Chapter 488 The Alley Old Man ([-])

The old master Xiao Jialin introduced lived in an alley near Xidan.

Detour from the bustling Xidan and turn into a small alley, the sound of heavy traffic is isolated from this world.

According to the address given by Xiao Jialin, the two walked tens of meters along the alley, entered Xixie Street, and finally came to No. 42 Xixie Street. Some yellowed leaves exude a faint golden light.

"This old man's name is Hong Mu. I heard that my ancestor is a child of the Eight Banners. I don't know if it's true or not. Mr. Hong is now focusing on the breakfast business."

Xu Qingru introduced the information she knew to Ling Yue, and Ling Yue frowned: "Breakfast business?"

"Well, the old man's children are all out of town, and his wife has passed away. He sells breakfast in this alley every morning. I heard that his temper is a bit weird. We may not be able to get his help so smoothly."

Xu Qingru continued to share information.

Ling Yue nodded and straightened his body.He tugged at the creased corners of his clothes and paid attention to his appearance.

Xu Qingru smiled, walked over, and saw that the door of the old house was ajar, and there were some noises coming from the yard, but she didn't dare to go in rashly, stood at the door and knocked, but no one answered.

Ling Yue couldn't bear it anymore, stepped forward and knocked harder on the door, but there was still no response.

"Why don't you just break in?" Ling Yue suggested.

When Xu Qingru was still hesitating, he heard a voice full of anger: "Hi! See if I don't strip you, little bastard!"

Immediately afterwards, there was a "bang" on the door, and the door of the house opened in response. Both Xu Qingru and Ling Yue took a step back in fright, but a colorful rooster flew in front of them, clucking, and went straight to the two of them. .

When it was too late, Ling Yue quickly reached out, grabbed the rooster, folded its two wings, and held it firmly in his hand.

"Are you okay?" Ling Yue looked at Xu Qingru.Just kidding, if the chairman's wife is harmed by this chicken, how will he explain to the chairman when he goes back?

Xu Qingru shook his head, and saw an old man with gray hair wearing rough cloth trousers and a worn-out leather jacket, stepping on a cotton mop, stepping out of the door, and seeing the two of them, he let out a "huh" and then yelled: "You two little bastards!" , what are you doing stealing my chicken?"

The two sweated profusely.

"Old man, we didn't steal it. Your chicken ran out and we caught it for you." Ling Yue explained.

"Old man? Am I very old?"

Angrily, the old man snatched Ling Yue's cock from Ling Yue's hand, turned around and walked towards the yard, raising his hand to pat the rooster while walking: "I told you to run around, I will stew you tonight."

The cock crowed.

Xu Qingru and Ling Yue looked at each other, and they were about to step into the door to chase the old man, but the old man immediately turned his head and scolded, "Who allowed you to come in?"

The two were startled, quickly retracted their legs, and stood at the door, at a loss.

After a while, the old man stuffed the male back into the chicken coop and turned to the yard. When he saw the two of them, he blew his beard and stared: "What are you doing there? Is it fun? Get out if you don't come in."

Xu Qingru and Ling Yue looked at each other again, thinking tacitly in their hearts, it seems that it is not so easy to get any clues from this old man.

The two walked in cautiously and walked up to the old man, still at a loss.
