Zhao Zheng's fear rose from the bottom of his heart, he wanted to exit the house, but his legs seemed to have taken root, he hated that his legs and feet would not obey if he didn't encounter this situation.
The old woman also recognized Zhao Zheng and said, "It's you, little brother, sit down." ”
The old woman pulled out a broken stool from under the table and wiped it with a rag.
Zhao Zheng responded casually, as if he couldn't help himself at this time, he sat down on his knees, and thought about the broken stool, as if it was about to fall apart, Zhao Zheng hurriedly stood up.
The old woman said, "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way." ”
Zhao Zheng sat down cautiously again, this time the sound of the broken stool was a little quieter, and finally it didn't fall apart.
After Zhao Zheng sat down, he secretly cursed himself in his heart, why didn't he leave?
Whenever he was nervous and scared, he would lose his opinion, and instead follow the situation he encountered at that time, he was completely swayed by the environment.
When you feel that you don't have the power to dominate an environment, you will consciously or unconsciously follow that environment, you may not feel anything at that time, or you feel that something is wrong, but you can't change the situation at that time, and then you often feel sorry for yourself, why don't you help yourself at that time? Why do you have to follow others at that time? And your own opinions are not firm?
Zhao Zheng was in such a situation at this time.
What he wants to do in his heart is the opposite of what he is doing.
At this time, the old woman brought out a bowl of turbid water from the inner room, the bowl of water did not have a little heat, I was afraid that it had been cold for a long time, the old woman looked at Zhao Zheng, there was an unpredictable look in her eyes, and said, "Little brother, drink a bowl of water." ”
The bowl was broken, and the water seemed to be spilled if it was not careful, but strangely, not a drop was spilled.
Zhao Zheng took the bowl reluctantly, saw that there seemed to be some black precipitation in the turbidity, and gently placed the bowl on the table.
Zhao Zheng raised his head, staring at him with a pair of smiling eyes in front of the old woman, his eyes met the old woman, he was startled, and hurriedly picked up the bowl again.
The ear mouse didn't know when it arrived at Zhao Zheng's feet, it opened its pointed mouth and bit Zhao Zheng's trouser leg and shook it from side to side, when Zhao Zheng looked down, the ear mouse tugged at his trouser leg, as if telling him not to drink the bowl of water, and seemed to ask him to leave the place quickly.
The ear mouse was tugging on Zhao Zheng's trouser leg, and his little head was tilted sideways to the old woman, and his two long ears couldn't stop swinging.
The old woman said to the stern voice of the ear mouse, "Don't make trouble. ”
The ear mouse seemed to be an obedient child, and after listening to the adult's words, he immediately obediently let go of Zhao Zheng's trouser leg and returned to the old woman's feet, but his two eyes stared at Zhao Zheng with stubbornness.
"It's cold outside, let's warm up with a bowl of hot water. ”
The old woman's words seemed to be a plea and a command.
Zhao Zheng seemed to be really thirsty all of a sudden. He didn't think much about it, or he didn't even think about whether he should drink it or not, so he raised the bowl and poured it down.
The bowl of water looked very turbid, but it didn't taste turbid at all, it was clear, cool, like a sweet spring, like jade brew, but he had never drunk such a good water.
The old woman breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes full of kindness and kindness.
Zhao Zheng felt a slight dizziness, and then some dizziness, his eyes seemed to see layers of old women and ear mice, they all silently looked at their ugly bodies upside down like drunk, just like that, quietly.
Zhao Zheng was stunned for a while, shook his head vigorously, and finally, the layers of old women and ear rats returned to one, he looked at the old woman dumbfounded, and his right eye spasmed for no reason.
At this time, he felt that there was something abnormal in his right eye for the second time since the last time the qi and blood in his body hit his right eye.
The old woman looked at him in a daze, nodded slightly, her face was covered with a layer of joy, her voice suddenly became very excited, and said:
"I'm not wrong after all, you are the one I want to find, this bowl of water is not something anyone can drink if they want to. ”
Zhao Zheng sighed, and suddenly had the urge to sleep, he shook his head hard, and finally supported the heaviness of his eyelids, and then, he lay on the broken table and fell asleep quietly.
There was no wind, but the light was pressed very low, and the old woman pulled the wick with her fingernails, and the lamp was slightly brighter.
The old woman held Zhao Zheng's face with two calloused palms, and she was so careful, as if she had held a very precious object, holding it in her hand and studying it carefully.
Although Zhao Zheng was not born as beautiful as Pan An and Song Yu, he can be regarded as dignified, these days of running and tormenting, his face is a little more haggard, and he is less pampered and immature in the past.
The old woman looked at the face carefully, and her mouth made a smacking sound, and her mouth whispered: "Yes, yes, it is indeed difficult to find, it is indeed difficult to find." ”
The dexterous body of the ear mouse has run to Zhao Zheng's feet at some point, stretching out his front paws while shaking Zhao Zheng's trouser legs, while secretly peeking at the old woman with small eyes from time to time, it saw that the old woman was paying attention to the sleeping person, and when she didn't pay attention to herself at all, she shook Zhao Zhenglai with more force, and occasionally slapped him with her ears.
Zhao Zheng slept very well and seemed to be having a sweet dream, nostalgic for the dream, refusing to return to reality.
The ear mouse's small eyes also seemed to contain anxiety, and it pushed harder and harder, so that the broken table squeaked.
Zhao Zheng still didn't think about it, but the sound of the table ushered in the displeased eyes of the old woman.
Frightened by this gaze, the eared rat stopped all efforts, and shrank into the corner of the wall, and looked around, sniffing for a while, and suddenly smelling something, and ran into the inner chamber.
The old woman was still admiring Zhao Zheng's sleepy face, she looked at it from all directions, and there was still a gesture in her hand.
The stalkless, who had been waiting quietly by the thatched pile outside the door, didn't see Zhao Zheng come out for a long time, and was about to check the situation, when he suddenly saw a gray thing out of nowhere, which quickly crossed in front of his eyes, and the thing suddenly stopped, standing in front of the door of the hut, waving its front paws up and down at him.
Couldn't he look at it, wasn't this the ear mouse he had captured that day?
The ear rat waved at him for a while, and then quickly burrowed into the crack in the door, and Handleless suddenly had a bad feeling.
With a tug of his body, he broke free of the rope that bound him on the edge of the thatch, slammed open the door and rushed in.
Inside the room, Zhao Zheng was lying motionless on the table.
Wushane was shocked, and looked around, there was no one except Zhao Zheng, and the room was empty, only one table and one seat.
He floated into the inner room, a dilapidated clay kang that had been uninhabited for many years.
His eyes looked all over the room, and he couldn't see the slightest abnormality, and the ear mouse didn't know where it had gone.
