Darkness covers every inch of the city, especially in the remote mountain villages, and if you are walking on the village road or the road in the fields, you have to be refreshed, because walking at night when you can't see your fingers here, getting lost is just a small thing, and accidentally falling into puddles and fish ponds is the most dangerous.

It was already past one o'clock in the morning, and there was no room in the huge Yaotian Village that was lit at all, except for a faint light on the balcony on the second floor of the Cheng family, and the whole village was dark.

Cheng Rongjun leaned on the balcony and smoked non-stop, one after another, and the pile of cigarette butts and cigarette ashes scattered on the ground was enough to prove all this.

The occasional pouring rain from outside began to fall yesterday evening for more than seven hours, and the raindrops crashed on the concrete floor downstairs, washing away the dusty concrete floor.

The weather in the south this year is surprisingly dry, and it has not rained so much for more than half a year, which is indeed a happy event for farmers who cultivate their land and crops, at least they no longer have to fight for water in fish ponds, and they don't have to fight for the ditches in the river to wash clothes.

Cheng Rongjun's family does not grow crops, and the laundry is a washing machine, so naturally there is no need to worry about these trivial matters, because Cheng Rongjun's father was a retired officer in the army, and their family was the only resident household in the whole village.

If it weren't for Mingyan's matter, Cheng Rongjun's mood would not be so bad, since the desertion announcement was sent to Xiafang Village, the village committee and the people in the township would "visit" him every once in a while, ostensibly as a formality, but in fact, they indirectly inquired about Mingyan's whereabouts.

Sensei said that Cheng Rongjun didn't know where Ming Yan was, and even if he knew, he wouldn't tell them.

He didn't want to believe that his favorite nephew would commit a crime until he died, this kid had been practicing martial arts with him since he was ten years old, in Cheng Rongjun's impression, Ming Yan was introverted, honest and duty-bound, among all the classmates who practiced martial arts, he learned the fastest and best, even so, other classmates bullied him, he didn't know to fight back, Cheng Rongjun said more than once that he was a little too honest, and he was a big man.

The year before last, Mingyan also rescued a child who fell into the water by the river on the outskirts of the city, for which he was also vigorously commended by the district government and the government, and his portrait and heroic deeds are still posted on the white wall on the side of the road.

How can such a quality and such a character be associated with the three words "wanted criminal"? Is there another hidden plot or is there some conspiracy in it? The announcement states that Yan also kidnapped a child, and who is this child?

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, the more annoyed he became, and he could only relieve the boredom in his heart by smoking cigarettes one after another.

Before I knew it, it was already past two o'clock in the morning, and I didn't know how the child was doing? Is it cold or not? Hungry or not? Is there a place to live? It can't be sleeping under the overpass like those beggars?

Thinking of this, Cheng Rongjun frowned and shook his head with a sigh, a cold wind blew in the distance, mixed with sparse raindrops hitting his body and face, and he couldn't help but wrap his coat to keep out the cold.

At this time, a thick military coat was draped over his body from behind, and a gentle voice sounded in his ears: "Go to bed early." ”

Cheng Rongjun turned around, just stared at his wife's clear and beautiful eyes, and nodded slightly.

Husbands and wives don't say a word to each other, but they can both enter each other's inner world and know what each other is thinking, but there are some topics that talk too much and only add to the sadness, at least until they think of a reasonable solution to the problem.

"Drip-drip-"

Cheng Rongjun immediately took out his mobile phone from his pocket and saw that it was a string of unfamiliar numbers, his wife asked who it was, he made a gesture of booing, in fact, he didn't know who it was, maybe it was Mingyan's child calling.

"Hey, hello, is it Coach Cheng?"

"Hello, I'm Cheng Rongjun. ”

"Haha, it's me, I'm Ah San, old classmate, do you remember me?"

"Ah San?" Cheng Rongjun frowned and thought for a while, but he couldn't think of a classmate with such a nickname "India".

"I sat with you in kindergarten, you forgot? It's only been how many years, you forgot, you're really a noble person. ”

Cheng Rongjun calculated the accounts, he is now forty years old, and he must have been at least thirty years from kindergarten to now, and the ghost remembers what the name of the classmate was at that time, and it was not from a village.

But these are not the point, the point is what the other party wants to express when he turns a corner, it can't be just an ordinary classmate catching up, right? So he pretended to recognize this "Indian" classmate, and laughed: "It turned out to be you kid, how is it? How are you mixing up all these years?"

"Don't mention it, it's hard to say. The voice over there suddenly changed its tone: "I said old classmate, why do I think you still don't recognize me?"

"Where, where, of course I remember you, we were playing with mud back then, I was just a little strange that I would get a call from you in the middle of the night. ”

"Who's to say it isn't, if I hadn't had something on my mind, I wouldn't have called you at this time, hehe, I wouldn't disturb you and my sister-in-law, would I?"

The wife listened to their conversation as just a common reinstatement between friends, so she went back to the house and went to bed first.

Cheng Rongjun looked at his wife's distant shadow, and then asked into the phone: "No, how can it be? Don't you know, your sister-in-law is a very reasonable person." ”

"That's good, that's good. Ah San paused for a moment before saying, "Rongjun, I encountered an incident today, and I didn't want to say it in my heart, but I really can't sleep, you can help me sum it up." ”

"If you believe me, I'll just say it, and I'll give you an analysis. ”

"Okay. Ah San recalled the events that happened during the day, including the attempted robbery of the Bazi Hu, the pursuit of the child, the rescue of the child, the day began to rain, etc., and after speaking, he did not forget to tell Cheng Rongjun that he must not call the police.

Cheng Rongjun promised him, but he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, the two children described by Ah San on the other end of the phone, among them, the boy is very similar to Mingyan, doesn't the announcement say that Yan is not only a deserter but also suspected of kidnapping a little girl? It just so happened that the child was also followed by a little girl, and the phone call last night, although he was hung up halfway, but the attentive wife still heard that Mingyan was also raining heavily, could it really be him?

Moreover, Ah San also said that last night a group of young people from other places came by long-distance bus to inquire about the whereabouts of the two children, and he naturally would not betray the two poor children, but it is difficult to ensure that those guys who see money can do anything for money.

These people were either sent by the police or the military, the purpose was to arrest Ming Yan, Cheng Rongjun guessed in his heart, he asked Ah San not to tell anyone about this matter, and when it was dawn, he immediately rode a motorcycle to Emerald Mountain.

……

It rained all night, and everything in the world was washed clean by the rain, and not long after dawn, the sun turned on, and the warm sunlight shone on the earth, and the creatures in the mountains were full of life.

Mingyan was in a coma all night last night, and when he woke up this morning, he felt much more comfortable, and his limbs were full of strength, this feeling was very strange, like the bone marrow in his body had been thoroughly cleaned, and his body was light when he walked.

Listening to Xiaolan, after he fell into a coma last night, the white ape took a pill and forced him to take it, Xiaolan wanted to stop it at that time, but how could she, a nine-year-old child, be the opponent of such a behemoth monster, people waved their hands casually, and she flew out like a piece of paper.

To be honest, it's only been a night, Mingyan is like a nobody, Xiaolan also feels incredible, it seems that she misunderstood the white ape's kindness, so she apologized to the white ape when she woke up, and Mingyan also thanked the white ape.

This is a magical monkey, its way of life is strikingly similar to that of humans, such as three meals a day is very regular, running in the morning, brushing his teeth, washing his face and making breakfast, going out to forage for food at noon and preparing lunch, and it is the same at night, and it also knows that when the sun is high, it takes out the hides that cover its body at night and dries them.

The only drawback is that it can't speak, and Ming Yan can't know its past, but he is sure that there must have been many wonderful and bumpy stories in the white ape.

By the way, the wound on its leg still hasn't healed, and I can vaguely see that the wound is still bleeding, Mingyan is very puzzled, and says in his heart Since it can heal my injury, why don't you save yourself?

"Brother Monkey, let me see your injuries, is it okay?" he said, sitting at the entrance of the cave, looking back at the busy white ape.

"Quack-quack-"
