Chapter 40: The Scourge Shall Not Be Left
Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou looked at it and turned their heads to play with it, and while sighing that all things were animist, they were also amused.
"Yueyue, come and wash your hands." The latter put aside the blood-stained grass and stood by the babbling stream and called out.
She walked to the stream and squatted down, a pair of soft wattles were held in the palm of his hand, submerged in the cool stream, and washed the blood from her fingers.
Two blurred figures were reflected on the surface of the stream, and the water rippled with a shallow ripple, and after a while, it returned to normal.
They left the space and sat on the tatami mat by the window, drinking coffee and looking out the window at the snow-shrouded pavilion.
If you have nothing to do, play two more games of chess.
Chi Yue, who was holding the white son in his hand, blocked the sunspot who was about to have five sons, and looked at him with a light smile in his eyes.
When the sunspot touched the chess board, a piercing brake sound suddenly entered the pinna, breaking the warm atmosphere.
She smiled, and Wen Qizhou, who was holding the sunspot in her hand, also paused, tacitly leaned sideways, and looked downstairs through the glass window.
A sedan crashed into the columns of the pavilion.
Two adults, whose faces were covered by scarves and masks, got out of the car one after another, gathered around to talk a few words, and stared at the villa.
The first floor of the villa was half covered with heavy snow, and they couldn't get out of the door, so they went around to the next balcony and threw climbing hooks up.
Seeing this, Wen Qizhou and Chi Yue quickly put on their thick coats, the former took out a gun, and the latter put away the coffee and fruit.
They walked next door, pushed open the frosty balcony door, and bowed their heads to meet the two men holding the twine.
Wen Qizhou's cold voice: "You ......"
Before the threatening words were finished, the young man closest to the balcony pulled down his scarf to reveal his familiar face.
"Brother Zhou?!" This person is Yao Chengwei.
Seeing each other again after many months, he stared at Wen Qizhou and Chi Yue, and the joy of reunion instantly hit his heart, followed by an inexplicable sourness, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
The appearance of crying was seen by the couple who could not hide their surprise, and their expressions became gentle.
"Is that Zhao Peng down there?"
"Yes."
"Come on well, then." Wen Qizhou dragged the rope and pulled him and Zhao Peng to the balcony in turn.
Zhao Peng was also excited when he saw them.
His personality is much more restrained, but he can't help but be like Yao Chengwei, stepping forward and hugging their shoulders tightly.
"It's good to see you." He took a deep breath, choking a little as if his throat was choked with cotton.
In troubled times, many people see each other and see each other, and it is not easy to meet acquaintances, and his joy is indescribable to see them standing in front of him safely and soundly.
Yao Chengwei was crying.
His cry was mixed with grievances, and Chi Yue patted him on the back soothingly: "It's cold outside, let's go into the house." ”
The four of them walked to the bedroom.
They shook the snow off their bodies at the door, stepped into the warm bedroom, and couldn't help but relax.
Wen Qizhou beckoned them to sit on the sofa.
Pour two more glasses of water and hand them to their hands: "How long have you been in Heyuan City?" Is Brother Yuan with you? ”
"Just came here the other day." Zhao Peng took the water cup to warm his hands, pulled down the scarf and mask, revealing the knife marks from the corner of his forehead to the side of his face: "We separated from Brother Yuan when we came down from Nanshan, and he took his sister-in-law back to Yidong to find relatives." ”
He and Yao Chengwei are from Shangyang.
After the rainstorm stopped, they took Sun Rui, who did not find relatives in Nanshan, to Shangyang by boat, and encountered many dangers on the way, so they had to make a detour, so they were not on the same route as Wen Qizhou, and they did not pass through Lincheng.
They came to Heyuan because both of their parents died, his aunt was a bloodsucker who wanted to rely on him to support him, and Yao Chengwei was unwilling to stay in Shangyang under the grief of his parents' deaths, so they discussed and left overnight.
"Did you have your face wounded by a robber?" Chi Yue twisted his eyebrows and listened to his narration, staring at the terrifying scar again.
"It's not."
"He's doing it for me." After Yao Chengwei vented his emotions, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's all to blame Yang Beijia for that slut!" ”
When they were in the Nanshan shelter, Yang Beijia came to him repeatedly to ask for peace, but he didn't agree, she turned to complain to Mrs. Wang's son, saying that he had the intention to violate her.
Mrs. Wang's son believed.
He took advantage of the night to bring people to the cave to look for trouble, and during the fight, the kitchen knife also slashed at his neck.
"If it weren't for Zhao Peng, I would definitely be gone." He glanced at Zhao Peng guiltily, took a deep breath and held back his tears.
"What about them?"
"It's dead, I killed it with my own hands."
Chi Yue nodded.
Scourges like that really shouldn't be left behind.
Seeing that it was almost lunchtime, she went to the next bedroom to get some ingredients and prepared to invite them to eat hot pot.
The meat in shabu-shabu is all canned, and the vegetarian dishes are tomatoes, cabbage, leeks, etc., so they don't look too eye-catching.
They chatted about each other as they ate.
Wen Qizhou: "Where do you live now?" ”
"Base."
"How's the order?"
"It's okay." Zhao Peng roughly talked about the situation of the base, and was puzzled: "Why do you live here?" ”
"It's quiet, no one disturbs you."
"But when I came here just now, I saw several groups of people looking for supplies nearby, and you are no longer safe."
"yes." Yao Chengwei, whose mouth was full of oil, immediately said: "The official said that the temperature will be cooled down next, so there are many people who come out to find heaters, and they will come over sooner or later." ”
Wen Qizhou bowed: "I know." ”
From the moment they drove into the column, he knew that there was no more peace here.
He glanced at Chi Yue beside him, Chi Yue understood what he meant, thought for a moment, and quickly made a decision.
It was extremely cold for a long time, and it was difficult for them to stay in the villa for the rest of their time, so it was better to change places than to be disturbed frequently.
She asked, "Is there a villa at the base?" ”
"Yes."
"How many points in a month?"
“2000。” Yao Chengwei has learned the prices of all room types: "I still have a bunch of medicines, if you don't have enough supplies, tell me, you can rent a house with just a few boxes." ”
"You picked it up again?"
"How do you know?"
"......," she said casually.
It's no wonder that their complexion doesn't look bad, and the flesh on their faces hasn't lost much, and they dare to have a good luck buff on their bodies.
Chi Yue: "What else have you picked up?" ”
"The car downstairs." He counted the things he had picked up recently, and concluded, "My luck is good!" ”
They were amused by the funny tones.
The atmosphere, which was heavy at first, also changed quietly, as relaxed as when they used to get together.
After finishing the hot pot, Zhao Peng got up to clean up the table, looked up and said, "Sister Yue, where is the water you store?" ”
"Next door."
She brought a bucket of water from the stream.
Originally, they were going to wash it, but Yao Chengwei and Zhao Peng said that they wouldn't let anything: "You guys go and pack your luggage first." ”
