Chapter 30: Secluded
Tao Songzhi said that the secluded place is an abandoned house, the previous owner originally wanted to dismantle the heavy cover, demolished halfway, there was a Taoist priest from the tour side to see, said that the feng shui is not good, so the owner of the house also broke off the idea of building a house, just waiting to find a person to sell the land in the future, this is five or six years, those half demolished broken walls, has become a good place for children to hide and seek.
When Tao Songzhi came to his uncle's house when he was a child, he went there with his cousins to play, and it was not remote, but it was deserted for too long, and no one came except for children.
"This is it, what happened before my dad's accident? Why his stuff is on you, tell me quickly. ”
It may be that the desolation here makes him uneasy, Tao Songzhi doesn't even have the harmony he just pretended, and his voice is as cold as ice.
"Will anyone see here?" Shen Tong looked around and asked cautiously.
"No," Tao Songzhi affirmed.
"That's good, it's the first time I've come to Shilipu, if it weren't for my cousin leading the way, I wouldn't have known there was such a good place", Shen Tong lowered his voice very low, as if he was worried about being heard, "Cousin, did you say yes?" ”
"What do you say? Didn't you see it on the way here? There's not even a shadow of a person, you don't have to speak so quietly, and no one will hear you yelling. "The little girl is really annoying, and the granddaughter of the Huang family is especially annoying.
"Oh, so that's the case", Shen Tong smiled, she raised her leg and stretched out her toes, "Cousin, look at my feet." ”
Her feet? What's so nice about her feet? Is this little girl a fool?
Tao Songzhi became more and more impatient, but his eyes subconsciously looked down, and he saw that the little foot was wearing a pair of green embroidered shoes, and there seemed to be a small hole in the embroidered shoes.
The reason why it is "like" is because Tao Songzhi didn't have time to take a closer look, and the embroidered shoe kicked at his knee.
The little feet in embroidered shoes are thin and small, and such a foot will not hurt much when kicked on the body.
But this foot kicked Tao Songzhi's knee, he felt a tingling in his calf, and knelt down on one knee with a pop, at that moment, a thought flashed in his mind, could it be that he kicked the acupuncture point that the doctor said?
didn't allow him to think about it anymore, the other foot wearing embroidered shoes stepped on his back, this time, Tao Songzhi didn't land on one knee, he was lying on the ground with his whole body!
It hurts, it hurts, my knees hurt, my hands hurt, I must have been bruised by the rough ground.
He knew how to read and write at the age of three, and his father thought that he was a seed of reading, and cultivated him carefully.
yes, my jaw hurts too, is this a bump to my chin? Will it ruin the appearance?
Tao Songzhi struggled to get up, but a small knee was on the back of his heart, and he wanted to climb but couldn't.
"Dead girl, what are you going to do?" Tao Songzhi was shocked and angry, his jaw hurt, and these few words also made him miserable.
"Say, where is my home?" The delicate voice sounded above his head, and Tao Songzhi hated to tear the person who spoke off.
But he couldn't, he couldn't, the little body that was as delicate as the voice pressed on him, but it seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
"Joke, where is your home, you ask me?" Tao Songzhi sneered, the dead girl was two years younger than him, of course he wouldn't be afraid of her, he was just caught off guard, he didn't expect the dead girl to make a trick.
"yes, I'm just asking you, you said it's a joke, so if I cripple your right hand, it's still not a joke?"
Before the words fell, Tao Songzhi's right hand, which was struggling hard, was suddenly pressed to the ground, and then, he saw another hand, Shen Tong's hand.
Shen Tong was holding a green brick in his hand, which should be the green brick left over from the demolition of the house back then, and there was still green moss on the brick.
"It's okay, cousin, you can say it or not, I can smash it or not." Shen Tong spoke softly, with a bit of naughtiness in her voice, she was a naughty little girl.
If it was half a moment ago, Tao Songzhi would not believe that he would be threatened by a little girl.
"You dare!" He said angrily, his jaw hurts, and it hurts even more when he speaks.
"Your family is gone, and now it's no different from a wild dog, what would I not dare?" Shen Tong said with a smile.
No, he is a scholar, he still has to write with his hands, and he still has to take the imperial examination.
"Help, help!" Tao Songzhi screamed, but unfortunately his chest was pressed to the ground, even if he was shouting for help, it was as if he was not full.
"Don't shout, cousin, you said it, no one hears the yelling here, have you forgotten?" Shen Tong said.
Yes, he didn't forget, the reason why he brought Shen Tong to this place was because it was secluded here, there was no one, and on the way here, he had paid careful attention to it, and there was not even a shadow of a person.
So, even if he screamed out and cut his throat, no one came to save him.
"Don't you want to say? Then I'll smash it. Shen Tong said, and the hand holding the green brick fell.
"Don't, I say!" Tao Songzhi shouted.
The bricks fell, but not on his hands, but on the ground full of rubble, only an inch from his hands.
Tao Songzhi was shocked into a cold sweat, and just over an inch, the green brick smashed into his hand.
He gasped for breath, and he didn't even seem to feel the pain in his jaw, and every pore around him was wrapped in fear, it was terrible, it was terrible like it had never been.
"Say it, if you make a mistake, I'll smash it." The falling green bricks were lifted again, and Tao Songzhi only felt that his head was dizzy, and a burst of urine came to him, and something flowed out of his body.
"Your home is in Xia Qiao Town, you don't have to test me with this, what do you want to know, do you want to know why my father hates your family?" Of course he wouldn't be so stupid as to think that Shen Tong really just wanted to ask where his home was, this girl was eight years old, how could she not know her home, she was trying to test him, no, she was trying to scare him with this incident.
"It turned out to be in Xiaqiao Town, it's not far away, no wonder you can walk back and forth in a day, Xiaqiao Town is very big, where is my home in Xiaqiao Town?" Shen Tong asked again.
This time, Tao Songzhi was already sure that the dead girl wanted to use this incident to suppress him, make him scared, and then ask more important words from his mouth.
"Your home is in Liujiawan in Xiaqiao Town, if you have anything else to ask, just ask." Courage came back little by little, what my father said was right, be calm no matter what the situation, he was just too uncalm. Father also said that to be a man, you must know how to make trade-offs, and you must also know how to advance and retreat, now he will take a step back, pretend to cooperate, and see what this dead girl is going to do.
