Chen Dong's living expenses are only 100 yuan a week, which is a bit low for a high school student. He can only guarantee basic living expenses.
There is no way, he has a very incompetent alcoholic father, and he doesn't even want to ask for more money.
A few days after school started, I spent almost half of it. I just collected a hundred yuan with Lu Yuange's fifty and gave it to the crazy old man. He hoped that the crazy old man could teach me some tricks so that he wouldn't have to be bullied by Dali again. As a result, the crazy old man
Just leave like that?
This is not possible!
Chen Dong immediately rushed to the window and looked down. He thought that an expert like the crazy old man was probably gone, but when he looked, he saw the crazy old man crawling down the sewer pipe.
"You...what are you doing?" Chen Dong was very surprised.
"No matter how big or small, call me Master!" the crazy old man raised his head and said.
"Master...what are you doing?"
"Nonsense, can't you see, I'm going downstairs!"
"Do you still need to do this?" Chen Dong said with a disappointed look on his face: "I thought you could fly down..."
"Damn, I'm not a bird!"
Seeing that the crazy old man was almost on the ground, Chen Dong quickly said: "Master, when will you teach me martial arts? Someone will give me trouble tomorrow!"
"Don't worry, I will come to you tomorrow. How can my sloppy Taoist apprentice be allowed to be bullied by others... Oops!"
The moment the crazy old man landed, he seemed to lose his balance and fell onto his back.
However, the crazy old man quickly stood up.
"Wait for me!"
The crazy old man turned around and ran away, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
Chen Dong, who was standing by the window, felt vaguely uneasy.
...Isn’t it possible that you were deceived?
Chen Dong rummaged through his pockets and found that he only had the last dozen yuan left. Even if he ate steamed buns every meal, he wouldn't be able to last for a few days.
It was only then that Chen Dong came to his senses. He felt that he had been too impulsive just now and gave the crazy old man a hundred yuan. If he didn't come tomorrow, not only would he be beaten, but he would also lose his money.
It's like "losing your wife and losing your troops".
But there is no way, the crazy old man is gone, I can only hope that he is not a liar.
The next morning, Chen Dong did not go with the people in the dormitory, but went to the cafeteria alone.
Along the way, he carefully observed his surroundings to see if the crazy old man was looking for him. He casually taught him a few tricks so that he could cope with today's troubles.
Unfortunately, no trace of the crazy old man was found until after the meal.
Breakfast is just two steamed buns and a plate of pickles. In this case, I can only live frugally.
Before the first class in the morning, Song Qiao came to see Chen Dong again.
Lu Yuange went out with Chen Dong.
Song Qiao asked Lu Yuange: "Have you told me everything?"
Lu Yuange nodded and signaled Chen Dong to give Song Qiao money.
Chen Dong bit his lip and said, "The money is all in the dormitory, I forgot to take it..."
Song Qiao's eyes flashed with displeasure, but he didn't show any anger in front of Lu Yuange. Instead, he said: "Brother Dali will need it at noon. You can go back and get it in the morning." After a pause, he added: "At noon.
Give it to me before school, otherwise I won't be polite."
After Song Qiao left, Lu Yuange took Chen Dong back to the classroom and asked him what happened?
It was impossible for Chen Dong to tell the truth to Lu Yuange: "It's okay, I just forgot to take it."
"Well, let's go back and get it after the second class."
After the second class, I have to do radio gymnastics. I have plenty of time, so I can go back to the dormitory.
Chen Dong said softly "Hmm".
During class, Chen Dong had been absent-minded and kept looking out the window, hoping that the crazy old man would come to him.
After the first class, Chen Dong went outside and walked around again, but there was still no trace of the crazy old man.
After the second class, everyone went to the playground to do radio gymnastics, but Chen Dong was walking around the campus. The crazy old man he met three times yesterday seemed to have disappeared from the world today.
Of course, Chen Dong became increasingly anxious.
If the crazy old man doesn't show up before noon, then he will definitely be beaten by Song Qiao. If it is just a one-on-one challenge, he will definitely have to fight Song Qiao, but Song Qiao will definitely bring a few people, so what can he do?
What about the opponent?
Chen Dong was thinking about what to do when the loudspeaker in the school suddenly sounded.
After the daily broadcast gymnastics, the principal or dean will lecture, announce some things or punish students who violate disciplines, and today is no exception.
"Hey, hello!" the principal's slightly dialectal voice spread through the loudspeaker to every corner of the school: "Let me tell you something, a crazy old man appeared near our No. 3 Middle School recently, and he went around telling people that he was a martial arts master.
They want to recruit people as apprentices, and the apprenticeship fee is 100 yuan, and seven or eight students have already been fooled..."
Chen Dong was near the school's public toilet, still some distance from the playground, but he still clearly heard a loud laugh coming from him.
There are at least several thousand students in No. 3 Middle School, laughing together is really scary.
"Why are you laughing, what are you laughing at!" the principal said angrily: "Don't think that you won't encounter this kind of thing. There are many vicious and bad people out there who specialize in deceiving students like you. You must be more thoughtful! Also!
Security, you must not let random people in again..."
After that, Chen Dong couldn't hear it anymore.
Chen Dong felt like his head was buzzing.
The crazy old man is indeed a liar. He made up all the stories about his amazing bones and martial arts prodigies. At least seven or eight students were deceived by him!
Chen Dong was really angry now, and he was even more eager to find the crazy old man, but it was no longer to learn skills, but to get his money back. Unfortunately, after turning around again, there was still no trace of the crazy old man.
Chen Dong screamed in his heart, this time he really lost his wife and lost his troops, and even put Lu Yuange's fifty yuan into it.
When Chen Dong returned to the classroom, his classmates also came back, and they were still discussing enthusiastically what the principal said just now.
"What a martial arts master, how is that possible..."
"Isn't it? There are really all kinds of weird things, and your head is full of shit. You can believe this kind of thing..."
"I think I've seen that crazy old man. He's dressed in a sloppy way. He looks like a lunatic no matter how you look at it. Someone actually got fooled..."
Chen Dong would definitely not participate in this kind of topic, let alone admit that he was also a victim. He could only sit down dejectedly, thinking, crazy old man, crazy old man, you really killed me!
The 100 yuan was cheated by a crazy old man. What should I do if Song Qiao comes to visit me again?
"What are you doing? Do you know that you have crossed the line?" At this moment, Wang Ying's cold voice suddenly sounded next to her.
Chen Dong turned around and saw that his elbow had accidentally landed on Wang Ying's table.
Of course, not too much, just a little closer.
As for my deskmate, this kind of thing is inevitable.
"I'm sorry..." Chen Dong said with a blushing face and quickly retracted his arm.
Wang Ying snorted and didn't say anything else. Instead, she took out a tissue from her schoolbag and carefully wiped the area where Chen Dong had just rubbed. She even poured some mineral water on the table.
Faced with such an insulting move, Chen Dong was really annoyed and couldn't help but said loudly: "Wang Ying, what do you mean?"
The class fell silent instantly, and all the students looked over.
"You know what I mean."
Wang Ying said coldly, her hands kept moving and she was still wiping the table.
"I have only been at the same table for a few days, and you look at me lustfully every day. Yesterday, you finally showed your fox tail and wrote such disgusting things to me. Don't you think you are very vulgar? Yesterday, I asked Brother Dali to teach you a lesson.
I didn’t expect you to still have such a short memory and deliberately lean on my desk. I’m warning you, this is the last time. If there is another time, I will ask the head teacher to change your seat!"
Chen Dong almost felt dizzy when he heard it.
He never expected that in Wang Ying's heart he was such a person.
What he thought was affectionate seemed to Wang Ying to be lustful.
The love letter he wrote with great care seemed disgusting and obscene to Wang Ying.
The elbow he accidentally leaned over seemed to Wang Ying to be intentional.
No wonder Wang Ying wants to find Brother Dali to deal with him.
But, why is this?
He is not ugly. Although his clothes are not fashionable, they are clean and tidy, and he is also very hygienic. He washes his face in the morning, noon and evening. Why does Wang Ying hate him so much?
That's not even the point.
The point is that the class went "boom" into chaos.
"It turns out that Chen Dong wrote a love letter to Wang Ying. It's only been a few days. I'm so impatient..."
"No wonder Song Qiao came to see him yesterday. It turned out to be Brother Dali's arrangement..."
"Isn't this a toad that wants to eat swan meat..."
There are all kinds of voices in the class, including those who are mocking, those who are laughing, those who are watching, those who are gloating about others' misfortunes...
Chen Dong's face was extremely hot and he wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
It just makes things worse.
Song Qiao's voice came from the door again: "Chen Dong, have you got the money?"
Chen Dong remained motionless, as if his whole body was frozen.
It was Lu Yuange who helped him out. Lu Yuange went out and said to Song Qiao: "School is over. When school is over..."
The school bell rang.
Song Qiao left.
The class also became quiet.
But Chen Dong still stood up unexpectedly and walked out as if he was sleepwalking.
"Chen Dong, where are you going? The teacher will be here soon!" Lu Yuange asked.
But Chen Dong turned a deaf ear and walked out anyway.
Toilet.
Chen Dong turned on the faucet as high as possible, stretched his head over, and cold water trickled down.
Calm down, must be calm.
The crazy old man couldn't count on him at all. Lu Yuange couldn't help him much. He was defrauded of the only one hundred yuan he had, and he caused such a big embarrassment in the class. Song Qiao was still waiting to meet him after school.
Want money...
Trouble comes one after another.
but.
There must be a way, there must be!
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Dong slowly raised his head and looked at his face in the mirror, which was covered with cold water. His eyes gradually became cruel and cold.
Suddenly, he punched it so hard that the entire mirror shattered, and blood instantly stained his entire fist red...
