Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang walked in the direction pointed by the old man, and the closer they got to the slum, the fewer pedestrians on the road, and the rest of the people were dressed very plainly, and the vendors setting up stalls on both sides of the street became more and more sloppy.After the two of them had passed through a laneway, they saw a dilapidated open gate with a long plaque painted with dark brown paint, which was crooked and dusty, and cobwebs.Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang stopped at the same time, raised their heads and looked at the two big characters on the plaque——— South Street.The appearance of Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang made the people in the door look at them curiously.There is no other reason, in the dilapidated environment around them, Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang's clothes are not only clean and tidy, but the fabrics are not ordinary at first glance.Coupled with their excellent temperament, especially Fu Zhenhong, wearing a white monk's robe without any filth, when he stood here quietly, he was like a quiet ancient jade, attracting people's attention.A dilapidated gate seemed to divide Nanjie and the outside world into two worlds, and Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang, as if they had strayed into this poor world, seemed so out of place.Chu Liuxiang sighed a little, because of this stark gap between the rich and the poor.The main street of Tiancang County is bustling with people coming and going, and it is prosperous, while the South Street in this gate is desolate, depressed, and dilapidated, and even the air seems to be filled with a certain dull gloom and dead air.Fu Zhenhong said to Chu Liuxiang: "Go in." ”Chu Liuxiang nodded: "Okay." ”After the words fell, the two walked into the door, and they also ushered in more people's attention.The width of the street is about two meters, and the houses on both sides are old, and the rubble on the roofs is uneven, some of which are still made of straw.On both sides of the street, some people sit in front of their homes, others by their windows.The appearance of Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang quickly attracted the attention of these people, and various emotions also appeared on the faces of these people, or inquiry, curiosity, envy, or hatred, and some were more complex emotions.Of course, among these people who are looking at Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang with their eyes, there are no more people who have a bright and positive and optimistic light in their eyes, and they still retain their sincerity to life and a heart that wants to change the status quo.Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but think of the little boy on the night of the Lantern Festival.The other party's eyes were also full of innocence, if it weren't for the fact that it was almost certain that the little boy had taken away his jade pendant, Chu Liuxiang would not be willing to believe that such a little boy would be a thief now, let alone believe that such clear and clean eyes were pretended.Thinking of this, Chu Liuxiang's mood suddenly became a little heavy, he is not the kind of person who is full of kindness and compassion, and he also knows that this world itself is unfair, he can't control it, and he can't control it.But knowing is knowing, when he didn't meet this kind of person, he could still ignore it and not think about it, but the reality is that he met it, and he met it as a child, so he couldn't act as if nothing happened.Fu Zhenhong saw what Chu Liuxiang was thinking, thought of the things Chu Liuxiang had been doing all along, and probably guessed Chu Liuxiang's emotions at this time.Chu Liuxiang has chivalry in his heart, he is a true gentleman, this kind of gentleman does not refer to those who are elegant and elegant in books, but refers to his conduct, integrity, elegance and dignity, free and easy but kind.Fu Zhenhong raised her hand and gently patted Chu Liuxiang's shoulder comfortingly, "No one wants to be willing to fall, here, absolute kindness and innocence cannot get a stable life." ”Chu Liuxiang pursed her lips, "I know." ”The law of the jungle is the eternal truth."
I know all this very well, but I didn't expect that now I would have to spend no time on you to comfort me."
Chu Liuxiang smiled and quickly returned to her usual state."
Let's get someone to ask first."
Chu Liuxiang said as she walked forward.As a result, the two of them didn't take two steps when they saw six men squatting on a large rock diagonally in front of them.To be exact, five people are squatting, and one person is sitting in the middle.The six men all looked like young people of little age, seventeen or eighteen years old, very thin and dark-skinned.The man sitting in the middle of the six seemed to be the leader of the men, with a roll of tobacco in his mouth and a birthmark on the right side of his face that almost covered half of the side of his face.However, although there is this birthmark, the man's facial contours are very smooth and clear, his facial features are relatively deep, and there is a faint sharpness between his eyebrows.He didn't have any smile on his face, and he didn't stare straight at Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang who came over like the other five, but drooped his eyelids, looking lifeless."
Big brother, look at those two."
Fu Zhenhong heard a person beside the man say this to the man.And after this person's words fell, the man sitting on the stone raised his eyelids and looked at Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang.At the moment when the man's gaze met Fu Zhenhong's gaze, the other party's eyes flashed, revealing a somewhat grim and sarcastic smile.He stared at Fu Zhenhong's face for a long time, then turned to Chu Liuxiang who was standing beside Fu Zhenhong, and then looked back and forth between Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang for a moment, and finally turned his gaze back to Fu Zhenhong's body, or more accurately, his gaze stopped on the string of glass-like Buddhist beads hanging around Fu Zhenhong's neck.Such a string of Buddhist beads is undoubtedly very valuable to these people, and Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang are wearing them, although the style of the clothes is quite simple, but the fabric is superior at a glance, which also makes them realize that this Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang are a piece of fragrant bun.It's not that these people can't see that Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang are not ordinary people without force, but the strong dragon can't suppress the head snake, and they don't think that their group of brothers will not be able to rob these two people.So in the next second, the five people who were squatting all jumped down from the big rock, and they came to Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang in a few steps, blocking the way of the two.Chu Liuxiang's brows furrowed slightly, but there was no change in the expression on Fu Zhenhong's face.One of the men with thick eyebrows glanced at Chu Liuxiang, then looked at Fu Zhenhong, and took the lead in speaking, "Where are you going?"
”He spoke very briskly, with the air of a scoundrel.When he said this, the other four people also walked to Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang's side respectively and surrounded the two.Chu Liuxiang naturally wouldn't be afraid of these people, but he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, so he suppressed the helplessness of being intercepted in his heart and replied, "Find someone." ”"Looking for someone?"
When the thick-eyebrow man heard this, he suddenly seemed to have heard some funny joke, covered his stomach and laughed, and said while laughing: "Brothers, did you hear it, he said to find someone." ”The other four laughed as well.And the man who was still sitting in the stone man just looked lazily at this side, not stopping or joining.As for the others on both sides of the street, they seem to be surprised by this kind of thing.They looked at these people with very complicated eyes, as if they were a little afraid of these people, but as if they were mixed with a kind of dependence.There was a hint of sympathy in their eyes when they looked at Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang, but behind this sympathy, there was also a bit of a sense of watching a good show.Fu Zhenhong said: "Please get out of the way." ”Fu Zhenhong's voice was pleasant, clean, calm and peaceful, not impatient or impatient, like a clear stream in this chaotic, decaying and unordered environment, and like a cloud floating thousands of miles away from the mud.Listening to Fu Zhenhong's voice, the men stopped laughing in an instant, but soon, after they came back to their senses, they immediately laughed even harder.They looked Fu Zhenhong up and down with bad intentions, and at the end, the man with thick eyebrows turned around and shouted at the man sitting on the stone: "Big brother, they said they were looking for someone!"
”Hearing this, the man with thick eyebrows called Big Brother spit out the cigarette grass in his mouth, and then stood up.As soon as he stood up, Fu Zhenhong found that the man was very tall, about 1.9 meters, although his body was thin, but the exposed arms and arm muscles were smooth, and he looked like a person who had practiced.He was dressed in coarse linen clothes, with long hands and feet, a slight hunched back, the length of his hair was just up to his shoulders, his messy black hair was tied to his head with a rope at will, the hair on his forehead was scattered, and there was a wild and untamable attack power between his eyebrows.The other party jumped down from the stone man and walked towards Fu Zhenhong.As soon as he got closer, the thick-eyebrow man stepped out of the way.The man stood in front of Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang, he stared straight at Fu Zhenhong, the color of the pupils in his eyes was as black as ink, and he asked Fu Zhenhong in a lazy tone: "Looking for someone?"
”The voice is a little hoarse, but it's not unpleasant.When the words fell, without waiting for Fu Zhenhong to answer, he smiled suddenly, and said unhurriedly: "Give me this string of Buddha beads around your neck, and I will help you find it, how about it?"
”Chu Liuxiang said: "No. ”Hearing this, the man raised his eyebrows, glanced at Chu Liuxiang, who interjected, and turned his gaze back to Fu Zhenhong's face: "How?"
”He asked again, not paying attention to Chu Liuxiang's answer at all.Fu Zhenhong did not refuse, nor did she directly agree, but said in a light tone: "If you give you the Buddha beads, how can you guarantee that you can find the person we are looking for." ”When the man heard this, the curvature of the corners of his lips spread a little, and his lips were very thin, which also made him obviously laugh at the moment, but with a coldness, "As long as it's on South Street, there's no one I can't find." ”Thick eyebrows also said: "Big brother knows everyone here. ”It's knowing, not just knowing.The eldest brother has lived here with them since childhood, but unlike the mud they can't support, the eldest brother has the ability to remember and has a super memory, but whoever he has seen, he will not forget.A few years ago, he also studied martial arts with a mysterious master with strong martial arts, and he had the opportunity to leave South Street, but in the end he chose to stay.
