1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 183 Xu Le, Seventh Son

He saw the electric lights flashing in the corridor and listened to the sound of footsteps approaching. Luo Tao immediately became alert and carefully tucked the dagger under the middle berth.

Then he pulled the strong boy who was lying on the bag to the bed, and said to them in a low voice and harshly: "I tell you, when you come later, just shut up if you say what you should or should not say, otherwise, hum."

Luo Tao used his hand as a gun, raised it up, and made a shooting motion. This was purely a prank to scare them.

Luo Tao then stuffed all the stuff of the strong young man into his pocket.

"Hey, what's the matter? Why do you still like to sleep on the ground instead of sleeping in a bed?" The voice was slightly louder.

Mr. Wang also quickly pulled the thin boy to sit on the bed, "Boy, be honest, we are all in peace, or I have to give you a grand slam."

Grand Slam is not really a jargon. Ordinary people would also call it this for young people who have been re-education through labor for three years.

The thin young man was already shocked by the ugly old man in front of him, and when he heard that they were talking about slang that he couldn't understand, and that he was sent to a labor camp and shot, he knew that his two brothers had hit a brick wall today.

The sturdy young man should have been stunned by Luo Tao's kick, so he could only be honest now.

"What are you doing? Why aren't you sleeping?" The uniformed policeman came over and saw the two of them sitting on the edge of the bed with their eyes wide open, not saying a word.

"Hello, Comrade Police Officer, nothing's wrong. It's just that this young man was not sleeping well and rolled down from the upper bunk."

"Hey, that's quite dishonest. If you have nothing to do, just go to sleep." The flashlight in his hand glanced at several people's faces.

Then he asked: "What happened to them?"

Luo Tao and Mr. Wang looked back at them and pretended to be asleep.

"Oh, this child was so sleepy that he didn't wake up." Mr. Wang quickly replied to him.

"Hahaha, old comrade, do you want me to help them carry it up?" The people's police * serve the people, this is really enthusiastic.

"Comrade, you're too polite. There's no need to do that. It will save them from falling down after going up."

"Hey, that's good. If you need anything, be sure to come to us."

"Hey, please go slowly." After seeing off the policeman, Luo Tao somewhat understood why these two boys cooperated with him so honestly.

He and Mr. Wang looked at each other and paid attention.

Luo Tao pushed the strong young man lying behind him, "Ahem! Boy, he's gone."

The two young men secretly glanced sideways and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tell me about it! How many times have you two gone in? We blocked it for you this time. According to the rules of the road, you have to show off!" Luo Tao was blatantly blackmailing and taking advantage of the situation.

"Thank you big brother, thank you old man, I only have five yuan in my pocket." Luo Tao looked at his pitiful appearance, he was really poor.

"Boy, what are you looking at? Where's yours?" Luo Tao saw that the thin boy was still stunned, and he didn't know whether he was pretending or not.

Mr. Wang went up and slapped him on the head.

"Snapped!"

"Oh, brother, I don't have any money, I've already bought a bus ticket, and it hasn't opened yet."

These two poor guys bought train tickets without money. Don’t they know how to evade fares?No, you can still work on the bus!You should be praised for your awareness that you still buy a ticket when you get on the train. This does not take advantage of the country.

"Ahem, go away." Seeing how aggrieved he was, she got angry. "Do you know the policeman just now?"

"We know each other. He was the one who arrested us last year."

Okay, these are just two mallets. I want to hang myself from a tree.

"Are there any instant noodles left?"

"Brother, yes." The strong young man said and quickly took his from the middle bunk.

He opened the bag and poured it on Luo Tao's bed. There were three bags left.

Luo Tao took a pack and gave it to Mr. Wang, and he also took a pack. This was what he and Mr. Wang meant when they looked at each other.

I extorted five yuan from him just to have fun, mainly because I wanted to eat noodles.

"Are you hungry? Oh, if you are hungry, eat that bread, and these three packs of instant noodles will be ours." Luo Tao asked them unnecessarily. Others snatched them away, so why are you being polite?

In the middle of the dark night, I heard a burst of mice stealing food and chatting.

The four of them were eating and chatting.By the way, let’s also get to know the basic situation of these two boys.

The sturdy one is called Xu Le, 19 years old, from Beijing. This kid's life experience is comparable to that of Mr. Jin, and he has a history of blood and tears.

When he was three years old, he had no father, and when he was ten years old, he had no mother, so he relied on the help from his neighbors in the courtyard.

Although he has only studied for a few days, he still understands the principle of not eating what he comes to. This child has a strong self-esteem, so he goes around the alley to pick up some scraps, thinking of making a living by himself. Unfortunately, this suffering is not over yet.

When his parents were still alive, there were two rooms in the factory. As soon as his parents left, someone naturally got greedy and bribed the factory leaders to occupy one room.

Forget about occupying one room. Once this person gets a taste of the sweetness, he will stop at nothing. During the Chinese New Year, he also tried to occupy Xu Le's other room. Fortunately, this person has not lost his humanity.

He arranged for 12-year-old Xu Le to live with a lonely old man. This time he really changed Xu Le.

Xu Le also learned this craft from the old man. Unfortunately, the old man left when Xu Le was 14 years old, and no one took care of him. He embarked on the path of Buddha with half-baked skills.

He started doing it on the bus in Beijing, but later he was ostracized by other Buddhas and received a few beatings. By chance, he came to Taiyuan and specialized in eating the rich people on the Shitai line. He also met him here. Seven sons.

This Seventh Son has no real name, his surname is Li, and everyone calls him Seventh Son because he practices Seventh at home.He has six older sisters and a younger brother. His father died young and his mother worked hard to support eight of them. It is easy to imagine such a family life. He is a native of Taiyuan and is 19 years old this year.

From the chat, I also know that their nature is not very bad. They are all forced by life. To put it bluntly, they are also victims of the lower class.

Last year, two people were caught by the police for stealing on the train. They were sent to a labor camp for a period of time. After they got out, they didn't continue to steal. Instead, they became hawkers. They got the instant noodles from the south last year.

Two people made a little money in more than half a year, mainly because they had little experience. They were deceived when they went there again a month ago.Therefore, he returned to his old profession. Unexpectedly, the first shot he made when he returned to the profession was broken in the hands of Luo Tao and Mr. Wang.

"What are you planning to do in the future? Being a thief is not a long-term solution!"

Luo Tao also intends to be their guide on the road of life, and reform them while they still have good knowledge, which can be regarded as contributing to a harmonious society.

"We really don't know. How about you two masters give us some guidance?"
