On the road, occasionally a lonely farmhouse can be seen.In the yard or near the warehouse, there are often people with backpacks on their backs, who seem to come from the street.These are buyers looking for rice and yams.The guests put on an ingratiating smile as best they could, but the peasant women were rude and domineering. Yong Zao thinks that everything is money.Although the recent farmers, rather than money, they welcome the kimono and western clothes that urbanites keep in their closets.However, it is actually money.As long as you pay twice or three times the price, you can still buy rice secretly hidden by farmers without kimono or western clothes.Yong Zao suddenly felt that the insatiable greed of the peasants was abominable, and that the urbanites who moved their spare clothes all the way to the countryside were really pitiful.

Thinking of how rare it is to be able to bring a female companion to the hot spring these days, I feel complacent.People in the city still haven't escaped from the "Bamboo Slips Life".The wind gusts and never stops, and everyone lives in embarrassment.I am truly grateful for being in this situation. Speaking of gratitude, Yingzi should really thank him.Her past days were also a life of stripping off her clothes one by one.Salary income is impossible to live on, and when I can marry my lover is also slim.Such a woman puts on extremely expensive clothes and comes to this hot spring area in the northeast to play leisurely. I really want to ask her who she relies on?It is really infuriating to resist and argue so little over trivial matters, and to be so self-willed.

The field is still yellowing.Although there is new green sprouting from it, it is not at most.The cedar forests are distinctly tawny, and the deciduous trees are still bare. The road turned into a trail, and the hills rolled up ahead.Yong Zao intends to go on for a while before turning back.Although I don't know where I will go, but walking again and seeing what kind of tribes there are, maybe it can also become a good memory.The reason why he was in such a mood was caused by the relationship with Yingzi since last night, and he hoped to use this to relieve the troubles in his stomach.

Walking on the path in the grassland, I came out to the river.It was desolate and deserted, and there was no one there.Overhead, several crows flew past screaming.The river still looked cold. The trail left the river again.The grass is short and withered and yellow. Last year's awn flower was broken and hung there with black hair.Go back, Yong Zao Xiang.At this moment, a figure appeared from the grass on the right, which surprised him. It was the back of a woman.The upper body is a pinpoint pattern dress, the lower body is wearing trousers, and a thermos is hanging from the shoulder.From the hairstyle and posture, it can be seen that it is a young woman.

Yong Zao looked at the back of the other party, and gradually became curious.After walking for a long time without seeing a peasant family, why did an urban woman suddenly appear?The woman didn't look back, and hurried on with all her strength.There are muddy canvas shoes on the feet. The gentle hills on both sides of the path ended in small cliffs, where the path turned and the scenery narrowed suddenly.Curiosity drives Yongzoo to follow. He has no nail-biting intentions, but he also hopes to have something to chat with women in such a quiet wilderness. Turning a corner under the cliff, the river is farther away from the path, and there is a fir forest nearby, and a dense miscellaneous forest on the other side.The leaves are all gone, and because the tree grows densely, there is no end in sight.

The woman's pace is very brisk.It seems to be in a hurry.There are hills ahead, blocking the way like a wall.On the hills there is bright sunlight, and in the bare places, the red soil reflects the light brilliantly.It was so dark in the forest where the sunlight could not penetrate, but the sunlight on the hills was so bright, the two formed such a clear contrast, and he held on to Yongzao's heart tightly. There was still no one around, Yong Zao couldn't hold back anymore, he wanted to talk to the woman in front of him.It must be fun, he thought, to walk on such a path, talking and walking with such a woman.He quickened his pace.

"Hello." Yuzuo finally spoke. The woman stopped suddenly.She turned her head back, her eyes wide open.But only for a moment.She walked faster. Yong Zao guessed that she was suddenly approached by a stranger, so he became vigilant.To show that he was harmless and to reassure her, he preferred to talk to her.Young women would of course be afraid to meet strange men in such a place.However, Yong Zao only had the romantic idea of ​​talking to the young woman in a place where no one was around, and had no other intentions at all. "Miss, I want to ask you a question." Yuzo raised his voice a bit.

It turned out that I didn't want to ask for directions, but just wanted the other party to stop. The woman stopped reflexively.The back seemed to be afraid of something.It was only later that she realized that she had become terrified, but at the time she thought she had just heard his words and stopped to wait for him. "Where are you from?" When Yong Zao saw the other party stop, he also relaxed. His voice, like his bony frame, turned out to be quite sonorous.Although an employee of the Navy Depot, he was originally a reserve sergeant.His voice was forged on the ship, and his physique was strong.His countenance belongs to the so-called burly category.

Unexpectedly by Yuzo, the woman suddenly shouted: "Help!" The woman screamed, and at the same time threw away the kettle and ran desperately. Yong Zao was immediately puzzled.The woman clearly misunderstood.However, I really can't make up my mind whether I should explain it, or pretend to be fine and turn back.In the end, he chose the former. Because this is a wild trail with no one around.Although the whereabouts are not clear, it seems that there may be tribes not far away.In case the woman ran to someone's house, someone might be chasing her.In this way, wouldn't his position be embarrassing.If he could explain clearly before that, it would be equivalent to lifting his own crisis.

It would be best to convince her.So he pulled up his legs and rushed up from behind. The woman shouted again when she heard footsteps behind her. "Help! Help!" At this moment, Yong Zao caught up with her and covered her mouth. "Please stop shouting." Yong Zao scolded the young woman.Under his huge slap, young eyebrows and eyes were revealed.And those eyes trembled with terror, staring at the sky. The soft body struggled in his arms.Yong Zao thinks that if she is let go at this time, the situation will get even worse.Because of this, if someone sees it, they must only think about the bad side.

To Yongzao's horror, although this is a path in the wilderness, it is undoubtedly a human path.Someone could turn the corner at any moment.Then it occurred to him that he must hide this dangerous game from view on the path.He dragged her into the shade of the weed forest.The fallen leaves have no shins, and the woman's feet kicked the dead leaves under her feet. Yong Zao wants to escape from this critical situation.No matter how much you talk now, it is impossible to pull back the other party's rationality.Letting her go would more likely cause his disillusionment.The business has finally laid a solid foundation, and there are still wives and children at home.What I remember even more is Yingzi who stayed in the hotel.Wouldn't it be a bad thing if he was treated as a pervert and sent to the police station in the village.So he covered the woman's palm and unconsciously increased his strength. A few minutes later, he suddenly felt the weight of the woman's body on his wrist.It didn't really feel like that long, but it was probably about five minutes.In short, he has lost himself.Relax the arms and the woman is paralyzed.Fallen leaves buried half of her belly.When he saw her face for the first time, his eyes were wide open and his nostrils were bleeding. Yong Zao immediately wanted to escape.The location is in the shade of a miscellaneous forest, and there is a collapsed cliff next to it. The roots of the trees are entangled, and they are drawn as countless white lines hanging down.This scene will remain in his memory for a long time. When Yuzo hurriedly exited from the forest, he met a young man with a backpack on the path.When the two missed each other, they stared at each other for a moment.The man wore a cap that looked like a hiking cap, a cheap jacket, worn fleece trousers and worn-out shoes. "Did you see a young girl?" asked the young man eagerly.About twenty-seven or eight years old, with a pale face, a thin body, and a very weak appearance. Yongzao replied no. "Please wait. I just heard a woman's voice." The young man approached almost questioningly.From that face and tone, he seemed to sense what Yuzo had done to the woman.His eyes were bloodshot and his breath was short of breath. "How do I know?" Yuzo wanted to turn around, but the man desperately pushed the chest of Yuzo's thick jacket. "Wait, I'll go take a look." After speaking like an order, he hurried to the forest full of fallen leaves. Yong Zao had no killing intent at all, but suddenly had the urge to stop the other party.If he saw the woman lying on the fallen leaves, wouldn't everything be over? Yongzo threw himself on the man's back fiercely. ...Though the fallen leaves piled up like a hill, two corpses of a young man and a woman were laid down side by side.A deep groove appeared in the fallen leaf layer, which was the scratch of the man's dead body.When Yuzo was about to escape, he saw the backpack.It was less than half full, but it caught his attention. When I opened it, I couldn't help being dumbfounded.Inside are countless bisque-fired pottery fragments.There are also mud-stained picks and spades. Yuzou covered the backpack, and when he was about to drag the dead body in, his knee bumped into something hard in the backpack.He opens the backpack.The things were carefully wrapped in newspaper, and there were three or four hard things inside. It is also a plain-fired red clay puppet.It was a very strange face.The eyes are particularly large and ugly.Another is its naked carcass, and the rest are fragments from the waist down.Her belly bulged like she was pregnant, and her breasts were weirdly shaped.What an ugly clay puppet.The head, carcass, and lower body are broken into pieces like folk products from Southeast Asia.Those scratches are very old, so it can be seen that this man didn't smash them up. Putting all the parts together, the height is only about five centimeters. Yongzao seemed to feel that the big eyes of the clay puppet were possessed by the soul of the man he had just killed, and stared at him.That ugly face aroused an indescribable disgust.He grabbed the hideous clay figure, left the fallen leaves, and hurled it at the stones in the path.The clay puppets shattered so easily.He also lifted his foot and stomped it to pieces.
