In the autumn of 1950, Xian Er went to the town's school to become a Chinese teacher, and her father was a private school teacher, but unfortunately died in the Kuomintang Civil War a few years ago.
Xian Er remembers very clearly that in that year of the crisis in North China, although his father was a private school, he was also well aware of the great righteousness of the nation and cheered for the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. On the day of the winter solstice, the family was sitting around the stove eating dumplings, when suddenly a group of Kuomintang soldiers broke into the door and tied up the father, and then the whole village was expelled to the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, and the father was hanged from the tree. A small Kuomintang officer asked, "Old Man Li, if you don't say anything, how did the Communist Party contact you?" The old man did not say a word, because he did not know the communist people at all, and he propagated the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party purely because he heard that the Communist Party could fight devils and save the country.
"Come on, shoot this old man." The petty officer shouted.
But no one paid any attention to him.
"Come on, shoot this old man for me!" The petty officer yelled at his men.
Still no one paid any attention to him.
"Wei Dayong, fuck me!!" The petty officer pointed at the newly enlisted recruit in front of him and shouted.
Wei Dayong did not move.
"Wei Dayong, are you fucking deaf?" The petty officer pulled out his pistol and put it on Wei Dayong's head.
Wei Dayong still didn't move.
"Are you fucking deaf?" I'll shoot without doing anything more. The petty officer slammed his pistol on Wei Dayong's head. After that, the gun sounded, accompanied by a long roar.
She was only 5 years old, but she would never forget the determined look in her father's eyes before he died.
After liberation, because she knew some words, Xian Er wanted to teach in the town. However, the family did not agree, saying that it was too far away and unsafe, and Liu Dabiaozi, the demon king of the Western Mountains, had been coveting her for a long time and had come to the door many times to find trouble. But the family couldn't help her, so she had to go. On the first day of school, Xian Er encountered the father-killer of that year, when she took up the stick and beat her, and the others pulled her away, and she pounced on the person and bit her. The principal thought she was crazy, and after some questioning, he learned that the person Xian Er had bitten was named Wei Xiaoyong, and his brother had been a Kuomintang soldier. Later, although things opened up, Xian Er had never said a word to Wei Xiaoyong, and even when she walked, she would twist her face to the side.
Entering the winter, it gets darker and earlier, the road home is so dark, Xian Er often carries a horse lamp alone to walk the night road, the days are long and not afraid of anything, but I think there are always people behind to follow them to the village entrance, listen to the footsteps, this person should not be very strong, she guessed that this is not Liu Dabiaozi's person, afraid of the family to worry, she did not tell the family about this matter.
Before the New Year, the school held a New Year's Day party, and the dilapidated school has not been so lively for a long time, and many adults have also come to watch the show. After the event, Xian Er cleaned up the venue before leaving with a horse lamp, at this time, there were snowflakes floating in the sky, so light and so quiet.
Walking on the quiet path, Xian Er was more convinced that someone was following her, but who was that? If Liu Dabiaozi's people were to come and kidnap her, she would not hesitate to jump down the deep ditch or crash into a stone on the side of the road. Just like that, I walked forward one deep and one shallow.
When she reached Yatang Bay, a gunshot sounded, which frightened her into squatting on the ground, and after a few minutes, she touched herself, and there was no blood on her body, so she dared to get up and continue to walk home, but the horse lamp was already out, and she could only feel the darkness and leave.
A few steps forward, someone grabbed her, knocked her to the ground, and began to tear her clothes, no matter how much she shouted, it was useless. After the gunshots rang out, the scattered lights in the distance were also extinguished. Just let a bastard be happy on herself, she was not willing, so she bit his neck to death, biting out blood. Then there was a slap, maybe two or three...
Early the next morning, people found Xian Er's body in a dirt pit on the side of the road, red striped and naked, with a few traces of blood hanging from his mouth, and the white snow that spread over the mountains set off Xian Er so beautifully and holyly. Beside Xian Er, there was also a corpse, also red-striped, with its back to the top, and people opened it to see that it was Wei Xiaoyong, who had been shot dead by someone. The fellow villagers spat at him one after another, and scolded one by one in their mouths:
"The brothers don't have a good thing!" "Feed his corpse to the dog!" "Yes, feed his corpse to the dog!" "Feed his corpse to the dog!"
"Feed the dogs!"
Someone prayed and said, "This is all God has eyes, I don't know which way a good man killed this king and a bastard with one shot, and he fought well!" Later, the villagers held a funeral for Xian Er, and many teachers and classmates came to see her off. And Wei Xiaoyong's body was placed in the wild, and no one came to collect the body, allowing him to be eaten by maggots and bitten by wolf cubs.
Since then, the headmaster has discovered that Wei Xiaoyong's lame dog is also missing, which is the only thing left after his brother's sacrifice, and now he has gone with his master.
Strangely, there were wolves all of a sudden in Yatang Bay, howling there every night in the middle of the night, as if crying, frightening the villagers to dare not go out at night. Everyone said that this was Wei Xiaoyong's ghost, waiting to find someone to avenge him. In order to comfort everyone's emotions, the mayor ordered the militia to burn Wei Xiaoyong's body, but the wolf still howled every night. Because he was busy suppressing bandits, the mayor of the town never bothered about this again.
Later, one day, the villagers who rushed to the market found the body of Liu Dabiaozi on the side of the road in Yatang Bay, he was bitten by some beast and died of throat, black blood flowed to the ground, and there was a neat row of tooth marks on the right side of his neck. Underneath the corpse was a wolf, with a dagger in its belly, only the handle of the knife exposed, and the blood stained the wolf's hair red.
Soon, the mayor of the town came with the militia, and the bandit leader died, which was very happy. The mayor said, "Oh, it was the wolf who bit this bandit!" But a militiaman who had been a hunter looked at it and said, "Underneath the corpse is a dog, not a wolf." "This came as a surprise to everyone. Fellow villagers say it is a wolf, and the hunter says it is a dog, and the mayor of the town is worried, how to write a report?
Later, the headmaster found the mayor and said that he wanted to see the wolf, he touched the left hind leg of the wolf, nodded and said, "Mayor, write, this is not a wolf, nor a dog, it is a wolf dog...
