Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 5231 Dead End
Changping Village is backed by Mianniu Mountain.

Mianniu Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, majestic and boundless, with many peaks in the mountains, many peaks are as straight as the sky, like a ladder to the sky.

Under normal circumstances, the villagers at the foot of the mountain went to the mountain to collect firewood and hunt, and they all shuttled at the foot of the mountain or in the surrounding forests.

Even when Yang Ruoqing led the transport team to cross the mountains to Xiushui Town in the south, she tried to avoid those dangerous places, and would rather take a longer detour and climb more relatively low peaks, and try not to touch the precipitousness of the mountains. .

In the precipitous place in the deep mountains, there are few people and wild beasts.

But the place where Zhang Xiangzi was found this time was at the entrance of one of the dangerous places.

This place has a name, called Partridge Ridge.

The shape is like a partridge, the cliffs on both sides are like birds spreading their wings, and there is a narrow mountain entrance in the middle.

Zhang Xiangzi was lying in a pile of bushes at the entrance, the blood under his body stained the withered grass and fallen leaves on the ground.

When Yang Huazhong led a group of people with hoes and hatchets, and led some seventy or eighty local dogs from the village to the scene of the incident, he saw Zhang Xiangzi's broken body devoured by wild beasts. More than a dozen men, including Yang Huazhong, couldn't help vomiting.

Yang Huazhong managed to get himself to stand still, and asked the villager beside him who reported the news: "This place is so remote, how did you find him?"

The villager said: "I have been hunting around here for the past two days. I heard that there are black bears in this area recently, so I dug a big trap and squatted there for two days. I came to look at the trap before, but the black bear didn't see it but saw it on the ground. Lie down alone."

Yang Huazhong frowned. The villagers were indeed hunters in the village and lived by hunting.

With a gloomy face, he bit the bullet and approached the bushes.

Behind him, most of the people did not dare to approach, but there were also a few brave ones, such as blacksmith Luo and others, who followed Yang Huazhong into the bushes and looked around Zhang Xiangzi.

Blacksmith Luo shook his head, with a regretful expression on his face: "He's such a big boy, it's a pity that his parents dragged him to such a big size, and he was bitten like this by a wild beast..."

Daniu also sighed: "This dead man is too much of a spoiler, if he is carried back to the village in such a state, his family may not be able to bear it."

Chang Gen said: "If you can't take it anymore, you have to take it back. You can't let him die in the wilderness. This Xiangzi is also willing to die. Even if he wants to escape, he will flee in the direction of Qingshui Town anyway. Why run into this deep mountain and old forest?"

Yang Huazhong's face was frighteningly gloomy, and his voice was a little hoarse: "It's probably because he wanted to go over the mountains to the south. Back then, Zhang Manzi followed the transport team over the mountains to the south. Zhang Xiangzi also wanted to escape there, but he didn't know the way to go here. coming."

As a result, he encountered a beast and sent himself to a dead end.

The man covered half of Zhang Xiangzi's body with a big bed sheet he brought from home.

Blacksmith Luo said to Daniel Changgen: "Let's go and get the stretcher here, let's get down the mountain first!"

They turned around to get the stretcher, and when Yang Huazhong covered Zhang Xiangzi with a sheet and got up, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of something falling on the grass beside him.

The thing was stained with blood, Yang Huazhong's pupils shrank slightly, he picked up the thing calmly and stuffed it into his pocket.

Soon, Blacksmith Luo and the others brought the stretcher over. The others did not dare to touch Zhang Xiangzi, but only dared to watch from a distance.

It was Blacksmith Luo, Yang Huazhong, and Changgen Daniu who worked together to lift Zhang Xiangzi onto the stretcher.

The others huddled together and watched from a distance, and saw that Zhang Xiangzi had only one leg left and no arm, and saw that the intestine was dragged on the stretcher, and then it was twisted several times by Daniel with a branch and stuffed back. into Zhang Xiangzi's stomach.

Someone covered their mouths and retched again...then the sound of vomiting continued one after another.

The fact that Yang Huazhong took the villagers into the mountains to find Zhang Xiangzi had spread throughout the village, including old Zhang's family, when they left.

Everyone vaguely heard that something happened to Zhang Xiangzi when he was running away. They didn't know exactly what happened, whether he was dead or alive, and there were different opinions anyway.

So at this moment, when Yang Huazhong and his group came out of the mountain carrying a stretcher and just crossed the bridge over the river at the foot of the mountain, a large wave of villagers came out of the opposite village to watch the excitement.

The leader is Mrs. Huang, followed by her eldest son Daxiang and Daxiang's wife.

"Xiangzi..."

Huang yelled from a distance, and ran towards this side stumbling.

The two villagers who walked in the front were neighbors of Zhang Laizi's family. When they saw Mrs. Huang approaching, they hurriedly stopped Mrs. Huang.

"Ms. Xiangzi, don't go there, don't look."

It's okay if you don't say this, but once you say it, Huang's whole body will be bad.

Before, she had always thought that Xiangzi was discovered because he was injured. He fell and broke his leg or something.

Hearing what the two neighbors said at this moment, she froze for a moment, and jumped up to look at the stretcher behind her.

"Why can't I watch it? That's Xiangzi, it's my son! Let me go!"

Huang yelled hard, but two neighbors dragged her to the side of the road forcibly so that the stretcher could pass.

When the stretcher passed by, Huang first smelled a bloody smell, and then saw a sheet covering the person on the stretcher from head to toe.

Under the stretcher, blood was still dripping.

Huang's body suddenly froze in place as if someone cast a holding spell, staring straight at the stretcher passing by, her mind went blank and her eyes couldn't move.

It wasn't until... until Daxiang's wailing and the sharp cry of Daxiang's daughter-in-law sounded from the crowd, that Huang finally regained her soul and voice.

"Xiangzi, my son..."

She suddenly gave birth to a huge force, pushed the two neighbors away, and chased after them like crazy.

One of the neighbors was pushed down to the ground and hurriedly yelled to the side carrying the stretcher: "Ms. Xiangzi has passed, be careful..."

Before the words were finished, the person carrying the stretcher was knocked into the air by Mrs. Huang, the stretcher slid off the person's shoulders, and Xiangzi's body rolled to the ground...

The originally noisy crowd of onlookers suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

It was so quiet that a needle could be heard.

The tranquility was broken by Huang's 'Jie Jie' laughter like a night owl.

I saw Huang with disheveled hair, surrounded by Zhang Xiangzi's broken body, clapping his hands, and dancing with his feet like a witch dancing in a big show, laughing.

"What's wrong with Mrs. Xiangzi? How can you still laugh?"

"It's not a real joke, it's crazy because I can't stand the blow..."

The crowd finally exploded.

Zhang Daxiang rushed to Huang Shi to support Huang Shi, the man cried bitterly: "Mother, my brother is gone, you are sad, don't be like this..."

Huang's eyeballs looked straight at Zhang Daxiang in front of her, and seeing her eldest son crying so hard, her eyeballs finally turned.

Pushing Zhang Daxiang away, Mrs. Huang threw herself on Zhang Xiangzi who was on the ground, hugging his bloody head with ears and nose bitten off in his arms, trembling all over, tears seeping from his closed eyes: " My son..."
