Just after dawn, a few sparrows were chirping on the branches, waking Peach Blossom from her sleep.

She felt as if she had just fallen asleep, but she didn't know that the sun was already higher than the tops of the trees. She suddenly remembered something, because she slept with her clothes on at night, and she sat up as soon as she lifted the quilt.

She listened carefully to hear that there was no movement outside, then turned over and got off the kang, reached for a comb and left the room.

She was combing her hair and just standing on the steps when she saw her mother-in-law coming back from outside the gate, carrying a big bag in her hand.

When the mother-in-law saw Peach Blossom, she smiled and said, "Are you up? You slept very late last night. I wanted you to sleep a little longer in the morning. You young people slept too much, so I didn't call you. The food is already cooked.

Wash your hands and face and eat later."

The meal was finished quickly. Taohua was about to clear the table, wash the pots and dishes, but was stopped by her mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law said: "Don't be too busy. I just wash the pots and pans. You can quickly pack them up and go back to your parents' house."

"There's no need to clean up. I'm not going back to my parents' house to visit relatives. It's just a few miles away by pedaling."

"This child is talking nonsense. After a long trip back to her parents' house, how can she go back with empty claws? People don't laugh at you, and they don't laugh at your mother-in-law for not knowing etiquette." The mother-in-law slipped the bag of things out of the house and said with a smile: "

I went to the market early in the morning,

Apples and pears are very cheap now, so I bought some and bought a pack of snacks from the small shop, see if that’s okay? I’ll give you ten yuan, and you can buy more if you want to buy something on the way. Don’t do it.

Let your mother-in-law say that our family is stingy, haha."

Taohua looked at these things, feeling a constant feeling of soreness in her nose. She knew that just buying these things, plus the ten yuan of "big unity", would cost the whole family at least nearly a month's work income.

She was determined not to take it, but she couldn't force her mother-in-law because she knew that her mother-in-law was also an old lady who wanted to save face and was competitive.

The weather at this time is crisp and clear in autumn. The sun is rising in the east, but the drops of dew on the crops still refuse to disperse; the green gauze tents are surrounded by layers of thin mist. The corn

From time to time, the ground makes a "crack" sound, as if someone is stirring the corn leaves. Maybe it is because of the old leaves. Anyway, it will scare the timid people.

Taohua was riding a bicycle on a dirt road in the countryside. In the middle of the already bumpy road, there were two long deep ruts left by the wheels. The traces of animals' trampling and hoofprints were clearly visible.

Some are big and some are small, some are deep and some are shallow. There is no way to walk inside. Peach Blossom Bicyclists can only go along the roadside. Then they have to walk around and around to find a flatter place, otherwise they will hurt their buttocks.

The deep green gauze tent was gently blown by the autumn wind, just like tens of millions of big insects gnawing at the crops, making a strange "chuck" sound. When each grasshopper was frightened and flew away, its hind legs bounced, and the sound was heard.

rely

The toad made a few "croaking" calls, and the crickets hid behind the quiet leaves and sang "squeaking" a cappella... The crop fields on both sides of the road gathered together to form a ghostly and terrifying "symphony".

Taohua hurriedly rode her bicycle, and saw that there was no one on the road, and she became even more nervous. She regretted not asking someone to go with her. All kinds of people and animals can be hidden in such deep crops. What if they jumped out at this time?

…

She didn't dare to imagine any more, and didn't dare to look at the crop fields on both sides. The only thing she was anxious to do was to hurry up and hurry up.

There was a "Pulling" sound, and several pigeons were looking for food. Just when she arrived not far from them, they were suddenly startled at the same time. Taohua was caught off guard and said "Oh my God", and the person and the car rolled to the ground. She struggled.

She sat up, looked around and saw that no one was around, then cried and quickly helped up the car. She didn't dare to stay here for a long time. She was afraid of animals and bad guys blocking the road and robbing her.

However, the more she feared, the more she feared. Just after she had packed up and was about to continue riding her bicycle, she found someone behind her with his arms crossed on the bicycle looking at her from a distance. However, that person did not

Eager to move forward, he just followed her from a distance. When she walked, he walked, when she stopped, he stopped. When she walked faster, he followed her faster. When she walked slower, he followed her slowly. That person always kept up with her.

a certain distance.

Taohua was even more panicked when she saw it. She quickly crossed her legs and got into the car and kicked a few times. The car rushed forward quickly.

It wasn't until she entered the village that Taohua's nervous heart relaxed. When she looked back, the man had already turned around and was about to go back, but he was still looking here from a distance.

Taohua wondered about this man's intentions, but he didn't look like a bad guy. Why did he keep following her? What did he want to do?

Of course she didn't know who this man was. He just didn't want her to know who he was, so he followed her from a distance, fearing that she might misunderstand him.

When Taohua looked back at him several times, he lowered his head so far away that it was impossible to distinguish his appearance.

However, she was able to analyze it from his body shape. She saw that his body shape was too similar to Liu Haitao's, and she was too familiar with him.

She wondered if this person was really Liu Haitao, it would be even more terrifying, because he tried to take possession of her body last night but failed. Could it be that he wanted to take advantage of her on her way back to her parents' home? If so, how could such a deep crop want to shout?

No one heard me for help, and the more I thought about it, the more frightened I became.

Taohua was suddenly startled and broke into a cold sweat. She looked at this place with no village in front and no store in the back. The car in the panic began to become disobedient and kept leaning to the side of the road, causing her to fall several times.

She was so angry that she simply refused to leave. She said in her heart: Let's see what Liu Haitao can do to me. Don't you want my body? I'll give it to you. As long as you can't kill me, I won't let you go.

.

Thinking this way, she calmed down a lot. She stopped walking and turned around to look at the person behind her, trying to figure out who he was? Was he Liu Haitao?

But when the man saw her standing still, he stopped and turned his back to her, but he refused to go forward.

After coming back for a while, she saw that the man didn't come near her, so she got on the car and started on the road. As she walked, she wondered in her mind, was this man Liu Haitao? What did he want to do?

In fact, Taohua's guess was very correct. This person was Liu Haitao. He agreed to Aunt Liu's instructions and hurried over before even having time to eat in the morning and secretly escorted Taohua back to her parents' home.

Just when Taohua pushed the bicycle out of the door, her mother-in-law Aunt Liu looked at the back of Taohua riding the bicycle and felt uneasy. She suddenly considered that it was late autumn, the crops were already high, and Taohua was alone.

It was very unsafe on the road, and she would definitely be scared, so Aunt Liu walked a few steps to Liu Haitao's house. It happened that Liu Haitao had just returned home from working in the production team in the morning. She asked: "Have you had breakfast, naughty boy?"

Liu Haitao replied: "Not yet. Are you okay, Auntie?"

"When you come back, go to my aunt's place for breakfast. Taohua has gone back to her parents' house by bike. You can quickly ride to see her off."

"Aunt...I...," Liu Haitao said with some embarrassment, "I'm afraid Taohua will misunderstand what happened last night..."

"Hey, just look at her from behind and stay far away from her. Don't let her see clearly. How will she know who you are? Go ahead."

Liu Haitao thought this was a good idea, so he hurriedly rode his bicycle to catch up with Peach Blossom.

Not long after he left the village, he saw the back of Taohua riding a bicycle from a distance. Suddenly, Taohua fell down, and he couldn't step forward, so he stretched his legs on the bicycle and waited for Taohua to slowly get up and ride again.

On the road, he followed her not too far but not too far away. He didn't turn back until he saw Taohua safely entering her parents' village.

How did Taohua know this? After she entered the village, she felt much more at ease, so she slowed down the car. When she turned back to look for the person behind her, the path was already quiet and empty. She didn't know that person was gone.

where.

At this time, the door of a house on the roadside opened with a bang, and Zheng Chujiang, the King of Hell, came out of the house. He saw Peach Blossom at a glance, and said hello with a smile: "Hey, it's Peach Blossom girl, back to her parents' home? Hehe.

.”

"I'll go home and take a look." Taohua didn't want to talk to him at first, but every time she went back to her parents' home, she had to meet him by accident. She tried her best to avoid his squinting eyes.
