Chapter One The Blood awakens

The nineteen nineties.

Ring, ring, ring...

The sudden ringing of the school bell disturbed the calm in the campus.

In the third four class door, early has gathered more than a dozen students, black head filled the front and back doors of the classroom, have the meaning of breaking the threshold.

A bald teacher on the platform seemed so frightened by the situation that he could have delayed the class for half an hour, but hastily dismissed the students.

The teacher sounded after school, the students secretly breathe. Looking at the situation in front of me, I don't know which unlucky person is going to be beaten again.

The teacher on the platform has not yet come out of the classroom, a tall male student is like a door god general blocked the teacher's front door, eyes sharp glance at the students in the teacher, eyes toward the back door.

Wow...

A male student dressed in black at the back door nodded his head without leaving any trace. With a long stick wrapped in his shirt in a professional handle and half bent, he pushed open the door quickly and hurried to the thin male student in the corner of the last row.

Aleana Zaretskiy is packing her bag, patting her long fingers on the surface of the books and slowly putting them in her big black pocket.

Buy a bag, only a few dozen dollars. But for Aleana Zaretskiy, who grew up in poverty, a few dollars was a big deal. Even this pocket book bag was with Aleana Zaretskiy for several years from elementary to middle school. Aleana Zaretskiy will never forget the old man's calloused hands pulling him toward the store on a rainy day. Under the disgusted gaze of the woman, his father pulled a pile of crumpled pennies from his pocket, counting them one by one. When Aleana Zaretskiy carried the brand new schoolbag on her back, she did not feel the joy of her peers, and the tears in her eyes did not stop. The empty schoolbag was so heavy, so heavy.

Snap!

Aleana Zaretskiy's mind was swept back by a sharp pain in her back, and she threw herself down on her desk, her books scattered on the floor.

Snap! Snap! Snap!

Whipping after whipping, the searing pain hit Aleana Zaretskiy's brain. The honest boy did not dare to resist, with full doubt, shaking his hands around his head, silent convulsions.

Crash!

The tacit cowardice did not elicit sympathy from the male student, who instead kicked the leg of Aleana Zaretskiy's stool more violently. The timid Aleana Zaretskiy fell to the floor with a clanging sound.

Why don't you get out of here, old man? I want to get beat up with you. The tall boy at the front door pushed the timid teacher and said fiercely.

I'm going, I'm going. The teacher bowed his head, silently stepped out of the door, in the face of male students at the same time, showing a pleasing smile.

Is this my teacher? Is this the vice-principal I look up to? Aleana Zaretskiy withstood the punches and kicks on her back and looked at the so-called vice principal with desperate eyes as she stepped out the door.

What is it that a teacher at a school, or even an assistant principal, can see a student being beaten and not look at it? Somebody tell me what the fuck this is. Aleana Zaretskiy felt as if her heart was slowly swelling, her eyes were suddenly bloodshot, the pain in her back seemed to be getting less and less intense, and even the movements of her classmates around her seemed to be slowing more and more slowly, leaving only the sound of her own breathing.

Who am I? I'm Aleana Zaretskiy, someone hit me... I should fight back, I should fight back, I should fight back! Aleana Zaretskiy's right hand involuntarily grabbed the broken leg of a stool, clenched her teeth and struck with her backhand.

Snap!

It was the boy who enjoyed it. He did not seem to expect the timid man to attack him unexpectedly. Unexpectedly, he fell to the ground when he was hit by the stool leg.

Aleana Zaretskiy rolled over, slightly clumsily holding down the boy, her left hand clenching the boy's neck like a pincer. At this point, Aleana Zaretskiy's heart was not afraid, the enormous hatred had made him lose his mind, his right hand was raised high, The stool leg in the hands of the boy under the body is a hard!

'The path!

Front door squatting boys to see his companions suffer losses, quickly toward two people, at the same time, the back door followed by a few fierce men.

Third brother, kill this scum! Aleana Zaretskiy shouted as she struggled on top of the boy, named Luci.

"Fuck you! The boy, named the third brother, walked up to them and kicked Aleana Zaretskiy into the corner of the teacher.

Brothers together, I want to beat this boy to death! The path struggled to stand up, patted the dust of his body, reached out his hand to his face, grabbed a large blood stains, said angrily. And then a kick to Aleana Zaretskiy.

"All right! Several male students cornered Aleana Zaretskiy, punching and kicking each other.

The classroom was very quiet. All the students in the class, except Aleana Zaretskiy, who was being beaten, did not dare to move a muscle. The big class, which was full of strong boys, looked like frightened mice, with their heads tucked in their crotches.

I tell you to fucking fight back, you fight again, I'll fuck you! Several male students beating is still continuing, while playing, while constantly cursing, teenagers, even so poisonous.

Whew... Whew...

Aleana Zaretskiy's panting sound was like an old bellows, now covered with dirt, her head had not yet been cut by someone, and the blood was flowing from her head to her mouth.

You scum! I'll fight you!

Man, this kind of high-tech analysis can not penetrate the animal, the heart always reveals the mystery. The more honest people, the more will be the heart of the bloodthirsty side deeply hidden in the bottom of my heart. But this blood is often the most terrible when it is aroused.

Aleana Zaretskiy is not strong enough to defend himself, but he is a human being, a human being! He has a temper, a joy, a dream, but also a Chinese people's blood!

Bang!

Aleana Zaretskiy, out of her mind, threw herself on the man named Path. Aleana Zaretskiy lost all sense at this time, but still clearly knew in his mind, this person, is his enemy, is his opponent!

Pa pa pa!

Aleana Zaretskiy's hands never leave her neck despite the other boys kicking and punching her in the back, so hard that Aleana Zaretskiy's not dark skin turned very pale. Her long fingers only closed her neck, and the tips of her fingers sank deep into her flesh, bleeding Jun Chun's blood.

"Let go! Come on fuck loose... Her hands beat Aleana Zaretskiy's body as she was thrown to the ground. The choking sensation in her throat made her sound intermittent.

Gabba

A sound of bone friction rang out in the empty classroom. The boy, identified only as the third brother, clasped Aleana Zaretskiy's arms tightly behind his back.

With her arm seized, Aleana Zaretskiy is not letting go of the person in front of her. Holding back the pain in her arm, which was close to paralysis, Aleana Zaretskiy's head sank down into the path's shoulder, biting it like a beast, tearing through her clothes and sinking deep into the flesh.

Hiss!

Aleana Zaretskiy's body swung, with her clothes attached, and bloodthirsty tore off a piece of flesh from the shoulder of the path, spitting it out in disgust.

I'm enough! Aleana Zaretskiy's simple smile reveals white teeth stained with blood. The mouth of the blood down the chest, looks very scary.

Get... Death... He... Xiao Lu gave a deep voice, and the sweat from her forehead wet her cheeks. Finally, she could not help but pass out in pain.

Erm...

Several fierce boys looked at each other, all struck by Aleana Zaretskiy's crazy side, looking at each other, together at the boy named three brother.

To the death... Fight! The third elder brother meditated for a moment and said stiffly. Now the situation, if defeated and flee, spread out, let a person know that a few people were scared away by a timid boy, I am afraid will be laughed off by others.

'What are you doing?

In a few boys just about to start at the same time, the door suddenly came a angry drink, followed by three strong boys walked in.

"Ho Nam!

Three boys just stepped into the classroom, the head of the boy looked at, suddenly screamed. Strode over to Aleana Zaretskiy, looking at the crowd with fierce eyes.

Zhang Lei! I advise you to stay out of this mess! This kid seduced my brother's girlfriend and knocked him out. I'm afraid I can't do it without putting something down! The man named three elder brother saw the visitor, frowned and said threateningly.

Li Nan! My ancestor, my brother you also dare to hit, really when I Zhang Lei is easy to bully is it, today we will cross the road to see who is the two of the bearer! The boy, named Zhang Lei, said in a sad and angry tone.

With the roar of Zhang Lei, the two boys who followed him stepped to block Wang SAN's body, took out two switchblade knives from his arms, and opened them with a snap.

Lei Zi, this matter has nothing to do with you, you'd better leave it alone. Aleana Zaretskiy tossed her dazed head and struggled to her feet.

Nonsense, usually tell you don't learn like a fool, you do not listen to him, now how, was beaten even a helper! Look at your class. There's not a single one with a handle. They're all fucking rubbish. Zhang Lei shouted a lesson.

That's how I see it, a bunch of pussies. Aleana Zaretskiy glances at the class and says with disdain. Aleana Zaretskiy is bullied by the boys in her class every day. They act like big boys and wet their pants when confronted with cruel ones. A class of, if nothing else, outsiders should always help you, a bunch of cowards.

When Zhang Lei heard Aleana Zaretskiy's words, he was a little surprised and then burst into laughter, completely ignoring the three Kings. What a good boy! I usually see you silly, did not expect now enlightened, will scold, this is worth the spanking!

Zhang Lei, you go, today they are looking for my trouble, not your business, I will solve my own problems by myself. Aleana Zaretskiy glanced at Li Nan and said to Zhang Lei. I usually see Aleana Zaretskiy as an honest, but in fact a stubborn Lord, the decision of eight horses can not pull back.

Bullshit! Just praise you two words you pant, don't look at you bigger than me for a few months, the fight or I do, you this body is not good. Don't forget, we grew up naked together! Feelings don't matter! Zhang Lei is very loyal said.

Zhang Lei, it seems you must be involved in this matter today! Li Nan took over, tone poor said.

What's the matter? Afraid? Weren't you pretty cool when you beat up my brother? Now what? Get down on your knees! Zhang Lei took out his switchblade, cow * coax said.

Take the path and let's go!

Li Nan was Zhang Lei's angry face red, but had to bow, although there are five or six people, but also arrived at the spring knife ah, just stab one, the medical expenses alone is enough to worry about "Zhang Lei, today this matter count me planted, we do not turn the mountains turn the water turn, there are always you regret, I don't believe you keep the boy for a lifetime.

Bah!

Zhang Lei disgust to go to the door of the Wang SAN spit a spit, what thing ah, cowardly coward.

"Stop!

Just as the three of them crossed the threshold, Aleana Zaretskiy's voice rang out abruptly...

Hidden danger

Stop!

Just as Li Nan's front feet crossed the threshold, Aleana Zaretskiy's voice suddenly remembered.

There's something fucking wrong with you. For Zhang Lei, Li Nan still some fear, but even Aleana Zaretskiy this honest student also dare to stop, Li Nan some angry.

Li Nan, are you fucking looking for smoke ah, still want to walk out of class four today. Zhang Lei heard Li Nan scold Aleana Zaretskiy, like being stepped on a foot, originally put into the pocket of the spring knife quickly out, open with a snap, stride to Li Nan several people.

It's all right. Don't get angry. There's nothing to be angry about with a scum. Aleana Zaretskiy reached out to Zhang Lei and said calmly. Then turned his head, deep eyes looking directly at Li Nan, today this beat me down, I also played you, the total should give a reason.

What depressed Aleana Zaretskiy most was not being beaten, but being beaten for no reason, like walking down the street and being sent to the police station as a thief for no reason.

"Chia Jingwen!

Li Nan looked straight at Aleana Zaretskiy for ten seconds, then jumped out of her mouth three words and walked away without looking back.

So it's her. Aleana Zaretskiy, with a little more clarity, formed a picture of the girl in her mind and shook her head, forcing her to forget it in disgust.

Nanzi, look how crazy that boy is. If you ask me, I'll cut him to pieces. Zhang Lei holds a switchblade to the air.

All right, all right. Today I'm on record. I don't owe anyone anything, and they don't owe me anything. Aleana Zaretskiy says, her voice icy. Sometimes, in the face of blindly provoke, the best way is not to avoid, the more you avoid, he is more arrogant, only to give its heavy blow, to let her know, you, not easy to provoke.

Good boy, learn to be clever. Today is a good day, we college students have finally fallen, hang out with me, I tell you, honest kids are not popular now, bad guys, is the hegemon. Zhang Lei said the old qi.

Get out! I'm still hanging out with you! I don't even know how I died! Back to my brother! You're fucking younger than me, okay?! You forgot I gave you a sweet potato when you were a kid! Give it back! Aleana Zaretskiy grinned and played around, then switched gears and said, By the way, don't you have to go home early today? When you come home a little late, your old man will get started...

Damn it! I almost forgot. It's all your fault that you've made such a fuss and gone away. It's over for the day and I'm sure I'll be beaten again when I get home. You must speak well of my old man for me. Zhang Lei called to his younger brother and ran out in a hurry.

Aleana Zaretskiy waved helplessly, did not look at the people in her class, two or three times to pack up her bag, did not look back and stepped out of the class.

Crossing the threshold, the sun shines warmly on the forehead. The hot temperature of the noon sun constantly nibbles the shadow of Aleana Zaretskiy's heart. No one knows, at this moment, which of the past honest boy disappeared, replaced by the future world for the shock of the underworld.

On the road of life, no one can give you enough help, their hands hold, is their own. For example, Aleana Zaretskiy now holds half a piece of hard steamed bread in her hand, which she eats with relish over cold water.

Looking at the clear Study hard, make Progress every day letters on both sides of the campus gate, Aleana Zaretskiy smiled a little self-deprecating. In today's society, can we survive only by studying well? Aleana Zaretskiy slowly walked home as her mind returned to the steamed bread in her hand.

A steady stream of students cycled back and forth on either side, and occasionally a few turned to look at her with disdain, something that Aleana Zaretskiy was used to but did not care about. Aleana Zaretskiy has admired students riding bicycles since primary school alone. However, from primary school to junior high school, Aleana Zaretskiy has no doubt dreamed of a bicycle with dozens of pieces. Every day, Aleana Zaretskiy ties two sandbags to her legs for exercise. For the people around despise the eyes also began to become less care. Aleana Zaretskiy even forgets to tie the sandbag on her leg once because she gets up late. She runs to the school gate and returns home to tie it. This is a habit and a persistence.

Hard with the teeth bite the day before yesterday's steamed bread, a water to send down, this taste, say good who believe it. But Aleana Zaretskiy has gradually learned to be happy with the pain. After all, with a sick father at home and a mother who can't come home at noon, a mere ten yuan becomes lunch money for her father and his son.

Aleana Zaretskiy's home is about 20 minutes from the school. There's a grocery store in the middle of the house. Usually at noon, Aleana Zaretskiy buys something to take home to cook for her father. It is true that poor children are in charge. You expect a teenager with a silver spoon in his mouth to cook? Can drive almost, there is a saying that the good poor one year's wages, is not worth a rich second generation sports car tire...

Four or five eggs, a sausage, two dollars of bread, ten dollars lost. Aleana Zaretskiy walks home with a dry bun in her mouth and an armful in her arms. The goal is to finish eating the steamed bread before returning home...

Well, if it isn't Aleana Zaretskiy, the famous merit student in our class, what does she have in her mouth?

Aleana Zaretskiy was walking past a car repair shop when a high-pitched voice broke out. Aleana Zaretskiy looked away from the sound.

Wearing slightly washed white jeans, wrapped in charming buttocks, a pair of clean sandals set with thin black socks, the upper body of the new short shirt to show white skin, first see concave and convex beauty peak proudly tall and straight, a white and tender face, long eyelashes, thin lips, small earlobe made two small ear holes, no doubt a full beauty embryo. However, Aleana Zaretskiy only glanced at her and then turned her head to go her own way. For no other reason, this beautiful woman was Jia Jingwen, the girl who got her beaten

Hullo! What is your attitude? "Chia exclaimed, her pretty face turning red when she saw that Aleana Zaretskiy was not even birding her.

Idiot.

Aleana Zaretskiy muttered a little and walked home without looking back.

Wang Peng! That boy is too wild! Chia Jingwen turned her head and said to the boy beside her.

Don't be angry. He must know why the flowers are so red. Wang Peng took the opportunity to expose Jia Jingwen's waist, ingratiating said. And a dark glance at Aleana Zaretskiy as she walked away.

Aleana Zaretskiy, who was in a hurry to go home, did not notice at all that a hidden enemy was quietly reaching out his big black hand, which also made Aleana Zaretskiy walk on this endless road of no return, full of blood and color, and the world was crazy for it!

Chapter 3 Brothers

Back in her shabby but warm den, Aleana Zaretskiy, as usual, squeezed into the greasy-stained kitchen, where the smell of soot was as biting as ever, turned on the stove expertly, and in a few moments, a hot egg soup was being cooked, she took the rest of the eggs, cut the sausages into slices, and placed them in bowls. A bowl of hot soup, a bowl of sausage, a plate of scrambled eggs, and steaming steamed buns, Aleana Zaretskiy, holding a tray in one hand, enters the slightly dark hut.

Ahem... Xiao Nan is back. A coughing sound came from the room.

Dad, I'm out of school. I'll help you up for dinner. Aleana Zaretskiy whispers, smiling as she puts the tray on the table and moves the table to the side of the bed.

Well, I'm holding you both back. Chen old things to mention again, since the last time in the construction site broke the leg, originally is not rich family is worse, originally in their early 40s parents, face suddenly old teens.

Sometimes I just want to go to sleep and dig a hole and bury myself without dragging you two down. Chen Fu said some remorse.

Dad, what are you talking about? Isn't it nice to have our family together? If anything happens to you, how can you let my mother and I live? Aleana Zaretskiy has some red circles around her eyes.

Since Chen's father was bedridden, the family could hardly make ends meet with Chen's mother's small income from selling vegetables in the market, and only a bite of meat was available during festivals. But Aleana Zaretskiy doesn't feel bitter at all. In the heart of Aleana Zaretskiy, parents are the most precious thing. Money is gone, people are gone. Where to find a person who is true to you? Although Chen Fu is sick in bed, but, he is the spiritual pillar of the family, people, can be poor, can be tired, but, can not have their own power.

After serving Father Chen, Aleana Zaretskiy quietly took the leftovers to the kitchen, hid in a corner, picked up the steamed bread left by Father Chen, vigorously wiped the bowl of eggs, and then ate it contentedly, weeping silently.

After washing the dishes quickly and placing them neatly in a cupboard, Aleana Zaretskiy quietly closed the door and walked toward the school.

Seiqiao No. 2 High School, an ordinary middle school, has a rule that students can only go outside for more than half an hour at noon

Because it was the lunch break, there were not many students in the class, most of them were fighting. Several male students who were not good at study even took out a poker to fight the landlord together. Everything seemed out of place for Aleana Zaretskiy to enter.

Sit quietly in your seat. Last row in the corner.

This is not to say that Aleana Zaretskiy is one of the bad students. Experienced students will know that every class in the school has a front and back door, and teachers, for whatever reason, always prefer to enter from the back. Therefore, the position in the corner of the last row of each teacher is called the teacher's specific position. Aleana Zaretskiy, on the other hand, sits with her teacher and listens to her every moment.

Unfazed by the morning's events, Aleana Zaretskiy, as usual, skillfully opened a brand new textbook and began to read it with relish. But is it really that soon over? Trees want to quiet, and the wind is not.

Nanko!

A few minutes after opening the textbook, Zhang Lei's wild voice rang outside the door, and as soon as it reached Aleana Zaretskiy's ears, Zhang Lei's thin body entered Aleana Zaretskiy's sight.

Clap!

As Zhang Lei entered the class, originally some noisy class, suddenly in complete silence. Casually kicking down a few benches scattered among the desks, Zhang walked over to Aleana Zaretskiy as if no one were watching.

They're not after you, are they? "Zhang Lei asked with a laugh, then took out a box of red River from his pocket, self-consciously lit, as if thinking of something, some hesitantly pressed the lighter to the cigarette box, to the desk a.

This guy is careful. Being disturbed by Zhang Lei, Aleana Zaretskiy had no mind to read. She simply closed her textbook. Hearing Zhang Yong's caring words, Aleana Zaretskiy felt warm in her heart, This brother has never been in vain.

Glancing at the cigarettes on the table, Aleana Zaretskiy did not hesitate to pull one out, lit it with a crack, and began smoking in a similar fashion: No, but this is not the end of the story.

Ha ha, I knew you were not a gentle man. When you were a child, you fought hard, but now the bigger you get, the more timid you become. I said that Zhao Zilong could not be a soft man. Zhang Lei laughed and patted Aleana Zaretskiy on the shoulder, a look I had long known.

"My sister!

After all, she had never smoked before. After taking two puffs, she was patted by Zhang Lei, and the thick smoke immediately choked her nose. Aleana Zaretskiy could not help coughing violently, rubbing her eyes with her hands.

Now, stop, and get down to business. What are you going to do about it? I can't do it without me. Zhang Lei flicked the ashes of the cigarette and changed his usual cheeky face.

Don't worry, I can't do anything by myself. Aleana Zaretskiy unceremoniously pulls Zhang Lei into her boat. Between brothers, do not need so much politeness, too much affectation, but the obvious.

Say, I am a coarse person, not so many bad ideas, you scholar, belly ink. Zhang Lei suddenly came to a do not know is kua or damage words.

Your uncle!

Aleana Zaretskiy put the end of her cigarette on the desk and flicked it with her finger. "This time, Li Nan and Lu are the first to beat me. All the others are the dogs.

Then I cut him and dumped him in the wilderness. Zhang Lei said first.

Throw your sister ah, you think you are a gang ah, also a knife result! But I don't want to offend anyone who doesn't offend me. If he does, he must draw some blood. Aleana Zaretskiy clenched her fists and looked a little grimace.

"Good boy, bad enough! Zhang Lei laughed.

"My grass!

Aleana Zaretskiy tried to fight, but Zhang Lei evaded him first.

I'll go ahead. Let me know when it's time. Laughing, Zhang Lei ran to the back door, and then, as if remembering something, he took out a box of Hongta Mountain from his chest and threw it to Aleana Zaretskiy. Well, I am not used to smoking this cigarette. Ha ha

Chapter Four The Great War will begin

The third class in the morning, PE class.

A class of thirty or forty people, under the leadership of the teacher, the same began to exercise.

First, run three laps around the court. One lap of 800 meters, three laps down is not a small amount of exercise. Because the two belong to herding school, campus management has not followed up. After three laps, the teachers ran to nowhere. The remaining twenty minutes will be a paradise for the living.

The boys in the class, a group of several people, in the court you catch me catch up to play basketball. Girls are in twos and threes in a circle, sitting in the shade of a tree laughing and talking. Of course, every class is not without nerds type of students, a few people quietly hide aside, relish into the study. And these students were called death squads by the good guys.

In the past, Aleana Zaretskiy was also a member of the Waiting Squad. Now, Aleana Zaretskiy is lying leisurely on the lawn, puffing on a cigarette from Zhang Lei in
