Chapter 61 I want to run before I know how to walk.
"Seed, what seed?"
"I overheard it, so I can't ask any more questions," Li Xinzhu said.
Wang An just listened to it as an anecdote and didn't take it seriously.
After eating and resting for a while, the two of them continued to watch the paintings. Then the two of them practiced in the yard, and Wang An began to practice walking on the vat.
I jumped lightly to reach the edge of the tank, and then walked along the edge of the tank in small steps. The tank was filled with less than half a tank of water.
Moving the cylinder is more difficult than moving the bricks, because the edge of the brick is flat, but the edge of the cylinder is an arc.
The tank is first filled with water and pressed, and then the water in the tank is slowly reduced little by little. When the empty tank is no longer a problem, oil is applied to the edge of the tank appropriately, and then the tank continues.
Wang An started practicing from the very beginning, walking slowly but steadily on the vat. Just like when he first practiced walking bricks, Li Xinzhu walked bricks in the open space beside him, stopping from time to time to pick up bricks.
After practicing kung fu for a while, Wang An's cell phone rang in the room, and Wang An went into the room to answer the call.
The person who called was Wang An's college classmate, who lived in the same dormitory. They got along quite well when they were in school. After graduation, he did not stay in Hu'an, but returned to his hometown and entered the public sector.
Judging from the messages I send in my circle of friends on weekdays, I seem to be doing pretty well.
"Wang An, how are you doing recently? Are you still in Hu'an City?"
"Still the same as before, still in Hu'an."
"What a coincidence, I will go to Hu'an in two days. Let's get together then?"
"Okay." Wang An said with a smile. In a dormitory, there is still friendship.
In the yard, Li Xinzhu looked at the water tank in front of him, thinking about the way Wang An removed the tank just now.
"This doesn't seem to be very difficult. How about I give it a try?" He said to himself, then imitated Wang An's example, jumped lightly, and stepped on the edge of the tank.
Unexpectedly, he stepped on one foot, lost control of his body, and fell headlong into the tank.
"Hey, hold the grass!"
There was a pop and water splashed.
Wang An hung up the phone and came out of the house, just in time to see Li Xinzhu crawling out of the water tank with a wet body.
"What are you doing?"
"I, I want to try walking in a tank." Li Xinzhu's smile was a little awkward.
This thing was different from what he thought. Seeing that Wang An was walking well, he couldn't move even one step up.
"It's a good idea, but you want to run if you can't walk?" Wang An smiled.
"I, I have to change clothes." Li Xinzhu changed clothes and hid next to the electric heater to warm up for a while.
After observing the painting for a while, Wang An washed his hands and rested.
That night, Li Xinzhu woke up three times, but Wang An saw a smile on his face.
"I think there is hope for my ill health."
This was the first time Li Xinzhu truly felt hope since seeing that painting.
Last night, he saw the evil ghost again in his dream, but this was the first time that he felt no longer so scared, and the angry-eyed King Kong seemed to turn his head to look at the evil ghost.
"Whatever you want to eat for lunch, just order it and I'll treat you!"
"King crab, you've always wanted to eat it, right?"
"Ah, king crab? With your appetite, you can't eat me bankrupt. How about we go to the king crab burger you invited me to eat last time? To be honest, I think the burger tastes pretty good, and it's a big enough meal.
"
"I'm just teasing you, go ahead and do what you have to do."
During the day, Wang An went to Zhao Zhiyuan's medical clinic as usual to learn Chinese massage.
Another day later, he received a text message stating that there was an extra 100,000 yuan in his bank account. He immediately realized that the reward from the Guard Bureau had been received.
It's just that this amount is much higher than what they had agreed upon before. He and Li Xinzhu had originally agreed that apart from the 50,000 yuan given to the one who provided the information, the two of them would share the remaining bounty equally.
That night, he made an appointment to meet Li Xinzhu. This time it was really at a famous restaurant specializing in king crab, which cost upwards of fifteen hundred yuan per person.
"If you really eat here, you won't be full with your appetite," Li Xinzhu said.
"Just try it and see if the king crab you mentioned is so delicious." Wang An said with a smile.
He was dressed very casually, even a little plainly, which was a bit out of place for this high-end restaurant.
After a while, the dishes they ordered were brought out, starting with the appetizers before the meal, which were very delicately cooked, sweet and sour, and very refreshing, but they were too small, so Wang An basically only had one bite.
The main course was soon served, and Jiu had king crab.
Steam, boil, bake, fry...
The waiter was serving the dishes and explaining them at the same time.
"Well, it's delicious, delicious, fresh, fragrant, and sweet. Apart from being expensive, there's nothing wrong with it!" Li Xinzhu ate happily.
Wang An didn't eat quickly. To be honest, it was his first time to eat king crab. It tasted quite good, but it looked more fancy. Of course, it was definitely not as filling as beef or mutton.
"You gave me too much of my share."
"Hey, I almost went crazy. You saved me, and I have nothing to repay you. If I hadn't been short of money recently, all the money would have been given to you." Li Xinzhu waved his hand and said very boldly.
"After dinner, Hong Romantic, I'll treat you! I heard there's a new top star there, can you meet him?"
"It looks like you are feeling much better." Wang An said with a smile, "Just go and be cool on your own, and be careful with your waist."
"I have a strong back, so there is no problem." Li Xinzhu said with a smile, "But you are too boring. Don't you feel bored and tired after practicing all day?"
"I think it's pretty good. Why don't you watch the pictures tonight?"
"Relax, I'm tired of looking at it all the time."
"It's best to persevere. If you travel a hundred miles, you'll get half a mile, but don't fall short. What if when you are about to communicate with a certain beauty, that fierce ghost or King Kong suddenly appears in your mind?"
"Holy shit!" After Li Xinzhu was stunned for a while, he subconsciously thought of that scene and shuddered involuntarily.
"Would it be impossible for me to do that? Men can't do it. This is more important than a mental illness!"
"Have a meal."
Li Xinzhu looked at the king crab in front of him and suddenly felt that the food was not so fragrant.
On their way back from dinner, Li Xinzhu received a call.
"My master has something urgent to do with me. You should go back first and wait for me." After getting off the bus, Li Xinzhu hurriedly took a taxi and left.
Wang An returned to his residence, exercised by himself for a while, looked at paintings for a while, and then went to bed.
Early the next morning, when I was preparing to go to Zhao Zhiyuan's traditional Chinese medicine clinic, I didn't expect Li Xinzhu to come.
"Don't leave in a hurry, I want to tell you something important."
"What's going on? It's so mysterious."
"The man who knows how to intercept the pulse has come to Hu'an City."
"Here you are, did you go to see him yesterday?" Wang An was stunned when he heard the news.
