Chapter 349: Gentleness
Wan Chun nodded: "Look at the appearance of the corpse has begun to decompose, it is necessary to bury it as soon as possible, if it is not buried, the rotting corpse is likely to pollute the water source, plus it has only rained recently, and the people who live are hungry and do not choose to eat, they will go to find water to drink, in case they drink the polluted water source, I am afraid that there will be a plague."

Ji Yuan agreed, and without further ado, he helped Wan Chun up, sent her to rest in the carriage, and instructed people to start rehousing the corpses and the people who survived.
After Wanchun rested for a while, he also began to get out of the car and look around on the wounded. At this time, it was nearly evening, and the brilliant sunset covered half of the sky, as if a raging fire was burning on the blue satin, burning from the horizon to the horizon.
Wan Chun lowered his head and was bandaging the wounds of a child about six or seven years old, who had been lucky enough to be hidden under his parents and had escaped the tip of the Japanese army's sword. It's a pity that when he found him, he had been waiting by the corpses of his parents for two days, his little face was full of panic, and the blood on his wrist cut by the tip of the knife had begun to dry up. Wan Chun looked at it, feeling distressed, while carefully cleaning his wounds, while talking to him softly, comforting his young wounded heart.
The child was very afraid of her approach at first, but after she was softly persuaded and comforted, the tense little body slowly relaxed, and on her innocent face, a pair of big eyes blinked at Wanchun, and asked her with hope: "Sister, my parents are just asleep, right?" ”
Wanchun's eyes were slightly red, and he slowly touched his forehead and said, "Well, I'm asleep, they are so tired to protect you that they have to sleep for a long, long time." ”
"How long is it?"
"You'll know when you're older." Wan Chun gently wiped the mud off his face and was silent for a moment before he said, "What's your name?" ”
The child said in a milky voice: "My name is Xiaozhi." ”
"Xiao Zhi, is it?" Wan Chun rubbed his head, got up and picked him up, "Sister, will you take you back to wash and eat something first?" There was nothing to eat for two or three days, and she could hardly imagine how such a young child had survived until now, and her heart was bitter.
Xiao Zhi is also well-behaved, Wanchun picked him up, and he reached out and obediently hugged her neck. One big and one small, two figures, stretched very long by the afterglow of the setting sun.
Zhang Jingtong inspected from the front, turned his head and saw Wanchun holding a slender waist, holding a child with difficulty, striding over, and reaching out to take Xiaozhi from Wanchun's hand.
Wan Chun subconsciously flashed, and when he saw that it was him, he didn't let go, but unexpectedly, Xiao Zhi in his arms was startled by this, and looked at him in a military uniform, like the officers and soldiers who slaughtered their village that day, and immediately screamed in fright. As soon as he made a fuss, Wanchun couldn't hold him anymore, and when he was softly coaxing, Zhang Jingtong watched the child kicking on all fours in her arms, and was afraid that Wanchun would hurt him, so he wanted to hug Xiaozhi over.
Xiao Zhi couldn't dodge, he was too frightened, and Leng Buding pulled his arm, opened his mouth and bit down. The child's teeth were sharp, and there was no sense of force, Zhang Jingtong only felt that the arm seemed to have been stung by a wasp, and he couldn't help but let go of his hand in pain, Wan Chun looked down, but saw a striking tooth mark on his arm, and Yin Yin was bleeding out.
She was immediately startled, and hurriedly patted Xiao Zhi's back and said, "This uncle is a good person, Xiao Zhi can't bite his uncle." Then he put him down, pulled Zhang Jingtong's arm and said, "The wound has seen blood, if you don't clean it, I'm afraid of the danger of infection, it just so happens that I have a ready-made medicine here, you wait, I'll bring it to you and put it on you." ”
After that, the person flashed into the tent to get medicine for him, Zhang Jingtong covered the tooth mark with one hand, the initial pain had passed, if it was in the past, he naturally didn't have to pay attention to such a small injury. But now seeing Wanchun so concerned, his heart trembled and became excited, and he stood outside the camp in a daze. After a while, Wan Chun really took out white gauze and a bottle of ointment, applied some medicine for him, wrapped it in gauze and said: "Pay attention not to get water on the arm injury in the past two days, although the wound is not deep, you still need to change the medicine again." This is an ointment, take it, and change it again tomorrow and now. ”
"Oh, good." Zhang Jingtong hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the ointment, and touched the wound, the white gauze was gently covered there, soft as if the fingertips of a beauty were brushing. He clenched the medicine bottle, looked at Xiao Zhi, and continued, "This kid is a local?" Are your parents still there? ”
Wan Chun shook her head.
Zhang Jingtong sighed, since the outbreak of the war, there have been many people who have lost their loved ones on various battlefields, even such a young child cannot be an exception. Seeing that Wanchun was going to have the idea of taking care of Xiaozhi, considering that she was a girl's family, with a six- or seven-year-old boy, there would always be a lot of inconvenience, so he made his own decision and said to Wanchun: "In this case, let him be taken care of by me, and not far away, I see that there are several families with lights on, presumably the people who survived." He is a local, let's take him, it is not good to ensure his safety during the march, it is better to put him in the hometown in two days to raise, if the economy is not good, I still have some money on me, I can give it all, enough to ensure that food and clothing are worry-free. ”
This is an idea of last resort, Wan Chun thought about it carefully, and agreed to his idea, half-squatted down, stroked Xiao Zhi's face, pointed at Zhang Jingtong and said to him: "This is our Zhang Shaoshuai, who is here to help you fight devils, not a bad person." You remember the way he looks, and you will live with Zhang Shaoshuai for the past two days, okay? ”
Xiao Zhi looked into her eyes and was silent.
Zhang Jingtong smiled slightly, also half-squatted down, reached out and held his little hand and said, "Just call me Uncle Zhang, your name is Xiaozhi, right?" Don't be afraid, the bad guys have been beaten away, and everyone will dare to bully you in the future, do you see those people on horseback outside? They're all here to protect you. His palms were thick and powerful, warming Xiao Zhi's cold fingers and his panicked heart. Xiao Zhi glanced at Zhang Jingtong and then at Wan Chun, and only nodded cautiously in the gentle gaze of the two of them for a long time.
Zhang Jingtong exhaled, he had no experience in coaxing children, and it was rare to succeed once, so he reached out and lifted Xiao Zhi up, straddled his neck, and said with a smile: "Let's go, uncle will take you to ride a big horse." ”
Wan Chun didn't expect him to make such a move, and was startled, and hurriedly told him carefully: "Be careful, don't fall on the child again." ”
Zhang Jingtong looked back and smiled, seeing her standing in the tent, white clothes like snow, her face like jade, as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, and for a while she had the illusion that this was a dream.
Once, only in a dream would Wanchun be so gentle with him. (To be continued.) )
