Heroes of the Sons and Daughters

Chapter 13 Exploring the Crypt, Working Hard, Pitying the Weak Girl, Picking Grimaces, Talking and Laughing, Prostitute (1)
Last time, it was the unknown woman wearing red who wiped out the murderous monks in Nengren Temple and saved Mr. An's life. When I came to this temple, I could only hear crying, shouting, "Heaven, help me!"He was surprised and said: "It's strange! I killed all the monks in this temple. Outside the temple, there are high mountains in front and wilderness in the back; there are no villages in the distance, and there are no homes nearby. What's more, it's the middle of the night. Where did the crying come from?" Come here?" Mr. An said: "I've been crying for half a day, and I just came here as if bickering, I just think it's a neighbor."

The woman said: "It's unreasonable! Is there a neighbor here? Something is wrong." As she spoke, she burst into tears again.

The woman went to the courtyard and followed the voice, as if she was in the kitchen courtyard.He hastily tucked away the knife, and came to the moonlight gate, only to hear the crying sound getting closer, and it turned out to be in the room where the charcoal was piled up.Walking to the broken window, I saw some charcoal piled up, but no one was there. I looked at the door, but it was locked.He broke the lock with his hands and went in, only to see that there was also a small door closed on the west side of the north wall, and behind the east firewood pile was a large thorn basket for coal, with a broken clock about the size of a water tank fastened on it. .He thought to himself: "This clock is so strangely placed!" He lifted up the broken clock and put it aside; when he opened the basket again, he saw a person, squatting there panting for breath, in a dark pile. .

Lie Gong, why do you think this man is here?It turned out that the monks in this temple did a lot of evil, and the usual injustice and lawlessness were not limited to Mr. An.The man in the basket also came to sharpen at noon this day.The monk locked him in the room and put him under a big basket, and said that he must not make a sound, but if he made a loud noise, he would definitely die, so he was handed over to the bald man and the skinny monk to take care of him instead.The man was bored in the basket for a long time, when suddenly he heard a commotion outside, but after the second time he couldn't hear anything, even the two monks didn't come to check on him.He was depressed for a while, hungry and thirsty, and he couldn't help crying, which was heard by this good girl, so he searched for help.The man thought only that the monk had come, and was too frightened to make a sound.The woman said: "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you. Come out with me quickly, and under the moonlight, I'll ask you something."

With that said, he walked into the kitchen first.The man heard a woman's voice, and slowly stood up.Then followed tremblingly.The woman was turning on the oil lamp there, and when she heard him follow, she looked back and saw that he was about fifty years old, dressed in the country, and she was waiting to talk to him, not wanting that man to rush forward, and shouted: " My child! I just said that I can't meet you in this life, so you are still here! But why is your mother missing?" The woman was surprised when she heard this, and said, "Where did you start?" Because she said: " You think you are confused, you have admitted the wrong person!" The man rubbed his eyes, only to realize that he had admitted his mistake, and he knelt down in a panic, saying: "Miss, it is my little old man who is blind. Miss , who are you, come to save me?" The woman said, "Don't ask me, and tell me the reason for your name." The man said, "It's a long story. Girl, since you saved me My poor life, why lead me to meet my daughter and wife." The woman hurriedly asked, "Where is your wife and daughter?"

The man said: "The master pushed me out and locked me here. Who knows where he got it?" I've walked all over, why haven't I seen anyone coming?" Hearing this, the man burst into tears again.Said: "My God! This must be dead!" The woman said: "Don't cry, you wait here patiently, don't wander around, and I must find it for you."

The man listened and kowtowed again.When she got up, the woman had already gone out all the way.

But he said that Mr. an was looking forward to it because the woman couldn't find the crying sound.Suddenly a woman came in and said through the row: "Girl, listen, the next door is stirring again." The woman listened intently for a while, and the voice came from the inner room.Then he went into the room, carefully looked under the table and even under the bed, shaking his head in wonder.

Lie Gong, do you know why he searched under the table and under the bed?It turns out that in the poor mountains and remote places outside, there are black shops that are used to robbing merchants, and temples that do not abide by the rules. Most of them have cellars or tunnels behind the beds and under the altars.Often when meeting lonely guests, they would come out in the middle of the night to rob his property, not only killing people, but even imprisoning Tibetan women.The ground level in other provinces is mostly paved with wooden boards, and the top is tightly covered with seams, so it is not easy to see.About one of these activities could not be hidden from this woman.Even the monks in Nengren Temple are usually unfair and lawless, he also knows a little bit; it's just that it has nothing to do with him, and it's not worth meddling in this kind of business.It wasn't until the two monks, the skinny man and the bald man, fought against each other. After hearing the nonsense, I expected that in addition to robbing wealth and killing people, there must be some outrageous deeds in this temple. Because I was eager to save Mr. An, and Can't do both.Now, after hearing what the old man said, he has already moved his heroic heart, determined to find out the whereabouts of the mother and daughter, and see what the reason is.He searched all over the house for a while, but he couldn't find any trace, so he filled his chest with anxious anger, and said: "Today we will go to heaven and earth, we must find him!"Looking at the trough partition to the north, it seems a bit strange to install.After entering the small door, I saw nothing but a black narrow passage, which went from behind the north wall of the charcoal house to the door at the northwest corner of the two kitchens.The kitchen light can be seen through the crack of the door, and it doesn't seem to have any reason.Turning around and looking again, I saw two flat-topped cabinets in the room, one on the north was locked, and the door on the south was ajar.I opened the door of the cupboard, and saw an old monk's hat inside, some tea bowls and tea trays for manual use, a layer of dust, it seemed that it was not open.After reading it, I went to the cabinet on the north side again, opened the lock, and was overjoyed, and said, "Here it is!" It turned out that there was no drawer in the middle of the cabinet, and there was no couch board underneath, and the back board behind , One door to the end, smeared with oil and water, as if people often come in and out.

As soon as the door of the cabinet was opened, I heard a person say through the backboard: "Isn't what I advised you a good thing? When I open my mouth, I say scolding, and when I start, I say beating. When the master comes back, you see whether I will tell you or not! Tell me, it will kill you, I can't see you!" Another said: "Even if you tell me, you beast! I am ashamed of death at this moment, and that one wants this life!" Another old voice said: "The matter When we get here, we'd better beg him, don't break the price." The woman heard this, how can she accept it?While tucking the knife behind his back, he stretched out his hand and slapped the back of the cabinet, making repeated slaps.Just one beat, I heard a bell ringing inside, and someone answered, "Here we come!" He also heard him muttering as he walked, "I tell you, the master is coming back!" It's gone. I think you can scold me again!" The outside listened and clapped again and again.I heard the inside saying again: "Come here, old man, don't be busy! This narrow path is still dark, so you have to go up slowly step by step." Then, the voice came to the front, and then listened The chain that had to be pulled to close the door rang, and there was another bell, and the back panel creaked open from the inside.

The woman looked across, and a middle-aged woman flashed out of the door. She saw him slapping half of his temples that looked like black charcoal hair, rubbing a layer of powdered face that looked like a plaster wall, and ordering a pig's blood pot. Similar lips, a pair of fleshy eyes, two broom eyebrows, nostrils protruding to the sky, and teeth exposed; wearing a yellow hairpin, wearing a green buttoned crepe dress with wide peach red sleeves rolled up, He asked the woman with a strange voice and a strange look, and said, "I only think of it as our master! Who are you?" Then he was about to close the door.

The woman leaned forward and lightly locked the door with her finger.The woman said: "You just didn't tell me to close the door, did you explain who you are?" The woman said: "Why don't you even recognize me? I am me!" The woman said: "But Why are you you?" The woman said, "If you don't call me me, can you call me you?"

The woman said: "I don't understand your tongue-twisters. You just said why you came here? Who told you to come? How do you know that there is such a door?" The woman was very clever, so he borrowed The woman just said in a voice: "I was invited by your master. If you don't allow me to go in, I will go." The woman said: "Our master invited you here. What do you want to do?" The woman Said: "Please let me help you persuade him!" After hearing this, the woman smiled with her big thin mouth open and said, "Look, 'the flood rushed into the Dragon King Temple—one family does not know one family." People' la! Then, please sit in the room." Then he opened the door.The woman said: "You go first." Seeing him go first, he said: "Look, the master has found someone to persuade you to come. He is more beautiful than me. I don't think you agree!"

After the woman let him go, she stepped into the door and saw that it was a cellar with walls.There is a narrow passage in the door, about two feet wide, going down from the north end with steps like a staircase, a brick wall to the west, a partition board to the east, a square window in the middle, and a small door at the south end. , the light came straight from the door.The woman looked at it, took off the back door first, stood beside it, and then came down the steps step by step.Walked to the end of the steps, entered the small door, and saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman inside at a glance.His description was exactly the same as his own, as if he was looking in a mirror, and he was surprised in his heart: "It's strange, it's said that 'people's hearts are different, each is like its own face', how can there be such a similarity!" Definitely, take a look around the cellar. The ground below is the same square bricks, and the top is molded with connected big logs about a foot square. Charcoal house.Looking around, you can see that there are doors and windows on the west side, and brick walls on the north, south and east sides, and an air hole is left in the northwest corner to let in the wind and let out the air.There is a large bed in the north of the room, three or four boxes are placed on the east end of the bed, and a curtain is hung under the west foot of the bed.Next to the west wall is another single bed, next to the east wall is a clothes rack at the south, a table with two tables at the north, and a spring stool next to the south wall.The woman sat on that stool, and beside her was an old woman who presumably was his mother.The wife is also dressed in a village.The girl was wearing an old Yuebai white silk jacket and a blue silk skirt. There were hairpin rings on her head, and the skirt covered her, so the size of her feet couldn't be seen.However, although he was dressed as usual, he was beautiful and moving with red face and green temples.Although she is a daughter of the country, she is gentle and gentle.It's just that the pink light is pale from crying, and the hair on the temples is fluffy. Sitting there with his head bowed and weeping, it's unbearable to watch the good life.

After looking at it, the woman in red walked up to him, said a blessing in a flat way, and said, "this girl, a girl, has left her body in such a place, so naturally she has to discuss how to grow up. The money is round, so stop crying, don't be cursing."

Before finishing this sentence, the woman in the moon white stood up, spat viciously in his face, and said, "Ah bah! Fart! What is this, what is it, what else is there?" Discuss? Why do you tell me not to cry and curse? I think you are also a girl, can you bear it willingly? Shut up that mouth for me quickly, and if you want to talk more, don't blame me for being rude !" The wife hurriedly said: "Son, don't be like this, this girl said good things." The woman said sharply again: "What good words! He is just in the same spirit as the robber. I'm sorry that he waits for such a You look so shameless, you can't insult the word 'girl'!"

Lie Gong, this "Legend of Heroes and Heroes" has been performed for the seventh time. You have all experienced the eloquence, skills and character of this girl in red.Probably since he was born in a mother's womb, he has never been subdued or subdued. Now that he is insulted by this woman wearing moon white, is there anyone who will not turn his face?Who knows that heroes and heroines work differently after all.When he saw this girl wearing moon white, he respected and loved her more and more, and said, "It's not in vain that she looks just like me!" Then he took a step back and wiped the spittle off his face Mo, smiled and sighed, and said: "Girl, you are so wronged, naturally you should be angry, I don't blame you. I just want to ask for advice, is it okay to just cry and scold for a while? Think again." The woman wearing moon white said: "What else are you thinking about? I'm just dead!" The woman wearing red laughed after hearing this: "Ants are greedy for life, how can they say 'death' so lightly? 'Word?" The woman wearing the moon white said: "I'm not like you who are afraid of death and greedy for life, willing to be humble and humble, and serve as an envoy for that evil monk. Thanks to you, you still have the face to persuade me!"

The disgusting woman couldn't bear to see him swearing, she took a cigarette pipe, pointed at the woman in the moon white and said, "Gegeer [Gegeer: a name for a girl in a Manchu family with status], you Don't make trouble with others with the gun that suits me! Look, there is a big knife tucked in his back!" The woman wearing moon white said: "Even if he has a knife! It's a sword. Tree Knife Mountain, I'm not afraid either!" The woman in red was about to comfort the woman in moonwhite with infinite condescension, when she was distracted by the disgusting woman, he turned around and shouted: "This What does it have to do with you? I want you to talk too much!" The woman said: "If a person has a mouth under his nose, who cares who is not allowed to speak?" The woman in red said: "It is I who control you. Talk!" As he spoke, he touched the knife behind his back.Seeing this, the woman got a little hairy, turned her head and said: "If you don't say it, don't say it, please forgive me for being talkative. I'll keep my words and I'll take care of Lord Hades!"
