Later they carried Binu to the depths of the woods, and it was obvious that King Deer lived in the depths of the woods. Binu begs them to take her off the board.I don't make trouble, and I don't run, she said, anyway, I'm going to die, and it's a good death in the hands of you children. I beg you to let me go and let me walk. The livestock are tied to the wooden boards for slaughter. They were silent at first, and after the silence they said in unison, "No, you are a sacrifice, and the sacrifices are all tied to wooden boards!" The deer people carried Binu to the depths of the woods.Because Binu acquiesced to their arrangement, the deer people became more friendly to her. Along the way, they talked to her about the glory of the deer king, saying that the deer king had already run faster than the horse, and he had asked Heng Mingjun to choose him. Entering Baichuntai to become a horseman, but he is willing to stay in the woods with the deerman.There are so many deer people in the deer shed, only he gave up the chance to be a horse man. He is the deer king privately elected by all the deer people, and the deer king of Qingyun County.In addition to reminding Binu not to be rude to the deer king, the boys introduced themselves as deer people by the way.General Lu arrogantly patted his chest to Binu and said, Do you know why I am called General Lu?I run the fastest and have the strongest strength. If the Deer King is not here, all the deer people will be under my control!That quiet boy is called Privy Lu for some reason, and his face has an old-fashioned gloomy and vicissitudes of life. He admires Binu's calm attitude towards death. Who told you to come to our forest?He said, what we deer people eat is forest rice, and even if a wild goose flies through the forest, we have to pluck a feather from it, let alone a woman!There was also a boy who looked like a munchkin and refused to speak, so General Lu pushed him over and said to Binu, do you know what kind of deer he is?He is a pancake deer!They forcibly arranged the bread deer's body into a big character, pointed to the circular scars on his arms and legs, and asked Binu to count them.You count, count how many arrows he has hit, if he can’t run fast, he will still be a deer man, and he will cry when he is hit by an arrow, and when he cries, Heng Mingjun will shoot him bread with arrows, he can eat three big cakes a day , look how round his stomach is!

The dirty little face and round belly of the pancake deer are so familiar. Binu suddenly thought of Xiao Zhuo, the distant nephew of Taocun. There are blood-sucking worms in the stomach.Binu raised his hand and pressed the belly of the noodle deer.Poor child, there must be blood-sucking worms in your stomach, you can't run around like this outside, go home, let the witch beat the worms out of your stomach.She stretched out her hand to caress the scarred calf of the pancake deer, the boy's calf stretched tensely, then he kicked Binu suddenly, and said in a vicious voice, who do you think is pitiful?You are about to guard the grave of the deer king. We will tie you to a tree and let you burn incense for the deer king every day. You are pitiful!

They came to a small raised mound, which was the King Deer Tomb.The deer king's tomb was full of sacrifices, which were obviously made by children, such as ox bones, copper locks, shells, wooden slingshots, and several shriveled dead birds.A tall scarecrow was wearing a tattered coir raincoat, standing crookedly beside the mound, and holding an arrow in his hand. It looked like it should be a grave keeper.Now that there is Binu, the scarecrow was ruthlessly pushed to the ground, and the general deer stepped on it, saying, "You don't want to guard the grave well, look at the hay on the deer king's grave, let the birds peck it light.

The general deer pulled an iron chain from somewhere. He shook the iron chain and ordered the deer people to separate the board from Binu. The stump is on.General Lu heard Binu screaming, and came to comfort her, saying, don't be afraid, you can walk ten steps with this iron chain on, you can go to the forest to pick wild fruits to eat, and don't pee if you want to. In front of the deer king's grave, it is convenient to go to the forest.The Privy Deer was helping. He said, there are wild boars in the woods. Don’t let the wild boars come to dig the graves, and don’t let the birds sit on the graves. The wild fruits you pick, don’t patronize yourself, you must give them to the graves. Serve one!

The children actually arranged such a home for her!Binu is afraid, she is not afraid of death, but she is afraid of this strange destination.She began to scream and break free from the iron chain like crazy, but all the deer men surrounded her, and their thin and powerful legs were all lifted to Binu's body, pressing her body in resistance, unknowingly Whose hand, in order to stop Binu from screaming, unexpectedly stretched out to Binu's armpit to tickle her. They may not be children, but a herd of deer.Maybe they are not deer, but have the heart of a deer.Binu finally understood why they smelled like a deer, why they refused to walk properly, and always jumped like a deer, why some children had two antlers tied to their buns, why their mouths It can make the sound of deer.Binu is very afraid, not afraid of the deer, but afraid of their deer's heart, people's hearts can always move people's hearts, but how can she convince a group of deer to move their hearts?Binu screamed under the tree, she called Qiliang's name, the dew on the tree fell from the mournful voice, she shouted the tree's branches and leaves, but the cold hearts of the children were still sleeping, the general deer was full of He looked at Binu with contempt and said, Qi Liang is your husband?What's the use of calling him?Come and tie to the tree together!Binu screamed at a group of children, stubbornly calling Qiliang's name, and she heard the old elm behind her screaming too, Qiliang, Qiliang Qiliang——then there was a clear sound in the night sky, an elm branch It snapped and fell, hitting the General Lu right on the body.

The general deer was shocked, picked up the branch, and exclaimed to the other deer people, what did this woman yell, she broke the branch! The privy deer went over to take the branch, studied the dewdrops on the branch, and said, it was not broken by shouting, but by crying, and the branch was full of her tears. The boys suddenly fell into an inexplicable panic. They said they couldn't let the woman scream anymore. Her voice was so high-pitched that it echoed in the woods, like the voice of their mother when they were sick in childhood. The door reminds them of their mother far away, and when they remember their mother, they remember their hometown, and when they remember their hometown, they remember a burden that a child hates. Conscience, filial piety, and virtue are nothing to a free deer man. The benefits are also detrimental to their cause of running all the way from the deer man to the horse man. In order to block the memory, they decided to stop the woman's shouting.

Privy Lu picked up a bunch of twine from the grave and stuffed it in Binu's mouth. He told you to shout again, this is twine, the more you shout, the tighter it is!The night dew was like rain under the tree, and the privy deer complained that the dewdrops from the old elm hit his head, and his antlers hurt so badly that they were about to fall off his head.The general deer also avoided the tree. He said that as soon as he stepped on the fallen leaves, his legs and feet ached unbearably.Other deer people also had various uncomfortable physiological reactions. One of the deer people kept cruising around his chest, trying to touch the position of his heart, while a teardrop dripped from the corner of the bread deer's eye and fell on the protruding belly , He hurriedly wiped it away while no one else was paying attention.

The boys blocked Binu's voice and jumped away from her. They studied her face a few steps away, waiting anxiously for something.Binu's voice fades away, and the eyes become a potential danger.Binu's eyes were wide open, and the half-dark sky of dawn was reflected in the pupils. It didn't look like there was much resentment or anger. Those eyes reminded the boys of their mother's eyes, but they were filled with water. Light, it was obvious that tears were about to flow from Binu's eyes, the boys were pleasantly surprised by the tearful breasts, the tearful palms and toes, and the tearful eyes made them panic, thus causing an inexplicable commotion.

Tears, tears, tears in her eyes!Don't let her look at us like that, blindfold her too! They pounced on and tore off Binu's belt, blindfolded her eyes, but they did not cover Binu's tears, a tidal wave of tears flowed down her cheeks, glittering and translucent, and splashed lightly Get up and splash on the boys.The boys couldn't dodge in time, they had a premonition that Binu's tears were full of spells, they jumped and screamed and patted the teardrops on their bodies, but it was too late, all the boys suffered a rare sad attack almost at the same time, and their homesickness suddenly broke out , a distant village, a dog, two sheep, three pigs, the crops in the field, the blurred faces of parents and brothers and sisters, the noise poured into their memory, the antlers on their heads slipped off one after another, they squeezed They covered their noses with their own eyes, but it was too late, the tears were like a storm and could not be contained, so they put down Binu and wept in unison.
