Chapter 7: The Mighty Mountain Wind (5) (6)

The sound of the door opening kept ringing, and then there was the cry of some women.

The sky was clear, and there was not a trace of clouds, as if nothing had happened in the night? Another bright and bright day fell on a new day in Xinghua Village, but as far as the eye could see, the uneven village was a different scene.

The whole courtyard of Xinghua Village, from northwest to southeast, straight to the wind line, along the center of the village crossing, the new and old houses where they passed, all were lifted by the strong wind, the roof grass on the roof did not know where to go, only the bare grass rake, soaked in the wet muddy water, the street, everywhere there were stones, grass clippings and branches and leaves, and there were many trees, or broken waists, or tilted on the side of the road, or lying on the road, the whole village everywhere presented a miserable scene that had just suffered the baptism of war.

The villagers gathered in the streets and alleys, unkempt and disheveled, all with wide-eyed and startled eyes, stunned to see all this, they were all stunned, stupid, stupid, unable to gossip, unable to drag their legs and feet, unable to turn their heads.

The cries of the women have gradually shifted to the apricot groves around the village, to the fields farther and farther away.

The crops in the field have fallen in patches, some of the seedlings have been swept away by the wind, and they have to be replanted and replanted, as for whether they can catch up with the solar terms and get the harvest after the autumn, who has no bottom in their hearts, and more importantly, yesterday was still a fruitful apricot forest, only the stumps and leaves remained, and the missing arms and legs were scattered in the field, and the oily green leaves of the trees were gone, and the attractive green and yellow apricot fruits were missing, only the scarred branches, in the display of the calamity and horror that could not be looked back on last night, the damp ground in the apricot grove was piled up with a thick layer of apricot fruits, and there was no longer a bright color of green and yellow, and it was the color of dead ash。

So far, the good dream of more than two years of rushing to sell apricot fruit and Tibetan tickets has been completely shattered, scattered and desolate, and the cries of women and men's laments are heard everywhere, filling the empty and lonely mountains, one after another, endlessly.

Mao Lin was like a faint wolf, wandering through the villages, wandering in the wild apricot forest, his hair was messy, his eyes were blood-red, and his mouth was muttering, but no one could hear what he was talking about.

Sour apricot couldn't, so she called Feng'er, who was also panicked, and told her to call Zhenfu quickly, and quickly thought of organizing the villagers to produce to save themselves, Feng'er didn't dare to slack off, and called Zhenfu with a gust of wind, Zhenfu was also a face of vicissitudes, it seemed that overnight, he had aged a lot, and there were still uncleaned eye feces on the corners of his eyes, and the wrinkled gown was draped diagonally over his shoulders.

Sour apricot said, this disaster is not small, since our village has suffered a catastrophe, it has been more than 40 years, now, the xylophone is not at home, Maolin is a little ignorant, the villagers are always so stupid and sad how to do it, or to play up the spirit, it is important to organize the villagers to fight the disaster and save themselves, my legs and feet are not dexterous, just wander around the village to watch, you and Feng'er to the village cadres to divide the labor, take people to search and search from house to house, there are no collapsed houses, there are no injuries, what should be repaired, just repair! Settle the people down first, and then go and clean up the crops and apricot groves in the fields, you see.

Zhenfu rubbed his wrinkled and hard face fiercely, and replied, I have to do this, anyway, it happened, just clean it up slowly! You don't have to be anxious, pay attention to your legs, feet and body, at this time, don't dare to lie down tired, we are all counting on you to take the helm.

Zhenfu's words were warm in his heart, he nodded heavily, and limped between the courtyards near and far.
