Pick up a husband to farm

News of bloody foot prints appearing in Luo Ying's yard spread like wildfire in Xiaohe Village, which is not too big or small. On a summer noon, the sun was so hot that it seemed to roast everything on the ground. The people who came to Luo Ying's house to watch the excitement, and the people present were watching the footprints on the ground the size of an adult's foot, and they couldn't help shivering.

Of course, there are also people who speculate on this, such as Li Shucai in the village, if something happened to someone in the village, it would be unreasonable for him not to come out to have a look, so he came with his wife, observing the footprints on the ground and muttering: " Judging from the size of the footprints, it must be something only adults can have."

At this time, Tian Luo came back from the town. Tian Luo was busy with the work in the clinic, and thought of using the afternoon to study a few medicinal foods, so he came back from the town ahead of schedule. Entrusted, he went home for a while, and brought his own Tao Yuan to Luo Ying's house.

When everyone was guessing who the big footprint belonged to, Tian Luo suggested: "Since we already know that it is a man's footprint, and my second uncle's animal trap has also hit him, and the animal trap is gone, we Why not investigate in Xiaohe Village first? An adult man with a wounded leg can compare it with the footprints, and then he will know everything?"

"Well, that makes sense." Li Shucai glanced at Tian Luo approvingly, and then yelled loudly at the people watching the excitement around him: "Go back, everyone who watched the excitement, tell each family Households, all the men gather at the wheat threshing ground in the village within a stick of incense."

Following Li Shucai's order, the people who had been watching the fun dispersed in a short while. Seeing that the house was finally quiet, Luo Ying closed the door directly, called Tian Luo and Tao Yuan into the house, and told Zhao Laoshi to go. After opening the watermelon, she took a sip of water and said, "Luo Er, it's a good thing you're back, otherwise your second uncle and I wouldn't have been able to drive those people away."

Just as Tian Luo was about to speak, Zhao Laoshi entered the room with a tray of watermelons, and he did not forget to say, "They came this morning. There are batch after batch of people watching the excitement. I don't even know the door. If it can't be closed, that kid Fulai is smart, and he just left with his hands, leaving me alone to worry about those people."

"It's all right now. They must be afraid that their own family will encounter such a situation. If they have clues, they will definitely investigate carefully." Tian Luo took a piece of cut watermelon and gnawed it down. Although there were no refrigerators and other refrigeration tools in ancient times, it was completely possible in summer. Put the melons and fruits in cold water and freeze them. After the iced melons and fruits are taken out, they can also relieve the heat. Today's watermelons have been chilled by Zhao Laoshi. Take a bite, and the coolness of the watermelon will immediately drive away the sweltering heat.

Luo Ying saw that Tao Yuan was eating happily, so she picked another big one for Tao Yuan, and said to the side: "I also hope that this troublesome thief can be in our village, so that there is no need to be afraid. It’s still fluffy, Fulai’s brat, he’s still not at home every day, which makes me afraid to be home alone now.”

Zhao Laoshi, who was so devoted to eating watermelon, saw that his daughter-in-law was scared, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Isn't Fulai running a medicinal food shop with Luo Er? Now that Luo Er knows that you miss you, don't scold Fulai. Said, if you are afraid, when I am not at home during the day, you can go to Luo Er's house to take care of your son of a bitch, and it will be over."

Now the busiest spring planting has passed, and the work in the paddy fields is not busy in summer. Luo Ying, who was just about to scold Zhao Laoshi for being heartless and ignorant of loving his wife, when she heard the words "goudan'er", she had a feeling A few sullen faces turned into smiling faces at an extremely fast speed, and she said kindly: "Hey, I won't be afraid if anyone talks about Goudaner and Tao Tao to me, so that's it, from now on I will I'm going to your house, Luo'er, and I'll help you look after the child, the livestock at home are almost gone, so I don't have to worry about it."

Tian Luoyin and Luo Ying's words reminded him of the incident of child loss that Lin Hutou had told him before. For some reason, he suddenly linked the time of the loss of livestock in the village with the time of child loss in the town. A man called Zhao Laoshi outside, and asked Zhao Laoshi to take Tian Luo and Tao Yuan to the threshing field to check whether his legs were injured.

The afternoon sun was so hot that people couldn't keep their eyes open, especially the wheat threshing field, which is the flattest place in the whole village and the place with the most sunshine. Tian Luo and Tao Yuan stood there for a while, the two of them He was also very cooperative with Li Zheng and the others' inspections.

After Lizheng checked everyone, he ruled out everyone's suspicions. At the same time, Tian Luo felt that this matter was not as simple as everyone imagined, so Tian Luo gave Lizheng some advice. Young men should also be more vigilant and keep the door tight.

At the critical moment, no one said any gossip. Everyone believed in Tian Luo's opinion and followed it. After all, there is only such a promising doctor in the village. Everyone thinks that Tian Luo's brain is the best, and his words are also the most useful. .

Due to the hot weather in the afternoon, Lizheng saw that Tian Luo had finished speaking, so he planned to let everyone go home to rest, but he didn't want three women to appear on the east side of the threshing field.

The three women all knelt on the ground when they saw Lizheng's "plop", and your words made the scene extremely chaotic again. Lizheng tilted his head to listen to those women talking, stunned He didn't understand a sentence, he rubbed his forehead unbearably, and shouted at the women, seeing that the scene was quiet again, he reminded sharply: "If you have something to say, say it one by one, you all say it together Just like the hen laying eggs in the coop."

The crowd present, with their years of sensitivity to the excitement, immediately realized that there was still excitement to watch, and all of them stopped in their tracks.

Those three women couldn't care less about those spectators now, they still knelt on the ground and exchanged glances with each other, and elected a representative to tell the whole story.

The representative was a young woman dressed in commoner clothes. Everyone called her Li Shi. She cried with snot and tears, and was out of breath when she spoke, "Li Zheng, my child is lost. , not only my children, but even the children of the two elder sisters are gone, what should I do!"

After Tian Luo heard what Li said, he couldn't help but stopped, and pulled Tao Yuan back in front of him, signaling him to wait a little longer.

If losing chickens and ducks could be regarded as a trivial matter before, then losing a child is different. Combined with the incidents of losing children in the town, Tian Luo became even more curious about this matter.

Li Zheng was hurt by the crying of these women headed by Mrs. Li, he touched his forehead unconsciously, and asked directly: "It's still daylight now, why are you so sure that the child is lost, and the child is lost?" Where did you go to play?"

"Although our farm children are a bit wild, they all know that they have to come back to eat at noon after going out in the morning. Besides, we have asked the old men at home to look for them all over the village, so we are in the mountains, but we told them before But no matter what, the children can't go up the mountain privately, they can't..." When Li said this, she covered her face and started crying, and the two sisters behind her, as if they were infected, also started crying.

Just when the scene was once again filled with crying, a little girl with a small bun, holding a cloth bag in her hand, hugging her inner thigh, raised her head and said, "Grandpa, Brother Gangzi and the others said to chase after me." There are footprints."

The footprints mentioned by the little girl are well known to everyone in the village. Everyone originally planned to catch the owner of the footprints in the dark, but they didn't want these little brats to take the initiative to follow them. If they really caught up with the footprints, how many This little boy may be in danger now.

Thinking of this, Tian Luo stopped watching the fun, and stepped forward to remind Lizheng, "Lizheng, we have to find those children by looking for their footprints, it will be dark soon, if we are stupid here Wait, I'm afraid the child will be gone."

Li Zheng's face was condensed, he looked at the women who were kneeling on the ground and crying together, and everyone present, he cleared his throat, "Our family is a man, bring something that can defend yourself, let's follow Look for footprints."

In this way, Tian Luo and Zhao Laoshi joined the child-finding brigade. As for Tao Yuan, he was sent home directly by Tian Luo. He didn't want Tao Yuan to suffer along with him.

We kept walking along the footprints, but the footprints were broken at the foot of the mountain, so we had no choice but to go up the mountain.

On the way to the mountain, Tian Luo and Zhao Laoshi walked side by side, carefully observing the plants and trees that he was extremely familiar with on weekdays, but now in the dark night, that sense of familiarity was replaced by a sense of strangeness.

From time to time, there were calls of birds and beasts in the woods, and occasionally wolves howled. Everyone was a little afraid of meeting wolves in the woods, so when they were looking for children, they only divided into two teams, with more than ten people in one team and one Head south and head north.

Naturally, Tian Luo and Zhao Laoshi were assigned to a team. Zhao Laoshi was worried that Tian Luo would not adapt to the mountain road at night, and reminded Tian Luo to be careful under his feet from time to time.

The other young people in Yu Tianluo's team also followed Zhao Laoshi's instructions and walked the night road. They didn't forget to use torches to detect the surroundings. After an hour, most of the mountain was searched, but everyone hadn't found the child yet. .

In order to find the child, they could only bite the bullet and continue to search the other half of the mountain. The mountain that everyone searched before is a mountain that hunters and drug farmers often come into contact with, while the other half is rarely touched by people because of its dense forests and steep and unstable mountain roads. .

If it weren't for the emergency this time, everyone would not have gone to that mountain. Just when Tian Luo and his group set off towards the mountain, there was a scream not far away.

This scream was particularly abrupt and miserable in the quiet summer night. Tian Luo and Zhao Laoshi looked forward by the light of the torch and found that the screaming person had fallen into a pit.

Fortunately, the pit wasn't very deep, and Li was calmly taking out the rope to pull him up, but he heard the person in the pit shout, "There's something in here, didn't I find a treasure?"

The screaming man who fell into the pit was still complaining about his bad life, but found something in the next second, and laughed, but the laughter didn't last long, and then turned into a loud scream cry.

"What's the matter with you? I can't get up, if I don't get up, I'm leaving!" Li Zheng, whose eyes were red and bloodshot from staying up all night, really couldn't stand the ups and downs of his voice, and he gestured to retract the rope as he spoke.

I could only hear the screaming man inside begging for mercy: "I'm going up, I'm going up, there are all children's skulls in there, pull me up quickly."

After Tian Luo heard the man's words, he stepped forward and pulled him up quickly, and saw the skulls glowing with cold white light through the torch, and he fell into deep thought.

At this time, Li Zheng also came up, and when he saw the skull inside, he said he was guilty, and then reminded Tian Luo, "Don't read it this late at night, I will report it to the police tomorrow."

"Well." Tian Luo joined the army again after finishing speaking, but this time he stopped talking. He thought about this series of strange events along the way, but still had no clue, just as he wanted to talk to Zhao Laoshi When he saw Zhao Laoshi making a silent movement, he followed Zhao Laoshi's line of sight, and he found a tree with rags hanging on it, and then looked deep into a big tree hole. Inside was three crying children.

These children are the ones that we searched for all night. Now they are hugging each other and weeping silently. They are obviously frightened by something. Li is trying to ask what happened to the children, but these children Now no one is willing to speak, in desperation, Li Zheng had no choice but to give up, and ordered everyone to take their children home.

It was already midnight when we brought the children home. Everyone saw that the children were still silent, so they had to drag their tired bodies home to rest.

When Tian Luo arrived home, Tao Yuan was still awake, so he leaned against the loquat tree in the yard and waited for Tian Luo. When Tao Yuan heard Tian Luo's footsteps, he put down the carpenter's knife in his hand and raised his head. He smiled softly at Tian Luo, and put the coat in his hand on Tian Luo, "I warmed up lotus root porridge for you in the pot, go and drink some, lotus root porridge is easy to digest, and you won't sleep after a while uncomfortable..."

These common-sounding words are the sound of nature in Tian Luo's ears, and they are the driving force for him to live. He has encountered too many strange things today, and now when he hears Tao Yuan's warm chatter, he suddenly feels that even the whole world It's not normal, he still has another person who will never change, that is Tao Yuan.

Tian Luo silently stepped forward and hugged Tao Yuan, then said sullenly, "Your body is so warm, let me hug you for a while."

Tao Yuan, who wanted to continue to urge Tian Luo, smiled and let Tian Luo hold him. The shadows of the two overlapped under the moonlight.

The author has something to say: Thank you for the little friend who gave us the nutrient solution with a touch of sorrow~ Be careful!

In an ancient village, a row of bloody footprints appeared in the farmer's house. Is it an ancient curse, or was it done maliciously?
