As soon as you enter the Zhang family bathhouse, you will see the counter. A chubby proprietress with curly hair is sitting on the small single bed at the back, holding a cigarette, lowering her head and fiddling with the abacus.
After Chu Heng entered the room, he looked around and took a deep breath of the long-lost moisture. He felt refreshed and translucent. He immediately rushed to the counter and said to the proprietress anxiously: "Sister, take a shower. "
The landlady looked up at his handsome face, her eyes brightened, and then she noticed the impatient look in his eyebrows. Her face instantly drooped, and she said in disgust: "I don't have those messy things. If you are looking for chickens, go to the backstreets. Remember to keep your eyes open, and don’t look for the wrong one. Those who dress like chickens are students, and those who dress like students are chickens.”
"What kind of chicken am I looking for?" Chu Heng was stunned and said with a speechless face: "I'm taking a bath, a serious bath, two people, two towels and two soaps, how much does it cost?"
"Looking at the excited look on your face, I thought you were looking for chickens."
The landlady was not embarrassed at all for misunderstanding. She rolled her eyes at him, then slowly found two keys and two small hand baskets, handed them towels and soap, and then spread her hands: "Three dollars and two. "
Keep the change, please.
Chu Heng was too lazy to talk to her, threw away five dollars, and led Cen Hao with bright eyes into a small door on the left with a male character written in both Chinese and English.
The interior of this bathhouse is very different from Sijiucheng.
When the two of them entered the house, they saw rows of small cabinets for clothing. Further inside was the bathing area. There was also a small door in the middle leading to the rest area. They could get pedicures and cuppings for five cents, and there were no toiletries. stairs to the building.
After the two brothers went in and found their own cabinets, they quickly took off their clothes and entered the bathing area casually.
There were not many people inside at the moment, only about a dozen people. A few people were sitting in the hot water pool, drinking tea and taking a bath. There were also a few people taking a shower, and one of them was lying on each of the two rattan bathing beds. , like a piece of dead pork being turned over and over by the bath master.
When Chu Heng and the others came in, a buddy happened to pass by. After accidentally glancing at him, he was stunned on the spot, looked back for a few times in disbelief, then lowered his head to look at his own, and turned his back silently. Go and run to take a shower.
Chu Heng didn't notice this guy, and didn't have the intention to pay attention to him. He quickly ran to the edge of the hot water pool, stretched out his hand to test the water temperature, then went in to test his feet, and then soaked his body bit by bit.
"Ouch!"
"Ouch!"
"Phew, comfortable!"
After a while, Chu Heng entered the pool completely, leaving only his head outside.
Washed by the warm pool water, he felt a stream of warmth flowing down his pores and into his internal organs, making his whole body relax and he hummed comfortably.
Cen Hao kept watching from the side. Seeing that the guy didn't jump out, he knew that the temperature of the water shouldn't be too hot, so he jumped in like a dumpling.
"thump!"
Immediately, he closed his eyes with a relieved look on his face, quietly enjoying this long-lost feeling.
After soaking in this for a while, Cen Hao suddenly opened his eyes, turned to Chu Heng and asked, "Master Chu, when are we going home?"
When Chu Heng heard this, he glanced at him with narrowed eyes and groaned: "What? Are you homesick?"
"Yeah." Cen Hao nodded.
Chu Heng sat up, hung the towel covering his face around his neck, and turned to look at him: "You are a little bachelor who has eaten enough alone and the whole family is not hungry. What is there to miss home? Outside? How nice it is to have food, drink and a woman, isn’t it better than living in your house where every meal of meat is like New Year’s Eve?”
"No matter how good it is, it's a comfortable home. I don't have many people I can talk to here, and I don't know anyone. It makes me feel uncomfortable all over." Cen Hao curled his lips and said.
"If you feel uncomfortable, please bear with me. Things haven't been finished yet. What's the answer?" Chu Heng rolled his eyelids and dipped himself into the pool again.
"Then when will you go back?"
"If everything goes well, I can go back before the year."
"What if it doesn't go well?"
"I don't know."
The two brothers chatted about each other, and not long after, a middle-aged man with a big bald head, a big body and a round waist walked in with his buttocks bare. He caught an old man who was about to leave and asked: "Uncle Deng, what are you doing?" I heard a donkey came to take a bath? Where is it?"
"Did you see those two guys over there? The most handsome one is that." The old man whispered and pointed at the two Chu Heng brothers who were chatting.
"I'll take a look."
The bald man walked over happily, stepped into the pool, and sat not far from Chu Heng and the others, looking at them with a straight look on his face.
"Hey! Is this bitch still a human?"
He took a breath, feeling inferior and didn't want to look anymore. He moved his eyes to look at Cen Hao, and then he was stunned.
The bald man's eyes were fixed on the tattoo on Cen Hao's arm. He frowned and looked at it carefully for a few times. Then he looked back at the tattoo on his arm. His mind instantly recalled that when he first became a disciple, his master once followed him. Those words he said.
Cen Hao's senses were very alert. After noticing that someone was looking at them, he immediately turned to look at the bald head. When he saw that the other person had a tattoo on his arm that was similar to the tattoo on his arm, he was also stunned.
Soon, the two people's eyes met. After sizing him up a few times, the bald man wiped the water drops on his head, looked at him, stood up slowly, and walked out of the pool.
Cen Hao also stood up and walked out.
"What are you going to do?" Chu Heng heard the movement and opened his eyes curiously to look over.
Cen Hao ignored him, walked out of the pool and went straight to the big bald head, slowly stretched out his hand, squatted down, and made the starting position he usually used when practicing boxing.
The big bald man also took a stance and put his hand on his wrist.
Immediately afterwards, I saw two people doing push hands back and forth as if they were doing Tai Chi.
Chu Heng was dumbfounded and opened his mouth in shock.
This is a bathhouse. The two of them were pushing around with their buttocks naked. It was really eye-catching!
Not only himself, but other people in the bathhouse also looked at the two idiots who were making a fool of themselves in confusion, pointing and talking in low voices.
After a few blows like this, the big bald man's face suddenly became solemn, and he stopped his hand and hugged him: "I am the Hongmen Zhigong Hall, Washington branch, the master of the hall is Lian Guanglong, may I ask who your master is?"
Cen Hao also returned the gift and said with a serious face: "My master is Dou Nanfeng, the twenty-eighth generation descendant of Taiyi Yiyi, the real person of Xuancheng!"
When the bald-headed Lian Guanglong heard this, his face turned red with excitement. He quickly bowed his body, folded his hands and performed a junior salute, and said respectfully: "Lian Guanglong, a 30th generation disciple of Taiyi Daoyi, has met his uncle. !”
"I didn't expect to meet my fellow students here! Master nephew, please get up!" Cen Hao also had a face full of excitement and stepped forward to help him up, just like the ancients in TV series.
But...
Ancient people wore clothes!
These two guys were sticking their butts out, it was so funny no matter how they looked at them.
