Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

I just took a sip of wine, and when I reacted, I wanted to leave...

It's too late.

I don't know what kind of drug was put in the wine, I don't have any energy in my body.

In a trance, I turned my head and took a look.

Beside the old equipment, Lord Xing put his pants back and turned around.

A lantern was placed under his feet. With a frosty face, he reached out and took out a small knife for cutting roast chicken from his pocket and shook it, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"fish...."

Before I finished calling my name, I fell to the ground with a thump and lost consciousness.

......

I don't know how long it took, but I woke up again in a daze.

The surrounding light is very dark, there are no windows in the room, and the nose can smell the smell of rotten furniture. Some cotton balls are scattered on the ground. Perhaps after a long time, the cotton balls have turned black and rotten.

With my hands back and my feet close together, I was tied to a pole with a rope. I couldn’t yell out even if I wanted to, because my mouth was gagged.

Next to my right hand, Brother Yu was looking around, he woke up earlier than me.

I struggled back and forth and whined twice.

Brother Yu heard the movement, turned his head to look at me, and winked at me.

"Squeak..."

There was the sound of the door opening, and a figure came in with a lantern in his right hand and closed the door again.

I don't know where this house is, there is no light, Master Xing is still dressed in a military overcoat.

He casually put the lit lantern on the table, pulled out a broken chair, and sat in front of me.

After staring at me for a few minutes, Master Xing took off the lantern shade, leaned over with a cigarette in his mouth, and lit it with the white candle in the lantern.

"call....."

Master Xing held the cigarette with one hand, squinted his eyes, and spit all the smoke into my face.

"Boy, this is still the cigarette you gave me, not bad."

"Hey...."

Master Xing flicked the cigarette ash: "I'll let go of your mouth now, don't yell, I can't handle it if you yell."

After speaking, he pulled off the rag I was biting in my mouth.

I yelled:

"Master Xing!"

"Wang Xinggui! You are Wang Xinggui, the director of Ermian Factory!"

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in the root of my thigh. For a moment, the pain was so painful that I couldn't breathe.

I had a small knife stuck in my thigh, but the handle was left out, and the blade had sunk deep into the flesh.

In less than ten seconds, the blood soaked the pants.

Master Xing let go of the handle of the knife.

"Boy, I told you to be quiet. How are you? Just call me Wang Xinggui when you come up. You make it difficult for me."

I grinned and gasped, it hurt.

"Just know it hurts, don't interrupt when I'm talking now, and you are a big guy."

Master Xing let go of Brother Yu and pointed the knife at his face.

Brother Yu looked at it and said nothing.

"Hey..." The old man sighed again and sat down on the chair.

"Yes, you are right, I am Wang Xinggui, the first director of Northwest No. [-] Cotton Factory."

Master Xing looked up at the roof with confused eyes, as if he had returned to 1958 in an instant, and his tone was vicissitudes.

"Back then, there was a large-scale steelmaking operation, and Ermian had a science popularization group, a production group, and a women's group. They were divided into divisions and production, and the responsibility was assigned to each person. I remember that in March 1958, the municipal government issued a death order to the factory to suspend the production of cotton clothes and quilts. All assets were used to build a small blast furnace, and the scrap iron, pots and pans in the factory were all used to burn molten iron."

"Pooh!"

"Then the one who got the fuck out of practice is Gang!

"More than half of them are waste products! Seeing that the task period is approaching and the city's production task has not yet been completed, I pulled a load of raw materials from Hanzhong to make steel."

The old man pointed at me: "Old man Bai told you that's right. In the pile of scrap iron pulled from Hanzhong, there was a big iron Buddha and an iron tower. Molten iron."

"But my younger sister disagrees. My second aunt has always recited Buddha's name, and my younger sister also recited Buddhist scriptures under the influence of my second aunt. We set up a small Buddhist hall at home, and when we go back, we burn incense and recite scriptures."

"You should have guessed it later, he wanted to keep the Tiefo and Tieding. As the director of the No. [-] Cotton Factory, how could I agree to her doing this?"

"I never thought about it..."

"She hid it from me and secretly conspired with Bai Tingli and Tang Xin to steal the Iron Buddha and the Iron Roof."

"After the accident, under great pressure from the municipal government and various team members in the factory, I just gave him a circular to criticize. In order to explain to the higher authorities, I fired Bai Tingli."

The old man was suddenly excited, and he asked me loudly: "Is there anything wrong with what I did! I was right! I just want to protect her!"

"I like her!"

I couldn't close my mouth in shock.

The news was so unexpected that I temporarily forgot the pain of the wound on my leg.

How can I not hear it.

"She" refers to Wang Xiaoqin who Fang Nian hanged from a pear tree. I had no idea that Wang Xiaoqin would be Wang Xinggui's younger sister...

And from the meaning between the lines in the old man's words, I could tell that his liking for Wang Xiaoqin was not the kind of liking a normal old man would have for his younger sister.

I recalled the girl in the old photos, standing in the cotton field, braiding her hair and wearing a flowered padded jacket. In that era when there were no cosmetics and beauty, she could definitely be regarded as a beautiful girl.

"I know what's going on in your head."

Master Xing took out a bottle of wine from the pocket of his military overcoat. The wine was the kind of low-quality wine in a small flat bottle of three or two. I drank it before, and it was very spicy.

He unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip, wiped his mouth and said, "I have no blood relationship with her, why can't we walk together, tell me."

I opened my mouth, not knowing how to speak.

Master Xing has white hair, dirty clothes, black hands with muddy fingernails.

He just looked at me like that, his eyes turned red, and he just cried like that. He seemed to have suffered a great grievance. He threw away the cigarette and put down the drink, and kept wiping away his tears.

"I killed her!"

"It was the gossip in the factory that killed her!"

The old man kicked down the table and said loudly:

"I'm just a shit factory manager!"

"If one day I go back to 50 years ago! I will stab all those who chew their tongues to death! Cut off all their tongues! Cut off all their tongues and fry them! When they are cooked, take them out Feed the dog!"

"Gudong... Gudong..."

Master Xing drank up a bottle of wine, and casually threw the empty bottle in the corner.

"Forehead."

After hiccupping, he said, "I don't care about the top of the iron tower, it belongs to old man Bai, you take it away, and I asked you to take it away."

While talking, Master Xing walked up to me and patted my face with his hand.

"You should accept it as soon as you see it. Why are you coming back?"

"Why are you so greedy?"

"The iron Buddha belongs to Xiaoqin, but you want to take it away! Anyone who dares to take me will die!"

The wrinkles on the old man's face were crowded together, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

I was really frightened, I could see a ruthlessness and madness in his eyes, he might really kill someone for Tie Buddha.

"Xing... Lord Xing... let me go first."

"We don't want your Iron Buddha anymore."

"You let me go, I will definitely persuade other people when I go back."

The old man shook his head.

"I thought that you would give up after getting the iron roof. I was wrong. You still want the iron Buddha. The greed of thieves is born."

"I changed my mind."

"I'm going to kill you, so that no one is going to have the idea of ​​​​Tie Buddha."

"Yes, let's do that, and kill you all."

"Buried under the pear tree."
