Chapter 305: A little sad
Lao Zhao's family has six people, a grandmother, and the old couple has two sons and a daughter. The youngest daughter of the Zhao family is called Zhao Youjia, who was the most beautiful girl in the village at that time, and because Lin Hankun and his second brother Zhao Ming are good friends, the relationship with Lin Hankun is also very good.
One night, Lin Hankun and Zhao Ming and Zhao Youjia went to the wild to catch monkeys, but they were surrounded by wolves in the mountains. Fortunately, Lin Hankun practiced martial arts in the city, so he killed the evil wolf, and he was also injured. The three men brought the dead wolf back to the village, and the whole village shared the wolf's meat that day. But because of this, the root of the bane was planted, and all the wolves in the mountains were brought over, and they wailed around the village all day long. They ate all the livestock and poultry in the village, so scared that adults and children did not dare to go out. Lin Hankun also suddenly changed from a hero in the village to a disaster star. Everyone decided to send Lin Hankun away, and they sent him away in front of the wolf, only in this way would the wolf stop.
Zhao Youjia knew the news, like five thunderbolts, but she couldn't stop this scene, and in the end, she made a bold decision, and on the night Lin Hankun left, she came to his room. She said that even if he died, he would be a real man. The next night, everyone carried torches and sent Lin Hankun into the mountain amid the pleading voices of Zhao Youjia and her second brother. Sure enough, everything calmed down, and no more wolves came to Zhaojiacun to make trouble.
After listening to Zhao Ling's words, Luo Yang sat there and didn't speak. It's an ordinary story, but it's as sung and weeping as all the old legends. Person! No more indifferent than a wolf. The wolf was killed, and he knew the revenge of the swarm. But how could a man drive his own kind into the Wolf Mountain? ”。
"Hehe, I'm done, what do you think?" Zhao Ling turned his head and asked Luo Yang, his eyes full of crystal things.
Luo Yang obviously knew that this story was true, but he still shook his head and said: "Don't believe it, a story is a story, of course it won't be true." ”
"Alright! If I don't believe you, there's a next episode! When you hear it, you believe it. Zhao Ling looked at the mountains in the distance, and the corners of his mouth were hooked, as if he was reminiscing about something.
Luo Yang nodded and leaned closer to her: "Really?" Then go ahead and tell me. ”
Later, Lin Hankun walked into the dark Lijiashan in the eyes of everyone. He never came back. ”
"Is there really no wolf on the mountain?"
"Since Lin Hankun left, the wolf has never returned, and the people in the village have gone to see the mountain during the day, but they found a lot of blood stains in the mountain, as well as a few wolf corpses, but they didn't see Lin Hankun's shadow. Zhao Ling had a sad look on his face.
"And then?" Luo Yang couldn't help but ask. Zhao Ling stood there, his eyes looking at the thick cypress tree: "Later, Zhao Youjia wanted to commit suicide several times, but was rescued, but she found out that she was pregnant, and she gave birth to a daughter after a year." ”
Luo Yang's heart sank, and he suddenly felt sad for the woman named Zhao Youjia: "Oh! I see. And later? ”
What happened later was even more unacceptable, because Lin Hankun lived with Zhao Youjia on the night he left, and no measures were taken at that time, which resulted in Zhao Youjia becoming pregnant unmarried, so she was ridiculed by the people in the village, and on the third day of the little girl's birth, she committed suicide by taking poison with hatred. This, this tomb is hers. Zhao Ling pointed to the mound and said.
Luo Yang's heart was sad! "Later."
"Later, the Zhao family left the child behind and the whole family moved away, and there was no news again!"
"Does this story have anything to do with Uncle Lin and your grandfather?!"
"You look so stupid. Isn't your old man Lin today's Lin Hankun? ”
"Ahh I understand, the girl you are talking about is Zhao Ling, is that you? Luo Yang stared at Zhao Ling carefully, trying to find something from her face, but he didn't find anything.
"Hey! Call you stupid, you're really stupid! How could his daughter have the surname Zhao? His daughter's name is Lin Xi. Zhao Ling glanced at Luo Yang.
Luo Yang suddenly realized. This is Xiaoxi's life experience. At this time, a feeling of distress for Lin Xi sprouted in my heart.
Zhao Ling smiled faintly, motioned for Luo Yang to go back, and said as he walked: "Yes, Lin Hankun is not dead, he has returned to Nanwan." He didn't write until Lin Xi was three years old, and Zhao Youjia's parents moved away with the whole family, leaving only Lin Xi because they didn't want this disaster. I was adopted by my grandfather. After Lin Hankun sent the letter, my grandfather explained the situation in detail. Lin Hankun personally picked up the child and never saw each other since. ”
accidentally got this story and inadvertently knew Lin Xi's life experience. My heart was sour, and I suddenly felt as if I owed Lin Xi a lot. I don't know if this girl knows her background, it's hard to say, after all, she was only three years old at that time.
When the two of them returned to Zhao Ling's grandfather's house, the two old men were almost drunk, and Lin Hankun asked Luo Yang to accompany him to a place to worship. He knows where to go without asking. silently took down the paper money and incense from the car, and accompanied by the old Zhao family, came to Zhao Youjia's grave to pay respects.
The sky was gloomy, the autumn wind was bleak, and the graves in the mountains and forests were in front of them. Luo Yang's heart was extremely heavy, Lin Xi, a little woman, was unstoppable, but she had such a sad legend. Old Man Lin is kind and kind-eyed, but he has such a catastrophe of birth and death. I wonder how he got out of this ravine that night? Under the moonlit night, in the silent valley, among the wolves, a lonely man. What a terrible and desolate scene it should be. Luo Yang looked at the orange flame of the paper money. But this cold scene appeared in front of me.
It is not only Lin Hankun who makes people feel sad and heroic, but also the woman named Zhao Youjia, that is, Lin Xi's mother, she may never have thought of marrying Lin Hankun, she may never have thought of having a child. never thought that Lin Hankun would appear in front of her grave in an old state decades later. In the whole story, he is the saddest and most bleak.
When I returned to Zhao Ling's house, it was already afternoon. All the people fell silent. Old man Lin took out a check, how much money was on it Luo Yang didn't look at it, Lin Hankun personally handed it to the old man of the Zhao family. The old man of the Zhao family repeatedly refused, but he still couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the old man Lin, so he had to accept it.
They also got a lot of things, all of which were native products of the generation of Zhaojia Village. The old man of the Zhao family kept it again and again, but they still embarked on the road back to Dragon City. Because of other people's past, Luo Yang also became heavy, so he didn't go to Han Shishi. Old Man Lin looked very tired. Half lying in the car, squinting and resting. After a while, he suddenly stood up; "Luo Yang, do you know who we worship?"
"I know, Zhao Ling told me."
The old man was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly, and then said, "Oh, that's good. Remember, don't tell Xiao Xi these things when you go back, although there are some incomplete memories in her memory, but you can't let her know, you can't let her know, it's not good to know! ”
"Don't worry, I won't tell her these things. It's just, it's just that I have some doubts. ”
"Ask!" The old man closed his eyes slightly, and there was a cloudy tear in the corner of his eye.
"What happened that night? How do you always get out of that hollow? After asking, Luo Yang regretted it a little. This topic is somewhat sensitive, and it may bring back many memories that the elderly do not want to remember.
Old Man Lin pondered for a moment, paused, and stood up.
"I'll never forget that night."
The old man reclined there, his eyes looking ahead, and was stunned for a while before he continued: "That night, I went into the mountain without looking back with a lantern, and after entering the mountain, a pack of wolves followed, about a dozen of them. I walked in front, they followed me to the left and right and behind me, I took a step, they followed a step, I took a step back, they took a step back, I was so scared, but it was okay, because Youjia secretly stuffed a kitchen knife in my bag. ”
