The land lord is not a great god, so the land temple is rarely big, all very small, most of them are simple and simple style, or under the tree, or on the side of the road, more than two stones as the wall, one is the top, simply built into a 'Lei' type, is for the temple.

This small temple is like this, lonely is located next to a small road, more than half a person's high bluestone erects the temple wall, a piece of bluestone covers the top, and there are couplets written on both sides: there is a temple without monks to sweep the floor, and the incense is more candles and less moon lights.

On the third pole of the day, a young man in dirty clothes and old clothes walked on the path, looking simple and uncharacteristic, carrying two baskets of tattered on his shoulders, passing in front of the small land temple without delay, and inadvertently turned his head to look at the small temple on the side of the road, and passed without stopping.

......

In a dense wood, there were more than a dozen people sitting or lying down, and it was strange that these people were separated by dozens of meters and divided into two groups of rest, six on one side and a dozen on the other.

These six are Hu Yi, Su Qing, Luo Fugui, Xiao Hongying, Wu Shishi and Li Xiang.

It was a calm morning, with the occasional wind blowing through the leaves overhead, making a pleasant rustling sound. If you prick up your ears and listen carefully, you can sometimes hear a whining sound, which is very subtle and a little muffled, as if it is gagged.

The little red tassel was lying on all fours in the grass, with a straw pole in her mouth, blinking her big eyes, looking at the blue sky above the leaves. Luo Fugui was lying under the tree not far from her, and muttered in a low voice: "Grandma, I'm really convinced." On the way, they tossed for half a night, and they are still so energetic, and their addiction is too great to stand ......it!

Xiao Hongying didn't react to this, so Luo Fugui couldn't help but lean towards her: "Heartless and immoral thing, are you pretending not to hear, or are you really not bothered?"

Xiao Hongying still didn't react, Luo Fugui grabbed a handful of grass in his hand and threw it on the little girl: "I'll let you pretend again!"

"Oh, I hate it!" the little girl finally sat up, and while pulling out two lumps of rags from both ears and eyes, she asked with a frowning little eyebrow, "Annoying mule! What did you just say?"

Looking at the two pieces of cloth, Luo Fugui's eyelids drooped: "I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything, I really have you, now I not only obey them, but even you." ”

On the other side not far away, Su Qing, who was sitting under the tree, had a very bad face. In the middle of the night last night, Hu Yi led Ma Liang and Liu Jianqiang to catch a stunned devil and handed it over to Shi Cheng's team, and at the same time gave them a ridiculous order: this devil must live. Su Qing immediately understood that Hu Yi was blatantly instigating them to abuse the prisoners to vent their anger, which was too inhumane. raised objections on the spot, but no one responded, and at the same time, Hu Yi, a despicable guy, threatened the ninth platoon to terminate the investigation mission, so that Su Qing remained silent.

So, Shi Cheng and the others made a simple stretcher on the spot, tied up the devil tightly, and carried it on the road happily. Fists, blades, sharpened branches, stones, all kinds of tools, all kinds of tricks, all kinds of tricks, all the way, you sing and I appear, the stretcher takes turns, once you find that there is a lot of blood, quickly sprinkle a salt, use a bandage to prick him, serve thoughtfully, resolutely carry out the platoon commander's order, let him live, live well.

Su Qing was about to collapse, and the reason that really made her keep her silent attitude was actually the corpses of the people in Qingshan Village, but as a political worker, she had to show her attitude at that time, this was the principle. Helplessly, the faint moaning of being abused was too torturous, and I drove half a night and listened to it for half a night, but I didn't expect it to continue until now. Hatred, conscience, humanity, principles, form a painful war in the mind.

"That's enough!" Su Qing raised his head and looked at Hu Yi coldly: "This must be ended!

Hu Yi sat under another tree not far away, and kept calmly looking at the bright fields outside the woods: "It's not good to kill prisoners, I don't want to violate discipline." My thoughts are...... Strive to carry him back to the regiment and receive another meritorious service award. ”

"What's the difference between you and the devils? They are beasts, do you want to be beasts too?"

"Even if we don't become beasts, they won't treat us as human beings, so why should I mind if I'm a beast or not?

"You-"

Su Qing couldn't speak, and he didn't want to talk to Hu Yi anymore, so he stood up abruptly and walked to a group of positions dozens of meters away.

......

Liu Jianqiang hated this feeling very much, hated the slimy, hated the color of the blood, but he couldn't help but want to hate it again, to feel the slimy blood color again, perhaps, to experience the indescribable excitement and excitement afterwards.

At this moment, Shi Cheng was not there, and the nine people in the first class gathered around the stretcher, staring at Liu Jianqiang who was squatting on the side of the stretcher one by one, grinning and speechless......

The bayonet in his hand was not sharp enough, and he was cut and torn, Liu Jianqiang carefully took out a piece of blood sticky skin the size of a matchbox and placed it at his feet, this is the seventh, far worse than the number of corpses.

Raised his arm to wipe the sweat from his forehead, grabbed the bayonet again, and was about to continue the next knife along the wound, when a cold voice came from behind: "Liu-Jian-Qiang-"

Hearing this, his hands trembled, and he almost cut his fingers, so he quickly wiped the bayonet on the devil and stood up awkwardly.

"Didn't you say that you would go to the sentry with Ma Liang?" asked Su Qing as he approached.

Liu Jianqiang carried the bayonet, stepped on a few pieces of bloody skin with his foot, and drooped his head without speaking.

Su Qing glanced at the devil on the stretcher, hurriedly raised his gaze, tried not to look at it anymore, forcibly suppressed the churning in his throat, and said sharply: "End this now!" Then he turned around and walked away, disappearing among the leaves.

......

Shi Cheng came back, casually unloaded the two broken baskets on his shoulders, and said to Su Qing, who hurried over: "I've seen it, the statue of the god in the Land Temple has been smashed. ”

Su Qing sighed deeply and sat down against the tree beside him.

"What does this mean?" Hu Yi asked her.

"Meaning...... The condition is critical, and this site was used for the last time. Something happened in town. ”

Hu Yi thought about it for a while and said, "First of all, the ninth row will never enter the city. You can't go into the city. ”

Su Qing knew what Hu Yi was worried about, although she was anxious to know the answer, but she didn't have the idea of venturing into the city, and said to Hu Yi after being silent for a while: "There is no need to enter the city, we will go to another place next, maybe it will be clear as soon as it happens." ”

"Where?"

"Xiaojiao Village. ”

......

Xiaojiao Village, in the northeast of Meixian County, not far from the county seat, is an ordinary village in the plain. Speaking of this Xiaojiao Village, Class 9 once patronized, when I first picked up Dr. Zhou, the junction point was the T-junction to the east, the first village is, Class 9 and Zhou Wanping's first meeting was on the road outside the east end of the village.

Su Qing finally had to come to Xiaojiao Village, because this village was a waiting place to be contacted in case of special circumstances. The information collected was sent out of the county town by a special traffic officer to the land temple, and then the traffic officer who had died was taken out and sent back to the independent regiment. The members of the organization in the city did not know the specific location of the Independent Regiment, and once this line of communication was broken, or if there was a special situation, the city would send someone to wait in Xiaojiao Village, and sooner or later the Independent Regiment would send someone here to restore contact with the city. Of course, this particular waiting place is only known to a very few of the most important people, and it will not be activated until the critical time.

That medicinal herb devil died, and after more than nine hours of special care, if it weren't for Su Qing's strong voice, maybe it would have been longer. The final method of execution was to cut off the head, bury the head deep in the mud pit in the woods, and discard the corpses at the edge of the woods. Shi Cheng and they did this to let this devil die is also a headless ghost, so that he can't even see hell, maybe his body will eventually be found, and then sent back to the devil's hometown, but his dog head must be deeply rotted in this thick soil, forever.

Nine rows in one shift, ready to use. Although there is only one devil's dog life, it is not able to comfort the souls of hundreds of innocent lives in the heavens, at least the brothers in the group have released their anger and sadness, become calm, and will not faint at the critical moment. This is a major event involving the entire nine rows, Hu Yi didn't dare to take it lightly and say a few nonsense words to appease the matter, and he had to treat it as a disease, so he had 'medicine'.

This is an enemy-occupied area, near the county seat, under the nose of the devil, and he does not dare to swagger. He had been resting in the woods until it was dark, and the ninth platoon set off to Xiaojiao Village.

......

The crescent moon hangs high, and the hazy Xiaojiao Village is silent in the faint moonlight. There seems to be smoke, there seems to be fog, there seems to be haze, and it is faintly swirling. It seems like...... The last time I came here, this village was also this virtue.

A dexterous figure hurriedly ran under the moon, and finally stopped in front of a tall soldier: "Brother, there is no abnormality in the periphery." ”

"Shi Cheng, take your people into the village from the south, go steadily, don't panic, we will cross in the middle of the village once." ”

"Understood. ”

Ten figures raised their guns and ran into the open field under the moonlight, heading south of the village.

"The machine gun is in the center, and the runny nose is behind the hall. ”

The tall soldier unloaded the rifle hanging from his shoulder, put it horizontally in his hand, loaded it with a clatter, and took a big stride along the path to the west entrance of the village. The other seven figures consciously found the order, and unhurriedly followed the figures of the soldiers in the lead, and walked into a slip, accompanied by a few bolts of gunfire, and walked towards Xiaojiao Village under the moonlight......
