Chapter Ninety-Eight: Broken Arm

As the slogan was shouted, a group of men and women wearing grass-green military uniforms, grass-green military hats, wide belts, and red armbands on one arm rushed in. As soon as they entered, they rushed to the rooms without saying hello.

The pillar was pulling the meal while looking at the man and woman who remained in the front hall. I saw that they smashed several pots and pans and three taels of vases.

"What is this doing?" asked the pillar, tugging at the corner of his mother's coat.

"Don't speak!" the woman pulled over the pillar and retreated to the wall. Her hand on the boy's shoulder was unusually strong, as if to remind the pillar that there was a pact between the two of them to "not speak".

Bedding, clothes, a few calligraphy and paintings, and a few books were thrown out of the rooms.

Zhuzi raised his eyes and looked at his mother, only to see that the woman who had always had a fiery temper was now looted by a group of strangers, but she just bit her lower lip tightly and did not get angry.

It's so weird!

There was a young man who seemed to be the leader of the group, and he struck a match, the calligraphy, paintings, and books...... And it burned. Black smoke soared into the sky.

"Mother," the pillar remembered the man, and then pulled the corner of the woman's clothes, and couldn't help but cry, "Father, he said, the Buddha statue ......"

Only a few words were spoken, and the pillar's mouth was covered by the woman. The force was so hard that the boy was almost breathless.

There was a girl with two braids who happened to turn around, and she looked at the boy whose mouth was covered, and she was suspicious.

"Do you have anything to say, little comrade?" the young woman lowered the brim of her hat and walked over, her voice cold.

The mother was startled and let go of the hand that was covering the pillar's mouth. But the pillar could feel that behind him, his mother was trembling.

"Say it boldly, little comrade," the young woman said, glancing at her mother, "all feudal and counter-revolutionary forces are enemies. It is incumbent upon each of us to defeat the enemy!"

Pillar glanced back at his mother and shook his head, "I'm just hungry." ”

"Down with all the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods!" the leading young man shouted again.

"Down with all the ghosts, snakes, and gods!" the crowd repeated, their emotions soaring.

"Fight the feudal reactionary forces to the end!"

"Fight the feudal reactionary forces to the end!"

The young men and women shouted as they walked out of the pillar's house and walked towards the next house. Seeing this, the young woman who interrogated the pillar glanced at the pillar and the woman, and followed away.

"You kid, didn't I tell you not to talk?" the woman hit the back of the pillar on the head, and her voice was serious, "Go find your father, they are in the cave in the back mountain, remember, take the path, don't be discovered by those people!"

The pillar nodded.

"Tell your dad that the people with the red armbands are here. Let him hide the Buddha statue and come back quickly, don't make trouble!"

The pillar hummed and ran out. He heard the roar of a man next door, which seemed to be Wang Mazi's scream. He lay down in the crack of the door and looked in, at this time Wang Mazi was fluttering on the ground, and several young men and women were beating around him.

"Ahhh

The pillar was covered in a cold sweat, he covered his mouth, and tiptoed until he was far away, then he spread his feet and ran quickly.

As for the Buddha statues, the pillars did not like it very much. He felt that the Buddha statue with a broken arm was too evil, how could the Buddha with compassion have such a strange smile?

Why can't those adults see it? What is revealed in those eyes is not the transcendent Buddha nature, but the ...... Devil!

The pillar was out of breath, and he saw an ox cart parked next to the cave in the mountain behind him. There were also a few men who were outside watching the wind.

"Pillar, why are you here?" the tall and thin man grabbed the pillar's body, "Did your mother tell you to inform us?"

The pillar nodded.

"Those people came early, it's not good!" said the tall and thin man, and walked straight into the cave. The pillars followed.

There is a cave in the cave, and the Buddha statue is in the center of the cave. There was a glimmer of sky overhead, and there were a few rocks that were not tightly sealed, allowing the light of the setting sun to penetrate a little.

The light shone on the golden Buddha statue, and the pillar felt that the smile on Rulai's face was even more eerie. The corners of its mouth curled a little more, and its eyes narrowed.

Why hasn't anyone noticed the change in it?

"Dad. The pillar hid behind the burly man in fear.

"Brother Dong, those people have arrived. The tall and thin man leaned over the man and whispered. Before the man could react anything, a group of young people had already poured into the cave with the guy.

"Okay, you people, secretly hiding the Buddha statue here, and against us, you are the feudal reactionary forces and the enemy!" The young man who led the team was full of anger and his voice was excited, "The great leader once said that if you don't fight reactionary things, he won't fall." Comrades, copy guys, on!"

With the young man's order, several people have been surrounded. The man begged bitterly, "A few comrades, it's good, we Nanling is really indispensable to this Buddha statue!"

"Do you see it? This is the typical face of the capitalist roaders, you deal with these people, I will deal with this Buddha statue!"

As soon as the words fell, dozens of iron rods were swung down. The men were in pain and rolled on the ground.

A young woman pulls out a pillar in the confusion. The pillar trembled with fear, and he saw his father's blood splatter, spilling on the Buddha's mouth.

In a daze, the pillar seemed to see, and the Buddha statue seemed to blink its eyes. Then, the smile was even greater.

The young man in the team leader waved the stick in his hand and knocked it a few times, "Damn, it's still pure gold." In this, it's all squeezing the blood and sweat of the working people, see if I don't smash you!"

After a long, long time, the men who had been beaten were constantly complaining, and some of them were bleeding and motionless.

In order to smash the Buddha statue, the team leader also changed several tools. In the end, with all his efforts, he only broke one of Rulai's hands.

"This broken thing is too hard, comrades, let's transport it back first, and then continue to destroy it tomorrow!"

"Good!" Several people worked together to carry the Buddha statue onto the ox cart.

Before leaving, the young man in the team leader spat at the few people who were lying on the ground whimpering.

"Brother Dong, Brother Dong!" the tall thin man shook the burly man's body.

No response.

The pillar stood there dumbfounded, looking at his motionless father. A man came up and covered his eyes.

It's dark.

The next day, my mother cried so hard that she rolled her eyes and fainted.

Several people looked at their father's corpse covered with white silk and wept.

The pillar is just guilty.

"Grandpa, is the other hand of the Buddha statue broken like this?" After Yang Wanwan listened, she was silent for a while and asked, "But why don't those people continue to destroy the Buddha statue?"

The old man paused, "Because the Buddha statue is evil, the next day, the young man who cut off the right hand of the Buddha statue ran on the path screaming wildly in the early morning. When I poked my head out, I realized that the place where he passed was covered in blood. The man who controlled him also exclaimed. It turned out that the sleeve on the young man's right was empty, and it had become a broken arm. He was pinned to the ground and screamed that it was the Buddha statue that had sneaked into his place after nightfall, brandished his sword, and cut off his arm. After that, the group took the young man to the hospital in the town to see a doctor, and never returned to Nanling. ”

"In this way, it is indeed quite evil...... Yang Wanwan thought for a while and asked, "It was your father who was killed?"

The old man snorted and covered his face with a fan, "Poor my father, if I had been careful, they wouldn't have followed him to that cave, and my father wouldn't have ......."

Yang Wanwan packed up her things and stood up, "Regarding this point, I found several suspicious points in your narrative. Grandpa, I have another guess, you are lying. ”
