Water lanterns and dreams in 1 nights

Where can I buy it, but when I mentioned the "stove", I was stunned and called out "broken", "I accidentally wet my shoes when I was fetching water, and I wanted to dry them on the stove. Forget about it, I’m afraid the shoes will burn out.” He frowned, and gestured to us, “Go straight ahead, turn right out of this alley and walk about three hundred steps, the hotel is across the road. It’s called ‘Heaven’ building a hostel'."

Xiao Liu apologized to us for not being able to lead the way. I expressed my understanding and still wanted to give him the money. He walked towards me a few steps with a look of embarrassment on his face.I handed him the money, and he reached out to take it. At this moment, he suddenly hooked me with his arms from behind, pulled out a cold dagger from his waist, and laid it across my neck, "Put the box on the ground." ’” he whispered in my ear.I put the box down slowly.

"You bring the box too." Xiao Liu ordered, facing Xiu Yi.

I looked at Xiuyi, he stood there in a daze, as if stunned by fright.

"Hurry up!" Xiao Liu shouted rudely, Xiu Yi was startled, and threw the box on the ground, "You can take all these things away," his voice was trembling with tension, but he tightly covered the box with one hand. Under the neck, "Please don't hurt him! All our valuables are in it, let go of my uncle as soon as you get it."

Xiao Liu looked him up and down, only glanced at the dusty suitcase that had been randomly thrown into the dust, and said with a sneer, "Give me what you're wearing around your neck, too."

"I'm not wearing anything." Xiuyi said in a pitiful tone that was about to cry.

Xiao Liu pressed the dagger down impatiently, I felt a cold sting on my neck, guessed that there might be a line of blood oozing out, otherwise Xiu Yi wouldn't have changed his face drastically.

"Don't move!" he hissed, "I'll give it to you." Xiuyi hurriedly took off the things hanging around his neck and held it in his hands, "I'll give it to you." I moved towards me slowly, and finally stood in front of us, and handed the Jade Guanyin to Xiao Liu timidly. Xiao Liu held the dagger in his right hand and put it on my neck, took the jade with his left hand, and squinted at the light.I saw Xiuyi's lips move slightly, what he said was... "Run."

The next moment Xiu Yi jumped up, grabbed Xiao Liu's right wrist holding the dagger and pushed back. I was short and escaped from the attack range of the dagger. Controlling him, he quickly took out a fruit knife from his pocket, stabbed Xiao Liu viciously four or five times in the abdomen, blood gushed out immediately, and Xiao Liu shrank to the ground along the base of the wall like mud, a reddish-brown Wanfu The mandarin jacket was soaked in the gurgling blood, and a pool of dark red blood soon accumulated under his body.

Xiu Yi stood condescendingly in front of Xiao Liu, with his back to me, I couldn't see his expression, only his white fingers holding a fruit knife in his hanging sleeves were stained with blood and trembled slightly.

I stepped forward, put my hand on his shoulder, and comforted him, "Don't be afraid."

Xiuyi turned his head.Unexpectedly, he didn't panic, instead there was a utterly happy smile on his handsome face, "Now, it's finally my turn to protect you." He said, his bright red lips curved in satisfaction.

I shifted my gaze to Xiao Liu, "How is he?"

"It's not a fatal injury." Xiuyi said casually, "Let's go." He was the first to lift the two boxes that had fallen on the ground.We followed Xiaoliuzhi's direction, walked all the way out of the alley and turned right, but we didn't find the "Tianzhu Hotel" he mentioned at three intersections.Instead, I passed a telephone booth, and I asked Xiuyi to wait for me outside, went in to insert coins, and dialed the number of the police station.

"A man in Tongfuli Lane was stabbed several times and lay on the ground," I remembered the name of that lane, "he was bleeding a lot, please go and save him quickly." I deliberately lowered my voice, ignoring the operator's questioning, Hang up the phone.

I opened the door of the phone booth, Xiuyi stood up lazily, picked up the boxes, and I took one of them.We still don't know which store is better.

"Who should I ask next?" Xiuyi asked.

Twilight is dark, and the night is about to surround the surroundings. The reality does not allow me to be too picky. "Go straight ahead," I looked into the distance, the road stretched all the way to the horizon, "stay at the third hotel I met."

Of course Xiuyi did not refuse.He followed me docilely and obeyed all my requests. If there were no sudden incidents, I almost thought he was such a lamb from beginning to end.

"Where did you get that jade pendant?" I remembered.

"Ah, this..." Xiuyi put his right hand in his pocket, and I guess he was caressing the piece of jade secretly, "A long time ago, an uncle gave it to me to keep me safe. It's not a rare thing."

"Why haven't I seen you wearing it before?"

"I didn't want to wear it at the time," Xiuyi lowered his head and smiled, "It's not for anyone to see it, it doesn't make any difference if you wear it around your neck, put it in your pocket, or put it in a drawer."

It seems that it was sent by someone very important.I judged. "Can you show me?"

Xiuyi held out his hand hesitantly, and the jade pendant tied with a beautiful red string was lying in the palm of his hand. After I took it, I looked it over and over again, and found that it was indeed not good material, not even jade, but carved out of jade. They sell pendants and bracelets made of this stone.

"Have you seen anything like this anywhere?"

"No," I returned the jade pendant to him, "I have no impression."

"Alright then." He put the jade back around his neck and stuffed it into his clothes.

Our luck is not bad, the third hotel is a simple wooden house, the room is small but clean, with a small courtyard attached, it is not bad for a temporary stay.I want to book two rooms, but Xiuyi said that it is not necessary, it is better to book a double room so that we can take care of each other.We made do with one night and started renting a house the next day.

31. Bad boy 17

The poplar trees in Jiaqing bloomed, and they were hung on the tree in abundance like wreaths. When the flowers fell to the ground, they were stepped on and twisted, and they looked like stiff and poisonous caterpillars all over the ground, which is really not beautiful.There is also an old poplar tree planted in the middle of the entrance of Jiqing Alley. We walked to the end of the alley, which is the courtyard we rented.

The small courtyard is small but well-organized. It is a traditional house. There is a main house. Except for the entrance hall, there are three rooms on both sides, two bedrooms and one as a study; I don't go in the kitchen very often, and Xiuyi has become its owner vaguely. Only then did I know that he has such a good craftsmanship.

We don’t buy much meat. I always feel that the meat has a bloody smell, unless it is suppressed with heavy spices. I don’t like it. Xiuyi is with me. He has never been too picky about what he eats, and he only chooses what I usually buy. For the sake of his health, from time to time, I will send him to buy some fish and shrimps to cook. If I don’t eat them myself, let him eat them all.

When I left Kaiming, I divided my savings into two, leaving one part for Ryoko, which was cash; one part was taken out, and the rest was kept in the bank as usual, and I carried the passbook with me, so the life of Xiuyi and I was not very embarrassing, but Xiuyi was afraid that I would leave him if I ran out of money, and refused to ask me for any expenses, instead always thinking about making a living with quick money.His thoughts are very dangerous. At this time, most of the quick-money deals are not simple. Besides, the good jobs that a childish young man can do are extremely limited. , I advised him not to waste his mind, since he is smart, he can do any big things if he has the opportunity in the future.I said, and Xiuyi obeyed. From then on, he stayed in the yard every day, tending flowers and grass, fetching water and cooking, and suddenly entered a very simple and simple life. In fact, he may not be clear about what I persuaded him, but he was caught by nothing. Oppressed and urged by the words, he has no choice but to move in order to seek a value worthy of being retained.

I got in touch with the people in the newspaper office, and I continued to write articles during the day. I had no courses to teach, and I was too idle to do anything, especially after the promised article was handed in. I had no intention of writing a book for the time being, so I just read for the day. Well prepared, at first glance, I feel the same as my previous life, except that I moved to a courtyard with less facilities, and the person who accompanied me was not Yoshiko, but Xiuichi.

Speaking of Liangzi, we stayed here for more than a month, and she asked me to write to her. I did write a letter to her to report her safety as soon as I settled down. I wrote three letters within a week. , Not even a single splash was stirred up.I kept writing until I heard that the enemy army had entered the city, blocking traffic, people outside couldn't get in, people inside couldn't get out, and the whole Qiming became an iron wall, blocking the communication between the two sides.I stopped writing and waited for news in vain. In another three months, survivors escaped one after another and told the outsiders about their experiences.

It is said to be a near-endless, brutal one-sided massacre.They gathered the residents who were still stranded in the city, and people lined up in various spacious open spaces in a daze. People who were close to each other were driven together in a swarm. At first they thought it was a routine announcement of a change of power, and then they would let the civilians go home. There is hope amidst the fear of the crowd.However, there was no hope. The soldiers all pointed their machine guns at the people. There was no unnecessary explanation, no threatening shouts, but they just loaded the guns with no expression on their faces. shot through the chest; the mother fell on her daughter's shoulders, the hollow bullet hole on her forehead penetrated from one end to the other; the father fell silently, spitting out blood mixed with broken internal organs, and thousands, tens of thousands of families were destroyed, There are mourners everywhere, and it's only time to fire a round of guns.

I couldn't believe it when I heard the news brought by Xiuyi. He galloped across the threshold, panting
