Starting tomorrow, New Year's Day, I will try my best to update three times. I have saved a few manuscripts recently.
----------------
Xu Bing can understand Tang Yanxue's mood at this time.
This old house can be regarded as the pride of the Tang family, witnessing the glory of two generations of the Tang family. Unfortunately, too many beautiful memories of Tang Yanxue's childhood are buried here.
Visiting her hometown again will naturally remind her of many things.
If it weren't for the CD, Tang Yanxue would never have easily set foot in the old house, but when she actually came to the old house, her mood was particularly complicated.
It seems that those memories that have been blurred are instantly outlined clearly.
Tang Yanxue said to herself: "When I was a child, I remember that every year when it snowed heavily, my grandfather would take me to build a snowman at the door. At that time, there were many children in the neighbor's house. We would have snowball fights together, and my father would also participate, but my mother would always stay at the door and watch.
Make us smile happily."
"My grandfather was already in very bad health at that time, but every year when it snowed, he would still play with me in the snow. I was particularly dependent on my grandfather at that time. I would always cry and fuss about riding on his neck, and then have sex with him.
I went to the military camp to play with guns. I remember that my favorite thing at that time was watching my grandpa shoot. He was very powerful. Later I found out that every time my grandpa finished shooting, his arm would not be straight for a few days because of the recoil...
"
"I remember that every year when it snowed, my grandfather would stand at the door and look at the sky, and then say that auspicious snow heralds a good harvest. I asked him what auspicious snow meant a good harvest, and he always said that I would understand when I grow up..."
"I still remember the day my grandpa passed away. I cried so hard that many doctors and soldiers came. They sent my grandpa to the hospital. I was locked outside the operating room. I cried and clamored to accompany him. Dad
He picked me up and looked in through the glass door. I wanted to find grandpa, but I couldn't see anything. There was a layer of curtain inside, which completely separated me and grandpa into two worlds..."
Xu Bingyan said that he just listened silently to Tang Yanxue telling these past events. He did not expect that the relationship between Tang Yanxue and his grandfather would be so close.
Slowly, Tang Yanxue stopped talking, but her eyes were filled with tears.
The row of courtyards in the distance is exceptionally quiet. There are not many people living here at this time, or in other words, no one lives here at all.
Quiet, eerily quiet all around.
Tang Yanxue slowly walked towards the old house, Xu Bing followed closely behind.
In front of the big iron gate of the old house, Tang Yanxue stopped for a long time. Xu Bing stood next to Tang Yanxue, feeling a little excited. As if in a trance, he could see an old man playing in the snow with a little girl.
figure.
Suddenly, Xu Bing's mind tightened and his brows furrowed slightly. The surroundings were still quiet, but he felt instinctively uneasy.
I looked around and saw that, apart from the occasional vehicle speeding past on the street in the distance, there was not a single person around 300 meters away.
But Xu Bing believed in his hunch, which had saved his life several times.
There is something weird.
Xu Bing said to himself.
He seemed to be able to feel a potential danger slowly approaching, as if there were several pairs of eyes watching him not far away.
But what could Xu Bing endure?
No matter how sensitive his senses are, they can't help him find the source of danger. This is purely an instinctive feeling, which is mysterious and indescribable.
Tang Yanxue took out a key from her bag and opened the iron door. With a creak, the door was opened, and the scenery in the yard fell into Xu Bing's eyes.
This is a patio. There is a big locust tree in the yard, and there is an old-fashioned well next to the tree. There is a stone table next to the well, and four stone benches next to it. There are red lines drawn on the stone table, which are chessboards.
Tang Yanxue walked slowly into the patio and looked around for a long time, as if she was completely lost in memories.
Xu Bing closed the door and stayed beside Tang Yanxue silently.
Tang Yanxue finally came to her senses, pointed to the stone table and said to Xu Bing: "When I was a child, my grandfather would often come to visit. Every time a guest came, my grandfather would play a few games with the guests here. Grandpa's chess skills
It actually stinks, but I am very addicted to chess."
There are six wing rooms on the east, west and north sides, all of which are tightly closed at this time.
Tang Yanxue took Xu Bing directly to the north wing. This is the main hall and the living room. It is full of mahogany furniture and is spotless. There is an old-fashioned oil painting hanging on the wall. It depicts a scene of farmers' harvest.
It's very old, and the painting work is only average.
Xu Bing was a little surprised and said: "Why is this place so clean? Did someone come to clean it?"
"I don't know either." Tang Yanxue was also a little surprised: "It stands to reason that no one has lived here for a long time, so it shouldn't be so clean."
The two stared at each other.
At this moment, there was a creaking sound from the courtyard door.
Xu Bing immediately pulled Tang Yanxue and hid behind the door. Through the door, Xu Bing could clearly see the situation at the gate.
At this time, a man in his fifties walked in. The man was tall and tall, not short, and did not look old at all.
The man closed the door with some vigilance, then stared at the north wing, and forced his way over step by step.
"Do you know her?" Xu Bing said nothing, he just gave Tang Yanxue a questioning look.
Tang Yanxue hesitated for a moment and shook her head.
Xu Bingyi was a brave man, but he was not afraid. He jumped directly to the door and shouted to the man: "Stop!"
The man frowned, stared at Xu Bing closely, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Why are you here?"
"Don't worry about who I am." Xu Bing also said solemnly: "Tell me who you are first."
"Huh, I'm the owner of this place." The man sneered: "I don't know what you are looking for, but you come here again and again. Where do you think this is? A vegetable market? How about I give you some today?
Look, it seems like it’s not going to work anymore, let your companions come out!”
The man's momentum immediately changed, his body tensed, ready to attack Xu Bing at any time.
Xu Bing was shocked. He could see that this man was actually a master. There were not many opponents who could make him instinctively feel dangerous, but the man in front of him made him feel dangerous.
"What a joke, you said you are the owner here?" Xu Bing sneered again and again: "I am friends with the owner here, why don't I know you? Moreover, she doesn't even know who you are, how dare you claim to be the owner here?
, if you don’t make it clear today, don’t blame me for being cruel to you!”
"It's just you?" The man laughed and said, "Let your companion come with you!"
Xu Bing snorted coldly and rushed towards the man. He raised his fist and smashed at the man crazily.
Since the other party is unwilling to speak clearly, Xu Bing doesn't mind using force to speak and beat the other party to the ground, so he will naturally speak up. He is very experienced in this.
The man counterattacked towards Xu Bing without giving in. The two men fought hand to hand, both taking a fierce approach, punching and kicking, bang bang bang bang, and a series of strong attacks.
A few seconds passed and the two of them had changed their moves several times. When they separated again, Xu Bing frowned.
The man also had a solemn expression, his chest rose and fell rapidly, and he said in a deep voice: "Sure enough, the attack was ruthless enough."
Although Xu Bing did not try his best, he was somewhat impressed by the man's kung fu. He sneered and said: "The ruthlessness is yet to come. If you are sensible, just tell me honestly what you do. Otherwise, you will never leave alive today."
here."
"It's true that a thief calls for catching a thief. My old man's life is here. If you have the ability, come and take it. If Wang Tiezhu frowns, then he is not a man!" the man replied boldly.
There was a hint of admiration in Xu Bing's eyes, and he nodded: "You do have some backbone, but I don't know if your bones are really as hard as you say!"
"You'll know after you try it." The man gritted his teeth.
In fact, although he only exchanged more than ten moves with Xu Bing, the man had already realized that he could not defeat Xu Bing, but this old house meant a lot to him, and he would never retreat even if he died.
Xu Bing snorted coldly and was about to pounce, but Tang Yanxue suddenly stepped out from the door and shouted: "Don't fight!"
"Xiaoxue?!" The man looked at Tang Yanxue with a puzzled look and shouted excitedly.
Tang Yanxue's face was equally excited. She stared at the man carefully and asked with some doubts and vigilance: "What did you say your name was? Wang Tiezhu?"
The man nodded and said happily: "Xiaoxue, don't you recognize me? I'm your Uncle Wang. When you came to the military camp when you were a child, I took you for a drive, do you remember?"
Xu Bing was confused and cautiously approached Tang Yanxue. The latter approached the man step by step, while Xu Bing was fully on guard.
The man is a master, if he takes action against Tang Yanxue at this time, it will be really dangerous!
"Are you really Uncle Wang?" A smile gradually appeared on Tang Yanxue's face, and there were some tears in her eyes.
Those were tears of excitement, and the vigilant look on her face was slowly fading away.
The man was also a little excited, his old eyes were a little red, and he said in a trembling voice: "Yes, do you still remember that one time you came to the military camp and insisted on letting me take you to ride a horse, but there were no horses in our military camp, so in the end you still rode on
I carried you around on my shoulder for a while, but you don’t even remember it?”
Tang Yanxue suddenly threw herself into the man's arms with excitement and cried: "I remember, I remember, you are Uncle Wang, you are Uncle Wang."
Wang Tiezhu hugged Tang Yanxue and burst into tears. The two hugged each other and cried, which made Xu Bing feel a little embarrassed.
After a while, Tang Yanxue stopped crying, broke away from Wang Tiezhu's arms, took Xu Bing's hand and introduced: "This is my boyfriend Xu Bing, this is my grandfather back then.
His old subordinate was also the commander of the army's reconnaissance company. He had a great relationship with my grandfather and was the most loyal to him. But later, after my grandfather passed away, I never saw him again."
Xu Bing smiled and called Uncle Wang.
Wang Tiezhu didn't mind that he suffered a secret loss in the fight with Xu Bing just now. He patted Xu Bing's shoulder with some satisfaction and praised: "Xiao Xu, you are really good at this skill. This kung fu makes me sit up and take notice. To be honest,
, I am not your opponent!"
"Uncle Wang is too humble. You gave in to me just now." Xu Bing said politely.
"Uncle Wang, why are you here? Where have you been all these years?" Tang Yanxue asked urgently.
Wang Tiezhu sighed and said, "Let's sit down in the room and talk slowly."
