Section 5 Outbreak
Zhang Peng couldn't breathe, he only felt that his chest was extremely dull, and he was about to suffocate. His face turned blue, his lips were purple, he was trembling, and he slowly withdrew from the kitchen.
But as soon as he turned his head, he saw the terrifying doll appearing on the refrigerator, with its mouth cracked, smiling strangely at him, and holding a bright fruit knife in its hand.
"Wow!"
He was so frightened that he screamed uncontrollably, rushed out of the hallway, and ran down the floor.
Downstairs, Ma Jinglei was about to close the door when she saw Zhang Peng running over in a panic.
"What's wrong?" She walked out and asked.
Seeing Ma Jinglei, Zhang Peng's feet were weak and he almost fell. Ma Jinglei hurriedly greeted him and supported him with both hands.
Smelling the faint fragrance on her body, and a soft feeling came from her arm, Zhang Peng finally recovered from fear.
"Ah~" Ma Jinglei blamed, "It's so big, and it's reckless, what should I do if it breaks?" She pinched Zhang Peng's nose, "When your parents asked, they thought that your aunt had treated you badly." ”
"No, Auntie is very good to me......" Zhang Peng gasped and added, "Pigs can see it." ”
Ma Jinglei pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "What's the matter, you met cockroaches again?" ”
"No...... It's not ......," Zhang Peng hurriedly denied.
"What's going on?" Ma Jinglei said strangely.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing...... It's just ......" Zhang Peng's brain teaser was running rapidly, and he said, "It's too hot, I want to drink soda, I'm afraid you'll close the door." ”
"Oh~" Ma Jinglei nodded thoughtfully.
Then, the two went back to the store. Zhang Peng took out a soda from the refrigerator and grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the bulk bottle on the cupboard. then drank soda while sipping melon seeds, and chatted with Ma Jinglei without a word.
It can be seen from what happened just now that the doll is afraid of Ma Jinglei. When Ma Jinglei was there, it didn't dare to come up, but as soon as Ma Jinglei left, it jumped out again. For the sake of safety, he can only stay here first, and Ma Jinglei can't do anything about him anyway.
The relationship between the three of them can be compared to the game of chess. Zhang Peng is a mouse, the doll is a wolf, and Ma Jinglei is an elephant. Wolves can bite rats to death, elephants can trample wolves, rats can burrow into elephants' stomachs and make noise, one thing and one thing.
When Zhang Peng was thinking, Ma Jinglei was also thinking.
Xiaopeng's performance today is a bit weird, one moment saying that there are cockroaches, and the other time saying that he wants to drink soda, what is the idea?
Could it be......
Thinking of this, her face was a little feverish, and she quickly shook her head, throwing those impossible and strange thoughts out of her mind.
He's still a child, she said to herself.
Zhang Peng ate the melon seeds slowly, thinking about tonight's arrival. Above the commissary is an attic with two beds, one for Ma Jinglei and the other for her two daughters.
Would he be able to make up a night here and sleep in her daughter's bed? Anyway, the two families are so familiar that the relationship shouldn't be big, so it's a big deal to help them wash the sheets tomorrow. And just like that, he made a decision.
I don't know how long it took, Ma Jinglei yawned and said to Zhang Peng, "Xiaopeng, you still have to go to work tomorrow." ”
"No, you don't." Zhang Peng replied dryly. He can go to that company if he wants to, and he won't go if he doesn't want to go.
Ma Jinglei bit her lip and said, "Although I don't have to go to work tomorrow, I go to bed too late, which is not good for my health." ”
"The air conditioner above me is broken, there are many mosquitoes, and I can't sleep." Zhang Peng said.
"Then you give the key to Auntie, Auntie goes to sleep, you help Auntie look after the store here, okay?" Ma Jinglei asked.
"This ......" Zhang Peng was stunned for a moment, the doll was afraid that it would entangle him, in case he would run to the store, what would he do, so he put on a pitiful expression and said, "Auntie, I'm afraid of cockroaches, let's sleep together tonight." Then he added, "It's not like I haven't tried before." ”
"It's so old, and you still want to breastfeed." Ma Jinglei blurted out, and then realized that she had said the wrong thing, and the red tide rose at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the roots of her ears were red and clear, as if there was a fire burning.
Zhang Peng was also stunned, touched his nose, and looked a little embarrassed.
After being silent for a while, Ma Jinglei took the lead in breaking the silence, looked at Zhang Peng, and said seriously, "Xiaopeng, in Auntie's eyes, you are my child......"
"When you were young, your aunt bathed you, helped you get dressed, sang to you, and hugged you to sleep."
"But you're grown up now......"
"A seven-foot man, standing up to the sky."
"Auntie is a widow, if you don't know the right thing now, others will definitely chew the root of your tongue behind your back and point fingers."
"Auntie doesn't matter, that's how Auntie is in this life."
"But you are different, you still have a happy life, and you can't let people tarnish your reputation." As she spoke, Ma Jinglei's eyes filled with tears.
In the face of such affectionate words, Zhang Peng is no matter how thick-skinned he is, he is embarrassed not to leave. Immediately turned away, leaving a dashing back.
Mom/One/Bi, what should I do tonight?
If you can't go back to home, is there anything worse than this!
I don't know why, Zhang Peng's heart burned with fire, and he was bold.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
Ma Jinglei had just inserted the latch, and there was a rapid knock on the door, so she had to put down the latch and open a gap. I thought to myself, what bad idea is this kid fighting again.
"Auntie, do you have any rice bags?" Zhang Peng asked.
"Rice bags?" Ma Jinglei wondered.
"Yes, it's just for rice, and other cloth bags are fine, just be sturdy." Zhang Peng gestured.
"You wait......" Ma Jinglei closed the door, and it didn't take long for her to go and return, stuffing out a white rice bag.
"Thank you." Zhang Peng took the rice bag and went upstairs directly.
The door of the house was still open, and I was too scared to close it just now.
"Isn't it just a doll, what's so scary?"
"Since I was a child, my brother has gone up to the mountains to dig birds' eggs and go down to the river to catch big fish, what do you dare not do?"
"I am known as the Red Star Xiao Lu Bu, and I am invincible all over the world."
"Someone calls me Dong Zhuo, the little Dong Zhuo of thermal power, and his subordinates are like clouds, doing everything in the world."
He rushed into the living room, holding the mouth of the cloth bag in both hands, and was about to put the doll on the refrigerator, but found that there was nothing there.
"Hiss......"
He took a cool breath, and half of the courage he had just gotten up dissipated, and continued to fall......
To keep his courage up, he sang quietly.
"We are the successors of communism, inheriting the glorious traditions of our revolutionary forefathers......"
That's right, this is the old version of the Young Pioneers March, the ballad he is most familiar with.
"Love the motherland, love the people, the bright red scarf flutters on the chest."
At this point, he rushed into the main room, and at a glance he saw the doll on the bedside table, staring at him with pale eyes.
"Not afraid of difficulties, not afraid of enemies, tenacious study, resolute struggle, towards victory, bravely forward, towards victory, courageously, forward!"
He sang a song of triumph, pounced on it, grabbed the doll, quickly tied it, rushed downstairs, strode towards the outside of the courtyard.
Fifteen minutes later, he appeared on the embankment outside the compound, looked at the dark river, rounded his arms, and was about to throw the cloth bag into the river.
But at this moment, he suddenly remembered that this doll was very weird, and maybe it would come back. He looked around, and soon found a palm-sized stone, threw the cloth bag on the ground, and smashed it down with all his might.
"Smack!"
With a crackling sound, a terrible cry came from the cloth bag, like a baby and an old man, and it was terrifying to hear, and at the same time, bright red blood seeped out of the cloth bag.
Zhang Peng is usually mild-mannered, and even a little cowardly, but if he is in a hurry, he will be ruthless, just like a hungry wolf fighting for food, and a tiger going down the mountain, as if he has eaten the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and he can do anything.
"Smack!" "Smack!" "Smack!" "Smack!" "Smack!" "Smack!" "Smack!"
He smashed it one after the other, his expression hideous and terrifying.
"Tell you to scare my brother, tell you to kill Lao Wang!" He smashed and yelled until the whole bag was deflated and the crying was gone.
"Die!" He roared, threw the sack into the river, and sank with a "plop" sound.
"Hmph, fight with my brother, you're still tender." Zhang Peng scolded and went back to the compound.
As he walked, he suddenly felt some pain in his calf. Looking down, the pants were red. He quickly rolled up his pants and found that his calf was bleeding.
He was startled and quickly walked under the street lamp. In the dim light, he saw a gash more than ten centimeters long on his right calf, which was bubbling with blood.
When he was injured, he didn't even know at all!
What's even more amazing is that he found that the back of his left hand also has a few centimeters long. It is not difficult to see that it is caused by sharp weapons.
Shocked, he walked briskly to the small clinic in the compound and knocked desperately on the window.
The doctor on duty quickly opened the door, and Zhang Peng immediately stepped forward and said hurriedly, "Brother Bo, save me, I have a lot of blood." The doctor on duty, Yang Bo, was one of Zhang Peng's playmates, but he was five years older than him and had just graduated from medical school this year.
Yang Bo immediately brought Zhang Peng into the medical room, and under the incandescent light, Zhang Peng's legs and hands were covered with blood, which was very scary.
"Come, sit still, I'll take care of your wounds." Yang Bo rolled up his trousers and washed them with diluted alcohol.
"Huh......" Yang Bo suddenly looked puzzled.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Peng asked nervously.
"The wound is shallow." Yang Bo said, then grabbed Zhang Peng's wrist and poured the alcohol to the back of his hand.
Under the rinse of alcohol, the wound gradually revealed, just a scratch, not very deep, not even up to the dermis.
"What's the matter, why is the wound so shallow and the blood is flowing so much?" Zhang Peng asked in a panic.
Yang Bo frowned, thought carefully for a moment, took out a blood pressure monitor, and said, "I'll measure your blood pressure." The data came out soon, Zhang Peng's blood pressure was 160 to 200, and his heart beat was 150 beats per minute.
"You have high blood pressure, so the capillaries of the epidermis bleed profusely." After Yang Bo explained, he asked, "Did you exercise vigorously, or did you encounter something exciting, or were you frightened?" ”
"It seems that there are ......," Zhang Peng replied uncertainly.
"Go back and have a good rest, and if your blood pressure comes down, you'll be fine." Yang Bo said.
Zhang Peng nodded, treated the wound, and walked out of the small clinic.
Yang Bo chased him out and said, "I'll send you back." ”
"Thank you then." Zhang Peng smiled weakly.
"Thank you, thank you, they're all brothers." Yang Bo straightened his face and said.
