This was obviously what he was supposed to do when he came to this place, but not only did he not feel very happy, but his heart was blocked.

Until noon, neither of them came back, Cui Xu and Ning'er had completely given up the idea of opening, and made some food casually at noon, and put it in the store to eat it themselves.

Before the meal was halfway through, the sound of the door opening suddenly came from the backyard, and Ning Er's eyes lit up: "It is estimated that my sister and brother Huai are back!" ”

As he spoke, he threw down his chopsticks and pounced on the backyard like a bird: "Sister! Brother Huai! The meal is ready, come and eat...... Brother Huai! ”

What was originally a crisp and cute call turned into an exclamation at the end.

The last time Aunt Li had an accident, Ning Er reacted like this, Cui Xu immediately threw down the chopsticks in her hand after hearing Ning Er's exclamation, and ran to the backyard.

Qianlu saw that both of them were running towards the backyard, and he followed hesitantly.

When he was the last to lift the curtain to the backyard and look at the people who had returned, he immediately fell into a panic.

The person who came back was Huai Yanqing.

I saw that he was covered in blood, his body was full of wounds, and there were traces of hastily bandaging on his back and shoulders, and the blood fainted and stained his entire clothes miserably.

Seeing that he was about to fall to the ground as soon as he stumbled, Cui Xu quickly helped Huai Yanqing up: "What's going on?" ”

Huai Yanqing didn't answer his question, but tried to take a few steps forward, the hatred in his eyes carried murderous aura, and he grabbed Qianlu's collar with one hand.

"Are you happy that the shopkeeper is dead?"

Huai Yanqing's voice trembled, with indescribable grief and indignation.

He only said this sentence and vomited a mouthful of blood and sprayed Qianlu's body, and then fell down, unconscious.

Cui Xu and Ning Er were stunned when Huai Yanqing said those words, and Ning Er was even more shocked and covered her mouth, and tears flowed down instantly.

But there was no time for them to continue grieving, Huai Yanqing was very seriously injured, and Cui Xu carried him on his back with the help of Ning'er and took him to the house to lie down.

Leaving Qianlu outside alone.

Lin Jinxiu, dead?

Qianlu looked at the blood sprayed on his body by Huai Yanqing, and he couldn't believe it.

However, a person as strong as Huai Yanqing can be injured like this, how can the shopkeeper survive?

Qianlu wiped a handful on his body, wiping the blood all over his hands.

Before he came, his mother told him that this was a vital task and that he should not fail.

It's a difficult task, and the only way for a waste like him to prove his worth is to get it done.

Now that the task is complete, it is a great achievement for the family, but he ......

Why is he so sad......

Ning'er's crying and Cui Xu's sigh came from the house in front of him, and Qianlu lowered his head and walked to the store in despair.

As he passed by the bar, he looked at the place where he had worked for more than a month.

Everything is so familiar, and every lunch is eaten here with Lin Jinxiu and them.

"You will be called Qianlu from now on."

"May you be a humble gentleman and be blessed and healthy for a lifetime."

This is what Lin Jinxiu said when he named him, these two sentences have always been remembered by Qianlu, along with the words, tone, and even Lin Jinxiu's expression when he said this, he remembered it in his heart.

But he is not called Qianlu, he is the sixty-fourth in the family.

I don't know when he wanted to be a humble man and wanted to live by Lin Jinxiu's side for a lifetime.

But Lin Jinxiu died, the one who often smiled warmly at him, bandaged his wounds, was willing to save his sister, stood behind him to warm him and tolerate him......

He's dead.

was killed by him, and it can even be said that he killed her.

And they already knew that Lin Jinxiu was killed by him.

Qianlu lowered his hand, lowered his head, and slowly walked out of the splendid world.

As he left the street, he turned around again and took a deep look at the door of the store where he had lived for so long, and turned around three times to leave.

He followed the path that his sister had taken with Lin Jinxiu last time he was ill and came to the door of the county guard's house, and took out a leaf from his pocket.

With the leaves in his mouth, Qianlu frowned and blew out a melody like a bird's call, and when he was done, he tore the leaves open and threw them on the side of the road.

He walked down the street with his head bowed, all the way out of the city, into the little hut from which he had not returned for a long time, and sat heavily on the edge of the bed, waiting for something.

And while he was waiting, Lin Jinxiu's smiling face unconsciously appeared in his mind.

Every word of care they gave him, every greeting, every food and gadgets stuffed into him were deeply engraved in his memory, and he couldn't shake it off.

And...... The more I think about it, the sadder I become.

"Brother!" His sister's voice appeared at the door, and Qianlu hurriedly opened the door and welcomed his sister in.

My sister seems to be thinner than before she went to the county guard house for treatment, and the ulcer area on her body is also expanding, and her eyes are also losing light because of the pain on her body.

Why is my sister obviously going to heal, but her body has become worse and worse?

The little girl threw herself into Qianlu's arms and looked at Qianlu with her big godless eyes: "Brother! We can finally go home! ”

"Hmm." Qianlu gently patted his sister on the back, "It's time to go home." ”

"Brother, I'm amazing!" The little girl hurriedly asked for credit from Qianlu, "I haven't eaten anything at the county guard's house!" ”

"What?" When Qianlu heard his sister say this, he came back to his senses.

"Whether it's the medicine given by the dead old man or the food given by the shopkeeper Lin, I haven't taken it! Didn't eat a bite! After mentioning Dr. Ren, the little girl snorted hatefully, "Obviously you can't cure me at all, and you want to prescribe strange medicine to harm me, no way!" ”

No wonder she has been with Dr. Ren for so long, but her health is not good at all.

Speaking of this, the little girl frowned and looked at her brother: "But brother, I seem to be more uncomfortable, let's go back and let my mother treat me." ”

"Okay." At the mention of letting his mother heal his illness, Qianlu's eyes seemed to have brilliance.

He picked up the little girl and ran towards the door, "Now my brother will take you back for treatment." ”

"Hmm!" The little girl hugged Qianlu's neck with her bandaged hand.

Fortunately, there is a sister here.

Holding his sister in his arms, Qianlu felt a lot better.

Go home, go home, and when you go home, you can get the reward of your mother, and you can forget about Lin Jinxiu......

As he ran, Qianlu kept saying to himself in his heart:

I'm the sixty-fourth, I'm the sixty-fourth, I'm not humility, I'm not ......

The journey home was a little long, and Qianlu ran on the mountain road that he often walked, walking like a fly.

Although his light skills are very lame, it is still very easy for him to climb such a mountain road.

I walked for a long time on the mountain road with my sister in my arms, and by the time he got home, it was dark.

The home of Qianlu and his sister is a hidden house in the mountains and forests outside the county town.

On the surface, the house looks like it has only one floor, but in fact, there is something else underground.

The underside of the house is like an ant's burrow, stretching down the passage to one small space after another, each with a different purpose.

Some rooms are full of bottles and cans, as if they are experimenting with something, and some rooms are planted with purple flowers and plants, which look very beautiful.

The gatekeeper found out that it was Qianlu who came back, and did not stop him, but just gave him a faint look and let him in.

My sister's illness got worse when she was on the road, she kept coughing, and what she coughed up turned into blood, and Qianlu's heart throbbed for a while.

"Mother, is my mother back?" Qianlu anxiously asked everyone he met on the road, but no one paid attention to him.

After asking for a long time, Qianlu slammed into a person at the corner of the corridor before stopping.

"I went out to do a task, and I forgot the rules when I did it."

The person who Qianlu bumped into head-on was the woman he called "Mother", he quickly apologized, put his sister down, and the two of them knelt in front of her together.

With anger on her mother's face, she kicked Qianlu on the shoulder: "Then what kind of ecstasy soup did Lin Jinxiu pour you, do you still want to go back to her?" ”

"Don't dare." Qianlu raised his head and looked at the woman, "The Huai Yanqing beside Lin Jinxiu returned to the store and said that Lin Jinxiu was dead. ”

"What? Lin Jinxiu is dead? That "mother" seemed to know the news, looked at Qianlu and said, "Tell me clearly." ”

Qianlu reported to the "mother": "At noon today, Huai Yanqing returned to the store, seriously injured, and said that Lin Jinxiu was dead. ”

Qian Lu hesitated for a long time, but still concealed the detail of Huai Yanqing pulling his collar.

"Is it......" Hearing Qianlu's report, the anger on the woman's face disappeared, and she laughed twice, squatted down and helped Qianlu up, "Good boy, do a beautiful job, you can also be an adult on your own." ”

It was the first time that Qianlu was touched by his "mother's hand", and he held his mother's hand with a little trembling: "It's what I should do." ”

It turns out that there is still warmth in my home.

Qianlu lowered his head, a little like crying.

He had fantasized a few years ago that these hands could shake him, and this time it finally came true.

Although these hands were very cold, they did not have Lin Jinxiu's warmth at all......

Qianlu shook his head and expelled Lin Jinxiu's figure from his mind.

I can't think of her, she's just the goal of my mission, and my mother is the character I should be loyal to.

Plus his sister is also here, even if it's for his sister, he should try to live.

Work hard, work hard to stand in a high position, and give my sister a good life.

"If you have any wishes, if you have anything you want, just tell your mother." The woman looked at Qianlu with a very kind smile on her face.

Qianlu looked at his mother's kind face, lowered his head and was a little moved: "I want to ...... My sister is not feeling well and wants to treat my sister. Please, mother, save my sister. ”
