The house is surrounded by four walls, this is the most intuitive feeling when Zhang Liu stepped into this home "again".

It's already the second half of the night, it's very dark, and it's not a short time before dawn, Zhang Liu, who hasn't eaten a drop of water and rice for a day and a night, is hungry, but after rummaging through the entire kitchen, he only found half a bag of cornmeal in an old wooden cabinet, staring at the huge stove, the big iron pot that needs to be lit by firewood, Zhang Liu is in trouble.

pinched a law and tried to make a fire, but the result was not to mention Mars, not even a little smoke, and sniffed the air gently, this Qianzhou mountain pimple is definitely a place of green mountains and green waters, the aura is so thin that it is outrageous, not to mention, the surrounding environment is still filled with a filthy gas, saving this body that has been cut off from life has exhausted what little cultivation he has left, and according to this world, no, to be precise, it should be the world in which Liu Lingshi lives, the true hometown of his soul, Cheng Dù, where the aura is thin, If you want to regain your past cultivation realm, I'm afraid it's impossible.

Just thinking like this, a slight noise made Zhang Liu turn around.

In the dark sky, a few rays of moonlight seeped in from the open door, shining on the female doll who crawled out of the bedroom, Zhang Liu's eldest sister had a pair of apricot eyes like Zhang's mother, big, looking at Zhang Liu, full of fear and panic, pinching her fingers, and said, "Brother, are you going to leave too?" ”

Zhang Liu looked down at the female doll's line of sight, and saw the female doll's gaze fall on the only half bag of cornmeal left in the house in his hand, and for a moment, Zhang Liu understood something - the eldest sister thought that he was going to take away the last bit of food left in the house and run away.

The intense emotions in the chest, the intense pain was churning and shouting, and it was the residual emotion that belonged to the real Zhang Liu, which was triggered and impacted at this moment.

Zhang Liu is not a good boy, but he can be regarded as a good brother, he loves his sister very much, many times, when the cowardly mother can only curl up and be beaten, Zhang Liu uses his thin body to block his sister in front of him, resisting his father's fists.

He closed his eyes slightly, quietly waiting for the remnants of the violent love that belonged to the young man to calm down, and then Zhang Liu opened his eyes, looked at the female doll who was pinching his fingers and looking at him with panic, and said, "Brother is not leaving, brother is just hungry." ”

When the panicked girl heard this, she seemed to calm down slightly, and then walked up a few steps, took the half bag of cornmeal, skillfully lit the stove with a primer, scooped a bowl of water with a scoop and poured it into the pot, and when the water boiled, she scooped the cornmeal and poured it into the water.

This series of actions made Zhang Liu very embarrassed.

Looking at the eldest sister sitting on the bench in front of the stove and serving the stove fire, Zhang Liu glanced at the Zhang family, where there were no adults on the four walls of the family, and thought: What should I do in the future?

If you have ever experienced the taste of being a "superman", few people will be willing to turn back into an ordinary person, and experience the taste of calling for wind and rain to fly away, and no one will get used to turning back into a problem teenager who hides in the mountains and can't eat enough.

To get the cultivation back, this is Zhang Liu's very firm idea at this time.

Rummaged through the whole house, Zhang Liu didn't find anything similar to a passbook, savings card or the like, the whole family added up to only two hundred and forty-three yuan of RMB, Zhang Liu took out three one-yuan coins from the change box that his mother hid, and threw them backhanded, until the coin fell to the ground, Zhang Liu silently measured the results of this divination with the skill of Kanyu handed down by Yimen.

Putting away the coin, Zhang Liu silently shook another hexagram, and calculated that if he couldn't stay, what would it be?

The hexagram is injured, difficult, and at the end of the road.

If you want to leave here, you can only survive if you leave this mountain, but what should the three younger sisters of Zhang Liu, who have no father and no mother, do?

"Brother, the face is cooked." Zhang Liu's eldest sister walked in with a bowl of thin cornmeal porridge, walked in front of him with the broken bowl, looked at him with big eyes, and had a piece of soot on her face, which was dirty.

Turning his head to look at the kang, Zhang Liu's second and third sisters, one was three years old and the other was one and a half years old, and the younger one was not enough to understand what the changes in the family meant, so they still slept very sweetly.

What should these three sisters do?

Follow yourself? "Zhang Liu", who no longer plans to use tricks, only plans to get his cultivation back in a down-to-earth way, doesn't know if the future road is good or not, and I don't know if it is a good choice for these three dolls to follow him.

The next day, from the drawer of the kang cabinet turned out the household registration book of the family, the names and dates of birth of the three sisters written on it, Zhang Liu used yesterday's divination coins to occupy a hexagram for the three sisters, all of which are safe and healthy hexagrams, this is commonly known as the mediocre hexagram in Yimen, not good or bad, because of evil is slightly evil but not to great evil, because of good, it is difficult for small good to become great good, in short, it is like most ordinary people in the world like birth, old age, sickness and death.

Zhang Liu thought about it, took the household registration book, and went out of the house wearing the sportswear that had been scratched a little tatters yesterday.

Over the mountains and mountains, after walking hundreds of miles of mountain roads, Zhang Liu walked to the county seat with a pair of feet, and shook off his sore ankles, if it was Zhang Liu's body before, even if he was young and walked such a long way, a pair of feet were afraid of grinding blisters, but now Zhang Liu's body is different, Xie Yong's rich aura, even if there is only a little left, it is enough to make Zhang Liu's body reborn, which is more superior than ordinary people's bodies.

With the household registration book in his pocket, Zhang Liu found the county children's welfare home, which was a long white-painted bungalow, surrounded by a railing outside, the gate was locked, and there was a red brick gatehouse next to the gate, on which a red and black tin cigarette pipe was smoking, Zhang Liu walked to the small red gatehouse, knocked on the window, and shouted: "Big brother!" Eldest brother! ”

The window of the gatehouse opened, and a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard poked his head out, looked at Xia Zhangliu, and said, "What are you doing?" ”

Zhang Liu said: "I want to see the dean, I have a child to send." ”

The middle-aged man with a stubble looked at Zhang Liu, and closed the door with a "bang", just as Zhang Liu frowned slightly, the man pushed the door out of the front door of the gatehouse, held a large string of keys in his hand, walked to the door, and said while opening the lock of the gate: "Send the child over?" Your children? You don't look big! Which girl's doll has a big belly? ”

Zhang Liu didn't reply, just watched the man open the door and let himself in, and then the man pointed to the white house in the courtyard and said, "The innermost is the dean's office, I'll lead you in." ”

Zhang Liu nodded and said, "Thank you, big brother." ”

The man walked in front, and his mouth was still nagging and saying, "Which child are you sending?" How old are you? What about your parents? ”

Zhang Liu didn't speak, the man was not angry, pushed open the second-floor door, walked into the white house, a peculiar smell came to his face, and then went inside, left and right are a piece of white cubicle room, there are several children in each room, different ages, a room in the bed side by side squeezed a dozen babies who look less than a year old, a few are obviously disabled, and one has abnormal white skin, and the rest are almost all baby girls, all of them are thin and not like words, crying and crying, The voice is small and like a kitten, and there is a room where a bunch of children under the age of ten are gathered together, holding tattered dishes and chopsticks, surrounding a big porcelain basin, the porcelain basin looks like boiled cabbage, a middle-aged aunt is using a big iron spoon to serve vegetables to the children, and the children's eyes are staring at the boiled cabbage lying on the ground, and they are smacking their lips......

Zhang Liu unconsciously held his breath, followed the porter into the innermost dean's room, the porter knocked on the door, and shouted, "Someone has sent a child!" Then he pushed the door and let Zhang Liu in.

In the dean's room, a man and a woman, the man was sitting behind the desk reading the newspaper, and the woman was holding a handful of melon seeds on the chair next to her, spitting and spitting the skin, and the room was full of melon seed skins.

The woman said while "clicking, clicking, clicking" melon seeds, "Who are you sending here?" What about children? Yanbi looked at Xia Zhangliu and said, "You? You can't. We don't accept you here. ”

Zhang Liu glanced at the man who was looking down at the newspaper when the woman spoke, and said, "It's not me, my sister." ”

At this time, the man who looked like the dean raised his head and said, "Your sister? What about the adults in your family? ”

Zhang Liu said: "Mom is dead, Dad is in prison." ”

The man who looked like the dean said "oh", put down the newspaper in his hand, and said, "Did you bring your documents?" ”

Zhang Liu walked to the chair in front of the dean's desk, took out the household registration book in his arms and handed it over, the dean took the household registration book, frowned and looked at it, half a sound, threw the household registration book in front of Zhang Liu, and said, "No, isn't your father not dead?" We're only here to accept my parents who are dead. ”

When the dean said this, the woman in the room who was eating melon seeds was still "clicking, clicking" melon seeds.

Zhang Liu sat there, glanced at the dean, and then swept the woman with melon seeds, but did not speak.

Zhang Liu spoke, but the dean was impatient, picked up the newspaper again with one hand, waved his hand with the other, and said, "Okay, I said, we don't accept it here if my parents are not dead." ”

Zhang Liu took the household registration book, stood up, turned around and went out, before closing the door, Zhang Liu heard the dean behind him slapping the table and scolding: "You don't have long eyes!?" Why do you put everyone in it!? ”

Zhang Liu guessed that these words should have been scolded at the porter who brought him in.

Out of the welfare home, out of the gate, looking back at the white house, Zhang Liu thought, he would not send the three female dolls here, this is not the place where good children should stay, the grandfather surnamed Zhang who had stayed with him when he was a child has been dead for many years, and there is no reliable person in the village to entrust, so now, he is going to take these dolls, but with these female dolls, how can it be convenient for him to do things?

sighed, forget it, go home first, take one step at a time.
