The waiting time is the most difficult, but fortunately, I finally waited.
After a little preparation, we set off, and the target was Linhai, a coastal city. According to Huang Bin, the warlock from Nanyang was in a small fishing village near Linhai with He Xiaoru, and we planned to smuggle from there. But it happened to be severely cracked down, so he was stranded in a small fishing village.
This made me feel lucky for He Xiaoru's luck. After all, once we return to Nanyang, our affairs will not be as convenient as in China.
Because of the long distance, we took the plane directly, and soon we arrived at Linhai, and under the guidance of an acquaintance of Huang Bin, we went directly to Jinyang, the county where the small fishing village belongs.
Not many people came this time, Huang Xiaolong and his son, me, and Wu Jian and his wife. As for why Ni Min came, it was very simple. After discussing with Wu Jian, I felt that it would be much safer if Li Guihua was together.
Staying in a hotel room, Huang Bin introduced the situation to us.
"It's a fishing ban now, so there are very few people in the small fishing village. With so many of us passing by, it is easy to attract the attention of Nanyang warlocks, so I plan to let you go in in batches, but be careful, the current situation in the fishing village is very strange. I have gone to see it, and it seems that it is not only the Nanyang warlock, so you must be careful, don't force it, and if you have any problems, please contact me in time."
I looked at Huang Bin in surprise, did he mean not to go in with us? But after all, I just met him not long ago, and he is Huang Xiaolong's father, so I don't have much to say.
Huang Xiaolong didn't have such scruples, and said directly: "Ah, you don't want to go."
Huang Bin smoked and said, "Now is the time to test you, don't embarrass me."
"Oh." Huang Xiaolong showed a helpless look.
Seeing Huang Bin's decision, Wu Jian directly allocated them. In fact, it was very easy to allocate. He was in a group, and Huang Xiaolong and I were in a group. movement. It's just that Wu Jian's departure time will be one day later than that of Huang Xiaolong and me.
Early the next morning, Huang Xiaolong and I set off, dressed as backpackers, and went directly to the small fishing village.
Coastal cities, especially places where fishing is the mainstay, always have a fishy smell that cannot be removed. I guess it is this smell that will allow us to find the small fishing village without navigation.
The fishing village is smaller than I imagined, probably only about 10 households, but the pier and roads are very spacious. When Huang Xiaolong and I walked up, it was very conspicuous and attracted the attention of many people.
But we ignored it, I took the camera, and Huang Xiaolong took seven or eight photos in different places, and finally came out a dark, muscular old man of about 50 years old.
"What are you doing?"
I put down the camera that was about to take pictures, and politely handed over a cigarette: "Uncle, hello, we are from Surabaya. The scenery here is so beautiful, so we took pictures. We planned to eat seafood, but now Very few, but I heard from people in the city that it’s cheaper to come to a fishing village like yours to eat the freshest.”
I was very familiar with the chatter, the old man took the cigarette and lit it and said: "You should have come here a month earlier, you see, fishing has stopped now, there is nothing good to do."
"I also want to come sooner, but I didn't know there was such a beautiful place."
The old man grinned: "What's so beautiful, isn't everything like this."
"Uncle, you are so humble." I saw that Huang Xiaolong had already walked over, so I continued: "Uncle, can you sell us some seafood, so that we can try something new."
The uncle glanced at us: "You don't belong to the Fisheries Bureau, do you?"
"How can it be, uncle, we are just two foodies."
The old man was quickly persuaded by us. Of course, it was mainly because Huang Xiaolong took out a stack of money. The old man took us directly to the seaside, and then skillfully set up the pot. He took out the seafood and boiled it in white water. Many seafood I even named It can't be called, but the taste is really good.
Huang Xiaolong even bought some of the old man's wine, and chatted with the old man and drank it. Soon, our relationship with the old man went up a few steps, and we also knew the old man's name, Jiang Ada.
Huang Xiaolong's drinking capacity is probably natural, he drank until it was almost dark, and there was nothing wrong, I acted accordingly and pretended to be drunk, Jiang Ada also wobbled, and finally agreed to let us stay at his house at night, of course, The room fee still has to be paid.
Together with Huang Xiaolong, they brought me back to the room. After Jiang Ada repeatedly reminded us not to go out at night, he went back to the room by himself. Soon, there was a loud snoring sound.
I got up straight away, looked at Huang Xiaolong and whispered, "Are you alright?"
Huang Xiaolong's face was flushed, but his eyes were still clear. He waved his hands and said, "It's okay, but I guess the village is not peaceful at night. The old man has said no less than 10 times, let's go somewhere else at night. But as long as it's not like your hometown, I'm not afraid, hehe."
I glanced at Huang Xiaolong angrily and said, "What shall we do now?"
Huang Xiaoling said: "Sleep for a while first, and act later, go to each house to find out, I saw that they are all wooden houses with gaps, maybe you can see beautiful women."
I looked at Huang Xiaolong contemptuously, then took out my mobile phone to give Wu Jian and the others a brief message, and then opened QQ, but there was no information about He Xiaoru on QQ.
Although I pretended to be drunk, I also drank a lot. I lay on the bed with Huang Xiaolong and listened to the sea breeze and fell asleep. I don’t know how long it had passed. Suddenly there was the sound of the door opening outside. I was startled and hurriedly got up.
Huang Xiaolong was also very vigilant, got up almost at the same time as me, took a look at me, and walked to the window to observe.
I also walked over. The windows of the small fishing village are not made of glass, but made of bamboo. Even if you don’t open them, you can still see the outside through the tiny gaps in the bamboo. This also reduces the chance of being discovered by Huang Xiaolong and me. risk.
It’s just that the situation outside the fishing village is very strange now. Because of the relationship between transportation and fishing, the roads and docks in the fishing village are lit up, and they are still very bright. Under the lights, I can see all the doors of the houses are opened, and then all All the villagers are slowly walking out of the room, even children of a few years old are no exception.
People didn't have any conversations, as if they were sleepwalking. What made me feel even more uncomfortable was that a toddler who was obviously only able to crawl was slowly crawling out of the room and fell on the ground with his head broken. The adults around him didn't seem to know anything, and the child didn't cry, and continued to crawl, leaving a small bloodstain on the ground.
"What's going on?" I asked Huang Xiaolong in a low voice, but Huang Xiaolong made a silent gesture to me and continued to look outside.
The villagers slowly gathered at the pier. Everyone seemed to have their own place. When they arrived, they stood upright like sculptures. All the villagers stopped still, but nothing happened.
My eyes couldn't stand it, and when I was about to change my posture, the door of our room suddenly rang.
