Chapter 132: Listening to the Story in the Birch Forest (5)

1, the third

On May Day this year, it is the 50th anniversary of S School. After the event, several of our old classmates came to the 112 dormitory where we lived that year. In a hurry, it has been ten years since graduation, and everyone is full of emotion when it comes to the past. In the evening, the junior in this dormitory said that since several senior brothers are here, today is a school holiday, you might as well stay here for one night, it is more commemorative.

Everyone listened to the good news, and at night, everyone lay in the bed they slept in ten years ago, and they couldn't sleep, and they were full of feelings, so someone suggested telling a ghost story. The boss of the dormitory was the first to speak, saying that there was an ancient tree behind their old house, and when they cut it, it bleed out、、、、、、. The second child is talking about a strange thing that happened in their city: a young man came home late at night on his bicycle, and met a single woman who asked for a ride, so he asked the woman to sit in the back of the car, and then turned around by chance, but saw the woman's face was pale and her blood-red tongue drooped、、、、、、 and everyone told this story a little taste; Next, the third child should speak, the third child is the host of the "Sleeper Talk" in our dormitory that year, and he is the most active in telling jokes and pornographic jokes, but this night is a little dull, first he refused to speak, and it took a long time to say: "It's not that I don't talk about it, it's that I'm afraid of scaring you." "When everyone heard this, they all said, so you have to talk even more, it's a long night, you can't sleep, talk quickly. The third child couldn't shirk it, so he told the following story-

Do you remember Ah Se? It was our class president, the fourth child in our dormitory, who committed suicide before graduation. The direct reason for the fourth child's suicide was to break up with his girlfriend Hong'er, who was originally an amorous person and liked beautiful girls very much. In fact, who doesn't like beautiful girls, just because he likes them too much, so everyone calls him "Ah Se". However, he has real feelings for Hong'er, and the blow of falling out of love is also very heavy. I think everyone still remembers the scene that day: when I woke up, the fourth child was missing in the dormitory, but I found that the suicide note he left on the bunk, about 5,000 words, to the effect that Hong'er doesn't love me anymore, she really doesn't love me anymore、、、、、、 writing is very poignant and affectionate, we never knew that the fourth child's writing would be so good.

Yes, that morning, the school mobilized all the teachers and students to find the fourth child. When I thought of "hanging the southeast branch", I went to a few beautiful groves; When I thought of "going to Qingchi", I went to the soft-shelled turtle pond raised in the west of the school. We almost went around the whole city. Finally someone rang Hong'er, she should know the clue. However, according to some girls, Hong'er was in a bad mood these days and went to another school. So the whole team immediately gathered at the university. When we arrived, Hong'er was still eating breakfast, and her pretty face turned white when she heard the news, and after a period of composure, she led everyone to a building where they often chatted on the roof. She said she must be there, but she was really scared and didn't go there. We rushed there, and sure enough, the fourth child was wandering in front of the building, and when he saw us, he immediately made up his mind to commit suicide. He ran to the fifth floor as fast as he could, then waved. However, when he jumped down, he seemed to think that the fifth floor was a bit too high (the fourth said that he had a fear of heights), and later, the fourth chose the fourth floor, then the third floor, the second floor、、、、、、 and finally, the fourth seemed to have committed suicide from the steps of the first floor - he covered his face when he jumped down and shouted "None of you care about me!" Then, "plop" sat on the ground and cried bitterly.

Many watch, many laugh.

Well! This was the first "suicide" of the fourth child, and of course it was attempted. But the fourth child's self-abandonment directly affected his prestige, which was not very high in everyone's hearts. The story of the fourth child's "suicide" has become a joke for everyone for a long time. I remember that the second child also created a special painting for this purpose, and the fourth child in the painting presents us with a sad back, on which a black and black high-heeled shoe print is clearly printed; During that time, a special topic was opened up in the "Sleeper Talk" in our dormitory, and we unanimously comforted the fourth child for fun: The boss said, the fourth, don't be too sad, don't remember the famous words that a young tutor said when he came to the school to give a speech last time? Why is the big husband without a wife! I also said that there is no grass at the end of the world, why bother to find the object, not only the quantity is not very large, but the quality is not very good; The second child said, yes, the fourth, if you want to open up, the boy doesn't flick if he has tears! The fifth said, did the fourth cry? Don't talk nonsense, the fourth child is crying in the nest so that we can easily see it? You say yes, right? Fourth? The sixth said, don't be discouraged by the fourth, no one sympathizes with you, we sympathize with you; didn't wait for everyone to fully express their opinions, and the fourth child cried viciously in the bed: Don't underestimate me! One day I killed myself, you bastards! There was an eerie flavor to these words, and later, we finally understood that the words of the fourth child foreshadowed a tragedy.

Yes, it was the second suicide of the fourth child. It's still such a bright morning, it's still such a poignant suicide note, and it's still the building where I went. When the fourth committed suicide for the second time, to be honest, we didn't take it seriously, the fourth was standing upstairs, but we were singing downstairs, I remember singing "Nanniwan", "The fragrance of flowers in the flower basket ~ Listen to me sing ~ Sing a song 、、、、、、 "The second child and I also told the fourth child on the roof of the building: Don't smash the earth~ But I didn't expect this kid to have no fear of heights this time, he really jumped from the 5th floor and fell into a man's appearance."

Do you remember the group photo taken in our dormitory before graduation? Later, I told you that the photo was developed badly, but in fact, it was not at all. Originally, I didn't want to tell you that you forced me to tell a story tonight, so I had to tell you that the reason why I didn't give you the photo was because we had a group photo of seven people, but after the photo came out, it was eight people, and that person was the fourth.

The story of the third child was finished, and there was silence in the dormitory.

Suddenly, someone was laughing, laughing in the dark for no reason, this is the laughter of the fourth child~

Look, on the bed of the fourth child back then, I don't know when there was a person lying down、、、、、、

2. People who hold children

The night was like ink, and the moonlight was obscured by it.

The man hurried along the path, and he had just finished watching a horror movie.

The path was full of weeds on both sides, swaying gently in the wind, as if waving to a man. The man tightened his clothes, craned his neck and continued on his way, at this moment, he most hoped to meet other passers-by on the road.

As he walked, a passer-by came faintly not far in front of him, walking towards the man. The man suddenly felt steady, and now he was not alone.

But soon, the man felt that something was wrong, because he found that this passer-by who was walking opposite him had always kept the same distance from him.

The man's heart tightened, and his body trembled involuntarily.

It stands to reason that two people facing each other should pass each other soon, right? But why do they keep the same distance?

Gradually, the man saw the passerby clearly.

It turned out that the passerby and the man were in the same direction, but the head was turned 180 degrees, facing the man, and the man looked so strange, with a stout body, a small head, and seemed to have childlike eyes and a smile.

The man screamed in fright and fainted.

The passer-by in front of him stopped and said, "Bao'er, someone seems to be calling." β€œ

The child in the passerby's arms removed his head from the passerby's body, looked at the passer-by and said, "Well, Dad, it was the uncle in the back who called it." ”

The child finished and pointed to the man lying on the ground in the distance.

3. Dialogue

"When I was walking on the road that day, I noticed a woman in front of me, and everyone else said I couldn't see her, so I called her." Brother said.

"And then?" The younger brother asked.

"Then she turned around, and I looked at it、、、、、、" My brother paused.

"What's wrong?" The younger brother pulled his brother nervously, and he didn't dare to breathe.

"There was a full face in front of her." Brother said.

"Ahh It's terrifying! Woo、、、、、、" The younger brother was so frightened that he cried.

Mom walked over and slapped my brother on the head.

"How many times have I said it! Don't tell your brother human stories! Mom coaxed her brother with her almost bony hands, and glared at him with her black hole in her eyes.

The elder brother stuck out his tongue, "snapped", and the tongue fell on the dining table, and the elder brother picked it up, put it in his mouth, and ran out.

4. Take a taxi

Swallow made a bet with her classmates to exchange the dark money in her hand for real money.

In the middle of the night, Swallow put red paint into her trench coat and hailed a taxi.

After getting into the car, Swallow asked the driver to tell her a ghost story.

Just as the driver was talking, Swallow quietly bent down, took off her trench coat, which was a set of white pajamas, then spread her hair, applied red paint to her eyes, nose and mouth, then sat up straight again, and quietly used her mobile phone to light it from the bottom up.

The driver saw the swallow in the rearview mirror and slammed on the brakes.

"Find 、、、、、、 money、、、、、、 Swallow said quietly as she handed the coin to the driver.

The driver turned his head, his face was covered with glass shards, the upper part of his head seemed to have been cut off by something, gurgling with blood, and his eyeballs were long gone, leaving only two black holes. The driver stretched out his fleshless hand, shook it, and said, "Forget it, it's the first time I've brought the same kind, and I'm sorry." ”

5. Dumplings

The child's hand was not treated, and it was quickly healed, but the arm could no longer be straightened. The child grew up, but the hand on this arm did not grow much, and became smaller and smaller than the other. People don't call him Wang Zhanfeng anymore, they all call him Wang Xiaoshou.

was liberated, the fourth master of the door died as a rebellious landlord, the family was distributed to the villagers, and Wang Xiaoshou's father was given a cauldron of the fourth master.

Wang Xiaoshou grew to the age of thirty-two in the "wild seeds" that popped out of his father's thick lips and the tears that his mother silently shed, and left the house with his father's cauldron on his back and lived in his mother-in-law's house.

Chen Silly is a fool, her parents gave birth to thirteen children, and she lived six, she is the youngest and only daughter. His father was a short man, people called him Chen Dwarf, he had tracheitis when he was young, and he coughed all the year round, and people called him Chen Roar Baer. 's mother is a strong woman, she can still pick and carry at the age of sixty, she has raised five sons, all of whom have married wives and had children, and there is only such a stupid girl left by her side.

Chen Silly is not stupid, she ate dumplings for the New Year when she was four years old, and ate the dumplings wrapped in copper coins that symbolized blessing, the blessing was too great, but she was too young to distinguish foreign objects in food, and the copper coins were stuck in her throat. The child was suffocated, and when the copper coin was pulled out, the child was stupid. Chen Silly never dared to eat dumplings again, and ran away in fright when she saw dumplings. She followed her mother every day, she followed her wherever she went, and she would cry when she was gone. The mother looked at her daughter and worried. "Girl, I really left that day, who are you going with?"

Chen Silly is seventeen years old, her father is gone, her mother is panicked, and without the coughing sound of "Lao Ba'er", she also feels that her life is not long. The mother folded her fingers, counted the stars in the sky, and counted the sick men and women in ten miles and eight villages. There are two fools, but can two fools live together? It's better to take your daughter away yourself.

The mother looked at her daughter sitting on the side of the road playing in the mud and despaired, and there would be a mother and daughter on the road to the underworld soon.

The daughter giggled while playing, pointed to a person walking on the road and said, "Wang Xiaoshou, Wang Xiaoshou." ”

Mother also saw Wang's little hand, his hand was on his waist, and his short figure came with the arm that could not be stretched straight. There seemed to be a flash of inspiration in front of her mother, thinking that so many unmarried young people had forgotten Wang Xiaoshou.

The mother entrusted a matchmaker and found the Wang family with wine and chickens, and the Wang family agreed, and Wang Xiaoshou also agreed.

The day after the wedding, my mother left. Chen Silly followed Wang Xiaoshou every day, and always kept calling: Wang Xiaoshou, Wang Xiaoshou. Wang Xiaoshou ignored her and did his own thing.

Five years later, Chen Silly gave birth to a child, a boy, who weighed eight pounds, looked like a tiger, and was healthy. In the past five years, Chen Silly has learned to do some work with Wang Xiaoshou. People looked at the children and said that this is fate, Wang Xiaoshou and Chen Silly are arranged by God, the two of them have lived, and after they have passed it on, they are also destined to live at home. In addition to raping Wang Xiaoshou's mother, the fourth master didn't do too much to lack morality, and one of Wang Xiaoshou's hands made it short for him, so forget it. Wang Xiaoshou asked the old gentleman in the village to give his son an inscription, called Wang Jiaozhi. But Chen Silly said it was not good, it sounded like dumplings.

When the child was two years old, the old house of his mother-in-law's family collapsed. The younger brother Wang Zhanjun took pity on this half-brother and led the villagers to build a new small earthen house for Wang Xiaoshou. The wood is on the old house, it is all bad, and it can not be used much, so the house is built very small, and there is no room for the inside and outside, so a kang can only be built in a room, and one end of the kang is connected to the stove, and a small wall more than two feet high is built between the stove and the kang. The pot is the big pot from the back of Wang Xiao's hand, and there are four pigs at home, and Chen Silly is not very good at other jobs, but she can cut pigweed. The original pot was too small, and the pig food made from this cauldron was enough for four pigs. People looked at this cauldron and said to Wang Xiaoshou that this is the landlord's pot, the oil bottom is thick, and it must grow very fat to feed the pigs.

After the big cold, it's time for the New Year. Wang Xiaoshou's pigs grew fat and strong, and sold three of them, and people said that Wang Xiaoshou was about to become a landlord. Older people say that the family makes a fortune by raising pigs, and Wang Xiaoshou is really the son of the fourth door. The remaining Wang Xiaoshou called for someone to kill, gave half of the pork to his younger brother Zhanjun, and took the remaining half to his father's house, and Chen Silly also came with the child in his arms.

The father was already sick in bed at this time, looking at this son who had no blood relationship with him, and then looked at the child in Chen Silly's arms, his face was gloomy, and he didn't speak. But my mother was very happy, and when my father saw my mother's happy appearance, he suddenly had difficulty breathing and couldn't breathe, and his younger brother Zhanjun hurriedly asked his father What's wrong? The father swallowed in anger and suffocation.

Wang Xiaoshou did not attend the funeral of his "father".

The Spring Festival has arrived, the night has fallen, Chen Silly looked at his son and smirked, and Wang Xiaoshou also laughed. My son can already walk, but he is still a little staggering. The small wall between the stove and the kang became his handrail, and his son was very happy when he walked again and again. Chen Silly looked at it and suddenly said, "Eat dumplings, let dumplings (Jiaozhi) eat dumplings." ”

Wang Xiaoshou understood, she was talking about letting her son eat dumplings. The silly girl doesn't eat dumplings, but she knows to let her son eat dumplings.

Wang Xiaoshou jumped up happily, yes! Eating dumplings, such a good year, what a year if you don't eat dumplings! Wang Xiaoshou is actually very good at making dumplings, every step of his mother's making dumplings is in his heart, and he will help his mother make dumplings when his father is not in sight. Wang Xiaoshou and noodles, chopped the meat filling, and made dumplings on the board alone. There are more wrinkles on the face of the smile than on the dumplings. Chen Silly didn't run when she saw the dumplings this time, she looked at her son on the side, and she just smiled when she saw the dumplings.

When firecrackers are blaring outside, the new year has arrived. Chen Silly had already boiled the water, and the water vapor filled the entire hut, and the light of the candles was warm. Wang Xiaoshou ran to the kang to pick up the dumplings on the panel, he was so excited that his face turned red. The water in the room was so strong that the dumplings on the panel were invisible, and he counted them as he picked them.

With a "plop", Chen Silly shouted "Dumplings!" ”

Wang Xiaoshou happily agreed, "I'll come right away." ”

Chen Silly shouted in a changed voice this time: "Arrogant! ”

Wang Xiaoshou heard it clearly this time, thought of the "plop" sound, and scattered the dumplings all over the ground, running to the cauldron, the water splashed, and a large ball of things inside followed, and the two red tiger shoes that his son wore were floating on the water.

The son died, and the cauldron was boiled to death. Chen Silly is crazy. Wang Xiaoshou smashed the pot.
