Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Road Goes Away
As the sun sets, the last wisp of red disappears into the horizon, and the dark and dreary night seems to be smeared on the sky with boundless thick ink, not even the glimmer of the stars, and in the depths of the dense mountain forest, from time to time there is a cry of an animal that I don't know what it is, which makes people shudder.
Teng Ying found a stout ancient tree and sat down, draped her clothes on her body, curled up in a ball, she had never felt so frightened, the dead silence around her, let her touch the scene, some cows, ghosts, snakes and gods filled her mind, every night was so difficult, so long, she didn't dare to close her eyes, until, the sky turned red again, and the sun rose.
The sun was shining, Teng Ying opened her sleepy eyes, and looked up at the treetops towering above the clouds, it should be noon.
Teng Ying held a handful of river water in her hand, sweet and moisturizing, and then washed her face, she has been on the run for half a month, Teng Ying doesn't know what has become of her outside, she doesn't know if she is wanted, she walks aimlessly every day, she doesn't know where she should go, she pays everything she wants to protect, but she leaves herself, and now he has only one obsession, that is, to protect his last wealth, no matter what happens in the future, she will not give it to others.
There was not much dry food left in the backpack, and it was a small town at the foot of the mountain, Teng Ying simply cleaned herself up, loosened the somewhat scattered braided hair on both sides of the tip, and coiled her hair high, trying to make herself look natural.
On the streets, people come and go, and no one pays too much attention to themselves, and if there is, they are also some young people, who unconsciously look at themselves twice.
Teng Ying didn't want to waste time, so she walked straight towards a small supermarket.
Although the supermarket is small, it is full of organs, and the things in it are very complete, Teng Ying purchased some daily necessities, in order to reduce the burden and increase the battery life, she chose to compress dry food and canned food. Seeing that it was almost over, Teng Ying walked quickly towards the door, but it was no coincidence that he couldn't write a book, I don't know when, a policeman suddenly appeared around the corner, and Teng Ying, who was unsuspected, collided with it, and things were scattered all over the ground.
The sudden change made Teng Ying's heart sink, the two looked at each other, the policeman looked at Teng Ying, and Teng Ying also looked at her, and after a few seconds, Teng Ying said, "Ah, I'm sorry." So he immediately crouched down and picked up something.
The police also apologized at this time: "I bumped into you." "Said this will help pick it up.
But halfway through the pickup, the policeman's hand stopped again, Teng Ying realized that something was wrong, slowly raised his head, and saw the policeman looking at him again, Teng Ying secretly said that it was not good, but he was still recognized.
After a few seconds, the police shook his head and said, "Hey, I recognized the wrong person, one of my high school classmates looks quite like you, very beautiful." ”
"Ah, thank you."
After saying that, I checked out and hurried out.
Back in the mountains, Teng Ying leaned against the tree and cried bitterly, what happened to him? I'm a police officer myself! Why now, seeing the police can be so timid! Could it be that you have subtly admitted or recognized the change of role? Where will I go from here? The original intention of his own protection is completely contrary to what he is guarding now, and his original intention has long been forgotten.
This should still be a pure land for herself, Teng Ying wants to observe for a while, if there is no movement here, she decided to settle down here first, Teng Ying has really had enough of the days when the wind is scattered and sleeping.
After a few days of calm, Teng Ying decided to settle down here first, but she couldn't find an agent to go through the formal procedures, so she would be exposed, so she found a phone number in the corridor in the community and prepared to call the landlord directly.
But just as Teng Ying was about to go downstairs, a familiar figure appeared in front of Teng Ying.
It was the policeman, and he happened to be upstairs.
This time when the police saw Teng Ying, their faces tightened, and the whole person immediately became alert, Teng Ying's heart sank, and secretly said that they should have received the task, and they were really unlucky.
"You? Also stay here. Teng Ying asked tentatively.
The police didn't answer, just looked at Teng Ying vigilantly, and unconsciously touched his waist.
The fists in Teng Ying's hands tightened tighter and tighter, and after the two sides confronted each other for about dozens of seconds, the policeman sighed and walked past Teng Ying's side, "This is not suitable for you, the house is too expensive, let's go." ”
Teng Ying let out a long breath when she heard this, but she still agreed, and trotted downstairs, and suddenly, the police behind her asked, "What are you guarding?" It's worth the price. ”
Teng Ying stopped and said gloomily: "I don't know, but it's not the original intention or belief." ”
The police hesitated for a moment and said, "I understand, good luck to you." ”
The identity was exposed, and his life of exile had to continue, Teng Ying didn't have time to pack her things, put on her backpack, and ran deeper into the mountains and forests.
I don't know how long I walked, the mountain road was rugged, I was hungry, I picked up a little compressed dry food with my hands, and when I was thirsty, I went to the weeds on the side of the road to collect dew, Teng Ying dragged her tired body, relying on her consciousness to move forward step by step, her clothes were hung in tatters by the surrounding weeds, and the bare skin was also scratched by Lalayang, and the insects in the mountains fell wantonly on Teng Ying's bare skin, greedily sucking the blood of Teng Ying.
The wind and rain in the mountains are impermanent, sometimes the sky is clear, sometimes the wind and rain are blowing, at this time Teng Ying feels as if her body has been drained, her limbs are weak, even when the sun is shining, there will be a bone-chilling cold in her body, and she is having a high fever.
Teng Ying knew that her path was likely to end here, and she would gradually decay and forget with the fallen leaves under her feet.
At this time, there was a dark cloud floating along the top of the mountain, the mountain suddenly had a strong wind, a little bean hit from the head, the water hit along the dark ditch, like a flash flood, Teng Ying was powerless to dodge, let the raindrops fall on herself, like a walking corpse, carrying heavy steps, Mu Ne this forward, at this time her goal is not to get out of the mountain forest, but the distance from one tree to another.
By a tree, Teng Ying suddenly, her feet slipped, her body was empty, and then the whole person kept falling towards the mountain stream, looking at the gradually smaller mountains, Mom and Dad, I came......
