after death strike

Zhou Xiaowu nodded, and made a promise with him.

"Xiao Wu! Where have you been? Come here!" A woman's voice suddenly sounded in the room.

The loud voice made Zhou Xiaowu flinch, looked up and saw Li Zhizhi waving at him, and immediately ran to the house, stopped at the door, waved to Li Zhizhi, and then went in again.

Li Zhizhi stood there for a while, but he didn't hear any scolding, so he calmed down and walked out.

The welcoming team outside the door had already gone back with Zhou Ming and others, only Ah Wang still obediently stayed where he was, waiting for him.It was a hot day, and he didn't even find a tree to cover him. At this time, his face was flushed red, as if he was drunk.Although he had no expression on his face, Li Zhizhi could tell from the fingers he unconsciously grasped that this person had already started to get irritable.

Just don't lose your temper later.Li Zhizhi couldn't help being happy.Although usually silent and quiet like a herbivore, this person's temper is much bigger than it appears on the surface.

"Why so long?"

Ah Wang's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Li Zhizhi, as if he had endured for a long time, he lost his composure, and immediately walked towards him with big strides, looking at him eagerly, as if he was about to die in the next second. Sue Li Zhizhi for not letting him follow up.

His eyes were too miserable, and he felt like an abandoned dog.Li Zhizhi had no choice but to hold back a smile and patted his hot cheek as comfort, and then walked forward slowly.Ah Wang hurriedly followed him and walked side by side with him.

"I met a kid and played with him for a while."

Li Zhizhi thought about it, and still told Ah Wang that Zhou Xiaowu found him abnormal.

"...I couldn't help but give him a hug, and he found out. Is it bad luck? But it doesn't matter, the kid is worthy of forgiveness." When he spoke, his expression was relaxed and he didn't care, as if Zhou Xiaowu would hold his hand in the next second. He didn't seem to mind that it was publicized.

Ah Wang was silent for a while, then asked, "Is that Zhou Xiaoling's younger brother?"

Even though he came late and was an outsider who had nothing to do with the Zhou family, he was able to collect the information accurately.Li Zhizhi is used to his awesome intelligence-gathering ability, and he is also very used to it-this way, he doesn't have to spend more time explaining when talking to him, and the communication is really convenient and easy.

So Li Zhizhi didn't ask Ah Wang how he knew, but just nodded.

"I was about the same age as him at that time." Li Zhizhi said with emotion, many memories floated in his mind.

"He's different from you." Ah Wang said, he didn't like Li Zhizhi comparing himself with others. "He still has parents."

Li Zhizhi froze for a moment, then turned to look at him, only to meet a pair of deep black eyes hiding pity.He immediately turned his head back uncomfortably. "You are right. Li Zhizhi, whose parents died at the age of seven, is much more pitiful than Zhou Xiaowu, who has both parents." His tone was very calm, neither self-deprecating nor malicious, just stating a fact.

"No," Ah Wang held his hand, "You still have me."

Li Zhizhi closed his fingers one by one to hold his hand, and sighed slowly: "It's a pity that I'm already dead, otherwise my heart will beat faster for you when I hear this sentence."

His tone was very gentle, but what he said was completely indifferent.

He was ten when he met this man, not seven when his parents were murdered.He was a loner at that time, because his grandparents and uncle who adopted him passed away within three years, so no relatives dared to adopt him anymore.That's why he was surprised and curious when he received a call from Zhou's family.

At first, those people just secretly called him Sangmenxing behind his back.After the last grandmother who really loved him died of illness, this malice turned into a sharp knife and stabbed at him.

At that time, the town where he lived was very small, and the rumors about him being a loser became more and more intense. Even the classmates in the school did not dare to approach him, as if he was the source of some high-risk disease.

At this moment, the only one who dared to approach him, and no matter how cold his face or words of repulsion and resistance, still stuck to him was Ah Wang.

When he was young, he was withdrawn, paranoid and unlovable. When he grew up, he treated others like a fool. Only Ah Wang knew the truth behind his hippie smile, that negative, pessimistic one who neither accepts the world nor himself. Li Zhizhi.

This friendship seems to have appeared in order to make up for his lack of family affection. He is grateful and cherishes it for 15 years.But sorry, that's all.When he chose to give up everything, this rare and precious friendship was also left behind by him.

Before committing suicide, he only sent a message to Wang to tell him to collect his body, but he didn't expect that he didn't die.After waking up, he didn't know whether to cut himself twice or pretend nothing happened, so he just sat in the bathtub full of blood and thought about life, and then he was rushed over to find his ah Hope to hug tightly.

The other party tremblingly grabbed the clothes on his back, and after a while, he burst into tears, and his whole body pressed against his neck like a trapped animal, almost fainting from grief.It was the first time that Li Zhizhi knew that he had such a high status in his heart, and while being moved, he couldn't help but pity him.

Because he voluntarily gave up his life, he has lost the qualification to live.

From that day on, Li Zhizhi seemed to be split into two people.One of them carried out the habits of his life, getting along with Wang as he did when he was alive, joking with him, quarreling with him, and not hiding his true thoughts; The evil spirit that came out stood on a high place and looked at Wang who felt sorry for him with pity and indifference, and tried to push him away with cold words, and further away, it would be best to stimulate him to draw a line with himself, the dead man. .

Life and death are boundless, why doesn't he understand?

Ah Wang immediately understood the deep meaning hidden in his words.

"You're not dead, you're still standing in front of me, you're not dead..." He trembled his lips, his face turned pale, and his eyes were full of pleading.In Li Zhizhi's view, his pain was even more real than what the couple just acted out.

It was as if if he denied it, he would cry immediately in the next second.

Li Zhizhi wanted him to recognize the reality, but Ah Wang's expression was so pitiful that he couldn't bear it, so he could only sigh, touched his bandaged right wrist, and stopped bringing up this topic.

The living chose to escape, and the dead had no choice but to remain silent.

Back at Zhou's house, before Li Zhizhi went to ask Zhou Ming about the situation, Zhou Ming took the initiative to find him.

Facing Li Zhizhi, he showed that apologetic look again.After experiencing his anger at Zhou Weimin and his wife today, Li Zhizhi couldn't help feeling that he was the one standing on top of a pyramid in this village.

The ceremony is absolutely impossible today, but the most important thing is whether or not this marriage can be concluded later, is the finding of the corpse.

Today Zhou Weimin and his wife said that they called the police. In fact, this village is too remote, and there are only two policemen in the village.And it was too difficult for these two people to find the corpse in this vast mountain, not to mention that the police had to ask the villagers for them to see if someone had really stolen the corpse.

Because of the prevalence of yin relatives here, although it sounds unbelievable to steal corpses, it still exists.Especially young and beautiful female corpses are very difficult to find. I am afraid that people from the next village will steal the corpses and sell them to other people, and this possibility is extremely high.If this is the case, the difficulty of finding the corpse will be even more difficult.

So apart from the two village policemen, the two families decided after discussion that they would go into the mountains to search for corpses starting today. One more person would bring more hope. As one of the young and middle-aged labor force, Li Zhizhi was naturally pulled into the corpse-hunting team by Zhou Ming. among.

After listening to Zhou Ming's narration and pleading, Li Zhizhi finally understood why they were willing to help search for the corpse, even if Zhou Ming's corpse would rot, they still had to wait to find the corpse to marry.

All the causes are the word custom, full of feudal dross.

They've all been involved anyway.Li Zhizhi bowed his head and thought for a while, then took the initiative to ask Ying to say: "Cousin, look at my thin arms and legs, I am afraid that I will suffer from heat stroke when I go up the mountain to search for corpses in this hot day. Why don't you let me follow the village police? It can also play a role in the brain.”

His words were playful, and his expression pleaded correspondingly. Zhou Ming agreed after thinking about it, probably because he was afraid that he would really suffer from heat stroke, and the rules in the village were not as strict as those outside, and he was asked to follow the village police to handle the case No big deal either.

"There is also my friend, he is not familiar with the place of life, so let's come with me." Li Zhizhi also assigned Wang's affiliation, anyway, even if that guy was assigned to find the corpse, he would definitely sneak back to find him , it's better to bring him with you from the beginning, so as not to cause trouble.

Zhou Ming nodded, called the village policeman, told him to come to Li Zhizhi later, and went out to find the corpse.

Time is urgent. In the summer without embalming treatment, finding the corpse one day earlier can avoid damage to the corpse earlier.

Not long after Zhou Ming left, the village police came to the door.His surname is also Zhou, and his name is Zhou Zheng. He is also somewhat distantly related to Zhou Ming's family, farther than Li Zhizhi.

This young man looks very young and energetic, a head shorter than Li Zhizhi, with two canine teeth when he smiles, and has the same sunny and healthy complexion as Zhou Ming.As soon as he entered the door, he looked around fiercely until he saw Li Zhizhi.

"Hey, you are the two people Brother Ming mentioned, right?" He stepped forward and greeted Li Zhizhi, "Just call me Ah Zheng." It seemed that he was a very familiar type.

Li Zhizhi had a good impression of sunny boys like him, so he introduced himself to him with a smile: "My name is Li Zhizhi, and you can call me Xiao Li." Pointing to the person silently following him, "As for this guy, you can call him Ah Wang."

Zhou Zheng moved his curious eyes to Ah Wang, and looked at him for a while, but was finally defeated by his deep eyes, and shrank back with some fear.

"Then I won't say much, I'll take you to ask Zhou Weimin and the others first." The village policeman Zhou Zheng walked in front, and Li Zhizhi and Ah Wang walked behind him side by side. "Actually, they just called the police just now. I couldn't figure it out. The body disappeared in the morning, but they had to wait until noon to report the case."

Originally, I wanted to hide it, but I didn't confess the truth until I found out that I couldn't hide it.Li Zhizhi speculated about Zhou Weimin and his wife's true thoughts maliciously, and his impression of those two people was really not good.

The author has something to say: Zhou Zheng: Just call me Ah Zheng.

Li Zhizhi: (Whistling) Tsk, isn't this the same name as someone?

Ah Wang: (extremely irritable)

Li Zhizhi: Ah□□ sounds better than Ah Wang.

Ah Wang: ...Don't call him that!

Li Zhizhi: (asking knowingly) Why?

Ah Wang: (poor) ... This is obviously my exclusive title
