What happened to Zhang's mother was not reported in the village.

Even when she came down from the mountain, she was caught by several villagers doing farm work and saw her walking like a duck with blood on her legs.

It's not that this kind of thing hasn't happened before, it's not new.

In this small village standing in the deep mountains with only one big river leading to the outside, the victim is Omega, and that is Omega's fault. He couldn't suppress the pheromone, which made Alpha irrational.

If the victim is a Beta, it's self-inflicted. Without pheromone, it's useless everywhere. Who would touch it? It's not because you begged someone to do it.

If the victim is an Alpha, then he is a piece of trash. It is best to close the door and cover it tightly, otherwise it will only make people laugh out loud if they are discovered.

Therefore, Zhang's gossip did not become a value for the big guys to relish.

Zhang's mother came out after staying at home for a few days. She was still walking around in front of and behind each house all day long, talking nervously and giggling a few times as usual. , Her face was scratched several times by branches or stones, and if not treated, it became infected and festered, giving off a foul smell.

Although it is not as ferocious as Widow Zhou, it is also disfigured, unsightly, and can scare people unexpectedly.

With crazy behavior and an ugly face, she has changed from "sister-in-law", "Zhang's daughter-in-law" and "Xiao Zhang's mother" to "crazy woman".

As for the old Zhang family who was bitten to death by the younger one, the younger one who beat out his brains and escaped and was drowned in the river, and the Liu family's unreasonable disaster... It's only been a month or two, and everyone's sympathy has been shattered by firewood, rice, oil and salt. , Most of them are talking about walking around and not taking care of their hearts.

If it takes a few years, ten years, 20 years, if the years can't be washed away by then, there will only be rumors left.

Just like the Liang family who once harmed others and also harmed themselves.

However, the villagers no longer cared about the affairs of the Zhang family and the Liu family, but they still had an unshakable prejudice against Liang Baiyu. The resentment was not to mention how strong it was, as if they were the victim.

The feelings of fellow villagers and even supporting each other disappeared quickly.

The incited, inexplicable, follow-up sorrow and hatred lasted a long time.

The first snow of the year came two weeks later, small and accompanied by wind and rain.

The snowflakes drifted for most of the day and melted when they landed, as if they had never been here before.

Liang Baiyu, who was lying by the window, was very disappointed. He leaned against the cold and hard window lattice, slowly fell asleep under the wind and rain, and waited for the next snow.

In his hand was the penultimate candy left.

In the evening, when school was over, Cai Xiaojing passed by behind Liang's house, screaming and ran to the window.

Liang Baiyu was woken up, he moved his eyelids covered with small raindrops, and said lazily: "Stop shouting, I just fell asleep."

"Then you go to sleep in the house. It's so cold lying here. It's uncomfortable to have a cold and stuffy nose. It's even more troublesome to have a fever. There are very few medicines in the small clinic in winter..." Cai Xiaojing babbled.

Liang Baiyu frowned lightly: "It's long-winded."

Cai Xiaojing shut her mouth quickly, not daring to make her big brother unhappy by making any noise. Once he was upset, she felt that she had made a big mistake.

The little girl's hair has grown and been cut short. The family put the bowl on her head and cut the mushroom head along the edge of the bowl. The hair quality is still like straw, which is quite malnourished, but her facial features have opened up a bit. , a pointed chin has been exposed in the fleshy baby fat, and the shadow of a beautiful woman can be seen. She is full of vigor and clear eyes, like a sprout in spring, it will change every day, and there are infinite possibilities.

The youthful breath of life blows into the window with the wind.

Liang Baiyu raised his head and raised his eyelids: "What did you learn today?"

Cai Xiaojing's face collapsed: "Why do you still ask me to study?"

"Just ask, is winter vacation coming soon?" Liang Baiyu stretched out his hand and touched the rain on her umbrella, "Is there any exam?"

"The final exam." Cai Xiaojing said distressedly, "my head will explode. If I fail to be the top three in the class, my mother will swell my legs and use a towel."

"Are you going to take the top three exams? The goal is so big." Liang Baiyu frowned, "Where's your father, won't you stop your mother?"

Cai Xiaojing's eyes faltered: "My dad... he doesn't go home very often, he's working."

The level of lying is poor.

Liang Baiyu took off the little girl's umbrella and flicked the drops of water on her fingertips: "Then from today onwards, you will come to me every day after school, and read a text to me as a review, okay?" ?”

Cai Xiaojing was stunned, and hurriedly said: "I will recite it now, I will recite everything I learned today!"

"It's so good." Liang Baiyu praised, "It's amazing."

Cai Xiaojing was shy but happy. She held an umbrella with one hand, grabbed the strap of her schoolbag with the other, looked at the rubber boots on her feet, and recited the text.

She is very calm, and her pronunciation is also very good. She is a hard-working child. There is a light of hope in her, which will guide her out of this feudal land sooner or later.

The man in the window fell asleep again.

"Why do you always sleep lately..." Cai Xiaojing opened her umbrella, muttering, and spent a long time trying to find a way to cover it in front of the window, blocking a lot of wind and rain. She rushed into the rain with her schoolbag.

Is a kind person.

It's the twelfth lunar month, children count with their fingers, how many days are left before the New Year.The older ones have to help with the housework.

Yang Lingling picked two large buckets of manure to water the wheat in the fields, and Zhao Wenxiao helped her pick them.

The women who were planting lettuce in the vegetable field saw the two walking together, and immediately their waists and legs stopped hurting, and they started to knock on the spot when they got excited.

"Doden is right."

"If that vixen hadn't stepped in, Boss Zhao and Teacher Yang could get married by the end of the year."

"How are you looking for the boss and Mr. Yang's younger brother? Didn't you see him walking around?"

"If you don't get along, my sister is more suitable."

"..."

"Hey, the Liang family hasn't come out much recently, do you think he's going to die soon?"

"When he first came back, he poured out the medicine dregs once a week, but now he pours it out in two days, maybe he won't be able to survive this year."

"I saw him this morning, and he was very ruddy."

"It's really evil. I always feel that he has learned some sorcery outside, the kind that sucks people's life..."

"..."

The person involved, Liang Baiyu, was distracted in the kitchen. The rice jar in front of him was almost empty, with only a small handful of rice left.

"I have to buy rice, please." Liang Baiyu reluctantly went out.

Liang Baiyu stepped on the small slope and said to the tail behind: "Little friend, don't follow me, or you will be spanked by your parents when you go home."

The little boy about three years old looked up at him, and said in a crisp voice, "My mother said you seduced my father."

Liang Baiyu laughed out loud, "Your father and I have never talked."

The little boy blinked innocently, and then cursed a very ugly and fluent swear word: "It's a rough approval."

As he said that, he stuffed the long branch in his hand into the ditch, picked up the mud and threw it at Liang Baiyu.

"You kid is really..." Liang Baiyu wiped off the mud with an unabated smile, and smelled the stench on his fingers. He closed his eyes and smelled the wind, and felt that they all smelled the same.

Liang Baiyu shook his head and walked down the slope: "Student Xiaojing is still cute."

More than half an hour later, many people stood by the small pond in front of the large vegetable garden, and some of them were on their way.

Because someone fell into the water.

It was Liang Baiyu who was the object of criticism in the village.

All the busy workers in the vegetable field witnessed this scene. They told others that it was Widow Zhou who pointed at the small pond, and she didn't know what she said, so Liang Baiyu moved forward.

Then, Widow Zhou knocked him down from behind.

Everyone is whispering.

Widow Zhou laughed and waved her hands, with loose hair covering her eyes: "Catch fish! There are so many fish! Catch fish! Catch fish!"

Someone kicked her because she thought she was too stinky, and was stopped by others, "This idiot did a good job."

Hearing the sound, Yang Ming ran over and wanted to go down, his mother slapped him, his ears were buzzing, his mind went blank, and his distracted eyes glanced at the tall Alpha not far away, and he immediately focused.

"You save him!" Yang Ming yelled at Zhao Wenxiao, "Go to the pond and save me Bai Yuge!"

Zhao Wenxiao seemed to rush over from the bed, he didn't have a suit jacket on, only a striped shirt and a black sweater, and the belt buttons of his trousers were in his hand and were not buttoned.

"No water..."

Zhao Wenxiao held the belt, and he heard his own voice say, "I can't swim."

Yang Lingling next to her was swearing at each other, about to eat Zhao Wenxiao's younger brother and scolded: "Stop swearing, didn't you hear what he said, he can't drink water!"

"What the hell should we do?" Yang Ming's eyes were flushed, and he struggled to shout under the obstruction of his parents, "Baiyu! Liang Baiyu!"

People have been drowned in this small pond, and no one usually washes vegetables and clothes here. At most, they just pick up water to irrigate the vegetables and irrigate the field, or wash a spray bucket and a manure bucket.

Now there is a large row of people standing on the ridge of the pond, all eyes looking at the water surface with smaller and smaller ripples.

"Can he water?"

"The Liang family are not all landlubbers, how can anyone know how to swim?"

"Besides, in such a cold day, if the water quality is good, it will freeze for a while."

"He's been in the pond for a long time, he's dead."

"Definitely dead."

"..."

There is a river outside the village, and there are large and small ponds in the village.

But on a deadly cold day, it wasn't my own family who fell into the water.

Those who cared about Liang Baiyu's body didn't want to make themselves suffer.

Zhao Wenxiao stared at the surface of the water motionless, the belt on his hand became tighter and tighter, leaving red marks, and he finally took a step forward.

Suddenly a hand grabbed him.

Yang Lingling persuaded with a serious face: "Don't be stupid, you don't know how to swim, if you go down, you will only put yourself in danger."

Widow Zhou, who was squatting by the pond, twisted her hair with her fingers, stretched her head towards the pond, and kept making a mouth shape, repeating it over and over again.

——yu

Those who were close to her noticed it, and said casually: "Is this called 'fish' or...'yu'?"

"It must be fish. She has been stupid for so many years." The person next to her sneered, "Didn't you hear her calling to catch fish just now? There are plenty of fish in the pond. Liang Baiyu went down and can eat enough."

"Is the corpse going to float later..." Before the crowd could finish speaking, there was a loud noise in the pond.

"Wow—"

A man emerged from the water beside the vegetable field.

Pale face, bloody lips.

He turned his head, the blood coughed up from his mouth trickled down his chin, his eyes were scarlet, and his black hair clung to his scalp, neck, and collarbone like a bath.

In the cold winter months, the current was constantly turbulent. He swam to the shore and slowly approached the villagers who were watching him.

Like a water ghost crawling up from hell, looking for someone to kill before it turns into ashes.
