Chapter 682: The down-and-out eldest brother
Chapter 682: The down-and-out brother
Listening to Zhang Haotian's words, the two women looked at each other. Before the woman in the yellow T-shirt could speak, the woman in the red T-shirt shouted: "Oh, you are talking about 'shadowless feet'. He comes here every day, but he doesn't pass by, but goes to the garbage dump to pick up things."
Zhang Haotian immediately said: "What 'shadowless feet'."
The woman in the yellow T-shirt smiled and said, "This man has no hands, so she has to pick up things with barefoot. Those children call him 'shadowless feet', and we can only call him that."
The woman in the red T-shirt followed and said, "Yes, once I saw him grab a rotten apple with his feet and put it in his mouth and eat it. It was so disgusting. You are quite rich, what should I do with such a person?"
Hearing these words, Zhang Haotian felt sad and waved his hand to stay away from him, smoking a cigarette while waiting silently.
About an hour later, a man came around the corner of the street. He was wearing a shabby gray shirt, but his sleeves were empty. A large canvas bag hung around his neck, black trousers had holes on his right knee, and his feet were wearing leather shoes, one black and one brown, which was obviously picked up.
Zhang Haotian only glanced at this person and knew that he was Chai Rong. Chai Rong, the "lightning tiger" who had become sworn with him and Feng Yushan, the leader of the Iron Blood Alliance, and was his elder brother.
At this moment, Zhang Haotian felt sad. Although Chai Rong, Feng Yushan and him had their own intentions to become sworn brothers, it was of great help to him no matter what. Moreover, Chai Rong was more straightforward and loyal than the gloomy Feng Yushan. His whirlwind sword technique made him superb. Zhang Haotian respected him very much. Seeing the end of the domineering person back then, people couldn't help but feel endless emotion in his heart.
Chai Rong did not see him and slowly walked into the door of the wall.
Zhang Haotian walked over and stood outside the door. When he saw Chai Rong coming to the garbage dump, he took off his shoes, forked his left foot with bare feet, raised his left foot, first took off the canvas bag, and then went to find pieces of paper, metal and other items in the garbage dump that could be bought. His movements were very slow and it seemed very difficult, especially his right leg, which seemed inconvenient, and undoubtedly injured and failed to recover.
Looking at this scene, Zhang Haotian felt like he wanted to cry, and walked over step by step, blocking him.
Chai Rong looked up at him, then turned around and went elsewhere to look for useful items.
Although Zhang Haotian was a little nervous, he did not use the vocal change pill. When he talked to Ah Fa, he just squeezed his voice a little tightened, making the voice older. Seeing that Chai Rong did not recognize him, he resumed his original voice and said in a low voice: "Brother Chai, I am Zhang Haotian. When we met for the last time, didn't I tell you that Hong Kong can't stay there anymore, so I came to see me? Why did you make yourself look like this?"
However, when he heard Zhang Haotian's words, Chai Rong's movement paused for a moment, but soon stuffed a newspaper into a canvas bag with his feet.
Unexpectedly, Chai Rong would ignore him, Zhang Haotian was a little anxious, kicked the canvas bag away, and then held his shoulder that lost both hands and yelled: "Brother Chai, look no further than me. I am Zhang Haotian, now I have makeup on."
Chai Rong looked at him silently with a pair of plain eyes for a long time, and nodded slowly and said, "I know you are Zhang Haotian, so what? I don't want to mention the past and the past people. You get out of the way, I want to do things."
He struggled for a while, but Zhang Haotian would not let him go and said, "Since I found you, I will not let you go like this. Go back to S City with me, and I will take good care of you."
Upon hearing this, Chai Rong suddenly smiled sharply and said, "My hands are gone, and the tendon on my right leg is broken. It has become a waste and a garbage. I am only worthy of staying in such a place. Zhang Haotian, go back to your world, I can take care of myself and don't need you."
Looking at Chai Rong's self-deprecating expression, Zhang Haotian was silent for a long time without saying anything, and said after a long time: "Okay, you take care of yourself, but no matter what, I am still your sworn brother, and my brother is here, and it's already late, are you going to expel guests without treating me to dinner?"
Chai Rong was silent for a while, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll treat you to dinner, come with me?"
As he said, he was about to get the canvas bag. Zhang Haotian hurriedly walked over and squatted for him to pick it up and hung it on his chest. Chai Rong slowly headed out of the wall.
After quietly following Chai Rong, he walked about 300 meters and turned a corner, and saw a remote corner here. There was an iron house in the corner, but the iron was covered with rust and there were holes everywhere, and there were not even doors. It was obviously abandoned by others and found by Chai Rong as a place to stay.
I walked into the iron house, which was only about ten square meters inside. In addition to a wooden board covered with rotten cotton, there were also some sorted recycling garbage, and a stinking smell came towards me.
Chai Rong turned his head and looked at him and said, "This is where I live. If you can't stand the stench, you can leave."
Zhang Haotian smiled slightly and said, "Since you can bear it, why can't I stand it? It's better to have such a place than sleeping in the open air. Brother Chai, what do you want to treat me to? By the way, you can't live without wine."
Chai Rong nodded and said, "Okay, wait, I'll be back soon."
After saying this, he walked to the west side of the house, dug out an iron box from a pile of metal garbage, then opened it with his feet, revealing half of the colorful bills, followed him and took it out, put it in a canvas bag, and hung the canvas bag around his neck with his left foot, then got up and went out.
Seeing Chai Rong's thin figure disappearing, Zhang Haotian lit a cigarette, sat on the bed, took a deep breath, looked at the garbage all over the room, and looked at such a harsh living environment, he realized that although Chai Rong had lost both hands, his inner stubbornness and self-esteem had not been lost. You must know that Hong Kong's economy is well developed, and the relief system is more perfect than the mainland. As a person with a serious disability and over fifty years old, as long as he speaks, his life will definitely be improved. Therefore, if you want to persuade Chai Rong to follow him, you must not show any pity for him and want to take care of him.
Twenty minutes later, Chai Rong came back. In his canvas bag, there were several fast food boxes, including char siu, oil chicken, sauce meat, rice noodles and other dishes, as well as four bottles of white wine, but the cash they brought was gone.
There was a table with two corners missing in the room. Zhang Haotian helped him put the dishes on the table, picked up the chopsticks, casually held a piece of char siu and put it in his mouth, and said, "Well, it tastes pretty good." Then he found two bowls and poured two bowls full.
Chai Rong went to wash his feet with water, and then ate with chopsticks on his left foot. Although it was a little inconvenient, it would never affect his eating.
Zhang Haotian was full of emotion, but it did not show it on the surface, but instead he was polite to him. Chai Rong could not hold up the bowl, so he lowered his head and kept drinking.
This liquor is a pound of old white kung glutinous rice dumplings in the mainland. The two of them drank half of their bottles. Seeing Chai Rong getting a little drunk, Zhang Haotian said, "Brother, although you lost, have you ever thought about making a comeback?"
Chai Rong lowered his head and took a sip of wine, suddenly smiled bitterly, and said, "Come on the way? How come I am like this? Seeing my brothers who have been following me for many years fall down one by one, I feel so painful and tired. The disputes in the world are endless. Only by leaving this circle can I be relieved."
When Zhang Haotian heard this, he thought of Chen Qiang and Gao Yun's death, and felt ache in his heart. He immediately understood Chai Rong and couldn't help but say, "Where are your family, do they know that you are here?"
Chai Rong was silent, with deep sorrow in his eyes. He lowered his head and drank all the wine in the bowl, and then said in a low voice: "It's gone, it's gone. A year ago, Xinyi'an installed a time bomb in my car and wanted to blow me to death, but I had something to do and left in another car. My eldest son went to drive my car and took my wife and second daughter to visit my grandmother. The car was halfway through...just..."
Speaking of this, there were tears in Chai Rong's eyes. Obviously, he could not forget the death of his wife and children until now.
Zhang Haotian felt sad and hurriedly opened another bottle of wine and poured it on him.
Chai Rong lowered his head and took a big sip, let out a long sigh, and then said, "At that time, I knew that I could not fight Xin Yian. I had originally planned to withdraw, but this incident left me no way out. I decided to fight Xin Yian to the end, so I took the remaining brothers to launch an attack on them. But in the end, Xin Yian surrounded us in the New Territories. In that battle, most of my brothers were gone, and I also lost both hands. Fortunately, more than a dozen good brothers escorted me out to death, so I left this life. After my injury healed, I gave all my property to the injured brothers or their families, and then wandered here."
Zhang Haotian immediately said: "Aren't you afraid that the people from Xinyi'an will come to you?"
Chai Rong drank a sip of wine and suddenly burst into laughter, saying, "I'm afraid, I'm not afraid of anything now, death is nothing, life is too painful. Now, as soon as I close my eyes, I will think of my brothers and my wife and children. I always dream of them asking me to accompany me at night. I really want to go, I really want to go."
Hearing Chai Rong's shrill laughter, Zhang Haotian understood that his life was torture himself to relieve the pain of losing his close relatives and brothers. Thinking that he had experienced this, he didn't know what would happen if he had experienced it like this, so he couldn't help but pick up the wine bowl and took a big gulp.
Chai Rong looked at him, with a little sobering look in his eyes and said, "Haotian, I know you are doing well now. The whole South is already your world, but remember that as long as you are in the underworld for a day, you must be prepared to pay the price. The feeling of thousands of swords piercing the heart will really make life worse than death, and life worse than death."
Speaking of this, he suddenly lost control, lowered his head and drank all the wine. He kept pounding the table with his head, muttering something in his mouth, probably the names of his relatives and the brothers who followed him.
At this moment, there were tears in Zhang Haotian's eyes, he stood up, hugged Chai Rong's head and said, "Brother, don't do this. You can live well and live happily. This is what your family and your brothers think."
But Chai Rong could no longer listen to his words, and kept screaming and roaring. Although he could not hear clearly what was roaring, no one could feel the extreme pain.
Zhang Haotian knew that he was drunk and hugged him until his movements gradually stopped, closed his eyes, and then he carried him to the wooden bed to sleep.
...
When he returned to the table, Zhang Haotian's heart could not calm down for a long time. When he embarked on this road, he didn't think much, but now, he has been able to deeply understand Chai Rong's pain. Chai Rong's today may not be his tomorrow. Chen Linglong has lost his mind and it is difficult to guarantee that he will do anything crazy next. He has no confidence in winning this war, so where should he go?
Now, there are undoubtedly only two ways before him.
The first way is to end everything, surrender to Chen Linglong or disband the Tianlang Gang and Wanhong Gang. He took all his women and sons to the Shengling Forbidden Zone and lived a peaceful and peaceful life in the blue sky, white clouds and vast grass. However, doing so was undoubtedly a cowardly act, and so many brothers died in vain in the early stage. In addition, once Chen Linglong unified the north and south, he would never let anyone who was against him go, including the underworld bosses who joined the Tianyi League, he could not escape his liquidation.
Since the first path cannot be taken and he will never choose this cowardly path, he can only choose the second path, pick up his weapons, and fight bravely. On him, what he is flowing is the blood of Genghis Khan, and what he wants to do is a man who dominates the world and moves forward bravely. Seeing Chai Rong's pain makes his determination to defeat the enemy stronger. Only by winning as soon as possible can everything end. If you want to bleed, let it flow. Whether it is the woman who follows him or his brothers, they all know the risks of following him. Blindly worrying will only make him shrink his hands and feet and easily lose this war. The winners since ancient times have needed to be as hard as a stone. What he needs to do is to command more calmly and wisely.
It was already late at night, and there was no place to sleep in the room except the wooden board, so Zhang Haotian didn't care. After quietly pondering in the middle of the night, he lay on the table and took a nap for a while.
...
On the morning of the next day, Chai Rong's wine sobered up. Seeing that Zhang Haotian had not left yet, he stood up and said, "Zhang Haotian, I have already invited you to drink wine. You go, don't come again in the future. I don't want to see you again."
However, at this moment, Zhang Haotian made an unexpected move, bent his knees and knelt down at him.
Chai Rong's eyes showed a look of surprise and said in a deep voice: "You...what do you mean?"
Zhang Haotian looked up at him and said, "Add to be a disciple."
Chai Rong immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Aditing to be a disciple, your skills are not inferior to me. What can I teach you?"
Zhang Haotian immediately said: "Of course there is, the whirlwind sword technique is definitely a strange and powerful sword technique, which has always made me yearn for it. I want to ask you to teach me this sword technique. If you don't agree, I will kneel down for a long time."
He said this with a serene and sincere look. No one could doubt his sincerity in becoming a disciple. Chai Rong stared at him silently for a long time, and after a while, he said: "Haotian, you wanted me to follow you, and then I thought of this method. Does it seem like I am still useful?"
Zhang Haotian said seriously: "Is the whirlwind sword technique useful? Only you know the best. I don't think you want it to be lost from now on, right? Are you worthy of the master who passed on your sword technique?"
