This small book is very delicate, with a pink outer cover. After opening it, there are two photos inside. It is just like the photos that many girls keep in their wallets, but this book may be very important to Su Xiaomeng. Keep it close to your body. If
If it weren't for her abnormality, I might not have discovered it yet.
What attracted me was one of the photos.
In that photo, there were two children, a boy and a girl. The girl was about three or four years old, and the boy was about ten years old. They were standing there upright. The boy was holding the little girl's hand, and the other was
She was holding a ball of marshmallows in her hand. Maybe all children’s childhood dreams started with balls of colorful marshmallows. The little girl looked very happy, small, innocent, and smiling extremely happily.
Although the little girl in the photo is only three or four years old, I can still vaguely tell that she has the shadow of Su Xiaomeng on her face. It is a bit unreliable to judge an adult from a photo of three or four years old.
But the feeling in my heart is very strong. If she is the only one in the photo, then I will not have any doubts. There is nothing wrong with cherishing a childhood photo. Many girls do this.
What makes me hard to believe and extremely puzzled is the boy next to the little girl. The boy looks about ten years old, with a thin body, pursed lips, and not much expression on his face. In his teens, he is the most lively.
Although he is young, there is no innocence or vitality in him. He looks like a man who has lived a long time, standing in front of the camera with a straight face and a bit dull.
Looking at this child, my thoughts immediately flew back to Dayanpo back then. When I was in contact with Mr. Blind, there used to be a strange child that attracted my attention and curiosity, but at that time I had a lot to do.
, and as Blind Third Master "died", I didn't dare to stay too long, but that child left a very deep impression on me. I clearly remember that when I escaped from the Dayanpo underground with Qingyu
, I met him on the way, and he said to me calmly: I remember you.
The little boy was already a few years old at the time, so I could easily tell that the person holding the little girl in the photo was the little boy I had seen in Dayanpo.
My heart suddenly felt cold. Looking at Su Xiaomeng who still hadn't woken up, I felt a little cold and a little painful. After getting along with her for such a long time, I have slowly trusted her and accepted her.
, I want to believe that she is just a heartless girl who does not understand the world. I want to believe that the first encounter with her because of bronze was an accident, but this photo completely shattered my ideas and made me disappointed. I was extremely disappointed.
.
I looked at Su Xiaomeng. She was getting better. The bird's beak inscription on her chest was continuing to fade, and it had become a vague shadow, staying on her heart. Although I was disappointed, I still didn't want any accidents to happen to her, but for
I didn't know how to deal with the beak inscription that appeared on the body like this. I could only let it fade away slowly. Her body was soaked in water, and the mountain breeze was blowing. She was trembling slightly. I stretched out my hand and hesitated.
After a long time, I finally held her in my arms.
"Brother, how is she?" Fan Tuan was observing the situation and turned around to ask me. Those enemies may have been lured away by Biaozi, and it was always quiet in the mountains.
"I'm not awake yet." My suspicion of Su Xiaomeng immediately shifted to Fan Tuan. Anyway, I always felt very awkward.
"Change to another place. The wind is too strong here and you will be covered in water."
I didn't say anything, just hugged Su Xiaomeng and walked away. We turned a corner and walked to a small col next to the mountain road. We found a place there. We were soaked and felt a swish of cold when we stopped. Fan Tuan picked up
I got some dry firewood and lit a fire on the spot. I couldn't take off my clothes to bake, so I took off my shoes and wanted to dry my feet. After hesitating for a long time, I still couldn't bear to watch Su Xiaomeng lying naked like this.
Next to her, he moved her towards the fire, took off her shoes and socks, and placed them by the fire to bake.
When I took off her socks, I was a little surprised. I saw that Su Xiaomeng was missing a toe on each of her feet. The wounds on the broken fingers had obviously been there for a long time, and they were cut very neatly. They should be
It was deliberately amputated. My heart suddenly became a mess. I immediately thought of the distant Badu Ancient Village and the disabled people in the entire village. I don’t know the reason why Su Xiaomeng amputated two toes, but I always think of it.
I can't help but associate her with those people in Badu Ancient Village.
I looked at Fan Tuan next to me, and he was watching me silently. When the two people's eyes collided, Fan Tuan was obviously a little unnatural, and turned his head to the side to add fuel to the fire.
"Do you know what's going on?" I asked Fan Tuan, pointing to Su Xiaomeng's feet.
"I don't know." Fan Tuan shook his head desperately. The anger in my heart was getting bigger and bigger. I wanted to grab him by the collar and question him, but when I saw the injuries on Fan Tuan's body, I couldn't bear it. Several times in a row, he
They all accompanied me in my misfortune, causing constant wounds.
I suppressed the anger in my heart, and Fan Tuan didn't dare to speak. Su Xiaomeng began to regain consciousness, talking nonsense in her sleep, as if she had a high fever. I touched her forehead, it was very cold. Then I looked at it again.
Look, the bird's beak inscription on Su Xiaomeng's heart has become so faint that it is almost invisible. Although he is full of anger, he still can't help but think about it. The bird's beak inscription directly affects the human body. Biaozi and I have appeared a long time ago.
Such a situation has happened before. However, Su Xiaomeng's condition is more serious. Once possessed by the bird's beak inscription, he will lose consciousness.
Su Xiaomeng murmured in her sleep for a long time, her hands started to grab randomly, and her body was shaking. I made up my mind not to care about her, but in the end I couldn't help it, so I slowly stretched out my hand. The moment he grabbed my hand, Su Xiaomeng seemed to immediately
It became much quieter, and within five minutes, I opened my eyes.
"Wake up, wake up!" Fan Tuan hurried over, probably wanting to lighten the atmosphere, but I was not in the mood at all and looked at him silently. Fan Tuan was annoyed, laughed dryly, and sat back in his original position angrily.
"I'm cold..." Su Xiaomeng said softly. The wound on her head had not scabbed and her face was pale. I got some hot water for her and watched her drink it slowly. I thought
I first confirmed the loss, so I didn't get angry or ask questions immediately. I didn't help her sit up until she finished drinking the water and her condition was better.
"Where are Lao An and the others?" When Su Xiaomeng woke up, he probably found that he had taken off his shoes and socks, and his expression immediately became a little unnatural. While changing the topic, he looked around for his socks.
"They will be fine. They may contact us later." I handed her all the shoes and socks and said, "How are they? Are you okay?"
"It's okay, I just have a headache." Su Xiaomeng quickly put on her shoes and socks, sat down by the fire, and smiled at me.
"You dropped this book." I handed the small book to her, also smiled, pointed at the photo, and said: "This girl is silly and ugly, who is she?"
"Disgusting." Su Xiaomeng snatched the small book and said, "Can't you see? It's me, well-behaved and smart."
"Who is that stupid little boy next to you?"
"How annoying!" Su Xiaomeng couldn't tell that I was already deeply suspicious and wary, so he patted me and said with a frown, "My brother."
"Really?" I slowly lit a cigarette and said, "Did your brother grow up in Dayanpo, Sichuan?"
In an instant, the smile on Su Xiaomeng's face suddenly solidified, replaced by a kind of shock after being attacked. She looked at me blankly for a long time, barely curled her mouth, and said: "You...you are talking about
What......"
"This kid grew up in Dayanpo. He is the grandson of Blind Third Master." I smoked a cigarette and said, "If he is your brother, then what is your relationship with Blind Third Master? At that time, Old Anti
When it came to blind third master, you pretended not to know anything, why is that?"
"You..." Su Xiaomeng looked very embarrassed, as if his lie had been exposed in front of someone, his face flashed green and red, he hesitated for a long time, but did not say a word.
"I have always felt that no matter how we met, no matter what happened, your heart is kind, so my guard against you became less and less day by day, until I saw this photo." I was so sad that I couldn't say it.
Uncomfortable and extremely depressed: "You lied to me."
"No, really not..." Su Xiaomeng was anxious and wanted to explain, but the photo was right in front of her. She might not even know that I had been to Dayanpo thirty years ago.
"Not mentioning these, what is your relationship with Badu Ancient Village?"
"Badu Ancient Village?" Su Xiaomeng was stunned, and immediately argued: "It doesn't matter, it really doesn't matter."
"What about your feet? Where are your feet!" I threw away the cigarette butt and stood up. The feeling of being deceived and fooled instantly broke out. I couldn't control it anymore. I asked in a low voice: "Don't talk about your feet.
What kind of surgery did you have?"
Su Xiaomeng was speechless. Fan Tuan hurried over to break up the fight, pulling me and saying: "Brother, don't get angry. If you have anything to do, tell me slowly..."
"You get out of the way too!" I pushed Fan Tuan away and aimed my spear at Su Xiaomeng.
"Beifang, don't be anxious." Su Xiaomeng pulled me and said, "Listen to me and speak slowly."
"Go ahead, I want to hear a reasonable explanation." I gasped and tried to calm myself down, but the fire in my chest kept rising.
"I don't know how much you know, and I don't plan to hide some things from you forever. I think you will understand one day, so..." Su Xiaomeng lowered his head and fiddled with the notebook in his hand.
He said: "You are right, my brother grew up in Dayanpo, but there is no blood relationship between my third grandfather and me."
"What you said is very confusing."
"This is all true..."
"Put away your truth! Leave! Leave now! I don't want to see you again!" I couldn't accept the deception, nor could I accept the ambiguous explanation given by the other party after being deceived. I could no longer suppress my anger, so I stood up and pointed.
Ye Sha next to her: "Right away!"
"North, don't be angry, don't be angry..." Su Xiaomeng and Fan Tuan came to persuade me, but who can understand what I feel in my heart? An orphan who has been without parents since he was a child, grew up in loneliness and adversity,
I may be very sensitive to feelings. I couldn't control my emotions and was shaking with anger. Fan Tuan couldn't stop me. Su Xiaomeng almost cried. She held one of my arms tightly and said, "Listen to me, okay? Listen to me."
explain......"
"What else can you say? Tell me? What else can you say?"
"Let's start with my feet." Su Xiaomeng pulled me, fearing that I would leave if I let go. She lowered her head and thought for a while, and said: "Beifang, to be honest, if I hadn't lost two toes, I might have been there just now.
