Shen Qingshan caught up with his son, who looked back and said suspiciously: "Old ...... What about Lao Shen? ”
"Didn't keep up."
Shen Qingshan said perfunctorily, and when he lowered his head, his eyes looked like two black holes.
……
The sea breeze is cold, and the waves crash on the shore, like silver snakes, like broken flowers, rolling away.
Shen Qingshan took his son to the West Wharf, and someone leaned out behind the reef. Look carefully, it's an acquaintance, and it's a quick usher. Shen Qingshan said excitedly: "Auntie, it's really here." ”
It's Lao Shen's mother.
The old woman's face was like orange, and she had a pair of bright eyes in the folds, and asked, "What about my son?" ”
"He ......" Shen Qingshan choked up, shook his head and said, "Didn't come out." ”
"Oh......"
The old woman sighed, suddenly turned around and ran wildly. Shen Qingshan's face changed, he chased her down in two steps, and said coldly: "I didn't come out, I just didn't come out." Where's the ship? ”
The old woman shook her head and didn't spit out.
"Good."
Shen Qingshan's face turned pale, his arm pressed against the old woman's neck, and he pressed harder and harder, and hissed, "Where is the ship?" Say it and walk together!! ”
The old woman's eyes rolled up and she foamed at the mouth, but she still kept her secret.
"Dad, what are you doing?"
The son stood beside him, and he really didn't understand how his father, who was upright in his heart, became like this, and actually beat an old man in his last years.
"Dad!"
Shen Qingshan was unmoved, and his son Wang Ba generally stretched out his head and bent over, overthrowing Shen Qingshan.
The old woman let out a long breath, and her shoulders trembled violently.
Shen Qingshan didn't dare to look at his son, his eyes turned to the deep sea, which was pitch black and cold. He sat on the beach and whispered, "He's dead, don't wait, that's all I can tell you." If you know where the boat is, say it and let's go together. ”
Turning his head, he stared at the old woman: "If you don't say it, you know, I will still do it, maybe I will kill you." ”
"You lied to me, he didn't die." The old woman screamed.
"Even if you don't want to believe it, you can't change it. Living to this age, have you seen this storm, don't you understand? Shen Qingshan's tone was low, full of exhaustion.
"I don't believe it...... the old woman suddenly burst out and tore Shen Qingshan like crazy: "You lied to me...... You lied to me...... He's alive and alive......"
Talking and scolding, but he couldn't shed half a tear.
She had already dried her tears.
Shen Qingshan pushed it down and got up: "Say, where is the ship." ”
The old woman slowly raised her head and said with a smile: "Since you didn't lie to me, I won't lie to you, I don't know." ”
"What?" Shen Qingshan was shocked, but after nine deaths, he couldn't get out. He is weak, and staying on this island is tantamount to suicide.
"I don't know, I don't know where the ship is. The smuggler told me that at a quarter past four o'clock at the west pier, naturally there was a boat to answer it, and the signal was a light, two long and one short, repeated three times. The old woman had no love, and her tone was insensitive: "You see, where is the ship?" Where are the lights? If you were going to come five minutes ago, you would have come. ”
The smugglers deceived her.
There are no ships at all.
Shen Qingshan was depressed and sat down.
The son was scared, put his arms around his neck, and asked, "Dad, what's wrong?" If there is no boat, there will be no boat, as long as we are alive, we will still have a chance. You forgot? Fight like a man! ”
Fight like a man!!
How could Shen Qingshan forget......
He sneered and raised his hand to touch the back of his son's head.
The corners of his eyes go up and jump like a spring. Shen Qingshan consciously protected his son behind him, and there was a light flickering in the middle of the night, faintly mixed with the sound of gunshots.
"It's a ship!! The old woman cried and grabbed the ground. Shen Qingshan sighed, helped her up, shook his head, and said, "It's not a boat, the lights are on land." ”
When the flower field was devastated by this disaster, the islanders went to investigate, and after they had all the looted goods, the target turned to the fugitives. Shen Qingshan experienced that era, fighting the local tyrants and dividing the fields, and the fields were divided, how could the local tyrants let it go?
"You and I are at the end of fate, listen to my last sentence, don't wait, your son is dead."
Shen Qingshan pulled his son and said that he was about to turn around and leave.
The wind whipped up the dust, and he squinted as the moonlight slanted through the clouds, and the sea shimmered. Shen Qingshan turned around and beckoned to the old woman, pointing and asking, "What kind of place is that?" ”
The old woman is almost half blind, she can't see anything, and because she has been on the island for many years, she has heard about big and small matters. The moonlight formed a hazy band of light in her eyes, and there was a half-cut building at the end of the band.
She said, "That's like...... It seems to be the home of old vegetables. ”
Shen Qingshan was shocked and asked, "Are you sure." ”
The old woman swore an oath: "Sure!! ”
The fire grew closer, and the barking of the dogs was distant and cold in the night.
Shen Qingshan stopped talking and took his son to run wildly towards the moonlit building. ran straight until his chest caught fire, and the fishy smell in his mouth grew stronger before he stopped.
When I got closer, I saw an old dock. Four bald walls, no windows and no roof, only a rotten wood door panel.
Shen Qingshan raised his foot and kicked it, but his chest was seriously injured, and his throat was about to become sweet as soon as he used his strength, so he endured the severe pain and kicked over the door. Suddenly dust rose everywhere, choking him with another cough.
The son's eyes were sharp, he swept it roughly, and said happily: "Dad, there is a boat!" ”
"Go in first."
Shen Qingshan didn't dare to be careless, and took his son into the dock. More than 30 square meters, there is a boat lane in the middle of the house, and a diesel boat is parked under the road. The hull was rusty, and the instrument was full of black holes, and none of them were complete. A thumb-thick rope held the boat to the post, and when the wind and waves hit, the hull shook and the wooden floor creaked. Recite.
Shen Qingshan suppressed his excitement, his adrenaline was working again, and he felt that his strength seemed to have recovered a lot. Open the tank, good news, there is a !!
How do I start? Shen Qingshan searched for a long time and found that there was a keyhole in the bow of the ship, and the key was still used for this broken ship!!
Shen Qingshan's scalp was numb, he didn't understand circuit wiring, and it was impossible to use the line to ignite. He froze suddenly, lightning flashed through his mind, yes, the key!!
On the day Lao Cai died, he helped Lao Cai light a cigarette...... Lao Cai gave him a key!
Shen Qingshan kept digging out his pockets, touching his whole body, and his fingertips were cold to the touch, and there was metal.
Heaven is not endless!
At this time, I think about it, this boat should be the whole property of Lao Cai. When he was dying, he transferred his property to him. At the last moment of his life, Lao Cai Xu was kind, hoping that one day, this young man could use his boat to escape from the sea of suffering.
Shen Qingshan wanted to insert the key into the keyhole, but inserted it four or five times before he could barely hold down his trembling hands.
Chirping...... Rumble......
The hull shook violently, and soon calmed down again. Shen Qingshan was engrossed, taking it one by one, and kept turning the key in his hand.
"Where are you going?"
Suddenly, a cold voice made Shen Qingshan tilt his head slightly. Seeing a short, ugly figure standing in the doorway, the moonlight sent her shadow into the room, small and small, but with a huge head.
I can't see my face, but I know it's an old woman. Shen Qingshan replied, "Go home," and refocused on starting the ship.
The old woman approached with a cold expression and a cold voice: "Where are you going?" ”
Shen Qingshan said irritably: "Where do I go, what's the matter with you?" Be quiet if you want to go, and I'll definitely take you. ”
Chirping...... Thundered......
A breath of darkness erupted, mixed with the pungent smell of diesel, and the boat was finally lit.
"Get on board." Shen Qingshan was extremely excited, and greeted incoherently: "Hurry up...... Before last...... Before last...... Get on board!! ”
The walls of the planks "banged", sawdust splashed, and the moonlight slanted into the ground, blasting a fist-sized hole. Someone is shooting at them!
Shen Qingshan grabbed his son, pressed him to the ground, and squinted his eyes to look out. I didn't know that there were hundreds of people crowded on the beach and running towards them.
The torches are like swimming dragons, reflecting the blackened and bloodthirsty face. The thin man with the gun shot as he ran, causing the old dockyard to leak in all directions, and ricocheting bullets and sparks scurrying around the house.
With a distance of less than 80 meters, it will rush in minutes.
At that point, it would be a luxury to want to die.
"Let's go!! Embarkation!!! ”
Shen Qingshan picked up his son and strode towards the boat. But he stumbled and fell.
A silver handcuff locked the son and the old woman together, and the old woman was vigorously taken down, looked up and sneered at him: "Where are you going?" ”
Where are you going?
Shen Qingshan looked at her with the help of the moonlight, it was a sickly face, with only five irregular black holes left. The black hole squeezed into the middle and said, "Wait for my son." ”
Shen Qingshan's whole body was numb, and a chill passed through his body, and he shuddered: "He...... He's dead!! ”
"No, he's still alive, I heard it, and he told us to wait." The old woman suddenly looked up and smiled at him fiercely.
"He's dead...... He's really dead......" Shen Qingshan burst into tears and cried: "He's dead, ******, he's really dead,!" Yes!!! ”
Shen Qingshan was heartbroken, it's over, it's all over. He couldn't have put his son and the old woman on board, he was too badly injured to do it.
"Wait for my son, he's not dead, he's still alive, he'll be here soon. I heard, he was talking to me. The old woman smiled grimly at him, sparks splashing, bullets from a distance. She didn't hide, just sat on the ground, and held her frightened son tightly in her arms.
The sound of gunshots, shouts of killing, the barking of dogs, the crackling of burning torches.
The old woman suddenly screamed bitterly: "My son can't go, and your son can't go, let's die together...... Let's die together...... Right...... Let's die together!! ”
Shen Qingshan couldn't stop crying, he cried so sloppily for the first time in his life. He took a deep breath, his skin tingling like electricity. The sight swept over, it was a knife, a machete!
He took off his shirt, which was a hurdle vest and was covered in blood. Shen Qingshan covered his face with a hurdle vest, revealing only a pair of eyes.
"Think of something happy and don't hate me." Shen Qingshan was hunched, and he couldn't stand up straight even with all his strength.
The old woman was still laughing: "What? Why don't you let me see your face? You don't want a dying old woman to be the last person to see? She tore Shen Qingshan like crazy, wanting to tear off his face-covering clothes: "Let me look at your face, let me look at you, don't you have a face?" You're shameless!! ”
The wind rose violently on the surface of the sea, and a bolt of lightning split the lead cloud, reflecting the hideous depths of the sea.
The lightning flashed away, and Shen Qingshan's eyes were bright and terrifying, and he fell into darkness in an instant.
The old woman's shrill laughter stopped abruptly, and blood shot out like arrows, landing on Shen Qingshan's chest, burning his soul. The broken palm fell to the ground, jumped twice, and suddenly contracted into a chicken claw.
The son remembers that night, he saw a bloody man standing under the electric light. and an old woman with her neck cut off and a hand missing......
