old cannon

Chapter 2 Master Liu took a breath and stared at the moon. He felt that the moon was bloody.

A piece of acacia wood the size of a table slowly took shape under Liu Ye's hands.

At this time, it was almost dusk, and the sky was already dark.The tone of the entire Ya'er Hutong cooled down, but the tone rose.Out-of-town tenants came home one after another, cursing and cursing; bars outside the street roared like thunder; children shouted and ran around after school, with books and pencil cases in their schoolbags, jingling; some people practiced piano, The sound of the piano creaked and drifted up, twisting and crawling in the air.Sixth Master was in his yard, smoking a cigarette, leaning over, moving his hands, twisting and stretching.The wood bloomed and fell one by one.Sixth Master pinched the cigarette butt, took out the dick, and took a sip with his head up, a wave of heat gushed out of his chest.

Master Liu has two adzes, one big and one small.The big adze is old, the adze handle is polished smooth and shiny, but the steel mouth is sharp, and when the adze is lifted, it makes a rattling sound.The small adze is Xin'an's handle. The head of the adze is made with a dowel. When you swing it, it has enough strength and smooth force.

Lamp Shade looked at Liu Ye's adze wood, and praised him.

Sixth Master raised his eyes: "How about it, the work is okay!"

Lampshade said, "The adze is not bad! Where did you get it?"

Master Liu said: "The big ones existed before, and the small ones were made by a master recently."

Lampshade: "It can't be brother Liu, your former guy?"

The sixth master said: "I don't want to pay for my mother's money. I'm just a fool. It's a drop in price!"

Sixth Master entered the room, came out with a plane, and threw it towards the lampshade, "Come and help, beat this board."

He took the lampshade over, looked left and right, bobbed up and down, and digged.

Sixth Master squatted on one side, lit another cigarette, and looked up at Mynah.

"Boer, call out!"

"Brother!" mynah called.

"Call again!"

"elder brother!"

Sixth Master smoked happily.

Lamp Shaer said, "If you call it that again, Xiaobo will be ashamed!"

Master Six's heart sank.Stand up and rub your feet on the ground.Walking to the reclining chair in front of the door, he sat down, "Come on, I bought it for him. After so many years, I know this 'brother'. After listening to it for a long time, I feel at ease."

The lampshade brushed the shavings off the wood, "Really? Life is messed up. Has Xiaobo been back recently?"

Sixth Master closed his eyes and shook vigorously, the reclining chair was like a swaying boat.

"Forcing the bastard, talk to him! Love his mother and come back!"

"Never called?"

"Fuck! My phone is a firecracker, and it hasn't rang for half a year!"

"Aren't you going to look for it?"

"Why are you looking for him? I'm fine."

"Aren't you bored?"

"Why are you bored? I'm just looking forward to this leisurely life. I don't do anything, I don't think about anything. I just eat a bowl of noodles with fried sauce every day. When I'm hungry, I go to the old horse's house to eat it. I'm happy, happy, and drink it." Like honey, why are you looking for him? The father and son are staring at each other? If you say something, you will turn your face, and when you look back, you still have to be tense and fake polite. It's like Mom recording a show. Farewell! It's going to rain, and Mom is going to get married, so I can't keep it!"

Sixth Master jerked his head back, and the recliner overturned.Sixth Master stood up in embarrassment.

Lampshade smiled: "You still miss it!"

Master Liu waved his hand: "Stop talking! Don't mention this matter in the future."

Lampshade saw that Liu Ye's face was not right, so he stopped talking.He erected the planed tricycle board and knocked it on the ground.Compared with the tricycle, measure the size.

"I heard from Pinball this morning that Maoyan was hit by a bunch of brats?" Sixth Master said.

"I've heard that those kids are really badass!"

"Who brought them?"

"I don't know, the rangers are scattered. Now this kid is not like before. They don't even say hello. A van comes and chops it up when they get off. There are no fucking rules! A while ago, Bai Huo and the others were doing it with a bunch of kids. I went up, and Gu Gu followed, guess what happened when I went there?"

"how?"

"One of the children on the opposite side is the son of Gu Gu. Gu Gu winked at his son, but his son didn't even look at him. He was so anxious that Gu Gu scolded the street, saying, 'I'm your fucking father, you still want me? Can you beat your father?" His son directly said to him, "I'm not a father, let's talk about it after the beating!" Sixth brother, do you think it's OK or not?" Lamp Shaer said, laughing to himself.

Sixth Master bowed his head and said nothing.

Fighting and shouting came from outside the door.The lampshade opened the door to look, and Sixth Master also leaned over to look.

Several young people were pushing and shoving at the entrance of the alley, a yellow-haired man cursed something, a black dwarf grabbed a wine bottle from behind and threw it on the yellow-haired head.The two groups quickly scuffled together.

"I'll go and have a look! It's outrageous!" Lamp Shaer stretched out his sleeves, trying to stop him.Seeing that Master Liu was not moving, he hesitated and stopped.

Sixth Master tilted the lampshade: "Go, I won't stop you, if you can pull them away, from now on I'll follow you and call you Brother Huer!"

Lampshade said embarrassingly, "Sixth Brother, don't embarrass me."

Sixth Master took a sip of the diner, glanced at the young people who were fighting together in the distance, chuckled lightly, and turned back to the courtyard.

Lampshade followed behind Master Liu, looking back from time to time, "Children nowadays are not serious about their actions. Regardless of the consequences, you should go and find Xiaobo. We, we don't understand those things in society. Now, Xiaobo is just a baby, don't suffer??"

"Don't look for it! I came back when I couldn't hold back." Liu Ye's back sank, and he said hoarsely.

The moon hides, the stars are dumb, the street lamps are dark, and the whole outside seems to be wrapped in a sack, stuffy, breathless, and speechless.Only Liu Ye's room was still lit, a withered yellow lamp hanging diagonally.There was a table tennis match on TV, Mr. Liu's eyes were dim and he couldn't see the ball clearly. He could only see two players across the table, waving their arms, like two people who couldn't understand each other, trying to explain something.Liu Ye's eyelids became heavy, and the screen on the TV began to distort, turning into a vortex. The vortex turned faster and faster, and the groceries, phones, and hangers around him were sucked in together with the birdcage.The sixth master thought to himself, fuck it, the TV has become a thing.Sixth Master wanted to grab the bedpost, but his body seemed to be sucked out, and he couldn't use his strength.Liu Ye flew out, his body shrank and felt cold, like being wrapped in a boa constrictor, and then suddenly thrown out, like torn paper.Liu Ye fell down and saw people all over his body, smelling of sweat, leather, drinks, bread, and foot odor.Sixth Master wanted to vomit, but couldn't vomit.Looking through the heads, he saw that the two players on the TV were still waving.A player suddenly became violent, threw a racket in the opponent's face, jumped on the table and hit it.In the auditorium, the crowd shouted and rushed down, and the audience on the opposite side also rushed down.The hall shook and dust fell.Sixth Master didn't want to rush, but was coerced and passed by.Master Liu shouted, are you fucking crazy!But it was overshadowed by the crowd.The two groups of people met and fought together, the boy punched him in the face, Liu Ye jumped over, grabbed his head, and knocked on his knees, the man's face blossomed, he fell down, and stood up again.The man punched again, Liu Ye blocked it, stretched out his shoulder, and locked his throat with his hand.The man blushed and struggled.Sixth Master stared at that man, only to find that this man was his son, Xiaobo.Master Liu let go, and Xiaobo punched him again.Sixth Master flashed by and shouted, Xiaobo, it's me, it's me!There was a lot of voices, and Liu Ye's voice became hoarse, but Xiaobo still had no expression on his face, and slammed at Liu Ye frantically.A person hugged Liu Ye from behind. When Liu Ye looked back, it turned out to be another Xiaobo.The two Xiaobos pushed Liu Ye to the ground, kicked and kicked him.Sixth Master covered his head, and through the cracks, he saw a woman with disheveled hair slowly walking towards him, with a pair of white high-heeled shoes on her feet, and a gray-blue skirt, which was the dress his wife wore when she got married.He couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but he could smell the familiar scent on her body.The woman turned around Liu Ye's body, with a sharp knife shining above her head.Sixth Master smiled bitterly, Dou Zi, you kill me.The woman's hands stopped in the air, and she didn't make a move for a long time.Two Xiaobo shouted behind him, kill him, kill him!The woman waved her hand down, Liu Ye glanced at the two excited and ferocious Xiaobo, his throat felt cold, and he closed his eyes.

A sudden phone call rang, and Liu Ye jumped up.There were tears in his eyes, his throat was dry, and it was as if a sap had been stabbed in the back of his head.Sixth Master ran to the phone in a daze, and picked it up.

"Which one?"

A burst of soothing music came from the phone, which made Liu Ye's ear hurt.

A synthetic female voice said unhurriedly: "Dear customer, you haven't paid this month's phone bill??"

Sixth Master hanged up in a slump, with a throbbing pain in his chest.Sixth Master knelt on the ground, struggled to climb to the bedside table, dug out the medicine bottle, shook out two or three pills, and swallowed in one gulp.Liu Ye was lying on the ground, beating his chest hard, as if he had been poked six or seven holes in his body.Through the window sill, the moon flashed out, and a cold light struck Liu Ye's face.Liu Ye took a breath and stared at the moon. He felt that the moon was bloody.

There was a knock on the door outside the house, and Liu Ye got up.Picked up a waste radiator from the table.

"Who is it!" Sixth Master hoarse.

It was stuffy outside, without speaking.

Sixth Master clenched the heating pipe tightly, opened the door, and a thick upper body figure poked at the door.

"Brother Six, excuse me!" The shadow made a low voice, his throat seemed to have been polished by sandpaper.

Sixth Master took a closer look, the man was riding on a small folding bike, it was cold, but he was only wearing a thin shirt.Flat head, square face, and a green beard.The neck is as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and the forearm is exposed. The tendons and veins are like the tough roots of an old tree, intertwined and criss-crossed.The eyebrows are like two sharp axes, hanging obliquely.The eyes are not big, but they emit light, like a lake at night.

Sixth Master threw the thing in his hand, "Men Saner, are you free today?"

Men San'er said in a muffled voice, "There's a job in the hotel next door, and I remembered something soon, so I wiped my face and came over to talk to you. I saw Xiaobo two days ago."

Master Liu's lips trembled slightly, "The little brat is still alive!"

Man San'er said: "I met him outside a KTV, and he said that he is now sharing a house with someone else in the east."

The sixth master said, "Where did he get the money? Didn't he get fired?"

Man San'er said: "Unpredictable, I think the group of red foxes and green crows around him are unreliable, you should bring the child back earlier."

Master Liu nodded, "What's the matter with you? We haven't seen each other for three months, and you're still single?"

"Still like that, you bastard!"

Men San'er kicked the car, and the car rolled forward.
