……

Turning around into an alley, this is the shortest route for her to go home, and she walks during the day on weekdays, and she doesn't feel anything. It's a little late today, but the ordinary alley has added some frightening atmosphere.

This is a very old alley, the former residents have also finished, at first said that it would be demolished, but because the cost could not be negotiated, it was temporarily shelved, and the alley became more and more dilapidated.

Zuo Mengmeng spent the rest of her time in a martial arts gym except for school. The martial arts gym is mainly engaged in sanda, not the popular taekwondo, modern people for martial arts, not as much as the pursuit of the gym, the source of customers is sparse, there are no people. She has plenty of time to practice on her own. Zuo Mengmeng practiced hard, an orphan girl, and had some self-defense skills, so as not to be bullied.

In the past few years, this thin and thin girl has become the number one girl on the road...... No one can believe it just by looking at the appearance! Not to mention how advanced the martial arts are, but with a ruthless spirit, it is more than enough for two or three strong men to fight.

It is precisely because of this that I have made many Taoist friends, with similar tempers and morality. - This made a big contribution to her not becoming a sociopath.

The artist is bold, Zuo Mengmeng didn't care about the darkness of the alley, and walked in with a grin, thinking about tonight's recipe. She is very good at cooking, but she is too lazy, and she usually makes do with takeout. But no matter how you say it today, it's also a holiday, even if it's to show your parents, you have to be active.

After walking for about five or six meters, a few people suddenly came out of the aisle next to the alley and stopped in front. She looked up and looked around.

There were six men in total, all dressed in black, except for the one at the front, and the remaining five were each carrying a baseball bat.

The man in the lead has a flat head and an ordinary appearance. staring at Zuo Mengmeng's eyes was very fierce:

"Zuo Meng, don't you love to get ahead? I'll give you enough today! The man had a mouth full of yellow teeth, gritted his teeth, and said.

Zuo Mengmeng's heart tightened, but her face remained silent: "My face is quite big, so you broke the bank to find so many people." Yellow mouse, is this trying to get back on the field? ”

"Aren't you notoriously angry? Last time, I couldn't get out of bed for a few months with Li Qiao's slut! The man called the yellow mouse sneered: "You are awesome, I can't beat you!" So I found a bunch of brothers, I want to see if you have three heads and six arms! ”

He tilted his head towards the five people behind him, "Up! As long as you don't die, the wounded and disabled will be mine! ”。 The five of them slowly surrounded and sandwiched Zuo Mengmeng in the middle.

She frowned, knowing that it would be difficult to be good today.

Yellow Mouse is a nickname, a rich second generation, relying on some stinky money in the family to bully men and women. Li Qiao is her good sister, the daughter of the owner of the martial arts gym, and she is impatient and spicy. The yellow mouse somehow fell in love with her, and the benefits of giving flowers and gifts to dinner were all lost, but he was beaten by Li Qiao. The yellow mouse couldn't get over the face, so he asked people out under the banner of apology, and wanted to have a raw rice to cook rice.

That day, Zuo Mengmeng accompanied Li Qiao to strengthen his courage, and he couldn't talk about it during the banquet, so he started to move. The yellow mouse only brought one attendant, who was not the opponent of these two heroines at all, and his face was beaten colorfully. Li Qiao was ruthless and directly broke a leg for him.

Huang Rat knew that the owner of the martial arts hall had some background, so he didn't dare to be ruthless to Li Qiao directly, and was ready to abolish Zuo Mengmeng first to collect some interest. He paid a few thugs to find a chance to block her.

Zuo Mengmeng took a deep breath, took off her down jacket in three or two times, tore off her scarf and threw it aside, moving her legs and feet.

She glared angrily at the yellow mouse hiding behind: "You always have to pay it back when you come out to mix!" The old lady knows it! I beat you last time I beat you lightly, and today I admit it, but don't think about it! As soon as she finished speaking, she took two steps back and accelerated suddenly, rushed past the five people who met on the opposite side, and rushed towards the yellow mouse.

Before the others could react, Zuo Mengmeng had already arrived in front of the yellow mouse, and the yellow mouse subconsciously raised his hand to block his head, but there was a sharp pain in the lower half of his body without warning. It turned out that Zuo Mengmeng came up with a broken kick and left no room for ruthlessness.

The yellow mouse covered his lower body and lay down directly, screaming so badly. "Ah!! Slut, you abolished her for me! Fight to the death! ”

The five people next to him were stunned, looking at each other, feeling that their lower bodies were also cold. Alerted by the miserable cry of the yellow mouse, the five rushed up with sticks.

Zuo Mengmeng dodged a stick swung in front of him, and kicked down one of them.

Left and right, facing the person in the middle, a head hammer hit the opponent's ribs directly, only to hear a click, and the opponent screamed and fell to the ground. People's ribs are very fragile, and she knows that five people will definitely not be able to please her, so she can only break them one by one at the key points, so that she has a hope.

But after all, he was hit hard in the back. She staggered a few steps forward, turned around and threw a punch straight into the man's temple. The man's head buzzed, his eyes went black, and he collapsed to the side.

She was just about to turn around, but there was another heavy stick on her right shoulder, and she couldn't lift her right arm immediately. Zuo Mengmeng's head was biased, and she dodged a blow to her head, but there was a sharp pain in her chest and ribs, and she was afraid that her ribs would be fractured.

She endured the severe pain in her body, grabbed the elbow joint of the sneak attacker's hand with her left hand, and slammed it to the opponent's side, and with a click and dislocation, Zuo Mengmeng grabbed the baseball bat and smashed it the side of his neck.

After the man fell to the ground, a gap appeared in the encirclement. She dodged and wanted to escape, but she suffered a heavy blow on her forehead, and in an instant, her eyes blurred, Zuo Mengmeng's body shook, and she fell to the ground with a bang.

"Hit, beat me to death!" There was a sound of angry yellow rats in his ears.

She collapsed in the snow, curled up and shielded her vital point with her arms, the thud of sticks everywhere. Sticky blood flowed down her forehead and into her eyes, and her vision was suddenly blood-red, and there was no pain in her body.

Her consciousness blurred, and finally sank into a deep darkness.

……

"Meow~", in the silent old alley of a snowy night, a thinly dressed girl curled up on her side on the muddy snow without moving.

The original white sweater on her upper body was stained with blood. The blood on his head snaked down his dirty cheeks and fell to the ground, smashing a red patch on the snow.

A feral cat scurried over a nearby knocked over a dumpster, its cries and crashes piercing in the still, cold night.

The girl's fingers moved, and she opened her eyes slowly and with difficulty.

It turned out that she was not dead, Zuo Mengmeng sneered, the corners of her mouth hurt, and she was no longer able to move her body.

On such a cold day, even if you haven't been beaten, you should have frozen to death if you lay down all night.

Regret it? Help Li Qiao get ahead?

There is nothing to regret, today it is Li Qiao, who will be desperate for everything. I don't have parents and relatives, and Professor Chen and those friends are the reason for living in this world.

“…… Li Qiao, you owe me 68 yuan and haven't paid it back, it's cheap for you. ”

“…… Grandma, I like the scarf you knit very much, and I am reluctant to take it off all the time. Zuo Mengmeng squirmed her lips, and her voice was weak.

“…… And the old man, when you look back and know that I am hanging, don't cry...... I wanted to call you grandpa ...... during the New Year."

Zuo Mengmeng tilted her head hard and glanced at the long strip of sky above her head, and the stars could be seen on a snowy night, not as dense as she had seen when she was a child, but it was the same high and deep.

Mom, Dad, is it finally time to be with you? Thinking of this, Zuo Mengmeng reached out to touch the bead pendant hanging on his chest, but he touched it.

She was in a good position and waiting for death, she immediately became anxious, this bead that I don't know if it was a stone or something was Zuo Mengmeng begged from her father when she was a child. The beads are white, only the size of a finger's belly, round and smooth and delicate.

It was harvested by my father from a farmer, dug out of the ground, and when he thought it looked good, he gave it to his daughter to play with. At first, my father thought that he had dug up the tomb and that it was the jade beads buried in the tomb, so that he could say that he would take it back at a high price. I found someone to identify it, and I found out that it was not jade, nor was it metal. Just some kind of unknown stone! Only then did he die, and he only thought that he had lost a sum of money.

Zuo Mengmeng accidentally saw that she liked it very much, and pestered her father for a long time to get it, which was later recalled by her mother and told her.

After my mother fell ill, in addition to the house, everything else that could be sold was sold, and the only thing left was this bead, because the material was unknown and worthless, so no one bought it, and Zuo Mengmeng was made into a pendant as a relic of his parents and brought it to his body.

She struggled to look around. I saw the beads on the ground on her right hand falling quietly. Her right arm was badly injured, but she gritted her teeth without hesitation and struggled to move her hand to grab the beads into her palm.

Ah, I can finally wait for death with peace of mind. Zuo Mengmeng glanced at the night sky nostalgically and slowly closed his eyes.

In the palm of her right hand, which was covered with blood, the ordinary orb underwent strange changes.

I saw that the blood close to the bead disappeared inexplicably, as if it had been wiped clean by something, and the bead slowly changed color from the inconspicuous beginning. From a faint pink to pink and then redder, and finally, it turned into a red bead with a pearl-like halo.

Zuo Mengmeng, who was posed again, quietly waited to fall into the endless darkness. She had fallen into a state of numbness due to excessive blood loss and hypothermia, and could not feel cold or pain. But somehow, the palm of the right hand suddenly began to heat up, getting hotter and hotter even to the point of hot hands. She had to spread out her right hand and endure the pain in front of her face, only to see this red bead with a halo of light.

In the old alley, which is so dark that there are no street lights, the beads that emit a faint red light are extraordinarily eye-catching, with a strange color.

Zuo Mengmeng bit her tongue hard, is she already dead? Hallucinations? Or did that blow to the head make me stupid?

She stared intently at the beads in her hand, and the more she looked at it, the more dizzy she became.

What was originally a round bead gradually became two, four, eight...... In the end, in her sight, the sky was covered with red beads, and the halo of red beads painted the whole world red!

She just wanted to close her eyes and calm down, when suddenly, her head was empty, her body was light, and her whole person disappeared in place.

……

The alley is still the same as before, the traces of the fight just now are still there, the down jacket and scarf that I took off are also there, there are a few pools of blood on the ground, but the girl who was lying here just now is gone.

Not only the girl, but also the red strange bead disappeared as well.

Another wild cat, out of nowhere, meowed and rummaged in the bin, and the old alley was silent again.
