The thin man finally returned to his house. His wife was leaning against the door, looking through the autumn water, and was about to close the door. Unexpectedly, her husband had gone home at this moment. Otherwise, he was thinking of finding a few people. I went to Lu Town to look for him. If he couldn't find it, I planned to give up. Otherwise, living as a widow in a deserted village would only be an advantage for Uncle Feng and others.
Just as he was about to enter the house, he heard his wife say that Uncle Wang was dead. He had passed away a day ago. No, Uncle Wang's family came to the deserted village. Because there were not enough manpower, they wanted to find a thin man to help. , it happened that the thin man was not at home, so he left in a hurry to do other things.
"Really? In other words, when I went to the market in Luzhen, Uncle Wang was no longer alive?" the thin man asked.
"Yes, it is said that when I was rowing a ferry, I saw a child in the river, so I jumped into the water to save the person. The flood was rising at that time. From time to time, the child no longer surfaced and actually disappeared forever. "I'm done." My wife replied, feeling very regretful, because she felt that Uncle Wang was a good person anyway, but how come good people don't live long? It's like the sky has no eyes.
The thin man recalled the scene when he was crossing the river. At that time, he was preparing to cross the river, because the big boat had left. The only way to return to the deserted village was to walk. If he walked, he had to cross the river first, but he was crossing the river. At that time, I found the ferry parked by the river. It was so quiet and a little scary that I didn't even dare to get on the ferry. However, because I was anxious to go home, I didn't care about it anymore and jumped on the ferry. , then I discovered that there was no one on Uncle Wang’s ferry.
Looking back at this moment, the thin man couldn't help but feel scared. At this moment, he remembered that he had not paid for the ferry. He thought that no one would watch the ferry, so he wanted to take advantage and simply refused to pay. Who knew that Uncle Wang was already a He is no longer alive, otherwise, how dare he not give me money?
The thin man thought about this, so he went down to the river carrying a bundle of paper money. He had to make up some money for Uncle Wang, otherwise he would owe others money, so he felt a little guilty anyway, so he went down to the river. , quietly burned the paper money for Uncle Wang. Although it was not much, it was enough to make up for the ferry fare he owed. After burning the paper money, he let out a long sigh and felt much better. Seeing that the night was already dark, it was inconvenient. If you stay by the river any longer, you may encounter something nasty and frighten yourself for no reason. This is also not a good idea.
On this day, the thin man left the house and had to go to work in the mountains. Otherwise, it would be impossible to stay at home every day for a long time. Without money, his woman would no longer want him and would just follow someone. It's inappropriate for someone to leave and go to a distant place. Where should I go to find her?
When I was working on the mountain, it was getting dark and I was ready to leave, because for a while, there was no one at all on the mountain. I was the only one who stayed busy in the mountain and wanted to see more. Earn some money for your own woman, and you cannot let your woman live worse than others. Otherwise, without a necklace to wear around her neck, this is unjustifiable anyway, and may even lead to an inferiority complex. As a husband, how can you How can you be so irresponsible?
A little tired from working, the thin man sat on the mountain, because it was relatively high here and could be seen almost everywhere within a few miles of the deserted village, including Lu Town. At this time, he heard something coming from Uncle Wang's house. A lot of people gathered in front of the door, busy with Uncle Wang, sending this good man off for the last time.
But at this moment, the thin man saw Uncle Wang standing in front of him with his head lowered. He couldn't quite see his true face. He seemed to be afraid to see people. He just stood beside the thin man without saying a word or walking away. , as if the thin man owed him something. Otherwise, why would he be standing in front of him for no reason at dusk when the sky was dark?
"Is it Uncle Wang?" the thin man asked, because Uncle Wang is usually a kind person and a person in a deserted village. During the transition, if he has no money, Uncle Wang will not want to cross the river in vain.
Hearing the thin man ask this question, Uncle Wang remained silent. He just stood quietly in front of the thin man, as if he wanted to ask him for ferry money, because the thin man did not pay when he crossed the river. This was not possible for someone who made a living by ferrying. For Uncle Wang, it didn't seem appropriate, because Uncle Wang also had to eat and see a doctor when he was sick. At this time, crossing the river was in vain and he couldn't go anywhere. So when he passed away, he came to the thin man. The money owed by the thin man must be recovered. In this case, it would be more peaceful to go there.
The thin man thought that he could settle the matter by burning a little paper money by the river, but he didn't know that it would not work at all. Uncle Wang was not a fool and knew that the paper money was not valuable at all. Otherwise, he would not have gone to the hospital at this time. The thin man is here to beg for money. No matter what, the thin man has to pay for the ferry. This is only natural.
However, the thin man refused to pay. When he saw Uncle Wang standing in front of him, knowing that he was just a dead man, he was not afraid for a moment. He spat and left immediately, not daring to stay any longer, otherwise , I am the only one on the mountain, compared to this thing, there is something wrong with this anyway.
Seeing the thin man running away, Uncle Wang did not chase him at this time, but just stood at the edge of the field. For a moment, he had no choice but to give up. As a good man in a deserted village, Uncle Wang did not act like this. The thin man was holding a knife in his hand at this time. He carried it with him when he went up the mountain. He was afraid of encountering some gangsters and beasts. If he didn't have a self-defense device, he would die. Just in case, this He brought this knife with him, ready to deal with those harmful things at any time.
The thin man was just a dead man because he bullied this thing. There was no need to say anything to him, not to mention giving him money. If he didn't beat him to death, he would already be a favor to him. At this time, he still wanted to ask himself for money, but there was no way. The thin man had to be so stingy, otherwise, with his little strength, he would not be able to survive in a deserted village, and he would not even be able to protect his woman.
Uncle Wang did not chase the thin man as he fled, and could not catch up, because as a dead person, he was worse than a patient. How could he have the strength to chase the thin man? Then he slowly walked down the mountain, trying to get back the money this thin man owed him. Otherwise, he would have to pass away and go to the underworld alone, trekking through mountains and rivers with very little money. It is also inappropriate.
However, seeing that the thin man refused to pay, there was nothing he could do about it. He had to move on and decided not to give up the money. I was just passing through this place. Otherwise, if I hadn’t met this thin man, he would have paid me a few cents. Of course, he wouldn’t have looked down upon him. Since he had met him, he didn’t want to come back. If people knew about it, would he say that he was a little bit? Silly?
The thin man ran away, stumbling around, and finally got rid of Uncle Wang. Otherwise, if this person caught him, he would be so frightened that he might even faint to death. Fortunately, , I finally escaped from the mountain, because almost no one could be seen on the mountain at this time. If I stay here any longer, what should I do if Uncle Wang gets angry or wants to fight someone? ?
As soon as he entered his house, the thin man quickly closed the door and never dared to open it again. After closing it, he realized something was wrong because there was nothing to resist him. If Uncle Wang wanted to break into his house, he would But what should we do? Then he went out of the house and walked for a while with his thin body. Of course he didn't dare to go far. Then he rolled a round stone into the door of his house and leaned it against the door. In this way , even if Uncle Wang comes, he will definitely not do anything to himself.
When he went to bed at night, the thin man told his wife that he wanted to hide in her crotch because of fear. Otherwise, if Uncle Wang came and caught him, this would not be a good thing. If it doesn't happen, he might be caught by Uncle Wang and sent to the underworld directly. Of course, for a thin man who made such demands, he was severely beaten by his wife at that time. He was such a despicable person. Who else could he be? So he didn't even plan to pay attention to this man.
The night was already deep, and the thin man was lying on the bed. He felt something was wrong at this time. If he wanted to successfully avoid Uncle Wang's arrest, the best way was to find a place, a hole-like place to hide in, otherwise , may die in the hands of Uncle Wang, but what kind of hole can be drilled at this time, let alone the hole, to have such a room to shelter myself from the wind and rain, this is God's special kindness to me, don't I know it? Is it enough?
Just as the thin man was lying on the bed thinking about how to avoid Uncle Wang, he suddenly found that he had fallen into a hole. With this hole, all this would not be a problem, because as long as he guarded the entrance of the hole , then Ren is a huge disaster, and there is nothing he can do about it.
In this cave, a green light shines on the top of the cave, making everything look very clear. You can even see something in front of you, but because the light is not enough, you can't see it clearly. I just felt that there was something like this hanging in the air, so I stepped forward to take a look, what the hell is this, isn't it a coffin?
The thin man was very frightened and hid here and there. He originally wanted to stay in a place where spring flowers were blooming, but he ended up here for no reason. He even saw such a coffin hanging in the air. He didn't know how he did it. There was no rope or support, and I was floating in thin air. I thought to myself, this is too ridiculous. Am I mentally ill?
His bad luck has reached a point of hopelessness. At this moment, the thin man thought that all his bad luck was probably due to this thing, so he held a grudge against it. , picked up a stone on the ground and pointed it at this object. The stone hit the coffin, and the object, after receiving the stone, flew away from the entrance of the cave. From time to time, , then I don’t know where it drifted.
At this time, I saw that the sunshine outside the cave was very good, so I came out of the cave to see what was going on outside. However, at this time, I found a venomous snake twisting and sliding past my eyes. This thing was very strange. It was huge, almost as thick as a basin. What should I do if it was bitten by such a thing? Fortunately, the thin man did not dare to provoke this poisonous snake, but at this moment he made up his mind again, why not take this snake? If the snake is killed, you can have a meal of snake meat.
Thinking like this, he passed a stone and hit the poisonous snake. At this time, he turned around, raised his head, aimed at the thin man, and took a bite. Fortunately, the thin man had a stone in his hand, and the snake had I was afraid to take it too seriously, otherwise, if I bite the bullet right now, this thin man would definitely die.
…
"Get up, it's daylight, and if you don't go to work in the mountains and keep thinking about hiding in my mother's crotch, what kind of man can you be?" At this time, the thin man's wife woke up the thin man, and even hid in his crotch. A slap on the body, for such a lazy person, if he wants to live a good life, he will probably not be able to do so.
The thin man opened his eyes and looked outside. He found that he had just had a dream. He did not live in a cave, and he did not see poisonous snakes or coffins. He sighed deeply. He went up the mountain and followed his wife to work. But on the mountain, people were working happily. From time to time, some people sang folk songs and shouted oh ho. The atmosphere was very lively.
