Qin Forget looked at his home blankly, if it was still home.

Because of the snow, the fire did not completely burn through the houses, and the collapsed roofs, jet-black twisting wooden beams, and curling green smoke were still billowing. The walls around the room had not collapsed because they were made of stone, but had been painted black and linen from the fire, and there were few pieces of furniture left in the room.

The cabinet that Qin Ji usually used to hold clothes had long been burned through, and the clothes she turned out earlier had been burned into a pile of ashes, and the smell of ashes and barbecued meat was exuding in the air, which made people want to vomit.

"Forget my brother, I want to open some! Everyone was dizzy with hunger, and no one knew when the fire was burning, otherwise they would have been saved. Although your mother doesn't talk much, her neighbors for so many years have helped everyone, and now 。。。。。 Alas! The embroidery aunt next door walked up to Qin Wang, who was stunned, and said softly, judging from her usual pungent appearance.

Qin Forget looked at the dilapidated home as if he hadn't heard it, he couldn't believe his eyes at all, and his stunned gaze made several old and weak people around him worry and fear.

"Forget my brother, don't be like this, okay? You cheer up. You still have us, auntie。。。。。。 It was Aunt Xiu's daughter, Qin Qing, who spoke. The little girl wanted to persuade Qin Wang, but when she thought of Qin Ji's family, she cried first.

Qin young man Fang Cardamom, petite figure, a girl in the mountain village, without powder, her skin is slightly darker. The oval duck egg face, the small mouth, and the white teeth are arranged like shells, but there is a front tooth that stands crookedly and looks particularly naughty and cute when he laughs.

It's not very unusual, it's the eyes that are surprising. The big, jet-black and shiny pupils are like black pearls, and I don't know how many teenagers have been drunk just by those eyes. They seem to have a magical power that attracts all eyes, making it impossible to take their eyes off at one glance. Coupled with the double eyelids with an unusually obvious curvature, and the thin, long, curved eyebrows, she is really a girl who is as sweet as sugar to look at.

Unlike her mother's fiery temper, this is a gentle and understanding girl. The temper is more like her father, who has never blushed with others in her life and looks a little wretched. Her mother got angry and always scolded her and her father for being a wreck, and they deserved to be bullied for the rest of their lives.

Seeing this, some of the others comforted Qin Wang, and some hid aside and quietly wiped their tears. This winter, such a tragedy has been staged more than once in the small Qinjia Village, but no one would have thought that the Qin Ji clan, who is usually beautiful and noble, and is not like the people in the village, would also embark on this road. Good people can't restrain their grief.

Qin Forget seemed to be completely deaf, and he couldn't even hear the words of his sister, who usually played the best. His father was gone, he didn't believe it, he risked his life to find out, but his whereabouts are still unknown. His mother is his only relative, but his mother is gone, and he has not left a word, and he can't accept the reality in front of him.

Mother, why don't you wait for your son, why don't you wait for your father? Mother!

"Forget the child, cough, cough 。。。。。" At this moment, Qin Laohuai slowly walked over.

He aged rapidly for more than a month after the young man in the village did not return. The spine, which turned out to be quite straight, was completely bent, and the person was thin and skinny, and his body was weak and had almost no strength, and he had to rely on crutches to walk.

Age spots climbed his old locust bark-like face at an alarming rate, and now his face looked like rotten old locust bark. The eyes are deep-set, and the eyebrow bones are abnormally prominent, and there is no essence in the eyes, but they are cloudy and abnormal, and even have a trace of death.

The strong men of the whole village were sent into Taihang Mountain by himself, and now none of them have returned, and the reasonable people can still maintain their sanity and not blame him too much. changed some vexatious people or spicy women, Qin Laohuai's life was not very easy. Aunt Xiu is a little spicy, she is still a very rational person, and she blocked the door of Qin Laohuai's house and scolded for half a morning, not to mention other people. In the past few months, he has been remorseful and angry, sad and hungry, and the old man quickly climbed up his forehead, and recently he simply fell ill.

"Cough, cough, forget my brother, the dead are gone, and the living have to live. You can't embarrass your father. Speaking of the word "shame", he paused his crutches and coughed a few times.

"Yo, the deceased? If you dare to love, you old guy should live, right? Our men and sons deserve to die, right? "The sharp voice and piercing tone of voice are like a curved steel wire bent into the human ear. Qin Shishi's daughter-in-law suddenly attacked the village chief Qin, her husband Qin Shishi, and son Qin Datie all went into the mountains to hunt and never came back. Aunt Shi has always been unreasonable in the village, so naturally she will not let Qin Laohuai go easily.

"That's, that's it, why are you alive and our men dead?" The aunt of the Duan family also took over angrily. Duan Liu and her lived and died for a lifetime, and in the end, the two of them didn't even leave a man and a woman, Duan Liu just left, no wonder she was not angry.

"You old thing, you have been the village chief all your life, when can you enter the mountain, when you can't enter the mountain, you don't know? It's so bad that our husband and son are gone, why don't you die! It's all you, it's all your old thing! Another woman scolded and cried, and in her excitement, her rough big hand grabbed Qin Laohuai's old face directly.

This can blow up the nest, for a while, scolding, crying husband, crying father, crying son, crying brother, scolding the sky, the sound is deafening. A group of women, the scene immediately said that it was out of control. Most of the women surrounded the old village chief and pointed insults and reprimands, and even the Qin Shishi family began to pull the old village chief's clothes.

And the old village chief, who didn't talk back or fight back, just closed his eyes and calmly let these women pull and insult. Just his anger and pain could be seen in his trembling hands.

"Don't fight, don't fight, my aunt begs you to let him go, right? He can't help it, he's the village head, he can't let the whole village starve to death, right? If you want to blame and hate, come to the old woman, he is a person who has entered the coffin with one leg, and he can't stand your tossing like this. Qin Laohuai's wife rushed into the crowd crying, firmly protecting Qin Laohuai with her thin body, and kept pleading with the women around her.

Looking at the village elders and wives who were crying bitterly and begging constantly, the women softened their hearts, and no longer tore at Qin Laohuai, but just covered their faces and cried bitterly.

At this moment, everyone seemed to have forgotten Qin Wang, forgetting the human tragedy that Qin Wang had just experienced, they all thought of the tragic situation in their own family, and they were all immersed in their infinite sadness.

Qin Forget too, the noise around him didn't seem to have anything to do with him, "Am I coming back late?" Is my mother desperate? Did my mother think that something had happened to me and she couldn't think about it? Guilt devoured his heart like a poisonous snake, and these words kept echoing in his mind, like a dead loop, so that he couldn't get out.

"A month ago, my father was full of anger and asked me to prepare for hunting, but I didn't come back as soon as I left, and even the entire forty-five living men in the entire Qinjia Village were not seen alive or dead. A month later, when I left, my mother was fine, and my home was fine, only a few days, my mother was gone, my home was gone, what happened? ”

He couldn't figure it out, he felt a fog above his head, making him unable to distinguish between east and west, north and south.

"Why is this happening? Why did Dad have no news for no reason? Why did my mother leave me like this? Why does a village that has no quarrel with the world have even a way to live? Why did I become a lonely person。。。。。。 Why! Why!! Why!!! Can anyone come and tell me why! ”

It was as if countless centipedes had entered his heart, rolling around in his chest, stirring up his chest and slicing it open. It hurts, it hurts so much that he feels like he can't breathe, he is like a fish jumping ashore, opening his mouth weakly, wanting to breathe, wanting to relieve the pain in his heart. He felt so helpless, so helpless that he felt terrified, and he wanted to scream, even if it allowed himself to burst in pain.

"Poof", Qin Forget didn't shout, but a mouthful of blood arrow shot out of his mouth like lightning, and the red blood stained the snow about three steps in front of him. The blood in the snow, the snow in the blood, red and white, so dazzling, so shocking.

Qin Forget looked at the bright red blood blankly, and his lowered eyes showed a desperate gray for the first time.

"Plop!" The weakened body that had not recovered from his serious injuries finally could not withstand the blow of the destruction of his family, and his eyes were dark, and he fainted on the ground.

"Shut up!" Aunt Xiu'er saw that Qin Forget suddenly vomited blood and fell down, so she hurriedly rushed over and hugged Qin Forget in her arms, and her distressed tears flowed down, "Hurry up and boil hot water, and then bring Brother Forget back and stew the bear's paw to replenish his body!" ”

Seeing this, all the women hurriedly stopped crying, and they didn't care about wiping their tears, they came over and hurriedly carried Qin Wang back to Aunt Xiu'er's house, and several women hurriedly went to boil hot water and boil bear paws.

Qin Laohuai looked at everyone with a complicated face, and sighed deeply, "Old woman, bring the old ginseng at home to Brother Wang'er, that thing is symptomatic to him." ”

"Old man, there is only one treasure at home, keep it for you to continue your life." The old lady looked reluctant, "Look at your current body, in case you use it one day." ”

It's not that the old lady is stingy, it's really that Qin Laohuai's health is also very bad now, and it is the time when he needs to make up for his body.

"What nonsense!" Qin Laohuai glared at the old lady, "How many days do I have to live?" Look at it, the whole village is old and young, and it will all depend on Brother Forget in the future. I see people never miss! ”

"Okay, okay, I'll go get it." Seeing that the old man was angry, the old lady didn't dare to say more, turned around and walked home.

No one knew that Qin Laohuai, who everyone hated, left the hope of being born to Qin Wang.
