There were more than a dozen of us in our group, in addition to our group and our respective brothers and sisters, there were also Zeng Xiangkun brothers and sisters and Meng Xiaolan. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

My sister's junior high school has a heavier task than ours, and the boys have to pay 20 pounds, and the girls also have to pay 15 pounds. The little girls can't climb trees, and it's a bit difficult for them to pick fir trees, so they ganged up with us. Except for Meng Xiaolan, the others are their own sisters, of course there is nothing to say, Meng Xiaolan is a good friend of her sister, and more importantly, she is the youngest daughter of Nan's father, and she is my aunt according to her generation, I have to help her no matter what.

There are more than a dozen of us together, and there is no one who is not noisy. In the courtyards of the six or seven teams on both sides of the reservoir, many old people and little butts who had not worked came out, stretched their necks and looked at our group. Huang Shiren was a little proud, deliberately walking in front with his head held high, Hu Hansan proposed to do a big chorus, he immediately applauded, and proposed:

"Then sing 'I'm a soldier'."

Zhou Papi grinned and said, "In addition to singing this song, which one else will you sing?"

Everyone laughs, Huang Shiren can't sing all the songs, not out of tune, even if he can't remember the lyrics. He laughed dryly, his face did not change, and his heart did not beat. His dream was to grow up and become a soldier. He ignored everyone's ridicule, and strode to himself and roared:

I'm a soldier,

From the common people

defeated the Japanese invaders,

Eliminated Chiang's bandit army......

Everyone ignored him, and several girls walked behind and snickered. Hu Hansan said to me, "Just sing a song "We Walk on the Road", okay? ”

I smiled and said, "Then sing 'Let's Walk on the Road'." ”

As we lined up on the path, Hu Hansan made a sound, and the song echoed on both sides of the reservoir:

"We walk on the main road,

Spirited and high-spirited,

Chairman Mao led the revolutionary ranks,

Cutting through the thorns and running forward

Move forward

Move forward

The momentum of the revolution is unstoppable,

Move forward

Move forward

In the direction of victory!

……

Turn the small hill and you will arrive at the backwater bay. The house is a small courtyard, the main house is a two-horizontal three-room low and dilapidated mud-walled tile house, there is a row of thatched huts on the left and right, one side is the kitchen house, and the other side is the pigpen thatched toilet. Despite the remoteness, the mud walls are painted with white plaster with the slogan "Afforestation, Greening the Motherland".

We could have climbed up Maple Hill directly from the ridge on the side of her house, but to satisfy our curiosity, we went around in front of her house and climbed up Maple Hill from the other side.

More than a dozen girls were together, and the singing and laughter spread far and wide. The full girl came out and stood by the door. She wore big braids and a colored lankhaki blouse, which was a little small, and sure enough, her lower abdomen was slightly convex, and her breasts were a little stiff. Seeing that it was a group of small girls, a smile flashed on her pale face, and she watched with envy as we walked back from her yard one by one.

I'd love to meet her blind mother, but she's not outside. Although it is a village, they belong to different production teams, and their family is on the other side of the reservoir, so no one will come here if they have nothing to do, not to mention that her mother rarely goes out because she can't see, and even if she comes here, she rarely sees her. In my memory, the most profound thing is that every year in July and August, when the pumpkin is ripe, on the road next to the fifth team, I can faintly hear her desolate cry of "cub meat come back to eat pumpkin" on the other side.

I walked in the middle of the line, and when I was about to reach the side of the house, Liao Guangming walked out of the house, glanced at the group, and said to me, "Xianghong, where are you going?" ”

"Go to Maple Hill and pick fir trees." I replied.

Liao Guangming walked up to me and said to me in his ear: "The old lady asked you to go to the house for a while, saying that she has something to say to you." ”

"Oh?" I was quite surprised, and said to Zhou Papi, who was walking behind me, "You go first, and I'll come later." ”

As he spoke, he put down the basket and followed Liao Guangming into the house.

When Liao Guangming led me in, Chen Zhuxiu, the fairy mother-in-law, stood up and groped her way out.

The autumn sun was shining outside, but the inside was a little dark. Chen Zhuxiu was slightly hunched back, her gray hair was tied in a bun on her head, her face was full of wrinkles and purse folds, and her face was pale, making her look far more than sixty years old. At this time, her eyes were wide open, gray and dull.

I took two steps forward and called "Chen Xiaoyu".

I don't know what to call her. There are only a few families in the village with the surname Tan, and there is no even a trivial relationship with our Meng family, she is so old, I think she is about the same age as my grandmother, and it is not wrong to call her a good voice.

After hearing this, Chen Xiaoyu waved his hand again and again and said: "Don't call it that, you are a distinguished guest, and I am a high climber in the discussion of peers, don't you call me Xiaoyu to kill me?" Come on, come and sit down. Oh, bright, you go out, don't let people in, I'm going to say a few words to Xianghong. ”

Liao Guangming looked at me in surprise, agreed to exit the back room, and took the wooden door with him.

Although I was also surprised, I still walked a few steps, moved a square stool and sat down beside her, and whispered to her, "You are so old, why can't I call you a girl?" I'm going to turn 12 years old, and you say I'm a distinguished guest, I really don't understand, can you tell me? ”

She paused, looked ahead blindly, and said, "Aren't you wondering how I became a fairy lady all of a sudden?" ”

I nodded, realizing that she couldn't see, and said, "Yes." I'm really curious. ”

"Actually, I'm very curious, I hanged myself and didn't die, I woke up groggy for many days, and on the night of my sister's marriage, I drank some wine, and suddenly that's it. Sometimes it's someone else, oh no, it's someone who is dead talking through my mouth, sometimes it's my own feelings, no, I can't tell what is going on, as if someone told me in my heart. Just now, as soon as you arrived in my yard, a light seemed to turn on in my head, and I knew who you were.

"Your name is Meng Xianghong, and you got two treasures in the cave. Meng Qingnan butcher led you into the door, your real master is Guixin grain and oil craftsman, but it is the senior master in the cave who has made you. You will be a prodigy with a bright future ahead of you......

"You don't have to ask, don't interrupt, listen to me first. I tell you, I only know the past, and there are some things that cannot be said, you should understand that the secret of heaven must not be revealed, otherwise it will not be beneficial to others and yourself, I will say what I can say, as for the future, I don't know, you ask in vain.

"I asked the light to call you in just to tell you that there is a powerful mandrill hidden in our village, and it seems that it wanted to attack you last year. Yang Shigong can only drive it away, but can not subdue or get rid of it, recently it has been making waves in the village, this has been happening more and more related to it, if it can not be subdued, Xinghua Village will have no peace, and there will be many murderous things.

You have a treasure in you, and you are the only one who can restrain it. You've got to find a way to get rid of it and give Xinghua Village a peaceful ......."

She said so much in one breath, and I was truly taken aback. Even Daddy Gui and the things in the cave she knew, and it seemed that what she said was not false. I remember that last year, Master Yang did say that it was the mandrill that pestered me. I was amazed at her that I was the only one who could restrain it.

Although I got the phantom soul dew and Tianye incense of the unknown predecessors in the cave, I have made great progress in all aspects recently, and the boxing stick taught by Uncle Liang is basically a one-time experience, and I have made great progress in terms of magic when I practice it, but after all, I have never practiced it, and I have no bottom in my heart. As for what the weasel said in the dream that he could distinguish between gods and demons and ghosts, I didn't feel it at all. It's just that I could vaguely see the little snake on Zeng Mengchun's body that day, and the situation when he saw me, as well as what the drunkard said, it seems that there is another thing, I thought about it and said:

"Chen Xiaoyu, I'm still young, I don't know much, and I don't know what to do. And how can you deal with it? Since you know that it is a mandrill, can't you get rid of it? ”

Chen Zhuxiu said solemnly: "I know what you think. Let's be honest, I only know some things that others don't know about the past, and I only feel and speculate about the future, and I don't have the skills or magic myself, I can only give advice to others, so I can only rely on you to ...... this matter."

"But I don't have anything to do now? How can you get rid of the monsters? ”

"Huh! You are hungry with cold food! I have a supernatural ability and I don't know it. But this is not your fault, and there is no need to worry, the drop stone can be worn, and the work will be natural. You are just missing a guide now, just like the water in the stream is temporarily blocked by the mud bank, trickling down, once the flash flood breaks out and the mud bank collapses, the surging momentum is unstoppable. What you're missing now is a flash flood like this......"

I see? For a moment, I had a kind of enlightenment......
