Song Xiu's adoptive parents live in a poor mountain village in the northwest. That mountain village is not the poorest place. In the first ten or twenty years, life there was extremely poor.

If Song Xiu didn't care about what kind of life he lived, I'm afraid that as long as he recalled his childhood memories, he would feel gloomy.

Sometimes, the poorer the place, the more bad habits there will be. It is also a truth that the poorer the poor, the more troublesome people will come out.

A well-to-do person will never steal or rob without a special reason, but a person who has eaten his last meal and never left his next meal may do anything.

When Song Xiu lived there, he didn't like the environment at that time very much. There, even two brothers who crossed the boundary when clearing the land could be beaten so hard that their heads were bleeding. .

Moreover, in many cases, they like to use violence to solve the problem, so if there are many sons in the family, they can run rampant in the entire village. On the contrary, if there are no sons, they will become extinct, and they will be looked down upon, ridiculed, and even freed by others. The presence of bullying.

Because of this, Song Xiu's adoptive parents had to spend most of their life savings to buy a son when they were 50 or [-] years old.

In fact, someone like Song Xiu is pretty good. Although his adoptive parents bought him, they treated him well. They took care of every aspect of life even more. If there are any good things at home, they must give him first...

He hated human traffickers, and felt that it was normal for Zhou's family to loathe human traffickers and his adoptive parents, but he himself did not loathe those fathers, after all, the upbringing for so many years was not fake.

However, he lived a good life, but some people were different. Someone in the village next door couldn't afford a wife and bought one. They beat and scolded them at will, and locked them in the house like animals. Later, after the woman gave birth to two children , and was resold by them to another person...

Song Xiu still remembered that when he was young, when he went to collect firewood near the next village, he heard a shrill voice. When he approached the locked woodshed, he saw a woman with disheveled hair inside. He shouted for help, and suddenly jumped on the window. If he hadn't had violent mood swings, he might have been scared to death.

He was still young at that time, his adoptive parents seldom told him these things, and he himself was so indifferent that he couldn't play with the children in the village, so he didn't guess the identity of this woman, and soon there was a The man ran out and told him that the woman was a lunatic and could not be approached, so he didn't care about it anymore.It wasn't until later that he was in junior high school that he came home occasionally and heard his adoptive parents mention that a bought woman died in the next village, saying that it was a crime, that he suddenly reacted and felt horrified.

That woman is not a lunatic at all, but a bought woman, right?

He felt that such a thing was wrong, but everyone else felt that such a thing was normal... Song Xiu would never go back after the death of his adoptive parents. The only family property, on the other hand, is also because he doesn't like the environment there.

His adoptive parents have passed away, both due to illness, and he was always by his side to take care of them before they died. When the two old people left, they had no regrets, and there was absolutely no possibility of becoming a ghost. nothing but now...

Song Xiu suddenly thought of that woman, and had the urge to know about that woman.

This kind of impulse came a little suddenly, obviously, it was also related to his more and more rich feelings recently, and when he felt remorse, he could even feel a throbbing pain in his soul.

Song Xiu could clearly distinguish what pain came from the body and what pain came from the soul, and he also believed that Fang Chi could also feel it clearly.

Sure enough, Fang Chi soon appeared in front of him.He didn't follow Song Xiu as usual before, but was upstairs, so when he appeared this time, he fell from above, although his clothes and the like were actually made by spirits, so he didn't It will drift around, but even so, because of the excessive speed, he is still a little embarrassed: "What's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine." Song Xiu whispered, "Just now I remembered something from the past." After he stopped thinking about that woman, his pain disappeared.

"You must be careful." Fang Chi felt a little terrified of the current situation, but he had no choice but to touch Song Xiu lightly with his hand.

"Xiaocheng, what's the matter?" Qi Peipei just got the news that Song Xiu's body still has problems, and his eyes are still red, but he didn't want to see something wrong with Song Xiu's expression.

"Mom, I'm fine." Song Xiu smiled: "Mom, you really don't have to worry about me, I'll be fine. By the way, Fang Chi told me something just now."

He told Zhou's family about his spiritual problems because he was worried that he would have an accident in the future, but he didn't want these people to worry too much. At this time, he thought of diverting his attention.

"What's the matter?" Qi Peipei asked immediately. Although she was very worried about Song Xiu, seeing that Song Xiu was doing well now, her worry dissipated a lot.

"Mom, Fang Chi said that my aunt would bring my adoptive parents from my hometown and come out to make trouble on my birthday party, accusing me of being ungrateful or something." Song Xiuben planned to settle the matter by himself, but after thinking about it carefully, he said Perhaps the Zhou family would be more willing to help him resolve this matter.

It is right not to let the family worry about it, but obviously Qi Peipei would be happy to worry about him.

About Song Xiu's adoptive parents, Zhou's family had someone go back to investigate. Hearing what Song Xiu said, they all changed their faces.

As soon as Song Xiu's adoptive parents passed away, those people took advantage of Song Xiu's young age and had already moved his household registration to the school to forcefully divide Song Xiu's land, even the two dilapidated bungalows left by Song Xiu's adoptive parents. They also fell in love with them, saying that Song Xiu is not from their Song family, and he doesn't even have a registered permanent residence in the village, so he shouldn't live here...

At that time, Song Xiu only felt irritated when faced with all this, and he had no feelings at all, so he simply sold everything he could sell, and then went back to school, and never went back again.

"Dad!" Qi Peipei left and looked at Zhou Ziyong: "Xiaocheng was bullied by those people at the beginning, now it's his birthday, how many people want to come? If those people come to make trouble..."

No matter how noisy Zhou Hong is, she still knows how to restrain herself in front of outsiders, but what about others?Especially those who were encouraged by Zhou Hong?Everyone in that village has the surname Song, and they are basically related to each other. If those people flock to the banquet... Even if they don't attend the banquet, they will probably cause trouble if they start arguing at the door!

Back then they would drive away Song Xiu for their own benefit, and now they will definitely come for their own benefit!

"That bastard! I'll call someone to solve this matter right away!" Zhou Ziyong became more and more disappointed with his eldest daughter. Zhou Hong always felt that what she got was too little and it was unfair. She should also get part of the Zhou family's property...

That's right, now we pay attention to the equality of men and women. What he has, he will not only give it to his two sons, but why doesn't Zhou Hong think about it? Everything in the Zhou family, especially the Zhou family's money, is actually His two younger brothers fought hard, not him, an old man!

What he should have given to Zhou Hong had already been given, but what reason did Zhou Hui have to give her sister what he had worked hard for?

"Grandpa, why don't you let me handle this matter." Song Xiu said, "I still want to go back." He didn't think about going back at first, but Zhou Hong mentioned those people, and he remembered the old After all the incidents, I still want to go back.

"Why don't you solve the problem first, grandpa, and then go back and have a look after your birthday," Zhou Ziyong said.

"Grandpa, isn't there still half a month left for my birthday?" Song Xiu smiled: "Half a month is enough... Besides, I want to go and see, but there are other reasons... In that place, the I may not be the only one who was trafficked, and there are even people who are engaged in human trafficking."

Song Xiu didn't even care much about his own life and death at first, so he was naturally not so urgent about superseding fooling around, but it's different now.

In the previous drug trafficking case, Fang Chi didn't agree very much, but he insisted on it in the end, and now, he also wants to go.

However, the previous drug gang was more or less an organized gang and killed many people, but the human traffickers were different. Most of the human traffickers formed an organization with a few people, but the number was very, very large... He did not continue before Helping Tan Chenghong catch drug dealers is because many drug trafficking organizations are small and family-run. It is not easy to catch them from the vast crowd. Why is it not like this for the current human traffickers?

The only thing he can do is to save as many people as possible.

"Those human traffickers deserve to die!" Zhou Ziyong slapped the table fiercely, pondered for a moment, and finally agreed: "You stay at home for two days before leaving. We will take a closer look at your physical problems."

"Okay, Grandpa." Song Xiu nodded. The woman who was locked up back then has passed away. Even if she turned into a ghost, it is very likely that she has dissipated. It doesn't matter if it is a day or two later...

In the next two days, Song Xiu helped Shen Lili get treatment, and he was sent to the hospital by Zhou's family for a detailed examination.

Song Xiu's body was very healthy, healthier than anyone else's, and he couldn't find any problems at all. He comforted the others, but finally made the Zhou family feel relieved and stopped treating him as a fragile product.

Two days passed by, Song Xiu packed up some things, and finally went to the small mountain village accompanied by several people.

Accompanying Song Xiu were Tao Zhiwen, Qiao Bo, his mentor and apprentice, and Zhou Hui's secretary.

Tao Zhi and Wen Qiaobo planned to help Song Xiu catch the traffickers. As for Zhou Hui's secretary, he was sent by Zhou Hui to invest in the construction of the Hope Primary School, the hospital, and the road in that mountain village.

Zhou Hui wanted to do this to support Song Xiu. Song Xiu agreed to this, but he told Zhou Hui not to build it in his own name, but to build it in the name of Zhou Hui, his wife and Zhou Yu. .

Song Xiu himself already has a lot of merit, and this time he solved such a big drug gang, his merit has increased even more. He needs to accumulate as much merit as possible before he repairs the soul, but the road repair school is not. It's a long-term thing. I'm afraid it's just finding the engineering team in two months. This kind of merit is useless to him. Merit.

Country Z is very large, but its development is somewhat uneven. The east is developing very well, but the west is different.

There are few people in many places here, there are many mountains, and the transportation is inconvenient. Even if the country wants to develop, I am afraid that it will encounter problems in the end.

Song Xiu did not take the plane this time, but the train. He got on the train at [-] o'clock in the evening and arrived at the county where he was in high school early the next morning.

At the beginning, the city he thought was very big, now it looks very small... City N, where Song Xiu once lived, was a county-level city, but it was much larger than here. It's about the same size, and some facilities, I'm afraid it's not as good as the small town below N City.

Even in the rural areas of City N, all roads are connected, and every family has built a small villa, and there are often cars parked in front of the door, but here... the rural areas here, Song Xiu, even though he has had a few days It's not here, so I can basically guess the general situation.

"Welcome, welcome! You are Mr. Zhou! Welcome here!" Song Xiu was a little distracted, but soon came back to his senses because of a voice, and then saw that several people were waiting for him, and they were all from the county government. staff member.

Zhou Hui also spends a sum of money for charity every year. In the past, he would donate the money to some charity funds without interfering with it himself. This time it is different. He sent special people to build primary schools, Junior high schools, hospitals, and road construction were funded, and special personnel were assigned to take charge.

This is a lot of money, no wonder the county government will send someone to wait.

"Hello." Song Xiu smiled and nodded towards the other party, but he did not agree to the entertainment. Instead, he handed everything over to Zhou Hui's secretary. Get out of the car and go to the small town below.

Song Xiu was proficient in the dialect here, so the driver naturally felt that Song Xiu was a local migrant worker, so he enthusiastically talked to Song Xiu about the changes in the local area in the past few years, and also proudly mentioned his own exam. Daughter who went to college: "My daughter is a college student now. She works as a tutor outside and doesn't ask her family for money...Young man, have you ever gone to college?"

"Before." Song Xiu smiled. Although he didn't like some people here, he didn't deny it. In fact, he still missed it after not coming back for so many years.

"It's good to have gone to college. Once you go to college, you will be successful!" The driver said proudly, and then brought the topic to his daughter: "My daughter even took the accounting certificate by herself..."

It was already noon when we bid farewell to the enthusiastic uncle driver, and they also arrived at the town where Song Xiu was in junior high school.

This small town is small, but compared to when Song Xiu left, a lot of changes have taken place. At least, there are many newly built buildings along the road.Song Xiu searched around familiarly, and finally found a familiar restaurant, then ordered a few dishes from his hometown that he hadn't eaten for a long time, and asked the store to make a chicken.

It's just that he still remembers this restaurant, but the people in the restaurant don't remember him anymore. It's true, even though he often sent the vegetables grown by his adoptive parents here to sell, but he himself was a seldom talker, and he wanted people to remember him. It is not easy to live naturally.

Everything here is deeply imprinted in his mind, but he is already out of tune with this place.

After dinner, Song Xiu found a tractor in the town and headed for the village.In the past few years, the traffic has been much better, and the car can still drive for a long distance. Of course, because the gravel road is not smooth, cars and the like are absolutely not allowed to drive in. Some people have earned money outside to buy a car , When I go home to visit relatives, I am absolutely reluctant to let my car bump on the road, and I will park the car in the town before going home.

"In a place like this, everyone doesn't have much money, right? Why would anyone buy a woman?" Wen Qiaobo sat in the tractor's compartment, was almost thrown out by the tractor, looking at everything on the road, obviously a little confused .

"Buying a woman is much cheaper than marrying one. The poorer the place, the more people want to have boys, but there are too many boys, and these boys often cannot marry wives..." Song Xiu sighed. In the countryside, There are more men than women, and many girls will try to marry out of town, which makes it even more difficult for men to marry wives. Even if they want to marry a wife, it is a default to give a gift, and the gift money is definitely better than buying a wife. Women give more: "Of course, there are very few such things now. In fact, more than ten or twenty years ago, such things were more rampant. At that time, many women were abducted to the more affluent areas in the south of the Yangtze River. place, and then sold to the men there to be their wives, but it is different there, there is no need to imprison the girls, and those girls are willing to marry there.”

"Is there such a thing?" Wen Qiaobo was young and obviously didn't understand these things.

"Yes, in the 80s, many human traffickers took many women from poor areas outside under the guise of finding jobs for girls." Tao Zhi obviously knew a lot about these things: "It was just opened at that time, and all Everything is done by groping, so the whole society is relatively chaotic... On the contrary, most of the traffickers now dare not sell women. On the contrary, they will look for children. It is not uncommon for the child to be taken away by someone.”

The tractor drove halfway, and it seemed that he was about to reach the village where he had lived for 20 years. Song Xiu immediately paid and got out of the car, and walked slowly, but instead of entering the village, he walked up a mountain road.

If it was in the past, it was rare for a few outsiders to come, and the people in the village would definitely find them, but in recent years, only the elderly and children remained in the village, and the children still had to study, so no one noticed the three people at the entrance of the village at all. a young man.

Song Xiu didn't intend to meet his relatives now, instead he kept thinking about the woman back then, so he went to the next village first, but when he didn't want to go halfway, he unexpectedly found a place emitting strong resentment.

"Here is a ghost that is not weaker than the original Wang Qi, no, stronger than Wang Qi!" Fang Chi, who had been hanging behind him, suddenly said, and at the same time, Tao Zhi and Wen Qiaobo also felt something was wrong. .

For some reason, Song Xiu remembered the woman who was locked in the firewood room back then, and there was a faint feeling that she would see her again.

His feeling was very accurate, the black mist billowed, and several ghosts appeared in front of Song Xiu, among them was the one Song Xiu had seen before...
