very similar to last year, this small border town located under the snow-capped mountains is still covered in silver and covered with snow.
The north wind howled, mixed with fine pieces of snow foam. This was not snow, but snow blown to the sky by the strong wind. After it was crushed, it turned into snow crystals and fell down with the wind.
Together with the wind blowing on the face, it is biting and cold. This is the legendary white-haired wind.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
It was still dark, and on the deserted streets, Du Weiguo stepped on the thick snow and slowly walked towards the train station.
There is a statue in the square in front of the Baishan City Railway Station. This is the place where Du Weiguo and Hu Taodai agreed to meet.
Starting from New Year's Day, no matter who arrives first, each other will wait here for 3 days.
When Du Weiguo braved the wind and snow, turned an intersection, and walked about 800 meters away from the statue, he couldn't help but stop and narrowed his eyes slightly.
At this time, a figure stood quietly in front of the statue. It was a man.
This man was about 30 years old, dressed plainly, heavy and bloated, but you could still see that he had a tall and straight figure and a handsome face. The most important thing was that his eyes were also shining with a faint dark red light.
"Is this a relative of Big Fox's family? Has something happened to her?"
Du Weiguo felt a little anxious and couldn't help but quicken his pace. The man also moved at this time, taking long steps and walking towards Du Weiguo.
Soon, the man and Du Weiguo stopped at the same time, almost three meters apart. The man looked Du Weiguo up and down and spoke first:
"Are you Da Du? You are late."
The man's voice was rich and magnetic, but his tone was quite unkind, cold and rude, and even a little bit like he was going to accuse someone.
However, upon hearing the name Du Da, Du Weiguo was even more certain that this man must be a member of Big Fox's family. In the entire China, no one except Hu Da knew the name Du Da.
It stands to reason that Hu Da's family members should be more polite both emotionally and rationally. However, Du Weiguo is now anxious and has no patience for small talk:
"Where's Kurumiyo? Did something happen to her?"
The man glanced at Du Weiguo coldly and said in a harsh tone:
"We have always only had butterfly flowers in our house, and there is no such thing as Walnut Dai."
Du Weiguo suppressed his emotions and spoke calmly: "Yes, how is Hu Diehua doing now? Did something happen to her?"
The man's tone was full of sarcasm:
"Duda, are you thinking about your wife in Sijiu City, or are you worried about Hu Diehua?"
This man was so angry that Du Weiguo couldn't help but feel angry, but he could only suppress his emotions and answered patiently:
"I am concerned about both of them, but since you are from the Hu family, I will only ask Miss Hu."
The man sneered and said in a teasing tone:
"Tch! You are still a passionate child. Hu Diehua is not dead, but she was escorted back to Lushan by the old man. She will not be able to move for a while. She begged me to come over and tell you."
Upon hearing this, Du Weiguo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that he's not dead. The old man in the man's mouth should be the famous Mr. Hu San.
Believing that with his vast magical power, he would definitely be able to keep Hu Da safe and sound. Du Weiguo felt at ease, and his posture could not help but become calm, and he made a fist:
"Sir, thank you for passing the message on my behalf. Does Miss Hu have any other messages?"
The man raised his eyebrows, and his tone was somewhat annoyed:
"What about Miss Hu? She is the fifth one at home, and I am the third brother. I am her third brother. How come she is Miss Hu?"
Du Weiguo curled his lips in an incomprehensible manner, Damn, Hu Da is the eldest girl in the family, how does she have anything to do with your profession?
However, he shouted respectfully: "It turns out it was Mr. Hu San who was disrespectful and disrespectful in person."
This Hu San is a bastard, and his words are a bit disturbing:
"What is Mr. Hu San? My nickname is Hu Tiexian, Hu Diehua's biological third brother. Logically speaking, you should also call me third brother!"
"Uh~ Third brother?"
Damn, are you even a relative? But after all, he was considered an uncle. Although Du Weiguo felt a little disgusted in his heart, he still had the courage to shout.
Hu San naturally saw Du Weiguo's reluctance and snorted coldly:
"Hmph! I'm the same human being as Hu Diehua. I'm 32 years old this year. Why don't you call me Third Brother? Have you wronged me?"
Upon hearing this, Du Weiguo suddenly raised his eyebrows and became interested: "Huh? Third brother, are you also one and symbiotic?"
Hu San's eyes showed a look of disdain, and his tone was very proud:
"Symbiosis? I'm not as stupid as Hu Diehua. I share my body with others. I waited for a beautiful young man who was dying in the hospital, and when he was about to die, I took his body directly!"
Although his tone was triumphant, Du Weiguo heard a key word: "Wait!" This thing probably depends on chance.
Moreover, I vaguely heard the big fox briefly talking about it before, that taking possession of the body and symbiosis have a huge impact on abilities, and they are permanent, so everything has advantages and disadvantages.
Du Weiguo didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so he returned to the topic without leaving any trace:
"Third brother Yingming, by the way, Hu Da, uh, does Hu Diehua have any other messages?"
"Now, she wrote you a letter, read it yourself!"
Hu San looked unhappy, but he still took out an envelope from his arms and handed it to Du Weiguo. Du Weiguo was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped out.
Your uncle's! If you have a letter, why didn't you take it out earlier? Why don't you stand here beeping for a long time!
Du Weiguo quickly unfolded the letter. His calligraphy was in small regular script and his handwriting was beautiful, showing his skill:
"Du Da, you can see the words as well as the face.
The matter in the forty-nine cities has been completed. It can take as short as three months or as long as half a year. Your wife will be restored to her original state.
I'm slightly ailing, but it's not a problem, so don't think about it.
The elders in the family are destined to be here at the moment, so you can go away first. You will definitely go to your old residence in Shinjuku within the year.
Hu Da. "
The short letter was written in semi-vernacular, concise and concise, and the words were obscure. Du Weiguo frowned. What does it mean that the elders in the family have their fate?
Du Weiguo pondered for a moment, and his tone became a bit harsh: "Third brother, has Hu Diehua been grounded by Mr. Hu San?"
Hu San raised his eyebrows:
"Ha! You are quite smart. Yes, she was grounded by the old man. Hu Diehua said you are awesome.
What's wrong with me praising you all over the world? Come with me back to Lushan Mountain and meet the old man? Touch it? "
Also touch it! Will it be black?
Hu San looked like he was enjoying the excitement and was instigating the situation. Du Weiguo slowly folded the letter and put it away.
"She said that within a year, she will go to her former residence in Tokyo, so I will wait for a year. If I still can't see her in the New Year next year, I will go to Lushan Mountain to pay homage in person!"
"Kowtow to the mountain gate? Boy, do you really dare to go up the mountain?"
Hu San's eyes flickered and his tone was a little surprised. Du Weiguo just smiled faintly and did not answer the question. Instead, he took out his cigarette case:
"Third brother, do you smoke? Foreign cigarettes have a lifespan of a hundred years."
As soon as he heard this, Hu San's eyes suddenly lit up. He was as good as Hu Da, and he was also a good guy!
Big Fox is completely offline, and Kurumiyo is temporarily offline.
