At that time, Lu Fang signaled to Chen Mao that he wanted Chen Mao to push his head down, but Chen Mao misunderstood, he rushed up and raised the butt of his gun to hit Old Xia Liu on the head.With a dull sound, Old Xia Liu staggered and stopped.The old landlord's eyes were still shining, and he said softly, "Dog." Lu Fang said that the meeting place was really chaotic, and all the maple and poplar people stood up, and he saw Cuihuahua running from the crowd wearing gold bracelets When she came over, she went straight to the old landlord crying and howling. She snatched a poppy leaf from a man and put it on the old landlord's wound. The old landlord pushed her away and said, "It's none of your business, go home." He went straight to Chen Mao to grab his gun.Cuihuahua was tearing up with Chen Mao while crying and cursing, "How dare you beat my boss, your dog dick that can't be emptied, and the dog dick that can't be emptied." Feng Yangshu laughed loudly.Lu Fang yelled at Chen Mao, "Pull her off!" But Chen Mao just dodged under Cuihuahua's tearing.Lu Li heard someone shouting from the audience: "Chen Ermao, Cuihuahua, ×××!" He couldn't hear the following words clearly, and he couldn't bear to shout, "Don't drag her down, drag her down." Chen Mao's face turned red again And white, he scolded a stinky bitch, then kicked Cuihuahua's breasts, and then Chen Mao also said to the woman, "It's none of your business, get the hell out of here." Lu Fang said that Liu Laoxia's The struggle meeting is so smoky that you can't laugh or cry.The weather was also strange that day. The sun was fine in the morning and there was no wild wind, but it suddenly darkened at noon, and many people were watching the sky.When preparing to burn the pile of land deed books of the Liu family in public, the wind suddenly came. The wind suddenly blew from Huoniu Ridge, and blew out the gasoline lighter in Lu Fang's hand.The wind suddenly rolled those withered and yellow land deed bills into the air and onto the top of people's heads. The 3,000 maple and poplar people stared with bated breath at first, and the land deed bills flew low like butterflies and made a gentle buzzing, and a loud roar burst out from the depths of the crowd, "Grab!" The maple and poplar people collided and pushed each other, their black arms stretched out into the air.The staff members of Lufang yelled loudly, "Folks, don't rob, the land deed bill is useless." But no one listened.Lu Fang said he had no choice but to fire three more shots.He said that Fengyangshu people are not afraid of anything, except your gunshots.After the three gunshots, the Maple Poplar people were calm again, and all the land deed books were tucked in their arms.What can you say to them who tuck those papers as contentedly as they tuck the earth?Lu Fang said he finally let them all take home.

"Shen Cao, come here." Dad called him.Shen Cao walked to father's bedside, he stared at father's hand stretched out to the void, that hand had a moldy smell like poppies that had been drenched in the rain.Dad is sick.I know.Dad was sick for the first time.I know.Dad will only get sick if he can't survive, and it depends on you. What?You always can't understand what Dad says.I should have drowned you in a dung bucket. Back then it was better to let Jiang Long take you away, being a bandit is worse than being a dog, now it is our turn to be a dog.Shen Cao saw that her father was still holding a handful of poppy leaves tightly in his hand.Shen Cao said you put it down, the poppy harvester will never come again.Dad nodded, his hands hung down from the air and groped around Shen Cao's waist.Shen Cao said, Dad, what are you touching?Gun, the gun I gave you.here.Let me hear you fire a shot.There are only two bullets, and when they are finished, they are gone.

Then keep it, use the gun on the road. After Shen Cao walked to the bed, his mother had already packed his luggage, and a lot of packages were piled on the ground.Mother sat on the toilet and cried, she always sat on the toilet and cried.Shen Cao felt hungry, turned her face away to find the black pottery urn filled with dry food, the wooden lid of the pottery urn hadn't been opened for a long time, and it was covered with a layer of dust.He put his hand in, and it was empty. He only took out a piece of hard steamed bun. The steamed bun had been bitten, and the crescent-shaped tooth marks had turned black.When Shen Cao picked up the steamed bun and brought it to her mouth, she heard her mother yell, "Don't eat it, it's left over from Yan Yi's eating!" He looked at the old steamed bun from the previous year, and saw Yan Yi's bloody face engraved on the steamed bun. , but he couldn't put down the bun, "I'm hungry." He retched and gnawed, the bun was like a cup of medicine in his belly, and he ran outside while vomiting, and heard Dad patting the bed angrily, " Don't eat, get out of here, get out of here!" On the night when Shen Cao fled, it rained heavily, but the dog didn't bark, and the sound of the rain covered up Liu Shen Cao's hasty and confused footsteps.In the early morning of the next day, a large mess of footprints like a honeycomb was left in front of Liu's house.The maple and poplar people who went to drain the rice fields shouted around those footprints, and the landlords ran away.Now it seems that if you run away, you run away. You don’t need to chase down the lost dog anymore, Lu Fang said, but in 1950, I was immersed in a certain kind of excited state of mind and couldn’t stop the red-maned horse under my crotch.I led Chen Mao and the work team to chase along Shen Cao's footprints until we reached Huoniu Ridge. I saw Shen Cao climbing slowly. He really looked like he was running slowly.There are five or six packages tied to his body, like a warrior in armor and holding a spear, going to a distant place.Shen Cao heard the sound of horseshoes and turned around. He stood like a puppet and looked at me.Chen Mao was about to take a picture, but I stopped him. I saw him standing on a rocky cliff, and I was afraid he would jump off.I shouted to him: "Don't run away, it's the same wherever you run, you can't escape from my palm." They just stood still like puppets.Later, he started to untie the packages on his body, and he quickly pushed the packages down the cliff. I heard the crisp sound of metal hitting the rocks, and I guessed that he pushed all the Liu family's gold and silver treasures into the deep stream.

Only the largest package was left behind, and Shen Cao sat on the cliff with it in her arms and waited for us to go up.I kicked the bag until it became soft, and I saw some off-white powder flow out from the cracks, emitting a strange and intoxicating fragrance. "What is this?" I asked Shen Cao. "Poppy." Shen Cao said. "Who told you to escape?" I asked again.I saw Shen Cao lying on my lap with a troubled expression, and said wearily, "My father." "Where do you want to escape to?" "Look for Jiang Long." "Do you want to be a bandit?" "I don't know. I don't know at all."

The blocked dead grass is as pitiful as a leaf in the wind, but you can't see his gun.Lu Fang said that I didn't expect that there was a gun hidden in Shen Cao's waist.People who know the inside story talk about the history of Liu's family and emphasize the blood relationship between Shen Cao and long-time worker Chen Mao.They say that the birth of Shencao is an automatic opportunity for the collapse and demise of the landlord's family. You have to learn to see the sea from a drop of water.They said that the birth of Shen Cao heralds the decline and demise of Old Xia Liu. There are many dialectical causal relationships here, which I cannot explain clearly. I can only truthfully describe the development curve of the history of the Liu family to you.I know that you are also interested in Chen Mao, the former long-term worker and later the chairman of the peasant association.Chen Mao is actually an extraordinary image.His appearance and disappearance will definitely form a frame of reference with the landlord family.Lu Fang said that the agrarian revolution of maple and poplar was able to move forward because of its bones.He still cherishes the memory of Chen Mao, the chairman of the peasant association with a suona on his waist and a spear on his shoulder.I asked Chen Mao what happened afterwards?On the Lu side, he showed embarrassment and refused to bring up this topic, and he said a secretive sentence: You can change a person's fate but not his blood.He also said that some men are destined to die on a woman's belt, and you can't take him off.

1950 was also a complicated and turbulent year in Chen Mao's sexual history.That year, Chen Mao and Cuihuahua cut off the cobweb of love for many years, and those who were fascinated by his suona hoped that his life would be on the right track.You notice a change in his handsome, obscene face, which brings him back to his youth, and gives him the charm of a new man.Women proposed marriages to Chen Mao in an endless stream, and Chen Mao always smiled and said nothing.The women said, "Chen Ermao, have you let the landlord's wife empty you out?" Chen Mao raised his gun and yelled at them, "Fuck off, don't worry about my dick, I know who I want!" You can guess that Chen Mao wants Who is it.

Chen Mao sneaked into Liu's mansion in the middle of the night.The moonlight was very clear that day, and the backflow of spring's lust could not be heard in the night sky, and his body was very peaceful.Standing in front of Liu Suzi's window with a gun in his arms, he turned around and saw a familiar shadow stretching long, long on the mossy ground. It was his own shadow.He recalled how many late nights he touched Cuihuahua's window like this in the past. Chen Mao was in a strange mood, neither excited nor nervous, as if he was following a long-cherished wish to complete a big event.He saw Liu Suzi's cat lying on the window sill, its emerald eyes shining in the moonlight.You fucking cat.Chen Mao muttered, and he pulled out the bayonet on the gun and aimed it at the cat's eye. The stab was right, and the cat's eye spurted out dark blood. The cat whimpered.Chen Mao gently pried open the wooden window with a bayonet, and jumped into the east wing.He saw Liu Suzi sleeping on the big bamboo couch, she was still asleep, and Chen Mao knew that she was a sleepy woman.Liu Suzi was half naked outside the quilt.This was the first time he saw Liu Suzi's real breasts, which were huge and plump. He thought that women in Liu's family had such provocative breasts only if they ate well.Chen Mao pulled the sweat towel from his neck and gently covered the woman's eyes, then he picked her up from the quilt, that soft body was as cool and cool as a bamboo leaf.He wondered why she was still awake, maybe she was dreaming.He heard the cat whimper again as he carried her into the yard.Chen Mao's hand trembled, he didn't expect the dead cat to whimper again.The robbed woman finally woke up. She struggled in Chen Mao's arms, her sleepy eyes that were closed were like cats emitting a frightened green light. "Jiang Long, Jiang Long's bandits are here!"

Chen Mao hugged the woman tightly and ran out the door. He saw the lights in Cuihuahua's house turned on, and Cuihuahua came out and followed them disheveled.Leaning on the porch pillar, he turned his head abruptly, "What are you doing with us? Slut." Cuihuahua grabbed his gun silently, he dodged and continued to run, he heard Cuihua tripped by something, Cuihuahua finally shouted, "Dog, put her down!" "You call me again and I'll kill you with one shot." Chen Mao lifted Liu Suzi up and said.He hugged the cold woman tightly and ran towards the field.The moonlight was clear and bright, but the night wind passed by flushed. He felt that the woman in his arms was getting colder and colder, and he couldn't bear the cold.He had to take that cold body inside him.Chen Maofei was running, he heard a flying sound from himself, he knew it was not a dream but it felt more like flying than a dream, he ran towards the straw grass pavilion, he saw the straw grass pavilion standing in the moonlight .It calls to him in the form of a temple, and he must fly in, fly in! "Dog, put me down, you can't touch me." The woman shouted in his arms. "I have to touch it." Chen Mao gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to fuck you sooner or later." "Who are you?" The woman opened her eyes wide, and she couldn't see his face clearly. "Chen Mao." Chen Mao answered after thinking for a while, "I'm not Jiang Long, I let Jiang Long go first." Chen Mao put Liu Suzi under the straw grass pavilion, he looked up and saw a bird fly away under the cone-shaped grass roof To the night bird.This is really a good place to have sex. Chen Mao smiled silently and sat on the woman's belly. Under the moonlight, the snow-white and cool carcass shone with a cold light. He closed his eyes and groped around in the circle of cold light. on high breasts.He felt that the woman was already limp, but his body was also trembling uncontrollably like a pendulum, his mouth gasped, feeling his unprecedented weakness, "I'm going to fuck you sooner or later. "He was biting the woman's areola, and heard the copper suona rolling out of his side, making a bang.Lu Fang said that he once felt the mysterious field between Chen Mao and the landlord's family.But he couldn't figure out the inextricable connection between them.He asked Chen Mao, and Chen Mao couldn't tell, all he knew was that he hated the landlord's family.Chen Mao said, "Either I am a dog or they are dogs, that's it, that's the way I am with their family." Lu Fang didn't know that Chen Mao had committed violence against Liu Suzi until one day Cuihuahua came out of Liu's house. Li jumped out and pulled him to sue Chen Mao, saying that Liu Suzi was pregnant with Chen Mao's seed.Lufang said don't frame our cadres, Cuihuahua swears to the sky, she said sir, don't trust Chen Mao, that is a cheap and nasty dog, he fucked all over Feng Yangshu and the woman finally killed Liu Suzi Done, go and see Liu Suzi's stomach, it's his sin!Lu Fang later went to Chen Mao for verification. Chen Mao admitted frankly that he said that I had killed Liu Suzi. He asked Lu Fang whether he would not let Liu Suzi do the revolution, but Lu Fang could not answer.After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to remove Chen Mao as the chairman of the peasant association and dropped the gun in his hand.He remembered that when he lowered the gun, Chen Mao hugged the rifle tightly.He blushed and shouted, "Why didn't you let me do it? I hate them, I can revolution!" Lu Fang said that he was also disappointed, but the matter was out of control at this point. He knew that the work team could take Chen Mao from The deer grass was untied from the beam of the pavilion, but it could not stop his life as a man of maple and poplar.Lu Fang wanted to find a more ideal chairman of the peasant association in Fengyangshu.

It was raining that morning, maybe it wasn't rain, just the sound of wind blowing leaves.Shen Cao remembered that he was curled up in the sound of rain, and he saw himself transformed into a wasp hiding in the poppy buds and sucking. There was a scent of incense in his mouth, and his sleep was always half awake.After the rooster crowed for the first time, there were footsteps in the rain.He heard something hard knock on the window, and a white and cold shadow was reflected on the window paper.who are you?Shadow doesn't speak.When Shen Cao wanted to put on her clothes and get out of bed, she heard her sister say, "Shen Cao, if you are a man from the Liu family, then go and kill Chen Mao." "What did you say?" "I'll pick poppies, you go and kill Chen Mao ."

Shen Cao lights up the lamp, and the sister outside the window has disappeared.He thought she was strange, he thought maybe it was sleepwalking, my sister often sleepwalked.The footsteps disappeared in the rain, where did she go to pick poppies?Shen Cao seemed to fall asleep again, he curled up for an unknown amount of time, when he heard a commotion in the east wing, someone crying loudly.He ran to the east wing in a daze, and saw his father squatting beside his sister, who was lying on the ground, the white velvet cheongsam gleaming coldly, and he saw a few dark red tooth marks on her neck, and a necklace-like collar rope trail.The rope on the beam was still shaking slightly.She hanged herself, why did she hang herself?Shen Cao saw her father covering his face and crying, and his father said, "Good girl, men are not as good as you."

"She said she was going to pick poppies." Shen Cao wandered aimlessly around her sister's body, and he smelled a musty smell of poppies coming out of her open mouth, with a relaxed expression on her face.Shen Cao thought that if I spit out that smell, I would become more relaxed. "She said she was going to pick poppies, and I went to kill Chen Mao." Shen Cao said.He saw Pa jerk his head up, grinning in pain.He thought the disaster was really imminent this time.Dad stood up and hugged his neck tightly, and rubbed his face with his hands, "She's gone, what should you do, Shen Cao?" "What should I do?" , He recalled that Chen Mao rubbed his face like this when he was a child, it hurt a lot before, but now he doesn't feel it.what would you do?Shen Cao touched the gun at her waist, it was still there, it hadn't been used for a long time.Shen Cao thought for a while and said, "Okay then, I'll go and kill Chen Mao." Shen Cao raised her arm and hit the rope hanging in front of her, and walked outside.Mother rushed up from behind and hugged him, shouting, "Shen Cao, you can't go, you must not go." Father also rushed forward and hugged mother, and father said, "Go, kill Chen Mao and go home. "Mother said, "Can I go home after I go? You are the only one in the Liu family." Father said, "I can't control that anymore, go quickly." Mother shouted again, "Shen Cao, don't go, you kill me." Someone else can't kill Chen Mao." Dad kicked mother away at this moment, and dad yelled: "Slut, you are still in love with that dog!" Shen Cao looked back at the scene where the three were entangled with each other and felt very sad. It's funny, he said, "Will you let me go?" He saw his mother lying on the ground crying, his father's face was black and blue, and his father pushed him and said, "Shen Cao, go." At that time Feng Yang Shuren still doesn't know what happened in Liu's mansion.When the people in the field saw Liu Chencao coming out of the house, they shrank their shoulders in fear of the cold.He walked towards a crowded place, and when he saw someone he knew well, he asked, "Where is Chen Mao?" People all looked at his dazed appearance curiously, and they said, why are you looking for Chen Mao?Shen Cao said they asked me to kill Chen Mao.Everyone laughed it off, thinking that Shen Cao had a demonic disorder, and no one believed his words.For the first time, someone made a vicious joke in front of Shen Cao, "Son can't kill Lao Tzu." Shen Cao didn't respond to this.He passed pile after pile of people in the field, and finally heard a melodious suona sound from the Xiaocao Pavilion, and he walked towards the Xiaocao Pavilion.You have to believe that fate arranged a date at the Minosaur Pavilion on this day.Chen Mao sat there this morning and played the suona, which was so loud that the whole maple and poplar tree could hear the restless suona.Seeing Shen Cao approaching, Chen Mao shrank his shoulders in fear of the cold, he dropped the suona and said, young master, why did you come out for a stroll so early in the morning?He suddenly felt that Shen Cao's expression was not right, Shen Cao frowned and stretched his hands to his waist to fumble, he saw a shell gun wrapped in red cloth aimed at himself.Chen Mao thought that Shen Cao was joking, but he also knew that Shen Cao never joked with anyone.Chen Mao scratched his face and asked, "Shen Cao, what do you want to do?" "They asked me to kill you." "What did you say?" "They told me to kill you." "Don't listen to them. Shen Cao, haven't you heard that I'm your real father?" "I heard, I don't believe it." "If you want to kill me and let Old Xia Liu come, you can't." "I'll do it, I'll kill someone a long time ago." At the last moment, Chen Mao wanted to find the gun, but immediately realized that his gun had been dropped. "I'll fuck your grandma!" Chen Mao cursed, and then he threw the copper suona on Shen Cao's head.Shen Cao didn't hide, he stood stiffly and pulled the trigger.And so the gunshots rang out.Shen Cao shot twice, one at Chen Mao's crotch and one at Chen Mao's eye.He looked down and saw the smoke from the buckler, he weighed it in his hand and dropped it on the ground.There was a small crystal ball rolling on the ground, and he picked it up and found that it was Chen Mao's eyeball, which was sticky stuck between two fingers.The blood had already spread in the Minoica Pavilion, and Shen Cao looked for Chen Mao's genitals, but couldn't find them.He touched Chen Mao's crotch, and his genitals were still standing upright on him. "I can't hit it." Shen Cao muttered, he thought it was very strange.During this process, Shen Cao's sense of smell was always alert, and he could smell the ever-floating poppies in the field, which suddenly became rich and then disappeared.Shen Cao let out a mouthful of turbid air, feeling as transparent as the blue sky in her heart.He saw Chen Mao's body also fell to the ground like an old poppy.He thinks I've finally got that musty smell out of my mouth now, and now I'm as relaxed as my sister.Lu Fang said that you couldn't see the murderer Shen Cao after the incident, and no one saw where he ran.People rushed to Liu's mansion and saw Liu Suzi's body in the yard. After Liu Suzi died, he was lying on the big bamboo couch, his face unchanged as if he had slept peacefully at midnight.Liu Suzi has a bright red poppy in her black hair.The season for the poppy to bloom is long past, and you wonder how the landlord's family managed to preserve that poppy. "Where's Liu Chencao?" Lu Fang asked. "Dead, all damned people will die," said the old landowner. "Go to Huoxing, Shen Cao has gone to join Jiang Long." Cuihuahua said.Lu Fang and his men immediately searched for the murderer Shen Cao in Huoniu Ridge.In a cave, they saw Shen Cao's black uniform and Chen Mao's copper suona. The two things were close together, which made you unbelievable, but they couldn't find anyone. Shen Cao didn't know where he went.It was already dark when Lufang's men and horses returned to Maple and Poplar, and they could hear the unprecedented commotion in the whole countryside from afar.Men and women dragged their children and ran wildly in the village alleys.They saw the fire, which burned into a huge torch in the saffron pavilion.Lu Fang patted on the horse, and he witnessed a thrilling scene in Fengyangshu's rural life.He first discovered that the deceased Chen Mao had been relocated from the village office, and that the deceased Chen Mao had been hoisted to the wooden beams of the pavilion of the coir grass. The grass pavilion is burning and crackling, you think it should collapse but it still stands there.When you approached, you found three intertwined corpses lying on the ground, Liu Laoxia, Cuihuahua and Liu Suzi, they were not yet burned, and you were surprised that the four finally got together. "Old Xia Liu--Old Xia Liu--Old Xia Liu--" Lu Fang heard someone in the crowd shouting the old landlord's name loudly.You really can't understand Liu Laoxia's strange desire before he died.Lu Fang said how can you imagine that he would not spare the dead, he hung Chen Mao's body to the pavilion of straw grass, and made Chen Mao a funeral object before he died.Lu Fang said that he forgave the deceased Chen Mao's various mistakes from then on, and from then on he really hated the landlord Liu Laoxia who set himself on fire, and hated the extinct landlord class of that generation. In the winter of 1950, Lu Fang, the team leader, was ordered to suppress Liu Shencao, the landlord's son. At this point, the last member of Fengyangshu's Liu family died. Lu Fang walked into Liu's barn where Shen Cao was detained, and he saw the captured fugitive sitting in a large vat.Lu Fang remembered that when he reunited with Liu Chencao in Maple Poplar, it was by this big vat.There was another cracking sound in the dark, empty warehouse, and you could hear that a piece of history had been turned over and dropped to the ground.Lu Fang went over and knocked on the tank and said, "Liu Chencao, get out for me." Shen Cao seemed to be asleep.Lu Fang poked his head into the tank and saw Shen Cao chewing something with her eyes closed. "What are you chewing on?" Shen Cao dreamily said, "Poppy." Lu Fang didn't know how Shen Cao found the poppy when he was tied up, and when he pulled Shen Cao up from the jar, he realized that it was a poppy jar. It's filled with aged powdery poppy noodles.Lu Fang hugged Shen Cao, and Shen Cao's body was as light as a baby after fleeing.Shen Cao hooked Lu Fang's shoulder and said softly, "Please put me back in the tank." Lu Fang hesitated and threw him back into the big tank.Shen Cao closed her eyes and waited.When Lu Fang drew his gun, he heard Shen Cao finally say, "I'm going to be born again." Lu Fang shot Liu Chen Cao to death in the poppy jar.He said that he felt the poppies explode in the tank when the gun rang. It was the most powerful plant smell in the world. It rushed towards you like a beast. The smell was attached to your head, body, and hands, and you had nowhere to hide. To this day, Lu Fang still smells the smell of poppies on his body, which cannot be washed off no matter how much he washes.The writer recorded the last stroke in Liu's family tree. The largest landlord family in Fengyangshu died in the gunfire of the working group leader Lu Fang on December 26, 1950 AD.
