I was born in the sixties, and I was born in the eighteenth century, a man who should not have existed in the world for a long time......

*********

I am a man since birth. At that time, I did not have a scientific name, and I heard that when the baby was just born, the midwife in the next village lifted the child high. He shouted loudly at the throat that could scare people to death: "Hey, it's a baby! Hey, look at these two eggs, they're so big, I've never seen such big eggs in my life! ”

This midwife surnamed Wang is the mother of the more than a dozen villages and natural groups in this Mali Mountain, and has been in the industry for decades, except for those who are good enough to go to the township health center and the county hospital, most of the babies are made from the big-bellied mother-in-law through her rough hands. As soon as these words came out, I was given the nickname of "Chen Erdan". Earlier, sanitation was not good. Children are prone to early death, so when people in the countryside name their children. Pay attention to the cheap name and poor raising, the less like a person's name, the better, so as to avoid the ears and eyes of the yin gods and wild ghosts, so as not to be jealous of the ghosts and gods, and let God accept it. Shi Ya.

54 Genzi, Luo Da, Wang Gouzi...... Listen, the villagers' vision is generally not high, and it is usually just such insight, in comparison, my name of Chen Erdan is actually quite elegant, right?

I was born different, in other families in the village, children were born crying, cheerful, festive when they listened, but I didn't say a word, a pair of dark eyes gurgling, curious to look at the world. Wang Wenpo has a lot of experience in delivering babies, but she was a little frightened when she saw my appearance, and pinched my buttocks with her nails, but she saw that this baby was stunned and didn't say anything at all, so she said again: "This baby, I'm afraid it's not here to collect debts, right?" ”

When it comes to debt collection, this is actually a story that has been passed down for a long time in Mali Mountain, telling about a family in Tianjiaba, who was ruined by his own son, and that was still a matter during the Republic of China.

The news in the mountain is closed, but the legends of mountain ghosts and wild things are countless, it can be said that the old man basking in the sun in front of every village can tell you a basket of ghost stories, that family has long been extinct, and I don't know whether it is true or false, but it has been handed down. However, according to my father, Dr. Chen Zhili, a barefoot doctor from 54 Jialing, this is a child in the mother's belly, and the breath is inhaled by the umbilical cord, and after the delivery, the umbilical cord is cut, and he has to rely on his own lungs to inhale, if he does not cry, it means that his physique is weak.

But then the people in the village said that before my mother gave birth, there was a sudden gust of wind in 54 Jialing, the wind was dark, and it was suddenly black at noon, like a dark night, and the whole world became dark, and the dog barked and the cow bleated, so frightened that the people in the village picked up the pots and bowls with the sound in the house, and knocked hard, thinking that it was the day when the dog ate it. But when I was born without saying a word, the black wind was gone, as if there was no sign at all, and later the people in the village knew about it, combined with the fact that I was born without crying, and it was rumored that this cub of Dr. Chen's family was evil.

The village also said that my mother had a serious illness in order to give birth to me, and then I don't know what it was, but there are always people who say that I am unknown, a debt collector, and the mountain people are superstitious.

Of course, these are all later I heard my father and my mother say it piecemeal, and the impression is not deep, but fortunately, when I was a child, I was very naughty, and I didn't have too much self-esteem.

I was born with a catastrophe that only my parents knew, but I remember the catastrophe I encountered when I was eight years old.

As the saying goes, the boy is seven or eight years old, the dog is very disgusted, at that time just caught up with the trend, although the impact of the mountains is not big, but the school also stopped, at that time I was only in the second grade, there was no self-motivation, idle with a few friends running all over the mountains. I said earlier that a childhood playmate, named Luo Da, his father is a hunter, and he has not collected a gun before, and his family has a shotgun with iron sand, which was left before liberation, stuffed with gunpowder and iron sand.

At that time, Luo Da's father was nicknamed the mountain dog, wrapped in a turban, tied a belt, and a gun on his back, he was simply an idol in the hearts of all children, I was very greedy, and after grinding Luo Da several times, he finally found an opportunity, stole his father's gun, and took me and 54 roots into the mountain together.

Mali Mountain is located at the junction of the three provinces of Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan, close to the Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture in western Xiangxi, has belonged to the range of 100,000 mountains, full of deep mountains and old forests, at that time many places were not developed, inaccessible, everywhere are wild things, there are more fierce beasts, it is very dangerous to say, but since it is the age of the dog, so we don't have much to worry about, the stupid three people carry a gun, two firewood knives, and they are excited to walk around.

We went out of 54 mountains, crossed Tianjiabazi, and crossed the snail forest, so we went into the deep mountains, the children were very active, as soon as they entered the mountains, they ran crazy without boundaries, it was summer at that time, there were a lot of wild fruits in the mountains, apricots, wild peaches and snake thorn fruits, all delicious, but I was more concerned about the gun on Luo Da's back, and his eyes were always staring at the iron pipe.

"Big, give me a fire?" 54 Genzi and I kept grinding him, but Luo Da just refused, his father was a hunter, and he also knew how to charge and shoot, but he was reluctant, saying that a shot must have a piece of meat, otherwise it would be a loss, and he would definitely not be able to use it for us to play.

I don't know how long it took, but we came to a bend in a mountain, and there was a stream beside it, and 54 of them pointed to a clump of grass in front of us, and said, "Oh, big, big, there's something there, and it looks like a fox."

Hearing the soft shouts of 54 roots, we lowered our bodies and squinted to see, and sure enough, in the green grass, there was a touch of white fluff, and when it moved slightly, a fist-sized fox head was suddenly revealed, white, and the eyes were dark and swarthy, like glass beads, very beautiful. The hunters in the mountains are very taboo about things like foxes, saying that they can be psychic, and they generally won't mess with it, but where do we boys understand this, Luo Da loaded iron sand and aimed at the little fox.

The children in the mountains don't look at the rustic, but there is spirituality, Luo Da was only nine years old that year, but with his father, he has beaten a lot of rabbits, and this time he may be able to beat a fox back.

Luo Da was loading the gun there, and I was watching from the side, but I don't know why, I looked at the little fox's face, pointed and small, soft and weak, always felt like a human, and when Luo Da loaded the shotgun, the little fox seemed to sense it, turned his head, and looked at us with a pair of eyes.

I looked at the little fox's eyes were dark and crystal clear, and I suddenly felt that the three of us squatting in the grass and aiming at others were really too damaging to yin morality, so I subconsciously pushed Luo Da and shouted Mo to fight, Mo to fight.

Luo Da was aiming, but I pushed him, and inexplicably pulled the trigger, and there was a bang, which scared us into peeing our pants.

54 Genzi and I heard the gunshot, and Luo Da was frightened by the missed shotgun, but when we came back to our senses, we found that the little fox had long since disappeared.

For the sake of that just now, Luo Da and I had a fight, but after the fight, we reconciled again, the crotch of the pants, all the urine, this hunt can't be beaten, and the weather is hot, so we went down to the stream to bathe.

Who knew that when I went into the water, I almost died.
