Chapter 168: Great Compassion
readx;
Howling, flesh and blood flying, a strong fishy smell penetrated into the nasal cavity, and when the slightly trembling eyelids opened a slit, the old man saw a scene that he would never forget. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The frail old man and child were squeezed to the ground by the crowd scurrying around, and before they could make a cry for help, they were trampled and spit blood, and their limbs were rotten into flesh, and while everyone was fleeing, their bodies seemed to be scattered, and the flesh fell off piece by piece, and the eyes were shrouded in red, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be stained red with blood.
"Hahaha......"
The shrill laughter was piercing, and the middle-aged man shuttled through the crowd like a ghost, he was like a god of death harvesting souls, and every time he passed, the people around him turned into skeletons.
"Xiaoman!!" The old man's voice trembled, almost muffling out the howls of the crowd.
The screaming laughter suddenly stopped, the middle-aged man turned his head to look at the old man, the old man couldn't help but tremble in his heart, the middle-aged man seemed to have walked out of the corpse mountain and blood sea, his face was no longer able to see the original appearance, the only thing he could see clearly was the hideous smile.
The old man, who had never seen a bloody scene in his life, suddenly felt a numb scalp, and his mind was spinning, and he fainted.
……
At noon, outside the grass house.
The corpses on the ground had been cleaned up, even the blood-soaked ground had been shoveled off, and the ground was sprinkled with flower seeds again, and the flower seeds had also used the water to give birth to colorful flowers, but the rich fragrance of flowers could not dispel the disgusting smell in the air.
In the grass house, the doors and windows are closed, even if it is noon, the room is still dark, in the dark, the old man covered in bandages is like a wax figure sitting on a chair, without saying a word, and the middle-aged man is kneeling in front of the old man, burying his head deep between his legs.
Daylight flows.
Sunset.
Twilight.
Night.
It was late at night, the house was not lit, the posture of the elderly and the middle-aged people had not changed, and the room was extremely quiet, as if it were an eternal photograph.
After a long time, the old man spoke, his voice was dry and hoarse, just listening to the sound knew how painful his heart was at the moment.
"I was wrong."
The middle-aged man slowly raised his head, his face still showing resentment: "What's wrong with the teacher?" What's wrong with me? ”
"I shouldn't have led you through the door." The old man's voice was long.
The middle-aged man glared angrily and said, "The teacher blames me for killing those gangsters?"
"Actually, I know very well that you haven't changed since you were eight years old, because I'm too self-righteous." The old man was disappointed.
"If I hadn't killed those gangsters, we would have died today, what was wrong with me?" The middle-aged man straightened up, and his voice suddenly raised: "What's wrong with me?!"
The old man slapped the table and scolded: "Today, you and I died, but it was just two lives, but now, hundreds of lives have died in your hands, are you not wrong?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, shook his head incomprehensibly, and said, "Teacher, you are so pedantic."
"That's it." The old man sat back on the table and said, "You and I are destined to not be masters and apprentices for a lifetime, so let's go."
The middle-aged man was shocked, showed an incredible gaze, and said, "You drove me away?" You're going to chase me away?! ”
The old man closed his eyes, nodded, and said, "You go, I don't want to see you again."
The middle-aged man jumped up from the ground and said angrily, "Are you really driving me?"
The old man didn't even want to speak, just waved his hand and said sharply, "Get out!"
"Good! Good! Good! The middle-aged man said three good words in a row, hurried to the door in two steps, and suddenly stopped again, he turned his head, his lips moved, and the words did not come out of his mouth after all, he turned his head back again, and anger burned in his eyes.
"Die!!"
With an angry palm, the wooden door flew out several meters.
In the dark night without starlight, the middle-aged man had been gone for a long time, and the old man was still sitting on the chair and did not move a step.
After a long time, he got up tremblingly, and it had taken his whole life to walk to the door of the grass house, at this time, the middle-aged man had long since disappeared, the flowers were still blooming, and the fish in the tank were still swimming happily, but the people who raised flowers and fish would never come back, and the moment the old man turned around, his eyes were filled with tears.
……
"Ho Ho ......"
Man Qing lay on his back on the ground, his heart was already crumpled into a ball, he inhaled desperately, but the air seemed to freeze, and he couldn't breathe it into his lungs at all, his face began to turn purple, and his eyes gradually dimmed.
……
Winter.
Early morning.
The hot buns have just come out of the cage, and the little beggar who hasn't eaten for three days can't take care of the hot stuffing, and is crazily stuffing the hot buns in the drawer into his mouth.
Is it that if you eat more, you won't be hungry so quickly?
The little beggar naturally can't be clean, and he wears tattered grass and rags in the winter, no one is not afraid of the cold, so his face and hands are full of chilblains, and the owner of the bun shop has been banging on the noodle table, and a little beggar who eats ugly looks sitting on the table will naturally affect business, and the young man who can be at the same table with the little beggar is out of five taels of silver, how to catch it?
The owner of the bun shop smiled at the passers-by, and prayed that the little beggar would eat and wipe it off quickly, and that he would clean the place where he had sat when he turned back......
"What about your parents?"
"Starving." His mouth was stuffed with buns, and the little beggar replied vaguely.
The young man laughed and said, "You eat slowly, no one will rob you."
The little beggar swallowed the food in his mouth, and his body was very small, so it was amazing how such a small throat could swallow so much food.
The little beggar breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You boys have a very strange temper, give me food now, maybe you will drive me away later, I better eat more."
After saying that, he stuffed the hot bag into his mouth again.
"I won't rush you, you eat slowly, drink some bean juice, don't choke." The young man looked at the little beggar intently, as if he was very interested in him.
The little beggar swallowed the full bun stuffed in his mouth again, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "You boys, you know that you have never been hungry at a glance."
The young man was happy and said, "What?"
The little beggar knocked on the porcelain bowl and said, "After drinking the bean juice, how can you eat something?" This thing fills up quickly, and hungry quickly. ”
The young man laughed again and said, "How do you know that I have not been hungry?"
The little beggar rolled his eyes and ignored him, a strange person who casually took five taels of silver and asked the beggar to eat steamed buns, would not be able to eat?
"Why don't you follow me? There will be no hunger in the future. ”
Burst......
Saliva mixed with the bun skin and bun filling all sprayed on the young man's face, and the little beggar stared at him in surprise and said, "You are playing with me, right?"
The young man smiled bitterly and took out a handkerchief to wipe the dirt off his face, smiled compassionately, and said, "If you spray me again, I will change my mind."
The little beggar laughed, drank the bean juice dry, slammed it on the table, and then looked at the young man.
The young man looked at the bottom of the empty bowl and said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that you will be hungry soon?"
The little beggar shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid."
The young man wondered, "How did it change so fast?"
"Because of you."
The young man and the little beggar looked at each other and smiled.
