Chapter 4 The Town

At the bottom of the ravine, a cold wind blew, and Long San opened his eyes in a daze. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info There was a full moon overhead, and by the light of the moon he saw himself lying on a large pile of dead people. Long San thought to himself, where am I? Am I in the Netherworld, and there are dead people all around. He could feel the cold, smell the stench of the corpses around him, and see maggots crawling on the corpses next to him.

He knew that he was not dead, and that there was no movement except for him, and that there were all the names of the villages that had been exhausted and beaten to death in the mines. Look at the bottom of your body, there are already mountains of dead people. Fortunately, it was the pile of corpses like a hill at the bottom of the ravine that supported him, or he would have fallen to his death.

People have only one belief at this time, and that is to live. At this time, Long San still has a belief, that is, to avenge his mother.

The wind at the bottom of this ravine was so cold that he couldn't stop shivering from the cold. Many of the corpses here have swelled and softened, and some of them are deeply decomposed, revealing white bones. He found the undecomposed corpse next to him, turned it over, stripped off his clothes, and covered himself. There was a foul smell in this corpse pile, but at this time, Long San couldn't care about so much, so he took off two pieces of clothes and pants and put them on.

He no longer had the strength to stand up, so he could only crawl under the pile of corpses little by little. The top of the pile of corpses was fine, and the further down the corpse was, the more decomposing the corpse became. Ryuzo could only stubbornly crawl over a deeply decomposed corpse, grab the rotten hand, kick the head, and crawl forward with all his might.

Suddenly, he saw a very familiar corpse, and he crawled over and turned the corpse's face over. It's really him, the mountain monkey.

Ryuzo didn't expect that his partner, who was playing with him a few days ago, was now a cold, stinking corpse. He knelt on the pile of corpses, he wanted to cry, but before he could cry, his eyes were already blackened for a while, and he was about to faint.

Long San firmly believed at this time, that is, I want to live, and I want to avenge my mother and the people in the village.

He rolled down the pile and heard the sound of running water at the bottom of the ravine. He followed the sound and climbed until he reached the brook, where he took two sips of the water and fainted in a daze.

He woke up at noon the next day, and the first thing he saw was that a fat frog was lying not far from him. He picked up a small branch next to him and slowly reached out to the frog, dangling it in front of its eyes. The mountain frog bit the branch and didn't open its mouth.

Long Sanyi grabbed the mountain frog and threw it to the ground, knocking it to death. He hadn't eaten for four days, and he didn't bother to roast the frog over a fire, so he tore its skin with his mouth, bit it on the back, tore off a piece of raw meat, and swallowed it without much chewing.

Ryuzo has also been hungry for the past few days, and now he finally has food to fill his empty stomach. After eating a mountain frog, he felt much better. I found a branch, used it as a crutch, propped myself up, and walked down the stream.

He was weak, so he walked around and rested, and finally came out of the ravine at night. It seems to be a small village in front of it, and there are only a dozen families in front of it, and the village is dark at this time. He wanted to find a family, and it would be good to have something to eat.

He carried the branches into the village, and the first door of the courtyard was open, and there was no light in it. He walked into the first courtyard door, which was empty, and as he walked inside, he saw the bodies of a middle-aged woman and an elderly woman lying on the ground. It seems that this village has also been plagued by little devils.

Ryuzo found some remnants of the sticks in the rice bowl and made a fire on the stove to make porridge. After the porridge was boiled, a bowl was served, and before the porridge was cold, I drank it in a big gulp. In the past few days, he has finally had a serious meal.

When he had eaten his fill, he went to the inner room and lay down on the kang, covered with the quilt scattered on the kang, and fell asleep. The experience of the past few days has made him not mind sleeping in the same room with two corpses.

Long San woke up at noon the next day, and just felt soreness and pain all over his body. I had been running for my life yesterday, and I didn't feel anything, but now that I have settled down, I feel the pain in my body. He took off his clothes, and saw that his body was covered in blood from the whip, and there was a large bruise on his chest, which must have been thrown into a ravine and hit on a pile of dead people. Smell the stench of dead people all over your body.

Suffering from the pain, he went down to the ground and rummaged through the house to find two clothes he could wear. I lit a fire to make water, boiled a large pot of water, mixed it with cold water, took a good bath, and washed away the smell of my body.

After taking a shower and changing his clothes, he made a round around the village. There were more than a dozen families in this village, and the elderly, women, and children were all killed, as well as the bodies of one or two young adults, who may have been killed by resistance at that time. There was not much food left in the village, bags of grain were snatched, but some remained in some rice jars. However, to Ryuzo's surprise, he found a chicken in a yard, which may have been lost at that time.

Ryuzo found a house without a corpse to live in, he recuperated in this abandoned village for a few days, and the injuries on his body gradually improved, and the rest of the food was almost eaten. He didn't want to stay here, so he might as well go out of the mountain.

He avoided the main road and walked along the side road out of the mountain, sometimes avoiding the Japanese convoy and army. After a few days, I saw several villages that had been wiped out by the Japanese. On this day, he finally saw a town in front of him, Long San had never been out of the village in his life, and he heard that there were towns such as Yongping Town and Anping Town outside, and he didn't know which one was.

He did not rush into the town, but looked into the town from the hill. The town is quite large, with three streets across it, and there are about 200 households living in it. There are three mouths to the east, west and south of the town, and there are mountains to the north. These entrances and exits were guarded by Japanese soldiers and the Imperial Army.

He made some branches on the mountain, tied them into bundles, and put them on his shoulders. In the evening, he disguised himself as a townsman who had returned from chopping wood, and blended into the town.

When I entered the town, it was getting late, and the doors of the houses had already been closed. He thought to himself, where am I going to go at night? Don't let the Japanese catch me and send me back to the mine.

Thinking about it, a stumbling Imperial Allied Army came over and grabbed Long San by the neck. Long Sanxin can't say it well, is it possible that he is recognized by others and is not from this town?

The Emperor Xiejun grabbed Long San and shouted at Long San: "Pillar, why don't you call me when you kid sees me?"

Ryuzo was almost stunned by the smell of wine in his mouthful, it seems that he has drunk too much and recognized the wrong person. He immediately followed the words of the Imperial Association Army and said, "Uncle, I didn't recognize you just now. ā€

"You are a coward, why are you called uncle? called master, Lao Tzu is a generation older than your father, why can't you always remember a little rabbit cub. The Imperial Cooperative Army stumbled and patted Long San's head and said.

"Master, I remember. Ryuzo lowered his head and covered his face and said to him.

"Let's go! Remember to call me Ye in the future. The Imperial Concordant stumbled forward again.

When the Imperial Alliance Army walked out for a distance, Long San scolded him fiercely behind his back: "Dog traitor!"

Long San looked at the back of the Imperial Allied Army, and thought to himself that it seemed that he had been drinking a lot. I might as well go to his house tonight and steal some food or something, he's not a good guy anyway.

He followed the Imperial Allies all the way behind him, and watched him enter a small courtyard. Ryuzo has been catsizing in the alley next to him, and sometimes there are Japanese soldiers patrolling the streets at night.

After midnight, Long San climbed down the wall and into the small courtyard. I found the door by the moonlight, gently pushed it open, and entered the house in the dark.

He cautiously leaned forward with his foot, and there was something in front of him. On the trip, it is soft like a person. He leaned down and carefully touched it with his hand, it was really human. He immediately retracted his hand, and said to himself, could it be that he had drunk too much, and he was drunk here? Why didn't he even make a sound of gasping?

He gave him a gentle push, but the man didn't respond, and he pushed again, but there was still no response. He touched the man's back, and it was wet, and the whole back was wet. Touching upwards, he touched a hard object, touched it carefully, a knife.

This frightened him so much that he shrank back and fell to the ground. Just as he was about to scream, a pair of hands stretched out in the darkness behind him and covered his mouth at once.
