Chapter 32: Caojia Village
After the notice was relented, Qingman successfully followed Liu Lei into the special car of the Special Investigation Bureau. The moment the car door was closed, not only did her heart fall back into her stomach, but she also successfully harvested the millet porridge and egg scones promised by the second section.
It also takes more than three hours to get from Suiping to Jing'an at the earliest, she ate a late breakfast, closed her eyes and took a nap in the car with peace of mind, Ren Xi and their eyes wandered between her and Liu Lei, and they didn't tell them who was soft first.
The air conditioner in the car is turned on very much, and it is comfortable to make people sleepy.
The members of the Special Investigation Section, who have been working all night all year round, know very well how rare this kind of short silence is, and they have closed their eyes without much effort. Liu Lei sat in the co-pilot, saw Qingman curled up, his expression was a little painful, and he turned around and put his coat on his body.
“#¥%&*……”
Qingman grinded his teeth and muttered something, Liu Lei wanted to go over with his ear, but saw that he had hidden his face in the police uniform.
This kid looks so harmless and cute now! Liu Lei smiled helplessly and sat back in his seat.
————————
Back in the cold and lonely Stone Town, there was no life everywhere.
Although she has now grown up through the complicated world, she can still feel the depression and panic that has penetrated into her bone marrow in this empty world.
"Aman, you're already that old? Come and ask my mother to take a look......" On one wall, a few loose stones were pulled from the outside, revealing a vague woman's face.
Qingman turned around when he heard this, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see what the woman looked like.
She was like a mist, a wet cloud, dripping rain at any moment. "My poor daughter! I knew there was going to be such a day...... You, you don't even recognize your mother...... However, what can I do, they say that you are a maid chosen by God, and you are destined to stay in this stone city. ”
Qingman was moved by the woman's tears, and his heart unconsciously became soft. She walked up to the woman and reached out to touch the face.
"My child!" The mist danced like a flame, and it grabbed her hand excitedly. "In the future, my mother will come to see you once a month, okay? Whatever you want to eat, what you want to see, my mother will bring it to you, okay? ”
Qingman hesitated, she still remembered the ban in Stone Town: no grains, no outsiders. However, she couldn't resist this feeling of being hot, alive, and cared for.
……
It turns out that the five grains are this kind of taste, and the people outside have so many stories, and the little animals are so soft and cute.
Qingman's heart, which should have been as calm as stagnant water, became more and more restless. She wanted to see her mother the next day, she wanted to go outside to see it herself, to see the blue sky, to see the green water, to see if everything on the painting was real.
However, greed and fanatical hope did not lead to the fulfillment of wishes, but rather to the growing uneasiness that lurked in the heart.
What's wrong? Isn't it time to stop here? The reason and memory that had not yet completely slumbered the frenzy of the green moth to the fire and the greed to quench her thirst by drinking, but they did not make her wake up immediately.
Finally, one day, the woman did not appear again, but for the first time in Stone Town, another woman appeared - Turan.
Turan always lowered his head, looking humble, except that he did not follow her into the Big Dipper Array to add clear streams; The rest of the time, he always followed her pitifully, not leaving an inch.
One night, when Turan was sleeping soundly for some reason, Qingman heard a strange noise coming from the wall outside, and finally couldn't help but run to check, only to encounter the woman who claimed to be her mother, the most tearful plea in history.
"Okay, Aman, can you help us? We have lost you, and we cannot afford to lose your brother again. We wouldn't have survived without him! ”
It's just that the clear stream in the eyes of each star can be exchanged for the peace and tranquility of the family, what is there to be embarrassed about?
Qingman agreed to all this without much hesitation, and it was not until the next morning that she followed the woman's instructions that she suddenly realized how much of a mistake she had made.
The star array rioted, the clear stream dried up, and the entire Stone Town was destroyed in the blink of an eye. In the interval between the countless stones falling, she saw her family slaughtered like innocent cattle and sheep, and the dark red blood and qi were connected with the black qi that filled the sky, stirring up the world in all directions.
It turned out that everything that didn't belong to her had already been marked with a price in the dark, just waiting for her to resist the temptation and walk into the abyss step by step.
There was a sharp pain in her heart, but she couldn't get rid of the resentment and unwillingness accumulated for thousands of years: when was it wrong? The day she was chosen to serve as a priest? The moment the stone wall was broken? The woman who claimed to be her mother or the Turan who was in charge of stalking?
——————————
The car drove into Caojia Village, and I saw the shocking six-pointed star pattern from a distance.
The carbonized black is like a satiated evil in the world, and it is ruthlessly branded with the imprint of punishment that has been announced. Erdan was shocked by everything in front of him, took out his mobile phone and slapped it out of the window, and Xi He and Xiao Chen, who were awakened, also rubbed their eyes and sat up.
Liu Lei didn't know when he changed positions with Xiao Yang, bit the cigarette butt silently, and drove forward for a while, until he saw the yellow and black warning belt, then leaned on the side of the country road and stopped the car.
"Let's go, go down and have a look, and do a good job of handing over the work to the comrades in Jing'an."
Liu Lei gave an order, and several people rushed out of the car. Xihe found that Qingman hadn't woken up yet, so he patted him on the shoulder with his hand and kindly reminded: "Hey, get out of the car!" ”
Qingman was frightened, opened his eyes violently, and reacted with both hands even before his will, directly pressing Xi He's backhand on his body. Under.
"What are you doing?!" Xihe turned his head to look at Qingman, his shame for his own skills was far greater than his anger at the other party's ignorance.
Qingman's pupils contracted suddenly, and his consciousness was finally forcibly withdrawn from the overwhelming dark red and black qi, and his heart seemed to jump out of his throat, and the sound was shocking.
"I'm sorry!" She regained her scenity, and an apology seemed to use all her strength.
Xihe saw that he was not in the right state, and he didn't care about anything, so he left him to chase after the big army.
Qingman casually picked up the clothes that had fallen on the ground, put them on his head again, and leaned them on the chair. However, before she could close her eyes, she heard the sound of someone knocking on the glass.
"Go away! I need to be alone! She waved her hand impatiently, thinking that it was Xihe who went and returned. But what she heard next made it difficult for her to remain calm.
"Yo, why are you so angry?! Who messed with our Officer Xiaoqing? Tu Bai opened the car door from the outside, leaned to the side and smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth.
