Sun Jun sighed and slowly opened his mouth

"Ah, that's a long story."

"My hometown is in the western mountains, to be honest, since I was a child, that piece was really poor, remember to be able to eat a piece of meat during the Chinese New Year, our family has to be happy for a long time, and this kind of situation, my family is not unique, this situation is really common in our village."

Because I was really poor and broken, this experience still has an impact on me.

But in recent years, because of national policies, we have also begun to engage in construction, some enterprises began to bid for land acquisition, open factories, at the beginning, everyone got the money, and they could enter the factory to do some fire, everyone was quite satisfied, and they didn't say anything.

But now some enterprises are really not doing personnel, many old things in our village have been demolished by them, and the old people in our village have stopped them from saying that some things cannot be demolished, they are left by their ancestors, but they just don't listen, and say that we are feudal superstition.

I really do everything for money, and the environment has deteriorated, so many of us are really angry now.

When I went back, I walked on the road and met a lot of old folks, and their expressions changed completely when they saw me.

In broad daylight, the streets are lifeless, and some people sit at the door, or stand at the door, and look at people like that, how to say...... It was like watching a dead cat and a dead dog, which made me break out in a cold sweat during the day. But my old house hasn't been demolished yet, so it's still there, and I went back for three or four days and lived there. The first morning, I woke up with a noise.

Because there were still some empty fields in the village, some people set off firecrackers, and just around my house, the firecrackers produced a sulfur smell, which woke me up at once...... At first, I thought it was a fire, but when I looked over, it was a firecracker, and the firecrackers that exploded set some weeds on fire, and all of a sudden a raging fire broke out, but the villagers didn't stop, they started to sprinkle things in these fires. Because I went to Yancheng in college, so after graduation, I also stayed in Yancheng to develop, and my work has improved over the years, and I have also taken over our parents, so my grandparents are still in their hometown, and then my grandparents are gone, and our house has been empty, this time I went back, and it was also about the reason for the demolition, so although I still have an impact on some people in the village, because I haven't seen them for a long time, these people are not familiar with them, I can understand the local dialect, but I can't speak, the key is that they may not understand MandarinSince they were talking too quietly, I asked them, and when they saw me, they didn't speak, but kept looking at me, looking at my hair, and then continued to sprinkle things there. There are also a few old women who, when they see me, think that I am also one of those people in the business, and will throw things on me. I think it might have something to do with this. ”

Hearing this, Shen Fei became interested and hurriedly asked

"Do you know what they're throwing at you?"

Sun Jun smiled awkwardly

"I haven't been back for a long time, so I know what they spilled, if my grandfather was still alive, he might know, he is also very superstitious, let's play with these people!"

Shen Fei nodded when he heard this, this was reasonable, so he asked in a different way

"What do they look like when they spill at you?"

Sun Jun touched his head, frowned, looked like he was trying to remember, and then said suddenly

"I remember, what they sprinkled looked like sand, but it was bigger than the sand, and it was black all over, but I really don't know what it was, I'm sorry, after this happened, my memory was a lot worse, maybe there are some details I forgot to say."

Shen Fei nodded to indicate that it was harmless, and then continued to ask

"Is there anything else the people in the village have done to you besides this?"

Sun Jun fell into a frightened memory

Then he said tremblingly

"Damn, now that I think about it, I think these people in the village also have some problems with their heads, and they also kill cats. This group of people, I just wandered around the village for a while, planning to reminisce about my childhood, and then a few people, as if they saw me, thought that I was raw, so they took out a black cat from the house, and one person pressed its body hard, and then one person picked up a hammer and smashed it on the black cat's head, and the brains came out...... The cat has been kicking around in the process, and then meowing, seeing me trembling, and this group of people don't know how to raise cats, it doesn't look like a precious breed, but it looks very expensive, and it's very beautiful, the whole body is black, there is no stray hair, it's just to write that kind of dirty, the countryside can also understand, but the cat's eyes, I was scared to see, and they smashed it out, like a blue agate, staring at me all the time. They just kept staring at me, and then they smashed the cat with a hammer, and when the cat died, it couldn't die again. I also took a knife out, a kitchen knife, but it was bigger and sharper than a normal kitchen knife, and just like that, it cut straight down with a knife, and cut the cat's belly open, and everything inside fell to the ground, and I saw the black sand they used to throw me inside...... I felt like throwing up. When they cut, they still look at me, stare at me, don't look at the cat. I was also like an evil spirit, and I looked at it stupidly, and I didn't leave quickly......"

Shen Fei frowned, when he said this, he also had that picture in his head, and he couldn't help but feel a little cold, so he asked

"Have you ever had a grudge against them, or have your family offended them before?"

Sun Jun thought for a while, and then said firmly

"I'm sure there isn't! When I was a child, I always lived with my parents and grandparents, and I remember it, in my impression, anyway, my family has never been with the people in the village, blushing and thick-necked! But I think they are very xenophobic, and when I was a child, I remember that our village was very remote, before it was developed, there was a team of donkey friends and couples, maybe lost in travel, came into our village, but the people in the village never gave the two of them a good look, and kept letting others go quickly, but it was late at night, and it was dangerous, so my grandfather kindly kept them for one night, and the people in the village had a lot of complaints at that time, which may be the only conflict.

Alas, probably think of me as that kind of profiteer. Not really! I am the same person as them, and the land and house in my hometown are about to be expropriated, so I will go back this time to go through the formalities. When I went back on the first day, I was still polite, and I greeted the people I had influence before, and I also bought some gifts for them in the county supermarket, just milk, cereal, etc., but people didn't appreciate it, and they closed the store directly when they saw me, you know? It's like in that kind of thriller, I knock on the door, they open the door and take a look, slam it shut, and then close the window, the curtains, everything. I'm inexplicable! I was gone, and when I looked back, I could see them lifting the curtains a little to look at me. That's it......"

Shen Fei asked again

"Haven't you left after you saw the cat killing?"

"I want to leave too, this village is getting weirder and weirder, but I can't help it, because the demolition has not been done yet, and I can't leave. But after all these incidents, I have been staying at home and not going anywhere, and since then my life in the village has been three points and one line, which is more regular than going to school, that is, the village committee, the police station, my family, and I don't deal with them anyway.

Shen Fei said with a smile

"It makes sense to do that"

Sun Jun shook his head, and there was more to it

One night I stayed at home, just finished the work in the company, when I was ready to eat, someone knocked on the door, it was almost eleven o'clock, the knocking sound was loud, like the hammer smashing, I was almost scared to death, several people stood outside, all of them were middle-aged people like me, one of them, when I was doing funerals before, I had seen them, and I had a few words with them, but now he has that expression, that kind of straight face, looking at the enemy, as if I was their father's killer, they knocked on the door very loudly, It was just slamming on the door, and finally I was able to open it, and as soon as the door opened, a couple of people rushed in, and then blocked the door. I hurriedly asked them what they wanted to do......"

Shen Fei became interested and wondered

"How did they answer?"

"He, the man I was talking about, had an enamel bowl in his hand, and inside it was ...... The first time I looked at it, I didn't know what it was, it was black, and it looked very sticky. Very...... How to say, it's disgusting, and the smell is disgusting...... It's just a musty smell...... He said to give me food, of course I won't eat it, whoever eats this will be dizzy! ”

Shen Fei urged

"And then?"

And then ...... And he ......"

"Just what?"

"He said, this is specially made by the third child and given to me."

"Who is the third child?"

"At first, I didn't know, and then I asked them, but I didn't expect that the third child came with them and stood in the back. They got out of the way, and I saw ...... He's covered in hair...... There was blood on his hair. And I recognized him, the third one who killed the cat...... It's that guy...... That thing...... Then he said that the third child specially slaughtered his black cat and gave it to me...... I, I almost threw up, literally almost threw up. All of them looked at me with the same expressions, as if if they wouldn't leave tonight if I didn't get them, and finally I accepted it tremblingly under pressure. ”

Shen Fei was surprised

"You took it?"

"Yes, I took it, but I didn't eat it, and it fell right away. That thing is really disgusting, I don't know if it's because it's not done well or if there's something wrong with that cat...... This bowl of soup looks like, alas, anyway...... Ah! ”

Syllable!

"That's it. I poured it out, returned the bowl to them, and closed the door. I looked inside the cat's eye, and they looked at each other, and then they both smiled. I feel like they're going to kill me...... They're trying to kill me...... After that, I drove to the county seat overnight. About an hour's drive, here is the upper level of the village, is another place, a little more prosperous, with hotels. I'm going to live there, ask the village committee or something, call me about something, I'll go over again. ”

"Hmm. Did anything happen to you after that? ”

"No, that's it. I didn't deal with them after that. ”

"Are the people in the village council normal?"

"Well, they're normal."

"After returning to Yancheng, you started to have nightmares?"

"Yes, I didn't start until I came back. That thing, that was the thing that went down my throat, I felt like smoke, the same smoke I saw that day, but when it got in my throat, and then down, to my esophagus, and then down, it felt like that cat meat...... It's slimy, and it smells weird......"

"Are you going back to your hometown alone?"

"Yes, just me. Originally, my wife wanted to come back with me and go back, but the children at home taught his grandparents, and we didn't feel at ease, so I asked my wife to stay, and I went back by myself, but I didn't expect it to be like this. I used to be, more than ten or twenty years ago, when I was a child, when my grandparents were still around, it was really not like this. ”

"How did they die?"

"I'm old, and I've eaten badly. They live in the countryside, and then there are bacteria and livers on the mountain, and every spring and summer, they go up to the mountains to pick them up, but once they eat the wrong food, they eat poisonous, and when the villagers contact us, they can't do it in the hospital. This must be true, because of my grandfather's relationship, they are the kind of people in the village who are not bad. But since I am the first college student in our village, or Yancheng University, I am also a good mix, so the family conditions are very good in the village. Every year when I go back to my hometown, my parents bring a lot of things back and help the people in the village. ”

"You're also Yanda?"

"yes, could it be that you are too?"

"Yes, this task was released by Yan University, but I didn't expect it to be an alumnus."

Hearing this, Sun Jun's eyes wet with tears

"Alas, alma mater, alma mater .... It's so nice..."

Shen Fei smiled, Okay, I'll continue to ask you

"Later, because of the death of your grandparents, you completely cut off contact with your hometown?"

"Huh? This one...... Hmmm......"
