"Uncle You." The sudden sound startled me, and I turned around to find that it was Zhang Ran, whose face was pale.

When did she wake up? How much did she hear?

Her eyes flickered, and her voice was unusually calm: "That's Lin Cheng." ”

I didn't speak, she said to herself: "That's Lin Cheng." He's always sleepwalking, and I've seen him walk around the hallway in the middle of the night, muttering something, "You're good, I don't hurt you or anything, it's scary." ”

"Uncle You, don't take what he said to heart, I know, he likes to talk nonsense the most......" Zhang Ran said very quickly, as if he kept spitting out the skin of melon seeds, "Thank you for bringing me back, I have to go, my cat is still waiting for me to feed it." Zhang Ran said to himself, his eyes dodged, and his expression was abnormal.

I looked at her deeply.

She lowered her head, got up from the bed, and hurriedly walked out: "Xiaomi is hungry, I have to go back quickly." "She was walking so fast that by the time I could tell, she was already at the door.

"Zhang Ran!" I called her, and she seemed to be startled, shaking violently, "Uncle You...... Anything else? She didn't look back.

I frowned, thinking that she might have been a little sensitive by this series of events, so I picked up the shoes on the ground as gently as I could, and handed them to her slowly, for fear of irritating her again.

"You forgot your shoes."

Her shoulders loosened, she took her shoes, turned her head, and smiled a little stiffly, "Thank you, thank you." Then he hurriedly left, holding his shoes in both hands.

I had the heart to remind her, but seeing her hurried figure, I swallowed the words again.

I didn't debunk her lies because I knew she didn't have a cat. Zhang Ran turned back into Zhang Ran, without the slightest shadow of Zheng Yingying, I thought about the wounds on her body and the insects crawling out, it seemed to be a little clear.

Zhang Xiaoming came at a fixed time again. This time he was a little different, he seemed to be in a very low mood, not like usual, but sat quietly on my pony, touched his pocket, and then opened his mouth: "Uncle You, give me a cigarette." ”

I'm not too happy, I've been giving out more cigarettes lately than I've smoked myself.

But seeing his expression, he could only sigh helplessly and hand him one.

"Uncle You, I know something I want to know but shouldn't know, how long can I live?"

"Don't talk nonsense, you're still young."

"Hehe......" He sneered, as if choked on the smoke: "Uncle You, sometimes I really envy you, you are alone, there is no worry and no trouble." ”

He didn't seem to expect my reaction, and took another puff of his cigarette and spat it into the sky, the smoke surrounding him, and for a moment he couldn't see his face.

"My mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to me, and my father went out to run freight in order to send me to school in the county town. I was only 5 years old, but I still remember it as a blue, slightly worn out truck covered in rust. I longed for it but hated it, it was as tall as the two of me, it came to mean that Daddy was back, and when it was gone, it meant that Daddy didn't know when he would come back. I just went to different neighbors' houses, and they didn't make me hungry, but no one cared about me.

Once my father received a big order, and he told me that when he came back, he would not leave, rent a piece of land, and farm and raise pigs. I believed, but ......"

Speaking of this, Zhang Xiaoming stopped, his eyes red.

I didn't continue to ask, just as a quiet listener. The ending of this story is not difficult to guess, but two words reveal a terrible and cruel reality.

I went into the house and wanted to make him a cup of tea.

As soon as I took out the tea caddy, I heard the sound of an argument outside.

I hurried out of the hut, but saw Zhang Xiaoming staring at Wan Zixuan and Zhang Ran viciously with red eyes, and Wan Zixuan and Zhang Ran held hands with an intimate expression.

"Hey...... Hahaha...... Hey, hey, hey......" Li Chang stood in the grass not far away, watching them arguing and laughing.

"Zhang Xiaoming, what kind of tantrum are you experiencing? Yingying is gone, no one feels uncomfortable......" Zhang Ran was just halfway through his words, and when he saw me come out, he stopped abruptly, like a mouse who saw a cat, and dodged.

"Zhang Xiaoming, we don't know each other, what qualifications do you have to take care of my business?" Wan Zixuan's expression was as usual, still elegant, but his words were cold and could form ice ballast.

Zhang Xiaoming was like a powder keg that had been ignited, exploded in an instant, rushed towards Wan Zixuan, punched him in the nose, and muttered in his mouth: "I'm not qualified, I'm not qualified, yes, I'm not qualified." Yingying died so miserably, are you so at ease? …… I'm so ...... You can't bear it...... I'm not qualified to ......"

Wan Zixuan was punched by Zhang Xiaoming, his face instantly turned hideous, and the two of them were inseparable. Li Chang smiled more and more happily.

Zhang Xiaoming could only scream, Wan Zixuan didn't squeak but punched to the flesh, and soon, Zhang Xiaoming was knocked to the ground, his face was red and swollen, but Wan Zixuan acted as if nothing had happened, but his clothes were slightly wrinkled.

"Neurotic!"

Zhang Ran scolded, and then wrapped around Wan Zixuan like a koala, Wan Zixuan spat and was persuaded by Zhang Ran to leave. Li Chang, who was not far away, saw that the victory and defeat had been divided, and seemed to have lost interest anymore, so he hid in the grass and disappeared.

It wasn't until they left that I found out that Zhang Ran was holding a cat in his arms, a somewhat familiar cat, which shrunk into Zhang Ran's arms and only exposed its head, with round eyes and very ignorant. However, I always felt that this cat had bad intentions, like a monster hiding in the grass.

Zhang Xiaoming lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up, tears flowed down, and his mouth kept stopping: "Why don't you want me?" Why don't you want me? ”

I didn't help him until he regained his composure, slowly got up, and the tears stopped.

"Uncle You, I know your secret."

His eyes were calm, like a lake without waves.

I sneered, "What can I do ...... secret?"

"You introduced Wu Jin to Zhou Tianming, right?"

"So what? It's no secret either. ”

"It's for the Tai Sui below." He looked straight at me, his face was blue and red, it was ridiculous, but I couldn't laugh, "I saw the two of them wandering around at night, and they shouldn't have found Tai Sui's specific location yet." ”

"What do you mean......"

"I know where Tai Sui is." His eyes were stunned: "I'll help you get Tai Sui, I don't want to share, but you have to help me with one thing." ”

"They are all masters, and they will always find them, so I won't follow them." I smiled, but the smile didn't reach my eyes.

Zhang Xiaoming paused for a moment, as if he was a little overwhelmed, and ripples rippled on the calm and waveless lake: "Uncle You, can I beg you?" I...... I really can't bear it anymore, I'm afraid I'll kill myself if it goes on like this......"
