"Giggles, baby, you run faster!"

Under the bright sun, the cheerful laughter like a lark echoed in the open space in front of the ruined temple.

"Okay!"

Throwing off the shoes full of holes, the little charcoal girl grabbed a three-foot-long paper kite and ran the grass that did not reach the surface of her feet.

"Fly, fly!" When the paper kite swayed into the air, the girl in pink like a porcelain doll pulled the spool and ran happily into the wind.

"Buddha, please bless Wan'er with peace and security, she is the most well-behaved and best person in the world."

Looking at the lotus flower that seemed to bloom in the air, the little girl folded her hands and prayed quietly......

"Woo~"

The autumn wind of August whistled by, as if to sweep away the leaves of the branches, and exert enough strength to pluck the branches.

"Ahh

Before the temple was broken, a jujube tree that was only as thick as an arm was destroyed and bent down, shaking down a little person who was clutching itself along with the dates.

Ignoring the blood marks hanging on her body, the little girl named Nan Nan cheered and picked up more than a dozen green dates around her one by one.

"Thank you, little jujube tree, I will definitely water you every day in the future to catch insects!"

The little head with the withered yellow hair on the top rubbed affectionately on the tree, as if all things in the world were worthy of gratitude.

picked out two small dates with insect eyes and stuffed them into her mouth, and the sweet taste made her smile and squint.

"It's delicious, Wan'er will definitely like it."

Carefully wiped off the soil stained on the dates one by one, and the little figure limped towards the distant village.

This is the first time that the jujube tree in the temple has borne fruit, and she is eager to share it with her good friends......

"That's it!"

Looking at the familiar courtyard in front of her, she patted her small chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.

In the village, there are not only those aunts who beat and scold when they see her, but also big dogs who can chase for a long time, so she doesn't dare to come to the village several times a year.

But she won't admit that this threshold with a corner is missing, since she followed Wan'er from afar once, she will dream about it in three days.

It's just that in the small courtyard at dusk, there is no curling smoke rising to the neighborhood. Instead, there were faint cries full of desolation.

"Oops~ My poor daughter, your life is so miserable!"

"Woo ~ mother, I'm afraid of ......"

"It's all because I'm useless that Wan'er was chosen, I should be damned!"

Blinking incomprehensibly, she didn't know what was going on, but listening to the cries of her best friends in the hospital, tears were rolling down like beads.

Dates are the most delicious thing in the world, maybe Wan'er won't be so sad when she eats them, right?

Wiping the sparkle off her face, she timidly pushed open the unbolted courtyard door.

"Wan'er, I'm here to bring you dates, but it's sweet."

The crying in the courtyard stopped abruptly, but it was not the happy figure that greeted her, but two pairs of blood-red eyes that seemed to be about to be devoured.

"Bang!"

Half of the green brick rubbed his little head and slammed it on the courtyard wall, and the splash of hard rammed earth wiped out deep blood marks on his lips.

"Damn the calamity, you are all responsible!"

The cowardice hidden in her bones drove her to flee from this place, but looking at her best friend's red and swollen eyes, she still gritted her teeth and stayed where she was.

"Auntie, I don't. Nan Nan prayed to the Buddha every day......"

The man in the courtyard didn't listen to the slightest explanation, and dragged him in: "Damn bitch, the disaster star of the dog day......"

The tenacious rattan was pulled down like a storm, as if it was about to tilt all the grievances and anger on this little man who was less than three feet old.

"Woo woo ~ Dad, don't ~ don't fight, the girl is bleeding......"

"Daddy, come here." I don't know what I thought, but the woman who was crying with her daughter in her arms suddenly spoke, called her man to her side and muttered quietly.

For some reason, looking at the two pairs of eyes that were getting brighter and brighter, the little girl curled up on the ground inexplicably felt a trace of coldness from her bones......

“…… Relying on God's blessing, the villagers are healthy, and they will never forget this deep grace and never forget it! ”

"Hmm~Woo~Woo!"

In the midst of the commotion, the little girl who woke up remembered the hideous smile before she fell unconscious, and was so frightened that she wanted to scream.

It's a pity that the tight strip of cloth in his mouth turned his efforts into a few low whimperes like weeping.

Looking at the fanatical faces around her, she twisted her body and tried to flee far away.

However, the stick-like body was tightly bound by the hemp rope the thickness of the thumb, and the more it struggled, the tighter it became, and in the end it seemed to be carved into the bone.

Woo woo ~ Mother, I'm so scared.

Daddy, come and save the girl......

Hot tears fell in strings, soaking the blood-stained placket in a few moments.

But let the crying hoarseness go, in exchange for a pair of cold eyes mixed with disgust.

"Woo ~ 囡囡 ~ don't ......"

The sound of a soft cry mixed with the sound of gongs and drums made her stop, and she looked at her good friend who was crying like a tearful person on the side of the road. She vaguely understood what was going to happen, but there was no hatred in her heart.

Her tear-stained little head lifted as she struggled to squeeze out a stiff smile.

It's okay, I'm just a scourge anyway......

"Carefully have fragrant tea, wine and rice, beautiful virgins, and the king of Fuwei Mountain!"

After Zhu Wen finished reading, dozens of sturdy men threw the villain to the top of the mountain, and they couldn't even untie the rope, and fled down the mountain in embarrassment.

"Whew~~"

Looking at the fierce beast that jumped lightly in the evil wind, even though he comforted himself in his heart a thousand times and was not afraid, tears still poured out like a disobedient spring.

Without looking at the sacrifices all over the ground, the white tiger's bronze bell-like vertical pupils flashed with banter, and the barbed tongue licked towards the shoulder, and the palm-sized flesh was torn off along with the clothes.

"Woo~"

The severe pain made the small body curl up, and the beads of sweat the size of beans instantly made the forehead wet.

One, two, three......

It wasn't until the limbs turned into white bones, and the white tiger, who had finally had enough of playing, opened his bloody mouth and gnawed towards the abdomen.

The fishy wind blew on his face, and in the dilated pupils, he seemed to see two somewhat blurred faces.

"Mother, father, is that you? I miss you so much......"

A belated snowfall fell as the end of the year approached, giving the filth of the ground a cloak of holiness.

I don't know how long it took for the lead-like clouds to fade away in the cold wind. The unshielded moonlight sprinkled like water, making the snow more and more cold.

"Sha~Sha~Sha~"

With the faint sound of Sisuo, a small bag of snow slowly bulged up somewhere on the top of the mountain, like a bud in early spring trying to break through the ground.

"Huh!"

In the snow pack, which was shaking more and more violently, a jade hand bone that was enough to make Snow ashamed suddenly poked out......
