After March, the eastern country, the western highland region, the Naple region. A cowherd is basking in the sun on the top of a hill surrounded by a herd of cows. The cowherd baby is called Mu Bazhuo, the cattle on this hillside are all his family, most of the cattle are full, lying together on the hillside, lazily basking in the sun, and the cow's tail flicks around to drive away the mosquitoes flying back and forth. Some of the gluttonous cows are still wandering around in search of fatter pasture.

A man and a woman came down the hill and asked Bazhuo for directions: "Kid, where is the nearest town here?" ”

Mu Bazhuo tilted his head and looked at the two people, the man was extremely thin, his face was pale, and he felt shaky. The girl was slightly dark, but her eyes were bright and bright, and Mu Bazhuo was stunned, she had never seen such a beautiful young lady.

Seeing the young lady ask him, he almost forgot to speak, blushed to his ears and neck, and stretched out his finger to point to the mountain behind him.

"Flip... Flip over... Cross the mountain. ”

"Thank you, little friend." The girl smiled at him.

Mu Bazhuo looked at the backs of the two of them in the past, and thought to himself, if I marry a wife when I grow up, I will marry such a young lady. After that, he also looked at the man, her man is really weak, I don't want to be so weak in the future, and I have to be supported by a girl to walk, Ba Zhuo thought so in his heart, and whistled at the yak in his heart, it's time to graze.

When the sun was setting in the west, Mu Bazhuo drove the cattle back to the town, and when he passed by the Neapolitan Temple in front of the town, he patted the leading cow, and the cow was also spiritual, mooed, and beckoned dozens of large and small cows to go back to the town, and the cows could go home by themselves.

And he himself, getting off the back of the ox, climbed the steps of the Neapolitan temple. Every day after herding the cows, he would always come to the temple to help, which was a custom set by the families of believers here. Cultivate this life and repay the next life. This is the custom in the Neapolitan region. Therefore, since he was a child, his parents taught him to go to the Buddha more often, and his parents would come to the temple every month to work.

The Naple temple is built in the middle of the mountain, it is a thousand-year-old temple in the Naple area, even the name of the town comes from this, although the temple is not big, but it is like a spiritual grass in the desolate plateau river, so solemn and quiet. Although the mottled whitewashed walls are repaired every year, they are still peeling off over the years. In front of the mountain gate, an old bent pine, planted in an unknown year, was trampled out of the pit on the stone road, and someone was sweeping the pine needles that fell to the ground. Bazhuo bowed to the sweeping monks, the temple was already very familiar to Mu Bazhuo, familiar like his second home.

He was jumping and humming an unknown mountain tune, and when he passed by the incense hall as usual, he suddenly seemed to see a man and a woman he saw on the other side of the mountain talking to the old monk in the hall. Out of curiosity, he leaned in.

Few people know how old the old monk is, and the old monk has a wide range of knowledge, and the Eastern medicine is also quite successful, and the herdsmen of the entire Naple region are sick and sick in the temple to seek medicine. Ba Zhuo passed by and heard the old monk say: "The donor has been deeply infected with the evil, and it is already a miracle that he is still alive." The old monk could not do anything, he could only thank God for the virtue of good life, and chanted two sutras for the donor in the morning and evening, hoping that the donor would be desperate to survive. ”

I couldn't help but lean on the door and look in.

The two are Zeng Zhengdong and Su Xiaoyu. The two have traveled in the mountains and rivers in the past two months, and have occasional adventures. The western plateau is a pristine topography with steep peaks at the border, and it becomes magnificent after entering the hinterland. Many of the lakes have melted from the glaciers of the plateau, and many of these places are like paradises. Zeng Zhengdong was in good spirits at the beginning, and he could accompany Su Xiaoyu and the two of them to stop and talk, but as two months passed, Zeng Zhengdong changed sharply from good to bad and now he has become weak. That is, Su Xiaoyu took care of the details, otherwise Zeng Zhengdong was alone at the beginning. I'm afraid I don't know where to bury it in now. Zeng Zhengdong knew that his time was running out, and his heart to play in the mountains and rivers was gone, so he urged Su Xiaoyu to find a place to settle down. Seeing that Zeng Zhengdong's situation was not good, Su Xiaoyu didn't dare to delay, the two of them found a nearby town, intending to settle down, Su Xiaoyu endured the bitterness, still beat his spirit, and planned to send Zeng Zhengdong on his last journey with a smile.

Su Xiaoyu bowed, "Anyway, thank you Master for your mercy, my brother's illness is no longer suitable for the journey." ”

"Don't get in the way, the one who comes is a guest, and the two donors come here to make arrangements for the Buddha to fulfill a good result for us and other ascetic cultivators." I happened to see Mu Bazhuo eavesdropping outside the door, and beckoned, and the old monk called Mu Bazhuo in. Su Xiaoyu smiled at Mu Bazhuo again, "Hello, little friend, see you again." ”

Mu Bazhuo blushed, scratched his head, and smiled silly.

The old monk instructed: "Ba Zhuo, you take the two of you to the west side of the incense room to settle down." I don't need to study the Bible today. The two donors, this is Bazhuo, who often comes to study the scriptures and is familiar with the environment. Since you happen to have met too, let him take you there. ”

In this way, Zeng Zhengdong and Su Xiaoyu settled down in Naple, and Ba Zhuo also liked to come here to listen to Brother Zeng's stories, and those magical things that he had never heard of made him yearn for them. Blackwater's stories terrified Bazhuo, who was glad that children his age were under constant threat of death. When Zeng Zhengdong said that several of them had gone through hardships and left alive from Heishui, Ba Zhuo's tightly clenched fist finally loosened, and the whole person breathed a sigh of relief...

Time passed slowly like this, and I don't know if he was infected by Zeng Zhengdong's vivid description, or moved by those years of blood and tears. Mu Bazhuo was more active than studying the scriptures every day, and he hurried to see Zeng Zhengdong when he was in a hurry, he sometimes listened to a story with tears in his eyes, and was amused by another funny story, and when he heard the depths of the story, he was full of anger. When I heard the ending, I gritted my teeth and was unwilling. He even had the illusion that Zeng Zhengdong was the protagonist of these stories, and at this time, Zeng Zhengdong was the same as in these stories, a wild wolf in the twilight, with pain and declining physical strength, which made him unwilling, but he had to accept his fate. In a trance, these stories converge into a picture: on a moonlit night, an old wolf in the twilight, dragging his tired body, roaring in the sky... Then he fell unwillingly, Mu Bazhuo, in this peaceful town, felt the world of flowers and flowers that he had never felt, laughing and scolding. Perhaps it was also at this time that a seed was planted in Bazhuo's heart, a wild seed. He imprinted the unwillingness in the story in his heart and turned it into his own unwillingness, and he gradually turned the joys, sorrows and sorrows in the story into the joys, sorrows and sorrows of his life.

The next day, when Mu Bazhuo came to the temple, he made a special trip to Zeng Zhengdong, looked at Su Xiaoyu, and then looked at Zeng Zhengdong, and took off a huge Bodhi seed from his neck. "Brother Zeng, thank you for telling Ba Zhuo a story, Ba Zhuo is a cow herding baby, and reading and literacy are taught by old monks. also said that I don't have Huigen, and I will be a cattle herder in this life. ”

"This, my dad gave it to me, I heard your story, I want to give it to you. Because my father told me that we live and work here in peace and contentment because there are heroes who carry the sky for us, so that the cattle herding baby can have a happy life. I think that the person in your story, Brother Zeng, is the hero who resists the sky. ”

Zeng Zhengdong was in a rare mood today, he accepted the Bodhi of the cow baby, although Su Xiaoyu got the latest research and development of the anti-radiation agent 'X-adg' to slow down the radiation decay of his body, but the pain brought was not much less. He has been in an irritable mood, and I don't know why, when he holds this Bodhi in his hand, he has a rare temporary peace in his heart. He also took off his nameplate from his neck and put it on Ba Zhuo's neck, and Ba Zhuo touched the nameplate in surprise: a pure black metal plate like a black iron, but he didn't recognize the word "black water" engraved on the nameplate in Dongguo bone inscription. At the bottom is 00459-05, which is Zeng Zhengdong's number. Badra put it away as if he had found a treasure. pestered Zeng Zhengdong and Su Xiaoyu to tell him the story, and finally left satisfied.

Two days later, when Ba Zhuo finished his temple work and went to the incense room in the west to find Zeng Zhengdong and the others, the door of the wing room was closed. The room has long been empty. Bazhuo felt a loss in his heart, and the monk who swept the floor told him that this morning the two of them had left their duties and gone east. It seems that there was a foreshadowing of the contamination, Ba Zhuo recalled Zeng Zhengdong's deteriorating appearance, his heart couldn't help but be blocked for a while, tears couldn't stop falling, and he hurriedly chased after him, Ba Zhuo was not stupid, he already knew Zeng Zhengdong's incurable disease during this period of time.

Outside Naples, a sunny valley, the scenery in the valley is pleasant, Zeng Zhengdong once praised when he first came to the valley, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is also a good place to go after death. At this time, Zeng Zhengdong had already run out of oil and lamps, he was almost unable to speak, and there was a sense of death all over his body.

"Xiaoyu, it's time for you to go back. Thank you... These days I... to truly live for yourself ... ”

Su Xiaoyu silently stared at Zeng Zhengdong who was lying on the grass, and could no longer force a smile. knew that he had to say goodbye, but when this day came, Su Xiaoyu found that he still couldn't accept it. Teardrops are like beads of broken thread.

"Brother Zeng, no... I'm not going.. I'm here with you. ”

"Silly... You've been with my brother all the way... Obedient.... You don't listen ... I'm not at ease... He gasped violently.

Xiaoyu was speechless, just silently crying. It seems that I want to leave the tears of this life here. The palm of the man's hand remained in front of him.

Zeng Zhengdong's eyes were scattered, and the picture of his short but magnificent life flashed in his mind. Flashed the burning Regent's palace, flashed the stinking villages littered with corpses, flashed the bloodshed that could not be washed clean, flashed the towering God's Gate Tower, flashed the faces that were either gone or never seen again, flashed the cold face and waved the whip mercilessly、。。。。。。。。 In the end, it is frozen on the faces of three naïve and stubborn children.

Suddenly, it seemed that Su Xiaoyu had also returned to the original orphanage. A group of boys bullied her, snatched her toys and grabbed her candy, Zeng Zhengdong rushed forward and fought with the boys.

Back to the Blackwater Camp, that rainy night, they knelt on the ground, the instructor whipped over with a whip, and Zeng Zhengdong held her and Peng Bo deadly, blocking in front of the two of them and letting the poisonous whip be whipped on him.

"You have said that mercy is the cheapest emotion in the world. But he carried everything for others. ”

"You once said that when we retire, we will find a big quadrangle, we will all live together, a big family, for Chuanzi, Brother Dog, Thirteen, Pengbo, find a beautiful daughter-in-law."

Mu Bazhuo came panting and saw Mu Ran's Su Xiaoyu and Zeng Zhengdong in her arms. His legs were weak and he knelt in front of Zeng Zhengdong, he didn't know what to say, he just cried, and Zeng Zhengdong in Su Xiaoyu's arms had no breath. The first ace agent of the Eastern Kingdom, who has fallen here!

At this time, none of them noticed that the dusk sky and the clear blue sky seemed to have disappeared. There was a strange scene in the sky。。。。。
