Chapter 8 Solving the Mystery Everyone Stays in Kaifeng

Ten minutes later, the door of a small noodle shop was pushed open, and as an old man with white hair walked in from outside, the old man glanced at the room and found that the small noodle shop was full of people. Jiu Ye smacked his lips, looked back at Zhang Mingyu who was following behind him, and asked him with his eyes: "Mingyu, what should I do now?"

Zhang Mingyu looked embarrassed. He didn't expect that the noodle restaurant was quite lively, so he quickly picked up his phone and searched for navigation.

"You have enough people, please please upstairs. The upstairs is big today. It is soundproof. It is convenient for you and your sister to speak." When the few people were in a dilemma, the waiter of the noodle restaurant ran over.

"Good thing, Mingyu doesn't need to be investigated, go upstairs." Master Jiu laughed and followed the waiter upstairs with his hands behind his back.

Zhang Mingyu, who was behind, agreed, put away his cell phone, and took Liu Huquan and others to the second floor.

There were two private rooms on the second floor, one big and one small. The waiter opened the door to the large private room and welcomed several people in.

Master Jiu went in and sat directly at the seat. Zhang Mingyu and the others took the seat one by one. After ordering the dishes, the waiter closed the door and went out, and the room became quiet.

Master Jiu glanced around and finally looked at Zhang Mingyu: "Mingyu, let's keep Kaifeng now. There are some things tonight, you can go with me."

"Okay, it's all for Master Jiu." Zhang Mingyu nodded and did not ask Master Jiu what it was. First, he believed in Master Jiu, and second, he came here to be considered someone else's territory, so guests would follow the host's wishes.

"kindness"

After a while, a few people stayed in a nearby hotel after dinner. After settling down, Liu Huquan sent his subordinates to inquire about the news about Kowloon.

In the blink of an eye, it was night, and the people who went out came back one after another. Liu Huquan asked about the situation, and without exception, they all returned without help. Liu Huquan was so depressed that he went back to the house to sleep without even having a few bites of supper.

Zhang Mingyu was dragged out by Master Jiu before he could go back to the house. When Master Jiu left, he told the people below that they went to the meals they had been to during the day to have some midnight snacks.

In fact, the two of them did go to the noodle restaurant during the day, but didn't ask for noodles, so they ordered a few stir-fry dishes and two bottles of white wine. They ate and drank while eating and drinking without saying a word.

After drinking and eating, Master Jiu raised his wrist to look at his antique watch and knocked on the dial: "It's not yet eleven o'clock, and there is still more than an hour before twelve o'clock. After eating and drinking, why don't you go out for a walk?"

Zhang Mingyu put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a tissue: "Master Jiu, I have been covering me for so long. It's time to tell me where we are going to do what we are going?"

"Shh" Master Jiu put his finger on his lips and made a gesture of silence: "Go out and talk."

After paying the bill, the two went out and stood at the door. Master Jiu took out a pack of cigarettes, took out a cigarette and handed it to Zhang Mingyu: "Boy, can you smoke?"

Zhang Mingyu hesitated for a second, and finally took the cigarette and nodded: "I know a little."

"Lighten the lighter for you." Master Jiu took out a lighter from his pocket and threw it to Zhang Mingyu.

After taking it, Zhang Mingyu looked at the light and looked at the firephone, zippo card, turned his head and looked at the dress of Jiu Ye. He always felt that the old man came from whom he came from.

Jiu Ye lit a good cigarette and took a deep breath: "After defeating the American devils on the Korean battlefield, we seized a lot of good things, including this lighter. I didn't take anything, but I took a lighter and a bucket of oil from this lighter. I have nothing left in my life, but I can't be without cigarettes."

"So that's how it is." Zhang Mingyu lit a cigarette, took a sip, and then started coughing violently.

Master Jiu looked at Zhang Mingyu and shook his head: "If you can't, don't suck it, otherwise you will be the same as me. Let's go to Lao Lu's house. It's such a cold day, I don't want to freeze here, and I will freeze my old bones and get sick."

"Old Lu family, is the old friend's house you mentioned during the day?" Zhang Mingyu asked while adapting to the stimulation of smoke to his throat.

Master Jiu sighed: "Yes, the brothers who were in the same class who were in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea may be the only ones left in Lao Shen."

"Time is ruthless." Zhang Mingyu felt that her throat was not so uncomfortable. It seemed that she had gradually gotten used to the stimulation of smoke.

"Just get used to it. In fact, this is the same as smoking. At the beginning, you may feel a little uncomfortable and will feel uncomfortable. But after a long time, you will slowly accept it. Because objective facts cannot be changed. No one will be with you forever, and in the end you are the only one left." Jiu Ye took out another cigarette from the cigarette box and handed it to Zhang Mingyu: "You will get used to it if you smoke two more. Don't blame me if you become addicted in the future."

"It's not your fault." Zhang Mingyu took the cigarette and put it on his ear. He planned to smoke it later.

"You guy is pretty good at talking. Go knock on the door, we're already here." Jiu Ye stood in the middle of the road, turned his head to look at the two-story building beside him.

"Yeah." Zhang Mingyu walked to the door and knocked on the door three times. There are rules for knocking on the door here. First, knock on the door and tell everyone inside that someone is coming, and then knock a few times to make sure that someone is coming. It is like the kind of person who smashes the door with a slam, only those who die at home will knock like this.

After three sounds of the door, the big wooden door opened with a click, revealing a crack, and Lu Jiuyou's voice came from it: "Hello, who are you looking for?"

"Oh, is this the home of Senior Lu?"

"Yes, right, who are you here?" Lu Jiuyou nodded. He only opened a crack, so naturally he couldn't see Jiuye standing in the middle of the road.

"No wonder you don't know me. I will introduce myself here first. My name is Zhang Mingyu, who is the entourage of Master Jiu. This morning, we came here with Master Jiu. Of course, only Master Jiu showed up alone. After all, there is no need to mobilize old friends. Tonight, I came here with Master Jiu to do business, Master Jiu stood not far behind me." After saying that, Zhang Mingyu turned sideways, Master Jiu appeared and greeted Lu Jiuyou.

"Then you come in quickly." Lu Jiuyou opened the door and welcomed the two into the room.

After entering the room and sitting down, Lu Jiuyou poured two cups of tea for Master Jiu and Zhang Mingyu. Master Jiu lifted his nose and smelled the fragrance of the tea, and smiled: "Xiao Jiu, it's okay to be able to stand up so late. If you have something to do, go and rest first. We will leave after we finish our work."

Lu Jiuyou smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, Grandpa Jiu, it happened that I was guarding today, so I was the only one in the family."

"That's fine. We thought we might meet your relatives at this point, and we were worried about how to explain it to them. After all, few of them had seen me, and most of them had heard of it. And there was a saying in the middle of the night that night was good, the night owl would come in the house without any trouble."

"Haha, Master Jiu, you're just joking. You are my grandfather's comrade-in-arms. How can you say that the night owl comes to the house without any trouble?" Lu Jiuyou smiled and sat next to Master Jiu.

"Hey, don't say that. I'm really here to do business today." Jiu Ye laughed, picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all, then leaned on the sofa and smacked his lips: "Don't say, I've been drinking tea for so many years, but I still like this big red robe."

"Hey, Master Jiu, how did you know that this is from Dahongpao?" Zhang Mingyu also took a sip. He held the tea in his mouth for a long time, but it didn't smell so he simply drank it as white water.

"Tea is made by drinking, and even more delicious. When you go out with the skills of tea, you will naturally know the difference between tea. There are many things, and you still have some learnings."

It was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night when the three of them chatted. Lu Jiuyou was about to remind the two of them that the time was up, but suddenly the music started from somewhere: "The vast world is my love, and flowers are blooming at the foot of the endless green mountains..."

The music was loud, and Zhang Mingyu, who was a little sleepy, suddenly became energetic. Master Jiu smiled and took out a ninety-nine-yuan elderly machine from his pocket. He pressed the music twice and stopped. For a moment, the room was extremely quiet, and both of them stared at Master Jiu.

Master Jiu naturally noticed the eyes of the two, put away his cell phone, looked at them: "What's wrong, old man, I'm prone to forgetting the time, and I won't let you go?"

"It's okay, since the time has come, then Master Jiu, let's go and see my grandfather's body." Lu Jiuyou waved his hand and said.

"Okay, go and ask Lao Lu what else he had done before he died, don't explain it." Master Jiu stood up, stretched his body, and under Lu Jiuyou's leadership, he took a big step towards the backyard.
