Chapter 5: Shanzi

The subject of the night's chat inevitably became a ghost story.

As a person who has real ghost experience, Qin Qing is very quiet all night, and she always feels that this kind of thing is not suitable to talk about here. Most of the ghost stories told by everyone are hearsay, and many of them are like those circulating on the Internet. There are also those who speak of family or relatives or neighbors.

There was a boy who had always been eager to try, and Qin Qing knew at a glance that he must be holding back a story to scare people.

Finally it was his turn, and he immediately said mysteriously: "Aren't we able to pass by the red brick building on our North Campus when we run?" ”

Three times a day, I run around the school, passing through the North Campus. The North Campus is an old campus, and the buildings are all red brick buildings, mainly with two or three floors, and few have more than six floors. It is said that these buildings can be traced back to 1950, which was a turbulent and chaotic era.

"There was originally a lake there, but it was filled in later because there were so many people who threw themselves into the lake at that time. And there's a two-story building over there, isn't it abandoned? I heard that someone hanged himself inside, and it is said that it was an old professor who was forced......"

Because of this story, the next morning when everyone ran by, they couldn't help but look for the two-story building.

In fact, it looks quite strange, although this red brick building is old, most of it has been renovated and put into use, and the graduate dormitory is still here. But the second floor was really unused, the windows on the first floor were all nailed with wooden planks, and the second floor was iron-barred. The gate is still an old red lacquer door, the paint is about to fall off, and the lock is so rusty that you can't see it. Almost all the other red-brick buildings in the vicinity have changed their doors.

Everyone talked about it at breakfast, and the boy said, "That's what my grandfather told me." My grandfather used to be a teacher here, and he retired at that time. Originally, my dad was able to take my father's class, but my dad went to work as a worker, and no one in our family was in this school, and I was also admitted here, and my father saw my notice and told me, my father said that the professor was a good person, and he was sued by the students. ”

There are female instructors here, it seems that they can't control everyone, and there are more than a dozen people asking for leave when they stand in a military posture, and if the male instructor is there, everyone will not dare.

The male instructor came back two days later, and he was covered with low air pressure, which made everyone tense their nerves immediately. When everyone saw the female instructor go to the instructor to report the situation, everyone looked at her pleadingly.

Fortunately, the female instructor saved them face and did not complain. And the male instructor also seemed to be absent-minded and let them go hastily. When it came time to run and stand in the military posture, everyone found that the instructor who had finally come back did not discipline them as much as before.

"The instructor is gone again." The people standing in the sun winked at each other and whispered to each other.

"It's just, he slipped away on his own."

The instructor now doesn't know where to run as soon as they stand in a military posture, at the beginning, the lazy habit that everyone developed in the female instructor has not been completely changed, and some people are not good at standing, who knows that after a while he suddenly appeared again and punished him severely. After that, everyone knew that he was watching from the sidelines, and he didn't dare to mess around.

But everyone also found that the instructor was in a bad mood, he didn't laugh anymore, although he was very fierce when he first came, but slowly he got acquainted with everyone and was not bad, didn't he joke with everyone before leaving?

It seems that the two days off have not been going well. Qin Qing heard someone say that the coach was dumped while eating, alas, it hurts to fall out of love.

Two days later, Qin Qing's aunt arrived, she first went to the school doctor to open a note, and then asked the instructor for leave.

So she deliberately arrived at the playground ten minutes early in the morning, and the instructor waited for them on the playground early every day.

Seeing the instructor from a distance, Qin Qing trotted over, and when she ran closer, she saw a phantom squatting at the instructor's feet.

Qin Qing stopped violently!

The instructor noticed it and turned around and beckoned: "You are my soldier, come here, what are you looking for me?" Then he was surprised to see that Qin Qing deliberately made a big circle, avoiding his left and walking to the right before approaching him, which made him look down at his left suspiciously, obviously there was nothing on the ground.

Qin Qing handed over the fake note, and the instructor glanced at it hastily, "Oh, then you can rest today." "I was so happy that I was granted leave.

When he returned the strip to Qin Qing, he suddenly asked, "What's on my left?" ”

was stared at by the instructor's gaze, which seemed to be insightful, and almost made Qin Qing confess. The soldier seems to have his own aura of light.

But she still held back, mainly because this kind of "superstitious" thing seemed particularly wrong.

The instructor didn't say anything when he saw her, nor did he ask questions, and waved her away.

When it was time to run, the instructor called Qin Qing down to stand with him and waved his hand: "Ready!" Run! The classmates who ran away all twisted their necks and stared at Qin Qing with envy and hatred.

The instructor didn't run, he just stood in place, and Qin Qing had to accompany him to "punish the station".

The instructor especially noticed that the girl was still standing to his right, and he didn't say anything.

After breakfast, in the morning, it is a military posture. Originally, I still had to learn military physical boxing, but the instructor said that he would not teach them to reduce the difficulty. Someone told the truth during the evening chat: "Isn't the instructor lazy?!" ”

When standing in a military posture, Qin Qing could be regarded as knowing where the instructor was this time. He was squatting on the edge behind the flower bed, just squatting on the narrow edge of the flower bed, still squatting on tiptoe, Qin Qing was tired for him. Squatting like this, you can just be blocked by the trees in the flower bed, and you can see the student team standing in a military posture on the playground.

Qin Qing sat beside the instructor and could see it clearly, at this time, she especially wanted to tear a tear of sympathy for the students in the team, because as soon as everyone moved, the instructor's expression would change, and it looked particularly sinister.

It's embarrassing to sit like this all the time, so Qin Qing just looked at the instructor from the sky and the earth...... The phantom beside him.

The phantom still squatted to the left of the instructor, and its outline was clearer in the shade: it was a beautiful wolfdog, squatting there in a particularly beautiful posture, with its head held up.

Qin Qing found a topic, "Instructor, what did you do for the two days off?" "Before this, there was nothing around the instructor, where did he recruit this dog?

The instructor's words were a little far: "When I first joined the army, I was assigned to raise pigs, and the pig food I made was good, and the pigs liked to eat it, all of them had fat heads and big ears, and I also bathed them and let them go out." ”

Qin Qingyun listened in a fog.

"Later, I couldn't stand it anymore when I killed the pigs." The instructor sighed, "They killed in the house, and I cried outside." My captain saw that I couldn't do this, so he asked me to get a dog. ”

Qin Qing listened more seriously.

"We have dogs that are well cared for, food and drink, and training. I've also loved dogs since I was a child, and I also have dogs in my hometown, so big. The instructor gestured, "But there are more dogs in the army than in my hometown, I have liked big dogs since I was a child, and I have always wanted to raise a big dog that can be taken out to hunt." He smiled at Qin Qing, "There are foxes in the mountains in my hometown, so I want to wait for the demobilization in the future and raise a dog to catch foxes in the mountains." ”

"I have two of them, one is called Shanzi and the other is Will. A foreign name and a Chinese name, a combination of local and foreign. The instructor joked, and Qin Qing was amused.

"Later, after selection, Shanzi was defeated." The instructor sighed, a little depressed. "I want to send Shanzi back to my hometown, where there are many mountains and big places, let it run as it pleases. My dad was also willing to raise it for me first, so I sent the mountain back. ”

"I can only go back once a year, sometimes I may not be able to go back for a whole year, I can't go back to a mission, I have been back twice in the past four years, but Shanzi has always remembered me, and before the car I took arrived at the entrance of the village, Shanzi ran out of the house to meet me."

Qin Qing looked at the phantom of the dog, it turned out that its name was Shanzi.

The instructor's eyes gradually turned red, "Last time my dad called me and said that Shanzi ran to catch foxes in the mountains and didn't come back, I asked my dad to find someone to go up the mountain to find them, and give them money to find them." Then my dad said that Shanzi was caught in the mountain by a beast trap, and he was rescued, but his stomach was broken, and the veterinarian in the village would not look at it. ”

Although Shanzi's soul here meant that it was dead, Qin Qing couldn't help but eagerly say, "Send it to the city!" ”

"I sent it, and I drove it out on the same day, but the pet hospital over there didn't dare to save it. I said let them send it to the army, and the veterinarians on the army's side are good. The instructor wiped his tears with the back of his hand, "The veterinarian in our team also said that he couldn't save it, so he could only relieve the pain." I went to accompany Shanzi for the last two days and sent him away before coming back. ”

"When it saw me, it tried to stand up, and it licked me, and its tongue was white." The instructor's tears were falling down, and he didn't wipe them anymore.

Qin Qing was silent, and after a while, she walked to the left, reached out and touched Shanzi's head and said, "Here." ”

The instructor wiped out a handful of tears and snot, looked at her with red eyes, didn't ask much, didn't say much, and stretched out his hand to put it in the most familiar position, "Shanzi?" ”

Shanzi's phantom turned to look at him.

"It's watching you." Qin Qing said, and then added: "It has been following you, and it squats when you stand, and it is very well-behaved." ”

The instructor broke down in tears again, he tried to calm down, wiped his tears and said, "Shanzi, does it hurt?" ”

Qin Qing squatted down to look at Shanzi's belly, which was clean and clean, and there was a small belly, and said, "There are no wounds on the body, and it is quite fat." ”

"That's fine, that's good." The instructor smiled all of a sudden, and said: "It's skinny in my house, my dad is reluctant to feed it meat, I let my dad feed it an egg every day, my dad only feeds steamed bread and rice in addition to eggs, or radish and cabbage, it will steal the chickens in the village to eat, my dad said that he will lose more than 1,000 yuan just for the chicken." ”

The instructor seemed to regard Qin Qing as a master outside the world, and asked her, "How long can Shanzi follow me?" ”

Qin Qing: "I don't know. ”

The instructor said, "Shall I overdo it?" ”

"I really don't know about this......," Qin Qing explained, "I've only seen it once." "The last time it was the upper body.

The instructor said with some regret, "I want to see it too." ”

Qin Qing really didn't know if the soul of a dog could make people get on their bodies.

However, when running the next morning, the instructor also let Qin Qing rest, and the two stood in the shadows together. Since yesterday, the instructor has been standing under the eaves or in the shade of a tree from a distance when he stands in a military posture and when he runs.

"I had a dream yesterday." The instructor said.

Qin Qing immediately looked at the instructor's side, Shanzi was still there.

"In the dream, I went with Shanzi to hunt foxes in the mountains of our hometown, and I also specially taught Shanzi to avoid traps, and there are a few places where people in the village love to set traps, and I teach it to avoid those places." The instructor felt very relieved, although he was a step late, he saw Shanzi again.

"It's here, isn't it?" He asked Qin Qing.

"Yes." Qin Qing looked at Shanzi and said strangely, "Is it trained not to be distracted?" It doesn't seem to react to me. ”

The instructor was particularly proud and said, "That's it!" What if a cat runs out of the mission and the military dog chases after it? It can't respond to the orders of people other than its master, and it must have a strong ability to resist interference from the outside world! ”

"So how did it lose the election? It's so well-behaved. ”

The instructor hated that iron could not be made of steel, and said, "It is especially edible and easy to grow meat!" It's because it's too fat! The weight slows it down, and as a result, it is at the bottom of the task to complete the task! You know how humiliated I was! They all say that I fed the dog as a pig! I'm still being called to feed the pigs! It's all about it! As he spoke, he looked viciously and lovingly at the empty place at his left foot.

Qin Qing saw that Shanzi's ears moved! It's like it's heard! Immediately pointed at it and said, "This ear has moved!" Turn! ”

The instructor jumped up for joy and exclaimed, "Every time I say it's like this!" The little bunny can understand human speech! ”

After that, until the end of the military training, the instructor could dream of Shanzi every night. Sometimes when they were still in the army, the instructor always gave Shanzi more training in order to lose weight.

"Will can eat and rest, it has to practice. You don't know how bad it was going to be back then! The instructor now likes to pull Qin Qing to talk about Shanzi, of course, her training doesn't need to be practiced, so that her classmates ask her, "How did you bribe the instructor?" "He's your relative, right?"

Qin Qing knew that the instructor just wanted to know a little more about Shanzi's reaction, and she said, "It's lying down now, it's quite aggrieved." ”

The instructor reached out and touched the mountain like he had been used to thousands of times, even if it was air, and the position where he touched it was not wrong at all.

"One time he was so hungry that he ran to steal the pig's food, and while I was eating, one of my brothers called out to me: "The instructor cleared his throat and imitated: "The dog you fed has come to eat the pig's food!" ”

Qin Qing smiled, and the instructor sighed deeply, "At that time, I was almost laughed to death, and some people asked me if I detained the dog's meat and opened a small stove by myself, and since then I don't dare to starve it anymore." As he spoke, he lifted it up into the void and slapped it lightly twice.

Shanzi pressed his ears and looked up at him.

Qin Qing said it to the instructor, and the instructor smiled very satisfied.

After that, the military training was over, and the instructor left, he often contacted Qin Qing, and every time he talked about him and Shanzi in his dreams. A year later, he sent a letter to Qin Qing, saying that he had never dreamed of Shanzi since he returned to the army, but he wanted to pretend that Shanzi was still there, and he wanted to talk to people about Shanzi, so he kept pretending to dream of Shanzi.

"I knew it was gone, and it was relieved to see me and Will gone. I didn't expect that I would remember so many things about Shanzi, and I am very happy to be able to tell you so much, and I thank you very much. Thank you, if it weren't for you, I would never have known that Shanzi was by my side. Thank you. ”

"Shanzi was taken back to my hometown, and my father buried it in my family's cemetery, saying that it was a member of the family. When I went back to my hometown today, I went to see it. ”
