A bright white moon hung in the night sky, the sound of trivial insects came from the quiet mountains, and in a poor and backward village surrounded by mountains, a young man with clear eyebrows floated on the rippling water of a small stream in the village, and gradually drifted down to a wooden trestle bridge.

Suddenly, the young man's head touched the stone on the side of the trestle where the woman hammered her clothes, he felt the severe pain and slowly opened his eyes in the water, when the young man opened his eyes, he couldn't help but feel a buzzing pain in his head, under this severe pain, the young man couldn't help but hammer his head with his fist, and after the pain eased a little, he reached out and grabbed the stone on the side of the trestle where the woman hammered the clothes and went ashore.

Under the soft moonlight, the young man sat on the faded wooden trestle in a daze after coming ashore, looking at the round moon reflected in the clear blue waves, and the jagged algae in the water.

The young man sat on the pier and watched the red fish leap out of the water and the shadow of the bright moon in the water.

I don't know how long it took for the young man to come back to his senses, he repeatedly touched the clothes on his body and found that his body had already become empty, and after the young man looked around at his body, he only saw that he was wearing a bracelet with various colored bells on his wrist.

The young man saw the bracelet he was wearing on his wrist with various small colored bells. , his heart couldn't help but feel inexplicable heartache.

Suddenly, a noisy voice came into the ears of the young man, "This watery poplar, a woman who does not abide by women's morals, as a widow, actually did such a bad thing with someone in the bud rice field behind her back, and I think it is a great gift to this prodigal * person to sink her, I think a woman like her should be burned alive, so it will be a hundred better."

The young man glanced over to the noisy crowd and saw many villagers with torches clustered around a prison cart that was approaching in his direction.

In the prison car, a woman with delicate white skin, a beautiful face, and silk clothes was carried out, she had a blue nose and swollen face, and she looked like she had been beaten, but she was smiling brightly, without any painful expression.

The villagers around the prisoner cart are all taunting the woman in the prisoner cart.

"You, a mourning star, killed your husband on the night of your wedding, you shouldn't marry into our village like a scourge!"

"You shameless woman, your man's first seven years have not passed, and you are doing that kind of obscene thing in the budding rice field with the second-rate Ge Gen in the village, aren't you afraid that your manly man will jump out of the coffin board to find you!"

"You unruly woman, you are embarrassed to laugh, just like you, the fish in the river that sink you in the pond are probably dirty and refuse to eat your meat!"

……

With the insults, the voices of condemnation and ridicule reached the ears of the woman in the prison car, but she couldn't say a word to defend herself, she just kept laughing, laughing presumptuously and casually.

When the prisoner cart ran over the bluestone road heavily, the prisoner cart stopped on the bank of the stream next to the trestle, and with a plop, the prisoner cart loaded with a beautiful woman was pushed into the water by several big men, and the heavy prisoner cart was instantly submerged by the clear and turquoise river.

The villagers all cursed a few times towards the place where the prisoner car had fallen into the water, and then they turned around and walked away one by one with torches in hand, and then there was a sound of falling into the water, and the young man sitting on the trestle and watching the scenery jumped into the water.

It didn't take long for the young man to emerge from the water, and while he was dragging the water, he single-handedly pulled the prisoner cart containing the Qingli woman to the shore, and when the young man came ashore, he reached out and broke several pillars with the thickness of his arms in the prisoner cart one after another, and rescued the Qingli woman from the prisoner cart.

Because the beautiful woman was wet, her figure was about to be revealed in front of the young man, clinging to the straight buttocks of the silk dress, and the snow-white skin on her chest and the two blushes were clearly displayed in the young man's field of vision.

But the young man's eyes were still unwavering at the wonderful sight before him, and he just stared at the bracelet with the colored bells in his hand, and fell into a kind of memory of the past.

But the more the young man thought about it, the more his head hurt, and he kept pounding his head with his fist like raindrops, looking extremely painful.

The Qingli woman said to the young man, "What's wrong with you?"

After the young man heard the words of the Qingli woman, he stopped hammering his head with his fist, and the young man frowned and said: "I seem to have lost my memory, I can't remember some things at all now!"

The Qingli woman stared at the young man in front of her with a pair of watery eyes and said, "You don't remember anything from before!"

The young man shook his head and said, "I don't dare to think about what happened before now, I have a terrible headache when I think about what happened before!"

"Since you can't remember the past, don't think about it, why add pain to yourself!"

After the young man nodded thoughtfully, he opened his mouth and asked the Qingli woman, "By the way, what's your name!"

The woman with a beautiful face said, "My name is Shen Qinglian, what about you?"

After the young man thought about it with a painful expression, he said helplessly: "I don't remember my name either, I feel a buzzing pain in my head when I think about the past!"

"In that case, I think you're stupid, so I'd better call you dumb. The Qingli woman looked at the young man in front of her and opened her mouth with a smile.

The young man's face couldn't help but become very ugly when he heard the name Dumb, he didn't speak, he just lowered his head silently and looked at the bracelet with colorful bells in his hand, and it seemed that there was something important in his heart that he hadn't let go

The Qingli woman said to the young man, "Since we are all homeless, then you can come with me, and I will take you out of this place!"

The young man scratched his head and pondered for a moment and said, "Anyway, I can't remember what happened before, I don't know anyone in this place now, so let's go with you, by the way, where are you going to take me!"

The Qingli woman looked at the young man in front of her and said, "I'll take you out of this village to live in my mother's house, which is Dongyao Village next to this village!"

Saying that, the Qingli woman walked straight towards the entrance of the village, and the young man followed behind the Qingli woman, he scratched his head as if he remembered something, and wondered: "Are you really sinking in the pond because of that kind of thing that Kudzu did in the bud rice field?"

The Qingli woman saw a faint flush on the young man's face and said: "Don't listen to their nonsense, when I was working in the budding rice field, the second-rate son Ge Gen in the village had to insult me, and then I didn't agree to turn around and ran away, and the second-rate Zi Ge Gen didn't succeed before he became angry and made a rumor to me." ”

In the silent night, the young man and the beautiful woman chatted for a while, and the figures of the two gradually faded out of the village......
