So, the village chief took a special leave that day, but kept hiding his identity and wandering around the construction site, keeping an eye on those guys who disappeared at night. When I heard this, I said to the village chief, you feel like a detective, and the village chief also laughed after hearing this. He said that he actually thought so, but there was no way. It was not because he was responsible, but because among that small group of people, there were one or two young people from Nanhe Village, so he had to take it seriously. After all, We are all fellow villagers, so we can't watch him fall. The village chief's tracking that time also achieved some results. After nightfall, the village chief followed one of the guys closely and found him sneaking through the streets and alleys, and then arrived at a place that had long been abandoned. Under the bridge - there were many people gathered there. Many of the workers on the construction site who were lazy during the day and disappeared at night were discovered by the village chief. The village chief felt bad when he saw them gathered here and everyone looked terrible, so he hid and observed. Not long after, the village chief discovered that the expressions of these guys all had the same characteristics - speechless, big and small, old and young, fat and thin, all of them gradually looked anxious and impatient as time went by. . Some guys even screamed and scratched their arms crazily, leaving bloody marks without even realizing it. When recalling this, the village chief still seemed a little frightened. He said that when he saw that scene for the first time, he thought he saw a group of lunatics, because not only their faces, but their expressions also looked quite abnormal. Lang Jin and I both nodded silently, feeling that we could understand the village chief's mood at that time. After the village chief hid and observed for a while, he discovered that several people were walking towards them from the slope with boxes. And the group of people who had gathered under the bridge from the beginning felt as if they were seeing their biological father after seeing the man holding the black box. They rushed forward crazily one after another. The guys holding the black boxes didn't seem to have any special reaction. Their faces were full of indifference, as if they were used to this kind of scene. Afterwards, this group of people, as if they were hypnotized, followed the group of people holding the black box. The village chief was also a little scared, but he still followed in order to explore the truth. Finally, he followed the group of people to a neighborhood of dilapidated tile-roofed houses. After they entered the house, the incandescent lights quickly turned on. The village chief took a detour to the back of the house to take a peek - and found that one by one in the group, they were all lying on the floor in a mess, or leaning on each other. In the corner, the room was filled with smoke, and their eyes were blurred. The village chief understood at first glance what they were doing. They were smoking! The previous village chief didn't know about this, but after coming to this big city, the things he saw and came into contact with were different from those in his hometown. He already understood 70% to 80% of it just by listening to what others said. But this was also the first time for the village chief to see someone smoking a big cigarette with his own eyes. Needless to say, it was a shock. He had heard that smoking cigarettes can make people addicted and make them as happy as gods. Of course, he also heard that smoking cigarettes can directly make a person completely useless. So when the village chief saw the two fellow villagers from Nanhe Village looking blurred-eyed, holding big cigarettes in their hands, leaning against the lantern and smoking, the anger in his heart skyrocketed, and he wanted to go in and punch them immediately. . But in the end the village chief held back. After all, many of these people were co-workers. There are also construction site rules. If you want to help each other at work, you must also maintain a good relationship in private. After all, this is their own choice. If he acts out of his own will, even if it is for their own good, he will definitely make these people have opinions about him. So after the village chief discovered the shocking fact that more than a dozen people had gathered to smoke, he still chose to remain silent. Because he is the team leader trusted by the contractor, and what the contractor values most about the village leader is that the workers under him get along very peacefully, unlike other work teams that will cause him a lot of trouble in the future. A lot of chaos. In that era, the contractor on a construction site was almost like a god. Whether he could get paid on time or not depended on the conscience of the contractor. The village chief said that this might not be possible in today's era, but that was how it was at the time. At that time, including the village chief, everyone's motivation for working was purely for wages, so once they got excited here and had a bad relationship with some workers, they would not cooperate when working, and the efficiency would inevitably decrease. The village chief also heard that people who are addicted to smoking can't be persuaded to come back, and it's just a waste of effort. If trouble is caused at the construction site, and the contractor gets a grudge against you and the work team, and you can't get your wages back on time, then everything will be over. The people below him didn't listen to him, the people above him ignored him, and the village chief himself didn't want to face that embarrassing situation. When he bowed his head and went back that day in frustration, the village chief said that he never thought that he would be infected with this thing one day."...Village Chief, have you smoked this thing for a while?" I said in shock. The village chief lowered his eyes and sipped his wine. He just smiled and did not deny it. He just said that if I continue to listen, I will find out. It happened just a few months after he realized there was no hope for him. At this time, the village chief had been in the city for four full years. He was saving money like an iron rooster, but the reason why he was able to do this was all because of his arrogance. He didn't want to accept the cruel reality before him. He wanted to make a career in a big city, but without education, he couldn't find any channels at all. Moreover, in the final analysis, the money he saved was a lot of money in his own eyes, but in the eyes of those city natives, it was not considered money at all. It is simply not enough to use this money to make decent investments or businesses. Instead, I want to start small businesses that sound unreliable, and I am worried that my savings over the years will be directly wasted. I work for more than ten hours every day. After the high-intensity physical work, I can hardly hold anything else in my mind. I just want to go to bed quickly. And in the constant repetition of this reality, eventually, the pressure that had been building up in the village chief's heart exploded. He didn't originally want to smoke, but he followed the group of workers who went to the Fengyue Factory after work, hoping to have a good time there. He was quite distressed when he spent the money at first, but where in his hometown had he seen a woman so exquisitely dressed, with such white and tender skin, such a soft body and a fragrant fragrance? Soon, surrounded by these tender affections, the village chief drank cup after cup, and gradually began to lose his mind. All the grievances, anger, unwillingness, sadness and other negative emotions accumulated in his heart burst out - he In one night, all the savings for the month were spent. After returning home, the village chief felt distressed for a long time, and even felt very regretful. At that time, it was one thing for him to feel that he had done something unforgivably stupid and spent all his savings for a month, but on the other hand, when he thought about what he had done last night, he was filled with guilt. Because his behavior was tantamount to a complete betrayal of his wife and family. Something happened between him and that fair-skinned, beautiful woman who knew how to care for others that shouldn't have happened. And if his wife knew about this, the family would definitely be ruined. The village chief swore a poisonous oath at that time and decided never to do such an irrational thing again. At that time, he said that he firmly believed that he would never go again. However, he still seems to take the "laziness" in human nature too lightly. Leaving Wenrou Township, the feeling of working hard during the day against the space-distorting heat and scorching sun seemed to have evaporated all the guilt in the village chief's body. At night, when he was exhausted, he once again recalled the feeling of ecstasy that night.When he returned to his residence, he was surrounded only by a group of workers who smelled of sweat. His bed was hard. He used to feel that he could sleep after throwing on a few paper shells and thin dirty quilts, but now the village chief has already I have tasted the softness of Simmons mattress. When he thought of someone sleeping on that soft mattress every night, holding a fair and tender woman in his arms, he was unwilling to accept it. Thinking of his desperate situation with no possibility of success, he became almost desperate. Lose your mind. After enduring again and again, the village chief finally couldn't bear it anymore and went to the romantic place again. But this time he was familiar with the road, and with the experience from the last time, he played even more unscrupulously. Even after arriving in a place like this, the village chief said that his sense of money was abnormal. Spending a month's savings on a bottle of red wine didn't feel expensive anymore. At that time, because he worked hard to save money, his savings were relatively high among his fellow workers at the same time. The happy night passed, and the day came again, which made him desperate and painful. The village chief started going over and over again, going to that place every night to relieve stress, otherwise he would feel that he was in too much pain to survive. While he was addicted to the romantic place and couldn't extricate himself, the village chief accidentally met a woman who looked sick and sick one day. When he said this, the village chief sighed deeply and showed a complicated wry smile. He said that because he had been there many times at that time, he also had women he was familiar with in that store, but those women who happened to be familiar with the village chief that day were either asked out by other customers in advance or Rest did not go to work. At that time, the business of that store was also very good, and there was only one woman left. So the village chief, who had become more discerning, although he was not satisfied with this woman, he still ordered her and planned to go with her tonight. spend. However, the village chief never imagined that his behavior would become a huge turning point in his life. The village chief didn't have a pleasant time drinking that day. In the past, he liked to hug those beautiful and plump women while drinking and laughing. But this time, the village chief would certainly not feel happy drinking with this woman who was skinny, sick, and as pale as a dead person, so he just sat and drank alone. And just when he almost regretted ordering this woman, the other party made a suggestion. She said that she knew that few guests would like her if she looked like this, so as compensation, she was willing to provide the village chief with a new way of playing. At that time, the village chief was bored and asked her to show off his skills. The woman asked him to follow her, so the village chief got up.After leaving the shop, the woman took the village chief to a hotel.
