The scammers called away one after another, and even until dark, no one got any information about the mysterious old man. This made Bai Yang a little upset. In addition to being annoyed by the annoying scammers, he was even more confused. , is it possible that the old man really doesn’t exist
So what I saw was a ghost
The magical three moons of this world hang above the dark sky. The soft moonlight fills the world, and the night is hazy. 』
"Master, is that old man important to you?"
Lin Bing'er gently massaged Bai Yang's head, which was resting on her chest, and asked.
"This is not a question of whether it is important or not, but I must find out whether he is a human or a ghost."
Bai Yang said weakly with his eyes closed.
Regarding the old man, Bai Yang was partly out of curiosity, and partly out of fear of unknown things in his heart. It seemed that only he could see the old man. What if the other man was a ghost that haunted him
"oh"
Lin Bing'er nodded, not knowing what to say. After all, the old man didn't seem to exist, and she couldn't give any substantive opinions or suggestions.
"Excuse me, is this portrait from your place?"
At this time, a questioning voice came from the door of the small courtyard.
"Yes, if you are a liar, please take five steps back, turn left, and go straight without seeing him off. I am in a bad mood, otherwise you will end up miserable."
Bai Yang said without looking at the other person.
There were so many liars on this day that Bai Yang almost gave up hope of getting information about the old man from others.
"Well, um, I'm not a liar."
At the door, a young man wearing a blue gown looked at Bai Yang and said in shock.
Yes, no liar would say that he was a liar. Bai Yang waved his hand and told the other party to leave. He was no longer interested in talking to the other party.
"The thing is like this, I am a painter. I saw many identical portraits appearing in the city today. They are almost like real people. I admire people who can draw so many identical paintings. I want to pay them a visit. I hope they can give me some advice. Looking at my painting skills, can you help me recommend that person?"
The young man at the door did not leave. Instead, he took a step forward and said in a very sincere manner.
Although the old man's portrait of Bai Yang was drawn with a gel pen, he used a sketching technique, which is almost the same as a black and white photo. This kind of painting technique is probably not available in the world. No, there are people who specialize in painting skills. Came to the door.
"So that's what happened. The person you said painted is in Liangshui Hutong in the east of the city. His name is Fu Yingji. If you go and ask about it, you will know. This person is incredible. His painting skills are superb. He can draw with just one breath. Several paintings like this came, and they were exactly the same. I was dumbfounded at the time. I asked him to draw a total of 10,000 such paintings. If you go find him now, he is probably not asleep yet. Go quickly, young man. , go chase your dreams..."
The other party was not here to cheat money. Bai Yang became a little interested and watched him open his mouth and talk nonsense. Anyway, it was idle. Bai Yang felt that he had such an obligation to point the lost boy to a dead end.
"Thank you for informing me, brother. If I can find this master of the response machine and get his advice, I will definitely come and thank you."
The other party said politely to Bai Yang, and then left happily...
Bai Yang is worried to death. This guy specializes in painting skills, so everyone is stupid, right? Can't you tell I lied to you? Return to the machine master? Go find a ghost.
No matter whether the young man could find the master of the response machine or not, Bai Yang stood up and stretched and said:
"Pack up, let's go back to Qinghe's place to have some food."
"Master, I can actually cook for you, and my skills are pretty good."
Lin Jie'er looked at Bai Yang and blinked her eyes at this time and said that she was trying to give herself a sense of presence. Bai Yang always pointed her to run errands. She wanted to show Bai Yang with practical actions that she could do something else besides running errands. …
"If you don't let Yu'er go instead of you next time I ask you to run errands, I will give you a chance to show off your cooking skills. Xiao Jie'er, although you sisters look exactly the same, it is impossible to fool the young master. Yes, after all, you have the smallest breasts, I saw through your trick at a glance, I just didn’t say it.”
Bai Yang watched her open her fingers and make a gesture of grabbing some kind of soft ball and laughed.
"Has the young master seen all this?"
Lin Jie'er's cheeks were slightly red and she asked a little unconvinced. She didn't know whether she was asking how Bai Yang knew that she had the smallest breasts among the four sisters, or whether she was asking about how she asked Lin Yu'er to help run errands.
Where are you? How many hairs do you have on your body? Ahem, Master, I know all about it...
"Brother Lei, are you leaving again? Is there anything else we can do to help you?"
At this time, Hong Yi and the others ran over and looked at Bai Yang and asked reluctantly.
This day was really like a dream for these little beggars who had no one to love them. Under the leadership of Bai Yang, they not only had a full meal and delicious candies, but now they have a complete house, although they have not been together for a long time. , but formed a very natural attachment to Baiyang.
"Be good, I will come to see you when I have time. Just like today, I came to see you not long ago, right? I'm afraid you will have a lot of things to help me with in the future. The most important thing now is to eat with a full stomach and sleep to grow taller and grow up. It will help me more”
Bai Yang touched their heads one by one and said with a smile.
"Well, Brother Lei, we will eat well and grow up quickly so that we can help you in the future."
All the naughty children nodded seriously.
"Well, I'm waiting for that day. Now I'm leaving first."
Waving his hands, Bai Yang took the four Bingqingyujie girls and walked out of the yard.
Seeing Bai Yang go out, a group of naughty children reluctantly chased him to the door. After confirming that Bai Yang was really leaving on the carriage, they all returned to the yard in despair.
"Hehe, I secretly hid a portrait of Brother Lei."
Hong Liuliu, the youngest among the naughty children, spoke. While speaking, he took out a folded portrait from his arms to show off to the others.
"Hey, I hid one too."
Hong Jiu also took out one from his arms and said with a smile.
"Me too"
“…”
A bunch of naughty kids, everyone took out a portrait in their arms and looked at the others and said.
"I thought this portrait was painted by Brother Lei, so I secretly hid one. Brother Lei was so kind to us. Keeping his things makes me feel that he is still with us. There is his breath on it. , if you don’t believe me, what’s your reason?”
Hong Qi lay on the ground, covered his face with the portrait and said.
"I secretly hid one because of what you said."
Hong Yi followed Hong Qi's example and lay down and said.
"Me too"
“…”
A bunch of naughty kids, because Bai Yang was kind to them, secretly hid a portrait that Bai Yang asked them to share with them. They felt that there was a breath of Bai Yang on it, and they kept it as if Bai Yang had always been there.
Little beggars who have no one to love them, they will become attached to them in every possible way if someone treats them well, which makes people feel a little sad.
"However, big brother's painting is really good. This old man seems to be alive. It is ten times better than the one on the wall."
Under the moonlight, Hong San held up the portrait and said.
"No, it's the same old man. The paintings on that wall are simply incomparable. The paintings by big brother are a hundred times better than the ones on that wall!"
Hong Wu glared at Hong San angrily and said.
"You are all wrong. Big brother's painting is a thousand times better than the one on the wall!"
Hong Ba glared at Hong San and said angrily.
"Yes, a thousand times!"
The youngest Hong Shiliu nodded vigorously.
"But, what is a thousand times?"
Hong Shixi made several gestures with his ten fingers, including his toes, but he still couldn't figure it out.
"Probably a lot?"
"Well, a thousand times is the most!"
The other children looked at each other and said that a thousand times was the maximum value they knew. Anyway, Bai Yang's painting was the best...
In the alley outside the yard, the coachman drove the carriage more than fifty meters out.
Bai Yang was originally lying on Lin Jie'er's lap with his eyes closed, but at this moment he suddenly opened his eyes with a strange look on his face.
"Scare, Master, why did you suddenly open your eyes?"
Lin Jie'er's face turned red and she patted her chest and said.
Bai Yang rested his head on her lap and closed his eyes. After all, they were all Bai Yang's people from now on. Then she looked at Bai Yang secretly and seriously. Bai Yang suddenly opened his eyes and startled her. She thought Bai Yang knew about her little moves. .
A girl was caught secretly sizing up a man, oh my, how embarrassing...
Bai Yang was stunned for a second, then raised his head, hummed at the slightly flustered Lin Jie'er's little mouth, then stood up and said:
"Stop the car and go back!"
Damn it, I couldn't find anything after wearing iron shoes, it took no effort at all, I waited for a whole day, I encountered countless scammers, I almost got deceived several times, but I didn't get any clues from the old man, but who the hell Do you know what those little brats actually know
After carefully recalling it, Bai Yang seemed to have never told them that he was looking for someone since he gave them the flyers. He just let them know. I guess those little guys just thought it was fun and didn't ask at all. Moreover, they were illiterate and couldn't read at all. I don’t understand the words on the portrait.
This thing is making a fuss...
If Bai Yang's five senses hadn't been extremely sharp, he wouldn't have been able to hear the mutterings of the children in the yard at this distance.
Bingqing Yujie and the others were almost used to Bai Yang's strange decisions from time to time, and they were not surprised at all when he suddenly proposed a U-turn.
After turning around and arriving at the entrance of the yard, Bai Yang couldn't wait to ask:
"Hong Yi, where have you seen the person in this portrait?"
"Huh? It's Brother Lei. You really didn't lie to us. You came to us so soon."
Hong Shiliu said in surprise.
"We don't have any of your paintings, Brother Zanglei. They're all finished."
Hong Yi hurriedly stuffed the portrait into his arms and pretended to be innocent.
The other children reacted and followed suit. Seeing Bai Yang, they were no longer surprised, but rather a little uneasy.
They thought that Bai Yang's return was because they didn't finish the flyers... well, the portrait thing.
What nonsense is this? Bai Yang was speechless. He calmed down and asked again:
"Tell Brother Lei, where have you seen the people in the portrait?"
"Have we never seen him?"
Hong Shiyi blinked.
Bai Yang understood instantly and was extremely confused in his heart.
Okay, your understanding is limited, can I put it another way
"Then where have you seen a portrait that's a thousand times worse than mine?"
… (To be continued.)
