My eyes were fixed on the front, and I didn't know what to do.

Those grasses are "swishing" and "swishing" apart! A team of people is coming!

These people were all armed with rifles, all of them were wearing gray uniforms of the national army, and red ties were floating around their necks, and the leader shouted: "Surrender the gun and don't kill!" ”

The rest of the soldiers had already gathered around, and immediately there was the sound of guns being loaded.

Seeing this battle, the Zhang brothers threw their guns directly, and immediately knelt without saying a word!

Alain and I are stupid this time!

Only Su Huifang showed a happy smile on her face, only to see her wave her hand vigorously and shout, "Company Commander Chen!" I am here! ”

The leader heard Su Huifang's shout, and when he looked down, he found Su Huifang lying on the ground, with a happy look on his face: "Instructor Su ......"

He saw the wound on Su Huifang's leg at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward to lean over to check it, and asked while looking, "Instructor Su!" How's your injury? We all thought you were sacrificed! ”

Su Huifang nodded and smiled: "Thank you comrades for your concern!" My injuries are fine! Thanks to this little brother! She nodded in my direction!

After hearing this, Company Commander Chen also smiled at me and said, "Little brother! Thank you for your help! ”

I nodded and replied, "You're welcome!" It's just a matter of effort! ”

Company Commander Chen stood up again, turned his head to look at the Zhang family brothers kneeling on the side, his face turned pale, and he said coldly: "Many comrades died in yesterday's battle!" I hate these white dogs who help you do evil the most! ”

With that, he pointed hard at the Zhang family brothers and ordered loudly: "Someone! Shoot these two white dogs on the spot! ”

As soon as the Zhang brothers heard the "execution on the spot", Zhang San was so frightened that he peed his pants directly, and Zhang Jiayu shouted hoarsely: "Spare your life!" Spare your life! We haven't killed anyone! ”

Seeing that the brothers of the Zhang family were in deep danger, I couldn't bear it, so I hurriedly stepped forward and said, "This chief! These two are my friends, and they also helped save Sister Su's life, please open the net! ”

"Saved Instructor Su......" Company Commander Chen turned his head to look at Su Huifang, but Su Huifang gritted his teeth and said: "These two people are greedy for money and profit, they are not good people, they still extort money from the little brother of Fusheng......

"Sister Su, you blame them, the brothers of the Zhang family just woke up, they don't want money, they are righteous!" I hurriedly argued, and then glanced at the Zhang brothers.

"Right? Zhang brothers? ”

When the brothers of the Zhang family saw me throw down this life-saving straw, could they still hold on to it firmly when their lives were at stake?

I saw that their heads were like pounding garlic, and they desperately shouted: "Yes! Oh, yes! We don't want money! We are very righteous! ”

I leaned over and grabbed Zhang Jiayu and said with a wicked smile: "What about the five hundred oceans......

Zhang Jiayu smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master Fusheng, where did you get the five hundred oceans?" Never! Nothing like this......"

I saw that the "trick" succeeded, so I turned my head and pleaded with Su Huifang: "Sister Su, this Zhang brother did help save my sister's life, at most they have some bad intentions, not a big traitor, and ask my sister to spare their lives." ”

After listening to my words, Su Huifang hesitated for a moment before nodding, and Company Commander Chen stopped the other soldiers from coming forward to execute.

He looked at the rifles thrown by the Zhang brothers on the ground again, and ordered: "Then take their guns!" ”

The other soldiers confiscated the weapons of the Zhang brothers, and at the same time recovered Su Huifang's pistol.

Company Commander Chen personally helped Su Huifang up, and personally handed the pistol back to Su Huifang, and Su Huifang asked, "Company Commander Chen!" How was the battle? What about the troops? ”

Company Commander Chen smiled: "Let's fight a big victory!" I'll tell you more when I get back! The boss has ordered the troops to move to southern Gansu, and we are the troops responsible for the rear of the pad! ”

"And how did you get here?" Su Huifang asked again.

Company Commander Chen looked behind Su Huifang and said, "We heard the movement here just now, and we thought there was an enemy, so we rushed over, I really didn't expect you to be here, instructor!" ”

Su Huifang nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's really hard comrades!" Here in the wilderness! It takes a lot of work to climb down, right? ”

Hearing what Su Huifang said, Lian Commander Chen was a little surprised, he pointed to the pine forest behind him and said, "Behind this pine forest is the stone ladder road of Shijingling!" It's only a few minutes before we charge! It didn't take much work, did it? ”

When I heard this, I was suspicious, and I hurriedly rubbed my eyes, and carefully looked at the pine forest in front of me, only to find that the dense pine forest in front of me was gradually becoming sparse, and I could vaguely see the stone steps of Shijingling.

I was puzzled and felt that everything around me was full of weirdness.

The terrain is undulating, and there is obviously a dense forest sea in front of it, and there is no road to pass!

On the left, there is a stream meandering down, and on the right, there is a deep stream next to the stone wall, and the surroundings are precipitous, and they can't be more precipitous!

But now, the stone walls and streams are still there, but the forest sea that can cover the sky and the sun has become sparse.

I can only find two explanations for this situation in my mind.

One is that in the first two hours, we were dazzled, but there were five of us, and five of us were dazzled at the same time, which is absolutely impossible.

There is also an explanation, which is that the place where we came out followed up and the place we went to are two completely different places, but this does not make sense.

Because Alain has been answering us at the mouth of the deep stream.

Could it be that this "Alain" in front of her, she is not Alain at all?

I looked at her with palpitations, and Alain saw that I was staring at her in a daze, and asked me timidly, "Young master, why are you staring at me?" I don't have an arm or a broken leg on my body......"

I asked her coldly, "What's your mother's name?" ”

Alan said dumbfoundedly: "My mother's name is Han Baoying, why are you asking this?" ”

As soon as I heard this, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and complained: "You girl, you scared me to death, you ......"

Alan was confused when he heard this, and said, "Young master, you scared me to death!" You can't hear what you shouted just now, it's always weird......"

I didn't pay attention to what she said, just glanced behind me casually, but I was stunned.

At this moment, I was horrified!

I saw the bottomless deep stream...... It's only more than five feet deep!

Although the surrounding rocks are craggy and dimly lit, the situation below can be roughly understood.

There are only thick pine needle meadows......

No fire, no smoke, and no snake holes! I felt my scalp tingle and cold sweat broke out on my head.

Pointing to the ravine, I asked, "What about this deep stream?" Why is it gone......"

"Young master, what deep stream?" Alan looked at me puzzled: "Sister Su jumped down this deep ditch when she misunderstood, and her life and death were unknown for a while, or did you go down and rescue Sister Su, young master!" ”

My face turned pale, and I turned around and grabbed Zhang Jiayu and asked, "Did you go down with me just now?" ”

"I've just gone down! Young Master Fusheng," Zhang Jiayu said with a surprised face, "Didn't you beckon us to go down!" ”

"Did you see anything?" My heart was sullen, and I was pale as I was comparing the crazy appearance of Fang Cai.

"Nothing, it's this ravine," Zhang Jiayu touched his head, pointed to the deep ditch in front of him and said: "After the two of us brothers went down to help rescue this eldest sister, we saw the young master and you wandering around below, no matter how we call you, you can't hear it, it's really weird." ”

At this moment, I felt a chill down my spine and a chill in my heart.

Could it be that the various experiences in the snake cave, the Zhang family brothers who followed me, and even Alan who cried at the mouth of the deep stream...... It's all my hallucinations?

This is far more than I could have imagined!

This is the evil spirit!

An inexplicable evil!

And it's no one else who is evil!

It's me who is evil!

For two hours, I didn't even know I had fallen into evil!

But something is wrong......

I rubbed my fingers and sniffed again, but the spicy smell of flower water still remained on my fingers, and I couldn't help but be suspicious.

What about the two bottles of toilet water that I just threw with all my might?

I hurriedly looked up and down the ravine, but I couldn't find a single fragment of the bottle, and it seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

Am we not here at all, but somewhere else?

Even Alain, is the "me" they see imaginary?

What is so strange about this, so weird?

The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and when I was still dazed, Alan reminded me on the side: "Young master, I think it will be dark in half an hour!" Now that we've found our way, let's hurry down the mountain! ”

Company Commander Chen also said to Su Huifang: "Instructor Su, we must retreat immediately, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the big army!" ”

Su Huifang nodded, turned to me and said, "Little brother Fusheng!" We're retreating! Don't leave it at that! ”

I was a little distracted, and it took me to come back to my senses after listening to her words.

"Sister Su is polite! Say goodbye! ”

Su Huifang stepped forward and took Alain's hand, looked at me again, and said, "Sister Alain! In fact, your young master is not a landlord class! He's still quite kind! Others are stupid and have a lot of money...... He's a capitalist roader at best! After saying this, she smiled, and Company Commander Chen got up on her back and evacuated in the direction of Dongliu.

"The capitalist roaders...... Alan was stunned for a long time, then turned his head to me and asked, "Young master, what do you call a capitalist roader?" ”

When I saw this girl's stupid appearance, my spirit came up again.

"I'm not a capitalist roader! I'm ......."

"Serious Lao Tzu faction! Lao Tzu's biggest pie! ”

"Let's go! Let's go down the mountain! ”

After saying this, my heart rose a lot, turned around and strode forward, Alan hurriedly followed, and the Zhang brothers reacted and hurriedly chased after him.

When we arrived at the foot of the mountain, it was just after evening, and at this time, people at the mountain pass had already felt the cold air in the mountain, and everyone looked back at the stone path and ladder that was gradually hidden in the darkness, and couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, a black monster rushed out of the woods on the side and rushed towards us.

The sky was dark and I couldn't see the appearance of this monster for a while, and the Zhang brothers were so frightened that they immediately hid behind me, only Alain stood in front of me, and I heard her shout ecstatically: "My mule!" ”

It turned out to be Alain's mule, and I was immediately relieved.

The beast ran in front of her, and was grabbed by her, and was "whirring" with a rough breath, obviously smelling the smell of his master, and was trying to have fun!

I said, "Okay! The shot didn't scare you away! You're a clever brute, too! ”

"It's not smart!" Alain smiled at me, took out his pocket, and fed the mule before saying, "It's waiting for me!" ”

"I said it!" I patted the mule's head gently.

"Stupid, stupid, with your master!"

Alain gave me an angry look.

I smiled and didn't provoke her again, lowered my head and pondered carefully, it seems that today's return to Dongliu is completely ruined!

According to the temper of the second uncle, there are not many of me, and there are not many of me! As soon as noon arrived, he patted his ass and left, the caravan must have already set off for Huichang, and I didn't believe it this time, I sat down in a real way, and I waited to be beaten when we met.

The second uncle's face of Bao Gong, who doesn't eat water and rice, let's find a way to deal with it in the future, and it seems that he can only go back to the city first.

Thinking of this, I said to everyone, "Okay, now that we have a mule cart, let's go back to the city as soon as possible!" ”

The Zhang brothers lost their guns and left the order again, and they knew in their hearts that even if they returned to the Dongliu People's League, there would be no good fruit to eat!

Today's militia suffered a big defeat, and the regimental training Zhong Guangyao also braided, listening to this dog's leg shouting before he died, He Pengling was killed, but we didn't see it, I can't say for a while, but in short, it's not good.

He Pengling is a tyrant in Nanwu County, but there is not only one Dongliu People's Group in Nanwu County, but also several groups of people! is the so-called temple demon wind, if the Dongliu militia declines, the other people are about to make trouble, and the county police station is not vegetarian! This small place seems to be in the midst of an eventful time right now.

Under my repeated advice, they had no choice but to go back to their homes in the city first, thinking that they would wait for the turmoil to pass before making plans.

After Alain prepared the mule cart, the four of us rushed to the county seat of Nanwu.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the county seat, I learned that there was a curfew in the county, and when the guys from the police station saw that it was me, they didn't dare to offend my eldest young master of the Lu family, so they didn't say a word, let me go!

After a hard day's work, we finally returned to Chengguan.

The Zhang brothers' lives were not lost, which is already a blessing! The two of them pondered in private, but they didn't dare to ask me for money again, so they said goodbye and went home.

When we arrived at the south gate, Alan and I placed the mule cart in the back alley, and Uncle Liang was drinking and counting the moon with a bowl of soybeans!

As soon as the mule cart was entrusted, we slipped back into the Lu house through the back door of the house, and when Alan asked the people under the house, he learned that only my mother's food was prepared in the room today, and my father had not come home at all.

When I heard this, I was overjoyed, and told Alain to wait for me for a while, and then went to the study, took two more bottles of toilet water, and turned back to look for her.

At this time, she had already packed up the miscellaneous items in the room, filled half a bucket of leftovers, and was about to go home.

I handed her the toilet water, and she said no, I was really annoyed.

"You stubborn girl! Risking such a risk with me today, what's wrong with me sending you something? You don't want it yet! If you don't want me, I'll tell your mother! ”

I took the barrel and got on the mule cart, urging her to drive the mule cart for almost a quarter of an hour, and finally arrived at the Chengguan Catholic Church.

This church is not far from my home, about two miles away, is located in the Orchid Garden near the South Gate Bridge, I heard my second uncle say, this place was built in the 29th year of Guangxu, that is, in 1903 of the Western calendar, is the main church of the diocese of Tingzhou.

The Holy See designated the Fujian Catholic Church as the mission area of the Dominican Spanish Order in Manila, and the original Spanish priests Song Jinling, Lu Liang and others had been preaching here since 1890. At present, there are a church with civil structures, a bishop's building, a priest's building, a priest's building, and a nuns' building.

In recent years, the reputation of the Dominican Society has become more and more famous. In addition to the establishment of a clinic in the clergy building, which made it easier for many poor people to come here to seek medical advice, there was a more important reason, and this reason made me feel ashamed and angry.

In our western Fujian area, especially in Nanwu and Shanghang, the folk customs of preference for sons over daughters are prevalent, and the poor have multiple female babies, and they are unable to raise them, in addition to giving them away as child daughters-in-law, they are mostly abandoned. Fortunately, there is a nursery in the nuns' building, and most of those who are abandoned here can be accommodated. This Dominican church became famous and became known as an abandoned baby land.

If it weren't for Sister Bai Dezhen and Aunt Han who had been running the nursery, I am afraid that this quiet orchid garden would have already become a cemetery for orphaned souls.

When we arrived at the church, it was already Shenshi, and it was already dark, so she unloaded the frame, tied the mule to the stable of the orchid garden, added some hay, and fed two large spoonfuls of water, and then carefully carried down the half bucket of leftovers, and hurried into the alleyway.

The entrance of the alleyway is next to a half-foot high low wall, which has fallen into disrepair and collapsed, and after Father Garcer asked someone to clean it, it was simply changed to a side door, also to facilitate the entry and exit of volunteers.

Alain walked ahead of me, and just arrived at the door, only to see the light green mixed with dark green wall clothes in front of me spread up, revealing the mottled stone bricks on the wall, and there seemed to be a fluffy thing on the stone bricks that was shaking slightly, and with a "swish" sound, two green eyes appeared!

This monster, if people who don't know it, will be frightened when they see it, but when I see Alain, we are not half afraid.

Alan raised his head, smiled lightly, and shouted softly, "Changwu! ”

The green eyes of the monster on the wall blinked, and the "grunt" responded, at this time the moonlight gradually brightened, and the monster in the darkness opened its wings slightly, revealing its true face, it turned out to be a dark red night owl, the night owl is commonly known as the night owl, the owl, is an expert at catching mice, but the average person has very little, most of them are only wild.

The night owl in front of me was more than two feet long, and its stocky body seemed to be a little bulky, but in fact, it was not clumsy at all, I saw that its eyes lit up, and suddenly it screamed!

The bird of prey leaped to its feet, and its body was extremely fast! A pair of wings stretched out in the air, flapped twice, and in an instant, they had already swept over our heads and swooped down behind me!

I was startled, and hurriedly looked back, only to see a strange black shadow at the corner of the alleyway not far behind me, which seemed to be dispersing.

The night owl swooped down on the corner of the wall, stretched out two sharp claws and slashed into the air, and the black shadow twisted in an instant, and by the time I tried to distinguish it more closely, the shadow had turned into black smoke and disappeared.

When I was in shock, a coquettish voice came from behind me: "Changwu! Come back! ”

When the night owl heard the command, it spun around in the air and flew back, and as soon as it folded its wings, it landed on the raised arm of the speaker.

I hurriedly looked back, and only smiled after seeing it clearly, and then I heard Alan shouting softly: "Auntie! ”

This person walked out from behind the stone wall, and saw that this person was wearing a coarse cloth jacket, his figure looked quite strong, his hair was coiled in a bun on his head, and his deep eyes were as calm as water, who else could it be if it wasn't Aunt Han?

I only heard Aunt Han say, "Lan, you're back!" ”

Alain replied with an "um".

I was overjoyed and said, "Auntie! I've come to see you! ”

Aunt Han was not half happy when she saw me, and asked me with a cold face: "Fusheng, what unclean things have you provoked this time?" ”

I was shocked when I heard this, and it was not easy for me to settle down.

From childhood to adulthood, whenever there are some moths, there is nothing to hide in the eyes of Aunt Han, who called her a guest teacher! I thought about it and knew that I couldn't hide it from her, so it was better to tell the truth.

So I told Aunt Han all the things that happened to the two arms and arms in Shijingling today, as well as the evil things in the mountain road that we panicked about.

Among them, about the matter of straying into the snake cave, Alan on the side also heard me mention it for the first time, and for a while his face turned pale and cold sweat broke out.

These things that she had never experienced before, came out of my mouth as if they were there.

It's too weird, it's too bizarre......

After listening to my words, Aunt Han's face became more and more cold.

"Fusheng, are you sure that mountain madness was burned to death?"

I swallowed and nodded hesitantly.

"The giant snake caused a fire, and thousands of snake eggs exploded, just like the cannon battle during the Chinese New Year, and now it seems that it is too dead to die......

Aunt Han was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and sighed deeply.

"If what you say is true, then this mountain madness is really ruined today! Ahem......"

When I saw Aunt Han sighing, I asked, "Auntie! What are you sighing for? ”

Aunt Han shook her head slowly and said, "If it is an ordinary person, if you encounter a broken family, at most you will swallow your anger!" ”

She said this for a moment, as if remembering something from a long time ago, and I saw a slight tear in the corner of her eye, which made me wonder, but I did not dare to ask more.

After a while, Aunt Han came back to her senses before continuing: "But if it's a mountain madness that has lived for hundreds of years!" When encountering such a broken family, how can you make it swallow this breath! ”

"Snakes have a vicious and strange mind, they will take revenge, and they are the best at killing people in invisible ......"

"Those dark shadows just now, I guess it's the monster who wants to find you for revenge......"
