Chapter 2 If It's Empty, It's Empty!

Between the mountains, there were patches of rain and mist, and the sound of birds and insects came and went, but I didn't feel that it was so bored. The air after the rain www.biquge.info fresh enough to make an old man in his twilight years hum happily on the mountain road.

This person is Zhan Laohan, and now he seems to be several times younger than yesterday, and his sadness as always has long since disappeared, replaced by a joyful smile.

At this moment, he was holding a child firmly wrapped in bandages, perhaps he was too tired from the bumps in the mountain road, and the child was sleeping soundly. Zhan Laohan walked for a long time with the child in his arms, and he didn't feel tired, he still stared at the treasure in his hand with a smile on his face, humming happily.

The next morning, a little cool, the ground was still wet, the old man got up early in the morning, stretched his waist, touched the nose of the "elf" in his arms, smiled happily, walked out of the mossy cave he found yesterday, and embarked on the way home.

On this day, the old man Zhan was in a very good mood, and let the baptism of the dew that had been hoarded in the flowers and plants last night on the side of the mountain road, the trouser legs were soaked, and it felt strange and uncomfortable to stick to the teaching. At this moment, he has only one idea in his heart, that is, to go home quickly, firstly, to save his wife at home from worrying, secondly, he also wants to surprise his wife, and thirdly, Zhan Laohan is naturally afraid that the child will be taken back, even if Zhan Laohan knows that this is immoral, but he has no reason to persuade himself to put the child back.

"I hope this is a fatherless and motherless child, this child appears in a really strange place, but it can't be so much. If you had parents, I'm sure I wouldn't be any worse off than you, eh, it's a big deal, and I'll pay it back later. Touching the boy's head, in order to make himself feel as good as possible, the old man could only think like this.

At the entrance of the blue sky town, half of the foundation of the tablet at the gate has been exposed, because the weather is early, there are no people on the road, three-tenths of the leaves on the big trees side by side on both sides have fallen to the ground, and the old man has stepped on it one by one, and it is soft and comfortable.

For some reason, Zhan Laohan became inexplicably nervous, and his right eyelid fluttered and jumped. Walking into the town, the road was a mess, there were all kinds of items, more vegetables, fruits or something, after a night of erosion, at this time it had exuded a faint smell of erosion.

Zhan Laohan's home is at the entrance of the town, come back to his senses, look at his door, Zhan Laohan walked over quickly, and gently pushed open the fence door.

"Squeak"

"Plop plop plop...."Zhan Laohan's heart beat hard.

The fence door was opened, and the courtyard was relatively tidy compared to the street, except for the bamboo shoots and dried baskets and bamboo poles for drying clothes dumped on the stone table in the center of the courtyard. The pigs in the pigsty were also quite quiet, obediently lying on the edge of the trough and humming. Everything is normal, but what about my wife?

"Wife!" The old man ran to his room and pushed the door open.

"Bang, bang" the door slammed into the wooden wall behind it with great force.

When you open the door, you are greeted by a double wooden bed and two chairs, a table with a cup and a jug of water on it, and that's it. And the wife who was always worried about the old man was hanging her head, half-covering the quilt, leaning on the head of the bed.

"Wife, wife, wife?" Zhan Laohan walked in step by step, and the voice of calling for his wife became louder and louder.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." Zhan Laohan thought silently in his heart, reminding himself at all times.

Walking to his wife, the old man exhaled rapidly, his eyes widened, as if he used all his strength to stretch out his hand, shook his wife's shoulder, the wife was like a dandelion that could not withstand the wind, and when he touched it, he fell to the side of the bed, and his body was boneless.

Seeing this, the old man put the child aside, hurriedly helped his wife up, and put his index finger trembling between her snorts.

"Huh? Wife! What's going on, why did you just leave? ”

Zhan Laohan sat on the floor in front of the bed with his buttocks, motionless, because he really couldn't accept this fact, yesterday was fine, yin and yang were separated, and it only took one night.

Zhan Laohan has no friends in his life, and there is no peach blossom luck, only her wife is willing to follow him unconditionally in the first half of his life, even if he suffers hardship, he has no regrets when he is tired, even Zhan Laohan can't have children, she doesn't have any ideas, but often comforts Zhan Laohan, the old man only promises to be good to her in this life, the two of them are in love with each other, take care of each other, and also spend this long and long decades, deep feelings, and now this wife says to leave, even the last side is not seen, how can the old man not regret, how can he not be heartbroken.

Time passed slowly, the sun rose in the east and set in the west, and the sky suddenly became dark. Suddenly, the wind rose, mixed with a light rain, and the leaves on the ground shook slightly, as if they were about to dance with the wind. The wind was strong, the rain was slanting, and the leaves outside the house had just left the ground, and they were instantly knocked back to the ground by the heavy rain, and the wind was sometimes whistling, sometimes intermittently, pulling the branches, making a creaking sound, like playing a sad song for this early spring dusk.

The rain entered the house with the wind, fell on the floor, split into several parts, and flew in all directions, some on the ground far away, some on the elbow of the old man.

"You are the only pillar I have lived in this world in my life, and now, you really left me first, what do you say I should do, my heart has been hollowed out, what is the difference between this and a walking corpse." Zhan Laohan cried in grief, his palms kept being afraid of hitting the floor, and in this way, he was talking back and forth, and he cried for nearly two hours. In the end, he picked up his wife on the bed, rushed into the rain, and ran away without looking back.

The little baby who was put aside had already woken up, seeing this scene, hearing this heart-rending sound, but not crying or making trouble, still blinking his eyes, four "little paws" waving in the air, and sometimes slapping the edge of the bed, and sometimes even a few wow sounds, revealing a mouth full of teeth.

In the mountains, the thunder rumbled, and under a pomegranate tree, an old man with messy hair and wrinkled face, kneeling there in rags and linen clothes, silent, letting the wind and rain blow. When there was no thunder, it was dark, thunder and lightning flashed, revealing such a ghost, several people nearby were startled when they passed by, they all thought it was a lonely ghost, but the old man didn't care, picked up a dagger in his hand and held it high in front of his chest, his eyes were bleak, and he looked like he was going to die.

"Huh!" Strands of silver and black hair slipped from the air and fell silently to the ground.

Lowering his head, the old man sobbed softly, and said very unwillingly: "Since it is empty, it will be empty, and it is okay to do this, or it is good, since we met under the pomegranate tree, it is completely over." “

Lightning and thunder roared, and time flew by.
