Chapter 402: Eat and Drink
"You're hungry, aren't you?"
When Qi Tiezui saw his expression, he inexplicably felt alert and asked.
"what happened?"
The fat man took out his waist bag with a smile, and then started talking.
"Since meeting so many of you may be considered fate, why don't I treat you two to some good food."
Qi Tiezui beat him up and down carefully with some disbelief.
Then he turned around and looked at the dilapidated temple.
The fat man naturally felt a little strange when he saw his eyes, and sometimes he opened his mouth to ask.
"What's wrong? What's that look in your eyes?"
Then Qi Tiezui began to explain.
"Look at you, can you really treat us to a good meal?"
After all, they were all people living together in the dilapidated temple.
Moreover, he had seen before how this fat man was driven out.
If that’s the case, then where else can they go here to eat?
The fat man raised his hand, patted his chest confidently and spoke.
"Oh, don't worry about that. After all, I've been here for so many years. No matter what, there will always be people willing to take me in."
Now that he has said this, there is no way I can refuse.
If we continue to endure this, we will no longer be able to bear it.
That's why he nodded immediately.
"Okay, then this time it's all thanks to you."
Zhang Qihai, who was standing by, was ready to get up and go to the inn with him.
If you don’t eat, you won’t eat for free.
Besides, they hadn't eaten for a long time, and the people here were simply unwilling to do business with them.
Now that we have such an opportunity, we must seize it, otherwise our body will become unable to bear it.
Then they got up and followed the fat man to a relatively remote inn.
The fat man led them in through the back door.
He even turned around and spoke to them carefully.
"Be careful and don't let others see us, otherwise they will kick us out again."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui could only nod helplessly.
They have put a lot of thought into it to be able to eat these things now.
As the few people walked, they arrived at the kitchen.
Several women wearing aprons appeared before them.
One of them seemed to be over fifty years old, but he looked kind.
When she saw the fat man, she immediately stepped forward and spoke in front of them with some concern.
"I heard that you were kicked out again?"
The fat man was a little embarrassed and scratched the back of his head.
"Oh, ma'am, you know everyone has been very wary of this these days."
The old woman looked carefully in the direction of Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui, raised her hand, pointed at them and asked.
"What do you mean? Who are they? How did you bring them here?"
Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui then smiled very friendly.
"Hello, we are here to check something."
Zhang Qihai spoke very politely.
He couldn't tell that this old woman was not a bad person and that she looked quite kind.
If that's the case, then there's no way he would do anything else about it.
Then the fat man started talking in a low voice.
"These are my friends. We met because we were destined to meet. They came from outside and were excluded by everyone. No one wanted to let them eat. They had been hungry for a long time."
After hearing this, the old woman finally understood what was going on.
She immediately brought a few people to a private room.
"You guys order first. This is exactly what happened during this period. Many things have happened that made us do this. We don't usually do this. I hope you can understand."
Although they didn't know what had happened, since the old woman had said this, they couldn't say anything else.
Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui could only nod slightly.
"it does not matter."
Then the old woman left.
After they casually ordered a few side dishes, the fat man shook his head helplessly and started to explain to them.
"In the past, the people here were simple, warm and hospitable, but after some things happened, the people here became like this now. They don't like outsiders to come here at all."
Upon hearing this, Qi Tiezui's face naturally showed some interest.
He had indeed heard of Baiqiao Village before.
He heard that the people here are really friendly, not like they are now. He doesn't quite understand why it has become like this.
"What on earth happened? Why did everyone suddenly change like this?"
Naturally, he was quite surprised by this and wanted to understand it clearly.
After hearing this, the fat man poured a few cups of tea and continued to explain.
"Some time ago, the situation was turbulent, so the Han people came to our Baiqiao Village and caused a lot of trouble for the people in our Baiqiao Village. It is precisely because of this that everyone is becoming more and more disgusted with outsiders and is becoming more and more repulsive to them."
It turns out it was because of this reason.
After he explained it clearly, everyone finally understood.
Soon, the dishes were served.
Several people were almost drooling as they looked at the table full of dishes.
After all, they hadn't eaten for a long time, and now they finally had such an opportunity, so they were naturally very happy.
Qi Tiezui immediately picked up the chopsticks and began to eat voraciously.
Zhang Qihai on the side naturally would not waste any more time.
Eat quickly so you have enough energy to continue checking the following things.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Zhang Qihai raised his head, looked at the fat man and asked in a serious tone.
"We want to ask you about someone. Do you know Zhang Dafoye?"
Upon hearing this, some doubt appeared in the fat man's eyes. He tilted his head and thought carefully for a while before speaking.
"I seem to have heard of him before, but is he here with us now? Hasn't he always been in Changsha City? What happened? What is your relationship with him?"
He opened his mouth and asked a series of questions.
Chapter 403 Han Leader
Hearing that he had asked so many questions, Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui looked at each other.
After they exchanged glances with each other, Qi Tiezui turned around and spoke to the fat man.
"Oh, since I'm so lucky to tell you, it's actually okay, as long as you don't tell anyone else."
When the fat man heard this, his eyes naturally showed some interest immediately. He nodded confidently, raised his hand, patted his chest and spoke.
"Of course. Don't worry about my character. I will never tell anyone no matter what."
Then Qi Tiezui spoke.
"The Zhang Dafoye we are looking for is indeed the Zhang Dafoye from Changsha City. See if there is any way to find him. He is really important to us now."
Upon hearing this, the fat man's expression became a little more serious.
He tilted his head and thought carefully, then nodded and spoke.
"There is indeed a way, but it may not be a very good way."
Now, for Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui, as long as there is a way, it would be a great thing.
So at this moment they naturally asked with some excitement.
"What can we do? No matter how difficult it is, we will try our best."
After hearing this, the fat man touched his chin and began to speak.
"In fact, there is a Han leader in our Baiqiao Village. He has many Han people working in the fields. He knows a lot about the Han people. Maybe he knows the person you just wanted to find."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui were naturally very happy.
They have been working so hard for so long and originally thought that it might take a lot of time to get relevant information, but they didn't expect that they now have a solution.
This is naturally a good thing for them.
Qi Tiezui patted his thigh happily while eating and spoke.
"Great, then we should go and seek refuge with this Han leader now. We are not welcome here anyway, and we can barely even get food."
Zhang Qihai thought about it carefully for a while and felt that the method he mentioned was indeed useful.
