Mu Xingfu is a "child raised by a nun", so she is treated as an outlier and can't make friends, she was also sad about it, and felt sorry for herself, until she saw the existence of the dumb girl. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The dumb girl is about the same age as Mu Xingfu, she can't speak from birth, and she remarried with her mother when she was eight years old, and she lives in a dilapidated house not far from Ganxiao Temple. The stepfather was a rough man, who loved to drink, gamble, and beat people. The dumb girl's house was the only way for Mu Xingfu to go to school, and when she passed there, Mu Xingfu noticed the envious gaze of the dumb lady - the dumb girl couldn't speak, and she was a girl, and her stepfather couldn't think of sending her to school at all.

The envy of the dumb girl made Mu Xingfu realize his luck for the first time.

And often, when passing by there, Mu Xingfu would hear the sound of the dumb girl's stepfather cursing and beating her, and the dumb girl's helpless and desperate wails made her unbearable to listen, often covering her ears and trotting away, and for a while even began to refuse to go to school, just afraid of hearing such a sound again.

But as time went on, she slowly got used to it, or rather, became numb.

In the summer, I saw the dumb girl staggering in the sun, her lips chapped and her skin dark.

In winter, I saw the dumb lady barefoot and washing clothes by the river in clothes full of holes.

When I went to school in the morning, I saw a dumb lady coming down from the mountain with a large bundle of firewood on her back.

In the evening, I saw the dumb lady picking up rotten leaves or leftovers discarded by others on the side of the street, and she was hungry and thirsty to stuff the smelly food into her mouth.

I often see the dumb lady with injuries on her body, blue and purple, and she walks with a limp......

She gradually became numb to all this, but she was always afraid of the roar of her dumb stepfather, as long as she encountered the scene of her stepfather abusing and beating the dumb girl, she would quickly walk away, hiding in a corner of the Ganxiao Temple, covering her ears for a long time and not daring to come out.

If Mu Xingfu's misfortune is just unpopular and often pointed at, then the misfortune of the dumb girl is even heavier. Her physical defects, disgraceful mother, and brutal stepfather make her one of the "toys" for children. The town's children often chased her in droves, insulting and mocking her for throwing stones, and sometimes snatched the leftovers she had worked so hard to pick up, and mischievously scattered them all over the streets.

It was impossible for the dumb lady to fight, she could only bear it in silence, and then carefully pick up the scraps on the ground after the children were gone - those scraps were used to feed the pigs, but Mu Xingfu knew that sometimes the dumb lady also used them to satisfy her hunger.

On the first day of junior high school, Mu Xingfu carried a futon to report - junior high school can board, and only on weekends will she return to Ganxiao Temple.

While waiting for the train at the station, she saw the dumb lady rushing out of a corner, looking panicked, and screaming with her mouth wide open, but it was still an illegible hoarseness.

Mu Xingfu recognized those people as hooligans in the town, who helped the casinos watch the casinos, often beating up those who couldn't afford to gamble on the street, and sometimes rushing into someone's house in groups, searching for cash, smashing furniture, and making people turn upside down.

Those people grabbed the dumb lady and couldn't help but say that it was a punch and kick, and there was an unbearable curse on his mouth, Mu Xingfu was so frightened that he took a few steps back, and the whole person stayed there.

In fact, it wasn't just Mu Xingfu alone, there were people in a circle around him at that time, but they all maintained a strange silence, watching those people commit violence to the dumb girl.

The dumb lady dodged and begged for mercy from those people, but it had no effect, and in the end, she broke free with a scream, knelt down in front of the crowd of onlookers, kowtowed heavily, and the sound of her head hitting the ground made Mu Xingfu dizzy for a while.

The dumb lady was crying for help, but everyone was silent.

The hooligans quickly caught the dumb girl, who struggled a few times at first, but after being beaten hard, finally hung her hands weakly, and her eyes changed from desolation and panic to gloom and despair.

Mu Xingfu didn't dare to look at how those people took away the dumb girl, as early as when the dumb girl kowtowed, she had already covered her ears and closed her eyes, pretending that she was in another place, seeing nothing and hearing nothing.

That was the last time Mu Xingfu saw the dumb girl.

When she came back from vacation a week later, there was no one left on the street or in the broken house, and she didn't know who to ask.

It wasn't until more than a month later that she overheard that the dumb lady had died.

On the morning of the third day after being taken away by those men, her body was found on the street.

The whole body is ****, there is almost no place without wounds on the body, and the joints of the limbs are broken, like a mud doll that has been tired of playing, and it is discarded there at will.

From that day on, Mu Xingfu began to have nightmares every night. As a member of the cold-eyed bystanders, Mu Xingfu hated himself. She often recalled the scene of the dumb lady kowtowing to everyone in despair and begging for help, if she could have been a little brave at that time, even if it was just to say a useless word of justice for the dumb girl, it would be better than just watching her be taken away.

But she didn't do anything!

If she was given another chance, she would secretly bring food to the hungry dumb girl during those long days, and her clothes and shoes would be distributed to the poor child, and she would even teach the dumb girl to recognize a word or two, even if it was just the dumb girl's name......

But she didn't do anything after all!

She was just like other children, she stayed away from the dumb girl, and was especially afraid of it, and plugged her ears, closed her eyes, and didn't listen or ask about all the injustices and misfortunes that the dumb girl encountered.

The nightmare about the dumb girl made her sleepless at night, getting thinner and thinner, and finally fell seriously ill.

The host asked the reason, went to the dumb girl's house to ask for an old dress of the dumb girl, built a simple clothes mound for her outside the Ganxiao Temple, took the master in the temple to do a simple ritual, and recited the death mantra for the poor child.

The host said that the dumb girl had passed away in bliss, and she no longer had to suffer all the suffering in the world.

The host's relief finally made Mu Xingfu let go of the burden in his heart, he was cured, and the nightmare was gone, but the guilt of the dumb girl was always buried deep in his heart, like a thorn that could not be pulled out, and he didn't know when it would come back again, which made Mu Xingfu feel a sting.

It was the death of the dumb girl that made Mu Xingfu faintly realize: weak compassion is actually no different from cruelty.

It was already completely dark, and the food on the table had cooled, but Xue Ying didn't move. No matter how Qiaoya persuaded her, she just couldn't eat it.

Who was the girl who was besieged at the ferry terminal? Can Zhao Zhuangtou successfully save her back?

If Zhao Zhuangtou failed to bring her back......

Xue Ying shuddered, not daring to think further.

She'd missed it once, and if she was wrong, I'm afraid no amount of the Death Spell would be able to free her from the nightmare.

"Miss, it's cold, put on a dress." Qiaoya brought her a shawl and put it on her.

Xue Ying didn't react originally, but there seemed to be some movement outside the door, Qiaoya had good ears, and just turned her head after hearing it, Xue Ying had already rushed out.
