The cliff on the east side of Xiake Ridge is sharpened with a ghost axe, showing a right angle of nearly 90 degrees. Beneath the cliff is a 100-meter-high cliff, which is so smooth that there is not even a single protruding rock.

There is a small black hole in the middle of the cliff near the top of the mountain, three feet square, like an eagle's nest in the rock wall.

A small pebble fell out of the black hole and fell silently to a cliff 100 meters deep, shattering its bones.

After about ten minutes, another pebble fell out of the black hole. Then, every ten minutes, a stone would fall from it, making a crisp sound as it shattered.

In the black hole, a boy of seven or eight years old cowered in the corner of the hole, staring at the adult man diagonally opposite him with a pair of frightened eyes.

The adult man lay there weakly, his waist covered in blood with his right hand. A face turned towards the darkness, as if afraid of being pierced by the sunlight shining through the hole.

"Uncle, when will you let me go home?" The boy's eyes were full of pleading: "If I don't come home, my dad will beat me to death." ”

The boy was not afraid of the wounded man at all, he was afraid that if he didn't come home, his father would beat him up.

"Hehe......" The injured man seemed to think it was very funny, and slowly turned his face.

The moment the light from the three-foot hole hit the man's face, the sharpened rock walls were eclipsed.

This man's cheeks are too sharp and angular, all composed of lines as hard as steel, revealing a fortitude that ordinary people can never have. What followed was a strong masculine aura that filled every molecule of oxygen, making the slightly damp cave look dry.

"Little one, how old are you?" The man asked.

The little boy glanced at the man's fierce gaze, quickly lowered his head, and counted them one by one on his fingers.

After about a minute, the boy whispered in a timid voice, "Five and a half years old." ”

"Oh? Five-and-a-half-year-old? A strange color flashed in the man's eyes, and he nodded and continued to ask, "What's your name?" ”

"Xiao Yuanchao." The boy raised his head cautiously, quickly swept it over the man's face, and begged cautiously: "Uncle, it's almost 12 o'clock, can you let me go home?" If I don't come home, my dad will really beat me to death. ”

As he said this, the boy pouted and sniffed, tears welling up in his eyes. But he didn't dare to cry, so he held his breath.

"Xiao Yuanchao, good name, hehe." The man smiled, suddenly his face turned pale, his eyes revealed murderous intent, and he said coldly: "How do you know it's almost twelve o'clock?" ”

The temperature in the cave immediately dropped, and it was as cold as a cold winter moon. Xiao Yuanchao, who was only five and a half years old, shivered fiercely, and his small body shrank back hard, as if the solid rock wall behind him could bring him a sense of security.

"Say! I'll kill you if you don't say anything! The man raised his hand and took out a sharp dagger and put it on Xiao Yuanchao's neck.

Xiao Yuanchao's eyes widened, as if he was stunned, and his eyes were full of fear.

Seeing that the little boy was frightened by himself, the man seemed to be happy and put away the knife with a smile. But Xiao Yuanchao's next sentence made him stunned.

"Uncle, uncle, uncle...... You, you, if you kill me...... I can't go home, my dad will, will, will beat me to death! ”

Xiao Yuanchao curled up in a ball with a pair of small hands holding his little knees, biting his lip, and he didn't dare to wipe the tears that flowed to his mouth, so he could only lick them with his tongue quickly.

"You're not afraid that I'll kill you with a knife?" The man asked curiously.

Xiao Yuanchao shook his head vigorously, nodded vigorously, and then shook his head again and nodded.

"My name is Chang Sheng, but others always like to call me Chang Sheng." The man looked at Xiao Yuanchao with a smile, stretched out a finger and said, "Sue me, what time is it?" ”

"Eleven twenty." Xiao Yuanchao blurted out.

"yes, you've already thrown seven stones, now it's time to throw the eight."

After saying this, Chang Sheng picked up a small pebble and threw it out.

Xiao Yuanchao's eyes widened with tears, and his little face was full of surprise: how did he know how to throw stones?

"You throw a pebble every ten minutes to count the time and send out a distress signal." Chang Sheng looked at his watch and continued: "It's three minutes off, although it's not very accurate, but it's quite good for your age." ”

Chang Sheng suddenly became extremely interested in this boy, you know, the other party is only five and a half years old.

"I'm ......" Xiao Yuanchao paused, and said with fear in his eyes: "If I come home late, my father will beat me to death." ”

This sentence again, Chang Sheng squinted his eyes, he couldn't imagine that a father would scare his son like this, and even be kidnapped by a stranger, all he was worried about was going to be beaten up if he came home late.

"You're not afraid I'll kill you?" Chang Sheng's face once again showed a cold murderous intent, and he wanted to see if this child would be afraid.

"Kill me, am I dead?" Xiao Yuanchao asked with wide eyes.

"Yes, you're dead!" Chang Sheng's tone was fierce and his face was hideous.

"I'm not afraid!"

The neat child's voice reached Chang Sheng's ears, which made him stunned directly.

"My eldest brother, second brother, third brother, and fourth brother are all dead, and if you become a soldier, you have to die, and I will have to be a soldier in the future, so I am not afraid of death." Xiao Yuanchao pouted, blinked his sparkling eyes and said, "Do you have a big brother, a second brother, a third brother, and a fourth brother?" If you had, you wouldn't be afraid of death. ”

Xiao Yuanchao's tear-stained little face was full of childishness, but it was full of seriousness, and the focus on talking about this kind of problem was even ashamed of Chang Sheng. At least he was timid at the age of five and a half, and he was very afraid of death.

"Your eldest brother? Second brother? And the third brother? Fourth brother? ”

"That's right," Xiao Yuanchao wrinkled his little nose and said proudly: "My eldest brother is called Xiao Jiefang, the second brother is called Xiao Zhonghua, the third brother is called Xiao Hongxing, and the fourth brother is called Xiao Xiangqian. But my brothers are dead, and no one buys me Transformers. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Yuanchao pursed his little mouth high, and his two chubby little hands were twisted together, looking very unhappy.

But Chang Sheng was stunned for a moment after hearing these names, and then his face was full of wry smiles. He finally understood why there was a reassembler with a black beret who was biting him so hard, and it turned out that the child he grabbed turned out to be ......

"Let's go. （http：/／.）。 Chang Sheng exhaled heavily and waved at Xiao Yuanchao.

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanchao's eyes lit up, and he ran away without saying a word. But after running two steps, he stopped, and said timidly to Chang Sheng: "Uncle, no one can find this place I brought you to." When the PLA is gone, you go to the hospital. ”

Chang Sheng smiled bitterly and nodded.

"But do you know how to get to the hospital?" Xiao Yuanchao asked.

Without waiting for Chang Sheng to speak, Xiao Yuanchao gestured while thinking about it: "You go down the mountain and go left and then left, then go left, go right, go right, turn a corner and go right, go right, jump over, go right, go right, go right, remember?" ”

Chang Sheng couldn't cry or laugh, and waved his hand vigorously.

"Uncle, are you hungry?" Xiao Yuanchao took out half of the Want Want Snow Cake from his coat pocket and handed it to Xiao Yuanchao, looking at the Snow Cake with a blank eye, and said, "I want to eat when I'm sick." ”

Pinching half a piece of Want Want Snow Cake, Chang Sheng was stunned again, this child gave him too much surprise.

"Remember the road to the hospital, I'm going home, otherwise my dad will have to beat me to death." Xiao Yuanchao reluctantly took his eyes off the Want Want Snow Cake, clicked his mouth, turned around and ran out.

"Hey, Xiao Yuanchao," Chang Sheng stopped Xiao Yuanchao, nodded and said affirmatively: "Your father will definitely not beat you today." ”

Xiao Yuanchao blinked his eyes, shook his head vigorously, and ran away without a trace.

Chang Sheng was the only one left in the cave, he took out the wine jug and took a deep sip, shaking his head helplessly.

But soon, a smile appeared on his face again, and he said to himself: Xiao Yuanchao? Good boy, hehehe......
