Chapter 190 Electric Tower and Drilling Trench
A man in overalls came running quickly, a stick in his hand.

"Get down here." The man gesticulated with a stick and shouted, "Little turtle, you don't want to live anymore, do you?"

"Where do you care?" Wang Zhichang said: "It's not your family."

"Get off, don't you dare to cut you? Come down."

They are all the children of factory workers. Whether they recognize it or not, they are born with a kind of fear of work clothes. A few naughty boys slowly climbed down.

"As long as you can climb high, can't you?" The man swung his stick to the tallest Yu Changcheng's ass, and he was the oldest here.

Seeing that it was a real fight, Yang Zhendong turned his head and ran, followed by several children, jumping from the base wall of the tower into the vegetable field.

"Let me see you again and beat you to death. I'll go to your house at night." The man waved his stick and cursed at it.

This is not a joke, if you really climb to the top, it will be a puff of smoke, tens of thousands of volts.

"It's really annoying. Someone will take care of you after playing for a while, and adults are just looking for trouble." Wang Zhichang patted his buttocks, and then sat down on the platform.

"You're going to sit on the ground, why are you patting your butt?"

"Who has a cigarette?" Yu Changcheng also sat down on the platform and asked.

The field has not been planted yet, and the field is full of dry vegetable stalks left over from last winter.

The boys looked at each other, but there was nothing.

Neither Zhang Xinglong, Shi Deming, nor Yang Zhendong have the habit of smoking. The children in the second grade, at the age of seven or eight or nine, smoke nothing.

The only people who smoke here are Yu Changcheng and Wang Zhichang and Li Shucai. Yu Changcheng and the others are older, in their teens, in the fifth and sixth grades, and Wang Zhichang and Li Shucai secretly smoke their father's cigarettes at home.

"This can be smoked." Wang Zhihui pointed to the ridge, and broke off an eggplant stem. The center of this thing was hollow, and he found some dried vegetable leaves, crushed them, stuffed them into the eggplant stem, and lit them with a match.

Everyone has matches, which are essential daily necessities for every family at this time, and children have nothing to play with, so lighting things on fire is one of the few pleasures.

Several children went to break off the eggplant stalks and stuffed vegetable leaves, Zhang Xinglong also got one, lit it and smoked it, it was so spicy and choking that he almost coughed up the overnight meal, causing Wang Zhichang and the others to burst into laughter.

Children don't have any standards, and they don't care about anything. If I can and you can't, I'll feel great, and I'll be awesome.

"Where was that house just now? Who knows? Go smash the glass in his house."

Several children looked at each other, but no one knew them.The power supply system is independent, and everyone is a child of the factory, so they are not familiar with it.

"It's not easy to smoke." Yu Changcheng threw the half-smoked eggplant stem aside: "Who has money in their pockets? Go buy a bag of mixed leaves."

Mixed leaves and bridges are the more popular cigarettes at this time. Mixed leaves cost [-] cents a box, and bridges cost [-] cents. They are all black-stem cigars. White-stem cigars like those produced by Chishuihe are more expensive, and they cost three or four. A pack of dime.

Chishuihe is [-] cents, which is a relatively expensive cigarette, and even adults are not willing to buy it and smoke it by themselves.There were no filters at this time.

There are also tin cans, ginseng, Chinese, [-] sticks in a can, they are all important gifts during the Chinese New Year, they are rare to see at ordinary times, and they cost several dollars.

"What else are you playing?" Li Shucai turned his head and glanced at the electric tower.

"Do you still dare to go up?" Li Baojun asked.

"Pull it down, someone is watching, and you still want to be cut? Why is he really hitting me, my leg still hurts now." Yu Changcheng cursed.

"Then what are you doing?" Liu Xiancheng asked.He is fat and slow, and he is the one who dislikes the electric tower the most.

"Why don't we go to the club? The film starts today." Shi Deming mentioned.

"Tickets are required, no tickets will not let you in."

"I know the place can go in, do you dare?"

"From where? There are people watching, every door."

"Don't go through the door, do you dare?"

"Walk."

"Let's go, why don't you dare." Children are afraid of being excited, afraid of being looked down upon by their friends.

A group of brats dropped the eggplant sticks and patted the ashes on their buttocks and followed the plum tree before setting off.

Li Shucai and Wang Zhichang are the most naughty kids in the class, he is very active and courageous, he is the type who dares to go anywhere.

"Sun Xuliang and He Qiang and I built a nest over there, so we can smoke and light a fire in it if we have nothing to do." Li Shucai proudly introduced while walking.

"Where? Where? No one cares?"

"No one will know about that place unless you are taken there, so why bother?"

Go up along the alley, past four houses, and pass by the gates of He Qiang and Sun Xuliang's houses.The two of them are neighbors, but the above areas are all detached houses, not two shared kitchens.

"What are you doing?" Sun Xuliang squatted on the wall of his house, not knowing what he was doing, and asked when he saw this group.

"Go to the club and watch a movie."

"Do you have tickets?"

"Take our secret passage."

"Isn't that exposed?" Sun Xuliang jumped down, clapped his hands and walked together.

"It's okay, let them see and see."

When they reached the No. 20 building, Li Shucai and Sun Xuliang looked around and saw that there was no one there, and lifted the manhole cover: "Hurry up, don't let others see it."

A group of boys drilled down the narrow trench well into the trench below.

There are two kinds of trenches in the Northeast, which coexist under the building, one is the sewer well, and the other is the heating trench well.

Unlike the wet, dirty, and narrow sewer, the heating gutter is wide, dry, and clean.The heating pipes are hanging on the side walls.

The trench well is a bit low, and adults have to bend over, but it doesn't exist for children, it is quite spacious.

It was dark inside, and nothing could be seen. The leather children followed one by one, grabbing the clothes of the person in front of them, and after turning a corner, Li Shu said, "This is our nest."

Everyone stopped, and Zhang Xinglong listened to the rustling sounds from behind. After a while, a bright light flashed, and Li Shu lit the candle.

It was a corner, a bit wide, and the floor was covered with straw mats and straw mats, I don't know where they got them.

Sun Xuliang took out half a pack of cigarettes from a crack in the wall to show off, and each of the older ones shared one.

"Take the wax aside, keep it far away. Don't lead the straw mats, there's nowhere to run." Yu Changcheng pointed to the candle and said.

"Let's go, don't you want to watch a movie?" Shi Deming urged.

"Wait a minute, I've been addicted to a cigarette for a long time." Wang Zhichang puffed out a puff of smoke through his nose, looking very skilled.

"Smoking while walking."

"Hei, I can't see, how can I fix my body?"

"Isn't there wax?"

"That's for this house, are you going to take it away? That's half of it. Why don't you go home and get two?"

The area of ​​the straw mats is limited, and there is no room for everyone to sit, or squat or stand here to talk and smoke, and there is no wind below, and the smoke permeates the small space.

Everyone followed suit.
