Chapter 10 Chapter Ten Escape

The wind is blowing from Kuding Mountain.Jin Kui and Wang Kuding, a pair of "crazy men and women" , The head of the kang was pulling the distance, and with the accompaniment of the wind outside the window, they talked about "feelings" quite seriously.Jin Kui has clearly calmed down, although her voice is still weak. "I think you're a pretty good person. It's not that I don't want to live with you, but let me live with a man. At least he has to marry me properly." Wang Kuding said: "Isn't it okay for me to be married to the matchmaker? Is it okay for me to marry you? I can invite all the people in the village, including the village chief, and I will find a way to borrow money for the marriage!"

Wouldn't it be nice not to let you be wronged? " Jin Kui said: "Not good. Let me marry a man, I have to fall in love with him first. Do you know what falling in love is?" Wang Kuding nodded vigorously: "I know, why don't you know, then let's fall in love, talk about whatever you want." Jin Kui said: "In our city, when dating, the man must be very good to the woman and obey her in everything. After marrying the woman back home, the woman will listen to the man in everything. My parents are Like this, before we got married, my dad listened to my mom in everything, and after we got married, my dad has the final say! We have to talk like this. When we get married, I will listen to you in everything, but we can talk When you are in love, you have to follow me everywhere."

Wang Kuding immediately promised: "Okay, I will follow you and listen to you." Jin Kui immediately verified: "Are you really listening to me?" and threatened again: "If you don't listen to me, I will never die with you. Why don't you kill me now, and then let the police station come again?" Kill you. Anyway, I won't marry you when I get to the underworld." Wang Kuding said: "I listen to you, isn't it okay to listen to you, isn't it okay if I swear to the sky?" Jin Kui nodded solemnly: "Okay then, then I will trust you first. Then I will make a few requirements and test you first."

Wang Kuding was nervous: "What request?" Jin Kui said, "Look, you're scared again when you hear my request." Wang Kuding said: "No, no, you mention it." Jin Kui said: "My first request is that we will discuss matters between the two of us in the future. You are not allowed to call your uncle, aunt, or people from your village. If you ask them to come, I will not be able to accomplish anything." Wang Kuding hesitated: "Then I have no father or mother, so I will be left with my uncle and aunt. I have to...don't call them or call them for anything. Anyway, it's okay if I listen to you before I get married? The second Article?"

Jin Kui rolled his eyes at him: "The second thing. You have to take me into the city and pick out some nice clothes. If I can't wear these clothes, I'll get married, right? Marriage is a major event in a lifetime." Wang Kuding was short of breath: "Going to the city? All the money I saved was spent on you. The county seat is too far away. How much does it cost to go to the city..." Jin Kui glared at him: "I'm not willing to buy clothes for the bride when I get married, so who will marry you? Marriage is complicated for us urbanites, we have to wear several sets of clothes, and we have to rent a motorcade to drive around the city." There are dozens of banquets in a big circle, and you have to go to a photo studio to take wedding photos before the wedding. I don’t want any of these, but you are not willing to take me into the city to pick out two clothes. I will definitely not get married. Well, you might as well kill me now and let the Public Security Bureau kill you..."

Wang Kuding comforted him again and again: "Cheng Chengcheng, I'll take you there, I'll take you there, you have to let me get the money together. How much does it cost to buy clothes?" The morning after reaching an "agreement" with Wang Kuding, Jin Kui woke up, got out of bed and opened the door, only to find that the door was still locked.She looked out the window and saw someone talking in the blacksmith shop downstairs, and then saw Wang Kuding escorting his uncle out of the shop.Then there was the sound of someone going upstairs, the door slammed, and someone unlocked and entered the door.Jin Kui retreated to the bed and pretended to be asleep, looked up to see Wang Kuding coming in, and put breakfast on the bedside.

"Let's eat, I'll get some face wash." Jin Kui sat up and said sternly behind him, "Are you looking for your uncle and aunt again?" Wang Kuding turned around and stammered, "No, no, I'm talking to them about borrowing money." "Borrow money?" "Yeah, I've calculated the money for the wedding. I have to set four or five tables of wine in the village, and I have to go to the city to buy clothes for you. I think, since I'm going to the city, I should take a wedding photo. What? I need to get one or two thousand yuan. I was just about to discuss it with you. Shall we go to the town to buy clothes? The clothes in the town are also very trendy. There is also a photo studio in the town. I asked the village chief. Yes, there is a wedding dress rental in the photo studio in the town. The village head married another wife last year, and the wedding photos were taken in the town. It is a long way to the county town to walk on the mountain road, and you can’t make it back in a day. There is no limit. This time, let’s go to the town to buy it first, pay the money after we get married, and then go shopping in the county, isn’t it good?”

Jin Kui hesitated: "In the town?" Three days later in the morning, Wang Kuding and Jin Kui walked out of the blacksmith's shop, walked to the entrance of the village under the curious eyes of the villagers, and walked towards the town along the mountain road.Wang Kuding always wanted to lean shoulder to shoulder with Jin Kui, but Jin Kui deliberately kept a distance from him. They walked dozens of miles of mountain roads and arrived at the small town at the bottom of the mountain at noon.In Zhenkou, Wang Kuding met two young people from the same village, one tall and one short.The tall young man asked Wang Kuding: Wang Kuding, why did you come to the town, what are you doing here?Wang Kuding said: Buy two clothes and take a photo.

What are you doing here?The short man said: Make a call, my elder sister said in the county to find a job for me, I will make a call and ask.The tall man asked again: Ku Ding, I heard that you married a wife, is this it? Why don't you put wine on the table and tell everyone to drink?Wang Kuding said: I haven't done it yet. Marrying a daughter-in-law is not so simple. You have to buy clothes, take wedding photos, and ask the village chief to set a date... The tall man said: Don't forget to invite us when you have set a date. , let's go to your house and have a good time.The short man immediately teased the tall man: Hey, if you want to make trouble with yourself, find a wife too, why do you want to make trouble with someone else's wife.The tall man said: I am not as rich as Wang Kuding. He can marry such a good-looking wife if he opens a blacksmith shop. If I can’t marry a wife, why don’t I stop making trouble?

They talked all the way into the town and had a simple lunch at a small food stall on the street. After the meal, Wang Kuding yelled loudly: Boss!collect money!The boss came over, and two young people from the same village were also groping for money in their pockets. Wang Kuding generously wanted to pay for them: I treat you, I treat you!The two young men talked politely: how good is this, how good is this... After a few pushes, they agreed.Jin Kui ate this meal absent-mindedly, looking around quietly, unable to find a chance to escape.This small town is not very popular, the streets are abnormally deserted, and there are three strong and strong men around him, so there is almost no chance to take advantage of it.

After dinner, Wang Kuding took Jin Kui to the only post office in the town, and made a phone call with the short young man who accompanied his sister in the county.When the short young man asked his sister about her job search, even Jin Kui, who was listening, could tell that she hadn't said anything. The post office was only twenty meters square, and there was a counter in the middle. Jin Kui tugged on Wang Kuding's sleeve and said, "Hey, I want to call my sister too." Wang Kuding was stunned for a moment, and his face immediately changed: "What are you calling to ask her to come and pick you up?" Jin Kui stuttered as if he was justified: "I... I'll also report that I'm safe, my family must be dying of anxiety." Wang Kuding was not stupid, he put on airs and said: "I promised long ago that I can let you call and take you home in the future, but you must first live with me and have a baby, and it doesn't matter what you do in the future Is it okay?" The two young men came over after making the phone call, analyzing the situation in the county dejectedly, so the conversation between Wang Kuding and Jin Kui stopped.Next, two young people accompanied Wang Kuding and Jin Kui to buy clothes at the market.There are hardly any decent things in the remote market. Next to the market is a photo studio, and there is a gaudy signboard for wedding photography in front of the door.Wang Kuding's two companions went in with them, laughing and watching them try on the dirty wedding dresses in the photo studio, watching them being swayed by the photographer under the spotlight.This photo studio is as small as the post and telecommunications office just now. There is not even a window for lighting in the women's changing room, and there is no way to escape from the front, back, left, and right sides.Wang Kuding was very cooperative when taking pictures, but his movements were still tense and stiff.Jin Kui was busy with her errands, and was repeatedly asked to be enlightened by the photographer, so she leaned her head on the shoulder of her "husband", with a fake smile on her face. The flash flashed, and the smiles of the "bride and groom" were frozen in the middle of the film. After returning from the town to take photos and buy clothes, Wang Kuding cooked dinner. After the meal, Jin Kui took the initiative to wash the dishes.Trembling, he hugged Jin Kui from behind, and Jin Kui was so shocked that Jin Kui smashed a stack of large porcelain bowls stacked aside. When Wang Kuding touched Jin Kui's body, he couldn't control his panting immediately. He hugged Jin Kui with all his strength, put his mouth together and kissed her forcibly.Jin Kui screamed and struggled desperately. This sudden "intimacy" turned into a fierce hand-to-hand fight. Jin Kui's scream was mixed with Wang Kuding's pleading ravings: Wife...wife, you are my wife...Jin Kui Breaking free from his body, he slapped Wang Kuding on the face, beating him for a moment in a daze, Jin Kui took the opportunity to run upstairs, entered the room and blocked the door with his backhand.After plugging it in, Jin Kui began to rummage around the house for self-defense weapons like crazy. When she finally found a pair of scissors, she found that there was no movement outside the door.Holding the scissors in hand, Jin Kui got on the bed and leaned against the corner of the wall, making a desperate gesture.The next thing she heard was a rattling sound, which she recognized as the sound of chains locking the door.She felt relieved and heard Wang Kuding go downstairs. She sat paralyzed on the bed along the corner of the wall, only to realize that she had exhausted all her energy in the short stroke just now. Zhou Xin works as a part-time secretary in Baike Company, and she doesn't always work half a day. When she is required to attend some company meetings to take notes, or when Lu Ziqiang entertains some customers and asks her to come out to socialize, she can't come out in the afternoon, and sometimes she will accompany her to eat. Accompanying drinks will also be late.In such situations, Lu Ziqiang would usually drive her back to her residence, never miss any opportunity to be alone with Zhou Xin, and create opportunities if there is no opportunity, no matter how far-fetched the creation is. Zhou Xin helped Lu Ziqiang print a document that day, and left in the evening, Lu Ziqiang drove her off as usual.When the car arrived downstairs at the apartment, Lu Ziqiang suddenly expressed a little motion sickness, "Do you have any painkillers? I'll take one." Zhou Xin said, "I don't have painkillers." Lu Ziqiang said, "Then I'll go up and have a cup of hot water." Lu Ziqiang and Zhou Xin got out of the car together and walked into the door of the apartment.They took the elevator up, and Zhou Xin had just opened the door of his room when Lu Ziqiang suddenly kissed Zhou Xin forcefully in the small hallway.Before Zhou Xin could react or struggle, Lu Ziqiang had already let her go and walked into the living room first. Lu Ziqiang asked, "When are you leaving?" "Where are you going?" Zhou Xin was still standing in the hallway in a daze. Lu Ziqiang turned around and said lightly, "The Great Wall." Zhou Xin didn't walk into the room slowly from the hall until he was convinced that nothing would happen except that unexpected kiss, and poured a glass of boiling water for Lu Ziqiang.Lu Ziqiang did not sit down to rest, but looked around with his water glass.In every corner of the room, there are piles of random sketches. Lu Ziqiang has seen these sketches before, and they are nothing new. Only a portrait that has just been completed on the easel in the corner of the living room attracts attention.It was a portrait of a young man, handsome and sad.Zhou Xin washed his hands and came out of the bathroom. He saw Lu Ziqiang standing in front of Gao Chun's portrait, examining it for a long time, but his burly back remained motionless. The sun in Kuding Mountain rose as usual, and another day came in turn.Jin Kui curled up on the bed and woke up again, listening to the sound of the door being unlocked, watching Wang Kuding bring the meal into the room, and then hurriedly got up, with sleepy eyes. "Hurry up and eat. After eating, let's go to town." Wang Kuding put down his breakfast, and his attitude was as usual loyal. On Jin Kui's unawakened face, there was a trace of surprise: "Today?...Going to town?" Wang Kuding set out his breakfast and explained awkwardly: "The suits I wore for the photo shoot that day were from a photo studio. They said that when a man gets married, he must wear a suit. I haven't spent all the money I borrowed, so I want to buy a suit. The photo we took the day before yesterday happened to be available. Don't worry, I will obey you and follow the rules in your city. I will never touch you again until you get married and hold a wedding. Don't worry, I will Listen to you, isn't it alright?" Jin Kui looked at Wang Kuding, maybe she should believe what he said, but she was not lucky if she believed, because in Wang Kuding's view, he would marry her no matter what, but it was only a matter of time. Same as last time, after breakfast, Jin Kui and Wang Kuding distanced themselves and walked down the mountain road to the small town.Jin Kui has already put on the clothes she bought in the town last time, brand new and tacky.But under her feet were still her original pair of shoes that were about to wear out. Like last time, they walked for three hours and reached the small town. Wang Kuding took Jinkui and took their "wedding photos" in the photo studio in the small town , the "newlyweds" in the photo are still smiling "happy and sweet".Wang Kuding asked Jin Kui to put away the photos and took her to the market.In front of a clothing stall in the market, Wang Kuding picked out a purple-red suit, put it on, and asked Jin Kui, "Does this look good?" Jin Kui was surprised by the color, so she picked out a dark blue one next to Wang Kuding, and said: "It's still this one." "This one?" Wang Kuding gestured up and down, as if he thought it was old-fashioned. Jin Kui helped him choose pants of the same color again, and she asked, "Do you have a fitting room here?" The stall owner opened a small door inside the stall, and bowed in: "Yes, there is a mirror inside." Then he said to Wang Kuding: "Your woman chose this one well, it was just shipped from Guangzhou." Here, Guangzhou made it according to the appearance of foreign countries, and now this is the latest model..." Jin Kui stuffed the trousers into Wang Kuding's arms, and pushed him in: "There's a mirror inside, take a look at it, if you want to buy it, you have to try it out..." Wang Kuding looked happy, obediently took his clothes and went in.Jin Kui looked around, it was a big market today, the market was much more crowded than last time, and people were busy.This was the only opportunity Jin Kui had found in so many days. She was so nervous that her face froze. Seeing that the seller went to greet new customers, she let go of the suit jacket she was holding for Wang Kuding, and staggered back a few steps. Turn around and run, along the bustling market street, towards a direction that she can't figure out, running desperately! Jin Kui didn't know what expression she had on her face when she was running, but she felt that passers-by looked sideways and looked curiously.Without any hesitation, she tried her best and stumbled out of the town.A dilapidated long-distance bus was about to leave the station, but Jin Kui stepped onto it before closing the door. The long-distance bus started to move. I don't know whether it was the rough road or the old car, shaking like a dustpan in the wind. The conductor of the long-distance bus was obviously puzzled by Jin Kui's pale face, and asked Jin Kui vigilantly, "Where are you going? Buy a ticket!" Jin Kui was penniless, so she could only express her real predicament in a hurried voice. "I'm going to the Public Security Bureau! I'm going to call the police!" Jin Kui was finally safe. In a police station closest to the town, she ate the boxed lunch brought by the police in peace of mind. real identity. The policeman asked: "Besides the phone number you just gave us, do you have any other contacts? Where is your registered residence?" Jin Kui replied: "The household registration...is in Yunlang, and our home is at No. 35, Hugang Avenue, Yunlang City..." The policeman asked, "Is there anyone else in your family?" Jin Kui replied, "I still have... Mom and Dad, and an older brother." The policeman asked, "What's your father's name?" Jin Kui replied: "My father's name is..." During the question and answer session, another policeman walked into the room, interrupted them, and asked Jinkui, "Who is this call from you?" Jin Kui said: "He is my boyfriend..." The policeman said: "This phone is down." Jin Kui was extremely surprised: "...is it shut down?" Gao Chun came to Baike Company again. He looked at the front of Baike Company's sign for a moment, and then walked in. Gao Chun waited in the small conference room of Baike Company, and saw a few black boss-like figures in the elevator room saying goodbye to Lu Ziqiang.Lu Ziqiang saw Gao Chun through the glass partition of the conference room, and motioned Gao Chun to come to his office with his eyes.Gao Chun entered the room and stood at the door, while Lu Ziqiang stood in front of the office window and stared out. "Why did your phone stop?" "No fee, I haven't charged yet." Lu Ziqiang stopped blaming Gao Chun, and instead asked, "Where has Zhou Xin been painting these days?" "These days...she doesn't go out much." Gao Chun replied, "Maybe she just draws at home." "Did anyone go to her house these days?" "The younger painter has been there, the one from their single-wood studio..." "It's not that!" Lu Ziqiang turned his head and interrupted Gao Chun: "It's another person, a younger person." Gao Chun asked: "A younger person?" Lu Ziqiang nodded: "Yes, he is a handsome young man with your hair, very similar to you." Gao Chun's heart beat faster: "Have you... seen this person?" Lu Ziqiang replied affirmatively, "Yes." Gao Chun gasped in fright: "Yes, where did you meet?" "In her house." Gao Chun felt guilty, and forced himself to be calm: "No... no way... I didn't see anyone going to her place. When did you see it?" Lu Ziqiang fixed his eyes on Gao Chun, as if he had already understood the adultery, Gao Chun began to sweat, but what Lu Ziqiang said afterwards made him feel relaxed. "Yesterday, I went to her place. I saw a just finished oil painting there, which showed a young man. I want to know who this man is." As soon as Gao Chunfu stabilized, his thinking became flexible: "Could it be that she drew it according to the picture?" Lu Ziqiang thought: "Why did she draw this person according to the picture? Besides, professional painters like them usually don't draw people according to pictures. This painting must be based on a real person. This person must be her People you know." Gao Chun continued to play dumb: "Could it be the model she paid for?" Lu Ziqiang still shook his head: "Will she let such a young man go to her house alone? Is it reasonable for a young and beautiful man to be alone in her home?If that's the case, is she playing painting art... or performance art? " Lu Ziqiang asked Gao Chun, as if asking himself, but Gao Chun had no answer. Lu Ziqiang fell silent, pondered for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and ordered Gao Chun: "Find this person for me!" Jin Kui stayed in this police station for a day.The next night, after dinner, she took a shower in a simple bathroom built by the police station. She had just dressed and opened the iron door of the bathroom when she saw a policeman from the police station leading two The dusty man walked into the courtyard and into an office.The lights in the courtyard were dim, but Jin Kui still recognized two faces under the dim light, one was her biological father, and the other was her half-brother Jin Peng! Her father and elder brother were led into an office by the police. Jin Kui closed the iron door, gasping for breath, and struggling with her thoughts. Finally, she decided to escape.From the bathroom surrounded by iron sheets, she climbed up the wall and up to the roof.She fled forward stumbling on a piece of roof tiles, and finally found a corner where debris was piled up on the ground.This is a secluded alley, one end of the alley is connected to the farmland, and Jin Kui runs towards the farmland.At about this time, Jin Kui's father and brother followed the police from the police station and walked out of the office, saying thank you, and walking towards the bathroom.The police first called: Jinkui Jinkui, Xiao Jin!Then the father shouted: "Jin Kui, it's me, I'm Dad!"But no one answered at the door. The police knocked on the door, but there was no response.Push the door, the door is locked.The policeman called a passing female policeman. The female policeman put something on her feet and pushed on the iron door. She saw that this simple bathroom was already an "empty city". That night, Lu Ziqiang held a small private dinner on his yacht, and the people who came to the dinner were those who looked like black bosses.What was unexpected was that Zhou Xin was invited to accompany such a man's banquet.During the meeting, the guest of honor asked and answered, and the words were deliberately out of touch, especially the bald headed guest, with a wild tone, as if deliberately trying to create a little panic in Zhou Xin's ears. "Old Lu, don't worry, I sent a few people there the next day for the matter you assigned last time, which frightened that kid. Don't worry, he won't come to trouble you again." Lu Ziqiang expressed his gratitude, and at the same time looked sideways at Zhou Xin, as if he wanted to see her reaction.Zhou Xin lowered his head and drank the soup without any reaction. The bald head asked again: "Hey, Lao Lu, last time you said that someone was pestering your female secretary, have you figured out who it is? You come to me for such a thing, and I'll settle him!" Zhou Xin still drank the soup calmly, and slowly wiped his mouth with a napkin.Lu Ziqiang said slowly, "I don't need it now. If someone really makes me uncomfortable, I will trouble you." Apart from this kind of language, there was not much to say during the banquet. After the banquet was over, the guests were sent away, and Lu Ziqiang accompanied Zhou Xin to disembark.Walking to his car, Lu Ziqiang suddenly asked Zhou Xin, "What, are you upset?" Zhou Xin seemed to be thinking about something, and hurriedly replied, "Ah...no." Lu Ziqiang opened the car door, handed the car keys to Zhou Xin, and said, "How is your car learning? Do you want to try it? There are few cars on the street at this time." Zhou Xin hesitated for a moment, then took the key.Lu Ziqiang sat beside her and watched Zhou Xin start the car.Zhou Xin forgot to release the handbrake after putting it into gear, Lu Ziqiang smiled and released it for her. The Mercedes Benz turned in the wrong direction after driving out of the pier. After Lu Ziqiang reminded, Zhou Xin reversed the car, and before the front of the car was straightened, the rear of the car vibrated with a bang, as if it had hit something.The car turned off and stopped. Lu Ziqiang hurriedly got out of the car to have a look. It turned out that the rear of the car hit the front of Gao Chun's car hidden in the dark corner. The rear of the car was fine, but a headlight was broken in the front of the car.Zhou Xin didn't dare to get out of the car. She saw Lu Ziqiang and Gao Chun negotiating something at the front and rear of the car from the rearview mirror. Soon Lu Ziqiang returned to the car, while Gao Chun was still standing stupidly behind. Lu Ziqiang said, "Let me drive." Lu Ziqiang drove Zhou Xin home. The car stopped in front of Zhou Xin's apartment. Zhou Xin reached out to open the door, but the door was unlocked.She turned to look at Lu Ziqiang, but Lu Ziqiang remained silent, and seemed to have something to say in the silence. Lu Ziqiang finally spoke in a dull voice, "How many days will it take for you guys to go?" Zhou Xin replied lightly: "Didn't you give me three weeks off?" Lu Ziqiang nodded, but said, "Ah, are you going for that long?" Zhou Xin changed the topic: "Just now, what did you tell that person about the car I hit?" Lu Ziqiang said: "Don't worry about this kind of thing, I will compensate him." He changed the subject again, "When are you going to leave?" Zhou Xin said: "The date has not yet been set. We need five cars, and we still haven't found one." Lu Ziqiang asked lightly, "Do you want my help?" After dawn, Jin Kui finally collapsed in a grass nest by the roadside, her lips were scorched and her face was dirty.In the distance came a truck, the first vehicle to appear on this silent road from night to morning.Jin Kui struggled to get up, struggled to walk to the middle of the road, and waved her arms... The truck slowed down and stopped slowly. That same morning, the streets of Beijing were clogged with hundreds of cars. Gu Zi's taxi came to Zhou Xin's residence early, picked Zhou Xin up and went downstairs. Before he went upstairs, he had noticed that a familiar car was parked furtively in the dark. After getting into the car with Zhou Xin, Gu Zi looked back and saw the familiar car driving out of the dark, and the face on the driver's seat was indeed Gao Chun. When the taxi started, Guzi was furious. He turned around again and found that Gao Chun's car was still following him, so he turned to Zhou Xin and asked, "Did you ask him to pick you up? " Zhou Xin was puzzled: "Who?" The two turned their heads, but Zhou Xin couldn't understand: "Who is it?" Gu Zi said viciously, "That little boy friend of yours is following us." Zhou Xin turned around again: "Who, which one?" Gu Zi is confident that he has seized the handle, and the questioning has turned into an accusation: "Did you let him come? He picks you up for work every day? " Zhou Xin just wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Gu Zi angrily: "Stop!" The taxi driver hurriedly parked the car on the side of the road and looked back at the man and woman in the back seat who suddenly turned their faces.Gao Chun's car passed them and drove to the front.Gu Zi sneered at Zhou Xin: "Go ahead, stop him, so as not to let him run away in vain!" Obviously, Zhou Xin couldn't stand Gu Zi's attitude, so he pushed the door and got out of the car angrily.Although Gao Chun's car stopped hesitantly not far ahead, Zhou Xin didn't go there, but raised his hand to stop another taxi, got in the car and drove away. Gao Chun was sitting in the car, watching Zhou Xin's car passing by on his left side with doubts.Gu Zi was also bored in the car, watching Zhou Xin go further and further away with a livid face, full of resentment beyond words. At a desolate fork in the road, Jin Kui saw a tent.She got out of the truck.She thanked the driver and watched the truck drive towards the wilder mountains before approaching the dilapidated tent.The tent was empty, as if it was a ruin abandoned here by someone.The golden sunflower can only be thrown in another direction, towards the village that is faintly visible in the distance. The sun goes west. In the courtyard of the Dumu Painting Workshop, Zhou Xin and the painters tried to set up a camping tent, and at the same time checked all kinds of accompanying utensils.Lao Suan, Xiao Hou and others calculated the vehicles that could be "requisitioned": Dahe's off-road vehicle, Li Dong's Passat, and Weihua's modified car. Guzi mobilized his buddy A Bing's station wagon again. .Ah Bing was originally engaged in individual transportation, and because he was a small child with Guzi, he agreed to charge the cost.There are four cars now, and it would be much easier to get another one... Zhou Xin hesitated, and said to Lao Suan that the boss of her company seemed willing to sponsor a car to support the upcoming "art" Long March".Everyone rejoiced, only Gu Zi smoked heavily in another corner of the yard, and whispered to his friend A Bing who he had invited to drive. As it was getting late, Zhou Xin was the first to bid farewell to everyone and left the studio. She walked past Gu Zi and A Bing without looking sideways, walked to the side of the street and got into a taxi.Gu Zi and A Bing said something, and they got into the station wagon driven by A Bing together.The station wagon chased out of the courtyard of the painting workshop, and unexpectedly found that Gao Chun's car drove out of an alley across the street, trailing behind Zhou Xin's taxi, completely blocking the station wagon's view. Gu Zi scolded: "Damn it, it's him again!" Gu Zi and A Bing's car followed Gao Chun to Zhou Xin's apartment.To Guzi's surprise, Gao Chun did not stop after Zhou Xin arrived home, but accelerated the car and continued on. Guzi signaled A Bing to follow Ding Gaochun to chase along the road. Gao Chun went to Fangyuan's residence. Gao Chun received a call from Fang Yuan on the way, and then rushed to Fang Yuan's house.Fang Yuan has just made a big trip to other places, and it is said that he is going to work in Chengdu soon, so Gao Chun is asked to go and say goodbye.From Fang Yuan's mouth, Gao Chun further confirmed what had already been proven. "I went to Chengdu first on this trip, and then to Shanghai. I didn't return to Beijing after I came out of Shanghai. I went back to Yunlang." Fang Yuan said: "After the Yunlang Song and Dance Troupe disbanded, the building has been empty. But I I went to your Yunlang art school, your art school is not bad, and several of your teachers have asked about you." Gao Chun was absent-minded, and said, "Oh." After a pause, he eagerly turned the question to his pain point, "Have you heard about Jin Kui?" Fang Yuan said: "I heard that. I heard from the people in the song and dance troupe that she and Yang Feng had already blown up. They had agreed to travel to Hong Kong, but they didn't go. I don't know why, but Jin Kui's father took Jin Kui away again." Kui promised to another person, and I heard that he is a very rich local tycoon." This is old news, just further confirmation.Gao Chun was not surprised. Fang Yuan said again: "Yang Feng is too domineering in Yunlang. Her father may be afraid that Jin Kui will be bullied if she marries him, so he finds a kind man for Jin Kui. I heard it's a boss from out of town. Two members of the song and dance troupe heard that Jin Kui was back and went to see her at her house. Her family said that Jin Kui and her boyfriend had gone out of town.The two girls also knew Yang Feng, and they told me that it was definitely not Yang Feng, because they had seen Yang Feng after Jin Kui left, and Yang Feng stayed in Yunlang and didn't go anywhere. " Gao Chun murmured: "A boss from out of town?" Fang Yuan sighed: "Hey, beautiful girl, I still worry about not being able to get married." Gao Chun's expression was a little dull, and he lowered his head and said to himself: "I went to the big garage where we live, and her things are still there. I think she will go back to get her things sooner or later. My mobile phone I lost the card, so I want to rent that garage and wait for her there. If I can still see her, I can only wait there for her." Seeing Gao Chun's sad mood, Fang Yuan said politely: "You, don't live in fantasy anymore. I have been in the art circle for so many years, and I have seen this kind of thing a lot. When girls fall in love for the first time, they usually find a like-minded person. Prince Charming, but when you get married, you always wear a fat and rich arm. Love is entertainment, a dream at night. Marriage is life, and life after waking up during the day, you have to figure it out!" Gao Chun was disheartened and in an extremely bad mood.Fangyuan looked at his reaction, and added carefully: "The members of the Yunlang Song and Dance Troupe said that after Jin Kui left, she never returned to Yunlang. It is said that she got a marriage certificate with the boss from out of town, and the boss They arranged for her to go abroad to study." Fang Yuan saw that Gao Chun's face turned pale, and his eyes straightened up without moving. He sighed, and couldn't help summarizing his life for him: "Dreams always wake up, let's be realistic, you should think about your own life earlier, ah!" While Fangyuan was enlightening Gao Chun, Gu Zi and A Bing's station wagon hid in the bushes downstairs of Fang Yuan's house, and also started a "private detective" business.If Gao Chun works as a private detective to make money, then the current Guzi is burning with jealousy that cannot be extinguished! He and A Bing were sitting in the car, drinking beer while waiting for Gao Chun.Finally, they saw two figures appearing in the gate of the building, and it was Fang Yuan who sent Gao Chun out.They saw the two shaking hands and saying goodbye under the streetlight at the door, they saw Fang Yuan turn around and go back, and Gao Chun walked towards his car.Gu Zi was already a little drunk, and he pushed the car door with hatred in his eyes, but was pulled back by A Bing beside him.A Bing motioned him to stay in the car and not to come out, got out of the car and walked towards Gao Chun.The dim yellow streetlights set off a black outline of his burly body. It can be seen that he is shorter than Gao Chun, but when he passes by Gao Chun, his strong shoulders can still knock Gao Chun to the side.Gao Chun tilted his body to see who it was, but what he saw was a punch in the face.That punch caught him off guard, and from the analysis of the effect of Gao Chun falling to the ground in response, it was indeed accurate and ruthless.Immediately afterwards, A Bing kicked the fallen body violently, and the body was powerless to resist.A Bing calmly turned and walked towards the station wagon with his head bowed and quickly got on the wagon. Gao Chun was beaten all at once, and it took him a while to recover his breath. His mouth and nostrils were clogged with blood, and he couldn't even gather the strength to vomit.He propped his elbows on the ground, trying to sit up, a black shadow of a station wagon vaguely flashed across his vision, and that black shadow drove towards the intersection with extreme speed and horsepower. At this time, he heard a muffled bang, accompanied by a burst of metal disintegration, followed by a short scream from the brake belt... The pure and chaotic consciousness was instantly awakened by this piercing sound.When his vision regained his sight, he saw only the taillights of the station wagon flickering, and heard the roar of the motor, and then the intersection returned to calm, without a single figure or sound. The surroundings became dark again, if it wasn't for the salty blood in the mouth and the pain in the cheek, everything would be like a nightmare, coming and going in a hurry.Gao Chun slowly got up from the ground, recovering his physical strength little by little, and regaining consciousness a little bit. He staggered towards his car and opened the door with difficulty.The car rang for a long time before it started, and drove crookedly towards the intersection. Gao Chun was shocked by the scene at the intersection. The wreckage of a three-wheeled rickshaw overturned against the wall, squeezing a skinny body with twisted limbs.Gao Chun's car stopped in a panic, and he got out of the car to check with the pain. He could barely see that it was an old man with his upper body half-up on the wall, his arms outstretched into the air, and a wheel of the tricycle was pressing down on his head. The eyes are still slightly open, but the aura of life has withered. Chapter 9 Escape (8) Later, Gao Chun knew that the old man did not die at that time, but after being sent to the hospital by an ambulance for rescue, he was still covered with a white cloth when he was pushed out of the emergency room.他的亲属赶过来了，老伴和儿女们先是抱尸痛哭，后又闯进医生的办公室里，揪住脸上带伤的高纯又撕又打，好不容易才被正在询问高纯的两个警察用力拉开。死者的老伴激愤难平，仿佛要与高纯以死相拼：我打死你，我打死你，我跟你拼了，你连我一块撞死吧你！儿女们也个个红眼流泪，不依不饶：你把我爸爸还给我们……你是人生的吗？是人养的吗？你有没有父母！你父母让人撞死你心里怎么样？你父母……警察们拉着高纯从屋里突围出去，尽管医生护士都上来保护，高纯的身上脸上还是挨了不少拳脚。警察们把他护送出急诊部的大门，拉上了停在门外的一辆警车。 高纯的车子也被开到了交通大队，几个警察拍下了车头的照片，提取了车上的相关痕迹。凌晨天最黑的时候，高纯连车带人都被释放，警察说：“那就这样吧，感谢你支持我们的工作，让你受委屈了啊，回头有情况我们再找你……” 警察的表情略带歉意。 天色蒙蒙亮了，高纯才回家睡下。他不可能想到在很远很远的一个铁路小站，金葵也同样刚刚睡下，一列拉煤的火车刚刚驶出站台，金葵就睡在最后一节车厢的煤堆上面。高纯睡下时眉眼尚且青肿，金葵爬上火车前就已蓬头垢面。 天亮得很慢，阿兵的旅行轿车停在街边的一家个体修车店前，阿兵叫开店门，与睡眼惺忪的老板嘀咕半天。谷子站在车前看他们谈好价钱，老板才过来查看撞坏的车头车灯，以及车身的划痕。 老板看了一圈，进去填修车单子去了。谷子左顾右盼，心神不安。他惶恐地去看阿兵，阿兵则看看四周——这条小街的前后，还没有多少行人。 “没事，”阿兵低声说：“这老板是我哥们儿！” 太阳高启，正午时分，周欣奉召来到陆子强的办公室，在这里意外地看到了高纯。 高纯坐在陆子强办公室的沙发上，脸上还挂着前一夜的青淤伤痕。他看到周欣进来时表情镇定，不像周欣那样慌张难掩。好在陆子强并未注意到二人的眼神接触，他当然想不到周欣和这位暗中监视她的跟踪者，早就是一对过从甚密的友人。 陆子强见周欣进来，说道：“我给你找了一辆车，还专门替你们配了个司机，钱我已经付给他了，一路上你们只管他吃饭就行。我给你介绍一下，他姓高，你叫他小高就行。” 介绍完高纯，陆子强转脸又对高纯说道：“小高，路上你一切都听周小姐的。我答应付你的另一半钱，等你回来后我一定付清。” 高纯对周欣礼貌地点了下头，眼中微笑：“周小姐，请多关照。 " 周欣的紧张这才松弛下来，但这个安排还是让她意想不到，她转脸向陆子强问道：“你从哪儿找的，是你们公司的人？” 陆子强答道：“不是，他就是那天被你把车撞坏的那个人。我帮他付了修车的钱。我看他有车又有时间，就把这差事交给他了。他反正闲着，让他挣点外快，也算是代表你对他做点补偿吧。他年轻，跑长途远路能吃苦，这你放心。” 周欣转过头来，把目光重新投向高纯，脸上也现出释然的笑意： “谢谢你了。”她说：“上次不好意思。” 高纯也微笑着，礼貌回应：“不用客气，陆老板已经付我钱了。 " 陆子强站在他们中间，左顾右盼，对二人相识得如此“融洽”，似乎不在意料之中。
