Wan San swept his eyes over them one by one more vigilantly, and did not relax until he found out that he was recruiting his brother.

"It confesses the Lord. Hua Xi smiled lightly, with a little light in his long and narrow eyes, "Recruit brother, come here." ”

Yan Fei moved his gaze to the window, well, wouldn't it be nice without me.

Brother Zhao saw Hua Xi greeting her, hesitated for a moment and walked up timidly, trying to raise his head and look directly at the enemy in front of him, but he was finally defeated, shrunk beside Hua Xi and looked down at the dead leaves and gravel under his feet.

Xiaoli poked Yan Fei and whispered, "Why do I think that snake is about to cry?"

Yan Fei turned his head to look at Brother Zhao, who was hiding next to Hua Xi and tried his best to shrink back, and then looked at the big python with blood pupils and golden scales in front of him, which had obviously lost its momentum, and lowered his head to reply to Xiao Li, "I think you are right." ”

"Hiss~" The huge golden python suddenly spit out the letter twice, and its whole body was a little shorter, as if it was flattering.

"It's a long life, it's a long life. Yan Fei took two steps back and hugged Xiaoli tightly.

Brother Zhao heard the familiar hissing sound, secretly raised his eyelids and looked at the third watch, and found that the other party didn't seem to be as terrible as she imagined, so he also relaxed. But this level of relaxation is probably that she finally dared to raise her eyelids and look ahead......

"Hiss~" The third watch suddenly tore up a little resolutely, and then "Wow" spit out something from his mouth, bluffing his brother to jump back. In front of the place where she had been standing, a golden dagger fell impartially.

Brother Zhao was frightened and raised his head blankly to look at Hua Xi. But at this time, Hua Xi brushed off her tightly clasped hand, took two steps back diagonally, and left her standing alone with the three watches and four eyes.

Yan Fei couldn't bear it, so he had to open his mouth to remind, "Brother Zhao?"

I don't know what magic power is endowed with this sound, it seems to have exploded all the small universes in Wan Zhaodi's heart, only to see Wan Zhaodi pick up the golden dagger, and his eyes were fierce and almost wanted to pierce the python in front of him. But she didn't move, still standing in place as if she was accumulating, gasping for breath.

Yan Fei looked at Hua Xi, and Hua Xi tilted her head to indicate that she didn't understand at all. Yan Fei gave an expression if you don't believe it or not, I will kill you, Hua Xi was finally forced to open his mouth and act as a villain.

"Brother Zhao, can you listen to me first?"

Brother Zhao didn't expect Hua Xi, who had nothing to do with herself, to talk to her at this time, and nodded in agreement suspiciously.

Hua Xi threw out the second question, "Then, can you listen to me again by the way?"

Recruit brother: "......"

Yan Fei: "......"

Xiao Li: "......"

Hua Xi put on a sanctimonious appearance and explained: "I think that before you do this, you must understand the whole thing." ”

"What?" Zhaodi's hand holding the golden dagger trembled a little, and she struggled to contain her fear, swallowing a mouthful of saliva to moisten her throat, which was dry from over-tension.

Yan Fei turned around, not wanting to see the expression of Zhao Di at this moment, let alone the bitter appearance of the third one. Hua Xi's cold voice sounded behind her.

"It all started on the day of your full moon. ”

"The creatures of heaven and earth have one thing in common except for humans, and that is the retribution of gratitude. This golden python was born with a lot of spiritual roots, so he has practiced for so many years, and he attaches more importance to repaying his kindness. Because of the hunger of that day, I received the kindness of your father and mother for a meal, and I recognized your ten thousand families as the master, and secretly swore to protect your ten thousand families. ”

"It's a pity that its cultivation was still shallow at that time, and it couldn't understand people's words. I don't know what your parents were talking about that day by the rice paddies. ”

Thirteen years ago

"Daddy, you've heard about it. Mei Xiangdao lowered her voice, patted the sleeping child in her arms with her palm, and looked at Daddy Wan with a mysterious expression.

Daddy Wan leaned his head, "What's the matter?"

Mei Xiangdao looked around, turned back and whispered: "Lao Wan next door, yesterday, because someone from above investigated the matter of Chaosheng, he took a knife and chopped the newborn girl of his family, and the blood flowed all over the ground with her intestines." ”

"Hey, that beast/life will be punished sooner or later. Father Wan shook his head, he and his daughter-in-law have been doing it for so many years, so he naturally knows what his daughter-in-law means, "Don't worry, we will definitely not do anything about livestock/life." ”

Mei Xiangdao breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, showing nothing on the surface, and echoed: "No, sooner or later you have to be taken away by God." ”

Wan Dad shook his hat, and a few wisps of breeze blew on his face. But somehow, a disturbance in his heart gradually appeared.

Mei Xiangdao stroked the child's body and began to hum one by one. Unexpectedly, the next moment, Daddy Wan's joke seemed to be like a north wind blowing goose feather snow, which chilled her heart.

"The roots have been broken, and the seeds have been destroyed...... Don't you have to be taken away by God? ”

Mei Xiangdao's back was cold, and the roots of Bingling climbed up along her spine, climbing inch by inch, freezing inch by inch, freezing so that she was dumbfounded, as if she was falling into a cold winter.

"Daddy, you ......" She held back for a long time, and only dared to say such a sentence. She heard the cruelty of other fathers, and at this moment she didn't dare to estimate the conscience of her family.

Daddy Wan smiled, and he didn't fan the wind with a hat, and kept turning around in his hand.

"Daddy, don't laugh. Mei Xiangdao straightened her face and turned her old man over, "Daddy, you, you tell me the truth." If it's for the sake of your son, aren't you...... You can also get your hands on it!" At the end, Mei Xiangdao's voice trembled, full of chokes.

Daddy Wan didn't comfort his wife, because even he was at a loss.

This golden ground, a spacious house built with a handful of cement and a shovel, if this is gone...... What's the point? The wind blows the rice and makes a rattling sound. This natural and comfortable voice entered the ears of Daddy Wan at this moment, and it became the culprit of people's confusion and annoyance.

————————

"Saneven didn't know how to speak, even if he listened to it for a long time near the rice field, he didn't know what it meant. A few years later, your brother was born into the world, but he was born in a drought. Your parents made up their minds after making a decision. When the third watch first set foot in the world, he didn't understand the so-called patriarchal rituals, so naturally when you fell into the water late at night, you just accidentally stumbled......"

But he didn't know that he had done his benefactor a disservice. ”

————————

"Daddy, Mom!" As soon as Brother Zhao arrived home, he cried, full of grievances, and only at this moment did he dare to break out.

Father Wan and Mei Xiangdao were shocked when they saw their younger brothers, and after looking at each other, they suddenly burst into tears.

"Girl, my girl......" Mei Xiangdao hugged Brother Zhao and cried out with all her might.

Daddy Wan stood next to him and didn't make a sound, just raised his hand to wipe his tears.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back alive. Daddy Wan hurriedly brought a basin of water from the well at the door and boiled it, and wiped his brother's hands with warm water.

Mei Xiangdao suddenly went crazy and beat Daddy Wan's chest, "I blame you and I blame you, isn't it just a drought, no matter how hard and poor we were a few years ago, we won't come over! If you still want to lose it, just lose me......"

Daddy Wan slammed the cigarette stick on the ground, "This one slap doesn't make a sound, don't you nod when you milk the boy!"

"Shhhhhh

Daddy Wan seemed to have been drained of strength all of a sudden, and sat down on the seat in a dejected manner. The dry folded eyes moistened again, and a young man covered his face on a small table and cried bitterly.

"Don't lose it! Don't lose it again! Even if I starve to death in the future, I don't want to lose my precious girl again!"

After Mei Xiangdao whispered this sentence in a suppressed voice, she ran back to her house crying.

The hand, which was similar to the skin on his face, slowly stretched out to the ground, and the third watch tilted his head and quickly moved away. Daddy Wan's bitter face showed a little warmth, and he picked up the cigarette stick and gently knocked it twice on the head of the third watch, "It's really a little trouble." ”

The third watch was coiled in front of the table, and the candles burst out from time to time, and the sound was vague. Later, Daddy Wan couldn't tell whether it was the snake spitting out the letter or the lights going out.

————————

"There is a first time, there is a second time, but when the second time it happens, the third watch can already understand people's words. It knows that your father and mother give you food every day because they are ready to give up on you, and they can't stand the condemnation in their hearts, so they want to be nice to you. It also knows that your brother is willing to be well-behaved and obedient in front of your father and mother, and to be arrogant and strong in front of you alone. Contrary to what your father and mother think, every day your food goes into his belly, and the person who can really endure it for a day by drinking boiled water is actually you. ”

"Your parents tricked you into the forest and left on their own, expecting to starve you to death, but never thought that this conspiracy had fallen into the ears of the third watch. He picks fruit for you to eat every day, and leads you out of the woods where you almost died. ”

Hua Xi paused obviously when he said this. She wanted to see Brother Zhao's expression, she wanted to know if this girl was already unstable at this moment, and whether she had created another bloody incident?

Brother Zhao really had tears on her delicate and immature face, she almost softened her body, and her eyes were full of disbelief. Yan Fei, who was crying, almost wanted to leave immediately.

"Why is this happening...... Zhao Di took two steps back and fell to the ground, the golden dagger fell to the side alone, she clenched her fist against her chest, and repeated a sentence out of breath.

"Why is this happening?"

Who knows?

If you want to blame, blame this providence for playing tricks on people, and Feng/Jiantai eats people.

Hua Xi didn't give her a chance to breathe, she has experienced this kind of thing a lot, and her mood is always difficult to make waves. Yan Fei was soft-hearted and couldn't see this, and the wicked person who pierced the screen paper and revealed the blood in front of people still had to be the one himself.

"In order to solve the problem of food shortage caused by drought, Sanguan went to far away places every day to collect wild mountain mushrooms, vegetables and fruits and deliver them to your home. Some fungi are so ordinary that they can't tell whether they are poisonous or not, so they often test themselves for poison. If it hadn't been for its cultivation, I'm afraid it would have died before those toadstools. Soon you ushered in the rain, and soon you forgot who took a basket of mountain mushrooms and wild vegetables to help you through the most difficult days. ”

"Your father and mother have even decided to trade their lives for an illusory possibility, in exchange for a little money that can be made by selling a cart of rice. At the moment when it is put into the sack by your father and mother and sent to the cutting board, it feels that it wants to repay the kindness, and it has been repaid. ”

Wan San didn't expect it. The one who ran to the town overnight to find the hotel and risked his life to save its life would be you. A little girl who has not grown all her teeth, who is only a promise in her life, is the daughter of a father and mother of the Wan family. ”

"The world has a code of ethics, but they don't recognize it. They only recognize that if they have kindness, they will repay it, and it has nothing to do with heavenly principles and ethics. From the moment you lifted it out of the iron cage in great distress, it recognized you as the Lord. ”

"From now on, I will never give up. ”

————————

"Daddy. Mei Xiangdao walked to Daddy Wan with a helpless face and said a few words in his ear. Wan still wishes to be not good at homework, but at this moment, seeing that his mother was biting his ears with his father, he was arguing, and he also raised his brother's homework book above his head and waved it.

"What's the noise!" Daddy Wan was angry and slapped Wan on the fart/share, "Do your homework hard and learn from your sister!"

"I don't want to learn from Zhao Di, what can the little girl's family do in the future?"

Daddy Wan took out a dry tobacco stick from his trouser pocket and was about to smoke, but was stopped by Mei Xiangdao. "Okay, okay, daddy, the cub is still young, let's get down to business first. ”

Daddy Wan sighed, "It's all what you're used to." After that, he was dragged into the house by Mei Xiangdao.

"What's wrong with the little girl, the little girl can also learn very well. When Brother Zhao saw his parents enter the house, he pouted and defended his brother. In fact, she didn't want to prove that girls can be useful, but she felt that she was an older sister after all, and her younger brother was a little too rude to talk to herself. It's okay to be in your own house like this, but if you go out in the future, you will be embarrassed for their old family.

Wan still wishes to care about this, squeezed his eyebrows, and pinched his throat to imitate Brother Zhao's demeanor just now, "What's wrong with the little girl, the little girl can also learn very well." Hahahahaha, what's the use of the little girl learning this, she doesn't have to mend clothes and cook for the master in the future, what can she do, learning this is a waste of money!"

Brother Zhao had no way to refute it, so he had to sit down and continue to do his homework, holding his breath in his stomach. She's used to it anyway.

In the house, Mei Xiangdao was discussing with Daddy Wan more than ten years later.

"Child, it's not that you can't consider what you said, it's just that it's a little too early......" Father Wan hesitated, and the things his wife brought up made him very embarrassed.

Mei Xiangdao pulled the hanging sleeves, sighed and said: "But this also has to be considered, isn't it, the girl is fourteen years old, and she is a big girl, if we don't do things now, will it be difficult for someone else to match yin in the future?"

"What nonsense are you!" Father Wan suddenly rushed to the top of his head with anger when he heard this, "What do you mean by being a yin, it's better for you to say it as a mother! Yes, sooner or later, someone else's family will raise a girl so big, but what is the matter with yin, is it difficult for us to kill the girl alive for some money?"

Mei Xiangdao hurriedly pressed Father Wan, who was about to get out of control, onto the chair, "What are you talking nonsense about this old man? Where do I mean this, I'm not making an analogy, it's better for a girl to marry now than to marry out later." Now that people see her as young, maybe they can still raise her as half a daughter, and if she grows older in the future, she will have to be treated as a daughter-in-law. When the time comes, how can we rest assured that we will be parents?"

"You're talking light. Daddy Wan clenched his fist and knocked twice on the table with one hand, "In these years, how can there be a mother-in-law who raises the daughter-in-law who carries the daughter-in-law into the door as his own girl, you are just confused." ”

"Then what should I do? Your relatives who killed a thousand knives have lost all the money we gave last time, and we don't have any savings now, where can we go to get money after we have worked hard all our lives?" Mei Xiangdao spread her hands, "My son is older, and I will have to marry a daughter-in-law in ten years, right?" Do you have money, can you get the money!"

Father Wan stomped on the ground, "This doesn't have a house, a field, and can you starve them to death?"

Mei Xiangdao hammered him to death, and his heart was also gone, "There is a house and a field, and there is a fart! Without those children, which girl is blind and married, what do you want the family to do?"

"Do you have to get a piece of money to count with our son?" Father Wan spat on the ground, "Phew, then don't enter the door of our old family." ”

Mei Xiangdao poked a finger on Daddy Wan's head, "Our son is made of gold and silver, how precious are you to be our son?"

Father Wan raised his head and stared at Mei Xiangdao, his eyes were red and dazzling, "But that old Zhou family's cub is lame!"

"The lame man gives a lot of money, his father!" Mei Xiangdao hated that iron could not become steel, and there was a crying tone in her tone, "We are both old, our son still has to marry a daughter-in-law, and we will have to see a doctor and provide for the elderly in the future." You can't point to your son in everything. ”

"But, but ......" Daddy Wan was stunned for a long time, and then he burst into tears.

"Don't be sad, daddy. Mei Xiangdao forced out a smile, "Lao Zhou's family has an orchard, and life is much better than ours." Since they are willing to spend so much money to marry our girl, they will definitely be good to our girl in the future. You say, isn't it?"

"You've said that, what else can I say?" Daddy Wan wiped his face heavily with a pair of calloused hands, "How is that kid's character?"

Mei Xiangdao tried hard to comfort, "The person with good character, quite an honest boy, is five years older than our girl." If our family becomes a family, it will be much better than the daughter of the old family next door. ”

"The old Wanjia girl married a little animal/student. Father Wan seemed to think of something, and there was a little hatred in his tears.

Mei Xiangdao took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, "But what can be done, it's also the girl's life." I have carried it over, and I can't go back to my mother's house to live. That old family still has a face. ”

The old lamp tube made a clanging sound, and only Wanjia's parents could be heard sobbing in the room. Daddy Wan was tired of crying and his eyes were dry and uncomfortable, so he turned his eyes and looked at the table. On the table, there is a childish painting that has been pressed tightly by the owner like a glass baby.

It was a family portrait drawn by his younger brother in pencil.

He still remembered that his own girl came to him with that painting with a red face, so small, so tender, so happy.

Tears finally poured out of the dry eye frames uncontrollably, and the piercing eyes hurt. He trembled and took his wife's hand and buried his whole face deeply.

"Ah Xiang, ah......"

"We're not marrying a girl, we're selling a girl......"

————————

Hua Xi paused, and the family photo he had seen in the information came to his mind, the family photo drawn by Zhao Di, and the sea of his heart was like a wind blowing through the ripples.

"Your parents didn't know that at the moment when they hugged each other and cried, the third watch listened carefully outside the window. Because your parents didn't choose a wedding day for you that night, the third watch never knew which auspicious day it was. It spends the night outside your window in horror, and the fact that you are going to be married to a cripple by your parents is a big blow to it. ”

"At this moment, your parents are no longer the owners it recognizes, so this time, the way it chooses to protect you is to cut off the source and cut off the roots, and help you get rid of the people who really want to harm you. ”

The behavior of this golden python seems to be revenge, but in fact, the snake is more sympathetic than human.

Yan Fei heard this, I don't know if it was because he turned his back to Brother Zhao and couldn't see Brother Zhao kneeling on the ground crying bitterly at this time, so he added a sentence very ruthlessly.

"Brother Zhao, you know that the python will die if it swallows two adults and a child, of course the third watch also knows. So, can you understand what I mean?" Yan Fei finished speaking, and estimated Brother Zhao's current state in her heart, well, according to Brother Zhao's current level of mental damage, she may really not be able to listen to the meaning of what she just said. I had to sort out the meaning in my mind, and explain it to my brother after finishing the book.

In its eyes, right is right, wrong is wrong, kindness must be repaid, and the happiness of the benefactor is more important than its life. ”

It knew that it would die if it swallowed three people in a row, but it did it anyway. It doesn't even want its own life, so how can it care about the lives of others? It felt like it was worth the deal. ”

Brother Zhao knelt on the ground, Yan Fei's words reached her ears word for word, and she felt as if she was about to collapse. The dagger that the third watch gave her fell next to her, and she seemed to be faintly feeling the warmth of the dagger from so far away.

Yes, warmth. The warmth of a sharp weapon that hurts people.

It is willing to cut through thorns and obstacles for its master, and it is willing to exchange its own fragments for the happiness of its master.

The cold is held in the palm of the hand, but it can protect the safety of your life.

"But—"

Hua Xi spoke again, Yan Fei knew that when Hua Xi said these two words, it meant that she was going to start torturing your values.

"What's wrong with your parents?"

Yan Fei: "......"

Sure enough.

Hua Xi took a deep breath and began her argument. "Your parents have been diligent all their lives, keeping the ancestral motto passed down from generation to generation: passing on the ancestral teachings from generation to generation. ”

"For them, the education they received from an early age is like this, the son is the root, and the daughter cannot take over the family business no matter how good she is, and in the end what has been passed down for hundreds of years has to be passed down to outsiders. Whether you are willing or unwilling is another matter, but when you return to the underworld after a hundred years, how can you have the face to meet your ancestors and ancestors?"

"What has been handed down for thousands of years, they can only obey it, and they are powerless to resist. ”

"I don't know about your parents in other people's families, but your parents have exhausted their greatest love under the thousand-pound ancestral training. It may not be a big deal for us, but for them, it's really the best effort. They used to think about having an abortion when they were pregnant with your brother, and every time they were ready to do something to hurt you, the most painful thing was themselves. And always try to minimize your pain. ”

"But I know it's useless for me to say that. Hua Xi suddenly said, "Because their values are already deep-rooted, even if they love your daughter again, they will eventually give up on you for the values they are sticking to." 166 Reading Network
