Cartilage [Republic of China]

My head hurts, like tens of thousands of disturbed flies buzzing endlessly, I can almost keep my ears shut.So he didn't care what he said, took a sip of water, and subconsciously, under Gao Xieyang's excited gaze, spit it back into the bowl.

29. Yazi Mountain

Zhu Yanren probably inherited Ji Yun's suspicion.I always feel that Gao Xieyang drugged his food.In order to solve this heart disease.He ran out every day in three periods: early morning, afternoon, and evening, and distributed a mouthful of dry food to the wild dogs in the field.Then he followed up and found that the wild dogs were still alive and kicking, so he ran back and shared the remaining overnight cakes with Xiao Zhao.

After a few days like this, it was difficult for Gao Xieyang to know.Almost all the wild dogs in this area gathered in the fields around the house.Start calling early in the morning every day.

Gao Xieyang made a decisive decision, and with three confidants, he wished Zhao and Zhao two.Plus a little girl with two braids.Squeeze into that iron-like jeep to openly occupy another big house, and threaten Zhu Yanren: If you feed the dog again, don't eat his mother's food!

Zhu Yanren didn't believe him, so he got up earlier in the morning, ran along the river with pancakes in his arms, and fed the dogs at the foot of a distant mountain.He was lying on a big banyan tree by the river, looking at the dog sticking out its tongue under the tree. The muffled sound of "bang" frightened him, and the big branch he was clinging to shook suddenly.The dog also barked and jumped out, running away.

He shrank his shoulders as much as possible, letting the branches block his body.Resting his chin on the branch, he cautiously looked across the river.At the foot of the mountain on that side are piles of thatched houses.The refugees didn't know where they went, and there was an exchange of fire between two teams by the river.He was very familiar with the first team, which was a motley crew from the high brigade.The other team is plainly dressed and is a regular army.

Gao Brigade has irregular "sweeping policies" and "search strategies", and it should be a coincidence that they ran into guerrillas from the regular army.Seeing Gao Lu's defeat, Zhu Yanren's eyes filled with tears, and he couldn't wait to clap his hands and applaud.So he took out the messy pancake in his hand, turned it sideways, bared his white teeth, took a bite, and began to chew happily.

When the gunshots stopped over there, a brave man looked out from the haystack with the grass on his head. When he got out of the haystack, he poked the corpse left by the first brigade on the ground with a steel fork and shouted loudly.Zhu Yanren also slipped down the tree and shouted to them from a distance on the other side: "Victory! Victory!"

First, a child found him, yelled, and grabbed the adult's trouser leg.The adult thought he was going to make trouble, so he slapped him, but the slap didn't land on the child's buttocks, and he saw the person the child was pointing at first.He stretched the old man beside him, and the old man poked the woman next to him.A series of applause disappeared.

Everyone looked curiously and cautiously at the half-old child who was also curious and cautious.A trembling old man came out from behind the crowd. He propped himself on the ground with a walking stick older than himself, and stretched his neck like a snake trying to cross a river: "Little boy, where did you come from? We Not from the village?"

Zhu Yanren shook his head, the old man waved behind him, and another limping person emerged from the crowd.Seeing that person's shadow, Zhu Yanren was stunned, he so hoped that that person was Yi Jiage.When the man stood up, it was just a young man with a crippled leg.And it's the left leg that's limping.He pursed his lips, feeling sad for a moment.

The young man ran to the bank and pointed to a string of sharp stones in the river: "jump over here!" They thought he had escaped.

Zhu Yanren thought for a while, ran to the river and walked over the string of stones cautiously, like walking a tightrope.He jumped down, startled by the big slap that the young man stretched out.

The young man should have beaten a snake before, Zhu Yanren thought so when he twisted his wrist.Twisted by that strong hand, he faced the young man. He was indeed young, with a child's face. The two teeth at the door were left half and half half. I don't know what kind of twists and turns the story has experienced.When he saw Zhu Yanren's face, he let go of his hands in embarrassment, lowered his head, and rubbed his hands back and forth: "You are so handsome..."

Zhu Yanren touched his face with a wrist covered in several layers of mud guiltily: "No, no, no..." Before he finished speaking, he was choked by the young man's next words. The young man: "Talk to the lady in the city Like."

Zhu Yanren's brain buzzed, and it was reflected in his head, his face turned red.He was angry, but the young man thought he was ashamed. He thought it was just right, because he had never seen such a good-looking man, and only heard that the young lady in the city was very beautiful.The child was more curious, biting his finger and looking at him.The adults thought that Zhu Yanren looked strange, and they were afraid of getting into trouble, so they hugged the child and turned away to prevent them from looking.They followed the old man to their respective houses.

Zhu Yanren didn't have the same knowledge as them, took out the cake in his hand, and took a bite like a wild dog.The young man opened his mouth again, Zhu Yanren was afraid that he would spit out some ivory again, so he immediately stopped him by holding the cake in front of him, imitating the accent of those people just now: "Little boy, do those guerrillas come regularly?"

The little boy blinked and shook his head.Zhu Yanren stretched his neck and swallowed the mouthful of cake: "Then is there anyone who comes here more frequently?"

"Yes!" Xiaoya slapped his head and pointed to the mountain to the north: "Beard!"

Zhu Yanren showed half of the unchewed yellow pancake, and excitedly said, "Beards are fine too! When will you come?" He looked at the small hill to the north that could barely be called a mountain, and was a little puzzled by such a bare mountain. Can you hide bandits?But he was afraid that others would look down on him because of his ignorance, so he swallowed his doubts back.

Xiaoya slapped her thigh and smiled so much that she showed her broken teeth. She couldn't help but glance at Zhu Yanren's pancakes: "Come here when you run out of food! About once every ten days or so."

"Then you won't run?" Zhu Yanren held his mouth with the back of his hand, stretched his neck again, and swallowed the hard-to-chew pancake.

"There's no food here, and it's useless to run away. They can't eat people." Xiaoya led him to continue walking, turning along a ditch filled with mud and water, facing a straw shed.Barely able to block the wind.He looked at Beishan and said: "Everyone who can run here has run away, and the rest are kept for a few more breaths. When the peace is better, we will run south together."

"There is also a war in the south now," Zhu Yanren sighed, and suddenly remembered, and gave him the rest: "Here you eat, I'm not hungry." Xiao Ya didn't even think about it, took it and put it in his mouth Tuck it in.While stuffing him, he led him into the hut, pointed to the ground: "Sit...sit!"

Zhu Yanren found that although his teeth were broken, he had good teeth.After a few mouthfuls, it was chewed and swallowed.Zhu Yanren sat cross-legged on the ground and looked at him with a smile: "Do me a favor, I will bring you food every day from now on."

The little boy stared at a pair of huge white eyes on the black face, and agreed without thinking: "Okay, okay, okay!"

Back in the compound, he took out the remaining pancakes from the wooden box under the bed and gave them to Xiaoliang: "You can eat them, eat them quickly!"

Xiao Zhao looked sick, he touched his head worriedly: "Not feeling well?" Xiao Zhao grabbed his hand and shook his head: "Gao Xieyang came again this morning and asked if I would use a gun, he Said that he doesn’t support idlers here.” He was about to cry as he said that, “He also said that he would follow me to suppress the bandits.”

Zhu Yanren passed the cake from the other hand to his mouth: "Didn't he say it every day? Are you really burnt out?"

"No, I can't take it anymore, I want to run away!" Xiao Liang sneezed in a way that didn't fit his spirit.Zhu Yanren immediately covered his mouth, and put a finger on his mouth: "Shhh! You can go out, and you are not allowed to go to the front line. Be obedient, you have a fever."

In the past few days, Zhu Yanren has figured out the rules of Gao Lu's going out. Every morning after 9 o'clock, he will go to military training or harass the surviving refugees.He set the time right and swaggered towards the backyard.

The guard in the backyard happened to be absent, and he was wondering when he heard footsteps behind the wing.Maybe it was coming this way, so he rushed into the wing room.Hiding behind the door, secretly revealing a pair of big eyes, looking around the yard, there is indeed no one.

This is a bit strange, Zhu Yanren thought, it is impossible for Gao Xieyang not to guard against him.The footsteps behind were getting louder and louder, he looked around the wing room, went to the desk, picked up the paperweight and hid behind the door.

The footsteps were getting closer, his heart was beating fast, and then he slowly raised the paperweight in his hand.The footsteps tightened, as if they were running, but they were getting farther and farther away.

That person was indeed the guard in the backyard, and he was the only one there today.As he walked towards the door, he glanced into the side room.But he didn't do anything and ran straight to the door.

Zhu Yanren breathed a sigh of relief, put down the paperweight, and pulled out a piece of rice paper from the table.After seeing this household, it turned out to be a literate person.I didn't expect to see something like rice paper.But the brush had already dried into a lump, and he patted his hands lightly to brush off the dust stuck to the paperweight.With the palm of his hand sweating, he melted away the brush, and barely wrote a few vague words on the paper.Finally, he folded the rice paper into four and put it in his pocket.

Then he walked quietly to the rear window.This window was connected to the outside, but it was nailed, and a lot of wood was jammed crookedly.He took out the stone that had been in his pocket earlier.Slammed towards the pile of rubble outside.As soon as the bricks cracked, the guard at the door really became alert, drew his gun, and walked out cautiously.

Seeing him go out, Zhu Yanren walked behind him, turned to the right, and ran towards the stinking latrine.It was a long time before he came out from there with a face of tranquility.The guard was scratching his head and came back at this moment. When he saw him, he looked at him in admiration with unconcealable disgust.Zhu Yan Renjue
