Chapter 40: Followers
Zhang Shanhai negotiated with the two old ghosts while driving the cow to the mountain, but when he turned around, he found that Zhang Shanmad had been following behind him.
"Huh? Crazy, why don't you go back when you wake up? Zhang Shanhai asked
"I, no...... Place to go. Zhang Shanmad said, Zhang Shanmad is so good, it seems that his speech is a little unfavorable.
"If you have nowhere to go, you can't follow me! I was only five years old. Are you following me? Zhang Shanhai asked.
"I, with you." Zhang Shan said madly, it is extremely simple, it is just one word, and two words collapse outward.
"You're not afraid that people will laugh at you?" Zhang Shanhai asked.
"I, with you." Zhang Shanmad still repeats that sentence.
"Okay. If you follow me, I will always give you a bite to eat. Zhang Shanhai said helplessly.
Zhang Shanhai drove the cow to Caiyun Mountain, and Zhang Shanmad actually followed him honestly.
When the villagers saw this, they were so surprised that they almost didn't drop their eyes.
"Hey, come and see, the madman is actually following behind the Yunyang cub. What do you think is going on? ”
"That's right. Even the mountains and seas are a little weird. It's not like a normal child, and I won't be like a crazy person in the future! ”
"I heard that the madman used to be caught by a ghost in the Yin Master's grave before he became crazy, and Shanhai heard that he also got a ghost on his body, do you think it was the ghost who controlled them?"
"It's possible!"
"Quite possibly."
Zhang Yunyang naturally heard the remarks of the people in the production team, although he knew some of his son's situation, but he was still a little uncomfortable.
"The dog is still talking nonsense there, be careful that Lao Tzu deducts your work!" Zhang Yunyang roared, and all the noise disappeared.
"This rabbit cub always does something unexpected, go back and clean you up again." Zhang Yunyang thought to himself.
Zhang Shanhai drove the cow to the mountain, and Zhang Shan's crazy stomach began to growl.
"Hungry." Zhang Shan's crazy mouth broke out again.
"What?" Zhang Shanhai didn't understand.
Zhang Shan said madly, "I'm hungry." This time, he said one more word.
"Don't you usually talk and laugh, sing and dance? How did it become like this now? Zhang Shanhai stared at Zhang Shanhai madly, wanting to find out. But Zhang Shanmad kept silent.
It was a very wonderful scene, a boy in his twenties, looking at a five-year-old boy and asking for food.
"Wait a minute." Zhang Shanhai frowned. At this moment, he began to feel that bringing something was not so popular at all.
"Xiao Huang, hurry up and get a rabbit back." Zhang Shanhai said.
This little yellow dog is worthy of being the descendant of Zhangjiashan's generation of mountain dogs, and in ten minutes, he came back from the woods with a fat gray rabbit.
Zhang Shanhai took out a knife from his pocket, and then took out a box of matches, "You can eat it yourself, right?" ”
Zhang Shanmad nodded, but did not speak.
Zhang Shan carried the rabbit to the creek, peeled off the skin of the hare in three or two strokes, and then took out the water in the hare's belly and threw it directly into the stream.
Although Zhang Shanmad was very hungry, he was not in a hurry, and broke a few thin bamboos by the stream, and then cut the hare into several pieces and strung them directly on the bamboo strips. After all this was neatly settled, Zhang Shanmad built some stones in a clearing, set up a stove, and then put some dead branches in it. Then I swept some dead leaves with my hands under the fir tree and put them under the firewood to ignite them.
"You're going to get these?" Zhang Shanhai asked strangely.
Zhang Shanmad still just nodded.
"You've been crazy for ten years?" Zhang Shanhai asked in surprise. "Also, you've been crazy for as long as I can remember. Are you eating this every day? ”
Zhang Shan shook his head madly.
"Many people in the production team lost chickens and ducks at home, you did it, right? By the way, can you say something? Zhang Shanhai asked.
"I don't remember." Zhang Shanmad finally said three words.
Zhang Shanhai naturally didn't believe it.
After a while, the rich aroma of barbecued meat spreads through the mountains.
"Salt." Zhang Shan said madly.
"You're asking for a lot." Zhang Shanhai glanced at Zhang Shanmad and complained.
"Salt." Zhang Shanhai seemed to know that Zhang Shanhai had salt in his bag.
"There's salt, there's salt. I'm afraid of you. Zhang Shanhai took out a small packet of salt from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Shanmad. Zhang Shanhai often eats outside, and this small packet of salt is always with him.
Zhang Shanmad put the salt on the leaves, then put some water to dissolve the salt slightly, and then spread it on the rabbit meat.
Zhang Shanmad was not polite, smeared the salt, and ate it by himself.
"Hey, how can you do this, there are children here, and you don't know how to let go. Why do you remember to eat it yourself? Zhang Shanhai asked.
"I'm hungry." Zhang Shan said two words madly, and ate it again.
Zhang Shanhai swallowed a mouthful of saliva from the boss, and picked up a string of hare meat from there in the same way, smeared it with salt, but only after eating a big bite, he was immediately scalded and croaked.
"Scald me, scalded me!" Zhang Shanhai screamed miserably, but the rabbit skewers in his hands were still reluctant to throw them away.
Zhang Shanmad ignored it, while munching on the rabbit meat skewers in his hands, he also stared at the rabbit meat placed on the shelf with his eyes from time to time.
Although Zhang Shanhai looks like an adult, his appetite is still only five years old, and after eating a large piece, he can no longer hold on.
Zhang Shanhai's performance actually made Zhang Shanhai crazy a little strange, "It's really weird." You can only eat so much, it seems, you are really only five years old. ”
Zhang Shanhai rolled his eyes, he didn't bother to pay attention to this madman, his stomach was bulging, and he didn't even want to move.
When he went home, Zhang Shanmad still followed Zhang Shanhai, letting Zhang Yunyang and He Ni look at each other, not knowing what to do.
"Why did you bring him back?" He Ni glanced at Zhang Shanmad and couldn't help asking.
Zhang Shanmad stood behind Zhang Shanhai and didn't say a word, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
"Cub, what about you? Why did you bring him back? He Ni didn't see that Zhang Shanmad had recovered. He Ni didn't know how Zhang Shanshan was crazy, he had been crazy since she married Zhang Jiashan.
"Mother, the madman is already fine, not a madman." Zhang Shanhai said.
"Okay? Well, you should let him go home. If his family knew that he was well, they would not be happy to die. He Ni said.
"I'm afraid I'm not happy." Zhang Yunyang said.
"How so?" He Ni said.
"His parents are dead, and his brothers haven't even left him a door." Zhang Yunyang whispered in He Ni's ear.
Zhang Shanmad is said to have woken up when his parents died, but when his parents' funeral was over, he became crazy again. When his parents were there, there were still people who took care of Zhang Shanmad's food and lodging, and when his parents died one after another, Zhang Shanmad seemed to have lost the meaning of existence. When I walked there, the people in the production team couldn't see it, so they gave me something to eat. But most of the time, no one knows how Zhang Shanmad survived.
"But, what's the matter with him following our cubs?" He Ni said.
"Leave this matter to me, mother-in-law, don't worry. Our cubs are no ordinary children. Zhang Yunyang said.
He Ni had no choice but to nod. Since that night, when the father and son came back with a wild boar, He Ni has already realized that her son is very different from ordinary children. It's just that she still wants her cub to be just an ordinary child.
