He didn't have a bag. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
I don't know the direction in the dark. He touched his chest, and the book of "Zengguang Xianji" was still there. He intuitively walked to the south where possible.
At daybreak, he found himself on the edge of a large river. He was sleepy, so he found a place to sleep in the sun.
When I woke up, I saw a team of slender men pulling a large boat and crawling forward. The slender man's singing voice made him feel uplifted and good.
He went to ask the leader, how to go in Yunnan?
The leader said, "After crossing the river and further south, it is still far away. ”
The pillar is not afraid of far. He helped the slender men pull the fiber, and mixed it up for dinner. In a place where the current was a little slower, he swam across the river.
He went all the way.
Not having money is not a problem for him.
He is not afraid of not having food, there are birds flying in the sky, rabbits running on the ground, and fish swimming in the river.
He is not afraid of what he is not wearing, and he can tie some straw rope if his clothes are torn. If the pants are torn, you can repair them with clothes. Shoes are easier, you can use straw. If you're lucky, you can pick them up.
Without a father and a partner, loneliness becomes a test. The pillar thought he could be strong.
But the sight on the road made the pillar can't help but be terrified.
Pillars aren't the only wanderers. Along the way, he saw many people in rags like him, walking alone on the road, their eyes revealing indifference and despair.
Bashu has not been peaceful recently, there are often warlords fighting each other, and there are many people who flee.
Pillar meets a boy about his age.
The boy staggered ahead, stumbling as if he was about to fall. He wanted to talk to him and ask him what was wrong, but he saw that the boy's eyes were full of suspicion.
The boy fell, and the pillar grabbed to help him, and he broke free from the pillar with all his might, and looked at him again in horror.
The pillar didn't know what to say, he could only watch the boy move on.
Soon after, the boy fell to the ground, never to move again.
The pillar stepped forward and felt his pulse.
Without a pulse, the boy was dead. When he died, his eyes were open.
People passing by only shook their heads.
On the road, there are a lot of such corpses and pillars. No one buried, and no one bothered.
He saw many people asking for food, both adults and children, skinny, poorly clothed, and with no hope in their eyes.
The autumn wind is already a little cooler, and the expressions on people's faces are even cooler.
Since going to Ma's house, Zhu Zi has not seen such a scene for a long time.
The sadness of loneliness and the fear of loneliness filled the pillar's heart and made him unbearable.
The more lonely he was, the more desolate he felt. The more lonely he became, the more he longed for his loved ones. Father, mother, and young lady, master, and young master. He will also think of his brother and sister. Sometimes, he really wants to turn around, whether he goes to his senior brother or sister, or to the lord or the young lady, he just wants to have a place to live, as long as there is a warm place.
At this time, he would think of the picture of himself peeping on the roof, and the devil in his heart. Then he will think of his father's death, of his own sins, of the people he has killed, and of the people he will kill.
When the blood boiled, he felt that he had a firm direction again.
Tribulation sometimes makes people strong, and tribulation sometimes makes people down.
The pillar desperately tells himself that you must choose to be strong, because the soul of your father is watching you from heaven.
He slapped himself hard with his hand and told himself: "Be strong, don't be afraid, you can do it, you can do it!" ”
He occasionally thought of Qiu He: "That little girl should have gone home." That day, I heard her say that she had seen a relative. Qi Laosan said that many soldiers rescued her, is she a child of the official family? Why did she lie to me? ”
Lee sat next to his wife and listened to her complaints. Wohu Mountain dispatched all the people who could be dispatched, and searched for dozens of miles in a radius, but they couldn't find the little junior brother, so angry that his wife cried and scolded every day. Li Conghai and Liu Feng were both severely beaten by their wives. Liu Feng is his wife's eldest apprentice, and he is usually very favored and has never been beaten. This time, I just broke the whip.
"But she deserves it, let her take care of Uncle Xiao, she dared to run out of the room with Li Conghai to play without permission. The little junior brother is gone, and both of them should be beaten. Li Shilong thought hatefully.
"It's your fault, if you hadn't called me out, I would have guarded it, and I wouldn't have disappeared my little junior brother."
When Li Shilong heard his wife's scolding, he said: "I don't feel sorry for you and want you to rest for a while." ”
"What do you want to do, now that something has happened, what do you say? Do you know that he didn't get a penny on him, if something happened to him, how could he be worthy of the master? ”
"Who thought he would run?"
"It's all your fault, if you hadn't had to go up the mountain back then, we wouldn't have left the master, and the master wouldn't have been killed. My poor pillar......" Cha Shifeng cried again.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault, I'm damned, don't cry, okay!"
Over the years, whenever the past was mentioned, the junior sister would cry, blaming Li Shilong for not turning his back on his master and going up the mountain. In fact, Li Shilong is also very guilty, it was for the sake of the child, and he knew that the child would not be able to keep it, and he would not go up the mountain if he was killed.
"You're still loud, I'll tell you, if anything happens to the pillar, you don't have to think about it."
"You woman is like this, you don't spare anyone. I don't feel good either. ”
In front of his apprentices, his wife didn't save face for herself, which made Li Shilong a little anxious. But he didn't want to be angry with his wife, so he could only pace back and forth in patience and depression.
