Chapter 28: The Past (1)

Wang Cuiyu's thoughts drifted far away.

When several of their female classmates entered Jincun, they were all curious to death, and they couldn't stop looking at the ancient buildings in the village that were said to be hundreds of years old.

They don't understand the importance of well-preserved history, and when they see the old wooden buildings, they all have a kind of pride in being modern city people, as if they represent the advanced and civilized, above this kind of village dwelling close to the primitive society that is not connected to the outside world, and the eyes around them unconsciously carry pity and criticism for the backward areas, and they are even more sympathetic to the female classmate of Jincun who led the way, and feel that it is a wise move to leave Jincun to study in the outside world, and they have persuaded her not to return to Jincun after graduation。

Before they could go deeper and farther, Mo Zhi was called by the adults to have something to do, and when they left, they were asked to wait where they were and not to walk around, and she soon came back and took them to the ancestral hall to eat a big pot of vegetables.

As a result, a few of their female classmates mistakenly thought it was a polite word of hospitality, and with the confidence in knowing the way to the village, they felt that there was no problem in walking around and then returning the same way, so they quickly reached an agreement and decided to follow the road under their feet.

As they walked, they discovered a serious problem.

When you go forward, you only see the direction of one road, and you don't need to choose.

When they wanted to turn back, they saw more than two or three roads, and they didn't even know which way they came from.

It's just such a plausible guess, moving forward and backward, they are completely lost!

Eventually, they decided to ask someone for directions.

Who knows, in the huge village, half of the villagers are gone.

They panicked all at once.

A female classmate named Yang Jing was so anxious that she cried: "Did Mo Zhi deliberately trick us here?"

As soon as she said this, several other female classmates seemed to understand something:

"It's so remote and poor here, a man will definitely not be able to marry a daughter-in-law!"

"Did Mo Zhi plan it a long time ago?"

"It's over, we can't get out!"

"I'm so good to Mozhi, why should she do this to us?"

"Woo, our family doesn't know I'm here, what if they can't find us?"

All kinds of bad premonitions and tragic endings poured out.

The more they talked, the more they felt that it was very real, and the more they analyzed, the more terrifying they felt: now that the traffickers have almost been hit to extinction, and the people of Jincun can't buy daughters-in-law, they find another way to let the girls in the village go outside to study, and then make a few female classmates and then bring them to the village in the name of visiting and playing.

In despair, Wang Cuiyu was still in a hurry: "Don't cry, you can't get out if you cry, let's find a way to run." ”

She still remembers that when she came, there was a towering banyan forest at the entrance of the village, and Mo Zhi proudly said that this banyan forest was originally a tree, and this forest was actually a tree growing slowly.

"Do you remember? Mozhi said that the banyan grove was already the tallest place in the village, and the old trees were three or four stories tall. Let's stand on a high place and look for that tree, and then we can walk to the entrance of the village?"

A few of them suddenly had a backbone, and with Wang Cuiyu's words, they looked for a way out in the village in a hurry.

There are ladders in the courtyards of the villagers, and they are afraid to go in.

There were benches in the houses with open gates, and they didn't dare to move out and step on their feet, so they hid far away.

It's as if as soon as they step into any private space, they will be imprisoned here forever.

Suddenly, Yang Jing didn't know what she saw, she fell to the ground with her feet on her feet, hugged her head and cried and shouted, "Ahh ”

In the moment of escape, falling down means defeat.

Wang Cuiyu hurriedly reached out to pull Yang Jing's arm, only to find that there was a simple pavilion next to it, and there was a figure in it.

She stubbornly said hello, only to find out that it was a statue.

It was a clay statue painted with colored paint, which had been exposed to the wind and sun, and the paint on its body had peeled off a lot, except for the eyeballs, which were shiny and shiny, like the eyes of a living person, and could rotate with the movement of the people next to them.

No wonder Yang Jing was so frightened that she was paralyzed and couldn't even drag it.

Wang Cuiyu was stunned, wiped a cold sweat, and just wanted to comfort Yang Jing, when she suddenly found that this pavilion was the only place she could step on, and immediately put her palms together and prayed silently to the statue: God, Niangniang, please let us go, when I go out, I will definitely reshape your golden body for you.

Then, she had the courage to step on the railing on the edge of the pavilion and look around, found the direction of the banyan forest, and finally ran to the big banyan tree with everyone.

Who knows, they encountered the same problem again, there is only one intersection into the village, when they want to go out, there are several paths in the banyan forest, and they can't see the outside world at the end of the path.

Fortunately, when they couldn't find where the exit was, Zhao Qingshan rode out of the village on a bicycle, with two large baskets tied to the left and the right of the tailframe, dripping water all the way.

After Zhao Qingshan turned the corner and disappeared, Wang Cuiyu and the others dared to run out of the tree hole, followed the direction of the water stain, passed through the woods, and ran out of Jincun.

Later, several of their female classmates got on a minibus and returned to school before dark.

Later, Mozhi did not return to school.

The head teacher also came to ask them if a few of their female classmates who had a good relationship with Mo Zhi knew about Mo Zhi's illness?

As soon as several of their female classmates ran out of Jincun, they had secretly sworn that they would forget this trip to Jincun as if it were a dream, and no one was allowed to mention it again.

Therefore, they shook their heads and said that they did not know.

The head teacher also regretted that he could get his graduation certificate after finishing the exam in half a semester, and now he can only get a graduation certificate, and the first female high school graduate in Jincun is so wasted.

When their class photo was taken at graduation, Mo Zhi was still absent.

This experience, if nothing happened later, Wang Cuiyu would slowly not be able to remember.

After graduating from high school, Wang Cuiyu was not admitted to university, so she worked as a salesperson in a department store, working during the day and going home at night to help Wang Enzheng process and sort out the various herbs he collected.

Wang Enzheng often goes out to collect medicine, and when she leaves, she takes care of herself for half a month or even longer, and by the way, she receives patients who come to Wang Enzheng to seek medical treatment.

Until one day, Zhao Qingshan came to the door.
