The years when I was an old man
Chapter 121 The Old Graveyard
Old Mr. Wu threw it away.
The group of beggars began to stir slightly.
Although no one went to pick it up.
But many beggars couldn't help looking at the place where the jewelry was thrown.
There was greed in his eyes.
They are tempted.
But still no one moved.
There are more and more people watching the excitement on the side of the road.
There is an aunt in her 50s who looks at the yellow and orange jewelry.
She couldn't hold back any of them, and went straight over to pick them up.
As soon as I bent down, I haven't waited to move.
I heard a beggar shout loudly in a hurry:
"Don't move, it's ours..."
It's fine if he doesn't shout.
With this shout, two beggars rushed over immediately, trying to grab it.
People have a herd mentality.
Sometimes, you obviously don't want to do, or feel embarrassed to do.
Do it when everyone around you does it.
You naturally follow suit.
So are these beggars.
When the first beggar started to move, the other beggars immediately rushed forward.
As soon as they moved, the spectators also moved.
Everyone wants to fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the chaos.
The entire roadside immediately became a mess.
Beggars and spectators mixed together.
They are all crazy, looking for jewelry on the ground.
"Run!"
Old Mr. Wu yelled at me.
Then, we quickly got into the crowd.
Towards the opposite side of the road, ran wildly.
Behind him, there was a sound of cursing from the middle-aged beggar.
"Don't fucking grab it, grab these two bastards!"
But his shouts no longer had any effect.
In order to compete for the jewellery, the gang of beggars and the onlookers started to fight.
While running, I realized that I had underestimated Old Wu.
Although he is over 60 years old, his escape speed seems to be no slower than mine.
After running for a while, he acted like nothing happened.
His face was not red, and he was not breathing.
It was me, out of breath and exhausted.
We both took a taxi.
As soon as he got in the car, Old Wu head looked back at the back of the car and said with a smile:
"Exciting, so exciting! I haven't encountered such an exciting thing in many years..."
Seeing his indifference, I stared at him fiercely and asked:
"If you couldn't run just now and were detained by these beggars, would you still feel excited?"
Old Mr. Wu didn't take it seriously at all.Still laughing and saying:
"What are you afraid of? Will I be beaten at most? Don't look at my old arms and legs, I am quite resistant to beating!"
With that said, he patted my shoulder and said:
"You boy, not bad!"
I didn't understand what he meant by that.
But I ignored him.
Standing in Guantuner Linjiang.
The taxi drove along the road by the river.
When we reached the outskirts, we stopped in front of a three-story courtyard.
This small western-style building has a grand appearance and an elegant style.
It is more charming than ordinary villas.
Old Mr. Wu and I got out of the car and just walked to the yard.
The heavy iron door suddenly opened.
I saw a man in his forties walking out with two people who looked like bodyguards.
Seeing old Mr. Wu, the man immediately stepped forward and greeted politely:
"Old Wu, didn't I say to send a car to pick you up? Why did you ask me to come here in person? It's a huge sin for me. Come on, please, Mr. Wu..."
It can be felt that this man respects old Mr. Wu very much.
Old Mr. Wu was also not humble, and walked in swaggeringly.
When I got to the living room, I took a brief look.
The living room is large and decorated in an antique style.
The furniture is all antique solid wood.
Eight immortals table, Taishi chair, mahogany sofa.
There are also various antique porcelains on the wall cabinets around.
There are several calligraphy and paintings of famous people hanging on the wall.
I don't understand antique calligraphy and painting, and I can't tell whether it is true or false.
As soon as he was seated, someone brought out the brewed tea.
The man exchanged a few words with old Mr. Wu, then he glanced at me and asked Mr. Wu:
"Old Wu, this little brother must be the master of the Thousand Gates you mentioned, right?"
Old Wu boss nodded.
The middle-aged man got up immediately, shook hands with me, and said politely:
"Hello, Chen Yongqing. Do some business on the river in Zhanguantuner. This time, there will be Brother Lao! Dare to ask the brother's name?"
"Sixth day!"
I shook hands with him.
But I was a little confused.
Old Mr. Wu told me before that he came to Guantuner to help him play a game against others.
I have already promised him this matter.
But looking at it now, it seems that this is not the case.
What the hell is this old thing doing?
Chen Yongqing also saw that I was a little confused.
He looked at Old Wu, and asked cautiously:
"Old Wu, didn't you tell Brother Chu what you're doing here?"
"No! You can tell him..."
Old Mr. Wu took a sip of his tea and said indifferently.
Sure enough, the old guy lied to me again.
Chen Yongqing immediately looked at me and said:
"It's like this, Brother Chu. We have a place here. It's not big, and it's been open for two years. The boss declared that his place is not big. But it is definitely the fairest place in Zhanguantuner, and it will never cost a thousand dollars. .And, this place also has a name, it's called Laoqian Cemetery!"
Old thousand cemetery?
The boss' tone is loud enough.
I took a sip of tea and listened quietly.
"The reason why it is called the Laoqian Cemetery is that anyone who cheats in this place will definitely be arrested, without exception. It is true that from the beginning of this case to the present, no less than dozens of cheaters, big and small, have been arrested. Either chop your hands, or pay a large ransom. Because of this, all the gamblers in Zhanguan Village love to come here to play. They feel that it is safer..."
With that said, Chen Yongqing handed me a cigarette.
After lighting it, I took a sip.
I still have doubts in my heart.
What does this have to do with me?
It's not like asking me to try, is this old cemetery real?
Let me go out and see if they can catch it?
Of course, I will never do such a thing.
After all, there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky.
Who knows if Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is hiding a thousand masters in this scene.
"To tell you the truth, Brother Chu, my Chen family started out with gambling. At the beginning, it didn't matter whether it was in Habei or Zhanguan. There were gambling boats of our Chen family. But after some things happened, our Chen family So I completely left the gambling shop and turned into a legitimate business. And my father and uncle also made a solemn oath that the descendants of the Chen family will never gamble!"
Chen Yongqing continued talking.
But what I heard was at a loss.
After talking so much, he still didn't tell me what to do.
But I didn't ask either.Smoking a cigarette, drinking tea, listening quietly.
"Hey, I'm ashamed to say it. Originally, no one in the Chen family gambled anymore. But my cousin of Uncle Habei's family liked to gamble since he was a child. He secretly worshiped a teacher outside the family and learned some skills It’s not just a thousand skills. My family didn’t know about it at first, but they came to play at our Zhanguantuner a while ago. I don’t know who he heard it from, but he actually went to the place I mentioned, which is called the old thousand cemetery. As a result, Chuqian was arrested and detained for two days and two nights. He was beaten severely and asked for a ransom of 100 million. If he did not pay, his hands would be chopped off! I was afraid that my aunt would be worried, so I kept I didn’t tell her. I paid the ransom and took him back. When I saw my brother, he was already beaten badly by them..."
Speaking of this, Chen Yongqing's face showed indignation.
He had a cold face and his voice became cold.
"Although my Chen family has left Landao Casino, it doesn't mean that anyone can bully us like this. I can't swallow this tone!"
The group of beggars began to stir slightly.
Although no one went to pick it up.
