431. Natural and man-made disasters
Two people sat on the stones of the dam, and in the warm sunshine of the Mongolian plateau in the golden autumn of August, both of them looked into the distance. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In front of you is an endless flat field and grassland, although the grassland in August is not a wind-blown grassland to see cattle and sheep, it is also a green season, everything is so leisurely and calm. In this vast world, people forget their own existence.
Close your eyes, and the orange sunlight seeps into your eyes, like a fairyland. Shandan didn't think about her situation for a while, she wanted to enjoy this moment of peace.
Next to the dam is the mysterious Ao Bao Mountain, it is said that Genghis Khan passed by here during the war and buried a lot of treasures here, but it is also said that this place is blessed by a secret spell, no one dares to come here to "dig treasure", it is said that those who destroy this mountain will not die well.
After sitting quietly for a long time, the sisters got up and walked back slowly.
In this familiar and intimate environment, Shandan felt peaceful and tranquil, compared to heaven and earth, every life is small and insignificant.
Life is only a few decades short, whether it is good or bad, how can it be lived? Compared with the people who are digging in this yellow earth, how can life be better, people's spirits cannot collapse, ten years ago there was nothing, and it is not the same?
I am grateful to God for so many years of love, so that she can appreciate the beauty and love of life, and try her best to live a better life in the future, for the person who once loved him - to give him a safe place, to these beloved relatives can rest assured, and to give children a normal and warm growth environment.
Cry when you are sad, in order to remove the toxins of sorrow from your body. Let's go back to life after crying, life has to go on.
When your sorrow and grief have no object to dump uncontrollably, then let it go secretly.
Shandan measured the land under her feet step by step, this piece of land that gave birth to her and raised her, whether she returned in glory or lost her soul, it accepted her and soothed her with its broad and broad mind, every slope beam, every meadow, and even every stone quietly comforted her, so that she was relaxed and comfortable.
She even wanted to wander among the plants and trees she knew and never leave.
Soon after the sisters returned home, the arid steppe and the clear sky suddenly became cloudy, followed by lightning and thunder, and torrential rain.
The lightning bolt continued as if it was about to tear a hole in the sky, and the deafening thunder was terrifying, what happened to the world?
The family sat in front of the window and watched the rain pour down from the eaves, and the yard immediately became a large pond, and the hens hid under the eaves of the sheepfold, hanging one foot to avoid the splashing rain.
Just like the nature of the grassland that has always rained, an hour later, the rain passed and the sky cleared. The sun appeared in the sky again, and the humidity of the rain in the air and the aroma of the earth were refreshing.
After a drought in the autumn, after this sudden rain, people walked out of their homes and gathered outside the gate of Tiedan'er Mother in the middle of the village.
The rainwater flowing down from the east courtyard wall was still like a small stream, and Tie Dan'er took a shovel to dig a trench to trap the precious rainwater and introduce it into his manure hole, so that the accumulated pig and sheep manure could be fermented and decomposed, so that it could be used to fertilize the fields in the next year.
"This rain is a bit rare today, why did you do it so suddenly, and just leave?" said Li Sixiao next door.
"I saw that there was a 'soul chasing thunder' in Nanliang, and the fireball fell to the ground like a fire. Wang Sanwa replied.
"If you inquire about it, it is estimated that there will be another death, otherwise how can you do it like this if it doesn't rain?" Jia Si also said.
"Hasn't it rained like this all these years? The weather is abnormal, and there are more thunderstorms. Cattle and sheep grazing in the grass can be paid attention to, this thunder is really not good stubble. Li Sixiao said.
When everyone was discussing the bizarre rain of today, I watched a flock of sheep come down from Nanliang.
"It's over! Whose flock is this? I'm afraid that something will happen to this flock of sheep! The 'soul chasing thunder' I will see is at this moment!" Wang Sanwa said, pointing to the sheep that were going downhill with the flood.
Slowly approaching, I saw the shepherd behind the flock, waving the shovel in his hand vigorously, and shouting loudly.
The flat grassland, the sound can be heard far away.
Everyone heard that they were shouting "iron eggs".
Seeing that it was Tie Dan'er's flock, Tie Dan'er put down his shovel and went up to meet it.
"What's the matter? Is it thundering, or is it raining?" said Iron Dan'er as he hurried up to meet him.
"Thunder has struck!" the shepherd was also drenched in the rain like a chicken in soup.
"What is the rain called, what is it called? crackling for a while, just chopping three sheep to death and leaving?" scolded the shepherd.
"Three?" Tie Dan'er couldn't believe it, and thundered to kill three sheep at once?
"Wow the balls!!—stabbed (killed) three of them at once!" replied the shepherd.
"What a loss, three big sheep?" Iron Egg asked, approaching.
"It's not a big sheep, three big ewes. If you don't say the least, you'll have to lose five thousand dollars!!—that's five thousand enemies in less than an hour!," said the shepherd, standing down and touching the rain on his face.
"Where's that?-!" Iron Dan stomped his feet in distress.
"Over there, on the edge of the eight-legged field, three sheep were piled together, and a thunderclap came down and they all split. The shepherd pointed not far away.
"Are you okay, wow, if the sheep dies, it's a ball?!" said Tie Dan'er hatefully.
"I'm fine, and I'm not far away, when I saw a fireball fall down into the flock, and after the smoke passed, he killed three sheep, all yours. What the is the weather? Go and see what's going on. The shepherd went away with the flock.
Tie Dan'er thought as she walked: Isn't this Haiping angry that Shandan and Xiaoyu haven't killed the sheep when they come back? The question is who still has the heart to kill the sheep and eat it? You are leaving irresponsibly, how can we still be in the mood to eat? If you come back together, don't talk about killing the sheep! Even if you kill the cow, my brother is willing!
Walking in and seeing three sheep that were struck by lightning, all of them with wide eyes, straight limbs stiff, and swollen stomachs, checked each sheep, and found no obvious skin injuries, Tie Dan'er silently muttered: "God is merciful, do you want to eat mutton?" ”
Tie Dan'er's mother, Shandan, and Erlian walked out, and they had already seen Tie Dan'er walking back, and when they learned that Lei had split three sheep, Tie Dan'er's mother was distressed enough.
Tie Dan'er went home and drove the tricycle, and Erlian sat on it to pull the dead sheep back. A few people came to the village to help, and they peeled and cleaned up a few sheep, and found that each sheep's heart, liver and lungs were shattered by thunder. Tie Dan'er divided some mutton, water, and head and hooves for a few people, and stuffed the rest of the mutton into the freezer.
Looking at her brother's loss, Shandan felt that life was really difficult, for a rural family, losing 5,000 yuan at once, that was a big number! She secretly decided that when she left home, she would make up for the expenses of her mother and brother going back and forth to Yongcheng this time, after all, it was easier for her to earn money without being exposed to the wind and rain.
