I survived by my sense of smell

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, there was heavy fog in Gongcheng.

An'an Internet Cafe is the largest Internet cafe here. It is located in the central area and is full of fish and dragons.

Zou Bai handed over a hundred-yuan bill, his voice was alienated and indifferent: "Hi, Bao Ye, add a bowl of fresh shrimp and fish noodles and a bottle of Coca-Cola, please bring them over after soaking."

The webmaster is tall and thin, with a curly cut, big eyes with drooping eyes, and a nice innocent face.Wearing an orange turtleneck sweater on his upper body, he looks a bit like a cowardly orange cat.

Liang An found the money and handed it over, and saw the opponent's hand at a glance. The five fingers were slender, but they were too pale. He raised his head and couldn't help but start to look at the person in front of him.

He is a man about my age, in his 20s, with more delicate facial features than a girl, with a mole on his left face, but his skin is too white and a little sick.

Liang An was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "It seems a little unfamiliar, have you just come to Gongcheng?"

Without answering, Zou Bai asked himself: "What machine number? Make the noodles quicker, I haven't eaten for a day, and I'm so hungry, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Liang An was not annoyed after being rejected, and shrugged: "Private room NO.13."

Zou Bai was carrying a pure black mountaineering bag, and was searching for private room No. 13. Ono, who was beside the counter, called out, "Go inside, turn left and the first room is next to the toilet."

The box looked fairly clean. After putting down his backpack, Zou Bai took out a pack of wet tissues from the interlayer and wiped the desk and computer.He is obsessed with cleanliness and can't stand any dirty things. If it didn't happen that several hotels were full, he would never come to the Internet cafe.

Internet speed is average, input, Gong Cheng, woman, hanged, a few keywords, the first few news jumped out.At the same time, a strong stench came from the computer screen.

The first article is titled "Shocked!A woman in a mountain village hanged herself on New Year's Eve."

Zou Bai pinched his nose and browsed through it roughly. The incident happened last year, which happened to be the New Year's Eve. The deceased was a woman in her 30s, whose alias was Xiaomi. It is said that the time of death was around two o'clock in the middle of the night. During this period, Xiaomi's husband was playing mahjong next door. After staying up all night, it was discovered that Xiaomi had committed suicide the next morning.

After investigation, the police discovered that Xiaomi was often subjected to domestic violence, and there were many traces of abuse on his body.

The next few news items were also inseparable from this incident. Some were posted by the media, and some were posted by netizens.

Liang An held Master Kang's Fresh Shrimp and Fish Pan Noodles in his left hand and Coke in his right, and pushed open the door of the private room: "Brother, I'm sorry, there are a bit too many people today, so the brewing is a bit slow."

Seeing this, Zou Bai quickly turned his face away from the computer, took the noodles and drink and said, "It's okay."

"Okay, then I'll go out first." Liang An said, and when he was going out, he accidentally glanced at the computer, and his expression flashed unnaturally.

After flipping through a few more pages, seeing that the information was basically collected, Zou Bai turned off the computer and looked at his watch. It was exactly eleven o'clock in the evening, and the air conditioner in the Internet cafe was fully turned on. I felt dizzy, so I wanted to go out for a walk, and get familiar with the terrain by the way.

Putting his bag on his back, the network administrator was still there when he went out, Zou Bai said: "I'll go out for a walk and come back at night."

Seeing that he was fully equipped, Liang An exhorted: "Understood, I will keep the machine for you."

Zou Bai nodded: "Thank you, it's just that I'm a little bored, so I want to go out for a walk."

"Row!"

By the time Liang An uttered this word, Zou Bai had already left the house.

Gongcheng is a small city, there is no train, and if you want to get out of the province, you have to go to City H first, so the economic conditions and facilities here are relatively backward.

Zou Bai looked around and found that only a few Internet cafes and a large supermarket were still open during this time period.After buying a pack of cigarettes, he skillfully lit one and took a big puff. The depression in his heart was swept away, and he walked around a few times to confirm the location of the station.

There is a small alley next to the Internet cafe. Zou Bai covered his mouth with a hand when he passed by. The hand did not know whether it had just been pulled and unwashed, and it was stained with a strong smell of feces. He retched from his throat. His head was also slammed against the concrete wall.

Zou Bai suppressed his anger: "You don't fucking wash your hands when you go to the bathroom?"

"Are you a man?" the man asked in surprise.

"You asked if you wash your hands in the toilet?"

"No……"

Before the words finished, Zou Bai's face was cold, and he hit back instantly, his knee accurately hitting the place between the man's legs.

"You mother, the man still uses this trick." The man didn't expect him to make this trick, and he fell to the ground in an instant while clutching his crotch, his voice changed due to the pain.

Zou Bai took out the flashlight from the side bag, and the man hurriedly covered his face with one hand.

It was a young man with yellow hair and seven or eight silver earrings on his ears. At this time, because of the severe pain in his lower body, his face was flushed, and the veins on his forehead burst out.

"Chen Hao, you dare to touch my guest?"

Hearing this voice, Chen Hao jumped up and limped away as if he had seen a ghost.

Zou Bai followed the voice and looked over. Liang An put his hands in his trouser pockets, smoking a cigarette like a ruffian, with a vicious expression on his innocent face.

"puff"

Is this being laughed at?Liang An spat out the cigarette butt, and said helplessly, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

Zou Bai shook his head, leaning forward and backward with laughter. A picture appeared in his mind: an orange cat thought it was a tiger, and roared at a jackal lying on the ground, but finally yelled "Meow!".

Liang An couldn't keep his face from his laughter, and also complained: "Get tanned in the future, otherwise people will think you are a woman. Just now that person must have thought you were a woman to rob you."

"You're the fucking woman!" Zou Bai was most annoyed by people saying that he looked like a woman.

Seeing that Zou Bai was annoyed, Liang An's anger seemed to ease, and he left contentedly.

Zou Bai comforted himself: "What do people care about with a cat?"

When returning to the Internet cafe, Zou Bai also pretended not to see him, and went directly to the box. Later, the child on duty brought a bottle of fruit orange, saying that someone had invited him.

"It's really stingy, you can send someone away with a bottle of drink"

Although Zou Bai was complaining, he didn't mind it a long time ago. He waved the boy back.Unscrew the fruit orange and take a big gulp. It's too sweet. It seems that he still doesn't like sweet food, except for cola.

It was almost twelve o'clock, and after playing a few games with his mobile phone, he felt that his eyelids were starting to get heavy. He took out a small blanket and spread it out, put his backpack under his head, and finally wrapped his cotton jacket tightly.

Fortunately, the air conditioner in this Internet cafe is fully turned on. Although the weather is in the twelfth lunar month, there is no need to worry about it being cold at night.

Liang An went out to buy a bunch of barbecue and beer, ready to apologize to Zou Bai, knocked on the door of the private room, but no one answered, pushed the door open, it turned out that he had already fallen asleep, so he apologized later, he thought to himself.

Gradually, Zou Bai fell asleep.

There was a lot of fog at night, and Zou Bai found himself at the intersection of a village. The village also looked quite backward, and the mud was densely covered with footprints.

"Woooooooo..."

There was a burst of crying, Zou Bai's breathing became stagnant, and his body froze instantly. He held back his fear, and slowly turned his neck. A woman squatted at his feet.

She couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but she was wearing a white suspender pajamas with black hair covering her shoulders.

Although he couldn't see her face clearly, Zou Bai could feel the woman's eyes staring at him. Then, the woman stood up slowly, walked to the monument of merit and pointed to him. Only then did he see clearly that the woman's lower abdomen Embroidered a dark red flower.

Zou Bai could even hear her own heartbeat, and she looked towards where the woman pointed.

Li Bo.

The full name of the merit monument is Liyuan Village Chaiqiao Donation Record, which records the village’s donation record for bridge repairs. The village is called Liyuan Village, and there are densely packed names on it. The leader is the village head, Li Bo.

The woman moved again, and Zou Bai memorized a few names, namely Li Youyi, Li Youzhong, and Zhang Dongfeng.

The woman picked up a thick hemp rope from the ground and walked towards the village. Seeing that the woman had no intention of harming him, Zou Bai became more courageous and immediately followed.

Liyuan Village was very quiet at night, and the sound of the hemp rope rubbing on the ground was particularly prominent, "Hula, hula...", Zou Bai felt panicked when he heard it.

"Tick", Zou Bai immediately pricked up his ears, until there was another crisp "tick", and he was sure that it was indeed the sound of water droplets.Looking at the emptiness around him, with no rivers, lakes, dams or rain, Zou Bai wondered, "Where is the sound of water droplets?"

The village is not big, and after a while, I walked to the middle of the village where the houses are more densely populated. I saw the woman standing still at the door of a house, and then, with her weird posture, hung the rope on the anti-theft window. Zou Bai glanced into the house. , it seems that a figure can be vaguely seen.

No, a woman is about to hang herself, although she knew that she might not be human, Zou Bai stepped forward to stop her: "Girl, don't do anything stupid."

The woman didn't know whether she heard it or not. After hanging the rope, she stretched her neck into the knotted rope...

"Farewell", Zou Bai stepped forward to save her, but his fingers passed from the woman's body, and the white dress brushed against his face, sending chills into his bones.

Zou Bai turned his head, the woman in white, in the silent night, collided with the anti-theft window one after another: Bang Dang, Bang Dang...

"what!"

Zou Bai's whole body seemed to be fished out of the water. He held down the beating heart in his chest, and only then did he realize that it was just a dream.Looking at the watch on his wrist, it was only a quarter past five. He packed his luggage and was about to set off for Liyuan Village. He checked the route on his mobile phone. He had to take a bus on the way. Liyuan Village, the total journey is about three hours.

The counter has been replaced, and now it's the kid from before, Zou Bai hesitated again and again, but decided to say hello: "I'm leaving, you, tell your boss."

"Understood, brother, my name is Xiaoye, I can come to play often in the future."

"it is good."

When going out, he bumped into Liang An head-on, Zou Bai nodded slightly as a greeting, and walked sideways towards the station.Suddenly his hands became hot, and there were two big warm meat buns in his hands. Zou Bai looked at Liang An in surprise, and finally accepted it, stuffing it into the side pocket of his backpack.

Thinking of the computer webpage that he accidentally saw yesterday, Liang An knew that he might be going to Liyuan Village, and looked at the back of the other party worriedly, after thinking about it, he still chased after him, meeting Zou Bai's puzzled eyes, Liang An said: Seriously: "Are you going to Liyuan Village? Be careful, they don't like strangers very much."

Zou Bai nodded with doubts: "Thank you, I see."

The station is very dilapidated, and the ticket office is guarded by an old man, staggering and dozing off, Zou Bai knocked on the glass: "Master, buy a ticket to Jianma Town."

The uncle yawned, raised his finger and pointed to the waiting room next to him: "You don't need to buy a ticket here, go there and wait there, get on the bus and buy a ticket, but you have to wait for more than an hour, and the earliest bus to Jianma is only at seven o'clock .”

"Thank you, sir." Zou Bai thanked, then walked to the waiting hall and sat down.

The waiting hall was empty, and there were only four people including Zou Bai. Besides a mother and son, there was also a man in his 30s who was sitting in the opposite corner. He looked not in good spirits, and the two bruises under his eyes were particularly obvious. .

When it was close to seven o'clock, the waiting room gradually became lively, and several tourist groups came in, talking louder and louder.

The girl next to her is holding a small red flag with the words: Big B Tourist Group.

The author has something to say: creation is not easy, I hope everyone will collect more and give encouragement to stupid authors.
