Chapter 434 The bell rings under the lake
".no."

Chen Dongchun raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose, and said softly:

"I'm just an ordinary rural teacher. I'm lucky enough to see her people's history."

I didn’t expose the other party, I just wrote:

"So, what about the girl with braided braids?"

Chen Dongchun didn't seem to expect that I would mention another person. He was silent for a while and said:

"Dead, all dead."

"The two young people who were the first to awaken later came together and got married. But not every story has a perfect ending. The girl with braids did not die in the resistance called guardianship, but died of dystocia and hemorrhage. On the delivery bed."

"When she died, the young man left with her."

Why can't it be considered as just leaving with her?

I nodded and roughly understood what was going on. I unconsciously rubbed the tip of my nose a few times with my fingertips. After a long while, I wrote another sentence:
"What about the two Qing siblings?"

The two siblings are almost in their teens. If they are a bit more outrageous, could it be possible that they are the children of Teacher Chen Dongchun and that heroine?

Mentioning the two siblings, Chen Dongchun's dim eyes, which were originally deep in memories, became bright again:
"They are the two children who stayed behind voluntarily after being rescued."

"Of that batch of children, those who could find homes were naturally sent back. There were also some children from well-off families who were willing to adopt them, and they also went through the procedures of formal welfare institutions. After waiting for a while, the Qing family siblings were still adopted. That’s all that’s left.”

"Their situation is very complicated. There are two main reasons. First, they are unwilling to separate to relieve the pressure on the adopters to adopt two children. Second, they have no hands."

"Not all people are willing. Although I originally said that for a period of time, those people would choose to let their children live until they are twelve years old before throwing them into the lake, but some people do not intend to let them live 'healthy' to that age. "

"Some people will break off the designated sacrificial arms in advance and give them to Longhu during the ceremony in exchange for gold. This is why many of those children can only perform simple movements with their feet and mouths."

Chen Dongchun sighed:

"And the Qing family siblings are not only like that, they are also extraordinarily pitiful."

"They were very young when they were trafficked. They fell ill from the traffickers and did not receive timely treatment, and lost their hearing and part of their eyesight. They were too far away from home, and there was no way to describe the characteristics of their family members in detail. There was no way out. ”

"As time went by, they who were studying in the village school grew up a little, and they had their own ideas and were unwilling to leave, so I have been helping to take care of them until now."

Chen Dongchun sighed and then became a little excited:
"They are really well-behaved. You can believe me. No, you don't have to believe me, but please believe in them who were so sincere to you just now."

"Six years ago, I really couldn't afford their medical bills and surgery to deal with old injuries, so I reported the matter to the newspaper for help,"

"They have always wanted to meet the benefactors of their funding, but they felt a little inferior and were afraid of disturbing you, so I always conveyed their gratitude and wrote letters of thanks."

"This is also the reason why I can recognize you. After all, except for those who have corresponded with you all year round, no one else knows the name of the correspondent."

"Although I am the one who wrote it, the gratitude must be genuine."

"It's not that they don't want to see you or write you a handwritten letter, it's really because of them."

Chen Dongchun's lips trembled:
".No hands."

People without hands cannot write letters to their benefactors.

Naturally, there is no way to face the gaze of others calmly, not to mention people like the Qing family siblings who have almost zero ability to negotiate with the outside world.

A mute must still be able to sign. Chen Dongchun has lost his hearing, but he can still speak by relying on his feelings and intuition.

But it is no longer possible for the Qing siblings. Someone sighed heavily, and the room became peaceful again.

I said softly:
".Longhu is gentler than I thought."

Gongshuji answered my words:
"So does the world."

I didn't comment, but I did have a strange feeling in my heart.

Chen Dongchun stood up and started to pack away the cold meals, while asking:
"It's too late. Let's talk about anything tomorrow. You two are really brothers and sisters, and there's no problem sleeping together, right?"

"If it's possible, I'll give you my room, and I'll stay at the student's house for the night."

What else can we do if we don’t sleep together?

The hands were still cuffed together by Mu Lianli.

I felt helpless and nodded. Then I remembered something again and wrote down three questions:
"You are sure that the immortals in Long Lake have left, right?"

"We'll rest here at night. We won't hear any noise, right?"

"Also, teacher, what does the 'immortal' voice you just mentioned sound like? Male or female?"

Take precautions before anything happens, ask questions in advance, and pay attention if you are awakened by sounds at night.

Teacher Chen Dongchun quickly put away the dishes and chopsticks, walked over and happened to see my note, thought about it and said:

"I can't tell if it's a male or female voice. It sounds a bit like someone choking on their throat. Father-in-law?"

I didn't hold back at all, but Gong Shuji beside me gave a muffled laugh.

I glanced at him, then Teacher Chen Dongchun thought of something, his expression became serious, and he said seriously:

"I think the male and female voices may not be the key point. When we and they threw stones into the lake, the voices didn't sound special except for being frightened."

"But one thing is very important, and that is that during the whole process of throwing stones, bells would occasionally ring from under the lake."

Ringing?

I caught this key word keenly, and a piece of information that I had suppressed for a long time passed through my mind again and surged up. It could almost match the word "bell".

I quickly wrote:
"A bell? A bell-like sound?"

"What was the specific situation at that time?"

Teacher Chen Dongchun probably likes students like me who can ask questions best, so he didn’t hesitate and told me directly:

"How should I describe it? Let me think about it, I am a teacher, so let's use common things in school as an example."

"The sound is a bit similar to the sound made by the old-fashioned hand-held bells when there were no electric bells in school more than ten years ago. The bell is just a cover on the outside and a bell tongue on the inside. Just hold the handle on the top and shake it slightly, and the bell on the inside will The bell tongue will make a sound when it hits the cover.”

Isn't that just a standard bell?

My heart was shocked, and I heard Teacher Chen Dongchun continue:

"The situation at that time was that everyone was throwing stones at the beginning, and the bell rang from time to time. As more stones climbed up the base, the sound underneath became louder and louder, and the frequency of the bell rang became higher and higher."

"The sound was not only unpleasant to hear, but the people who heard it were also very prone to irritability, madness, and attacking each other. Because of this, a group of people couldn't help but pierce their eardrums, burn all boats, and finally complete the lake filling operation."

I think there was a comment before that asked about ringtones. It was a bit of a spoiler at the time, so I didn’t reply. You guessed it, Baozi!
