Chapter 33: The Life of a Dog

The wind was howling, raising up dust, and this small isolated village seemed to be particularly restless today, and the calm water surface was thrown into the stones, and the waves were slowly spreading.

From the other side of the mountain, a man walked out, this is the third group of visitors to this city in just a few days, but compared with the first two, this man who is also dusty is not so glamorous, but gives a feeling of being one with such a decline.

Dressed in a gray robe, with a homemade black fur hat on his head, his messy hair covering half of his face, his exposed chin was particularly impressive, and below his lips, a scar stretched across his left and right cheeks, extending to his neck, it was hard to imagine what this wound once looked like.

The clothes under the robe looked like a primitive person, thick coarse cloth trousers, and a pair of snow boots that didn't know what to make of leather underneath, although the method was rough, but in this harsh environment, it was like a person's second life.

He carried a worn-out snakeskin bag on his back, and a dangling old flask pinned to his waist, as if he had climbed from the farthest reaches of the world.

The one-eyed village chief who was in a bad mood was about to go up the mountain to collect the condom, but he happened to bump into this new face, and the heavy village chief's expression immediately became solemn, and his face was full of vigilance, because in such a place where there is no special mark on the map, there are almost no outsiders all year round, and this man's dress is extremely suspicious.

The village chief's hand slowly touched the leg of the dog pinned to his waist, and the two hunting dogs leading up the mountain beside him also stared at the round eyes one by one, as long as the village chief whistled, these two hunting dogs who often go up the mountain would pounce without hesitation.

The man ignored the warning eyes of the two hounds and walked directly to the village chief.

The village chief's heart was beating faster, looking up and down at this man, it didn't look like he was strong, and his height was not surprising in the north, but there was something very subtle on his body, and the eyes under the messy hair made the village chief inexplicably think of the beast in the mountain, which was not like the eyes that a person should have.

"Uncle Liu. It was a slightly hoarse voice.

The one-eyed village chief, who had already arched his body, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this call, as if he had heard this voice in his memory, but he forgot where he heard it for a while.

The man moved, but he just brushed off the messy bangs, revealing that face, the former immaturity has disappeared, replaced by a kind of vicissitudes, the skin is no longer so pale, but a color of wind and sun, even though he has undergone earth-shaking changes, but the smile as bright as the sun, but still has not disappeared in his vicissitudes of life.

The one-eyed village chief was stunned, and when he caught a glimpse of the conspicuous scar under the man's left eye, he immediately remembered something, and couldn't help but call: "The little rabbit cub that Teacher Ling saved in the mountains back then?"

"It's me, and you're still able to remember me. He said with a smile, but now on his face, in addition to the scar on his left eye, the terrifying scar on his chin, and on his forehead, two more terrifying scars have been added.

The one-eyed village chief did not shy away from these, because he was born in this dire situation, and the scar is the best proof of a man's growth and strength, which is the most important trace left by the mountain to a man's life.

Although people born in this kind of place have a natural vigilance against outsiders, Guo Yinling is a special, and the man in front of him is also a special, the one-eyed village chief can remember very clearly, this young man named Abin did not do much for the village back then, and has always been extremely respectful to the people in the village, he can see that it is not a performance, but from the humility in his bones, which makes the one-eyed village chief, who is extremely stingy on weekdays, have a lot of good feelings towards Abin.

"How can I forget, now I still use the cover you made to catch mountain jumps, two years ago we put down a 300-pound wild boar in the mountains together, the fangs, I am still hanging at home. The one-eyed village chief was suddenly opened into a chatterbox, remembering the past with Abin.

Abin is still smiling, he has always been grateful to the people of this village, if it were not for the herbs of this village, he might not have survived.

Of course, what made Abin most grateful was the woman who picked him up in the mountains, he still clearly remembers, the thin woman carried him down the mountain hard, without stopping for a moment, in the haze, he remembered that in the heavy snow, her sweat had soaked the cotton clothes, if it weren't for her, he might have fed the beasts in the mountains.

The one-eyed village chief walked directly to Ah Bin, and had a bear hug with Ah Bin, and suddenly felt that compared to the somewhat thin young man two years ago, Ah Bin's body was a little thicker now, and his body was as hard as a stone.

"This is more than two years, and I am reluctant to come back to see. The one-eyed village chief let go of Ah Bin, and said very eagerly, the two hunting dogs beside him were very humane, and they had already let down their vigilance, wagging their tails and circling around this stranger.

Ah Bin felt the enthusiasm of the village chief, scratched his head and said, "It's hard to say, these two dogs are the two little cubs back then?"

The one-eyed village chief nodded, took Abin's hand and walked to the village and said, "It's those two cubs, but it's a pity that the old dog broke his lungs on the mountain and was arched by the wild boar." ”

Ah Bin listened, put away his smile, and his expression was a little heavy.

The one-eyed village chief sighed and said, "This is fate, the hound will end up like this sooner or later." ”

"But for them, it is the most magnificent way to die, they are beasts, not birds. Abin said, one hand touched the head of a hunting dog that came over, this hunting dog covered with scars, looked at this man like this, as if a person and a dog had the same mind.

The one-eyed village chief seemed to understand Ah Bin's sentence very well, nodded, and then gradually fell silent, perhaps thinking of something sad, and did not speak again.

Seeing that the one-eyed village chief fell silent, Ah Bin thought that the village chief was beginning to miss the black dog, and then said inadvertently, "How is Sister Ling?"

Speaking of this, the one-eyed village chief's face became even more ugly, he stopped, turned his back to Abin, rolled up a cigarette, licked the saliva, and then put it to his mouth and lit it with a match, and said lightly: "She's gone." ”

Ah Bin's originally relaxed expression slowly froze, maybe this was a surprise to him, but he clearly felt a trace of subtle emotion in the voice of the one-eyed village chief, and couldn't help asking, "Uncle Liu, what happened?"

The one-eyed village chief sighed, and did not hide anything from Ah Bin, and told Ah Bin what had happened in the village in the past few days.

And Ah Bin, the more he listened, the more solemn his expression became, until the end, his fists were slowly clenched, and he asked word by word: "That person, haven't left yet?"

The one-eyed village chief looked a little rickety at the moment, and said weakly: "That guy's background is not simple, he called me from above and didn't let me make a mistake, otherwise I, the village chief, would have done it, and several strong guys in the village were easily knocked down by him together, so don't ask for trouble." ”

Suddenly, there was no movement behind him, and the one-eyed village chief seemed to notice that something was wrong, and the hunting dog beside him actually clamped his tail at this time, as if he was afraid of something, and in his memory, the two hunting dogs who often went up the mountain with him were not afraid of the wild boar of more than 200 catties.

The one-eyed village chief slowly turned his head, this was a look he thought he would never forget in his life, although he had seen a lot of beasts in the mountains, and even had a direct confrontation with the black blind man, but he never thought that a person would have this kind of look, this was from the most primitive killing intent.

"I'm going to meet the man. Although Abin's expression was calm, his voice carried a suppressed anger.

The one-eyed village chief was going to open his mouth to persuade a few words, but when he noticed Abin's absolutely cold eyes, he understood something, he knew that the mountain guard dog that came out of the mountain was about to meet the eagle falcon from the capital.

Who has fought whom, the one-eyed village chief is a little looking forward to it, although he thinks that he is not the opponent of that man for that Xu Huasheng in his heart, but the Abin in front of him does not seem to be a fuel-efficient lamp, he has already begun to calculate in his heart, if Abin really subdues that man, although he is not sure that he can find Guo Yinling, but at least he can breathe a bad breath for their village.

But think about it carefully, if this man really has three long and two short in Liujiazhai, and the top doesn't clean him up, the one-eyed village will beat a drum in his heart again.

"Abin, you have to be careful, that person is not easy to deal with, he is a person with a background, and we little people can't afford to provoke him. The one-eyed village chief caught up with Ah Bin and told him repeatedly.

"Uncle Liu, I hope you keep the people in the village away, and you can rest assured, I will bear all the consequences, and it has nothing to do with Liujiazhai. Abin seemed to see that the one-eyed village chief seemed to be worried about something.

When the one-eyed village chief heard this, he saw that Abin had made up his mind, and he also gave up blocking it, just standing in place and watching Abin go to Hope Primary School, and all he could do was pray in his heart that the wind would not affect Liujiazhai.

As for Ah Bin, he walked towards Hope Primary School with a fearless face, and when he heard the description of the one-eyed village chief, his heart was full of anger, because Guo Yinling had a life-saving grace for him, so he couldn't turn a blind eye to what was happening in front of him.
