"Playing children", also known as cough cough, is one of the traditional opera genres loved by audiences in Datong, Shanxi. It originates from the middle reaches of the Sanggan River, and has been active in Datong, Shuozhou and northwest Jinxi Shenchi, Wuzhai, Hohhot, Baotou and other places in Inner Mongolia, and is deeply loved by the audience. During the Jiaqing and Daoguang years of the Qing Dynasty, there were class activities to play children, and its formation was at least before this. Playing children is a wonderful branch in the hundred gardens of Chinese opera, and is praised by experts as "a living fossil in the history of drama". Compared with the easy-to-understand two-person stage, playing children is more charming, and compared with Jin opera, the oral dialogue is closer to local characteristics, and it is deeply loved by the people in Yanbei.

Jiang Er came out of Sister Liu's barber shop, just listened to Luo Boer's playing with children, and unconsciously hummed all the way to "hey, hey, hahahaha", and when he came to Yu Shanqing's shop, he called Zhang Yuanyuan first, and asked where there was a spacious terrain for rent, not afraid of the terrain, it could accommodate more than a dozen people, and let go of the sound to practice and rest. Zhang Yuanyuan said to pay attention, the two exchanged a few words, and talked about the construction of the temple, and talked about it on the phone, which day to take a few people from Jia Bangguo to the mountain, go to the old temple to investigate the environment, and plan to build a temple. Jiang Er hung up the phone to Zhang Yuanyuan, and then paged Xiao Siyan, telling him to come to the store tomorrow morning and discuss something. hung up the phone, chatted with Yu Shanqing for a few minutes, and then returned to the store with four ice creams.

There was nothing to say all night, the next morning, the sky was hazy, the little four eyes ran over, knocking on the door, just got up Dalin opened the door, and welcomed the little four eyes in, this little four eyes were very cold, not even a hat, the two ears were red from the cold, and they rubbed their hands and covered their ears, and they were chattering about the panic of the cold. Jiang Erbai Ying and the others had already gotten up and finished washing, drinking millet porridge and eating the remaining pastries and flower buns of the New Year.

Xiao Siyan entered the back room, but he was not polite, picked up the pastry and ate it, looked at Jiang Er and asked, "What's the matter with Ergang, what's the matter with Ergang?" ”

Jiang Er was just about to say to Xiao Siyan, helping to find out where there was a good house to rent, and the door was chattering and listening to the two police cars, Xiao Siyan stood on the ground, and saw through the window glass, and immediately his scalp was numb, and his face became waxy and white, and he said tremblingly: "Police police" At this time, a few policemen had already gotten off from the police car, looked up at Jiang Er's signboard, opened the door and walked in. Xiao Siyan was so frightened that he had nowhere to force it, so he could only swallow the pastry in one bite, twisted his head, and held the top of the foreign box against the wall with his hand, trembling, wondering in his heart, whether Jiang Er had set a trap for himself and asked the police to arrest him.

Jiang Er also wondered, why did the police come to his place? At this time, the policeman shouted in the outhouse: "Is there anyone? Is there anyone?" Dalin also greeted him nervously, shouting: "Someone, someone." Then he brought the police in.

When the policeman entered the back room, he habitually looked around a few people in the room first, and saw the little four eyes hiding at a glance, and the little four eyes were so busy that they forgot that there was a big mirror on the wall, and their own appearance was all leaked. The policeman who took the lead had a good memory, and directly called out Xiao Siyan's name: "Yang boy, what are you doing here?" When Xiao Siyan heard this, he trembled, and hurriedly turned his head, recognized the policeman in front of him, and hurriedly nodded and said: "Ah, yes, yes, it's Zhang Suo, what's the matter, what's the matter, hey, no, no, no, there's something, there's something, Ne eyelids jumped, and came to the master to ask the good luck." ”

When the policeman surnamed Zhang heard this, he sneered and shouted, "You are nervous, and you are not looking for you." Xiao Siyan heard that it had nothing to do with him, but his heart still couldn't be put down, so he quietly moved to the door, and said: "Zhang Suo, there's nothing to do here, why don't you go first?" Zhang Suo glanced at him and said: "Be honest with your hands for the New Year, you have to wake up if you know how to jump your eyelids?

At this time, the policeman who was called Zhang by Four Eyes said to the rest of the room, "Who is in charge?"

Jiang Er hurriedly reflexively listened to it, raised his hand and said, "Comrade policeman, Ne is the boss, and Ne said." ”

The policeman glanced at Jiang Er, looked at Jiang Er's youth, and said with a suspicious expression, "Are you Erzhai?"

Jiang Er replied honestly: "Yes, yes, it is the second house." ”

"Have you done anything in vain?" Zhang asked.

"I have done it, and when I was a teenager, I went out with my father to do red and white things, and I have done it in tombs, dressed in new clothes, and buried my spirits. Jiang Er heard the policeman's question, and his hanging heart relaxed, knowing that the police definitely didn't come to trouble him, and the answer was much more natural.

The policeman surnamed Zhang saluted Jiang Er directly after hearing this, and said with a serious face: "Hello comrade, I am the director of the Chengdong Street Police Station in Yunshan County, Zhang Shengli." Can you come with us? ”

Jiang Er saw that the police suddenly became polite, and his heart hung again, and asked, "Oh, Director Zhang, where is that place...... What's going on?"

Zhang Shengli saw that Jiang Er was a little nervous, and said softly: "Your surname is Jiang?" Jiang Er nodded, and the policeman said again: "Oh, Master Jiang has an accident on the national highway, the hospital is not manpowered, and the young people dare not get started. Zhang Shengli said to Jiang Er with embarrassment. Jiang Er heard it and sighed. When the police saw it, they thought that Jiang Er was unwilling, and continued: "Master Jiang, don't worry, I can't let you be busy in vain, and I will give you a subsidy according to the public standard. ”

Jiang Er didn't actually do it for the sake of remuneration, he knew in his heart that there was an accident on this national highway, and he asked himself about his livelihood, he must have died in a car accident, but he was just thinking about the accident, and the forensic doctor and the hospital didn't take over, so he let the second private house deal with it, and he talked to Dalin Toutian about the death of the diaphragm, can he do this alone? After listening to the policeman's words, he replied: "Zhang Suo, is it okay for that person to go in the past?"

Director Zhang turned his head to look at the two police cars parked outside, looked at the four or five people in the room with an embarrassed face, and said, "Master Jiang, you can bring one more to count as one, and you will understand the situation when you go." ”

Jiang Er has no choice, looking at Dalin Erlin, the store must keep people, Dalin has already understood what is going on, his face is white, his eyes are whiter than just now, Jiang Er's heart is ruthless, Dalin has indeed seen the world, otherwise he can't pass this pass in his heart, and it will be difficult to do things in the future. So he said to Bai Ying: "Sister, you look at the store." He said to Da Lin again: "Da Lin, Erlin, let's go, let's go with the post." As he spoke, he first put on his satchel, and the police led the way, carrying Dalin and Erlin into the prepared police car.

Jiang Er took the anxious Dalin and Erlin to the back of the second policeman, that Zhang Shengli sat in the co-pilot's seat, the car was on the national highway, Zhang Shengli chatted with Jiang Er through the reflector: "Look at Master Jiang and the two brothers around me, I suddenly thought, is Master Jiang the Mr. Niyake who can call the wind and rain that has been rumored recently?"

Jiang Er said with an embarrassed face: "People are talking nonsense, how can you have that ability, and you can't figure out what's going on." It's rumored to be like this. ”

The policeman surnamed Zhang continued: "That's still Master Jiang's ability, otherwise how could there be this rumor?" and looked at Da Lin and Erlin, who were sitting there without saying a word, and said, "These two are the King of Fudo Ming and King Kong?" After speaking, he laughed, and he thought that he was really imaged.

After walking on the national highway for a few minutes, Jiang Er thought that the place had arrived, and Zhang Shengli suddenly said to Jiang Er with a serious face: "Master Jiang, you are somewhat mentally prepared." Immediately afterwards, the car began to move forward slowly, there were still ten meters away from the crowd, the car stopped, Zhang Shengli took everyone out of the car, walked over, close to Jiang Er to see, in fact, there are not many people, just blocked by the cordon, people can only line up from a distance to see the excitement, there are many people, Zhang Shengli took Jiang Er and others, pulled away the crowd, drilled through the cordon, Jiang Er saw clearly, the scene in front of him was extremely tragic, a Steyr heavy truck running the transport collided head-on with a bus full of people, the key is the position of the collision, the left side of the bus collided, and the bus was split into two longitudinallyThe remaining half of the minibuses, like a wrenched bagel and a curled caterpillar, were discarded on the side of the national highway. The other half was shattered and splashed everywhere. Steyr heavy trucks are on the other side of the national highway intact. There were not only the wreckage of the minibus on the ground, but also scattered red, white, black, and yellow objects, Jiang Er saw the truth, those were torn corpses, when Dalin understood what was on the ground, he was immediately dizzy and almost fell, and then couldn't help but rush out of the cordon and retched. Erlin didn't have the same big reaction as Dalin, he just covered his eyes with his hands, his index finger and thumb showed a slit from time to time, hiding behind Jiang Er, wanting to see it but not daring to look at it.

Zhang Shengli was actually churning in his heart, he had come once in the morning, and he had already vomited, and he was prepared to come again this time, so he was quite calm. Looking back at Jiang Er, he saw that Jiang Er was just frowning, there was no fear, but there was a look of pity, Zhang Shengli couldn't help but praise in his heart: "This person has some ability, but the two followers are a little dragged, and one has already hidden, leaving only a master who doesn't look bright." ”

At this time, a small policeman came over, and said to Zhang Shengli with a pale face: "Report ...... Report Zhang, just ...... The people from the second department came here just now, and after the inspection, they said...... If it is said to be a traffic accident and there is no other motive, it is ...... And he went again. There was a slight stammering when he spoke, and he vomited a lot just now, depending on the situation and his face.

Zhang Shengli nodded and asked, "Is Team Ye there?" The little policeman pointed to a group of people in the distance and gestured over there. So Zhang Shengli waved his hand at the little policeman, signaled that he knew, let the little policeman go, and took Jiang Er to the team.

In the crowd, there was a person in charge, who saw Zhang Shengli coming, and hurriedly greeted him, and the two shook hands with each other, and then Zhang Shengli said to that person: "Old Ye, this is Master Jiang, Mr. Eryake of Sandaopo, I just found it." ”

The man surnamed Ye glanced at Jiang Er, frowned and said, "Erzhai, is this appropriate?" Zhang Shengli said unhappily after hearing this: "Then Lao Ye, you have to find a way." ”

The surnamed Ye could hear the helplessness in Zhang Shengli's tone, so he could only nod in agreement, and Zhang Shengli introduced to Jiang Er again: "Master Jiang, this is Ye Wenwen of the first team of the traffic police, Captain Ye." Full authority to deal with this traffic accident. Jiang Er Chong also nodded, Ye Wen saluted Jiang Er and said to Jiang Er: "Master Jiang, thank you for your cooperation, the thing is like this at about six o'clock, the two cars collided, and the panting and the embarrassed were pulled away by the hospital, leaving these pieces on the ground and the car, the hospital agreed to accept it, but ......" Ye Wenwen looked left and right at no one, but still quietly leaned on Jiang Er's ear and said: "The hospital will only accept it after forensic identification and comparison, for fear that the owner will come to trouble and fight a lawsuit in the future." Originally, there were two forensic doctors in our three departments, but unfortunately Lao Dong went to Yanzhou for a meeting, and he could only rush back tomorrow, leaving only an apprentice, too young, I haven't experienced it, I just came and didn't know if it was pretended, or really, I was dizzy, I couldn't help it, I found you, you looked at it, and you felt that it looked like a pair, so you put it together, just put it in a bag. ”

Jiang Er was worried, rubbing his temples, it wasn't that Jiang Er was afraid, but Jiang Er was also worried, in case he pretended to be wrong, the victim found out that something was wrong, and went back to find his own trouble, didn't he make trouble for himself? So he said to Zhang Shengli and Ye Wenwen: "Zhang Suo, Ye team, it doesn't matter if this pretending to be a fight, it's a gesture, but you also know that the hospital is afraid of taking responsibility, and it's a foreigner, isn't it asking for trouble?"
