At this time, the female corpse had been put into the pit for my father with his back facing the sky, and it was ready to be filled with earth. Listening to Wang Sihe say this, my father stopped the shovel in his hand and glanced at the belly of the female corpse, I really didn't pay attention to it before, my father found at this time that the female corpse's small belly was indeed a little bulging, although it was not obvious, but it was definitely bigger than the belly of ordinary people.

My father was young at that time and didn't know anything about the world, so he looked at the belly of the female corpse for a while, and said to Wang Sihe: "I don't think I'm full, like I'm hungry, edema, and when there is a famine, many people don't have big bellies." ”

Wang Sihe was more ignorant than my father at that time, and when he heard my father say this, he nodded and believed it. Then, the two men picked up the shovel and buried the two corpses in three strokes and five divisions.

Many years later, as my father grew older, he felt more and more that the female corpse was not suffering from edema, but that she was pregnant before she died. Tragedies like this were numerous at the time. There are also pregnant women who have miscarriages, which is not uncommon.

After returning to the town and returning the cart and shovel, my father and I went straight to school. When they came to the gate of the school, they found that the school was full of people, and when the two of them saw this battle, they immediately understood what was going on.

On the opposite side of the crowd, a small platform was temporarily erected, presumably made of desks pieced together.

On the platform, there are two rows of people standing in front and back, and in the front row are a few people wearing pointed paper hats and hanging cards around their necks, because the distance is a little far, they can't see the faces of these people clearly, and it feels that these people are not young anymore.

Among these people, there is a very special one, the others are all drooping heads, looking like a rat crossing the street, "I am guilty, I deserve to die", only this one, with his chest held high, with a posture of a revolutionary martyr going to the execution ground with righteousness and awe, and he still looks like a very old woman, with gray hair and unkempt.

Behind these people, there was still a row of people, there could be five or six, including Zhou Jianhong, Xiaoru, and several other men and women, all of whom were the leaders of their Red Star faction.

At this time, that Xiaoru was holding a piece of manuscript paper in his hand, and he was looking down at the manuscript paper and reading loudly: Cow Ghost Snake God XX, male, Cow Ghost Snake God XX, female......

After reading the names, begin to read the crimes of these people. My father didn't want to hear this, because my grandmother is also a cow ghost and snake god, and she is also criticized like this, and these rabbit cubs can press your head on any false charge.

As soon as my father pulled Wang Sihe, he didn't enter the school gate, but turned around and went back to the town, and the two of them walked around the town like sightseeing.

This town is quite large, with a lot of people and houses, but on the walls of each street, there are big-character posters in black and white, and the whole town seems to be shrouded in white terror, and the people in the town are all looking wizened.

In fact, nothing got better, and the whole town was lifeless and depressed. The two of them wandered around like this until it was almost noon, and they felt that the criticism meeting was over, and then they returned to school.

At this time, the criticism meeting has indeed ended, and although the stage is still there, the people on and off the stage have already dispersed.

After the two of them returned to school, they went straight to Zhou Jianhong's office. Originally, the two of them wanted to leave, but they were too embarrassed to panic when they thought about it, they couldn't bury the dead for them in vain, how could they have some hard money, besides, there were more than ten days to go home, if there was no penny on them, they would have to be hungry in two days, although there were other Red Guard reception stations, but where those reception stations, whether the money was good or not, it was an unknown, it was better to get some ready-made travel expenses here first.

When they came to Zhou Jianhong's office, they pushed open the door and looked inside, and the two of them were immediately stunned, but they didn't expect that there were quite a lot of people in the office at this time, and they roughly swept it, several leaders of the Red Star Sect were there, and a group of people seemed to be in a meeting.

As soon as the two of them saw this formation, they turned around and wanted to retreat, but they stopped Zhou Jianhong when he got up, "Jia Fuqian, Jia Fukun, you two comrades came just in time, I just happened to be looking for you for something." ”

When my father heard this, he looked at each other, why the hell are you so inch, every time you come over, you just happen to have something to look for us? My father couldn't help it, so he walked in.

There were seven or eight people in the office, all sitting in chairs, and my father was standing. Zhou Jianhong also stood at this time, pressed his hands on the desk in front of him, and said to my father and the other: "Today's criticism meeting held by our Red Star faction was not very smooth, and others are okay to say, the four girls of the cow ghost, snake and god, do not admit their guilt to death, which has brought great resistance to our revolutionary work, and the organization unanimously passed and decided to assign you two comrades a difficult task. Zhou Jianhong said this, looked at my father, looked at Wang Sihe, and asked, "Do you have the confidence to finish?" ”

My father and Wang Sihe glanced at each other, and scolded in their hearts, what the hell is the bullshit task, before he said it, he asked if he had the confidence to complete it, isn't this a pit person.

Wang Sihe blinked, looked around, looked at Zhou Jianhong again, and said, "Even if you arrange it, no matter what the task, we will ensure that it will be completed successfully." My father glanced at Wang Sihe, and it seemed that he could only say this now.

Seeing that Zhou Jianhong nodded with satisfaction, he continued: "The organization plans to arrange for the two of you to take turns to take care of the four girls of the cow, ghost, snake and god, and before she admits the crime she has committed, you can't let her have an accident, understand?" ”

As soon as my father heard it, he understood that they had met someone as stubborn as my grandmother, and it was estimated that the "four girls" were the same as my grandmother, no matter how they criticized, they just didn't admit their crimes. People like this, these Red Guards don't want them to die until they hear them say "I'm guilty, I deserve to die", this is a deformed and perverted psychology, only when they hear them say "I'm guilty, I deserve to die", these Red Guards feel that they have defeated the bull ghosts, snakes, and gods, and the twisted perverts will feel transparent and comfortable in their hearts.

Thinking of my grandmother, my father became angry in his heart, and asked Zhou Jianhong coldly: "Where is the cow ghost and snake god now?" ”

Zhou Jianhong was stunned for a moment, didn't pay attention to my father's cold tone, and asked my father, "Didn't you participate in this morning's criticism meeting?" ”

My father glanced at him and replied, "I didn't catch up, and the criticism meeting was over when we came back." ”

When Zhou Jianhong heard this, he tapped his fingers on the table and said: "Comrade Jia Fuqian, I am going to criticize you, it took you a whole morning to bury two corpses, and the revolutionary efficiency is too low, so you must correct your revolutionary attitude in the future." ”

When my father heard this, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he just wanted to say that what if I didn't have a proper attitude.

But before my father could speak, Wang Sihe hurriedly said: "What Comrade Zhou said is that we will definitely correct our revolutionary attitude in the future, and you comrades can supervise our performance next time!" ”

Zhou Jianhong heard Wang Sihe say this, nodded, and said: "Okay, the four girls of the cow ghost, snake and god are locked up in the morgue, and the two of you must ensure that she survives at least until the criticism meeting tomorrow afternoon." ”

"Comrade Zhou, please rest assured, comrades, we promise to complete the task successfully!" Wang Sihe said loudly.

After the two of them left the office, Wang Sihe saw that there was no one around, and whispered to my father: "Brother, your temper has to be changed, when our grandfather taught us to practice martial arts, he didn't often tell us that a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake." ”

When my father heard Wang Sihe say this, he gritted his teeth and nodded. Before they knew it, the two men were walking towards the morgue.

On a wooden beam in the morgue, a straw rope was tied, and at the other end of the straw rope, two wrists were tied, and a person was hanging, judging from her clothes and figure, it was an old woman, her head drooping, and she could only see her full head of gray hair. Fortunately, the old woman was only hanging with two arms, and her feet were still next to the ground, and if she had been suspended in the air, she would have dislocated her arms long ago.

My father saw that this was not the old man who had held his head high on the stage before.

When I walked up to the old woman, I saw that the old woman had her eyes closed, and her wrinkled face was full of dark red finger prints, and she seemed to have fainted at this time.

Seeing the appearance of the old woman, my father thought of my grandmother again, and he couldn't help but feel angry again.

Looking back at the door, seeing that there was no one near the door, my father shouted twice at the old woman: "Auntie, aunt ......"

The old woman's body moved, paused for a moment, opened her eyes, and slowly raised her head.

My father saw it more clearly at this time, and the old woman's entire face was full of fingerprints, blue and red, which were undoubtedly beaten.

The old woman raised her head, squinted her eyes and looked at my father, then turned her head to look at Wang Sihe beside my father, and finally, her eyes fell on my father.

After looking my father up and down a few times, the old woman asked my father in a low voice, "Little brother, what is your name?" ”

The old woman's mouth is full of local dialects, but fortunately, there is not much difference between them and our Henan dialects, and they can barely understand them. According to my father's estimate, they should not have left the border of Hebei at this time, that is, this town should be in Hebei.

My father didn't expect the old woman to ask his name with one mouth, of course he wouldn't tell the truth in the face of a stranger, my father said: "My name is Jia Fuqian......" and then glanced at Wang Sihe beside him, "This is my brother Jia Fukun." ”

When the old woman heard this, she looked at my father and Wang Sihe, and she actually laughed, and the sound of laughter was very harsh, just like the laughter of "coo-meow" at night, coo-meow is our dialect here, and it is also an owl.

The old woman laughed for a while before stopping, and said to my father, "Little brother, I see you...... Don't have the surname Jia. ”

Although the old woman's face was bruised and her hair was scattered, and she looked very embarrassed, her eyes were shining, and my father was shocked, as if she had seen through the whole thing.

The old woman snorted and continued: "You can hide it from others, you can't hide it from me, the smell on your body is different from others, and the 'fire' on your body is not the same as other people's. Speaking of this, the old woman smiled again, "Your family is also a cow ghost and snake god, and your ancestors have eaten yin rice for several generations, right?" ”

As soon as my father heard the old woman's words, his face immediately changed, and my father wanted to ask the old woman, how do you know, but he swallowed it back again. As soon as these words are asked, isn't it equivalent to not admitting themselves, if you let those Red Guards outside know, I'm afraid that neither of you will be able to leave.

My father's face was flushed, and Wang Sihe's face was not good-looking at this time. The two of them looked at the old woman in horror.

The old woman continued: "Don't worry, you two, I won't tell anyone else, but ......" The old woman looked at my father again and said, "Little brother, for the sake of me and your family, can you do me a favor?" ”

My father looked at the old woman and asked with a cautious expression, "What's busy?" ”

The old woman took a deep breath and said, "Before the third watch today, you come to my house and give me the burden I hid under the bed, okay?" ”

Without waiting for my father to answer, Wang Sihe asked, "What's in the baggage?" ”

The old woman glanced at Wang Sihe and said, "What is life-saving......
