……

In the morning, the villagers of Sanniu Village start a busy day, and at the end of the year, the adults in the city will come to collect grain, if they can't pay the grain, it will be looked down upon.

Chen Dashan held the sickle and waved it vigorously, the muscles of his naked upper body bulged, and the muddy sweat flowed down the strong lines.

"Brother Dashan, are you sleeping with a mother-in-law's body that can't sleep? It's been a morning since I harvested such a little grain and wheat. ”

"How can you say that about our big mountain brother, he hasn't asked for a daughter-in-law yet, maybe he is messing with someone's mother-in-law at night!"

In the wheat field in the distance, two sturdy men squeezed their eyebrows and laughed at Chen Dashan, they were the two brothers of Chen Dashan's neighbor's family, one was named Zhao Fan, and the other was called Zhao Bufan.

Due to the proximity of the two families and the fact that they are both energetic young people, when working in the fields, it is only interesting to mix and chat, otherwise they will not suffocate to death.

"Fuck off your mother's eggs, when you have eaten, Lao Tzu will even cut off a piece of your family's land." Chen Dashan laughed and scolded, but he couldn't help wiping a handful of sweat, it was really hot this day, and then his heart moved, threw down the sickle, and went out of the wheat field.

Behind the two lands, there is a river, the river water is very muddy and cannot be drunk at all, but it does not prevent people from finding a cool place in the river, especially the half-grown children in the village, who usually play in it.

Chen Dashan jumped into the river, the river water was just over his thighs, and the instant coldness made him feel excited, and then he got used to it, squatted down, only exposed his head on the water, and exhaled comfortably.

After a while, Xu felt that the time was almost up, so he went ashore and wanted to go back, but at this moment, his footsteps on the shore stopped, and his eyes widened to look at the direction of the river.

It was a muddy river, but at this time there was a lot of blood, and a person floated from the upper stream, and I didn't know whether it was dead or alive.

……

"Brother Dashan, where did you get this person back?" Zhao Fan swallowed his saliva and looked at the person on Chen Dashan's back with some fear.

No wonder he was afraid, it was the appearance of this man that frightened him.

The word bruises all over the body to describe this person are light, the burn marks almost all over the body, if it is not for the rise and fall of the chest, who would know that this is actually a living person?

"Don't fucking talk nonsense, come and help," Chen Dashan blushed, gritted his teeth and said, there is one thing to say, this person on his back is really fucking heavy, I'm afraid I can catch up with a cow.

Zhao Fan and Zhao Bufan were stunned for a moment, then stiffly stretched out their hands and carried the person to the pharmacist's house in the village.

"Dashan, what are you carrying??"

The old medicine man squinted his eyes, he was old, his eyes were not as good as before, and the person who was carried here was charred and burned, although the smell of blood was strong, but how could Sanniu Village have ever seen such an injured person? So for a while, I didn't even think about people.

"Old man, this is a man! It's people! The corners of Chen Dashan's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he said hurriedly: "Hurry up and save me!" ”

"What? It's people! The old pharmacist was shocked, and hurriedly walked in to take a look, and this look suddenly became solemn, this thing in front of him is not a person!

But why was this person so badly injured?

And how can he survive such injuries?

It's amazing! Weird!

"Old man, can this person still be saved?" Chen Dashan asked.

"It's just a small burn, even if the burning area is larger, as long as the herbs are enough, there are still some drops!" The old pharmacist said confidently.

"That's good, that's good." Chen Dashan breathed a sigh of relief, although this person had nothing to do with him, but in the end, it was a human life, and he still couldn't do it if he didn't save him.

"It's just ......" The old medicine man looked at the three of them hesitantly, stroked his long beard, and said, "It's just ...... The cost of this medicine is a bit expensive, and it takes two hundred copper coins. ”

The old pharmacist's words made the three of them look at each other, in order to save an unknown person, they took two hundred copper coins, is this willing?

Take Chen Dashan's family as an example, the annual income is only 500 copper coins, and after planing the food and clothing, there will be 300 left, and it will cost 200 at once, and anyone has to think about it.

"Brother Dashan, why don't we forget it, even if this person is saved and sees his appearance, it is estimated that life is worse than death, why let him suffer this crime?" Zhao Fan whispered.

"Yes, Brother Dashan, if we can save it, we also want to save it, but these two hundred copper coins are not a small amount, and we can't be the master." Zhao Bufan's eyes flickered, no one's money was blown by the wind, it was all saved little by little with hard sweat, how could he be willing to give it?

Chen Dashan was silent for a moment, looked at the old pharmacist and said, "Old man, you save him, I will pay for this medicine." ”

The old pharmacist looked at Chen Dashan and smiled.

"Look at your sad faces, isn't this life worth two hundred dollars?"

"Okay, don't joke with you boys, the cost of this medicine is only fifty yuan, you will send me the money later."

The old pharmacist turned his back and walked into the hut to begin dispensing medicine, leaving three stunned young men behind.

"I heard that the old man peeked at Wu's mother taking a bath when he was young."

"I didn't believe it before, but now I think it's quite true."

"It's not just true, I've heard ......"

Not to mention Chen Dashan and the others, the old pharmacist walked into the hut, his expression suddenly became solemn, the injured person's injury was not so simple, it was not an ordinary injury at all.

And the people who didn't die after such injuries, except for the noble evolutionary, he couldn't think of anyone among ordinary people who could resist.

"I didn't expect that the old man was almost in the ground, and I would be lucky enough to save an evolutionary."

The old pharmacist smiled proudly and looked at the room full of medicinal herbs......

……

Tiptoeing out of his mother's room, Chen Dashan took the money bag, breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to leave, but found that a young girl stopped there at the door.

"Brother, what are you doing with so much money?" Her younger sister Chen Xiaolan blocked the way, and her quirky eyes stared at the money bag in Chen Dashan's hand.

"What does the little girl know, go to school." Chen Dashan's heart jumped, his big hand pressed the top of his sister's head, pushed it aside, and went out of the house.

Chen Xiaolan was annoyed, and went back to the house angrily, she couldn't control her brother, but someone could take care of it?

And this is exactly the case, in the evening, when Chen Dashan returned home from the field, he was very worried.

Compared to two hundred dollars, fifty dollars doesn't seem like much, but it also depends on whose house it is! For an ordinary family from a peasant family, fifty yuan is also a lot of money.

What's even more unfortunate is that it was also discovered, which is embarrassing.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the house, he noticed that the atmosphere was not right, there were a few small dishes on the table, his mother Wang Ying sat at the table, looking at it, and beside him, Chen Xiaolan looked at him proudly.

"Dashan, did you get the money at home?" Wang Ying asked.

"Well, I saved someone and need money for medicine." Chen Dashan told the truth, this matter could not be hidden, and he did not feel that he had done anything wrong.

"Saving people?" Wang Ying's face softened, and she didn't think that Chen Dashan would lie to her, and said: "Then you just tell me, why take the money secretly?" ”

"Isn't this afraid that you won't agree......" Chen Dashan sneered and glared at Chen Xiaolan.

"Mother, my brother glared at me!" Not to be outdone, Chen Xiaolan glared at Chen Dashan and complained.

"Don't blame your sister for telling me, that's fifty dollars, do you really think I won't find out?" Wang Ying sighed, then looked at Chen Xiaolan, and said sternly: "And you, don't stare at your brother all day long, read more books, understand some things, so that when you go to a big family in the future, someone will be willing to protect you!" ”

Chen Xiaolan lowered her head aggrievedly and remained silent.

"The monks in the Buddhist temple said that saving a life is better than building a seven-level floating slaughter, this good man, there is a good reward, I don't believe it, but if you can save people, although our family is not rich, but we will still save it." Wang Ying's expression was gloomy, and he said, "If your father hadn't been saved by no one at the beginning, he wouldn't have left so early, our family is not that kind of person." ”

When Wang Ying said this, he seemed to have lost the interest in talking, picked up the chopsticks and said, "I'm tired of a day, let's eat." ”

The brother and sister agreed, and the atmosphere at the table suddenly fell silent, except for the sound of the dishes and chopsticks touching, and if their father was there, life would be much better.

After a while, Chen Dashan looked at his sister's still depressed expression, remembered something, and suddenly said: "I don't want Xiaolan to be a maid for others, I want to send her to the academy." ”

Chen Xiaolan was stunned and looked at her brother in surprise.

"Dashan, that academy is not something that we ordinary people can enter." Wang Ying stopped his chopsticks and said.

"It's a big deal, I'll go out at night to find a living, it's harder, and I can still afford a thousand dollars." Chen Dashan bowed his head and said.

"It's just nonsense, you're a man in the family now, if something happens to you, what will happen to this family? With the handicrafts I make for others, can I afford to support my family? Wang Ying said angrily.

"But when my father left, he said that he didn't want Xiaolan to be a servant for others." Chen Dashan continued: "Moreover, as long as Xiaolan enters the academy and becomes an evolutionary, won't our family have a better life?" ”

"No, absolutely not!" Wang Ying said with a cold face, with a hidden pain in her heart, as Chen Xiaolan's mother, why didn't she want to send Xiaolan to the academy? Who wants their daughters to serve tea and water to others, or even be beaten and scolded?

It's just that if something happens to Chen Dashan because of fatigue, she will really regret it for the rest of her life.

"Brother, I'll just go to be a maid, I heard that some big families in the city give very generous wages," Chen Xiaolan said in a low voice, tears falling into the bowl, mixed in the dish, swallowed.

Chen Dashan no longer spoke, but the gaze in his eyes became more resolute.

……

On the second day, Chen Dashan got up very early, and after harvesting wheat in the field, he came to the old pharmacist's house, and then, the scene in front of him was deeply imprinted in the depths of his mind.

A person wrapped in a white cloth lying on the couch, there is no sign of awakening, there is a bit of fairy wind bones on weekdays, although it is rumored that the old pharmacist is wearing a pink robe, waving his hands and floating in his heart, chanting words.

"Demons and monsters, get out of ......"

"Demons and monsters, get out of ......"

With a serious look and the tempting fragrance in the room, if it weren't for the fact that he had been tired all morning, Chen Dashan really thought that he was still in a dream.

The demonic voice lingered in his head, and he admitted that in his eyes, the world at this time was subverted and strange.
