Chapter 6 Tomatoes Hidden in a Grain Rack

It finally "exploded". The grain stack, that is, the tall grain stack.It is both a nest of love and a tomb of love. Yes, he regretted it when he was hung up by the rope, but it was too late. The fifth child, the gluttonous fifth child, almost became their "accomplice".He played the role of threading the needle and adding fuel to the flames, and his interests were just a piece of candy.This old five, his positivity contains "sugar".At that time, he was only seven years old, and he was a monkey and a monkey, and he was everywhere.Just because of that piece of candy, he was so daring, a little guy, he actually broke into the house of Party Secretary Guodou!He stood in front of Guodou's courtyard, dragging his cracked shoes, running two tubes of clear water, and said like a mosquito, "Is anyone there?" Nobody paid any attention to him, maybe they didn't hear him.So, he raised his voice and said in an adult tone: "Is anyone there?" Immediately, someone in the room replied: "Who is it?" Saying so, Da Baitao walked out of the room in a stately manner.Da Baitao stood in the yard, glanced outside the door, and said, "Who is it?" At this moment, the courtyard door creaked softly, and a little figure like a trailer came in slowly.Da Baitao looked at him in astonishment and a little surprise.Before he could ask any questions, the fifth child called out. He didn't know what to call her, but he was smart. Seeing that she was white and rich, he called, "Bai Concubine..." Da Baitao laughed when she heard it, and said "This child." The fifth child said, "Bai Jinzi, someone is looking for Sister Hanxiang." Da Baitao froze for a moment, and asked very vigilantly, "Who is looking for my Hanxiang?" The fifth child began to lie, and the fifth child said "A passerby." Da Baitao said, "A passerby?!" The fifth child said slowly, "A passerby, riding a new rickshaw, the bell can ring..." Dabaitao said, "A passerby!" Why is he looking for Hanxiang?" The fifth child said: "A passerby rides a new foreign car, and the bell can ring. He said, ask me to send a message to sister Hanxiang..." Da Baitao once again Surprised: "You? What are you talking about?!" The fifth child said: "Let her go to the school for a meeting..." At this time, Da Baitao said "Oh", of course she knew that at that time, Only the cadres in the county, or someone from the middle school in the town, will have new "foreign cars" to ride.Da Baitao finally believed her, she said: "I, Han Xiang, is not at home, Han Xiang went to Dongtou school to push the cart." At this time, the fifth child was very disappointed and said: "Well, concubine Bai, I'm leaving. "

The fifth child is still unwilling to eat candy.So, he "dragged, dragged, dragged" and ran to the elementary school at the east end of the village.At school, he finally found out Liu Hanxiang's whereabouts. It turned out that Liu Hanxiang had gone to the city.She borrowed the primary school principal's bicycle and went to the county town to buy cloth. At dusk, the gluttonous fifth boy finally waited for Liu Hanxiang to come back.He stood at the entrance of the village, like a "long-necked old guard", looking up at the dirt road leading to the county.In the sunset at the entrance of the village, Liu Hanxiang's face turned red all of a sudden. She jumped out of the car and asked, "What are you doing?"

The old fifth was not ashamed and said, "I'm waiting for you." Liu Hanxiang took out a bag of candies from his pocket and said with a smile, "Here." The fifth child took the candy but didn't leave, and said in a low voice, "Sister Hanxiang, there are tomatoes in the grain stack." Liu Hanxiang said, "Tomato?" The fifth child proudly said, "Tomato. I hid it there." Liu Hanxiang didn't understand, she just said "Oh". The fifth child went on to say, "My brother asked me to tell you that there are tomatoes in the grain stack."

Liu Hanxiang said, "Your brother said that?" The fifth child continued to make up a lie and said, "My brother said, there are tomatoes in the grain stacks after dark." Liu Hanxiang said "oh" again, and said, "I see." The fifth elder ordered like a gentleman: "Where is the note? You write a note." Liu Hanxiang blushed and said, "No need to write, I know." Lao Wu refused to leave, but Lao Wu said stubbornly: "You write a note, my brother wants to see your note." Liu Hanxiang hesitated for a moment, then, she took out a pen from her pocket, but couldn't find the paper for a moment, so in a hurry, she simply wrote two words on the palm of Lao Wu's hand: Guduo.

In this way, after dark, he walked step by step towards the "trap" directed by Lao Wu... On the autumn field, a rectangular grain stack is piled high.Just in this grain stack, there is a hidden passage that can be touched sideways.The passage was secretly dug by Lao Wu alone, and it was about four or five meters long.At the end of the passage, there is a small bunk lined with straw that can accommodate two people.Above the bunk, there is a small nest that can be reached out, and this is where Lao Wu hides his secrets.It is in this small nest that hides eight rotten tomatoes. It was a night without words.In the grain stack, when his and her eyes collided, the first moon was white and the wind was clear outside the grain stack, but it was pitch black and numb in the grain stack... There was no words, not a single word.The two of them lost their sense of control immediately, and felt that sweat was pouring down like rain, and there were countless water worms swimming on their bodies.The mouth, hands, and tongue are so busy!All parts of the body screamed in unison, like an army in disarray, the army, divisions, brigades, and regiments all went in the wrong direction, just surging, rushing, heaving, and jumping in the dark without order!In the dampness of sweat, the fragrance of grain and grass mixed with the fishy fragrance of youth mixed a small bun into a pot of rice made of meat!That happiness is contained in the fishy fragrance, contained in a dizzy reckless movement, contained in a trace of fear and uneasiness.How moist that happiness is, how, how "surprised", "surprised" by a touch, "surprised" made of water!Crazy, at such a moment, people are very easy to go crazy, people say they are crazy, they are crazy!Once people hide, the two of them are like a mill, a complete mill, a man and a woman can grind out the whole world... Don't care about the world, gods, ghosts, white beans, black beans, soybeans, mung beans It's still Guodou, go to hell, death is worth it!

...Shusha, suddenly there is a ray of light! The light came in from the passage, and it was obvious that someone had removed the straw bales blocking the crenel.In a thought, Jiachang froze.The chill suddenly came from his heart, and it reached the ends of his hair in a short time. His hair stood up one by one, and the sweat on his body was completely collected. The voice of the hammer: "Come out, I've been hanging you for a long time!" Only then did he see the tomatoes hidden in the nest, they were eight rotten tomatoes!In the dark, the tomatoes are gorgeous, like a cluster of ecstatic will-o'-the-wisps!

It's too late.When Feng Jiachang walked out from the grain pile, even the moonlight became his enemy.It was an autumn night beaten by frost, the autumn field was cool, the moonlight was cool, and people's hearts were also cool.Under the moonlight, he has nowhere to hide!The national bean in his coat stood upright, and behind him stood several basic militiamen from the village! Party secretary Liu Guodou was probably mad because he didn't think that "a toad dares to eat swan meat"!The pockmarks on his face exploded one by one, like an overturned and burnt pomegranate peel, or like a piece of black iron that was shattered by bird bombs!He stood there, gritting his teeth loudly. After a long time, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and squeezed out two words from the gap between his teeth: "—Let him!"

That was the cruelest moment. Those basic militiamen, those 20-year-old idiots, and those masters who had "starved" Liu Hanxiang so many times in their eyes, all focused their hatred on him.They tentatively think that it is "a flower stuck in cow dung", what a "cow dung" he is!So, those who grabbed their heads, those who tripped their legs, and those who took black-hearted hammers, all of them were ruthless!When you twist your arm, it's like breaking corn on the cob in a field—click, click!In an instant, he was tied up into a meat dumpling made by himself! At this time, the informer Tonghammer, who was as fat as a stone roller, bared his front teeth and spat on his face three times in succession: "Bah! Bah!——Bah!" He said, "Dog!" Damn, how dare you? Are you worthy?!"

After that, he was hung on the old elm tree on the sidelines.At this time, he became a "living swing".Those "cores" took turns "Qiu" to come up to tease him!How brave they are at this moment!They rushed up one by one like tigers and wolves, grabbed his hair, stepped on his stomach, pinched his bones, charged and swung out again and again, and came back crookedly "autumn"...he was like a spinning top Spinning in the air, hitting the tree trunk again and again! However, he didn't feel too much pain, he was so numb that he didn't feel any pain.He just felt humiliated and ashamed to face others. In this village, would he still have face to face others? !

After a while, his father was called.The old uncle was blown into the yard like fallen leaves.He stood in front of Guodou tremblingly, and said in horror: "What's the matter? God, what's the matter?!" At this time, Secretary Guodou had become extremely calm, and he said: "Old uncle, don't say that you are single anymore, you are bullying me..." The old uncle begged: "Guo Dou, my son is young and ignorant, so please spare him." Guodou said: "This is riding on my head and shit! This is grabbing my eyebrows and spinning around! No matter how blind I am, I have to ask. What do you think?"

The old uncle said: "Guo Dou, don't look at the face of the monk but the face of the Buddha. Your old sister left early, and the children are useless... You should be beaten and scolded..." Guodou shook his head and said, "It's too arrogant! I can't swallow this... In this village, no one dares to do this to me. Old uncle, I don't rub the sand in my eyes." The old uncle stammered, "Then what do you say...?" Immediately, Guodou's face was covered with black mist!The black air covered his face, filling every pit of his face.After a long time, he said: "I don't want anything else, just cut off his legs—tell him to stand up and crawl back!" At this time, the field fell silent.No one spoke, no one said a word.His father stood there like a chaff, and suddenly, his legs bent and he knelt down in front of Guodou.He knelt there and said: "Guo Dou, cut me off, I have no way to teach my son. The baby's road is long, leave a leg for the baby, he still has to walk." Guo Dou let out a heavy "hum" in his nose, which was extremely contemptuous.It was this "hmph" that made the "background" all excited and ready to move. Some people said, where is the axe?Go get the ax! Ye Lan filled the valley field, and the night air was getting heavier and heavier.Feng Jiachang, who was hanging on the tree, began to tremble, his heart was so cold that the involuntary trembling even "sieved" a fallen leaf! At this time, Da Baitao appeared.She quietly came out from behind the grain stack and said, "Come here." This voice is naturally familiar to Guodou.When others were still in a daze, Guodou turned his head away and said impatiently, "What are you doing?!" "You come." Da Baitao became even more impatient, and after she finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the grain stack. Guodou hesitated for a moment, and finally, he slowly, like a trailer, walked towards the grain stack step by step... No one knows what happened behind the grain ricks.Liu Hanxiang also never came out.After a long, long time, when Guodou swayed out again, his big body actually hunched down, and his gait was a little staggering. Standing on the gray valley field, he coughed hastily and said, "Let it go!" he." In the second half of the night, only their father and son were left in the valley field.At this time, the night became denser and thicker, so thick that the face of the person on the other side could not be seen clearly.Father had been kneeling all the time. Father had been kneeling for so long. Finally, he stood up and said a word.The father's words seemed to come down from the sky, and the father said: "Jiachang, you go. The farther you go, the better." But, he knew, of course he knew, it was Liu Hanxiang who saved him.
