Chapter 6 -2

In the mysterious cold noodle restaurant at noon, I deliberately showed this article to Liang Yingwu.Now as long as he is nearby at noon, he will go to the mysterious cold noodle restaurant to eat cold noodles. "It's the first time I've seen this research result." Liang Yingwu said after reading it. "No way, with your energy, you can't receive this research result at the first time?" Liang Yingwu shook his head: "Thousands of research groups in the world publish various research results almost every day, but there is still a long way to go from the research results to the mainstream of the academic world. Lu Li, a large number of incorrect research results will be screened out, and often correct results will also be temporarily screened out, so it is normal that our genetics research institute does not take this result seriously."

"However, I think that if a person's genes are proven to be able to change in childhood, perhaps in special circumstances, they can also change in adulthood, without the need for virus invasion, but only with a certain environment." "Then what do you want to say? Six ears have changed their genes under certain circumstances?" Liang Yingwu asked me back. "This..." I was stopped by Liang Yingwu, so I had to laugh and say, "It's just a new idea, and I didn't say it was like that. I was thinking, if the genetic way doesn't work, is there any other way to go?" .”

"In terms of genetics, although the hair test results you provided for the second time have not come out, as far as I know, there seems to be something wrong." I cheered up all of a sudden: "Are there any genetic differences from normal people? You already know why the results haven't come out yet?" "Let's do a homogeneity comparison with the abnormal part of the six ears. The final results should come out in these two days." "Ah, I thought that if it's a genetic problem, it's mostly due to his father, Zhang Jinlong." "Well, let's wait for the results to come out before drawing conclusions."

The next night, we knocked on the door of Zhang Wuyin's house. Zhang Wuyin lived alone, which Wang Maoyuan had told us before. He also said that Zhang Wuyin had divorced very early and had been living alone for many years doing academic research.It is estimated that we are afraid that we should ask questions that we should not ask. I was a little depressed. Could it be that Lao Wang had the impression that he was so talkative, did I ask anything I shouldn’t have asked at his house? Well, it seems that I specifically asked him about Zhang Wuyin’s story. Zhang Wuyin is slightly fat, with thick and short eyebrows, piercing eyes, concise and forceful speech, giving people a neutral feeling.She gave us two cans of Coke, then sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette, took a sip, and asked, "Do you smoke?"

"No." We shook our heads together. "If you don't smoke, you have to smoke, either first-hand smoke or second-hand smoke." Zhang Wuyin said.It happened that she didn't smile at all when she said this should be a joke, which made Liu Er and I didn't know what to say. "Old Wang said that you two little devils are extremely curious, and asked me to receive him. It seems that you are quite interested in him. Well, then you just listen." "Oh." Liu Er and I agreed. "In 1981, I was still working as a gynecologist in Ruijin Hospital. At the same time, I just tried to do women's psychological counseling. As a result, I found that since early summer, some women began to consult me ​​about frigidity. Chinese women are very conservative. Yes, and women are mostly in a passive position in sexual behavior, so those who come to consult this kind of problem are actually quite serious. After a period of time, some people began to have atrophy of reproductive organs, and at the same time, the gynecology department of Ruijin Hospital also began to contact with this kind of problem. These patients all start with frigidity. A psychological problem will develop into a serious physical problem, which is quite valuable for me to study. Coupled with other reasons, I take this as my own research Project, start to focus on and research."

"Can I ask, what is the 'other reason' you mentioned?" I asked.I don't know if this reason is related to the "4.23" case. Zhang Wuyin looked at me and said, "The other reason is that I am also one of the patients." I shut my mouth tightly, and Zhang Wuyin said it indifferently, but it made me quite embarrassed.It seems that Wang Maoyuan's worried "asking what shouldn't be asked" still happened. "After I studied for a period of time, I found that this kind of disease has no precursors in psychology and physiology, and it is sudden. At the same time, in the exchange of letters with friends and classmates, I gradually learned that this kind of disease has appeared in many provinces and cities in the south. The patients are not alone in Shanghai. The patients appeared in the late spring or early summer of 1981, and earlier in the southernmost provinces, such as Guangdong and Fujian. Judging from the unity of time, it looks like some kind of epidemic disease , but the virus could not be detected in the patient's body. After the summer of 1982, the new patients became less and less, and the old patients began to improve at a very slow speed. Of course, it is difficult for the atrophied reproductive organs to fully recover. In addition, I suspect that men of the same period also suffered from such diseases, but most of these patients were treated as impotence."

Zhang Wuyin is just right.After smoking the cigarette, he threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray and asked, "Okay, the story is over, what else do you want to ask?" Liu Er took out a piece of paper with a picture of three rabbits on it, and handed it to Zhang Wuyin: "Have you seen this picture before?" As soon as Zhang Wuyin took the picture, he said "um", but he didn't know what the meaning contained in this sound. "Is it a trademark?" Zhang Wuyin said after looking at it for a while. "trademark?" "Underwear brand, if I remember correctly, it's called Three Rabbits."

"Three Rabbit underwear?" This is a completely unexpected answer. Hell, I even guessed it was a totem of some cult.Underwear logo? That's a really bad joke. "This brand is gone now. It was popular for a while in the early 1980s. It was not particularly durable, but it took the low-priced route and even sold it in Shanghai. You know, at that time, Shanghai's clothes were sold all over the country. .But it disappeared soon, and I can’t see it anymore, and I don’t know why.” We only stayed at Zhang's house for less than half an hour, but we gained a lot.Before I got home, I hurriedly called Wang Maoyuan.

"Old Wang, I have made a breakthrough." As soon as the words came out, I didn't feel right. Why did I leak "Old Wang"? It was just casually said by Liu Er in private, and it was right to call him "Old Wang" in person. . Fortunately, Wang Maoyuan didn't care, because his voice was also very excited: "You have made progress too? I also have important clues here. But you go first." "You also have a clue? I guess it's the same as mine, Three Rabbit brand underwear?" "How did you find the Three Rabbit brand underwear? It can't be... No way, those frigid patients also wear this brand of underwear?" Wang Maoyuan was very surprised.

"I'm not sure about this, but it's possible, because... Zhang Wuyin passed through it himself." "Ah? Oh..." Wang Maoyuan made several interjections, "She even told you this?" "This, Mr. Zhang is more straightforward." I had to say this. "She really looks like a man. There is one more thing you must not know. I learned from the Textile Association that this brand of underwear began to be produced at the end of August. By the spring and summer of 1981, it had been sold to many provinces and cities across the country. The provinces and cities where the Three Rabbit underwear was sold and the provinces and cities where the mass rapes occurred completely coincided."

"Complete coincidence?!" I exclaimed. The six ears next to me quickly asked me what was going on, and I simply told him.He also looked surprised. "In this way, it also completely coincides with the provinces and cities where frigidity occurs." I said. "Yes. I don't know why this factory stopped producing underwear of this brand in the summer of 1982. Now the factory is still in business, processing and exporting garments. The underwear of this brand is very strange. Chang once." "Where are you going?" I thought I had heard wrong. "Shunchang, that factory is in Shunchang, Fujian." Why did everything turn back to Shunchang? "Do you want to go with me?" Wang Maoyuan asked. Do you want to go? I have been to Shunchang twice this year. "Okay, I'll try my best to ask for leave." I quickly decided that a curious man is doomed to work hard, and Liu Er must find out what's going on. "Also, why did you go in private name, no one from the criminal investigation team?" "Of course not. No matter what happened at the beginning, the prosecution period has passed and the case has been closed. It is impossible and unnecessary to make any more disturbances with so many people shot and sentenced. I just go to untangle myself Years of confusion." "The test results of You Fang's hair came out, and the genetic difference with normal people is 0.1%." I was about to leave for Shunchang in the evening, but I received a call from Liang Yingwu in the afternoon. I couldn't make it clear on the phone, he had another class in the afternoon, so I had to go to school to find him. Liang Yingwu and I sat on a stone bench under the shade of a tree, and students who came and went greeted Liang Yingwu from time to time. It seemed that he was quite successful as a teacher. "Only 0.17%? So little difference?" I asked. "For ordinary people, this kind of genetic difference has exceeded the upper limit by a lot. Although it can't explain why the mother's difference is 0.17%, and the son's difference is 2.7%, but don't forget that the second test result is already higher than the first time. 0.3% more, it can be seen that this difference will develop." "It will develop? Didn't you just express your disdain for the research results that the acquired environment can affect genes a few days ago? "How can I be dismissive? Why do you always like to take words out of context when you are a reporter? It's sensational." I choked on Liang Yingwu's words and hummed. "Furthermore, the reason why You Hong's genes keep changing is not clear, and it's hard to say that it must be an acquired reason. Remember what I told you last time, the mutated part of You Hong's genes is basically something that has never been seen before. arrangement?" "Remember." "After comparing the genes of You Fang and You Hong, the research institute found that more than 70% of You Fang's genetic variation was found in her son's genetic variation." "70% of the genetic variation?......." I'm not very good at math, and I'm trying to convert it. "That is to say, taking You Hong's 2.7% mutation as the overall base, 4.4% of it is directly inherited from his mother's genes." "It can be confirmed that the two are related, right? It sounds like You Fang left a seed in her son's gene. Now the seed has germinated and grown." "Interesting metaphor. By the way, is there a time for you to go to Shunchang?" "It's tonight. After I come back, I will find a way to persuade You Fang to conduct a comprehensive examination. For the sake of her son, I don't think she will mind these. I hope to find a cure from her." "Are you still thinking about curing You Hong? Didn't I tell you not to have any hope?" I smiled wryly: "I know you only want to contribute to the development of human genetics, but I still have to think about my friends, right?" "I'm quite concerned about your trip to Shunchang this time. I didn't expect a underwear brand to cause such a big mess. Although you may find something in Shunchang, I think the problem still lies in the picture of the three rabbits. . " said Liang Yingwu. "I think so too. Since there are professional organizations that have confirmed that the Three Rabbits will have a psychological impact on people with abstinence, it is logical to cause sexual frigidity, but it is too exaggerated to cause reproductive organ atrophy. But how could it be related to sexual desire? Having sex with exuberant **** criminals, it confuses me." "It's not impossible that the same thing can produce two extreme effects, but under what circumstances..." Liang Yingwu thought for a while, and then said, "Also, underwear is a sticker Wearing, that is to say, people who wear underwear don't often see the logo pattern on underwear, so how are they affected? If you make a major discovery this time, I think X agency will also take action. " "Why do I feel like your weathervane, touchstone?" "Just a little attention." "It has been several times, and I have become your advance team. Salary, I demand salary!" I shouted dissatisfied. "Oh, do you really want it?" Liang Yingwu smiled and looked at me with interest. "Uh... let's forget about it." It's better to be free if you are short of others. "One thing you have to think about." Liang Yingwu suddenly became serious. "what?" A large number of prostitutes and sexual frigidity groups that appeared 23 years ago have actually caused serious social problems. If this is a premeditated action, the goal to be achieved by using such an astonishingly short-handed method is inevitable. It will also be shocking, although so many years have passed, there is no guarantee that you will go here without danger, so be careful." "Okay, I've been out for so long, how can I not read Feng Shui?" Saying this, my heart was a little hot. On the train, Wang Maoyuan said another clue he got from the Textile Association: Santu brand underwear often uses dyes to print the pattern of Santu on underwear. underwear, was ordered to stop using. Not long after the ban was issued, the production of Santu underwear was discontinued. Wang Maoyuan was puzzled by this. Logically speaking, it is impossible for a factory that has achieved such achievements to stop the entire brand because of this. Wouldn’t it be enough to not use this dye? Look The real reason has been investigated by Shunchang. Wang Maoyuan's clue has been a source of light for me who has been perplexed by the question of "how does the picture of three rabbits on underwear affect the person who wears it?" The way people feel is not limited to vision, and the picture of three rabbits can affect people's senses through vision. Mental psychology, perhaps through other ways of feeling. The dye is harmful to the skin, in other words, the human skin will feel and respond to this dye, if the pattern of three rabbits is printed with this dye, the human skin will be able to Feel the three rabbits In addition, Wang Maoyuan said something that surprised me after listening to my detailed account of the visit to Zhang Wuyin. At that time, Zhang Wuyin said that frigidity is not limited to women, men also have it, but most of them think it is impotence. Wang Maoyuan yelled "Ah", and said: "In this way, it is not only the male criminals who will be dazzled by their own desires, maybe there are also females." I immediately felt that it made sense: "Women, indeed, they are quite concealed in this respect. Well, when a man can't bear it, he becomes a sex offender, and when a woman can't bear it, she can't rape a man." " But it is much more convenient for women to seduce men, besides, they can still..." Wang Maoyuan stopped here, but we all know what he meant.My heart moved, and I looked at Liu Er beside me. He was staring straight at Wang Maoyuan. It shouldn't be such a coincidence, right? But when I got back to Shanghai, I still went to ask You Fang if she had ever worn Santu brand underwear. When he arrived in Shunchang, Wang Maoyuan called a taxi. I already know that the original underwear factory is now called Jingyi Garment Company, and it was called Santu Underwear Factory back then. The former legal representative was named Yang and Delin. When I got in the car, I was about to talk about going to Jingyi Company, when Wang Maoyuan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, spoke first: "Is the master a local?" "That is, I have been in Shunchang for more than 40 years. Tell me where you want to go, and I will never make detours for you. Now Shunchang is going to build a tourist city, and we who pull the car can't discredit Shunchang." "It's not busy. I haven't been here for many years. It's been more than 20 years. You can drive as you like, but drive slowly. I'll take a look at the city." I looked at Liu Er, and I didn't know what kind of tricks Wang Maoyuan was up to. He must have his own tricks from the public security system. Let's watch slowly, and don't spoil his affairs by interfering indiscriminately. The driver was a middle-aged man, he should be in his forties from what he said just now, and now he grinned: "Okay, just take your time, I will take you to a few commercial streets first. Although a small city cannot be compared with a big city, it has changed a lot over the years. If you haven’t been here for twenty years, you really don’t recognize me. Why, you came here in eight years or so?” The car was driving slowly on the street. I had no interest in the achievements of Shunchang's urban construction, and I just listened to the questions and answers of the two people in front of me. "I came here in 1981, and I came with a friend. My friend has a distant relative who runs a clothing factory. I still remember how many bags of clothes were sent when I left." Wang Maoyuan chuckled, "Guess what?" What clothes are they?" I thought to myself that this old man was really pretending. The driver responded, "What?" "Underwear is all underwear." Wang Maoyuan smiled. "The underwear factory in 1981? Don't you mean the lean factory?" the driver said. "Lean? It's called Lean. When you get old, you can't even remember it." Old fox, old fox, I screamed in my heart. "It's called Jingyi now, but it was called Santu back then." "That's right, Three Rabbits, Three Rabbits, no wonder I heard you say that Jing Yi felt something was wrong, why did you change the name?" "Yo, you don't know?" the driver said. "I don't know. What's the matter? My friend went to the United States in 1982 and never came back. He also lost contact with this distant relative. No, knowing that I will come to Shunchang again, he specifically asked me to take a look at the factory back then. Chang Yang Delin, I even bought presents in Shanghai." "It's not called Santu for a long time. It happened in 1982. After that year, Yang Delin was no longer the factory director, and the factory has been replaced by someone else." "What's going on? I still want to go to the factory to find Yang Delin Well, how do people find it now?" "It's a long story. If you go to the street to ask Santu Factory now, either the young people don't know, or they won't tell you what they know. Now we old Shunchang people have a tacit understanding. That is to say no more about the Three Rabbit brand underwear. Speaking of which, the underwear factory was still the mainstay of the local economy back then.” "Why can't you mention it?" I pricked up my ears and listened.It seems that something happened back then "It's not impossible to mention it. Didn't I just say that Shunchang wants to develop a tourism economy?" "Yeah, does that matter too?" "It's related. Do you know that Shunchang is the hometown of Monkey King, Monkey King?" "Is there such a thing? I don't seem to know." The driver turned his head and glanced at Wang Maoyuan: "Let me tell you, you are old and you have to care about the news. How big was the incident at the Tomb of the Two Saints a while ago, how many TV stations and newspapers sent reporters here? Don't say anything else , In my car, dozens of reporters have been in it.” Wang Maoyuan just laughed. "There is a peak in Baoshan here called Nantianmen. On the top there is a temple called Shuangsheng Temple. It has a history of hundreds of years. Inside it are enshrined the signs of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven and the Great Sage Tongtian. These two brothers are our Shunchang People." The driver said proudly. Let’s just say that the picture of the three rabbits is also found in the Shuangsheng Temple. Some time ago, British experts came to study it.The pattern in the temple is the same as the pattern of the previous Santu underwear trademark. Yang Delin must have been to the Shuangsheng Temple at that time. Seeing the magic of this picture, he used it as the brand pattern.But if we now tell people that the most divine picture of the three rabbits in the Shuangsheng Temple used to be a pattern of an underwear brand, what is it called? It will damage the image. " I remembered that the last time I came to Shunchang for an interview, when Zhang Ting from the County Cultural Bureau talked about the Three Rabbits, I always felt that he hadn’t finished his words, so that’s what happened.Turning his head, he saw Liu Er's hands were always gesturing on his legs, and he didn't know what he was thinking.Seeing my attention, Liu Er smiled, stopped his hand, and put it on his lap safely. "It's far away. I was young when the Santu Factory changed its name, so I didn't know it too well. I heard that there was a conflict in the factory, and Yang Delin couldn't hold it back, so the county changed people." ''But at that time, the Three Rabbit brand underwear was very popular, and it didn't matter if you changed the brand. Did you still make underwear later?" "I didn't do it later. You said that I have thought about this issue, and it is reasonable to say how much money the Santu Factory made for the county every year. I heard... I heard..." The driver hesitated to speak. "Say what?" "I heard that there is evil in that factory, and that's just what I heard." "What kind of evil?". "I don't know the specifics. I thought to myself that the picture of the three rabbits is something engraved in the Shuangsheng Temple. It is so casually used on clothes, or underwear, and there are such pictures on underwear and bras... Hehe, ghosts and gods Things, it’s hard to say, if there is a great saint, can you be happy?” "This..." Wang Maoyuan smiled wryly, "That's true." "Are you looking for Yang Delin?" the driver asked. "yes." "As for this factory, it changed its name and location, and it moved there six or seven years ago. It's hard to say how many people remember Yang Delin when you go there. But, I, old Shunchang, know that he lives there. Which village?" The driver turned his head and smiled at Wang Maoyuan. This is for business. "How far is it from here?" "Thirty to forty kilometers. The taxi here is cheap, and it doesn't cost a lot of money. Don't worry, I will never detour you." "Okay, let's go, but you have to be responsible for sending us to his house when you get to the village." "No problem, just go to the place and ask. I won't charge you if his house is not there. But if Yang Delin is not here, don't blame me." "Okay, as long as you go to his house, I will give you the fare if you are there or not." As soon as the driver stepped on the accelerator, the originally slow car rushed out. Wang Maoyuan turned around and smiled at us. I gave him a thumbs up and shook it.Three quarters of an hour later, the car stopped in front of a two-story building. "The Yang family is here." The driver said.He had already got off the car and asked several people in the village. The fare was seventy-eight yuan, including what he got out of his mouth, it was definitely worth it.I rushed ahead of Wang Maoyuan and paid the car fare. After getting out of the car, the driver shook hands with us and drove away in a hurry.But his last expression was a bit strange. "Old Wang, I really have you." I said. "In a small county like this, the taxi driver knows best what to ask. But I didn't expect that he could bring us here directly." Six ears had already rang the doorbell. "Who is it?" A woman's voice came from inside. "We're looking for Yang Delin." "Who are you looking for?" "Yang Delin." I said loudly. The door creaked open, revealing the face of a typical middle-aged rural working woman.She frowned, stared at us, and asked: "Who are you looking for?" Could it be wrong? I thought to myself, and said again: "We are looking for Yang Delin." "Looking for him, what is your relationship with him?" The woman had no intention of opening the door wider. This time, you can't gossip about relatives like you did to the driver just now, otherwise Yang Delin will have to expose it as soon as he shows up. I was thinking of words, and Wang Maoyuan had already taken out his ID and handed it over. "We're from Shanghai. I'm from the criminal police team. I'll ask Yang Delin for some information." I secretly called "Okay" in my heart.It was so straightforward that the other party couldn't refuse.Once the sign of the criminal police team is displayed, how many people can resist it? Although he was a little worried about scaring the snake, Wang Maoyuan must have thought it through.It will still be the same as in the car just now, just listen to what he has to say. The woman glanced at the certificate, returned it to Wang Maoyuan, frowned and said, "You don't know, did Yang Delin die in a car accident last year?" died? I immediately knew what the driver's strange look at the end meant.When he got out of the car to ask for directions, someone must have told him that Yang Delin was dead.He dared not tell us without telling us, for fear that we would pay his fare. "I'm his wife." The woman said and opened the door completely, "Let's go in if you have anything to say." No wonder she watched the door so tightly just now.Isn't it strange that a few men suddenly come to your door after your husband died a year ago? We sat down in the living room on the first floor, and the woman poured us tea.The furnishings in the house are like those of ordinary richer peasant families, not very luxurious. "My husband had an accident on February 16 last year when he was driving to his new home in the city, and died on the way to the hospital. I said the village is good, why do I have to live in the city? He just didn't listen. His this Human nature is so stubborn, like a cow, no one can pull it." A sad look appeared on the woman's face. "What do you want from him?" "You know the picture of three rabbits, right?" "of course I know." "A professional research institution has conducted research on this kind of picture. The results show that looking at this kind of picture for a long time will have a bad effect on people's emotions. And your husband once used this kind of picture as a trademark for underwear, although two years have passed. More than ten years, but we suspect that there have been some Three Rabbit underwear users who have been adversely affected. So sent me to investigate." "Ah, there is such a thing?" The woman looked a little at a loss, "But Delin is dead." "Don't worry, I'm just here to understand the situation. There is no other meaning to prevent this kind of thing from happening again. After all, this kind of underwear has been discontinued for a long time, and we will not settle the old score." Wang Maoyuan comforted her. oh oh. ” said the woman Nuonuo. "How did Yang Delin come up with the idea of ​​using this pattern as an underwear brand, do you know?" "He liked this pattern since he was a child, and was elected as the factory director by the village. He used this picture of the three rabbits because he always liked it. He was fascinated by it. Later, the three rabbit underwear became popular, and he said to me, look, This picture is truly divine." "So, Yang Delin knew the magic of the Three Rabbits very early?" "He thinks it's something left by the gods, and it's full of fairy spirit. It's okay to always hold that precious stone and tell me, it's painted by the gods with their fingers." "What stone?" Wang Maoyuan frowned.The woman talked nonstop. "A big stone engraved with a picture of three rabbits, according to him, came out of the fairy cave. I didn't know him at that time, so I don't know exactly where it happened." "Immortal Cave?" Unexpectedly, Yang Delin didn't see the picture of three rabbits in the Shuangsheng Temple. "It's the place called Eight Immortals Cave now." "Eight Immortals Cave?" I remembered, "Is it under the Nantianmen Cliff, behind the waterfall? Aren't there eight caves there? Which one is it?" "I don't know which one, but it should be the deepest one." "Do you know the Eight Immortals Cave?" Wang Maoyuan asked me. "I came here to interview the Tomb of the Two Saints. The Cave of the Eight Immortals and the Tomb of the Two Saints are on the same mountain. It is said that there is a deep hole, and no one has ever gone to the bottom." "Has Yang Delin been to the innermost place? What's there?" Wang Maoyuan asked the woman. "I don't know if he got into the innermost part or not, but he said that there are many stones carved with pictures of three rabbits in the cave, and the deeper you go, the more there will be. He always liked to go there to play when he was a child, but then there was an earthquake, The passage in the cave was blocked. He read this picture, and managed to get a piece out of it. It was really a big piece, and I don’t know how he called a few little brothers to get it together. Now I can’t go into the cave. After Yang Delin took out the stone, he broke the iron chain hanging from the cliff. He said that the earthquake might be because the cave owner was unhappy, so he simply broke the iron chain, and no one bothered him anymore." "What about the stone? Let me see." Wang Maoyuan said. "The stone is gone." The woman's eyes turned red, "Yang Delin just wanted to move his precious stone to his new home, so he got into a car accident on the road. Everyone died, and the stone flew on the road, so I didn't bother to move it. Come back. But I know where the stone is now." "Is it the Shuangsheng Temple?" I said suddenly. "You know about this?" The woman gave me a surprised look. "I heard from the County Cultural Bureau that the big stone in the Shuangsheng Temple was picked up from the side of the county road last year. I guessed it from what you said." "Yeah, that's the one. Let it lie in the Temple of the Two Holy Ones." The woman sighed. "A tour guide also told me that the picture of the three rabbits on the rock was drawn by the Monkey King with his fingers. I didn't expect it to be something that Yang Delin had been hiding all along." in vain. "Yang Delin has only been hiding for decades, maybe it was painted by Sun Dasheng, who knows." The woman said. "The notches on that stone really look like they were drawn by fingers." I turned my head and smiled at Wang Maoyuan. Wang Maoyuan didn't show any surprise, I don't think he took it to heart at all, maybe in his mind, it's just that the carving is more detailed. "So, Yang Delin never entered the cave again?" "The earthquake blocked the inside of the cave, and the iron chain was broken, so he couldn't go there even if he wanted to. He just likes to think about the picture of the three rabbits. Sometimes it takes an hour to look at it. It's really addictive." "Because of addiction, the underwear is also called Santu, and you use the picture?" "That's right. I still remember that when he rubbed himself off the stone, he was careful not to damage the stone." When Wang Maoyuan looked at us, he thought that there might be something wrong with using the picture of three rabbits to make underwear, but now it seems that it is so simple. "But Santu brand underwear has been in business for two years, why did it stop suddenly?" Wang Maoyuan continued to ask. "It's not caused by those people in the factory." The woman said bitterly. "Those people in the factory? What's going on?" "They..." The woman showed a little confusion and hesitated, as if what she was about to say made her feel embarrassed. Wang Maoyuan put on a serious face: "Although I'm just here to find out the situation, the premise is that you must answer honestly, tell what you know, and you can't hide it from the public security organs!" The four Wang Maoyuan of "public security organ" deliberately used accents. "I'm not trying to hide anything." The woman was a little panicked when she heard that the police had brought her out. "It's true, what happened in the factory at that time was indeed a bit weird." "It doesn't matter, as long as you tell the truth." "It was fine when the factory was small at the beginning, but then the sales volume increased suddenly, and the number of female workers in the factory increased from a few dozen at the beginning to one or two hundred, and then to five or six hundred. The nearby workers are very Low, most of the female workers are at home during the slack season, and they are also idle when they are idle. Six or seven yuan a month is very satisfying, so everyone is willing to come to the factory. At most, there were more than 1,000 female workers. There are too many people, and the factory is a bit weird. I often go to the factory, where..." The woman stopped and took a deep breath. "It stands to reason that they were all women from the fields. Many of them were neighbors in the village. They knew each other. It's normal to talk and talk at work. But in fact, in the workshop of thousands of square meters, the only sound of sewing machines is heard. The female workers who have just entered the factory sometimes talk, but after a long time in the factory, they are just like the old workers. They only focus on making clothes and don’t talk. The atmosphere is really scary.” The most common function of the picture of the three rabbits is to make people calm, and when many people are together, the emotions will be contagious. I can understand the silent atmosphere in the workshop of the three rabbits factory.However, as a person involved, you may not feel it in the factory, and you will feel strange in retrospect if you leave this atmosphere.And when others go to the workshop by chance, they will feel even more weird. "At first, the factory was relatively quiet, and the workers didn't feel anything. But gradually, some women stopped talking when they returned home, and the husbands were not too happy. What's more, the couple, the couple..." The woman He hesitated, not knowing what to say. "Is it because the life between husband and wife is uncoordinated?" Wang Maoyuan asked. "Yeah, how do you know?" Wang Maoyuan glanced at me, smiled and said nothing. "Those men have been busy in the field for a day, only to find that their women are like logs on the bed." The women no longer have scruples when they see Wang Maoyuan say it, "It is said that there are more than a dozen, and the wives don't let men do that. There was a lot of trouble. At the beginning, Delin said in the factory that the picture of the three rabbits was spiritual. Later, when the clothes sold well, he said that he also had credit for using this picture. But when such a problem happened, someone secretly Li said that this picture can capture the souls of female workers, otherwise the factory is so quiet, and everyone will turn into wooden figures if they go down. He also said that this picture can even capture the souls of people who buy clothes, which is why it sells so well. People in the country believe this, and the more it spreads, the more evil it becomes." The woman's voice was also a little softer, and it seemed that even she didn't believe it outright. "Derlin held several factory-wide meetings at that time, telling everyone not to believe these rumors, and even raised everyone's wages by 50 cents. He wanted to suppress this matter. But soon after, some people got strange diseases and fell ill. There is more than one, I heard that there are two or three, all suffering from the same disease." "What strange disease?" Wang Maoyuan blurted out. "Yes... I don't know the details. Anyway, I stopped menstruating, and the doctor said that I can't have children." I guessed that it must be the total atrophy of reproductive organs that Zhang Wuyin mentioned. "In this way, Delin can't hold back anymore. Everyone in the four villages and eight townships knows that this factory is evil, and men from several families have come to the factory. Also, the deputy director of the second workshop is the most honest woman. , for some reason, she suddenly changed her sex, seduced men everywhere, and was later arrested by the township police station. Everyone said she was possessed by evil spirits. After the Chinese New Year in 1982, the number of people coming to work in the factory dropped by more than half. I dare not come anymore, even the female workers who come here often miss work without reason. The county and the township have come to care about such a large factory. It seems that in March, the dye used to print the three rabbit pictures was found to be faulty again. , all the accumulated problems broke out all of a sudden, Delin couldn't bear it, so he had no choice but to stop being the director of the factory. The village sent new people to take over, the underwear was no longer made, the trademark was changed, and a lot of work was done to replace the original factory. The female workers were brought back one by one. The Santu Factory has become a lean factory since then.” "It turns out...that's how it is." Wang Maoyuan whispered after hearing the woman talk about the rise and fall of Santu Factory more than 20 years ago. Wang Maoyuan asked some more details, and seeing that the woman couldn't say anything more, he got up and left.It was almost noon, and the woman asked us to have lunch, but we were too embarrassed to bother.
