Chapter 10 Ninja
The night in Xishan Ancient Town is extremely quiet. Lying in **, the yellow finch always feels that he can't sleep. For nothing else, he feels very uncomfortable. Seeing that the little loser Liu Jinyin and the firewood roots next to him are sleeping well, he slowly stood up, opened the door, and went to the only toilet on the second floor.
For Xishan Hotel, which is comparable to the third-level hotel in Qingcheng City, it is impossible to have a separate bathroom. Even on the second floor, there is only one place that is convenient, and it can only be defined as a toilet, which is mixed for men and women.
In this remote town, especially in which there are 15 watts of incandescent light bulbs hanging on the 'street' in the middle of the night, it's convenient to come out at night, but it's really a little flustered.
After peeing and lifting his trousers, the yellow finch was relieved for a while. He was about to take out a cigarette and light a good one to enjoy it on this wooden board building. But just as he took out the lighter and was about to light it, a sudden burst of figures flashed on the street, and four people in tight clothes in black jumped off the roof. Next, he quietly disappeared into the darkness.
The strange body and strange walking posture made the yellow finch stunned, and the lighter in his hand was about to fall to the ground. Suddenly, a figure flashed beside the yellow finch. A person quickly approached, caught the lighter, and motioned the yellow finch to lower his head quickly.
At a glance, this person turned out to be Liu Jinyin.
This old boy can't see that his movements are still very vigorous. At least the yellow finch has never seen such a fierce movement like him before.
"Uncle Silver..."
The yellow finch shouted softly.
Liu Jinyin shook his head and looked closely downstairs.
This Xishan Hotel is a standard two-story wooden structure. The first floor is a restaurant and the second floor is a guest room. The door of the guest room is a wooden balcony. You can directly see everything on the long street of Xishan Ancient Town. It is a good place to watch the scenery.
The two people squatted on the wooden balcony without saying a word. They looked at it like this. After a while, the figures of the four people in black appeared again in the dark. Their right hand was bent forward, their left hand was behind, and their bodies leaned forward. They took small steps and ran forward quickly, still so quietly.
After the four people walked over, three more people appeared in the dark. Far away, the light was not very bright, but one of them was particularly conspicuous, because she herself was a delicate body, convex and warped, and the reflection of the light made it more graceful.
This person turned out to be the woman I met during the day.
The three of them walked quickly and soon flashed into a wooden house next to them.
The yellow finch looked puzzled. Those people just now were really too weird. They jumped from the roof and walked on this rotten gravel road without making a sound.
When everything was quiet, the yellow finch was slowly pulled into the room by Liu Jinyin.
"Uncle Yin!"
The yellow finch banged in his heart and looked at Liu Jinyin in the dark.
After a while, Liu Jinyin said slowly and softly, "Sparrow boy, do you feel very familiar with the four people in black, the clothes, and the strange walking posture?"
The yellow finch nodded, "It's very familiar. It's like I've seen it somewhere, and it doesn't seem to have seen it."
"In the movie, on TV!" Liu Jinyin seems to want to remind the yellow finch.
The yellow finch thought about it for a while and suddenly said in surprise, "Ninja?"
"Yes, it should be a Japanese ninja!" Liu Jinyin muttered, "But this is Xishan, the land of China. It is very unusual for one or two Japanese to appear. How can there be ninjas?"
It's not only Liu Jinyin who has such an idea in his heart, but also the yellow finch. The four strange and very strange figures are really strange.
"Uncle Yin, if those four people are really Japanese ninjas, what do you think they are doing here in Xishan?"
Liu Jinyin hummed and said, "No matter who comes to Xishan, it may only have something to do with one thing, that is, wealth and treasure. It seems that this group of Japanese have also come for this."
"Is Xishan really going to be a big deal?" After Liu Jinyin finished speaking, he couldn't help muttering that he had this idea when he saw so many people gathering when he was eating below during the day. After all, those things under the western mountains are really too ** people, but now, he has seen the appearance of Japanese ninjas, no matter what? Whether he could be sure or not, he felt that this matter was very unusual.
"Uncle Silver, what should we do if this is really Japanese?" Huang Que thought coldly that he was now a descendant of eight families, and thought of the so-called responsibility. If Li Liancheng was here, he would definitely find out. If he wanted to make sure that he was really Japanese, he would not let them go, but Liu Jinyin, he was just a half-old man who knew antiques, but Again, after all, Liu Jinyin is an old man. Compared with a rookie like the yellow finch, he is much better.
Liu Jinyin looked at the yellow finch in the dark, suddenly smiled and said, "What can I do? If they don't mess with us, will we still provoke them? Don't forget our purpose this time. Follow the firewood roots to the willow ditch and receive some treasures cheaply. We won't waste this trip this time. Okay, okay, let's go to bed!"
Huang Que was disappointed for a while. Although he didn't have much hope for Liu Jinyin, Liu Jinyin said such a "boneless" words, which made him suddenly feel empty in his heart. He even missed the few days when he was with Li Liancheng. Every word Li Liancheng said was able to It makes people's blood boil. Besides, at least he is the owner of the broken throat now. In the past, the dagger had to drink blood when he saw the Japanese, but now he lies obediently in the burden. Isn't it a little coward?
There is nothing you can do if you are unwilling. Do you go to spy alone? This boy really doesn't have the courage. Seeing that Liu Jinyin has got into the quilt, he can only do so.
The yellow finch fell asleep in a daze near dawn. At 6:30 in the morning, it was woken up by Liu Jinyin.
The firewood grass root said that there is still a long way to go to the willow ditch, so we have to hurry up.
Everyone packed up their things and settled the bill with the owner of the Xishan Hotel. At this time, the Xishan Hotel was deserted. I don't know if the people who ate yesterday didn't get up, or went into the mountain early.
As the boss, Lao Xi got up very early. It was still the dress of yesterday. Seeing that everyone was about to leave, he greeted them with a smile, and sent a bottle of good carved wine and said, "Come back with a full load!"
It seems that what Liu Jinyin said is absolutely right. This Lao Xi really regarded his four as tomb robbers who went into the hinterland of Xishan to explore the treasure.
And this act of sending flowers and carved wine is undoubtedly showing goodwill to everyone. For so many years, I don't know how much loss this old guy has done and how much black money he has earned.
The tomb robber is an employee of the factory. He always works part-time, and a guy like Lao Xi is like a behind-the-scenes boss. He opens this store in the small town of Xishan. When he meets a lot of people, he works as an intermediary or directly collects good things. If he meets a single person, I'm sorry, he is the emperor of this land. .
The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and this Xishan is really the case.
No matter how the old guy Lao Xi laughs and how he waves his hand to make everyone have a safe journey, the yellow finch always feels that he is hiding a knife in his smile. He is afraid that this time, it is better to let the four people die with only one left, and then the only one, with half his life and a lot of good things back to his Xishan Hotel. He happened to be the murderer on the moonlit night.
The firewood grass root took everyone to find a ox cart. The owner of the ox cart is Gao Dashan, and he is also an authentic mountain man. He is in his forties. He took his 17- or 18-year-old son. He was not very unhappy to go to Liupigou. After all, he still didn't arrive at 7 a.m. in the afternoon, and then he will stay in Liupigou for one night. If the money is suitable, he is willing to go.
Chai Caogen discussed with this person for most of the day, said something that everyone couldn't understand, and then came to Liu Jinyin and said, "He said he had to pay 500 yuan to go."
500 yuan? In the eyes of the firewood root, this is undoubtedly a rip-off price, but after listening to it, Liu Jinyin agreed without saying a word.
Everyone set out from the ancient town of Xishan, sat on the ox cart, went all the way west, and slowly headed for the willow ditch. This feeling, in addition to the tall mountain, there is really a look of Tang Sanzang going to the west to learn the scriptures.
Liupigou is located in the deep hinterland of Xishan. If it weren't for the mountain people around Xishan, no one would have found a direction.
For this firewood root, he seemed to be happier on the way home. He was no longer silent. He chatted happily with Gao Dashan and Liu Jinyin all the way, but Gao Dashan's son was very taciturn.
The yellow finch sits on the ox cart and only feels one word, slow! There's nothing I can do. This time when I went to the mountain, in addition to the equipment and packages for others, there were also 50 catties of refined salt and a lot of cloth that Liu Jinyin bought in Xishan Ancient Town. These were all good things. The yellow finch originally wanted to simply wait for others to walk, and there was no need to buy so many things, but Liu Jinyin said. The villagers in the deep mountains and forests don't like money. Their favorite is these simple gifts. Therefore, they and others buy 'heavy gifts' and leave. Only then can they seem to be sincere and easily get good things. Compared with good things of great value, what is these bitterness?
For these, Liu Jinyin was already a little grateful before he arrived at Liupigou.
The road is getting narrower and narrower. In some places, it is not a cow pulling a cart, but a person who unloads the car to carry the cow. There is no way. Without this old cow, these few people carry hundreds of pounds of things, which is undoubtedly looking for death.
At noon, everyone was eating dry food nearby. There is no need to talk about the hard work along the way. It can be seen from the dark shape of the yellow finch's face alone.
"Uncle Chai, how far is it?"
The yellow finch asked.
The mood of the firewood grass root is extremely happy now. He pointed to a high mountain in the distance with a smile and said, "At the foot of the black camel mountain is our village."
The yellow finch looked in the distance. The mountain seemed to be standing in the clouds and fog. He looked at the mountain and ran away. Now he really wanted to shout at the firewood and grass roots, "Damn it, are you so happy to be so far away?"
