Chapter 72: The Road Encounter
"Ah, ah, mine... is not a local, alas!" The old beggar sighed as he said that.
When Wang Ke saw the old beggar sighing, the kindness in his heart was hooked up again. "Uncle, have you encountered something difficult?"
"Yes, I came from Wu... Wutai Mountain and passed by here. I used up the food... I even stolen my luggage. I was stolen by someone. Now I am the only one who drinks... water."
"Uncle, where are you going?"
"I want to go, go...Yangzi Province, it's cold...The land is frozen, the road is long, I, this...Old bone is probably going to die in a foreign land." The old beggar's face was full of vicissitudes, and two tears fell from his eyes as he said, and he was very sad.
When Wang Ke thought, it would cost nearly 30 yuan to go to Yangzi Province, and the train would take more than 20 hours, and there would be a mid-range transfer to the middle. No wonder no one can help.
Thinking of this, Wang Ke asked: "Didn't you find a police station?"
"I don't even have an identity... I have it, how to find it." The old beggar obviously had already found it, and was disheartened at this time.
Wang Ke thought about it and said that he had just borrowed 100 yuan from the sergeant, and just bought a train ticket and spent 6 yuan. Today, the round trip was up to 20 yuan, and the money was deducted for the instructor to repair the watch. It was estimated that there would be 50 yuan left.
"Uncle, I'll give you fifty yuan. You can go home early! After you buy the ticket, the remaining twenty yuan is just for your use on the way. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and it's cold and it's not a big deal for you to wander at this train station." Wang Ke took out five ten yuan of RMB from his pocket and handed it to the old beggar.
The old beggar opened his mouth wide and was stunned. He didn't believe that the young PLA soldier in front of him actually gave him fifty yuan at once.
Wang Ke saw that there were not a few teeth left in the old beggar's mouth. He had just swallowed two steamed buns. After thinking about it, he felt that it was really not easy for this old beggar. He thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and took out ten yuan from his pocket.
"Uncle, I'll give you another ten yuan. You can take this sixty yuan and buy more hot and soft food on the road."
The old beggar shivered and could no longer speak. He took the money and was about to kneel down, which scared Wang Ke.
"Uncle, uncle, this is impossible!" Wang Ke helped the old beggar up.
At this time, there were a few people in the car room. Maybe they thought the old beggar was a little dirty, so they sat far away and looked at them silently.
The old beggar stood up, reached out and took out the copper bowl that had just drunk water, and handed it to Wang Ke; "Little... Comrade, I don't, I can't ask for your money for vain... Money, I'm giving you this bowl... a souvenir."
"Uncle, please keep it for drinking water on the road." It's not that Wang Ke didn't want it, the copper bowl was too dirty and black on it. The old beggar probably felt that the copper bowl was a bit dirty, so he picked up the corner of his gray robe, pinched the copper bowl and turned it. The copper bowl immediately became much cleaner, and some places were shining.
"Little comrade, you and I have... destiny, and in the future... if there is... chance, we, we... meet with this bowl, then... you don't want it, and I will return it again!"
Wang Ke couldn't bear to smear the old beggar's wishes, so he took them over. "Okay, uncle, I'm also from Yangzi Province, and I'm also a fellow villager. I'll accept the copper bowl first."
