Chapter Ninety-Seven: Encounter at the River Border
Li Tianchou was surprised when he heard this, the person who must kill Uncle Geng was not Biao Qi? With such a deep hatred, this person should also be very famous, how could he never have heard of it during this time in the car dealership?
He suddenly remembered that in the car last night, Uncle Geng had mentioned a person's name, which seemed to be Tang Shiming, which was a very unfamiliar name, and Li Tianchou was very sure that he had heard of it for the first time. When he was stunned, Uncle Geng had already gone out to leave.
That's it, whether it's Biao Qi or Tang Shiming. That's a grievance between others, and I think so much for others for no reason, and I'm really full.
But Li Tianchou at least figured out one thing, the total outbreak of grievances between Uncle Geng and his old enemies was caught up by himself. Xie Fushun is undoubtedly a key, and when he stood up for Wu Tianbao, it was when this powder keg exploded, and it was not very important whether he used it or not. Even if he didn't save Wu Tianbao that day, Peng Weihua would probably have to tie up Xie Fushun.
After figuring out this layer, Li Tianchou suddenly had a feeling of deflatment, it seemed that it was really luck. There was still an Uncle Geng in his heart to find resentment, but now he has no direction for this, and he is very depressed and lies on the bed again.
"Dangdang" two symbolic knocks on the door, without waiting for an answer, Xiao Song had already flashed in with a plate, "Oh, why are you still sleeping?"
When Li Tianchou heard the sound, he sat up from the bed with an embarrassed face, "I didn't sleep, I was thinking about something" Seeing the rich food on the plate, he couldn't help but look embarrassed, "I just ate it, and I'm still full." You're ......."
"It's two o'clock in the afternoon, and you just eat?" Xiao Song shouted dissatisfiedly, put down the plate and turned around, and suddenly became happy again, "My uncle agreed that we can go around the neighborhood in a while." Hurry up and eat, don't waste time. ”
This is good news, looking at Xiao Song's expectant look, he really wants to go out for a walk, it is better than being bored in the room in a daze. So I had to fight my spirit and make it difficult. Under Xiao Song's strict supervision, he was really able to hold on.
The two went to see Qi Baozhu first, and there was actually a young man in the room who didn't know him, who was sitting on the side dozing off, it should have been sent by Uncle Hai to take care of Qi Baozhu's daily life.
After the two words of greeting, there was no longer any language exchange between the three of them, even Xiao Song had nothing to say. Qi Baozhu's face was extremely indifferent, and his eyes burned with hatred and anger, and he didn't hide it at all, it seemed that he already knew the news of the misfortune of the two little brothers.
Coming out of Qi Baozhu's room, the two of them were also in a bad mood, and any words of comfort looked very pale in front of this arrogant and eccentric man, and his heart knot was probably only four words: "blood debt and blood repayment".
When I went downstairs to the hall, only Ah Hao and a few young people were left enjoying the coolness, and the others went out to do their business as in the morning. After Li Tianchou said hello politely, he and Xiao Song walked out of the courtyard.
When he got outside, Li Tianchou found that Uncle Hai's courtyard did not seem to be isolated, and there was a large circle of walls behind the courtyard, and it was not clear what it was used for, there was a lot of yellow sand piled up outside, and he guessed that it was probably a sand field.
The two of them have no purpose, Xiao Song chose to go north, because there are green trees there, Li Tianchou has no objection, in his opinion, it is the same in any direction, it is good to be able to relax.
A dirt road zigzagged a long way, and Li Tianchou found that he couldn't touch a figure at all. This is not a village, except for the place where Uncle Hai lives and the large circle of walls, there are hardly any decent buildings around, and there are dense bushes and low trees everywhere. As far as the eye can see, the water and sky at the far end of the verdant green are colorful, and it seems that there is really a big river.
Xiao Song was very excited, shouting that he wanted to go to the river, and pulled Li Tianchou all the way forward. Li Tianchou also suddenly felt a sense of interest in his heart, and the two of them quickened their pace, and then walked to a large area of woods, a very beautiful scenery, and the mood was really much more relaxed.
As soon as he entered the woods, Li Tianchou felt that there was something strange around him, and he couldn't tell the taste. He was very alert and pricked up his ears to listen to his surroundings, there was no special sound, but his heart was always itchy, as if he was being stared at by a pair of eyes. Xiao Song didn't realize it, and still urged Li Tianchou to go faster.
The trees in the forest are dense, there is no road, but you can see unknown wildflowers everywhere, Xiao Song picked while walking, and after a while, there was a lot in his hand, and the flowers were green and beautiful. In this situation, Li Tianchou suddenly remembered that in May every year in his hometown, the rhododendrons bloom all over the mountains, and the little sister often picks a large handful, and she is as happy as this.
"Let's go, thinking about something?" Xiao Song glanced back at the crazy Li Tianchou, and simply took advantage of his unpreparedness to insert a small red flower at the base of his ear, and then quickly jumped away with a smile.
Li Tianchou blushed suddenly, he had grown so big, he had never been treated like this, and he was at a loss for a while. Xiao Song smiled even more happily, he hurriedly took the little flower, but he was reluctant to throw it away.
Xiao Song was bouncing in front, and Li Tianchou followed all the way, his mood was getting more and more brisk, and he could already clearly hear the sound of running water. When I walked out of the woods, my eyes suddenly widened, and a big river in front of me was quietly hovering like a green jade belt. The sparkling surface of the water and the tall reed-like plants swaying in the wind by the river are truly a beautiful sight. Is this the legendary Xianghe?
The south is mountainous and hilly, so the river beach is not only narrow but also sloping. Xiao Song couldn't take care of it anymore, "It's so beautiful." She shouted, and ran toward the river.
"Be careful!" Li Tianchou hurriedly reminded, and the person followed. The river beach was really steep, and the white waterline was full of gravel and sand, Xiao Song was too excited, and if he was not careful, the person had slipped and fell, and rushed into the river with an exclamation of "ah".
Li Tianchou's hands were fast, he leaned sideways, leaned out with his right hand, and grabbed Xiao Song's arm, he couldn't bear it, so he simply fell to the ground and grabbed a protruding rock with his left hand, "Don't panic, don't move." Li Tianchou gritted his teeth and reminded that he didn't know how much force the rock in his hand could withstand.
At this time, Xiao Song's calf was soaked in the water below, and she was already frightened, but her reaction was also very fast, Li Tianchou said not to move, she desperately restrained her other hand that was still waving around, but all the small flowers she picked fell into the river.
Li Tianchou tried to pull up slowly and hard, but fortunately, the rock did not move at all, and he tried to increase his strength again, but the person was already sweating profusely in pain. It was easy to drag Xiao Song up, and the two of them were exhausted.
After gasping for breath for a long time, Li Tianchou got up, and when he was about to reach out to help Xiao Song, he didn't expect her to sit up by herself. His expression was no longer as panicked as he had just now, but he just stared blankly at the flowers that were full of easy-going water, as if he had suddenly fallen into an evil spirit.
"Are you okay?" Li Tianchou noticed Xiao Song's strangeness and asked with concern.
"It's fine. Xiao Song turned his head and smiled, and when he pulled his sleeves, there were several long blood stains on the pink and snow-white skin, which had oozed blood.
"Let's go back and bandage it. ”
Xiao Song shook his head, "Little problem, it's so beautiful here, let's stay for a while." ”
Li Tianchou was helpless, so he had to squat beside Xiao Song, "You were distracted just now, it doesn't seem to be harmful at all?"
"Of course I'm afraid. But watching those flowers drift away, I suddenly remembered my hometown, which is also such a river. That was the only memory I had when I was very young. Xiao Song said, sighing faintly, with endless nostalgia and yearning between his eyebrows.
It turned out that Li Tianchou couldn't understand Xiao Song's mood at the moment, but he knew the pain when he missed his homeland and relatives. He silently accompanied Xiao Song, looking at the slowly flowing river, and his heart began to churn. Xiao Song is homeless and adopted, but he has suffered a catastrophe, and it is difficult to return to his home, and his life is the same.
I don't know how my father and mother will feel when they see themselves like this, my sister will get married at the end of the year, and it is unknown whether she can go back to see when the time comes, and it seems to be more painful to have a family that is difficult to return.
Beautiful scenery can release people's moods, and it can also disturb people's thoughts, Li Tianchou looked at the river like this, and his head was dizzy unconsciously. He felt that the whole earth was moving, this was the illusion of sight caused by staring at the river for too long, his heart tightened, and he couldn't help but grab Xiao Song's arm suddenly,
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Song's face turned red, but he found that Li Tianchou's expression was wrong.
"Ahh Li Tianchou turned his head when he heard this, and was taken aback, and suddenly his face was red, mother, why did he grab someone's hand again?
Xiao Song looked at Li Tianchou's embarrassment, and smiled, feeling a little sweet in his heart, "Shall we walk along the river beach?" It seemed that she had to relieve this stupid boy, and she diverted the topic.
Li Tianchou hurriedly let go and nodded, "The water on your pants hasn't dried yet." ”
"It doesn't matter, just walk and do it, I'm not that particular. Xiao Song said and stood up.
The two walked slowly along the steep river bank, Xiao Song pointed to the beautiful scenery in front of him from time to time and exclaimed, but Li Tianchou suddenly became alert, and the uncomfortable feeling in the woods just now reappeared.
He looked around quietly, but still didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, and this time he was more convinced that the thing hiding in the shadows was a person. Li Tianchou couldn't help but be secretly surprised, is there any master in this kind of place where ghosts don't shit? So sneaky, but there is no threat and no murderous intent, maybe it is a pervert peeping?
At the bend of the river, the river beach gradually opens up, and when you stand on a high place and look into the distance, there is a large open space as far as the eye can see. The clearing is formed by river alluviality and is composed of almost white-flowered gravel, with little vegetation. What is even more surprising is that there seems to be a small house next to the riverbank, and there are still people living here?
"Look, there's still a house there. Xiao Song apparently discovered the little house as well. "Let's take a look. ”
"I didn't get the master's invitation, isn't this okay?" Li Tianchou hesitated.
"What are you afraid of, don't steal or rob, go visit your new neighbors. Xiao Song was very interested, and he was already moving forward quickly as he spoke, Li Tianchou shook his head, this girl's curiosity is really heavy.
As the slope sloped down, just after turning a corner, Xiao Song in front suddenly exclaimed. Li Tianchou hurriedly stepped forward and found that Xiao Song was stunned there, and an old man in ragged clothes was sitting on a small rock on the bank of the river in front of him.
