In the year 11042, on the winter solstice on December 21, the gray snow was boundless.

Two young children, dressed in baskets, walked in the snow supporting each other, their eyes blank and their dirty faces red from the cold.

The young figure walked from the refugee area towards the street in the distance.

A biting cold wind blew!

One of the toddlers fell straight into the snow.

"Joseph (Eye of God), get up quickly."

Another toddler anxiously tried to pull Joseph up, but he was so hungry that he didn't have much strength at all, and he couldn't pull him up.

Joseph, who fell to the ground, trembled incessantly, and saw that the parts of his hands and feet that were exposed to chilblains had festered and were faintly blackened by the erosion of the gray snow.

"Joxiu, I, I'm so cold, am I going to die?"

With red eyes, Joshua pulled Joseph to the side of the abandoned roof with all his might, and said to Joseph with a crying voice.

"You won't die, I'm here, I'll go find you something to eat, you wait for me."

Then Josius ran down the street alone, kowtowing to everyone who passed by, begging for a little food.

However, everyone who passed by just shook their heads and walked around without any stops.

In the distance, above a tall building, a huge hologram, a man dressed in gentleman's costume is giving an impassioned speech.

"Our wonderful home is nearing completion, and it will be our new paradise! For the sake of a bright future, please abide by the latest policies of the Empire! Don't believe any slander! The pain and fear we are suffering now, all this is the conspiracy of those despicable enemies who fear our rise and bring the seeds of calamity from the distant universe......"

Joshua curled up, braving the cold wind, walked through the streets with difficulty, pitifully stretched out his little hand, begging along the way to those who walked indifferently.

It's a pity that nothing is begged for.

At this time, a drunk man came over and knocked Joxiu to the ground!

Drunken scolding!

"Little bunnies don't have long eyes!"

As he spoke, he just wanted to stretch out his foot, and was about to kick it.

At this moment, a whistle sounded, and the drunken man looked up at him.

I saw several soldiers come over, and a relatively old captain took the lead and whistled, pointing at the drunk man and yelling.

"What are you doing!"

When the drunkard saw this, he turned around and ran away with a frightened face.

"Letov, just a beggar, why do you care so much! Beware of infectious diseases. ”

The soldier next to him reminded the captain when he saw the captain walking towards the young beggar.

"What are you afraid of! Lao Tzu is not alive and well. ”

Retov walked to Joshu's side, only to see Joshua get up with difficulty, and when he saw Lotov and the others, although his immature face was very frightened and his eyes were full of timidity, he still bowed to Retov and thanked him.

Letov reached out and pulled out a piece of dry bread from his chest and handed it to Joshua.

Joshua took it in surprise and thanked Retov excitedly.

"Thank you!"

Then Joshua turned and ran.

"This rabbit is a pretty fast runner, and I'm not going to eat him." Letov said, blowing his somewhat gray beard.

"Okay, it's just a beggar, what else can you expect, get food, of course, quickly find a place to hide and eat, captain, let's continue patrolling."

"Hmm!" Retov nodded slightly.

On the other side, Joxiu excitedly ran back to the abandoned building and shouted.

"Joseph! I want to eat ......"

As a result, the voice stopped abruptly halfway through the shouting, and the eaves of the abandoned buildings were empty, and there was no figure in sight.

Joxiu froze in place, his little face showing an extremely panicked look, and he ran everywhere shouting.

"Joseph! Joseph! Where are you ......"

"Come out ......"

......

In the gray goose feather snow, a small figure ran alone in the snow, screaming in despair.

I don't know how long I shouted, but Joxiu was exhausted, and his voice was hoarse and he couldn't make a sound, and he fell to the ground weakly, still carrying the dry bread in his arms. Bashan loves

Let the gray snowflakes fall on its body, swallowing the temperature of its body little by little.

Joshua felt colder and colder, and his consciousness gradually blurred.

At this time, a vague figure appeared in Joshua's eyes, but Joxiu was so tired that he couldn't help but close his eyes.

After a long time, Yoxiu opened his eyes and sat up and shouted.

"Joseph!"

"Wake up, stinky boy."

A voice came from the side.

Josh turned his head to look, and saw Retov sitting on the side, boiling nutritious soup, and when he saw that it was Retov, he curled up in fear.

Letov turned his head to look at the cowering Joshua and said.

"If you are so timid, don't be afraid, I just picked you up because you were pitiful, if I really didn't care about you, you would have died a long time ago."

Hearing this, the uneasiness on Yoxiu's face eased slightly.

"Drink it all."

Retov handed the boiled nutrition to Joshua.

Joxiu took it, and was about to drink when he suddenly stopped.

"What's the stinky boy?"

"Grandpa, can I save some for Joseph?" Holding back the tempting scent and extreme hunger, Josh mustered up the courage to raise his head and ask.

Retov's body trembled slightly when he heard Joshua call out to his grandfather.

Twist your head to the side and reply.

"Drink it all, don't think about Joseph, while you're in a coma. I've had people look for it, but I haven't seen anyone, and if it's not accidental, it should have been taken away by a wandering xenomorph. ”

Hearing this, Joxiu tears fell into the bowl, and he drank it in a big gulp with tears in his eyes.

------------------------------------------

On the other hand, Joseph felt as if he was going to die, his body was hot and cold, like being in a world of ice and fire, he felt very uncomfortable, he tried his best to open his eyes and wake up, but he just couldn't.

I don't know how long it was, but Joseph, who was in a daze, opened his eyes half-open,

He faintly heard conversation.

"Why are you picking up such a sick boy, what's the use of being so weak?"

"You think I'm going to be fed and hold on and pick up this kid back?"

"It's not that the young lady is coquettish in front of the housemother, she has to bring this kid back, and in the end the housemother can't resist her, and she is moved by compassion. I brought this kid back, but this kid's life is hard enough, and he really picked it up. ”

"Okay, don't talk about it, it won't be good if the lady hears it, and when she tells the mistress, she will be unlucky."

At this moment, with a burst of crisp laughter and rushing footsteps, a petite and delicate figure ran in.

"Miss."

Everyone in the room greeted respectfully.

At this moment, a milky voice sounded.

"How's the big brother?"

"Miss, he's fine, he just needs to recuperate for a while."

"Great."

With that, the figure ran towards the bed.

"Miss, dirty! Dirty! Don't get too close. The servants around hurriedly shouted.

However, it did not stop.

At this moment, an innocent face appeared before Joseph's eyes.

"How are you feeling?"

"Well, it's much better, did you save me?"

"Uh-huh! Big brother, hurry up and get better! I'm waiting for you to play with me. ”

Joseph was inexplicably moved in his heart.

"Okay."
