Bald mountains, cracked riverbeds, and a great drought hit this area, and at first glance it looks like autumn, golden yellow. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Tiangu Village, a village in Yunnan Province that is not seen by others. This small village is home to at least 10 ethnic groups, who work from sunrise to sunset. It's a pity that this year's rain is coming in the future, and the transportation is inconvenient, so it is difficult for the government's relief resources to reach for a while.

Now the only thing they can do is to climb over dozens of mountains to see that there is still wild game and wild vegetables, which can survive until the next year, so as to keep a full mouthful of food.

It seems that they have nothing to gain today, but hunger has become their daily life, and the only thing they are worried and afraid of is that their children and the elderly at home will not survive, so they have to continue to work hard.

"Old Zhu! How have you gotten by? I can't find food, and the doll will starve to death. ”

It was the thinnest of the five who spoke, and there was no way to describe him except for being thin. His name is Li Dagou. He has eight children, two elderly people, and a wife at home, and he is a prosperous person.

It's a pity that the ability is not fertile enough. Usually the poorer the people, the more dolls, because they don't understand moderation, the only thing they think of is that multiple people can contribute more and bring high income to the family. (It's true here, because I've seen it.) )

Lao Zhu said: "Isn't this a way? Not only our land, but many places are drought, and I heard that the officials are starving to death, and it is normal for us to starve to death. ”

The person who spoke was very old, he was a cultural person in the village, he had read the book, and he heard that he graduated from the third grade, and Gao Wen commented. is currently the head of Tiangu Village, and the person he said starved to death as an official, and that official was the village party secretary of the village next door to him. But it wasn't starvation, it was a natural death, and rumors always spread quickly in small mountain villages.

Li Dagou said: "Give it yes." What do you want to do? The doll is still small! This god doesn't have long eyes, how did you pass this day. Woooooooooooo ”

Li Dagou cried, it seems that he loves his child very much.

"Big dog, you just don't listen to telling you not to give birth to so many dolls, it's not raining now, what are you going to do. It won't rain next year. ”

The person who is talking now is called Li Tianniu, and he is Li Dagou's elder brother. His family had enough food for the next autumn harvest, but he couldn't bear to watch his brother's family starve to death, so he secretly gave him half of the grain.

It's a pity that there are few porridge and many monks, and the food of so many people's families is incalculable, and there is finally empty space.

In fact, the five of them have been looking for food for three days, and the most important thing is for Li Dagou's family, there is no way, there are many children in his family.

"Crying. We can find food, you doll can't starve. ”

The only person with a big earthen gun on his back among the five people was originally confiscated by the government, but this guy hid the earthen gun in a dung pit and avoided the seizure. And he has a very domineering name called "Quiet", hehe.

As for the last of the five, it was a child. is called He Xiaobai, and there is only one sister in the family named He Xiaoyu, who is eleven years old this year.

It's very strong, with messy hair, and wears clothes and pants that I don't know how many layers of patches there are. This is the only piece of clothing he has, and it is also the one in the village who has a harder life than Li Dagou, but he has a better life than Li Dagou.

He was very powerful, because He Xiaobai sent his sister He Xiaoyu to school three days away from Tiangu Village at the age of eleven, and the people in the village did not understand why he did this.

Because the distance is too far, He Xiaobai asked He Xiaoyu to live in the school, and he ran to pick up He Xiaoyu early every year when the holiday was about to end.

Once saw his sister He Xiaoyu being bullied, He Xiaobai beat people until they couldn't go to school, and went directly to someone's house and beat that person in front of their parents.

Of course, the price is that he was beaten on the hand, and when the injury healed, he ran to beat him, and he ran to beat him. People over and over again know that He Xiaoyu has a strong brother, and no one dares to bully He Xiaoyu after that, although people have told their children not to play with He Xiaoyu, but the child has an overnight feud, and he should fart.

It is said that this incident shocked the township government, and the government came to find out about the situation. only to find out that this eleven-year-old boy is simply a talent, and the person who was beaten by him was nothing more than a red buttocks, and nothing else.

But then, he was merciful, and others wouldn't, so he was beaten by his parents and dislocated. It is impossible for parents to be indifferent to see their children being beaten. Unless the man's parents are, beasts are inferior.

Although this is the case, people within a radius of several miles have said countless versions of this matter, and the final result is that He Xiaobai can rest assured that He Xiaoyu can be left in school to study, and he only needs to make up the five yuan of book fees and 100 kilograms of corn that He Xiaoyu needs to study for a year every year.

No one knows how hard He Xiaobai has to work for five yuan for books and 100 catties of corn, and he is also a good person thanks to the government, so he specially asked He Xiaoyu to waive the book fee and pay ten kilograms of corn a year, but He Xiaobai, a stinky guy, doesn't know what to do, he has to make up for it himself.

When someone from the government asked him why. He Xiaobai said: "If you earn it yourself, my sister will be able to study steadily." ”

An ordinary sentence made many people in the government cry, and they also worked harder to improve the local predicament, build roads, guide farmers how to grow better grain, and so on.

Things are man-made, and all bad things have gradually become better, but unfortunately agriculture depends on the land, but the land depends on the sky.

A big drought came so suddenly, so unexpectedly, that the high-spirited people were forced to a dead end.

If you don't have enough food, you can't eat enough, it doesn't matter, you can pull the belt of your pants. But how can you do without water, you can't cook without water, and the crops won't grow.

"Uncle Big Dog, I'm afraid, there is a mountain spirit (wild boar) living in the land I know, we will kill it, and we can hold on until the big official pulls the grain into the mountain." He Xiaobai said.

Li Dagou said: "White doll, pretend to me, Lao Zhu said that some officials are starving to death, where will anyone come to save us." ”

He Xiaobai said: "Uncle Big Dog, I heard the village chief talking nonsense, I heard when I picked up my sister that the officials were raising funds, and I heard that one side was in trouble, and all sides supported it." Soon the big officials will come, and we have to believe in them. ”

Li Tianniu said: "White doll, give it to the real one." Your little baby pretended to coax me, or I would kill you. ”

Quietly said: "I think what the white doll said may be true, the place where the rain baby studied is relatively close to the county seat, and we can hear a lot of things that we don't know." ”

Lao Zhu said: "It doesn't matter if he's really real, even if it's true, he will be able to survive until that time." That's really going to fix which mountain spirit.,I heard that it's very big.,I'm afraid the five of us are not opponents.。 "Reading is different. (My grandfather was in the sixth grade, and he used to be older than the mayor's officer, well, it was.) )

Li Dagou said: "Well, if you want to fix that, my family really has no food, and the doll will starve to death if it can't be done." ”

Lao Zhu said: "You agree to the whole." ”

The four of them all nodded, forced to be helpless, if they didn't save themselves, they had to wait for death, and life would always have to be brave.

I call this the pain of survival.
