Chinese New Year (3)

On a mountain pass, there sat a group of people, about thirty in number, all dressed in yellow-green military uniforms.

Just take a closer look, you will find that most of these people are women, looking at the cold and sassy faces, even if they are resting, their sharp eyes will look around vigilantly, obviously they are all female soldiers who have undergone special training.

The leader was also a female soldier, only very young, about twenty-three or fourteen years old, standing at the front of the line, although wearing the same uniform as the others, but on her feet were a pair of black over-the-knee leather boots, wearing white gloves on her hands, wearing a beret, and her hair under the hat was black and soft, which she tied in a knot in the middle with a rubber ring and draped it over her shoulders at will. She has a super good look, a delicate and straight nose, a melon seed face that can't find the slightest flaw, and her eyes are sharp but smart, especially the curved eyelashes. It added a little more weakness to her, but the slightly pursed lips made her look a little repulsive.

If you have to score, this woman is definitely a well-deserved 9 literary appearance, five years of military career, so that she completely faded away from the youth when she was in school, not only grew taller, but even her figure was much better, wearing boots with legs, slender and straight, the waist was bound by a uniform belt, Ying Ying held it, and indirectly outlined the scenery on her chest like a rice ball half-immersed in water, looming.

I saw that she had a walkie-talkie in her hand, and a slightly hoarse voice came from the walkie-talkie, ""Chief Xu, we have found out that there have been a lot of outsiders in Heshi Town in the past few days, but we are worried about startling the grass, so we have not interrogated the villagers. ”

The female soldier known as Chief Xu snorted, thought for a while, and replied, "You guys stay put, and I'll bring someone in later." ”

"Sir!" the voice on the intercom said urgently: "This area has not been peaceful recently, and the people of the Devil's Legion may be dormant in the town, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to come here in person......"

"Less nonsense!" Chief Xu reprimanded, "This is an order!"

The man on the other side of the intercom was silent for two seconds before replying, "Yes, sir." ”

End of conversation.

Chief Xu buckled the walkie-talkie back to the armed belt on his left waist and walked back to the team behind him.

Seeing her coming, the group of female soldiers who were resting in place immediately stood up in unison, even if they were not deliberately organized, the formation was neat and neat, arranged in a square.

"I'm going to go to River Town, but not too many people, which of you would like to come with me?"

Without any hesitation, more than thirty female soldiers did not say a word, but raised their right hands at the same time.

Chief Xu thought for a moment. looked at the penultimate female soldier on the right, "Zhiqing, you come with me." ”

The female soldier named Zhiqing replied yes, took two steps forward, came to her side, and completed the rank.

Chief Xu glanced at the rest of the people, his cold face softened a little, and said in a clear voice: "The others stay here and wait for my orders." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was some commotion in the atmosphere in the team, but no one spoke.

Chief Xu smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about me, we have dealt with the Devil Army a lot in the past few years, and a few stinky fish and rotten shrimp can't pose much threat to me." ”

At this time, a man in black uniform, who had never spoken, stood on the left-hand side, took a few steps forward, came to her side, and whispered, "Kiki, I ......"

Chief Xu's eyes were cold.

He had no choice but to quickly change his words: "Sir, I'll go with you this time." ”

Chief Xu frowned, thought for a while, then nodded, and said It's okay to go together, but everything has to be up to me.

The man in black uniform secretly breathed a sigh of relief and replied yes. It's just that although he lowered his head, he glanced at Chief Xu's side face out of the corner of his eye, and there was a faint flash of inexplicable essence in his eyes.

The army had always acted resolutely, and after making a decision, Chief Xu, his subordinate known as Zhiqing, and the men in black uniforms, a group of three, left the group and began to walk towards the faintly visible outline of the town in front of them. On the way, the three of them went to a farmhouse to change into ordinary civilian clothes, Chief Xu was wearing a blue denim suit, Zhiqing was a sportswear, and the man in black uniform was casual on the upper and lower body.

After leaving the farmhouse, it seems that because of the lack of uniforms, the relationship between the three of them has finally become a little more harmonious, and even the conversation has become more.

Chief Xu's full name is Xu Jiaqi, the male name in the black uniform is Zhang Xuecheng, and Zhiqing's surname is Sun.

Among the three, although Xu Jiaqi has the highest military rank, Zhang Xuecheng, as a consultant, is the oldest, 29 years old, and he is usually able to speak in the team, and Xu Jiaqi has to discuss many decisions with him.

At this time, it was noon, the sun was very shining, and the three of them walked for more than half an hour, they were all a little thirsty, and seeing that there were still two or three hours away from Heshi Town, so his subordinate Sun Zhiqing went to buy water for the two chiefs.

Xu Jiaqi came to rest under a tree on the side of the road, but she was not tired, but it was a little hot.

Zhang Xueliang empathetically folded half of a taro leaf in his hand on the side of the road, fanned her, and asked while fanning: "Qiqi, is there something wrong with you running so far to come to this river town?"

Xu Jiaqi was very resistant to Zhang Xuecheng's title of 'Qiqi' at first, but the other party's status was not low, and she was not good at a title, so she let him call it so, and it was more than two years since he called it.

Xu Jiaqi hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "I'm here to find someone." ”

"Looking for someone?" Zhang Xuecheng frowned and said, "Can't you just tell the people below to do this kind of thing?"

Xu Jiaqi said lightly: "This is a private matter, and it is not appropriate to hand it over to subordinates." ”

Zhang Xuecheng wanted to ask carefully, but Xu Jiaqi kept silent, which made him squint slightly, and a hint of contemplation appeared on his slightly handsome face.

After a few minutes, Sun Zhiqing came back from buying water, and after the three of them drank it, they rested for more than ten minutes before they started to hurry again.

Towards evening, the sun sets westward.

The group of three finally arrived at River Town.

Xu Jiaqi stood outside, looking at the town from afar, looking at more than eighty percent of the adobe houses inside, as well as the sparse flow of people on the streets, her face calm.

"It doesn't seem like a wealthy place. Sun Zhiqing is a talkative person, she put her hands flat in front of her eyebrows, looked into the distance like Xu Jiaqi, sighed inexplicably, and said softly: "The remote places of our country are still very difficult, and I don't know if this situation will be improved in a few years." ”

Zhang Xuecheng took a sip of water and said softly: "There will always be that day." ”

Xu Jiaqi suddenly snorted coldly, "If you want the people of Saibei to live well, you must exterminate the devil army." ”

Zhang Xuecheng shook his head and retorted: "If you talk about the primary position, the Qiao gang in the south should be suppressed as soon as possible." This gang has been occupying the southern provinces for two and a half years, and the south, the richest region in our country, accounts for more than 65 percent of the country's grain output. ”

Sun Zhiqing smiled and said: "I don't agree with this, I heard that although the Qiao Gang is widely distributed, it has always been peaceful and self-contained, and even I heard that the Qiao Gang are all good people who rob the rich and help the poor, and they are the most considerate of the common people, where they are." I don't know how many times better the management of law and order is than before. ”

Zhang Xuecheng frowned and reprimanded: "Zhiqing, pay attention to your identity and position!"

Sun Zhiqing was not afraid of him, grinned, and grimaced: "Brother Xuecheng, there are only three of us here, don't use officials to coerce me, you must know that my sister Qiqi is next to you, you dare to bully me, see if she doesn't clean you up." ”

Zhang Xuecheng glanced at Xu Jiaqi, who was silent beside him, sighed, and pointed at Sun Zhiqing with his finger, his face was quite helpless.

"Alright, let's go inside. ”

Xu Jiaqi stood up and walked towards the town first. However, after walking a few steps, she advised: "Remember to hide your identity when you go in, and think you are a tourist to the Gobi Desert." ”

Zhang Xueliang and Sun Zhiqing nodded their heads, of course they knew it.

In this way, under the reflection of the westerly and dusk sunset, the three of them entered the town through the wooden dilapidated gate engraved with the three big red characters of 'River Town'.

Because they were tourists, they had a lot of luggage, so they had to find a small hotel in the town to stay.

It's just bad luck that the number of tourists has increased recently, and there is only one room left in the small hotel. In desperation, the three of them could only live together. Although the hotel environment is very poor and the conditions are poor, they are all soldiers and will not be picky.

Xu Jiaqi didn't have much appetite, she didn't sit down when the meal was served, but left the hotel alone and went for a walk outside.

It hasn't been long since it came in, so the sun hasn't completely set, and a faint yellow glow can be seen on the horizon.

The town of Heshi is not prosperous, and it can even be said that there is famine everywhere, and not far after he came out, Xu Jiaqi encountered several groups of beggars in a row. These beggars are not disabled people with severed hands and feet, nor are they hunchbacked old people, but all seven or eight year old children, some younger, only four or five years old, in ordinary families, at the age of babbling.

Xu Jiaqi could see that many of those little beggars were not disguised, but really hungry and cold children, with ragged clothes and thin yellow muscles, and some of them may not have food at home. The parents had no choice but to let them go out to try their luck and see if they could meet one or two well-wishers to give alms; some of them were not there, and their relatives were unwilling to accept them, so they had to beg and live one day at a time.

Most of the townspeople were very indifferent, and had no intention of helping these little beggars, and even if they met them head-on, they pretended not to see them and hurried by. It can't be said that they are hard-hearted, after all, there is a famine in a hundred miles around here, and the food that can be eaten is very expensive, and there is the X Corps as a disaster, in such a panicked situation, maybe they will die one day, and they can't even take care of their own children at that time, how can they take care of other people's affairs?

Therefore, these children with a bumpy fate, if they want to blame, can only blame themselves for being born in an era that is not peaceful.

Xu Jiaqi walked silently, feeling a little sentimental in her heart.

Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, it's been five years.

She came here in River Town, indeed for private matters.

A private matter that makes me feel guilty.

Back then, the beautiful woman named Xu Bingyan with a hot figure gave birth to a very cute girl in front of her, but at that time she was full of bad feelings for Xu Bingyan and gave her some necessary help, plus she happened to have a task on her side, so she left in a hurry.

After all, when she was in school, the reason why she was separated from that person was that person, all misunderstandings started with Xu Bingyan.

However, what surprised her was that when she came back from the mission, Xu Bingyan had disappeared, and there was information that she had been arrested, along with her daughter.

And then later.

After she slowly learned about some of the things that happened in Shenzhen Securities City, the reason why Xu Bingyan ran to Ningxia alone, and who the father of the child in her belly was, her heart was like a thunderbolt from the blue.

There is sadness, but there is more guilt.

So in the past two years, she has traveled to many places in the north, using all the power she can use, just to find the girl she once hated very much, and ...... his children.

It's just that she is very scared at the same time, afraid that the girl and her child are no longer alive.

Xu Jiaqi took a deep breath, tried her best to shatter this thought, and cast her eyes into the distance, intending to divert her imagination from this.

At this time. A group of little beggars walked past him, seven or eight in number, of varying ages, men and women, the oldest being eight or nine years old, and the younger being only four or five years old.

As expected, the group of little beggars stopped beside Xu Jiaqi, raised the broken bowls in their hands, and looked at her with a pair of bright eyes.

Xu Jiaqi's face was slightly gloomy, although she saw that some of these children were actually disguised, because the eyes of these small children did not have that kind of longing and expectation. Rather, it was more of a playful mood, but she hesitated for a moment, but still put her right hand into the pocket of her jeans, and then stretched it out, and gently swept over the row of broken bowls in front of her, only to hear a clanging sound, and in each little beggar's bowl there was an extra silver dollar coin.

"Yay!"

The children who had received the windfall let out a cheer in unison, and rushed forward with the broken bowls, not knowing whether to go back to ask their parents for credit, or to buy snacks to eat, laughing and laughing along the way, and being elated.

Look in the direction the group of children left. Xu Jiaqi shook her head and was about to go back, but when she just turned around, she saw that there was a little girl who looked like black charcoal at her feet and didn't leave, because she was short, only four or five years old, thin as skin and bones, very inconspicuous, and didn't care about her just now.

It's just that Xu Jiaqi was shocked that this little beggar's face was covered with blue and black scars, and half of his face was swollen, and he didn't know who hit him, but he actually gave such a heavy hand.

At this time, the little beggar was still in the posture of holding the bowl, and his swollen little face was full of black and white eyes, which were emitting a shiny light.

Xu Jiaqi was stunned, and found that the bowl of this little black charcoal was empty, and it turned out that the coin just now was not given to her, so she put her hand into her trouser pocket again, but only the large-denomination banknotes could be touched, and the change was gone.

Nor is it that she is unwilling to give to her. It's because she's such a young child, if she has too much money in her hand, it will inevitably attract some adult's bad thoughts, which will harm her.

Although the little beggar is young, he knows how to observe words and colors, and after seeing Xu Jiaqi's posture, he slowly put down the bowl, and his eyes instantly dimmed.

"I'm sorry. ”

Xu Jiaqi felt a little guilty, she stretched out her hands and gently covered the two small hands of Xiao Heitan holding the broken bowl.

The little girl's body stiffened for a moment, she raised her head, looked at this fairy-like big sister, and suddenly smiled brightly.

"Sister, your hands are so warm. ”

Xiao Heitan squatted down, and in Xu Jiaqi's surprised gaze, he approached her shoes, took a few breaths on them, and then grabbed the worn sleeves with his palms and began to wipe them on them.

"I'm still young, and I have nothing to repay you. Xiao Heitan carefully wiped the dust off Xu Jiaqi's shoes, then stood up, still smiled and said, "I can only help you wipe your shoes." ”

After speaking, she bowed to Xu Jiaqi, held the broken bowl, and jumped away all the way.

Xu Jiaqi frowned, along the way, she also gave money to some little beggars, but without exception, after they got the money, they all ran away cheering, like this little black charcoal to shine shoes and bow and thank you, but it was the first time she encountered it, not to mention that the little black charcoal had not received money from her.

Thinking about it, Xiao Hei Tan had already walked far away, and the dusk sunset stretched her thin figure extremely long.

Although Xu Jiaqi didn't find the slightest feature of the half-mixed-race girl with a hot body from this little girl, nor did she have the handsome outline of the man, she still became interested in her for the first time and couldn't help but follow slowly.

After walking a short distance, there was a kiosk on the side of the road.

The group of beggars who asked for money from Xu Jiaqi just now had already exchanged the coins in their hands for all kinds of snacks, including lollipops, bread, and low-quality drinks. Threes and threes gathered together in twos and threes, sharing their hard-won joy. It's just that when they saw Xiao Hei Tan hurrying over with her head down, but didn't lean over, they immediately knew that she definitely didn't ask for money, so they laughed nonsense:

"Hey, hey. Look at that little bastard, if she doesn't get any money today, she must be starving to death!"

"Who made her so annoying, I guess I'm going to fetch water for people tomorrow!"

"Hahaha, ugly monsters, little freaks, deserve it!"

"That's it, she deserves it!" Why didn't Zhang Rong's father beat her to death before, so that she would always run out and be scared!"

It's hard to imagine how much this group of little beggars hates this little black charcoal, so much so that they can spit out such vicious words in their immature mouths, even the fat female boss in her early forties and bloated body in the commissary. He also clasped his hands and looked at her with disdain, his eyes were deep, and he looked like he was looking at a disaster star.

In the face of this surging ridicule and scolding, Xiao Heitan didn't say a word, just walked briskly with a small bowl, his dirty and black face was expressionless, obviously accustomed to this kind of scene.

After Xiao Heitan stayed away from the commissary, without the hateful eyes and vicious words of those children, her mood quickly improved again.

On the way home, Xiao Heitan saw a yellow earth dog on the side of the road that was thinner than her, and even his ribs were exposed, and he sighed. Rushing up quickly, the earth dog saw her coming from a distance, and subconsciously wanted to run, but the barefoot little black charcoal ran fast, blocking its way like a gust of wind, and the earth dog whined, shrugged its head, and lay back on the ground with a plop.

Xiao Heitan walked to the side of the earth dog, held the dog's head with one hand, his face full of scars was full of energy, and he shouted: "Little brother, what's the matter with you? You usually chase and scream people who pass by, why do you see this woman like this?"

The earth dog didn't know if he had suffered too much from Xiao Hei Tan, and even looked at her with fear.

"It's not going to work. Little Black Tan slapped the dog on the head heavily, causing the earth dog to scream in pain, but he still didn't dare to move, and even closed his eyes.

Xiao Heitan lost interest, and shouted that I won't beat you up if you are as hungry as me, but when you see this woman in the future, remember to walk around, do you hear?

The earth dog didn't know if he understood, and he actually wagked his tail twice at everyone in the town.

Little Black Charcoal got up contentedly. Continuing to hold her little bowl, she spread her feet and ran forward.

Night falls.

There were a few lights in the town.

Xiao Heitan ran all the way, and suddenly heard several huge and snow-white figures appear in front of him, and the cries of 'goose goose goose' were endless.

Xiao Heitan's face was straight, and he soon met three big white geese with their heads held high and as tall as her.

Four eyes touched.

These three big white geese, which chased and pecked the children in the town on weekdays, instantly screamed, flapped their wings, turned their heads and ran back.

It's just that Xiao Heitan smiled, ran over in two steps, jumped hard, jumped on the back of the goose that ran last, and grabbed the goose's neck with both hands. Let the big white goose scream hoarsely, staggering and running like a penguin, learning from the way others have seen others riding horses on TV before, shouting in a childish voice: "Drive, drive, drive!"

The ground is full of goose feathers, chickens and dogs are jumping.

In the end, someone in the left path came all the way with a flashlight, Xiao Heitan's face turned pale, and he quickly jumped down from the back of the goose, touched the swollen half of his face, and muttered hatefully: "That bald head is so heavy, I can't let him see it." ”

She picked up the bowl on the ground, pointed to the three dejected white geese, and said, "That pool outside the town is for drinking, and if I see you go in to bathe and, I will pluck all your hair!"

After the warning, she glanced at the light of the flashlight that was getting closer and closer, and then ran away in a hurry, and disappeared into the night in front of her in a short time.

After she left, in the corner next to her, a tall woman walked out.

Xu Jiaqi looked at the direction that the little black charcoal left, and her originally cold face suddenly smiled, like a hundred flowers blooming, and it was incredibly beautiful.

She habitually pursed her lips and whispered, "What an interesting child." ”

That night, ten kilometers south of the town of River.

There was a young man wearing a hat and a cloak on his head, bathed in the night and starlight, slowly walking towards the town.
