Country R, as a seemingly powerful country, actually has many poor areas inside, and most of them have not received good assistance, mainly because of transportation problems.

In some places, there are no roads, mountains are connected to mountains, people live in the mountains, and those children are not well studied, and the knowledge they can learn is extremely small.

In country R, in a certain mountain village, almost every family has five or six children to feed, and none of these children have a pair of shoes intact, and some even have no shoes to wear, walking barefoot on these dirt roads.

"Ah Bai, hurry up, I won't be able to listen to the class if I'm late!" Two children who were running barefoot in the mountains, their skin was dark, and their eyes looked large because they were too thin.

"Tsubasas, slow down, wait for me!" The little boy who was slightly behind was named Qi Feibai, and the boy who ran in front of him was called Taiyi.

The two of them are neighbors, but Taiyi is a little better than Qi Feibai, and they only have one sister who needs to be taken care of by him as an elder brother.

Qi Feibai is different, he has three younger brothers and two elder brothers, of which the eldest brother went to the city, and has not received any news from the eldest brother, and the second brother is also going to go to the city to find the eldest brother soon.

Soon he will have to take care of his younger brothers, and now he can still go to school to listen to classes, all because his second brother is still at home.

When the two of them arrived at that dilapidated school, it was already out of school, yes, in this big mountain, this dilapidated school, oh no, the little shabby house, was the only place where they could learn.

There is only one old man Zhao who has been to the city in elementary school, teaching them knowledge to these children who get up early in the morning and rush here, today Qi Feibai and Taiyi are late, and Old Man Zhao only has one class a day.

"This is the third time you've both been late." Old man Zhao lived on crutches, looking at these two panting children, because they had been barefoot since they were born and learned to walk, and the soles of their feet already had a thick layer of cocoons, so this mountain road could no longer hurt them.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao, it's because of me that Tai Yi was late today..."Qi Feibai lowered his head with a guilty face, if it weren't for the fact that he was pulled by his three younger brothers before going out, he and Tai Yi would not be late.

"Well, go back, don't be late next time." Old man Zhao didn't make an exception to teach the two of them a separate lesson, but asked the two of them to go home early.

Tai Yi and Qi Feibai walked on the mountain road back dejectedly, there were many small stones on the road, which was a painless existence for them.

"Ah Bai, when I grow up, I must leave here!" Taiyi's eyes are full of fighting spirit and yearning for growing up, and sooner or later, he must leave this mountain.

"Well, when I grow up, I'm going to leave with my younger brothers." Now Qi Feibai still has younger brothers in his heart, but he has no feelings for his parents.

The people in the village would always tell him that his mother was bought back by his father, so his mother would run away in the end, and that his mother was a watery poplar and a woman who was not willing to be lonely.

When the eldest brother was still there, he was often beaten and scolded by his father, and later the eldest brother went to the city, and it was the second brother's turn to be beaten and scolded by his father, and when the second brother left, it was his turn.

"Ah Bai, listen to my advice, your three younger brothers can't be taken away, they will only become a burden to you, I heard my dad say that the consumption of people in the city is very high, and you can't afford to support your three younger brothers."

What Tai Yi said is true, in a bustling city, he Qi Feibai may not be able to afford the tuition fee for a person to go to school.

"But Xiao Yi, my younger brothers will only become a burden to me for a while, and they cannot become a burden to me in this life." Qi Feibai believes that his three younger brothers will definitely become talented in the future.

Tai Yi has always said that he can't talk about Qi Feibai, so he simply changed the topic: "When will your second brother go to the city to find your eldest brother." ”

"I don't know, every time my second brother talks to my dad about it, my dad will beat my second brother, saying that my eldest brother is a white-eyed wolf, and the second brother is also going to be a white-eyed wolf."

The way the second brother was beaten, Qi Feibai saw it every time, he would dream every night that after the second brother left, he was beaten and scolded by his father, and he even hoped that the second brother would not leave, so that he would not be beaten.

"Ah Bai, it's really not good, let's escape." Tai Yi is also very aware of the situation in Qi Feibai's family, if his second brother really leaves, Qi Feibai will become the target of being beaten and scolded by his father.

Qi Feibai is only eight years old, his second brother is ten years old, neither of them can afford to be beaten by an adult man all year round, and Qi Feibai's three younger brothers are even more vulnerable.

"I'm gone, what about the brothers, they will be beaten to death by that man!" Qi Feibai said that it was impossible to escape, and his younger brothers were still too young.

His emotions were a bit excessive, causing him to address his father from 'Dad' to 'that man'.

"What about you?! You will be beaten to death by that man, even if not now, one day in the future, you will die at his hands sooner or later! Taiyi stopped, grabbed Qi Feibai's shoulders with both hands, and shook it vigorously as he said.

He wanted to shake his good friend until he woke up, he didn't want to watch Qi Feibai sacrifice his life for his three younger brothers.

"Ah Bai, admit it, your eldest brother obviously ran away, and what your second brother said was going to the city to find him, it was all an excuse, they all wanted to selfishly escape from this mountain and escape from that home!"

Tai Yi's words, every sentence and every word turned into one sharp sword after another, piercing Qi Feibai's heart, and his heart was full of holes at this moment.

"Xiao Tsubasa, let's go with the flow, I want to protect my younger brothers." His natural path is to live one day at a time, how long he can protect his younger brothers, and see how long he can bear it.

"Ah Bai, I hope you won't regret it." The two of them set off again, running in the direction of home, and they shuttled between the mountains and forests, where there were not many people.

But they are all extremely feudal and superstitious people, these people can never leave this mountain, which is their deep-rooted home.

After another three months, Qi Feibai's second brother left home one night and left the mountain, and a few days later, the man, Qi Feibai's father, got a sum of money from nowhere.

He used that money to buy boxes and boxes of wine, and when he got drunk, he began to beat and scold Qi Feibai and his three younger brothers, and Qi Feibai tried his best to protect his younger brothers in his arms.

"Master, I finally don't have to keep you white-eyed wolves anymore... Hahaha... It won't be long before ... Belch... Someone will come and take you white-eyed wolves... Hahahaha..."

The man punched and kicked Qi Feibai, and laughed maniacally, Qi Feibai understood, he and his brothers were sold by this man, and soon the buyer would pick them up.

He had to find a way to get his brothers to escape, but even if they could, how would they survive? The world beyond the mountain is full of unknown dangers, what should he do...
