Fly away the pain

"Tang City!"

"Tang City!"

Who is calling me?I slowly opened my eyes, and the golden sunlight dazzled my eyes immediately.

I rubbed it, and saw a little boy squatting in front of me.

"Who are you?" I looked at his face, feeling familiar, but I just couldn't remember his name...what's his name...

The boy smiled and said, "I'm Zhou Yingzhi, Tang Cheng, are you stupid?"

Zhou Yingzhi... Ah, Zhou Yingzhi.

"Let's go, it's time to go home for dinner." Yingzhi said.

I got up from the grass.It's like waking up from a long dream.

It was evening, and the setting sun happened to be reflected on this hillside, giving off a soft warmth.I patted the grass clippings on my body, and saw someone walking slowly with a hoe on the ridge not far away.

Yingzhi asked me: "Are you going back tomorrow?" He was afraid of the heat, so he hid in the shadow under the tree, looking at me with burning eyes, but unexpectedly I couldn't see his face clearly.

Tomorrow my mother will come back and take me back to the city.I said yes."

Yingzhi was a little disappointed: "Don't you want to play with me?"

"Think about it." The country is very fun, my grandma won't let me study every day, and Yingzhi is also very interesting, he always knows some strange and interesting things.

But I still want to go back.

Adults think that we children don't know anything, but in fact we know very well.I know that my father was cheated away by a vixen. I have seen that woman. I was outside the door when she came to our house to show off her might, and I could hear every word clearly.

My mom lost my dad but can't lose me, I'm going to the city to be with her.Moreover, I can't play every day like Yingzhi. I still have to go to school. Only after I go to school can I have a job, and only after I work can I earn money. It is not easy for my mother to raise me alone.

I asked Yingzhi, "Why don't you go to school?"

Yingzhi was still depressed, lowered his eyes in the shadow under the tree, and said, "I don't know either."

He stood up slowly and walked home.I also ran home along the path, walked to the base of the wall, and could hear grandma cooking in the kitchen through the window.

A voice said: "This kid in Tangcheng is evil."

There was a sound of "呲啦", like pouring the cabbage into the oil pan, and there was the sound of a shovel turning.

"Look at him, he's always talking about it all by himself, and he's still hitting people. If this doesn't make your son-in-law run away, he won't know who he's going to hit in the future..."

I recognized it. This was Aunt Chen from the same village, who was notoriously talkative.I ran into the house with a few steps, and pushed the door loudly. Aunt Chen came out with slanted eyes, and she refused: "I don't want to eat, my family's food is ready, so I'll go back and eat!"

I thought of what she said just now, and deliberately stared at her gloomily, seeing that she was startled by me, and hurried away.

Before going to bed at night, my grandma brought me a bowl of tea to drink.I don't want to drink it because it smells bad, like incense ash.

Grandma said: "Drink this, it will be good for your health." Her thin arms were unexpectedly strong, and I seemed to be the prey of my ankle caught by a ghost.

"I won't drink!" I broke free from her restraint and ran outside the house, saw Yingzhi standing outside my yard, I rushed up and dragged him all the way to the field at night.

The wind was very cold, and it sounded like a woman whimpering in my ears.There are dots of light around, which are the eyes of wolves in the night that grandma said, and I said, "Yingzhi, let's go back, I'm scared."

But Yingzhi's hand was very cold, I turned my head and saw that Yingzhi's hand turned into a "hissing" white snake with its tongue sticking out, its eyes staring at me menacingly...

The phone rang loudly, "Welcome to Beijing", and I reached out to answer the phone, my head aching.

"Where have you been, Team Tang? You haven't come to work yet," Xiao Zhang said in a low voice on the other end of the phone, "We're already in a meeting."

I looked at the clock on the wall, it was almost ten o'clock.

Woke up and took a taxi to the police station. As soon as his butt touched the stool, Xiao Zhang came over and said, "Just now the deputy police came to you. I told you that you were sick and went to the hospital."

After speaking, he still looked for praise, and I patted his head to encourage him.

I really seemed to be sick, with a severe headache.

I asked him, "How is the case in Huyang Village going?"

"broken."

"Broken?" I suddenly looked up at him.

"That's right," Xiao Zhang flipped through his notebook, "The victim's family members called the police when they found out that she was missing. We found that all the property in her account had been transferred to a strange man. After tracing the man, it was found that he was living with the victim. It was negligence." After the murder, the body is thrown away."

"Isn't the prisoner a college student?"

"Of course not, he is a vagrant who was supported by the victim before," Xiao Zhang said with emotion, "he is on soft food."

No, there must be something wrong...

"Then how did he throw the body into the lake?" I thought hard and asked Xiao Zhang.

"Oh, he's from Huyang Village. He pretended to go home to visit his relatives, but he was actually disposing of the corpse. Unexpectedly, he was salvaged by fishermen."

No, absolutely not, that's not what the kid said.

Where did that brat go?

I went to Professor Yan's house with him last night, what happened afterwards?

Is that also a dream?

I went home during my lunch break and my car was still parked in the parking lot.I looked at the gas gauge, but couldn't recall how much oil was there before.

My memory is really messed up.Which ones are dreams and which ones are real?

I still have to go to work in the afternoon. When I hurried out of the gate of the community, the doorman greeted me: "Why did Officer Tang come back at noon?"

"Come back and get something." I paused and fumbled for a long time, took out a cigarette from my pocket and handed it to him, "Master, did anyone drive my car out last night?"

"Yes," the uncle took it and clicked it happily, "I wonder why you are driving out so late."

"Yes? Who drove that car?"

The uncle glanced at me and said, "Isn't it you? How come the memory of young people is worse than mine."

"Then when did I come back?"

"I don't know about that. In the middle of the night, Old Zhao came to drink with me."

I decided to go to Huyang Village.

Driving all the way along the village road, I stopped at the canteen where I met the kid before.A shed was built at the entrance, and a few people set up a table of mahjong and were playing vigorously. Seeing me coming in, a person who was catching melon seeds and eating while watching turned to the counter. I recognized him as the boss from last time.

"A box of chewing gum." I pointed to the side of the counter and said nonchalantly, "Boss, why is the Buddha statue you offered earlier missing?"

The boss was obviously a little surprised, and looked at me with complicated eyes.Came here today in civilian clothes and he didn't seem to recognize that I had ever been there.

"A master who passed by said that it was unlucky. Last time, someone died in the lake, so he threw it away." The boss bowed his head to change, and said while putting a handful of melon seeds in his hand on the table.

"Where did you throw it?" I asked.

"As soon as the waste is collected, let him take it away if he wants it."

I got my stuff and went back to the car.In fact, things like Buddha statues and Buddhist scriptures should not be enshrined lightly. Different Buddhist scriptures have different rituals.

The little ghost probably lived in that Buddha statue before, I don't know what opportunity I catered to him, and let him escape from it.

According to the instructions of the owner of the canteen, I found the house that collected the waste.A dilapidated and simple two-story self-built house, the first floor is full of messy sundries, the yard is also full of collected waste, and beer bottles are piled high in the corner.A puff of dust mixed with corruption hits the face, well, it's like a dump.

"Is anyone there?" I called out.

No one answered me.

This place really didn't look like someone lived there, so I kicked away a bag of unknown things at my feet and walked inside.

The first floor is just like what you see, full of waste products, and you walk up the simple stairs without handrails, and you can see the second floor clearly.Surprisingly clean and unobstructed.

There are simple kitchen utensils and furniture, and the doors of the two rooms inside are closed.

"Is anyone there?" I called again.Although the owner didn't lock the door, it seems that there is no door to lock, but it is a thief if you don't invite yourself.

A small area was separated by a curtain in the corner of the living room. I opened it and saw the evil-faced Buddha glaring at me.

I silently said a few words "Naaaaaaaaa" in my heart, and reached out to pick it up.It's a bit heavy, it seems to be made of pottery, but if you take a closer look at it covered with dust, you can still find that the painting is lifelike, it is a very good object.

"Boom...boom..."

I was looking at it, and suddenly there were two dull knocking sounds in the air, which were very clear in the silent atmosphere.

Moreover, the house was small, the kind of self-built house in the countryside, and the sound was obviously coming from the room with the closed door on the left.

I gently put down the Buddha statue, knocked on the door and asked, "Is anyone there?"

The air was silent for a while, and there was another knocking sound inside: "Boom...boom...boom..."

This is... calling for help?I used to take this as an elective when I was in police academy, and it sure sounds like it.But in this kind of place, someone will use a password to ask for help?

I turned the handle and found that it was locked, and it seemed that a key was required to open it.This is even more suspicious. Is it illegal?

"Who are you!"

Suddenly there was a shout from behind, and just as I turned my head, a beer bottle came towards me!

A severe headache came, my eyes were blurred, and I didn't know anything...
