In the next few days, Zheng Ling didn't see the old man again, and the people around him rarely talked about it.

That night, Zheng Ling was still washing the dishes in the back kitchen with her head bowed. The two aunts had just finished talking about their children going to school. An aunt on Zheng Ling's left seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly raised her head with a "ah", and then went back to Mysteriously, he began to share the anecdotes he found.

"Hey, old man, do you know why he hasn't come these days?"

"why do you know?"

"No, let me tell you, I heard someone say that the old man was beaten just before."

Zheng Ling's hands paused, and he raised his eyes to look to the left.

Another aunt asked what Zheng Ling wanted to ask: "Who did it? They even beat an old man."

The man saw that Zheng Ling was also very interested, so he talked more and more vigorously.

"Who else is there, isn't it the few people who rely on how many houses they have at home and do nothing all day long."

"Do you know why they beat the old man?"

"I really know that." The auntie glanced at the door, then leaned closer and said, "It is said that they saw the old man giving others a wad of money, so they decided to take care of him. Frustrated them, so a few of them started to do it."

"Ah? The old man gave money to others? Why?"

"Remember when I told you that there was a guy who lost money in the back alley?"

"Remember, what's wrong?"

"The old man gave the money to the person who lost it."

"Why did you give it to her? Is he stupid?"

"No."

"Tell me, could it be that the old man picked up that man's money, and later felt sorry for it, so he returned it?"

The aunt shook her head and said, "That's not true. I heard that those ruffians were the ones who picked up the money."

"what?"

Zheng Ling also opened his eyes wide.

"Didn't they have dinner in our shop yesterday? One of them was too drunk and Xiao Zhang who happened to go in to clear the table heard what he said."

"Why does that old man give money to that lost money?"

"I don't know, maybe he is just stupid."

At this time, Zheng Ling's hand holding the bowl was already tightly squeezed, and he asked Jin Fenghuang in his heart: "Do you know how the old man is doing now?"

Jin Fenghuang replied: "I can't say."

Hearing this, Zheng Ling became even more anxious. After a long time, Jin Fenghuang didn't say a word, so Zheng Ling could only turn to the two aunts who were chatting with other aunts, and asked, "Auntie, do you know where the old man lives?" ?"

The two looked at him in surprise, then shook their heads and said, "I don't know."

The aunt on his right asked another question: "Xiao Zheng, why are you asking this?"

Zheng Ling only said, "I'm just curious."

"It's better not to be curious about this kind of thing."

Zheng Ling lowered his head sullenly, and responded.

After finally getting off work, Zheng Ling picked up his schoolbag and walked to the back alley, looking around carefully along the way.

Half an hour later, he came to the back alley. It was the same as what Zheng Ling saw a few days ago, except that the moon in the sky was brighter and the wind was colder.

Zheng Ling searched for a long time, but couldn't find it.

He wanted to say a lot to Jin Fenghuang, but he couldn't say a word.

Under the moonlight, Zheng Ling walked slowly towards home with her schoolbag on her back.

In this dark night where even the slightest sound of the wind seemed noisy, Zheng Ling was walking not far from his home. He heard a group of people making loud noises in front of him. He remembered that there was a barbecue stall there, which was often noisy.At this moment, Zheng Lingyou felt very annoyed, frowned, and continued walking on the dim streetlights.

The closer you get, the clearer the sound ahead.

A man said, "Brother Yao, pick one."

There was a burst of booing around: "Pick one, pick one."

Among the voices of these people, a sharp female voice stood out: "Choose whoever you choose, it's late, let's go."

But this was obviously ignored by everyone, and they continued to yell: "Choose one!"

It was noisy for a few seconds, and soon quieted down. A man said, "Brother Yao, tell me."

Under everyone's expectation, the man named Brother Yao seemed to say something, but the voice was relatively small, and Zheng Ling couldn't hear it clearly.

Afterwards, he heard someone excitedly say, "I'll go and have a look first."

Immediately afterwards, Zheng Ling heard footsteps getting closer.

After a while, Zheng Ling saw another person at the intersection. He glanced at that person, and that person's gaze fell on the girl five meters ahead of Zheng Ling.

The girl paused, holding the satchel in her right hand, and froze in place.

The person at the intersection only looked at it for a few seconds, then turned back, his pace was more hasty than before, accompanied by the person's impatient shout: "It's a beautiful woman, brother Yao, you are so lucky."

As soon as the words fell, there was a whistling sound. Faintly, Zheng Ling heard a girl's dissuading voice: "Brother Yao, it's getting late, let's go."

The men were not happy anymore, and besieged her one after another: "What time is it? Let's go back. It's still early. If you want to leave, you go alone first."

The female voices who are weak and the male voices who cannot be underestimated start to argue.

At the same time, the girl standing in front of Zheng Ling suddenly turned around, clutched her satchel, lowered her head, and hurriedly passed Zheng Ling.

At that moment, Zheng Ling saw the girl's appearance, and she looked really good.

More than ten seconds later, when Zheng Ling appeared in the sight of those people, the originally noisy crowd seemed to have been forced to press the pause button, and suddenly fell silent, all of them were dumbfounded.

Zheng Ling glanced at them.He was relieved to see a girl in a black leather jacket.

After a few seconds of silence, someone said in surprise: "Damn, why is it a man?"

Arguments erupted one after another.

"Didn't you say she was a beauty? Is this a beauty?"

"Yes, where is the beauty?"

"Big transformation into a living person, this is it?"

"There is no distinction between men and women, you."

……

When everyone scolded the man, Zheng Ling curled his lips secretly.

At this time, the girl in the leather jacket began to comfort her: "Okay, stop arguing, everyone has seen that the one who came out was a man, so what I said before doesn't count." Then she lowered her head and sat facing her. The man who was smoking on the seat called softly: "Brother Yao"

Everyone was very dissatisfied with this ending, and one of them yelled again: "Brother Yao finally lost, we can't let it go so easily, the opportunity is rare, isn't it, brothers?"

A burst of agreement: "Yes."

Zheng Ling didn't look at them any more, and walked past them without looking sideways.

At this time, someone stopped him: "Little brother, don't rush to leave."

Zheng Ling thought to himself, I am not in a hurry to leave, I am walking slowly.But he still raised his head, looked at the tall, thin man with dyed yellow hair and spoke in a smooth manner, and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

After taking a closer look at Zheng Ling's appearance, the man stretched out a hand to wrap his shoulders. Zheng Ling was forced to turn around and look at the crowd. In his ear, the man said, "You must have heard what we said just now." heard it all."

Zheng Ling didn't reply, and the man didn't care, and continued, "I'm just going to trouble you, little brother, to stay here for a few more minutes."

Hearing this, Zheng Ling frowned, twisted his body, and tried to break free. The strength on his shoulders suddenly increased. After Zheng Ling struggled several times in vain, he finally recognized the situation, knowing that the strength gap between the two was too great. I had to be discouraged.

Seeing that Zheng Ling knew current affairs, the man turned his head and lowered his head to look at the man who was still smoking in front of him, carefully considered his tone, and said cautiously: "Brother Yao, look, the one we agreed to come from this intersection is the first People, and I didn't say it was limited to men and women."

Thinking that if he came, he would be safe, Zheng Ling felt at ease at the moment, and began to look at the brother Yao that everyone said.

This man named Brother Yao was sitting straddling a red stool at the moment, squinting his eyes in silence. Due to the relationship between the two of them, Zheng Ling couldn't see his appearance clearly, only a well-defined profile, but Even so, Zheng Ling could see that this man was impatient.

Zheng Ling continued to look up and down. Unlike the others in the group, he had black hair and was wearing a gray T-shirt and black trousers. Under the care of the smog.On the table in front of him was a cluttered pile of beer bottles and barbecues.

Seeing these red and spicy barbecues, Zheng Ling's eyes were all attracted. He suddenly felt a little hungry. While everyone was paying attention to the man named Brother Yao, he secretly swallowed, and then calmly touched his mouth. down the stomach.

During this moment of silence, the leather-clad girl standing beside Brother Yao spoke uncomfortably.She pulled Brother Yao's arm, pouted and said, "Brother Yao, let's go back, it's getting late."

This time, everyone did not refute her words, as if waiting for something, quietly.

Zheng Ling, on the other hand, stared intently at the barbecues, thinking about how much money was left in his pocket.

Zheng Ling didn't know how long it took before that brother Yao finally spoke.

"Row."

The voice is low.

Hearing this, Zheng Ling looked at brother Yao and looked at each other. After a few seconds, the man looked away first, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and crushed it.

Immediately, the man stood up, much taller than Zheng Ling.

It wasn't until this moment that Zheng Ling belatedly realized that he was also one of the parties being watched.
