Zhou Wanwan took a few steps back, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped her hands clean, looking at Zhou Xia's gaze without a trace of emotion.

"Evening Week! Whoever dislikes me, you are not qualified to dislike me! Zhou Xia's face was distorted, and her eyes were cracked, "You think you are cleaner than me?" Others don't know where you were taken by Crazy Liu, I know! How's it going, does it taste like a man? You're not dead, aren't they getting even harder?! You look like you're really recruiting, and someone wants to ...... when you die."

The door was kicked down with a bang, and the dust that suddenly shone into the pillar of light in the room fled in panic, and before the flying sawdust settled, Zhou Yang had already stepped in front of Zhou Xia and gave her two loud slaps.

Zhou Chen came over and hugged Zhou Wanwan and walked out quickly, without looking at Zhou Xia.

Dunzi stood at the door like Shen Guodong, his fists were bruised, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Zhou Wanwan didn't ask about the rest of the matter, and Zhou Yang refused to mention it to her.

It's too vicious and dirty, they can't bear to let their sister know.

Zhou Xia refused to talk about it anymore, she cursed Zhou Wanwan with a cruel smile: "I live without people and ghosts, don't think about it!" She'll be worse than me someday! I will die until this day! It's worth my death! ”

Shen Guodong locked himself up with Zhou Xia for a whole day, no one knew what he did, and in the end, there was still no progress.

Zhou Xia's mind has been completely eroded by hatred, the pain is only a temporary torment for her, the demon in her heart has turned her into a sluggish walking corpse, and only the pleasure of revenge can make her eyes light up. Nothing else made sense to her.

The current Zhou Xia, in a sense, is really crazy.

And so it all came to a standstill.

All summer. Zhou Wanwan has been staying in Grandpa Shen's small courtyard, and he has never gone out of the gate of the dry rest house.

It was another autumn when the forests were dyed with red leaves, and Zhou Xia's matter was also over.

Shen Guodong contacted a psychiatric hospital in the province and sent Zhou Xia and Liu Maniac there.

The psychiatric hospital was a place specially opened by the government to accept the severely dangerous mentally ill, and the people who were imprisoned there were extremely crazy and dangerous, and almost all of them had lives on their hands.

"Don't you like to pretend to be crazy? Then you go with a real madman! Shen Guodong and Zhou Xia have been fighting for months. Patience has long been exhausted, "You think we can't do anything about you if you're crazy?" Zhou Xia, sometimes you can't die if you want to. That's real hell. ”

Shen Guodong walked away indifferently, and the staff wearing protective clothing lassoed Zhou Xia with an iron ring with a long pole, and dragged her into a car surrounded by iron railings like an animal.

"Don't let her die, and don't let her live too easily." Shen Guodong shook hands with the people sent by the hospital. "Say hello to Uncle Han on my behalf."

"Don't worry. We know how to do it. The little leader sent by the psychiatric hospital dealt with it cautiously, "Dean Han has already explained, from now on, we will record anything she says, and if anything is wrong, we will notify you immediately." ”

The transport vehicle, which was stronger than the prisoner car, pulled Zhou Xia away.

The lives of Zhou Wanwan's brothers and sisters have also returned to normal.

The danger is still there, but they can't live forever in fear because of this, "I'm afraid they won't come!" When Lao Tzu came, let them know what it was to die! ”

Shen Guodong's words are so. But he said that he would not let Zhou Wanwan go to school anymore.

Zhou Wanwan basically spent the remaining half of her nine-year-old year without leaving home.

In May 1970, the land of the north was fresh green. The grass grows and the warbler is full of vitality, the crisis and clouds that shrouded the hearts of the five brothers and sisters of the Zhou family slowly dissipated, and life gradually returned to the relaxed and warm of the past, and Zhou Wanwan could finally go out.

"When is there no danger? Just for this, can you lock up the little girl for the rest of your life? You're not careful, you're choking! Is not confident! ”

Of course, Grandpa Shen likes to accompany him every night, but as a ten-year-old child, he is locked up at home every day, and he has to be careful when he goes out of the yard, which is also too careful.

"Who doesn't have a playmate for a kid this young? She is now painting seven or eight hours a day, and in the future, she will really become a great painter, and that is not something to be happy about! ”

Children have to play, jumping high and happy every day, in Grandpa Shen's heart, this is more important than getting ahead.

Zhou Wanwan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with staying in Grandpa Shen's courtyard, she could see her brothers every day, there were two grandfathers at home, Uncle Zhang and his wife, guards, drivers, guards, people came and went not lonely, and the environment where she could concentrate on painting, there was really nothing to find fault with.

In the last year or two, Zhou Wanwan has become more and more obsessed with painting. She doesn't have to do anything in her life to have no worries about food and clothing, and even as long as she wants, she can do very high results in many fields.

But it's all about space. It had nothing to do with her own efforts.

Space is almost omnipotent, but art alone can't help her take shortcuts.

She hopes that in this life, she can do what she really likes, rely on her own efforts to make achievements step by step, do not take shortcuts, and experience the joy and satisfaction of creation bit by bit.

So Zhou Wanwan is even more obsessed with painting. This art concentrates almost all the aura in the depths of the human soul, is full of creativity, and can surprise people everywhere, which makes her obsessed and addicted to it.

Zhou Yang also began to worry about his sister's state. She became more and more quiet, sitting there painting for hours, often looking at a flower and a tree with big eyes blinded and not knowing what she was thinking, she was really locked up for too long, and the children's freshness and naughtiness were almost worn out.

Zhou Yang began to take turns to take Zhou Wanwan out to play in a planned way, trying to find time to accompany her every day, and even put her school back on the agenda.

Zhou Wanwan doesn't care about any of this, she tries to cooperate with her brothers in whatever they want to do, so that they can rest assured that she is happy herself, which is not forcing herself.

So when Zhou Chen proposed to take her to the cultural center on the weekend. Zhou Wanwan happily agreed.

Suilin County Cultural Center Zhou Wanwan went to the previous life. At that time, she was still a high school student from the countryside, and when she heard that the cultural center could borrow books to read, she and a few classmates went to the small library of the cultural center to borrow books.

There are only two rooms of borrowing rooms. After the baptism of the four old and * guards, there were only more than 100 worn-out and broken books left, but they were regarded as treasures by these children from the countryside, and they were so surprised that they couldn't wait to grow in them.

At that time, every weekend, a few of them could stay in the gloomy library for a day with a dry biscuit, and they couldn't even drink saliva. But happiness can not be closed, and people will never leave.

In this life, Zhou Wanwan stepped on the land of the cultural center again, but he entered its dormitory area first.

The staff dormitory of the cultural center is a three-row plaster bungalow in the backyard. Two for each married family, and one for single.

Because Zhou Chen was not a regular employee, when he came, the dormitory was divided again, so he temporarily vacated a room for him in a row of houses next to the warehouse where props were placed.

The good thing is that the room is large and bright. Outside the door is a towering ancient tree. Birds chirping, green trees, the environment is very nice and quiet, and there is absolutely no one to disturb you at ordinary times.

The disadvantage is that you can't fire. Next to the warehouse, fire prevention first, when moving in, the curator came to check, not only can not open a little open fire. Even smoking is not allowed.

Fortunately, Zhou Chen didn't smoke, so the curator saved snacks.

Zhou Chen walked in with Zhou Wanwan all the way. Greet every colleague you meet, polite and thoughtful and warm and friendly, and it's very good to be popular at first sight.

Zhou Wanwan also got a lot of praise and a handful of melon seeds and a few pieces of candy because of Zhou Chen's good popularity, and the brother and sister returned to Zhou Chen's dormitory and happily shared snacks.

Zhou Chen's dormitory has a large glass window and a large workbench, and Zhou Chen, a student with mild cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder, will keep the environment in order and spotless wherever he goes, and even the yellow spots and marks on the wall that can't be wiped off are repainted by himself, and the paintings given to her last night are hung there to cover them.

"It's all white, why are you still hanging the painting?" Zhou Wanwan sat at Zhou Chen's desk and looked at this room, it was their brothers and sisters who came to help him clean it up at that time, so they were very familiar.

Zhou Wanwan didn't mind Zhou Chen using her painting to block the stains, but the whole room had been repainted, why didn't he still look at this piece well?

"The background color of this piece is darker than other places, and there is a difference in the color of the big white brush, which is very incongruous when you look at it in different lights from a few angles." Zhou Chen explained to his sister very seriously.

Zhou Wanwan blinked her eyes and didn't speak, second brother, are you too time? It's okay, what do you do when you change several angles and study a stain under different lights? Is that the master's ink treasure?

"Who's that old man at the door?" Zhou Wanwan didn't want to discuss the stains from different angles and lights with Zhou Chen, and she suddenly felt a little difficult to understand her second brother's world.

"Which old man?" Zhou Chen gave his melon seeds to Zhou Wan a little later, and brought all her sugar. She had already eaten a piece of candy this morning and couldn't eat it anymore.

"It's that bald, stocky, silly little old man who knows you well and pretends not to know you." Zhou Wanwan directly dismantled her second brother.

"How do you tell?!" Zhou Chen, who has been clever and smart since childhood, is rarely so surprised.

"It's very easy." Zhou Wanwan paused, glancing at the candy that was taken away by Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen thought about it, but still felt that he couldn't break the rules he had set, "Sugar can't be given to you, and when you go back at night, you can paint for half an hour more." ”

Zhou Wanwan was not only controlled to eat sweets, but even the painting time was strictly controlled. Never more than four hours a day, the rest of the time you are not allowed to do anything, just do one thing, play!

Zhou Wanwan was happy, and immediately explained Zhou Chen's doubts, "First, you greet anyone, just nod to him." This is very abnormal. Moreover, he still looks at the yard of the warehouse, you go back to the dormitory every day, you should always meet him in and out, you are not familiar with each other, this is unreasonable. ”

Zhou Chen thought for a moment and nodded solemnly.

"Second, when the old man saw you, he squinted his eyes and let off the thief's light, and he pretended to be cold with a big bald head, and his acting skills were too poor, and anyone with a heart could see it at a glance."

Zhou Chen thought for a moment and sneered, "Indeed." ”

"Thirdly, when your colleagues saw me, they all said, 'Whose child is this, it's so good-looking', and he didn't look at me after a few glances, but looked at you with two thieves, either he thinks you are better looking than me, or you have something on you that interests him more, so he doesn't look at me."

Zhou Wanwan shook the small hair curls on her head, and her big eyes deliberately winked at Zhou Chen, "You can't be better looking than me, so you must have some secret to hide from others." ”

Zhou Chen was stunned for a moment, laughed and rubbed his sister's little curly hair.

"Master Huo used to be a professor of history at the University of Ontario, and he was knocked down for several years, first feeding pigs on a pig farm on the outskirts of our county, and then he was transferred to see the warehouse."

Ontario was the best comprehensive university in their province, most famous for its history department, and was home to some of the country's leading academics at the time.

Of course, now they are all knocked down, and I don't know where to farm and raise pigs and look at the warehouse.

After Zhou Chen finished speaking, he looked at his sister waiting for the next step, pulled the chair closer, and the brother and sister whispered head to head:

"He found a lot of good things in the warehouse next to him, among them is a long knife from the Warring States period, you don't know how majestic and beautiful it is!" Zhou Chen was as excited as a child who had found a treasure, "We are trying to repair a set of small chimes during this time, and I am his assistant, and he has taught me a lot of things. ”

Zhou Wanwan took a deep breath. If this is discovered, it will have to be criticized and imprisoned.

"I know it's dangerous and I've been very careful. We all started after 12 p.m. Cover the windows and hide under the covers with a flashlight. This yard is not visited during the day, and it is safer at night, so don't worry. ”

When Zhou Chen said this, there was a small light in his eyes. It was hidden very deeply, but Zhou Wanwan felt that this light was like a bright light that lit Zhou Chen, making his whole person different.

It is the eyes of an artist who is immersed in his own world, persistent, intoxicated, happy and selfless.

Zhou Wanwan knew that she couldn't stop Zhou Chen. She couldn't bear to stop it.

Just as she likes to paint, Zhou Chen's obsession with ancient weapons and instruments has also been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and Zhou Wanwan understands this love for life and death.

"Let's invite Grandpa Guo to come over and eat melon seeds, right? I also have peanuts and small twist flowers in my bag. Zhou Wanwan proposed with a smile.

Zhou Chen thought about it and nodded in agreement.

My sister is right, it's too abnormal for him to pretend not to know Master Huo like this, but it is not easy to attract attention when he gets along normally.

Zhou Chen went out to invite Master Huo. Zhou Wanwan hurriedly got busy in Zhou Chen's house.

The windows are covered with a transparent sound and light insulation film, and the light perception is controlled, which only works at night. At night, no matter how much movement or light there is in the house, it looks dark from the outside, and nothing can be seen or heard.

In order to increase the insurance factor, she installed the same equipment on the curtains. Then DNA locks were installed on the doors and windows, and only Zhou Chen himself could open them from the outside.

Walking around the house every night, my brain racing, what other safety measures can be used here? What else did she not expect?

His gaze inadvertently swept over the large built-in wardrobe, and Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up.

Zhou Chen came back alone, "Master Huo said he was going back to change into clean clothes. When you meet a junior for the first time, you have to pay attention to your image. This old man is sometimes quite stupid, which is very interesting. ”

Zhou Wanwan didn't have time to discuss his teacher's personality with Zhou Chen, so he hurriedly pulled Zhou Chen to the big closet before anyone came, "Second brother, when I was looking for clothes just now, I accidentally touched it and found that something was wrong. ”

Zhou Wanwan opened the wardrobe, opened the hanging clothes, and knocked a few times on the solid wood cabinet board that looked very thick and sturdy, and the board was unexpectedly loose.

Zhou Chen moved the board away at Zhou Wanwan's signal, revealing a big dark grid inside.

The dark compartment is hidden in the wall, and the black hole looks not small. Zhou Chen walked in and checked, a long and narrow space, it was quite spacious to hide five or six people.

"With this, it's safer!" Zhou Chen put the cabinet in place and excitedly hugged Zhou Wanwan and turned around, "Mascot!" You are the second brother's little lucky star! (To be continued......)
