What is the greatest pain in life? Bankrupt or bereaved by a loved one? Different people may have different answers.

For me, this scene in front of me was the greatest pain of my life.

At this moment, I have not only lost all my relatives, but also all my property, and even, I have lost my identity and the meaning of existence.

Who am I? Where did it come from? Where should I go?

I looked at my dad blankly (maybe I should change my name to adoptive father, but I still can't accept it, let's call him dad), watching him cry and laugh, and the whole person circled around the coffin like crazy, and my heart was full of sadness.

Perhaps, my father is more miserable than me.

Think about it, the son who has been raised for more than 20 years suddenly found out one day that he was a stranger, and his son had died more than ten years ago, and he had already turned into white bones, and he was still kept in the dark.

I just stood there and watched my dad cry and laugh like a madman, until my uncle came over when he was done with his business.

I told him a rough picture of what happened, and my uncle was also confused, all of which was really shocking.

However, the uncle is obviously a little more determined, probably because of the fact that he is separated by a layer of blood, and the blow he suffered is not so big, so he can bear it.

Uncle took out half a bottle of Erguotou from the corner of the brick kiln and handed it to Dad, who glanced at him, and then looked at me with complicated eyes, raised his head and drank Erguotou in one breath, and then leaned on his uncle, muttering in his mouth: "My heart hurts so much, I dug up a piece of meat, this is a piece of meat......"

My uncle sighed, helped my father and walked towards the village, and after walking a distance, he turned around and found me standing in place stunned, and couldn't help but scold: "Your father was hit, are you also stupid?" Even if it is not biological, what is the difference between it and biological if it has been raised for more than ten years? ”

I couldn't help but have a sour nose, answered, and followed, helping to support my father, who was already drunk.

When I came to my grandmother's house and arranged my father to sleep in bed, my uncle beckoned me to sit down in the yard, and after pouring tea, I couldn't help but sigh and said: "Xiaozang, seriously, I can't figure out if you are the original child now, but even if it is not, your father and your mother have raised you for so many years, and you are the only seedling in the family, you can't ignore them." ”

"Uncle, I know, if I really do that, what difference will I have from a brute?" I couldn't help but cry - all of a sudden, the whole world was strange, and how could I continue?

"It's good that you can understand, this matter hasn't been figured out yet, don't have any pimples in your heart, eat something and sleep well, and when you go to the mountains to hunt monkeys, I will ask you to go with you."

"Okay."

My uncle's cooking skills are very good, he has always been a chef in the village, and if there is any happy event in the village, he will be invited to take charge of the spoon, and after I ate a big bowl of rice, I fell asleep.

My cousin from my uncle's family has been working outside to earn money in the past few years, and he has taken his grandparents and concubines over to enjoy the blessings, that is, my uncle is not used to living in the city, and the family needs someone to take care of the farm work, so he came back alone to do farm work, and after a while he will also go to the city, which can be regarded as a coincidence.

I hadn't closed my eyes all night, I had been digging graves, I was so exhausted that I fell asleep on the bed, but in my sleep, the bones of the child in the coffin and the eyes of my father flashed in my mind from time to time.

So, I have been sleeping very unsteadily, so sleepy that I can't open my eyes, but my brain can't enter a deep sleep, and I don't know how long later, I suddenly found that it was dark all around, and I couldn't see my five fingers, only a piece of light in front of me.

Just as I was in doubt, a figure came out of the darkness, it was the girl in the bronze grimace mask, the black cat squatting lazily on her shoulder, looking at me with half-squinted eyes, still with disdain in her eyes.

I was immediately angry, you are a cat, where does the sense of superiority come from?

Just when I was fighting with the black cat with my eyes, the girl suddenly spoke: "Ji Zang, didn't I tell you not to get involved in the matter of the female corpse?" You've messed everything up now, and you know how much aftercare we need to do with such a toss? ”

There was obviously a reproach in these words, and I was already in a bad mood, so I couldn't help but go back: "Are you the king of heaven?" I'm going to do whatever I want me to do. Shall I lie still when I am hunted by demons? ”

The girl was visibly stunned, the cat on her shoulder was not happy, she opened her eyes and hunched over, baring her teeth at me. The girl quickly calmed the black cat and said, "However, this is your mission." ”

"The mission? What mission? "It's my turn to be confused this time, this girl shouldn't be a girl with a second disease, right?

The girl was stunned again, then she stuck her head into the darkness, as if looking for something, and after a while, it dawned on her: "It turns out that you don't know who you are." ”

"Do you know who I am? Tell me quickly. "My ears immediately pricked up, my life changed dramatically, and I now want to know who I really am.

The girl shook her head and quietly changed the topic: "Ji Zang, you have to remember one thing, don't be manipulated by the people around you." ”

"Who? Who will control me? ”

"I can't say it, once I say it, it will be discovered, you must remember, you can't be manipulated, don't trust the people around you, even if you are close." When the girl finished speaking, she was about to retreat into the darkness.

I was in a hurry, and I stepped forward and grabbed her arm: "Tell me quickly, who I am and who wants to manipulate me." ”

When the black cat saw me doing something to the girl, it immediately exploded, jumped up from the girl's shoulder, and dug at my face with a paw, and I only felt a sharp pain in my face, and sat up with a scream.

When I opened my eyes, I found that my uncle was standing on the side of the bed and pushing me, and when he saw my reaction, he couldn't help but be startled: "Xiaozang, have you had a nightmare?" Hey, what's wrong with your face? ”

I stretched out my hand and touched it, and there was a long blood mark on my face, which was oozing blood, and a monstrous wave suddenly turned in my heart: Isn't this the cat in my dream who caught me? Isn't that a dream? Who the hell is that girl?

Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, my uncle urged again: "It's almost eight o'clock now, everyone in the village is ready, go up the mountain to find the mountain monkey, you quickly pack up and go together." ”

As I went up the mountain, I kept thinking about what the masked girl said to me, and there was a lot of information hidden in her words.

Not only did she know who I really was, but she also said that I had a mission, and what was my mission? What does it have to do with my identity?

Also, how did she get into my dreams, and how did she know that I didn't know who I really was? She just stuck her head into the darkness and looked for it, and she knew my memory? How did she do it?

She once rescued me in the hands of a female corpse, and she shouldn't have any ill will towards me, so she said, I don't want to be manipulated by the people around me, who are you talking about? He also said that the other party is very close to me, could it be my family?

No, it's absolutely impossible, my parents and uncles don't even know that I'm not my own, and of course they don't control me. The only one who knows about it may be the godmother, but the godmother is obviously fighting against the female corpse and protecting me.

In this way, no one will manipulate me at all, it should be that this girl is wrong, or she is lying to me.

The more I thought about it, the bigger my head became, and I followed the villagers up the mountain in a daze, aimlessly following my uncle, looking for traces of mountain monkeys.

In fact, there are traces of mountain monkeys, even if the blood stains are broken on the mountainside, you only need to look for those stone caves and rock cracks that have not seen the sun for many years on the mountain, and you will definitely be able to find traces of mountain monkeys, because this thing hates sunlight.

Soon, the villagers found the mountain monkey in a dark rock crevice, which was hiding in the dark rock crevice and sleeping, and the light of the flashlight did not respond to it.

The gunshot wound on its body has healed and recovered, but the wound on its head is still there, but it has improved significantly.

The uncle looked at it for a moment and sighed, "Ordinary weapons are really not enough to damage this thing, and the pistol is not as good as your godmother's cane." ”

Found this thing, the next thing is to burn it with fire, now the technology is developed, but it is not as good as back then, when the villagers cut a lot of pine trees with oil nearby, but the temperature of the firewood is obviously not enough.

This time, the villagers brought not only liquefied gas tanks, but also hydrogen spray guns for electric welding, in addition to several large barrels of kerosene, which could not be extinguished for several hours as long as they were ignited.

The uncle instructed the villagers to stuff two quilts dipped in kerosene into the rock crevices, then poured kerosene on them, and then stuffed the gas canisters into them for bombs, and set up spray guns outside.

When everything was ready, my uncle ordered a fire, and he himself took out the godmother's old cane, which was already a little charred at both ends, and stood outside the rock crevice, waiting for it. The cane was found in the brick kiln when he was digging the grave last night.

As the flames of the spray guns ignited, a burst of flames rose from the crevices in the rock, and the entire mountain trembled as if explosives had been ignited.

There was a terrible wail of the mountain monkey in the rock crevice, and the sound jumped towards the crack of the rock crevice several times, and finally retracted, obviously the liquefied gas and spray gun at the crack had made a contribution, and the other party could not bear the high temperature at all.

Seeing such a situation, my uncle breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the high temperature can really deal with this thing, as long as he doesn't dare to come out, he will be slowly roasted to death inside, anyway, there is a lot of liquefied gas." ”

As soon as my uncle's words fell, the mountain monkey in the cave let out another terrible howl, and the mark on my left arm suddenly became extremely hot, and the sharp pain came to me like a tide.

I looked down and saw a large blister on my left arm, as if it had been burned.
