Chapter 50 forty nine

Maria goes on a trip (3) "Yeah, it's broken..." Ulla's voice sank, "depression...sickness, that kind of heart disease...you are a foreigner, you can't see them, they won't come out. Some people... ...Hiding in the house until death. Only Qing wandered around here, Qing..." Maria's mood in the dream also became very melancholy. She was walking along an endless path in the forest. The path was very dark, and there were suspicious calls in the forest from time to time, maybe it was a beast.She was very tired, beyond her heart's load, and she suddenly had a thought: Could this be the "Land of Death"?Thinking of this brought tears to my eyes.Maria was greatly surprised. A person like her has never been associated with sadness. What is going on now?She stopped, sat down in the grass, and heard the calls of the beasts more and more frequently.At this time, she heard her own heartbeat again, beating twice, stopping once, and the sound of blood passing through the ventricle.She thought, her heart was broken.

When Maria woke up, she smelled the fragrance of grass leaves, and she remembered that in her dream, she was pulling weeds on her own grave.In the living room, Wula was talking with Qing, and the voices came from waves, and their tone seemed very intimate, even provocative.Maria dressed, made her bed, and could not make up her mind whether to go into the hall or not.But Ulla was calling her. Ula sat in Qing's arms, her supple body looked so enchanting, Maria was stunned.Her bronzed hair was loose, thick and shiny, and brightened the room. "Come and drink coffee," she said calmly to Maria.

Ching poked her face out from her plump shoulders and looked at Maria mockingly. Maria looked at her blue-veined, hard-working hands with shame.After a while, she tried to raise her eyes, and kept her eyes on Qing's expressionless face, which aroused some kind of long-term memory in her heart.She thought of the granite streets, and the old jewelers who walked them. "She's very shy." Qingzhi looked at her blankly and said. Probably Wula also felt that it was too much, so she broke free from Qing's arms and poured coffee for Maria. Maria noticed that the beetles in the tank had become quiet.At this moment, Qing went outside to smoke a cigarette, and Wula sat down next to Maria.

"So you two are lovers." Maria said dryly. "I became his mistress because I was afraid. You don't know, Maria, how difficult my life is. During the day, I go from house to house to comfort those who are in pain, and besides I have to raise beetles, receive A guest from afar like you doesn’t feel bothered by being busy. But at night, everything changes. Every night I go crazy. One night, I felt like I became a goat, cutting the grass at the door Eat a big piece! In this way, in the morning, I will be in pain. Later, Qing came, and he stood under the starlight, and his wolf-like eyes stunned me. We two homeless People come together like this. Don't think how good I am with him, most of the time, he is my enemy."

The enthusiasm in Wula's eyes suddenly faded, showing sadness.She proposes to take Maria on a tour of the village. "You will see scenes you are familiar with." She smiled flatteringly. They ate some bread and went out.At the door, Qing, who was smoking a cigarette, gave Maria a hard look, which made her whole body numb and her face hot. "No one can resist his charm." Ula shook her hair proudly. They soon entered the dense bamboo forest.Although it was summer, Maria still felt cold and had goosebumps all the time. She regretted not wearing more clothes.Later, as she walked, it became colder and colder, and she shivered all over her body.

"Ulla, how did you know about my situation?" "We have been in touch for a long time. So in the past years, I have been sending you travel briefings." Ulla didn't answer her question.Maria hoped that they would go into a family's house to warm up quickly. She felt that all the giant bamboos had turned into icicles, and she would freeze if she walked any further.She looked at Ula beside her, and saw that her face was ruddy, and she didn't feel cold at all.At last Maria saw a mud hut, and at the door sat a dirty boy, his face covered with mud, stirring up the water in a stinking gutter with a stick.Ula said to go in and sit down, and Maria immediately agreed.The boy threw the stick into the water, and the dirty water splashed on Maria's trousers.Maria heard Ulla calling the little boy "be good."

After entering the house, it became warmer.There were three people lying in the room, all lying in one room, but sleeping on three camp beds.It's not like a home, it's like a temporary hotel.The three of them didn't sleep, they just stared at the roof.The two older ones are probably the owners of the house, and the other one is a middle-aged woman.The middle-aged woman has a sad expression.His thin hands were grabbing the iron rod at the head of the bed, twitching nervously.The two old men were relatively calm. They were covered with the kind of blue quilt with gold flowers on a blue background that Maria covered them, and they hardly moved.

Ulla was squatting by the bed talking to the middle-aged woman, her voice was almost a whisper, and Maria couldn't hear it clearly.As she spoke, the woman's nervousness eased, and her hand that was tightly gripping the iron rod at the head of the bed loosened.After a while, Maria saw a girlish shyness on her face.She sighed and sat up on the bed.When she sat up, the two old men both rose from their respective beds and stared at her reproachfully, as if she were doing something disgraceful.The three of them faced each other awkwardly. "Lila, this is the Maria I told you about. Didn't you want to ask her about that? You see, she came in person." Ulla broke the deadlock.
