Chapter 25: Hu Bayi Comes, Tomb Robbers Composed of Three
At the train station entrance, Zhang Ziyang looked at the old-fashioned iron train in front of him and felt a little emotional.
Three days ago, Wang Kaixuan received a letter from Hu Bayi, saying that he had been kicked back by the army because he had killed prisoners on the battlefield. He was tired of the regular life of going to work and getting off work, so he declined the work arranged by the army and came here to rely on Wang Kaixuan.
Zhang Ziyang and Wang Kaixuan stood side by side, waiting for Wang Kaixuan's old man, Hu Bayi, to arrive.
Over the years, although the two of them were busy with their own things, Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi had always maintained a letter exchange. Wang Kaixuan had long informed Hu Bayi about Zhang Ziyang's matter through letters.
Hu Bayi also wanted to get to know such a person in his reply, so Wang Kaixuan had dragged Zhang Ziyang along to pick him up today.
"Priest Zhang, let me tell you, this old brother of mine is not an ordinary person either. Back then, he was also a person who went to the battlefield and experienced life and death. He is also a good person. I believe that you will definitely get along!”Wang Kaixuan lit a cigarette and introduced Hu Bayi to Zhang Ziyang while puffing out smoke.
"I also want to get to know Hu Bayi, who you keep talking about. I'm very interested in him!”Zhang Ziyang nodded and said. He had indeed wanted to befriend Hu Bayi for a long time. After all, Zhang Ziyang had been drooling over the book in his hand for a long time.
"Aiya, it's already so late. Why hasn't the train arrived yet?”Time slowly passed, and Wang Kaixuan gradually became impatient. He kept walking around the platform.
"Hehe, brother, calm down. The train should be arriving soon!”
"Wuuu…Wuuu…"
With a long whistle, an old-fashioned green train slowly drove into the station. After the train stopped, the passengers got off the train one after another and hugged their family and friends who came to pick them up. It was not easy to travel far in this era.
Suddenly, Wang Kaixuan's eyes lit up as he walked in the crowd. His fat body tried to squeeze forward. Zhang Ziyang looked in the direction he was walking. A tall man in a blue coat and a green backpack was getting off the train. It was Hu Bayi.
Wang Kaixuan arrived in front of Hu Bayi in a few steps and slapped him on the shoulder. However, Fatty didn't do it lightly or heavily. He slapped Hu Bayi and made him stagger. At the same time, he muttered,"You brat, long time no see!”
"I'll pick you up, the pagoda to suppress the river demon!" Hu Bayi was stunned, and he agreed.
Zhang Ziyang knew that it was the entrance to the plot, but he didn't care at all. He just kept sizing up the legendary Hu Bayi. He was tall and straight, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. His face had a touch of hardship, but his eyes were bright and bright, with a trace of wisdom that could see through everything.
"As expected of the Child of the Plane of this world. You can't be underestimated!”Zhang Ziyang came to a conclusion in his heart.
At this time, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan had also finished catching up. Then, the two of them walked towards Zhang Ziyang.
"Come, Old Hu, let me introduce you. This is Zhang Ziyang, the Taoist priest I mentioned to you. He's an amazing Taoist master!”
"Priest Zhang, this is my good brother, Old Hu!”Wang Kaixuan seemed to be in a good mood as he enthusiastically introduced the two of them.
"I'm Zhang Ziyang, I've heard a lot about you.”Zhang Ziyang greeted.
"You're too polite. I'm also very impressed by Taoist Priest Zhang. If it wasn't for Taoist Priest Zhang, this fatty might have suffered a lot. As a friend, I'd like to thank you!”Hu Bayi said sincerely.
"Hey, I say, stop being so wishy-washy. We're brothers. Why are you pretending to be civilized here?”Wang Kaixuan pursed his lips and interrupted in a bad mood.
"Hehe, then let's not be polite. Let's hurry back and welcome Hu Bayi!”Zhang Ziyang laughed. He knew that Hu Bayi was a cheerful and straightforward person. The more polite he was, the more uncomfortable he felt.
"Okay, let's go home quickly. But Priest Zhang, you can just call me Old Hu from now on. Calling me Hu Bayi is too distant!”
"Right, right, right, right. Just call me Fatty in the future. We'll call you Lord Zhang. Don't call me Brother Wang.”Wang Kaixuan chimed in. He had long been annoyed by Zhang Ziyang calling him " Brother Wang ".
"Alright, Old Hu, Lord Zhang, let's go back!”
At this point, the three tomb raiders had successfully gathered today, but there was an additional variable, Zhang Ziyang.
Riding on Wang Kaixuan's old three-wheeled motorcycle, it took a lot of effort to get home and settle Hu Bayi down. Hu Bayi lived in Wang Kaixuan's house, while Zhang Ziyang found the landlord and rented a new room next door. The three of them became neighbors.
After resting for a while, the three of them went to the Old Beijing Shabu-shabu Restaurant in Dongsi to welcome Hu Bayi. As soon as the three of them entered, they saw Big Golden Tooth talking to a few foreigners at a table.
"Hey, Big Golden Tooth, this grandson, is scamming people again. However, this time, he's scamming foreigners and not the people of Heaven!”Wang Kaixuan said in a bad mood, obviously recalling his experience of almost being cheated.
"Hehe, that's how he makes a living. He's much better at scamming a foreigner than scamming you. I think he can earn at least ten thousand yuan from today's vote!”Zhang Ziyang was also a person who knew his stuff. He glanced at the items in their hands and explained.
"Heh, this line of work is too easy to earn money. Even if I work hard all day for a year, I won't be able to earn so much!”
"Fatty, is that the big golden tooth you mentioned?”Hu Bayi, who had been silent all this while, spoke up.
"Yeah, it's this guy! This guy tried to trick me last time. Fortunately, Lord Zhang was here. Otherwise, he would have succeeded.”
"Stay away from him in the future. You can't beat him!”Hu Bayi couldn't help but remind him.
It had to be said that Hu Bayi's ability to judge people was still very accurate. With Big Golden Tooth's slippery character, if he wanted to plot against Fatty, Fatty really couldn't beat him. However, Big Golden Tooth wasn't the kind of person who would kill the goose that laid the golden eggs. He was still able to do it when it came to friendship.
"Waiter, give me ten plates of mutton and six bottles of beer first!”The three of them took their seats one by one. Wang Kaixuan shouted at the top of his voice.
"Hey, Fatty, are you the reincarnation of a hungry ghost? Why are you shouting so much at once?”Hu Bayi teased Fatty. The relationship between the two had reached the point where no words could hurt their feelings.
The steaming hot pot was boiling. The three of them greeted each other and raised their glasses to drink. Then, they began to eat. During the meal, Hu Bayi talked about his experiences in the past few years. Zhang Ziyang also listened to him. Every time Hu Bayi talked about the thrilling and exciting things, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. His experience could be described as ups and downs. It was a narrow escape. The few of them had a good time eating.
