Chapter 744 If You Cut It, It Will Grow Longer
Shen Wei came over and was very tired. She pulled the quilt and covered Xia Ruoxin. She lay down again and fell asleep soon after.
She didn't know how long she had slept, but Xia Ruoxin woke up, mainly because her stomach hurt. She felt a little sticky in her pants. It was strange, her stomach hurt so much.
She stood up carefully, hugged the roll of paper and went to the toilet not far away. Just like she was on the ship, there was a smell that she could smell from far away, that was the smell of the toilet. But it was still better than on the boat. It was not a big bucket or basin, but the place where they lived. There happened to be a toilet. They were all for women, so there was no distinction between men. She walked in, Holding the paper in his hand, he slowly squatted down and held his stomach hard, trying to hold back the pain that was about to come out.
This is the first time for me to feel this kind of pain, this kind of pain.
It hurts, it hurts.
She held back with all her strength, not wanting to let herself cry out, but in the end, she still cried out of pain, and uncontrollable tears rolled down one by one from the corners of her eyes.
After waiting for a long time, and the pain relieved a little, she dragged her tired body back, and then carefully climbed up to her own place.
"Have you cried?" Shen Wei's voice sounded faintly.
"Yeah," Xia Ruoxin didn't feel any shame. She turned over and fell asleep against the wall.
"Shen Wei, tell me, can we still get out alive?"
"Who knows?" Shen Wei closed her eyes and breathed softly, just like all the women here. From time to time, she could hear other people snoring. They were all tired, but they were all Numb, their lives have turned into scouring the sand every day, and scouring the sand again and again, with nothing but sand scouring. They have become complete sand scouring machines, but Xia Ruoxin doesn't want to, and she doesn't want to.
She still wanted to go back, she still wanted to go home.
Drowsily, she fell asleep again, but she was tossing and turning from time to time. The pain in her stomach was slow and slow. She was tormented by cold sweats all over her body, and the clothes on her body were wet and then dried. After drying and then getting wet, I tossed and turned all night, almost never falling asleep.
Someone came and knocked on the door in the morning. It was just dawn. They got up without washing or combing. Some even went out as soon as they got up. Xia Ruoran arranged her hair a little.
"Are you still paying attention?" Shen smiled at her and said, "You are still paying attention to these things now. What do you think? Huh?" "
"It's not too particular." Xia Ruoxin straightened her clothes. Although the clothes had not been washed or changed for a long time, "I just want to live like a person, and I don't want to forget." That’s all your true intention.”
Yes, that's really all.
She will remember herself as a person, not as a machine.
In the morning, it was very cold here. It might be close to forty degrees by noon, but in the morning it was probably about ten degrees. Xia Ruoxin had already stepped into the water with her bare feet. In an instant, the coldness was almost there. It's getting into her bones.
There was a lot of sound of water around her, and other people followed her down. Now it was time to see who was lucky enough to find some sand gold. She took a plate with a net and fished for it, looking at it. The hand that was not using any force would move up and down from time to time, which was very laborious.
No, she was disappointed again. She poured the sand into the river, then scooped up some sand and began to fish in the water. The midday sun fell above her eyes, as if a thorn had pierced her. inside the eyes.
She quickly turned her face away, and when she looked back, she saw something shining in her network disk. She moved the network disk forward a little further, and then stretched out her fingers to pinch it. She picked up the shining thing, especially under the strong light. The light turned out was a bit dazzling. She closed her eyes and breathed a slight sigh of relief. Even the corners of her lips that had been tightened finally It was the only smile I had in these few days.
Okay, great, she withdrew the money.
She took her bamboo tray to the foreman, the fat woman, and handed over the gold she got. The fat woman inspected it for a long time and was obviously very satisfied. The gold was quite big, so Quite a few.
Xia Ruoxin changed two rolls of paper, a toothpaste, and two toothbrushes. Maybe other people are wondering when this has happened, and they still have to worry about it, while other people who have found gold have traded it for food. Few people will trade for these daily necessities, but Xia Ruoxin trades for it. Got it
Today, finally, she no longer needs to be beaten.
When she went back, she gave a toothbrush to Shen Wei.
Shen Wei took it, turned around and went to sleep. Xia Ruoxin touched her head. She wanted to cut off this hair. Although she said she was reluctant to let it go, in fact, she had always been like Xiao Yudiao since she was a child. , the most beloved and precious thing is her own hair, maybe it’s because she also had a bald head.
Therefore, I rarely cut it, just let it grow naturally, and it finally stayed above the shoulders.
She got up earlier than most people in the morning, brushed her teeth, and then washed her hair with her fingers dipped in water. Since she didn't have a comb, she combed it with her fingers, but it was already very knotted. incredible.
She didn't find anything on the second day, nor on the third day. It wasn't until the fourth day that she found another grain of gold sand. She still changed the toilet paper, two bowls of rice, and even changed the scissors for a while. Scissors are considered sharp tools, so people here are afraid that these women will do something with scissors, so they never give them sharp things like scissors and fruit knives.
Even when Xia Ruoxin got the scissors, there were several people watching. Xia Ruoxin grabbed a strand of her hair. She clenched the scissors in her hand and took a deep breath. A strand of hair that was stuck together had fallen away. come down
She didn't cry, and the scissors in her hand were cutting mechanically until her hair was cut very short, almost bald.
At this time, Shen Wei came over. She sat in front of Xia Ruoxin and helped me cut it.
Xia Ruo It has turned yellow and has lost its original color.
"It will always grow longer if you cut it off."
She sighed softly, and the smile that raised her red lips didn't know where it had gone.
