Bailangbian

It takes about 15 minutes to ride a bicycle from the gate of No. [-] Middle School. After passing through several streets and a square, you can reach the largest night market street in the city.

Huihuang Street is not long, it is relatively deserted during the day, but very lively at night.

It was only 05:30 when Yu Dong and Song Fengfeng arrived at the intersection of Huaihuang Street. Business people were pushing their cars or suitcases, pouring into the narrow street from various alleys of Huaihuang Street, preparing to set up stalls.The barbecue stalls have already displayed all kinds of food, the mutton skewers are still raw, the oysters have been shelled, the corn and leeks are put on bamboo sticks, and the yellow and green places are placed in the most conspicuous places, which are fresh to attract customers. Shop sign.

Song Fengfeng took Yu Dong across the intersection of Huaihuang Street and walked to the opposite Longxing Internet Cafe.

Longxing Internet Cafe is the largest Internet cafe in the small town. It has three floors and a large and conspicuous signboard. It also flashes various lights at night, which is a considerable source of light pollution.

Song Fengfeng parked his broken bicycle at the door and looked back at Yu Dong.Yu Dong tucked his hands into the pockets of his school uniform, tucked his neck, and was looking at various small advertisements written on the outer wall of Longxing Internet Cafe.Those who connect the sewers, those who repair electrical appliances, those who sell adult products, and those who issue fake invoices.The landline and PHS numbers were written in large characters on the paper, each in black.

"How can you help me win it back?" Song Fengfeng asked.

"Battle." Yu Dong sniffled his nose, he felt as if he had caught a cold, his nasal cavity was sore, "I fight better than you."

Yu Dong didn't bring a computer here. The one at Song Fengfeng's house was really smashed by Song Yingxiong, but Zhang Jing did have it, and the configuration was not bad.The two of them went to play at Zhang Jing's house, and Song Fengfeng knew that both Yu Dong and Zhang Jing were better than him.It was rare for Zhang Jing to meet an opponent, and he was so excited that he would ask Yu Dong and Song Fengfeng to go to the Internet cafe to fight online almost every weekend.

He scratched his head: "But Brother Long is really good at fighting."

The owner of Longxing Internet Café is called Long Ge, a young man in his early twenties, who seems to have an unclear background, and is a very important figure in this area.

He set up a gamble in his Internet cafe, and used Warcraft to gamble money. Two people fought against each other, and then found two people to watch the battle.It is fair and just for the players to pay 50 yuan each as a deposit, and they are willing to bet and admit defeat.

"The 2000 yuan is your food expenses, tuition fees and living expenses for this month, as well as electricity and water bills." Yu Dong couldn't help but turn around, "How did you lose? You lost 40 rounds?!"

Song Fengfeng pulled Yu Dong aside: "In the beginning, it was 50 per game, and I lost about 500 yuan in three days. Later, Brother Long came to me and asked me if I wanted to come back. If I came back, I would bet 100 yuan."

To be honest, 50 yuan for a game is already very expensive for students, and this is not a way that ordinary people can afford.Yu Dong thought to himself, this is not a gamble for students to participate in at all, Song Fengfeng must be crazy, he has to play tricks by himself.

Yu Dong's face was very ugly: "Are you being fooled?"

"I refused." Song Fengfeng secretly squeezed his hand, "They won't let me go until I lose all the remaining 1500 yuan."

He had always lived heartlessly, but now he became serious, no matter how hard Ren Yudong struggled, he would not let go.

"Yu Dong, Brother Long is different from the people we usually meet, let's go."

Yu Dong refused: "It's all here, why go?"

"I never thought of asking you to help me win it back." Song Fengfeng looked at Yu Dong, "Why do you think I still run here every day? Because every day someone gambles with Brother Long in the Internet cafe. He also wins and loses. .I want to find someone who can win him, I can hire him, and help me win my money back.”

Yu Dong also looked at him: "Then you hire me."

"You can't win!" Song Fengfeng was anxious.

Yu Dong sincerely gave him advice: "If I can't do it, you can find Zhang Jing again."

"I don't want to bother you two!" Song Fengfeng squeezed Yu Dong's wrist tightly, "You both have to take exams, don't get involved in this kind of thing. Yu Dong, I know you won't be reconciled if you don't come here to take a look. You go back Go home. Mother Zhou is waiting for you to eat. We are friends, you are doing it for my own good, I know. I am also doing it for your own good, don't come into this kind of place. "

"Your father asked me to watch you!" Yu Dong raised his voice, "If you want me not to enter this kind of place, you don't enter it either!"

"What kind of place is this?"

A question floated from the side, the person who spoke seemed to be smiling, but also slightly unhappy.

Song Fengfeng quickly pulled Yu Dong behind him, and grinned at the young man who was still sitting on the motorcycle: "Brother Long."

Brother Long had long hair and a small knot in the back of his head, and smiled at Song Fengfeng.With a cigarette in his mouth, he lit it first, then stretched his legs and got off his shiny modified motorcycle, his eyes moved from Song Fengfeng's face to Yu Dong's.

"Yo." His smile became thicker, "Bring friends to play?"

"No, it's not for fun." Song Fengfeng still held Yu Dong's wrist with his hands behind his back, "He heard from me that you can watch the battle here, and Brother Long is the best, so come and see."

The Longxing Internet Cafe is fairly tidy, without the smog and cigarette butts that Yu Dong imagined.This small three-story building all belonged to Longxing Internet Cafe. Brother Long directly took the two of them to the VIP room. There were already people waiting there, and when they saw him coming in, they all got up and said hello.

Yu Dong took a glance and found that among all the people here, only he and Song Fengfeng had immature student faces.

Brother Long is good at playing World of Warcraft. He is well-known in this area, and the gamble he set up was not aimed at students. Song Fengfeng was not in his scope of deception.

But Song Fengfeng revealed his wealth.The students in the No. [-] Middle School are all from ordinary families, and there are very few of them who can gamble three games in a row like him.Although Song Fengfeng didn't look like a kid from a rich family, but Brother Long thought he was a real person and didn't show his face, so he thought of a way to deceive him a few times.

Unexpectedly, he really only had 2000 yuan, which was all living expenses for a month.

Brother Long told Song Fengfeng that it doesn't cost money to come to Longxing Internet Cafe to surf the Internet within this year.Being able to give this kind of promise and leniency, he felt that he was already very compassionate, almost a five-good citizen who could be commended.

Yu Dong and Song Fengfeng watched Brother Long play two rounds in the VIP box.He was the one who won, and the young man who played against him didn't seem to be annoyed, so he handed over 100 yuan to him, and asked him to have a barbecue at night before leaving.

Yu Dong couldn't help but glared at Song Fengfeng: This is not something you can play with!

Song Fengfeng thought he understood Yu Dong's eyes: "Are you in a hurry? The toilet is over there."

Yu Dong looked down at his watch.It's almost six o'clock now.They were going home around seven o'clock, just in time for supper.

When I looked up, I found that Brother Long was looking at him—at his watch.

"Good stuff." Brother Long said with a smile, "Who are you? I don't think I've seen it before."

Yu Dong sat next to Brother Long.

"Brother Long, I'll play a game with you."

Brother Long raised his eyebrows with great interest: "Are you playing with me? How?"

Yu Dong: "?"

Brother Long looked at him with a smile: "You don't need to give a deposit, you let me play, how about it?"

His little brothers laughed, Yu Dong and Song Fengfeng didn't understand, they looked at each other inexplicably. "I don't bet 50." Yu Dong pointed to his watch, "I bought this one for more than 800 yuan during the summer vacation. After depreciation, let's count it as 500 yuan. I'll just bet 500. Do you dare to bet?"

The smile on Brother Long's face disappeared.He looked at Yu Dong in surprise, and then at Song Fengfeng.In this Internet cafe where he is the only one, no one has ever paid such a sky-high price to fight against him.

"You are very good?" Brother Long looked up and down Yu Dong suspiciously, but no matter how he looked at him, he was just a handsome boy with a white face, neat clothes, neat nails, soft and clean hair, just a well-behaved middle school student.

Yu Dong told him the truth: "I have only played against my classmates recently."

Zhang Jing should be quite powerful.Yu Dong thought to himself, I am a little bit more powerful than Zhang Jing.

Brother Long put down his cigarette and licked his teeth: "Five hundred is five hundred, let's fight."

This game lasted half an hour.

When it was over, Yu Dong subconsciously glanced at his watch, it was 06:30.He and Song Fengfeng had half an hour left.

"I lost." Yu Dong unfastened his watch and handed it to Brother Long.

Brother Long didn't answer, but just looked at Yu Dong with the eyes of a fool. "What's the level of your classmates?" He pointed at Song Fengfeng and said to Yu Dong, "What shit skills, you are even shitter than him!"

Yu Dong bit his lip, his face flushed slightly: "I'm just unlucky!"

"Throw! Are you the one who attacks towers like this? Do you know what strategy is?" Brother Long was anxious, thinking how damn cute the kid blushed, but at the same time he was furious, "I'll play with you! What a waste of time! Throw it away!"

He was swearing, Yu Dong's face became more and more red amidst the laughter of his younger brothers and the surrounding students.

"I'm just unlucky!" Yu Dong yelled, "Do you dare to play again!"

Long Ge was so angry that he laughed.He felt that he was the one being insulted, as if the nine-pocket disciples of the beggar gang went to Shaolin Temple to challenge the sweeping monk. dog-beating stick.

Song Fengfeng hurriedly apologized to Brother Long, and dragged Yu Dong away.The little brother behind Brother Long couldn't stop laughing, and raised his voice and asked, "Still betting? What are you betting on? You still have 500 yuan?"

"I have 2000 yuan." Yu Dong grabbed the partition of the computer desk, resisting Song Fengfeng's force to pull him away, "Brother Long, I bet you 2000 yuan! Just one game!"

As soon as the sky-high figure was announced, the surrounding area fell silent.Brother Long was drinking soda with gusto, and accidentally choked his face all over. In the VIP room, Brother Long could only be heard coughing non-stop.

"...I understand." Brother Long pulled the younger brother's clothes to wipe his mouth, "You vented your anger on your classmates. But you are not skilled enough, so there is nothing you can do."

Yu Dong wasn't afraid at all: "One more game, you can see if I'm really not good enough, or if I lied to you on purpose just now."

Brother Long has always boasted that he has a good temper. Since October, he has only hit two people on the head with a wine bottle. Now he is a gentle and kind-hearted fringe boss, but he was also aroused by Yu Dong.

"Cheat me?" He put the Coke bottle heavily on the table, got up and touched Yu Dong's face, but Yu Dong flashed so fast that he didn't touch it, "Little boy, just bet. You win, 2000 yuan Return you and the watch, and I can give you the 500 yuan just now. But what if I win? I don’t want your money, but you have to go drinking with us tonight.”

Song Fengfeng quickly stopped between Yu Dong and Brother Long: "Brother Long, I'll go... I, I can drink, I know how to drink, you can just find me."

Yu Dong was extremely surprised: "Song Fengfeng, do you still drink alcohol?"

Song Fengfeng: "Don't talk!"

Brother Long didn't push Song Fengfeng away, so he showed a finger and poked Yu Dong's forehead: "I don't want you, Heitan. I want to drink with you, a boy with a white face."

Yu Dong raised his chin: "Then let's see if you can beat me first."

Song Fengfeng was in a hurry, but Yu Dong was not like this usually.He doesn't talk much, and he doesn't deliberately make others angry. At most, he looks at himself silently, which is already the limit of his emotional expression.

"Yu Dong..."

Yu Dong squeezed his hand, turned around and sat down without saying a word.

This time the game started quickly, and Yu Dong's style of play was completely different from before.The spectator's computer is behind the two of them. Song Fengfeng has been careful not to let Long Ge's younger brother tip off the news to Long Ge. He can only hear the occasional exclamation of the spectators behind him.

In Brother Long's camp, buildings collapsed one after another.

Ten minutes later, Brother Long conceded and played GG.The game is over.

Yu Dong looked at the screen calmly, then rolled up his cuffs and glanced at his watch.It was 10 minutes before seven o'clock, and they still couldn't get home on time, so they had to call Zhou Lan.

"...I lost it." Brother Long laughed, and it didn't sound like he was angry, "You are so good, I really pretended just now."

After the loss, he immediately woke up, and suddenly realized that this teenage child might have been observing his own style of play since he entered the door.He played two rounds against others in front of the child, and another round against him. These three rounds were enough for the white-faced kid in front of him to understand his style of play.

"What's your name?" Brother Long asked his younger brother to go to the cashier to withdraw 2000 yuan, and gave it to Yu Dong together with the [-] in his pocket, "Come play again next time, I know many masters."

Yu Dong bowed his head to count the money, stuffed 2000 yuan into Song Fengfeng's schoolbag, kept the remaining 500 yuan in his pocket, and did not answer Long Ge's words.

Brother Long's younger brother was furious, thinking that his big brother was completely ashamed this time, so he immediately raised his fist and yelled fiercely: "Ask you! Are you dumb or deaf!"

Seeing that the fist was about to come down, Song Fengfeng quickly blocked it: "If you can't fight, you can't fight...Brother Long, my classmate studies very well. Last month's mock test was still in the top three in the city. If you can't fight, you can't fight."

Brother Long raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Hearing Yu Dong standing behind him, Song Fengfeng hummed in a low voice with extreme impatience: "What are you talking about, hurry up."

That's right - he thought to himself, this is Yu Dong, the Yu Dong who is often impatient with him, but actually very gentle.

Some of the onlookers recognized Yu Dong, and they generally introduced to Brother Long, asking for credit: "He is from Class 1, Junior [-], No. [-] Middle School. He is very good at studying. He just transferred here this year..."

Brother Long raised his eyebrows again: "Oh..."

No one stopped the two students. Song Fengfeng cupped his hands at Brother Long. Brother Long lit another cigarette and said loudly to the two students who stepped out of the Internet cafe, "Stop playing games and study hard!"

Standing in the chilly air, Yu Dong suddenly coughed. "It stinks." He frowned and slapped his nose again and again, "Song Fengfeng, you must not smoke like others. I hate people smoking."

"I haven't learned it yet." Song Fengfeng said.

Yu Dong: "...do you really smoke?!"

"No!" Song Fengfeng quickly argued, "Never learned it! You, don't tell my dad."

He opened the car lock and just pushed it out, and immediately felt something was wrong.Looking down, the rear wheel was deflated.

"I rely on."

Song Fengfeng knew that Brother Long's younger brother must have done it, so he had no way to reason about it, so he could only admit that he was at a disadvantage and fix it first.

"I'm going to fix the car." He said, "You wait for me."

"I'll call grandma." Yu Dong pointed to the canteen beside him.

The car repair shop was right next to the canteen. Song Fengfeng returned the 2000 yuan in his pocket, feeling that he had become a rich man again, so he decided to treat Yu Dong to a drink later to thank Yu Dong for his generosity.

Yu Dong took out fifty cents and started dialing.

Song Fengfeng yawned, he felt hungry and cold. Of the 2000 yuan, I have to give Zhou Lan 800 yuan, because now my lunch and dinner are settled at Yu Dong's house.The fee for supplementary lessons and materials is two hundred, the water and electricity bills at home are also two hundred, and the winter clothes have not been bought yet, and another two to three hundred.The rest had to be sent to grandma. He counted his fingers, thinking that the 2000 yuan was actually not much.

Yu Dong seemed to be acting just now.Song Fengfeng slowly came to his senses at this time, he only felt that Yu Dong was amazing, in every sense.

The radio was on in the garage, and the host was talking about a singer who couldn't speak clearly, and he was going to release a new album in November.

It was an unusual day in October 2005.

Can he continue the achievements of "Qilixiang"?He just finished the Unmatched Tour!The host with a Taiwanese accent hummed a certain masterpiece excitedly. Song Fengfeng could also sing, so he hummed along while staring at the car repair shop to change the tire.

Suddenly there was a muffled bang not far away.A mineral water bottle rolled to Song Fengfeng's feet, and the inside was frozen hard.

Song Fengfeng raised his head, just in time to see two young men running away from him.Yu Dong hugged his head and slowly squatted on the ground.

The author has something to say: How are you = OK, you/you have kind/hahaha...etc.

And, remember Brilliant Street?
