After a few more words, the men left. They seem to believe in dogs. The dog was leaving, and so did they.

Closing the door, I hurried into the house to find the woman. She's already under my bed. I still handed her clothes, and she got dressed before she crawled out.

Jiang Lichen was still quite sensible, and he stood in the courtyard until I walked out of the room with the woman, and he didn't enter the hall.

I warmed her up and listened to her talk about her. She said she had come from the northern provinces to work. But when I came over, I found out that I was deceived by my fellow countrymen, brought her here, and sold her to a family. The family was very poor, an old man in his fifties, with two sons, and three people shared her. If she didn't comply, she was beaten. When I first arrived, I ran once. If you are caught, it will only be worse.

I asked her, "How many days have you been here?" ”

"Today is the sixth day. When I was locked up at home, I heard them tell people that there was a female teacher from the village who lived in this old house. I thought, if the people in their village don't help me, you should help me. Tonight, I ran away while the three of them were drunk. At this point, she put down her chopsticks, knelt down, and cried, "Please save me." Take me out. Please. ”

Actually, when I opened the door for her, I had already decided to leave with her. I can't leave anyone here. She's worse than I am. I'm here on a state salary. If something happens here, someone will come looking for me, and someone will be held accountable. But she is different, her hometown is far away, and no one knows that she is here yet.

But it's not up to me to go out. I looked at Jiang Lichen, and he said, "I can't leave tonight, it's suspicious to go now." Tomorrow after school, you follow us. ”

I smiled at him, "I knew you were a great person." ”

The woman thanked her vigorously. After eating, she fell asleep in my bed. She must have been highly nervous these days, and now that she has finally escaped, she must be very tired.

I saved her, and that's when I felt like I should save her. But that doesn't mean I'll like her. She slept in my bed, and even though she had taken a shower, the smell was still very strong. I can't tell what it smells like, but it smells anyway. I didn't want to sleep in a bed with her in my room.

When I walked out of the room, I saw Jiang Lichen sitting on the steps of the main house, looking up at the bright moon in the sky. The moonlight shone on his face, softening his cold temperament a little.

It was hot again when it wasn't raining, and I sat down on the steps next to him, playing with my fingers, and said, "Thank you." ”

"What do you have to thank me?"

"Yes. However, people are buying women, restricting their freedom, and adding violence. You're pretty much the same. You gave me a gift and hurt me violently. Alas! Seeing that the two of us are connected by the same fate, I can't help but pity her. ”

"Listening to your tone, it's not pitiful at all."

I looked at him and smiled. I know it's not right to look at things by appearance. But who called him Jiang Lichen a male god? And putting aside the bed thing, he's been nice to me. I wasn't restricted from my freedom, I was able to make phone calls, I could go to work. "Hey, that trick you just did, um," I learned from him, "so handsome." One more time? ”

"That's yin. Release the yin qi, and when the yin qi is very heavy, the dog will avoid it. ”

"Didn't you say that when you see a ghost, a dog barks?"

"It also depends on who? If it is very powerful, the dog will definitely not be able to bark, and will just turn around and leave. ”

"So you're the best one? Also, you even demolished the Temple of Wealth. The moon is so beautiful and so clean. The night sky after the typhoon is beautiful. ”

That night, we talked for a long time, and I was tired of talking, and I fell asleep leaning on him in a daze.

In a daze, I felt Jiang Lichen kissing me on the lips. Even my half-asleep body is opening up for him. It's just that there's no more to it. He just kissed me on the lips and didn't make any further movements.

When I woke up, it was already dawn. I was late for work again, and I didn't have time to communicate with the woman. Grabbing the pumpkin pie, he ran towards the school. The elementary school in the mountain village is different from the school in the city. Teachers in the city have strict working hours, but in this mountain village elementary school, whether they go to class or not, it is completely unattended. No one will ask if you are late for a class or two. However, I still hope that I will not be late for work every day and set a good example for these first-graders.

By the time I got to school, the men who had been looking for someone last night were also at the school, and I was so surprised that the pumpkin pie was about to fall to the ground.

Quickly stabilized my mood, stuffed the cake into my mouth, and started to work on my job.

Those people quickly left the school, and I pretended to be curious to ask Teacher Liao what they were doing here. Teacher Liao said: "Last night, the daughter-in-law of the chaotic family ran away. I searched all night and couldn't find anyone. ”

"Daughter-in-law, run away. This...... Why run? ”

"Their family is poor, and no one wants to marry their daughter. Their family bought a woman. Alas, what a wickedness. ”

This mountain village does not have the habit of buying women, and it is still despised to do so. But no one denounced or helped the woman. "Then why don't you save the woman? Alarm? ”

Teacher Liao looked at me, didn't say anything, and said that he went to class.

Because it was Friday, I had to gather for a speech after school in the afternoon, and then school was dismissed. However, on the whole, the end of school is still earlier than before. In order not to suspect that I left with the woman who was looking for so many. I was happy to see people and said, I'm going home, I'll leave as soon as school is over, and take Jiang Lichen's car.

It's a bit silly, but I did it anyway. Back at the Jiang family's old house, the car was already parked at the door. I didn't pack much either, so I was in a hurry to get in the car and leave.

When I got into the car, I didn't see the woman. I was just about to ask, but I saw Jiang Lichen pointing behind me, so I didn't move and buckled my seat belt. She should have hidden in the back of the car where she put her things.

The sky began to darken, and Jiang Lichen's car film was almost completely black. When you look in the car, the light is even darker.

When our car drove to the entrance of the village, we saw the men standing in the middle of the road with hoes and forks last night to stop the car. I looked at Jiang Lichen a little nervously. With a cold face without a single expression, he stopped the car and lowered the window.

The people outside looked in the car and said, "Brother Jiang, go out." ”

"Send Teacher Silver home." There was not a single ebb and flow in what he said. The man leaned on the window and looked in for a few seconds before stepping back, waving his hand and letting us leave.

"How can they ......" I really didn't expect that they would stop cars on the side of the road and set up cards! I've always thought that the only people who can stop cars and check like this are the police! Coming to this mountain village has refreshed my cognition again and again.

After the car drove far away, Jiang Lichen looked at the people on the side of the road from the rearview mirror and said, "It's not uncommon to set up a card to stop the car. A few years ago, the village was offered a project to mine lime from the mountains over there. However, the villagers set up cards on the side of the road, and a car would be charged 50 yuan, and if they did not give it, they would move stones to block the road, and even smash cars and beat people. Some police and people from the government came down to deal with it, and they even used hoes to hoe the wheels of the township chief's car, and the police car was also blocked by big rocks. Hum! They are poor, and they have cut off their own financial means. ”

I listened to my jaw dropping to the ground.

Along the way, there were indeed many landslides, but no one cleaned them up, and the car turned on its headlights and slowly pressed over the mud. By the time we got to the outskirts of the city, it was already past nine o'clock. Much later than expected.

The woman crawled out from behind, and I asked her if she wanted to call the police, and she said, "No, call the police, what will I do in the future?" I, I don't have any money. Good Samaritan, you are good people to the end, give me 2,000 yuan, let me buy a ticket home. ”

"Two thousand? By plane? I was amazed, and at the same time I felt disgusted.

"I, I don't have an ID card, I'm going to go back by car. It may take three or four days before I get home. ”

I was about to say something, but a wad of money passed through my ear and was handed to her. As soon as I turned around, Jiang Lichen was standing behind me, very close.

The woman took the money, said thank you, and left. I opened my mouth and didn't know how to express my current psychology. He pulled me into the car, and I asked, "It's so refreshing, it can't be a dark coin." ”
