spring dream

004

The cherry blossoms in Yu Chunyuan were in full bloom, and the fragrance could be smelled through the high walls. Xiao Er bought a ticket at the ticket office with Wen Qi, who was dozing off, and kept complaining: "It was you who insisted on seeing the cherry blossoms. After sleeping all the way, it’s time to enter the garden, and if I don’t wake up, I won’t be able to see it.”

Wen Qi withdrew his hand from Xiao Er's neck, rubbed his eyes, climbed off his back, held onto his cuff, walked two steps and nodded from time to time.

Xiao Er began to grow rapidly in the second year of junior high school, and was already 1.8 meters three in the first year of high school. Wen Qi went to school a year later, and was still Douding's height in sixth grade.I had no choice but to pick him up and walk away. There were many tourists in Yu Chunyuan, so as not to bump into him again.

As soon as Wen Qi touched his little brother Xiao's arms, he couldn't bear the drowsiness immediately, his head slipped on his shoulder, and he fell into a deep sleep.

It turned out that Xiao E enjoyed the spring scenery of the garden all by himself, and finally woke up Wen Qi with a few pieces of cherry blossom red bean glutinous rice cakes. While eating, the little boy raised his arms and swept across the row of cherry blossom tree trunks above his head, his hands full of fragrance.

"Smell." Wen Qi covered Xiao E's mouth and nose with his palm, holding him so hard that he couldn't breathe. He giggled non-stop. Seeing Xiao E's frown, he immediately pouted and acted coquettishly when he let go, "You said Never get angry with me."

Xiao Er resigned his fate with a "hey", he was afraid that he would be haunted by this little ghost to death in this life.

After leaving the park, the two moved to both sides of the road with the passenger flow, and planned the next itinerary together.Wen Qi wanted to go back to the teahouse to listen to operas. Mr. Xiao intends to convert the "Heya Teahouse" into an "Old Town Restaurant", specializing in Beijing-style snacks and pastry specialties. He is afraid that he will not be able to hear it in a few months.

At this moment, the breeze was blowing, and the temperature in the air was a bit cool. Xiao Er lowered his head to zip up Wen Qi, buttoned his sweater and hat, "So you like listening to operas?"

"En." Wen Qi nodded, took a breath, his abdomen swelled, his dantian exerted strength, and the sound made the people around him jump.Not to mention, Xiaoer Tianmao is watching a play in a teahouse, and it is not as good as Wen Qi's imitation. There is no stumble in the whole lyrics, and the lyrics are smooth and coherent. With a wave of his little hand in the air, the reception is neat and crisp .

Some people clapped their hands, some people applauded, but Wen Qi couldn't hear these, and just stared at Xiao Er, waiting for his evaluation.Xiao Er's nose was sour, and he was extremely proud. He rubbed Wen Qi's soft brown hair with distinct strands, and said in response: "Okay, then let's go back to the teahouse and let the aunts and sisters sing for you."

Wen Qi grabbed Xiao Er's clothes with one hand, and pinched a piece of glutinous rice cake with red flesh and white skin with the other: "I will sing it to you after I learn a new song from them."

Xiao Er's heart was very itchy, and he raised his hand to grab Wen Qi's earlobe, rubbed it twice, his fingertips were hot: "You don't need to learn, I can't get tired of listening to this one."

After guarding the side of the road for a long time, there was no taxi in sight, and the subway entrance opposite was overcrowded. Xiao Er didn't want Wen Qi to be crowded, let alone make him wait.At this time, a black car stopped in front of the two of them, and the window was slowly rolled down, revealing the driver's frightening face: "Children, where are you going? Uncle can drive you there, the fee is not expensive."

Wen Qi raised his head to seek Xiao Er's opinion, Xiao Er frowned and thought for a while, hesitating.From the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of the child's pitiful eyes, gritted his teeth, opened the back door and stuffed Wen Qi in first, then got into the car and sat next to him: "How much is it to go to Zhalan Street?"

"Ten yuan." The driver put the lock on the car, turned the wheel violently, turned around and walked in the opposite direction, "I take a super-shortcut, which saves time and money, and it's very fast."

Xiao Er held Wen Qi in his arms, and didn't think much about it. Hearing this, his first reaction was that the driver was a good person, and they were very lucky.

The car was driving at a constant speed on the elevated road. I had exhausted a lot of physical energy just now when visiting the park. The hot air in the car made my bones soft and skin tired. Both of them felt a little sleepy, and the incense on the front of the car might have a calming effect. Wen Qi, who was fast asleep, his eyelids were getting heavy. He looked at the driver's face through the rearview mirror, and found that the man had put on a mask at some point. He could only see thick and long eyebrows, and a protruding right brow bone. Mole.

Later, Xiao Er and Wen Qi cuddled together and slept for a long time.

The ear was suddenly quiet, the skin was cold to the ground, and there was a pain in the body, almost the moment he opened his eyes, Xiao Er woke up.His back was stepped on, his arms were tied behind him with hemp rope, and his ankles were wrapped around his ankles several times. His coldness ran down his spine to Tianling Gai, and he called out in a trembling voice: "Wen Qi! Wen Qi!"

"Brother Xiao Xiao." Wen Qi responded weakly, his hands and feet were tied as firmly as he was. After seeing Wen Qi, Xiao E's blood suddenly flowed backwards, and a burst of anger burned in his chest.He turned his head, his eyes were fierce under his bangs, he stared at the driver with his jaw raised, his facial muscles became extremely stiff with anger, "Who the hell are you?"

The driver didn't answer with a cold face, and left them to go to the compartment to make a phone call.Xiao Er took the opportunity to look around and found that they were in an abandoned factory with nothing usable around them, and the mobile phone in their pocket was also taken away. There are people standing guard outside.

Xiaoer prayed that the residents around the factory would notice them, and tried to shout to attract rescuers: "Ah! Ah!" He kept shouting, "Is there anyone! Is there anyone! Help us!"

In return, the stick fell on his face and body, causing him to gasp in pain.Wen Qi struggled to move his body in front of him, and was hit by a stick, and Xiao Er's clothes were soaked in nosebleeds.

Feeling hot and humid in his chest, the corners of Xiao Er's lips twitched: "Fuck/You guys!"

"Bang", another stick was swung by the ear. Fortunately, Xiao Er tilted his head in time due to his body's instinctive reaction, and the stick didn't stick to his temple, otherwise...he didn't dare to think about it.

The ferocious-looking man's muscles stretched under his short sleeves. He was a trainer. He bared his teeth impatiently and said, "If you dare to speak out again, I'll kill you."

Wen Qi leaned on Xiao Er's body, his white and tender face was covered with blood, and he kept nodding: "We're silent, we're silent..."

The driver was still trying his best to argue with the person on the other end of the phone, and Xiao Er had tinnitus in his left ear, so he had to turn sideways to listen with his right ear, and vaguely heard them discussing the price of the "goods".

"Healthy, the viscera/organs have been checked, no problem."

"I don't fucking care about that much, hurry up and call the advance payment, and I will find a way to get it for you."

"They're still children, keep them clean, stop talking nonsense."

traffickers.

The 13-year-old Wen Qi has no concrete understanding of these three characters, and Xiao Er has already learned from various channels how terrifying such people are.The news that he had seen and heard could not stop popping up in his mind. He curled up his numb limbs, his breathing became heavier, and he felt cold all over.Since he was a child, he had never tasted fear at all, but at this moment, hot tears flowed through the wound on his face, causing him to bite the skin of his mouth in pain.

Something was tearing at the twine around his wrist.

Xiao E was startled when he came back to his senses, and turned his head to look at Wen Qi. Seeing that his face was red, his mouth was full of blood, and his teeth were broken, he mumbled, "Go! Brother Xiao Xiao, go!"
