"Chrissy, you wait for me here."

Lu Xiaoshan looked at the smoking ruins and said to Chrissy. He walked towards the ruined house.

This house covers an area of more than 100 square meters, which is a relatively large house, and it looks like it should be a three-story villa. A considerable part of the material of the house should be wood, otherwise a fire would not burn like this. About half of the cement reinforcement structure also collapsed. became a veritable ruin.

There is still a heat wave rolling in the ruins, and ordinary people can't stand it when they get closer, but Lu Xiaoshan doesn't seem to be affected by those heat waves, I saw him jump, jumped on a wall of about two meters, and then jumped to another better position again, and after a few back and forth, he jumped to the highest position, which can be regarded as the third floor.

He stood on the third floor, looking down and around, as if looking for something.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he jumped down from a high place to the first floor.

From the third floor to the first floor, it was more than ten meters high, and Lu Xiaoshan jumped down like a person who was fine, if this scene was seen by others, he would definitely be so surprised that his jaw fell to the ground. How can a person jump so high?

Of course, the others did not include Chrissy, who did not wonder why her little brother had jumped from the third floor without any problems, but wondered what he was doing in such a hot place.

Lu Xiaoshan didn't stay in it for long, and came out after seeing a few places.

Although the temperature inside didn't burn him, it also made him gray and drenched in sweat.

"Brother Xiaoshan, what are you doing in there?" Chrissy asked, puzzled.

"I'll go in and find your mom and dad and sister." Lu Xiaoshan said with a smile.

"Did you find them, then?" Chrissy stared at him with big eyes.

"Well, I found them, this fire just happened to cremate them, and their souls are estimated to have reached heaven." Lu Xiaoshan ignored the ash on his face and said with a smile.

He found four burned corpses inside, and he naturally couldn't recognize who was who, but it was certain that there were four corpses, which should be Chrissy's relatives. Since they were all burned to ashes, nothing was left, so it was impossible to take them out for burial.

"Brother Xiaoshan, are you telling the truth? Did Daddy and They've all gone to heaven? ”

"yes, maybe they're watching you up there right now! So, don't cry, or they'll be upset. ”

"That's great." Chrissy raised her eyebrows, folded her hands on her chest, closed her eyes and prayed silently.

It took a while to open my eyes, and the sad expression was not as strong as before. "Hmph, I won't cry my nose, Brother Xiaoshan, you are talking nonsense."

Lu Xiaoshan is also happy to see her like this, she will not be overly immersed in the grief of losing her loved ones, and the rest can only be diluted by time.

"Chrissy, now that you can't live here, do you have any other relatives? I'll take you to them now. ”

Since he was about to return to his own country, he wanted to settle Chrissy and at least send her to her other relatives, otherwise it would be bad for a little girl to have no one to help her in any situation.

Unexpectedly, the girl's eyes darkened, and her little head shook.

"Don't you have any other relatives? Uncles and aunts, or grandparents, etc. Lu Xiaoshan continued, thinking that Chrissy did not understand what he meant.

"Nope." Chrissy whispered, paused and continued, "Since I was sensible, my relatives have only been my parents, my parents and two sisters, I have no uncles and aunts, and I have not seen my grandparents. ”

"Doesn't that mean you don't have any relatives?" Lu Xiaoshan frowned.

Chrissy shook her head.

"Is there anyone you can turn to?"

Chrissy shook her head again.

"Chrissy will be an orphan from now on." She muttered under her breath.

Whew~ When Chrissy said the hard words, Lu Xiaoshan exhaled, and his heart shook inexplicably, because he was also an orphan.

A few months ago, he was a complete orphan.

He found that Chrissy was now in the same situation as himself, an orphan, which resonated with him somewhat, and the string in his heart vibrated softly, making him unable to calm down.

The same is the end of the world, why should we have met before?

He suddenly remembered the poem.

He touched Chrissy's little head with some pity. "Then I'll take you to the best welfare home in the city."

"No, I'm not going to the welfare home." Chrissy suddenly screamed.

"If you don't go to the welfare home......" Lu Xiaoshan was a little embarrassed.

"Brother Xiaoshan, take me away, I want to be with you." Chrissy said to him with hopeful eyes in her eyes.

"Come with me?" Lu Xiaoshan was stunned for a moment.

"Ah~ Brother Xiaoshan doesn't want to, don't you hate Chris?" Seeing that he didn't answer, Chrissy said with teary eyes. Then he cried, "Woo~ It must be that Brother Xiaoshan hates Chrissy and thinks Chrissy is too troublesome, so he doesn't want to bring Chrissy." ”

"No, how could I hate Chrissy? I like you're too late. Lu Xiaoshan didn't expect Chrissy to be so excited, so he hurriedly comforted her.

"Then why don't you want Chrissy to be with you?" Chrissy was clearly unconvinced.

"It's not like that, I don't hate Chriss, and I'd love to be with Chriss, just for some reason."

"What is the reason?"

"My home is not here, my home is in the far east, a place called China. And I'm going to hike back to China right now. Lu Xiaoshan explained.

"I don't care, I'll go wherever you go, it doesn't matter where you go, it doesn't matter what." Chrissy said with tears in her voice.

"My family is very poor, my family is in a small mountain village, I have been farming for generations, and I don't have much money. But if you go to a welfare home, there will be people there who will take care of you, who will buy you a lot of toys, and there will be a lot of friends there. Lu Xiaoshan said again, the social welfare here is very good, if Chrissy can go to the welfare home, it will definitely be better than following herself, because now he is a poor boy in the countryside, he has no money at all, and now he can be said to be penniless, and he can't even support himself.

"Chrissy doesn't want any toys, no friends, don't go to the welfare home, Chrissy is only with Brother Xiaoshan, Chrissy has a very small belly, she doesn't eat much, it's easy to raise, so Brother Xiaoshan, you take me away." Chrissy's eyes were full of hope, and her big blue eyes stared straight at Lu Xiaoshan.

Lu Xiaoshan fell silent, Chrissy said this, what else could he say, besides, he also liked Chriss, plus the two of them were orphans, if she went home with her, maybe she would have a family. Two lonely and helpless people support each other and depend on each other for their lives.

"Okay, Chrissy, I'll take you home, and we'll be together for our lives in the future." Lu Xiaoshan said.

"Thank you, Brother Xiaoshan." Hearing that Lu Xiaoshan was willing to take her home, Chrissy jumped up excitedly, and then quickly spat Lu Xiaoshan's face, the little guy was obviously very excited.

Lu Xiaoshan is also very happy, from now on, he will have one more sister and one more family.

"Then you have to be prepared to endure hardships, because we have to walk back to China on foot, but it's a long way off."

"I'm not afraid of hardship, as long as I follow Brother Xiaoshan, I'm not afraid of how far I go." Chrissy said.

It seems that after being saved by herself, her dependence on me has become very deep, Lu Xiaoshan thought secretly in his heart.

"Alright, let's go now." Lu Xiaoshan stood up, looked at the moon in the sky, and identified the direction.

"Hmm." Chrissy hurriedly took his hand.

"Finally, your parents, mom and sister say goodbye, we probably won't be back in the future." Holding Chriss's hand and looking at the ruined house, Lu Xiaoshan said to Chrissy.

Chrissy waved her hand inside, a little reluctant in her eyes, after all, this was the burial place of her parents, mother and sister.

"Brother Xiaoshan, did you see an iron box on the second floor when you entered it just now?" Chrissy seemed to hear something, and suddenly said to Lu Xiaoshan.

"Huh? It's like seeing a half-meter-high iron box, is there something very important in it? Lu Xiaoshan said without thinking.

"Can you go and take it out?"

"Yes."

Lu Xiaoshan immediately went in, and quickly found the iron box according to his previous memory. It was a breeze to take it out.

"Brother Xiaoshan, can you open him?" Chrissy asked again as she looked at the blackened iron box in front of her.

"Okay." Lu Xiaoshan used all his strength and punched the door of the iron box.

With a bang, the door flew out. "Is there anything important in there? But it all seems to have turned to ashes. Looking at the pile of ashes inside, Lu Xiaoshan asked.

"I'll look for it." Chrissy crouched down and fumbled with her hands inside. "Ha, I found it, fortunately it wasn't bad." With Chrissy's excited voice, she fumbled for a small tin box.

Open the small tin box, and there is a black card inside.

"Brother Xiaoshan, you take it." Chrissy handed the black card to Lu Xiaoshan.

"Okay." Lu Xiaoshan didn't look at what it was, and put it directly in his pocket.

"Let's go." Chrissy took the lead in Lu Xiaoshan's hand.

Lu Xiaoshan nodded.

In this way, under the moonlight, two figures, one tall and one short, set off hand in hand towards the place where the sun rose.

This year, Chrissy was 10 years old and Lu Xiaoshan was 15 years old.
