Chapter 18: Hunger

Chen Yu left the entrance of the vegetable market, he couldn't figure out where he was, he just walked north, he knew that the south gate was very dangerous, and he saw with his own eyes that Yue Xiao was going in the direction of the south gate. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Chen Yu now, I want to see Su Man, but I am afraid to see my sister Chen Yao. Suman is right, the two of them are together, they are a target, and they are very dangerous.

Chen Yu just went north mechanically, he didn't know what would happen next, whether he could find Su Man and Chen Yao. He had to get out of here for a while.

The nine-year-old boy had gone through so many ordeals in less than twenty days, but the ordeal quickly allowed the little man to grow up.

Although he knew that she was a girl with ideas in his previous contact with Su Man, she matured earlier than ordinary girls. Her parents have been praising her all the time.

But he didn't expect that in the past half a month, he saw Su Man, who was really in trouble, and saw how she solved the problems one by one in the midst of difficulties.

Chen Yu felt that he was a man, and it was time to come out and take responsibility. He can't hurt himself and his sister again.

He knew in his heart that Su Man would take Chen Yao to find him. He knew that Su Man was in a hurry. However, the scene that had just happened made his heart tremble.

When he was talking to Yue Xiao in the back, he had seen two people asking about the two children, those two children, a man and a woman, the female was older than Chen Yao, and the male was about the same age as himself. Then he saw that the two children had been taken away, followed by the adults who nodded and bowed, probably the father of the two children, who had been explaining something.

Now that I think about it, it's easy to explain. Those two people are also secret agents, and they are interrogating every suspicious object.

Thanks to the cold, Chen Yu thought, if it weren't for the cold, if it weren't for the beggar they look like now, how could they have escaped such a careful investigation? Now they look like even their parents, and they have recognized them for a long time. That was the discovery of Suman after discovering them. If they walked away, their parents didn't even know their children.

I don't know how long I walked, but the sun set, and a strong wind blew on my face like a knife.

Chen Yu felt tired and hungry, so she still ate the leftover fox meat in the morning, only a small piece, Su Man took a knife and gave them two to eat, and she herself just roasted some fox skin to satisfy her hunger.

Chen Yu held his hands and squatted in the corner of a large courtyard to avoid the wind, but it was still cold. Chen Yu shrunk her head into her neck, which was more comfortable.

At this moment, a carriage came running from a distance, stopped in front of the door, and a noble lady came down from the carriage, greased and powdered, and plump, but wearing a sheepskin jacket and a big red dress.

This also doesn't go with clothes, Chen Yu thought.

"Where did you get the food? Why don't you want to go? On such a cold day, wouldn't it be unfortunate to freeze to death here? ā€

I saw the coachman nodding hurriedly, coming over with a horsewhip, and pointing at Chen Yudao.

"Why don't you go quickly? Find a warmer place to stay, you will have to freeze to death here! ā€

Chen Yu stood up and tucked away his torn padded jacket.

"Uncle, give me something to eat, I haven't eaten for a day!" Chen Yu held back for a long time and said this.

"! I haven't eaten it yet! "The coachman was a little impatient.

In winter, there are more beggars in the capital. The coachman wasn't a bad guy yet, but his patience was long gone, and that bit of sympathy was numb. Because there were so many beggars, he couldn't sympathize with them all.

Chen Yu was yelled at by others, and he didn't know how to grind a few more words, say something good, sometimes say a few more words, people have a kind heart, and they will really give him half of the cold steamed buns to eat.

Chen Yu looked at the whip in the coachman's hand and left in a hurry.

The sky was getting dark, and Chen Yu, who was hungry and cold, had tears flowing down somehow. Wind? Or is it a grievance? Or is it because there is no home?

Chen Yu didn't shed tears when his parents fell one after another, and Dongwang Chen Jing repeatedly taught him that boys bleed without tears. Watching his father and mother fall, Chen Yu at that time was only full of hatred, he hated Yang Ji, he couldn't wait to cut him with a thousand knives, and he couldn't wait to set foot in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It's really useless, Chen Yu hurriedly wiped away his tears, looked left and right, fortunately, no one.

Chen Yu felt ashamed for the first time, but the tears just didn't fight, and they came again after wiping them.

My father and mother died, my sister was separated, and Su Man, the only reliance I could not find. found a sheltered place, but was chased away again, and not only did he not give him food, but he was also scolded.

Chen Yu walked and walked, and the tears never stopped. Chen Yu wiped it again and again.

The cold hunger and the pain of the heel wound all combined to make this strong teenager unable to control himself anymore.

He sobbed quietly, then cried.

There were no pedestrians outside, and even those who returned late were in a comfortable carriage with a stove in their hands, hurrying home.

No one listened to him cry, and he could only walk aimlessly.

"That's fate!"

When the temple was broken, Suman often said this to him.

"Life?" Chen Yu asked, "What is life?" ā€

"What is life? Life is the life of your life, some people say that it is arranged by God, and it is not up to you to control, and some people say that you can change it. It depends on how you look at it, positive people, will work hard, will actively strive for any opportunity. Negative people, on the other hand, will only sigh, will only complain, and will only go against the grain. ā€

Chen Yu really couldn't walk, so he sat under a big tree, thinking about Su Man's words.

The ground was already frozen, and the cold air penetrated through the cotton pants and only drilled into Chen Yu's body.

No, I have to change it, change my destiny. Chen Yu cheered himself up, he wiped away his tears and got up, he couldn't stay in this place, otherwise he would really freeze to death.

At this time, Chen Yu remembered the broken temple.

Although Su Man said that they would not go back, all Chen Yu was thinking about now was the happy time in the broken temple, eating fox meat when he was hungry and covering fox skin when he was cold. Now that there is no fox meat in the temple, doesn't Sister Suman still roast and eat fox skin? The fox skin in the temple is mostly yes.

Chen Yu thought that if he could find Su Man on the second day, he would still go back to the broken temple. At least it won't suffer as it is now.

Chen Yu immediately vetoed himself again, he couldn't go to Su Man and his sister, it was too dangerous.

Men should be self-reliant, Chen Yu remembered his father's words, yes, he has to live on his own. Now that her sister is being taken by Su Man, Chen Yu is very relieved, after all, Su Man has the ability to live.

In the dead of night, Chen Yu was tired, too tired. He stopped at the edge of a large courtyard and circled the courtyard, behind which there was a corner gate, and the door was locked.

Chen Yu leaned against the corner door and fell asleep in a moment. However, he woke up in the night from the cold, and his feet were so numb that he couldn't move, so he sat down with the numbness, took off his shoes, and rubbed his feet with his hands, which was still the method that Suman taught him.

When it was better, Chen Yu didn't dare to sleep anymore, he just took a nap, got up and stomped his feet for a while, ran a few steps, and then grabbed some snow and put it in his mouth.

On the second day, when the rooster crowed three times, Chen Yu turned around and walked to the south gate.

At noon, he finally returned to the broken temple, he had no strength, he leaned against the wall for a long time, the wheat straw was still there, the broken cotton tire was still there, and the fox skin was still there.

After resting for a while, Chen Yu crawled over, picked up the fox skin and bit it, but couldn't bite it. He picked up the fire sickle, followed Su Man's example, and after a long time, he actually lit the fire. He burned off the fur of the fox fur and began to roast it, first it was so mushy that it was hard to swallow, and the second one was better, Chen Yu ate it, but he didn't feel unpalatable.

After a few days like this, I finally regained my strength. There are fewer and fewer fox skins, and if it goes on like this, there is no way.

Chen Yu remembered Yue Xiao's words when he was leaving, and he began to pack up the broken cotton tire, tie it with strips of cloth, and bring the roasted fox skin and carry it on his back.

Before leaving, he shook a handful of wheat straw, swept a large piece of clean ground on the ground, and wrote a few words.

Those words are: Sister, I'm leaving, don't look for me, I'm going to the south, I will entrust my sister to my sister, please take care of her, if he can see her alive one day, I will repay my sister for saving her life, I will come here to contact my sister ten years later.

After writing, Chen Yu smiled bitterly, Su Man, will they come back? She said they wouldn't come back.
