The years when I was an old man

"I'm sorry, sister. I came here rashly, and I want to ask you two questions!"

As soon as I said it.

The master of the Orchid Sect looked at me with a half-smile.

After a while, she said slowly:

"Sister? According to my age, you should call me auntie..."

Sure enough, I was right.

This orchid sect master is indeed not young.

It's just that they don't know if it's their Lanhuamen's unique ability to maintain beauty, or if she takes good care of it.

In short, she looked very young.

"Tell me, what's the problem?"

The gatekeeper looked at me and asked a question.

"At the end of last year, you went to Harbin to sweep the grave of a man named Melo. Can I ask, what is your relationship with Melo?"

The gatekeeper didn't answer my question.

Instead, she stared at me motionlessly with her unique peach blossom eyes.

After a while, he opened his mouth and said:

"His name is not Melo, he is Chu Changfeng!"

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, my heart couldn't help but shake.

Chu Changfeng is my father's real name.

And Melo was the pseudonym he used when he traveled the rivers and lakes.

Unexpectedly, this sect master actually knew my father's real name.

As I was thinking about it, the door master looked at me again and said:

"Your name is Chu Liu, right?"

I nodded.

"Then you should be Chu Changfeng's son?"

I never thought that this sect master would reveal my identity in no time.

Many pretense, many lies that I thought before.

And at this time, it's useless at all.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone that you are Chu Changfeng's son. Are you looking for me today because you want to know about my relationship with your father? Or do you want to know about your father's past?"

The door master spoke again and asked me.

"Everybody wants to know!"

I answered immediately.

The doorkeeper smiled.

Looking at the leftovers on the table.

Suddenly, she asked me a strange question.

"Do you think there is real friendship between men and women?"

Lord Hong once discussed this issue with me.

His point of view is very simple, what a confidante, a girlfriend of the opposite sex.

It's just self-hypnotic nonsense.

Of course, it is impossible for me to share Master Hong's point of view with the sect master.

After thinking about it, I said perfunctorily:

"Maybe?"

The door master raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.

"Of course, your father and I have this kind of unswerving friendship!"

While speaking, she slowly got up.

He walked to the table, took the bottle, and poured himself half a glass of wine.

Picking up the wine glass, she sniffed it lightly, and said quietly:

"The son of an old man is here, so I will know everything. Chu Changfeng and I met in Bashu. That year, I first entered the rivers and lakes. Originally, I was a waiter serving tea in a dark place. But Unexpectedly, one of the bosses of this venue suddenly took a fancy to me. After drinking, in front of all the gamblers, he started to touch me. He even wanted to use force on me..."

Originally, the sect master had a calm expression just now.

But when she said these words, there was a lot of hatred on her face.

After taking a sip of wine, the door owner continued:

"Of course I refused. When I was struggling, I bit him. Unexpectedly, this bastard was furious, and he began to beat me in public. I can still remember that scene now, not counting my bloody head. He actually ordered someone to tie me up at the door, take off my coat, and pour cold water all over my body!"

The door master squeezed the wine glass, and the more he talked, the more he hated it.

"You must know that it was the twelfth lunar month of winter. It was the coldest season of the year in Bashu. I was half frozen to death with a few pots of cold water. At that moment, I promised that boss not to torture me anymore. I never Can't you do it? But, that bastard didn't do it! Hehe!"

While speaking, the door master sighed heavily.

"I thought that I would be frozen to death that day. Unexpectedly, a man took a few brothers and passed by there. Seeing this scene, after asking the reason, he proposed to the boss that he wanted to spend some money I bought it. The boss didn't know if it was because he was drunk or because of his face. In short, he disagreed. He even said wildly that if anyone dares to meddle in other people's business, he will also tie that person up..."

At this time, the sect master was completely addicted to memories.

She looked up out of the window and continued:

"At that time, I only remembered that the man only said two words to me, waiting for me. Then, he led people into the arena. In fact, at that time, I had no hope. Unexpectedly, after a while , the boss went out to help me untie the rope. At that time, I didn't know what happened. I didn't know until after the incident..."

Saying that, the door master looked at me and stretched out a finger.

"Ten minutes, but 10 minutes. This man wiped out all the cash in this business. Although the business was not big, there were hundreds of thousands of cash in circulation. At the same time, including winning me!"

"The boss is still a little bit dissatisfied. He threatened the man and asked if he dared to leave his name. The man only said two words, Melo. After he finished speaking, the boss was dumbfounded. The name, what does it mean? I didn't know until later that Melo is the legend of Lando, and the god in the hearts of old men..."

The door master sighed softly.

Put the wine glass on the table.

He turned his head, looked at me, and said:

"Later, I also asked some old men who have been famous for a long time. Why do these old men admire Melo so much? They told me two things. First, Melo's thousand skills have reached the peak. Even in the face of Qianmen's seniors, no one can see how he got out of Qianmen!"

"Secondly, although Melo is an old man, he rarely does heresy things. Moreover, he still has the chivalrous and courageous spirit of the old-school Jianghu people. The flood in a certain place in the Kanto region caused no grain harvest. Melo He threw away his millions of wealth. It is said that when he left there, he only had five yuan left in his hand..."

Saying that, the door master actually laughed.

"There are really too many examples of this kind. If I tell you, I'm afraid it will take me a whole day and a night!"

I was on the sidelines, listening silently.

But in my heart, there are turbulent waves.

I've always felt that cheaters are just heretics.

But I never thought that my father was a cheater.

But he regarded Qianshu as a tool to help others.

I can't do this.

It can even be said that I never thought of doing it like him.
