Chapter 9: Thunder and Lightning Later
Seeing the wind that came to save her, Lingling immediately ran up, and was about to look for a hug, "Wind, wind, Lingling was touched by a disgusting guy, you hug your little Ling'er." ”
Feng Zhen can only support his forehead, although this year, he has been used to it, a little girl's words are amazing, but in front of people, she will still blush a little. It seems that his education and reform plan has to continue, this is a later story, and it is better to bring back this little girl who can scare people to death first.
The four-year-old girl Wa Ling, seeing that the wind did not come to hug her, she consciously walked on her little short legs, ran to his side, and stretched out her hands.
Feng had to pick her up and let her lean in his arms, he was helpless and liked the child Ling, as long as the baby's hands were not touched.
The nine-year-old child hugged the four-year-old girl and left without looking at the people on the ground. What no one expected was that the six-year-old girl who was sold suddenly knelt down in front of them and wanted to follow them.
At first, the wind disagreed, but Keling liked it! The wind had no choice but to take the little girl back.
The beggar man, the master of Ling's father Feng, saw the rain, so he directly accepted this new apprentice, without the slightest reluctance. It's just that the so-called master and apprentice between them have no apprenticeship ceremony at all, and they are just called at random.
The six-year-old girl's mother died early, and her father married her stepmother and gave birth to a younger brother, she was superfluous, and she was ruthlessly sold by the family. She didn't want to call her previous name anymore, so the third little friend Yu appeared.
The more rain comes, the more joy of the spirit. At first, the rain was a little restrained, but under the influence of Ling's never-ending temperament, the rain quickly assimilated. In the end, they are still children, and how complicated can they be, the two will soon go in and out together, and get into trouble together.
It's just that poor Feng, now I'm going to the hearts of the two children.
The beggar man continued to beg with his three children as usual, running all the way. They didn't stay in one place for a long time, but they walked through towns and villages.
Half a year has passed in a flash, and there is still a month to celebrate the New Year. In the sky, there was a slight heavy snowfall, and the ground did not have time to accumulate snow, so it turned clean, and this year's winter was fortunately not too cold.
But for a man who wore only thin beggar's patch clothes, the three children were cold. When winter came, the forest was long deserted of flora and fauna, and with the little food they had begged for in the previous town, they held on to the nearest town.
Walking from north to south, the heavy snow along the way became less and less, and there was no trace, and gradually there was no white. However, the scenery on both sides is becoming more and more desolate, and there is a trace of strangeness in the beggar man's heart.
The town in front of me was eerily quiet, and the closer you go, the more uneasy it became, and the gates were sealed with chains and iron fences, so that the people inside were not allowed to come out.
The beggar man frowned, he thought for a moment and looked at the wind, "Wind, you are optimistic about Ling'er and Yu'er." Then he looked at the two little girls, "Listen to the wind obediently, don't run around." ”
"Hmm." Feeling strange, especially in this weird and terrible atmosphere, the two girls, frightened, obediently hid behind the wind.
"What is Master going to do?" The wind still opened his mouth uneasily.
"I'll go to the town to see the situation, you stay, protect Ling'er and Yu'er." The beggar man did not look back, but looked in the direction of the town. By feeling, if he guessed correctly, the town in front of him was already a dead city.
"Master, don't worry, I'll take care of both of them."
"Hmm."
The beggar man who was walking towards the town was stopped by a dirty child who suddenly ran out before he could use the light exercises.
"Kid, are you?" The beggar man was very strange to the child in front of him, and he looked like he was about as strong as the wind.
"Plague, don't go in."
The boy opened his mouth, and his words were really shocking. In ancient times, the emergence of plague was a matter of human life, which can also explain why the city was locked down.
The beggar man couldn't help but sigh, if he really went to that town, he was afraid that there would be more than one bad luck. He doesn't care about life and death, but he still has something he has to do, and he definitely has to live until he takes revenge.
Looking at the boy in front of him carefully, the beggar man said, "Child, why are you here?" ”
"I live here."
"You're alone? What about family? ”
"Dead in the city."
"You're from the city, too."
"Before the lockdown, I escaped."
"You're the only one who escaped." The beggar man said, taking a step back. This kid came out of Plague City! Until he takes revenge, he can't be okay and must live.
"Hmm."
"Then you live alone."
"Yes, I've been here alone for more than half a year."
The boy deliberately emphasized that he was telling them that he was not infected with the plague and that he was safe.
The conversation between the two was not soft, not to mention that it was so close to the wind and their three children, everyone could hear it. But as soon as the boy finished speaking, the beggar man immediately stayed away from him and wanted to leave with the three children.
Seeing that this was the case again, the boy lowered his eyes, yes! As soon as they heard that he was from the city, no one wanted to stay with him longer.
He is also a child of an ordinary family, his family is not rich, but he can still eat and drink, and he has parents and sisters who love him and spoil him. But I didn't want that a year ago, someone in this town would be infected with the plague.
The plague was so fierce that it killed half the townspeople in less than three months. The imperial court sent an army of healers down, but nothing improved. Later, in order to prevent the plague from spreading, the imperial court simply abandoned them, sealed the city, and left them to fend for themselves.
Those days were simply purgatory on earth, and the boy had seen enough of the selfish distortion of human nature.
Burning, looting, and looting for their lives were trivial matters, and when there was no food, people even began to attack their relatives and friends. What's more, knowing that they can't survive anyway, they simply become even more traitors. The bottom line of being a human being has long been gone, and it is even more fleshless than those animals and animals.
The boy's sister became food, and his mother was bullied to save her sister and contracted the plague. His father completely ignored their mother and fled the house. The weak and helpless boy can only watch his sister die tragically, and when his mother is finally confused, he must escape from the city.
Since the death of his mother, the young boy has no father, and he hides in Tibet every day, thinking about how to escape this hell.
Fortunately, the state sent someone to open the city again to see the situation, and the boy has been preparing to escape, so he escaped from the city gate.
It was also on that day that the imperial court determined that the town was hopeless, sent troops, and really blockaded the town. A large number of rockets were fired into the city, burning down this already sinful and pitiful hell.
The boy hid in the bushes not far from the town, listening to the heart-rending ghosts in the city crying wolf, the last wails before the death of one by one. There was also his biological father in it, but he couldn't hear it for a long time, and he couldn't hear it.
Until the last sound died down, the army withdrew, and there was no more people. The lonely boy can still feel the gloom in the city, and he dreams back at midnight, as if he is in this hell.
The coming of spring did not take away the misery of the boy, what will happen to a child who escaped from the plague city, who will take him in? Seeing too much of the dark side of human nature, the boy is even more reluctant to lie.
Thanks to the advent of spring, the boy did not starve to death, and the flowers, plants, fish, birds, insects and beasts in this forest. He has spent more or less half a year with him, and now that winter is coming, how will he get through?
Watching the beggar man leave with his three children, the boy didn't say a word, just looked at their backs. Yes, how could anyone accept him and be willing to live with him?
Yu suddenly took the hand of the beggar man on the side, stopped his steps, and prayed, "Master, shall we take him with us?" ”
"Yu'er, that kid might have a plague." The beggar man stopped and looked at the rain.
"Master, Yu'er also hoped that someone would save her, but fortunately she met everyone." Yu's heart couldn't be calm when she saw the loneliness in the boy's eyes, and also, like him, she had nothing.
"Daddy, just take him in! The more one person we have, the more lively we are, isn't it? When Ling heard the rain speak, he immediately helped.
"Master, it's been more than half a year since he left the plague place, and he will be fine." Compared with the more mature wind, it also opened its mouth.
The beggar man was still a little hesitant, so Yu ran back and hugged the boy. Children at a young age don't have as many complicated ideas as adults. They are more genuine, and they care more about what they really feel.
It was also the hug of the rain that entered the boy's lonely heart for a long time. This special warmth has made the boy pursue it all his life.
Seeing the rain running past, the spirit also ran over, and when she went, the wind followed. Looking at the children, the beggar man had to sigh helplessly, and the matter had come to this point, and the boy naturally stayed and became Thunder.
At that time, Ray would soon be nine years old, only a year younger than Wind.
Maybe it's because Lei is too young, he sees too much, he doesn't like to talk much, and his temperament is a little cold. However, under the care of the rain, I slowly began to integrate into everyone.
In fact, the child's natural spirit also wants to be close to the thunder, but the wind is still not at ease. He always consciously bullied the spirit and did not let the spirit touch the thunder until many days passed, and after making sure that the thunder had no problems, he really relaxed.
The last child was also in the month when he picked up the thunder. That year's New Year is also something that the children can't forget, not because of how good that year was, but because the children saw the real despair, helplessness, cruelty and blood.
Chinese New Year's Eve is only for those who can get by. For people who have nothing, are just dreaming about being fed and clothed, and can't live happily, what is the New Year? What else is there for the New Year?
Affected by the epidemic town, this small village closest to it, although no one has been infected with the plague, has lost the protection of the big town, and the circulation of eastern and western products has been cut off. The small village is really empty, and there will be famine sooner or later.
In this place where there are famines and no life, anything will happen in order to survive. It was also the desperation of winter, eating up all the animals and plants that could be seen, not even the bark of grass roots, and the villagers began to attack the children.
Electricity was just one of those children, and Electricity was only two years old that year, two years younger than Ling. Both of his parents died of famine, and he was lucky enough to meet them and survived.
