madman and kidnapper

Chapter 6

On this New Year's Eve, early in the day, the kidnapper heard a noise outside, the new year is coming soon, and everyone began to give each other new year's goods from door to door, ready to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner, in previous years, the kidnapper himself When I was alone, I would walk around, pretending to follow everyone around, eating fruit plates and melon seeds from house to house, but this year, I don’t want to go to anyone’s house, I just want to nest on the kang, with my hands to the right Touch it, the woman's warm body is at hand, the kidnapper put his arms around the woman, touched it with his hands up and down, and then fell into a deep sleep again.

This sleep lasted until noon, and the kidnapper got up and went to the yard to get the hanging corn. Hearing the voices of the Dongwu family, the kidnapper pricked up his ears. I sent three to Li Zhaosu in the east room, and saved them for the New Year’s Eve dinner at night. Hearing the two loud voices humbly coming and going, the kidnapper slammed loudly on the ground, slammed the door and entered the room. Perhaps the Dongwu family was stunned by the earth-shattering "bah", they were silent for a moment, and then started talking again, the voice was much louder than before.

The kidnapper angrily went back to the house, and as he sat, he remembered that the house was so lively when his parents were still there. When the family started preparing the New Year's Eve dinner in the afternoon, the door would not be idle. It kept ringing, and there would always be people who would wander in without knocking, shouting loudly as they walked: "Stone, what good food does Hua'er cook?"

At this time, his father would take a small bowl, fish out a few pieces of meat from the pot, and chat with the visitors while eating. At that time, it was the time when the big guys worked together to earn work points. At the end of the year, they would exchange tickets by centimeters. , Go buy some new year goods, and celebrate the new year happily.Kidnap's father is a capable hand. He is good at farm work and raising chickens in the brigade. Kidnap's mother is also a hardworking woman. After a year, Kidnap's family always earns the most work points. A man came down and brought a few catties of pork and a few sea fish to the kidnapper's house. The kidnapper's father said that they were sent by his uncle who was an official in the army.In Kidnap's memory before he was 11 years old, there were always people coming and going at home, and people from no matter how far they lived were willing to join in the fun.

The kidnapper has been in the house for more than 20 years, begging for food for more than 20 years, but during the New Year's Eve, he honestly squatted at home and didn't go anywhere, and endured the hunger. He just couldn't see other people's family reunions sitting together in a lively manner Every time he sees this kind of scene, he can think of his parents who died on New Year's Eve.

The kidnapper got up and looked at the rice vat. There were only three or two sweet potatoes, a small bag of taro, three Chinese cabbage, and a big piece of rice dumpling left in the big vat. The remaining peanuts were taken by the kidnapper to change the oil. , Now that’s all the rations are left, even if you don’t eat the New Year’s Eve dinner, you can’t last for a few days, the kidnapper sighed, stood for a long time, suddenly hammered the tank, and then went back to the house to wrap himself tightly real.After going out and turning a corner, the kidnapper came to the wing room, rummaged in the corner for a long time, and finally pulled out a net from a pile of ashes, the kidnapper was very happy, who would have thought that the net would have weathered long after it had not been used for a long time. At this moment, the frame fell apart with a bang, and a layer of dust was thrown up.

"Ahem, ah bah!" The kidnapper ate a mouthful of ashes, hurriedly pissed on the ground a few times, then picked up the net in his hand, seeing that it was unusable, and cursed in his heart, his mother threw the net Throwing it aside, there was a "ding" at this time, a small object fell from the net and landed on the ground, making a very crisp sound, and the kidnapper hurriedly pulled it out from the ashes.

"Hey."

It was actually a fishhook, that fishing net turned into a pile of waste over the years, and this fishhook was as good as a new one except for the small rust on the edge.

The kidnapper took a fishhook and found a three-meter-long thin rope from home, and hung a piece of pastry on the hook. When he reached the door, he picked up the rusty hoe.It was snowing heavily outside the house, and people stepped back and forth but failed to make the path visible. The heavy snow covered people's footprints layer by layer. Sticking to the body and being blown by the wind, it froze through the bones.

People in the village are keen to give clothes to women, no matter new or old, they are available for all seasons, and kidnappers are not so rare. A piece of clothing can be worn for four seasons. The family thought it was bad luck and didn't want it anymore, so the kidnapper took advantage of it.

The kidnapper trembled and walked towards the east of the village. It was snowing heavily, and everyone went home to set up the New Year's Eve dinner. There was no one on the road. It's useless. After walking for a long time, the kidnapper vaguely saw a willow tree with a crooked neck by the east lake of the village. He touched the ground inch by inch, and finally touched a thick layer of ice on the fifth stroke, "Here, hey." The kidnapper stuck a branch there, reminding himself that this is the lake, and then put I stepped on the lake with my feet and found that the layer of ice was as hard as the ground.

Turning around, he picked up the hoe, and slammed it heavily on the lake. The floating snow on the surface was smashed into a hole, but the ice did not move at all, and the kidnapper's hand was numb from the shock. At this time, the kidnapper's hand was already red. , has long been numb to the point of unconsciousness, looking at the face again, two long long snots are hanging under the nose, but the kidnapper doesn't know it at all, his feelings are numb from head to toe.

Kidnap knew that this side was going to be impossible. When his arm was normal, he might not be able to move it. What's more, it was hard to carry a hoe now. Kidnapper started to walk around the lake with the hoe, watching as he walked. Boss, although the snow is falling intermittently, it must not be completely frozen, there must be places that have not yet frozen hard.

Finally, after walking less than two hundred steps, the kidnapper found a small black hole, which was really conspicuous in the white snow. The kidnapper walked slowly over the lake, and when he opened it, he found that it was really not completely frozen. The small ice hole, with a thin layer of ice on the surface, can clearly see the flowing water below, and it can be broken with a finger poking. The kidnapper sat down quickly, tied the rope and hook together, and took out the steamed buns in the cloth pocket to hang On the way, the steamed bun was frozen and hard like a stone. Kidnap remembered that when his father led him to fish in winter, he used earthworms dug in summer. Ordinary earthworms would go to the ground to hibernate in winter. , his father didn't know how to take care of it, and he was still alive in winter.The kidnapper looked at the hook with some worry, and felt that the possibility of catching fish was not high, but since they came, he had to try. With such a mentality, the kidnapper threw the hook down.

Kidnapper just sits on the ice like this. Fishing is a quiet job. You can’t make random noises. Kidnapper can’t get up and move his hands and feet. There was a little heat on the body, and the kidnapper shrank his neck hard. Maybe he had lost consciousness after being frozen for too long, but the kidnapper felt a little drowsy, and gradually, his consciousness became blurred.

I don't know how long it took, but the kidnapper was awakened by a thumping sound. Seeing that the rope under his legs was shaking happily, it took a long time for the kidnapper to realize that the fish was hooked!He hurriedly staggered to his feet, and found that his legs had long since lost feeling. The kidnapper got up and beat his legs, and his feet were still stepping on the rope. When his hands could stretch, he picked up the rope tremblingly.

The rope is not long, but it is still very difficult for the kidnapper to pull it up. The things under the rope are struggling all the time. The kidnapper is afraid that the rope is not strong and will be broken if he pulls it, so he has to slowly lift it up. After coming back and forth, the fish finally showed its head. The kidnapper took a closer look and saw that it was a crucian carp, which seemed to weigh two catties. You must know that wild crucian carp usually weighs one catty, and very few weigh more than three catties. It is good luck to be able to catch such a big one in winter with a piece of steamed bun.

"Hey, it's up to you tonight." The kidnapper threw the fish onto the lake and killed it in one fell swoop.

After finally arriving home, the kidnapper first hung the fish on the wall of the yard, then patted the snow on his body, and then opened the door and entered the house. As soon as he entered the house, he found someone in the house, who was sitting on the pony horse at the door with his back facing him. , Hearing the sound of the door opening, the man turned his head hastily, the kidnapper looked at it, and was surprised for a moment. The person who came was a teacher from the town's primary school. A normal university in the city. After graduation, he was assigned to teach in a middle school in the city, but somehow he returned to the town. It is said that he offended someone and was sent down. He almost lost his job. Let's face it, in a sense, this person is still a child of a kidnapper. He was naughty and troubled together when he was a child, and his relationship was very good, but later...

Kidnap looked at Li Zhiwang uncomfortably, unable to find his mouth on his numb face from the cold, so he asked with his eyes, meaning why are you here.

Li Zhiwang saw that the kidnapper was more uncomfortable than him, and the embarrassment on his face subsided a lot. He hurriedly got up and walked over to pat the snow on the kidnapper.

"Hey, where did you go in this cold weather? If you are in such a suit, please sit here and warm yourself by the fire." Then he pressed the kidnapper to the place where he was sitting.

The kidnapper looked puzzled, wondering if this is your house or mine, why are you more self-conscious than me?Only then did the kidnapper think of the woman, and looked around quickly, only to find that the woman was sitting by the side of the cupboard, but the light there was weak, and the woman was wearing dark clothes, no wonder the kidnapper didn't pay attention at first.The woman's dark eyes reflected light in the darkness, they were very bright, and she was looking directly at the two polite people. The kidnapper had the illusion that the woman's eyes were sharp and scary.

The kidnapper felt much warmer sitting next to the pot table. Li Zhiwang looked left and right and couldn't find any extra stools, so he just pulled a sack and sat on the floor. The kidnapper came back to his senses, and he quickly turned his head back, as if nothing had happened.

"Brother Kidnap, you married a daughter-in-law. I should have come to see you a long time ago. Who knew that when you got married, I happened to go to the city to study, and I happened to be distracted. It's not a big day today. The town is divided. Give me some things, thinking of your inconvenience, and I can't finish it, so I will send you some, as congratulations on your wedding." He pointed to a bag next to the pot table.

The kidnapper didn't push it, he just took the bag and looked it over, and saw that there were bottles and bags of oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, aniseed peppercorns, and it looked like a good thing for the school. The kidnapper was very happy, and was worried about the fish How to cook, this is delivered to your door.

Thinking of this, Kidnap's complexion looks much better, and his mouth is as if it has been thawed, and he speaks good things straight,

"After all, it's interesting to be a brother who has been together since childhood. Thanks, brother will remember you."

Li Zhiwang hurriedly agreed, but his eyes moved towards the woman unconsciously. The kidnapper only looked at the rarity of those bottles and cans, and didn't pay attention to this side, so Li Zhiwang began to be more unscrupulous.
