Chapter 558 Drinking with Your Ears
Xiao Bing left the club, found a deserted place, took off his mask, and put on new clothes. Then he took a car to the village in the city where Ear was.
It is more than three hours away from Kyoto. After the car drove into the village in the city, Xiao Bing paid the fare and walked in alone.
Er Er lives in a small wooden house in a very deserted suburb of a village in the city.
Xiao Bing walked to the door of the wooden house and knocked on the door. There was no movement inside.
Xiao Bing was hesitating whether to open the door and go in or wait outside for a while when he heard two coughing sounds from far behind him. Xiao Bing turned around and saw Er Er leaning on a cane, trembling towards He came over here, with his white hair shawl, scattered and uncombed, and holding a cane in his hand. He looked no different from an ordinary droopy old man. Xiao Bing walked over quickly.
"Master, you are here."
Xiao Bing smiled, held his ears, and walked towards the wooden house. For some reason, Xiao Bing could vaguely feel that the moment he held his ears, there was a slight psychological fluctuation in his ears. Normally, his ears The emotions of the ear are always undetectable to you and always calm. At this moment, the emotion of the ear suddenly becomes excited for a moment, but then becomes calm again.
Xiao Bing helped him into the wooden house, and then helped him sit on a chair. Xiao Bing sat on another chair, looked at his ears, and asked with a smile: "The old gentleman is going shopping."
"Well, let's go for a walk in the village." Er Er picked up the comb on the table and combed his hair back, revealing his entire face, the face without Ear.
"Master, are you here to receive a mission?"
Xiao Bing was surprised and said: "How do you know?"
Ear's voice laughed hoarsely: "Those friends of yours, one was called Erhuo and the other was called Zhan Hongyan, have all disappeared now. I think you must want to receive tasks to train them."
Xiao Bing admired Er Er's intelligence from the bottom of his heart and said: "Yes, their strength is still very lacking. I want to hone them more, but they are not needed for the time being. I want to find a task suitable for showing off my beauty." , let other members of Longmen accompany him to complete it."
"That's the best. Zhan Hongyan used to do a job as a killer. I have a task here that is particularly suitable for her to complete." Er Er took out a piece of paper. The paper was white and had a person's photo and personal information printed on it. , he handed it to Xiao Bing and said, "The person in the photo is the Burmese drug lord Kangtai. Someone offered a high price for Kangtai's head. Because this Kangtai is very difficult to deal with, he specially found our Longmen."
Xiao Bing took the piece of paper in his hand and asked: "Who is the employer reliable?"
"I'm not familiar with the employer, but the middleman is very reliable. We have cooperated with Longmen before, and the cooperation was very pleasant."
Xiao Bing nodded and said: "I don't know who the employer is, but it's easy to analyze. There are just a few situations. One is that people within Kangtai want to kill Kangtai and then take over themselves, or other big drug lords." , want to destroy Kangtai and gain market share. But no matter which situation it is, it has nothing to do with us. The big drug lord himself is worthy of death, and this task can be taken on. But although Kangtai is not the biggest drug lord in Myanmar Although he is a well-known drug lord, he is probably very dangerous."
Er Er smiled and said: "It's not dangerous, so how can it be considered training?"
Xiao Bing collected the information and asked: "Are there any other tasks?"
Er Er said seriously: "Now the mission must be carefully selected, otherwise we will be easily targeted by the Buddhists. Once something goes wrong, people are likely to die. Each of the eight generals of Longmen is a rare one." None of the top masters I have encountered will die."
Xiao Bing said: "I understand."
"Well, you just received the mission a few days ago. This is the only new mission for now. You can go back and make arrangements. Master, do you have anything else to do now?"
"There's nothing else." Xiao Bing looked into his ears and said, "I just want to chat with you now."
A strange light flashed through Er Er's eyes, and he asked: "Chat with me."
"Yes." Xiao Bing looked at this simple wooden house and asked, "Are you still used to living here?"
"I'm used to this personality. As I get older, I like to be quiet. If I live in a place that's too good, I won't get used to it."
Xiao Bing sighed and said: "I think your body and bones are only average now, and you lack people to take care of you."
"Don't worry." Er Er smiled, but the sound of laughter sounded weak, "I can't die yet, at least I can live for another ten or twenty years. Although my ears are gone, it will not delay my ability to see What are you talking about, but I can feel everything around me more clearly, and feel it with my heart."
Xiao Bing was taken aback and asked: "Old sir, when you talk to me on weekdays, you always read lips."
Er Er smiled miserably and said, "It took me a long time to learn lip reading."
Xiao Bing frowned and asked, "Why are your ears missing? Tell me who cut off your ears and I can help you kill him."
"There will be a day." After Er Er finished speaking, he said in a calm tone, "You don't have to care about me anymore. The important thing is that our Longmen will continue to develop and grow stronger. I'm waiting for you to become more and more powerful." The stronger he gets, the more powerful he becomes, and one day he will be stronger than Mr. Buddha from the Buddhist sect."
Xiao Bing said with great confidence: "There will be a day."
I don't know why, Xiao Bing can feel that there are many secrets hidden in this ear. He doesn't want to be discovered or known by others, but these are not important. As long as he knows that the ear is his own, it will be fine. But Just like what Xiao Bing said, if one day he knows why his ears are missing, Xiao Bing will definitely avenge him and kill that person.
Xiao Bing glanced at the time and said: "I won't leave today. I will have dinner with you first, and then find a small hotel in the village to stay in the evening. By the way, what food do I have at home now?"
"Egg fried rice."
Without saying a word, Xiao Bing stood up and said to Er Er, "Mr. Er Er, please wait a moment. I'll be back soon."
After saying that, Xiao Bing walked out.
Looking at Xiao Bing's leaving figure, Er Er's eyes flashed with some complicated colors, and finally his eyes fell on a mirror on the wall. In the mirror, he looked at his own appearance and the smooth face on his face. The side face without ears muttered to himself with a hoarse voice: "In comparison, my hatred is very important or my ears are very important."
After saying that, Er Er withdrew his gaze again and continued to look at the door.
Because he couldn't hear, he could only see with his eyes and feel with his heart. He seemed to be afraid that when Xiao Bing came in, he wouldn't know and he would miss it.
Xiao Bing left soon and came back again. When he came back again, Xiao Bing was carrying a few big snow-white steamed buns, a roast chicken, and a bottle of white wine.
Looking at what Xiao Bing was carrying, Er Er was stunned. Xiao Bing sat down on the chair and said with a smile: "Mr. Er Er."
Er Er suddenly said with some excitement: "Don't call me Mr. Er, call me Uncle Er Er."
"Okay." Xiao Bing felt warm in his heart and said with a smile, "It sounds more friendly to call you uncle, so I'll call you Uncle Er. Uncle Er, I'll drink with you. Welcome."
"Welcome, welcome. You are welcome to come drink with me at any time, but old man, I still hope to see you become stronger soon, so that no one dares to bully you, and no one will ever be able to threaten you."
Xiao Bing asked with a smile: "Am I not strong enough now?"
Er Er said with a serious face: "Do you think you can protect everyone now? No one in the world can threaten you or everyone around you. If you think so, then you are strong enough."
Xiao Bing sighed and said: "Okay, not yet. But becoming stronger doesn't happen in a day or two. Come on, let's eat meat."
Xiao Bing stood up, went to the dish rack to get bowls, chopsticks and cups, and took two plates. Then he tore the roast chicken into pieces and put them on the plate. He opened the wine bottle and poured it for himself and his ear. A glass of white wine.
Xiao Bing sat down, looked at Er Er, raised his glass, and said: "Uncle Er Er, I'm here to toast you with this glass of wine. I don't want to say thank you to you. I just call you uncle. I am yours." Junior, I should respect you."
"Okay, okay." My ears liked Xiao Bing's words very much, and his cloudy eyes even glowed with light. He grabbed the wine glass with his dry hands, clinked the glasses with Xiao Bing, and said in a low and hoarse voice, " Let’s drink this.”
The two drank the wine in the cup. Although the cup was not big, it was still a lot of wine. After finishing the drink, they coughed twice, and finally said with emotion: "It's been a long time since I drank like this."
Today's ears behave very differently from those in the past. Normally, their ears look like still water without any ripples. Today, his mood is obviously much more excited. When Xiao Bing was with him before, He never let Xiao Bing capture any different emotions. Of course, Xiao Bing and he had never had so much contact before, let alone eating together.
Xiao Bing took a piece of meat, smiled at Er Er and said, "Uncle Er Er, you can eat it too."
"Yeah." Er Er also grabbed a piece of chicken and ate it in big mouthfuls. While eating, he looked at Xiao Bing, his eyes never leaving Xiao Bing's face.
After finishing a piece of chicken, Xiao Bing helped Er Er pour wine and filled his own wine glass. Xiao Bing said curiously: "Uncle Er Er, I never quite understand why you want to help me. Why are you so nice to me?"
Er Er said: "As I said before, maybe there is a fate between us. This fate will never be sorted out."
