Chapter 34: Fingers

Zhou Shizhu's fingers were twisted so badly that just looking at them would hurt him.

The bones seemed to be completely broken, and the knuckles were snow-white in the bends, a lifeless color......

"Is the big fool not killing you, or is Li Xiu not killing you?" Shippo asked suddenly.

"I don't know......." Zhou Shizhu didn't seem to feel the pain, still holding his head tightly, curled up under the stone ridge on the side of the road, and couldn't stop his tears: "They didn't kill me....... But he killed a lot of people in the village......"

I didn't speak, squatted down, asked for a cigarette from Qibao, and handed it to the Zhou Shizhu.

When I helped the surnamed Zhou to light it, he couldn't calm down, he was stunned and held a cigarette, looked at the ground, and didn't squeak for a long time.

"Brother Zhou, have you ever helped a big fool?" I asked him in a low voice.

Zhou Shizhu nodded, took a puff of cigarette, and seemed to calm down: "Helped....... It turned out to help a lot of ......."

"What about Li Xiu? Have you helped her? I asked again.

This time, Zhou Shizhu didn't answer, thought carefully for two minutes, and finally said: "I helped her intercede, and I also helped her deliver food, the village chief and his son were originally ready to be strong, and in the end they all let me persuade ......"

"Isn't that right?" I laughed and said, "It's understandable that they let you go." ”

"Old Shen, is this called letting him go?" Qibao frowned: "Look at his hand...... Even if it can be cured, it will have to leave sequelae in the future! ”

Zhou Shizhu didn't care about Qibao's words, squatting in the corner, smoking a cigarette with his head down, and his body would tremble from time to time, as if he hadn't recovered from his fear.

"Life is still there, it's stronger than anything else." I whispered, comforting him: "It's good that you're alive, go back and find a better hospital, maybe you can ....... it."

Before I could finish speaking, Zhou Shizhu asked me, "Are you going to find Li Xiu?" ”

I nodded, saying I had to find it.

"Although your village is sorry for us, we still have a bottom line......." I sighed: "I can ignore other people, but those careless children, I have to be saved." ”

"Then I have to thank you." Zhou Shizhu laughed miserably: "I didn't expect that the last incense in our village still has to be saved by you, the person who was killed by us." ”

"Li Xiu, where did they go?" I asked, not following his topic.

Zhou Shizhu didn't squeak, raised his hand, and pointed to the back alley.

"You hurry up, get out of this village first, or ......"

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of death."

As he said this, his expression suddenly calmed down, as if he had figured it out, and he took a big gulp of half a cigarette, and his eyes became more and more calm.

"Who is without fault in this?" Zhou Shizhu muttered: "I am also wrong, if I were really a good person, I should have gone to the police eight years earlier and let the police save them...... But I didn't!! ”

Speaking of this, the expression on Zhou Shizhu's face became more and more excited, his eyes were red as he looked at us, and every word that came out of his mouth trembled.

"The people in our village deserve to die, and I shouldn't live either, Mr. Shen!!" Zhou Shizhu suddenly stood up and said very eagerly, "You let me follow you!" ”

"It's better to have some things to do." I sighed and couldn't help but shake my head: "You don't have to think about it, to be honest, I think you deserve to live, not to die." ”

Zhou Shizhu was stunned: "Why?" ”

"First, Li Xiu's death has nothing to do with you, it's love to help her, it's duty not to help, if you help Li Xiu, how many people in the village will have to kill you?" I laughed and said, "Second, you are more human than everyone in this village.......

As I spoke, I put away my smile and looked at Lord Zhou very seriously.

"You don't deserve to die because of those two things, you know?"

At this time, Qibao also opened his mouth, and waved his hand at the Zhou master helplessly and said, "What can't die, your life is not your life?" You still have a wife and children! Can't you think more about your family? ”

Hearing Qibao mention his family, Zhou Shizhu sobered up a little, and his expression became complicated, and he didn't speak for a long time.

"You withdraw from the village first, and we'll talk about other things later, we still have to find Li Xiu......"

I waved my hand and walked away with Shippo without looking back.

Zhou Shizhu did not move, but looked at us from a distance, and failed to follow us from beginning to end.

Maybe he also figured it out, it's not worth it at all to put his life into this matter.

"By the way, Shippo, I almost forgot something...... What about the squirrels?? ”

When I asked this, my face was full of worry, this time Qibao and they came to me, and they didn't mention the matter of the rat from beginning to end, could it be that the fat mouse died??

Thinking of this possibility, I panicked even more urgently.

Don't look at the time I haven't been with the rat for a long time, but this relationship is not bad, and they usually go out for a walk with me..... To say that there is no emotion is definitely false!

"Hey! I forgot to tell you! Qibao patted his head and looked at me in distress: "The mouse is not dead, but he is injured, and the injury is not light, the front foot took us into the mountain, and the back foot was unconscious, and he has not woken up yet." ”

As soon as the words fell, Qibao beckoned Chang Longxiang to take off his backpack and let me see if the mouse was still saved.

When Chang Longxiang opened the backpack, I took a flashlight and went up to take a look, and the stone in my heart fell in an instant.

"Is this a serious injury?" I asked Shippo tentatively.

"That's not right...... It wasn't like that a few hours ago...... There's a lot of blood on his body! Shippo looked surprised, as if he didn't expect the situation to turn out like this.

As usual, the rat curled up in a ball and lay in his bag like a big furball.

There are a lot of bloodstained gauze bandages around it, look at the model....... It seems that it was all brought by Chen Qiuyan!

There was a lot of blood on the gauze, and the pungent smell of blood could be smelled the moment the bag was opened, but at this time, the rat didn't look like it was injured.

From head to toe, the hair was shiny, and there was not a trace of blood stained on the body.

Not even the blood was visible, let alone the wounds.

"It's really badly injured! I kid you not! Qibao hurriedly said: "There are still two wounds on his back!" You can see the bones! ”

I nodded, but I didn't doubt Qibao's words, and after a careful observation, I made sure that the rat was not in any danger, and his breathing was still steady, so I asked Chang Longxiang to carry the bag back.

"I guess it's self-healing." I said, my expression a little uncertain, after all, this was the first time I had encountered such a situation.

Chang Longxiang asked curiously: "Can the speed of self-healing be so fast?" ”

"Who knows." I spread my hands and said helplessly: "For now, there is only one explanation, the rat is not an ordinary animal, it is evil in its body, if you calculate it carefully, it can also be regarded as a kind of wrong." ”

A type of iniquity.

Hearing this explanation, Chang Longxiang and Qibao seemed to understand, and nodded in unison and stopped asking.

At this moment, in the old alley in front of us on the left, there was a heart-rending cry for help.

The person who asked for help was a man, judging from the voice, he should not be young, at least forty years old.

When he shouted for help, he cried out, even if we hadn't touched it yet, whether it was me or Shippo and them, we could feel the fear in the man's tone.

"I'll take the lead, Qibao, you and the fat man." I whispered, pulled out the coffin nail pinned to my waist, and my tone was a lot more solemn: "If Li Xiu does it with us, then it will be considered our bad luck, don't run into it, just turn around and run!" ”

As I spoke, I looked up at the alley where the cries for help were coming from.

No problem with the alley.

But the sky above the alley was noticeably greener.

Extremely dense green mist floated in mid-air.

If my judgment is correct, these green mist should all be yin vaporization.

Unlike the green mist I had seen earlier, these dozen or so green mist had just come up from the alley.

I didn't see the front clearly, but I could see the last few groups more clearly than anyone else.

"Where is Li Xiu?" Shippo asked me.

I hummed, pulled out two more coffin nails, and handed them out to Shippo.

"How?" Qibao took the artifact and asked me, "What will you do when you meet?" ”

I shook my head and said, we can't do it blindly, we have to talk about the rules, we have to .......

"Salute first, then soldier."
