The night was dark and the wind was high, and the flames from the scattered pieces of dry wood were pressed by the wind to a point that was about to be extinguished, and the flames the size of peas resisted the invasion of the cold wind.

One moment it was bigger, the other was small, and the surrounding scenery was shrouded in the faint light of fire for a while, and then it was dark again. Nights, infinitely extended in such tug-of-war.

Suddenly, a slender figure appeared in the firelight, and he walked over as if he was busy with something. At this moment, the flames shrank and the figure disappeared.

When the flame burned upright again, the figure reappeared. And there are two more children by his side.

Two smaller figures clasped their hands together in their eyes, their mouths wide open as if they were crying. The slender figure opened and closed its mouth, and its arms flew vigorously, as if it was scolding and intimidating the two children.

The child did not stop crying because of his roar, but cried even harder, and the figure rushed forward viciously. Two small children were picked up and whipped like rag dolls,

As soon as the wind rose, the flames were compressed to a small point, and the figure disappeared again. When the light of the fire shone on the surroundings again, the figure was swinging the knife in his hand, disemboweling the two children.

Blood splattered everywhere. The intestines are infinitely elongated, along with the heart and lungs.

The figure scraped off the skin of the two children and covered his face, looking intoxicated. Time seemed to stand still at this moment

After half a sound, the still black shadow violently threw the human skin on its face, grabbed the corpse on the ground and gnawed wildly. Hideous, bloody, silent in the night.

The flames went out, and the surroundings were in darkness, "pop, pop, pop", and the sparks from the collision of stones and stones flashed in the night.

"Bang, bang, bang", a few more times. The flames danced on the dry wood again, and the light illuminated the surroundings, as well as the bloodstained face of Xing Yi in front of the flames.

"Ahh

Dragging his tired body around to pick up some dead wood and add it to the fire, Xing Yiku sat by the fire and watched the beating flames, at this time, he couldn't sleep.

The cold wind was blowing, and the torture by the fire was hot in front of him and cold in his back, and he wrapped his clothes. Curled beside the fire, at this time, a sudden sound of footsteps sounded around,

Xing Yi suddenly turned around and shouted, "Who", his body rose slightly, and he looked nervously at the dark place where the flames could not shine. The footsteps are getting closer,

Slowly, two small black faces came into Xing Yi's eyes, and it turned out to be the two children. They held a bowl in their hands and looked nervously at Xingyi. At this time, Xing Yi remembered the dream just now.

But he was soon pressed to the bottom of his heart by Xingyi, and he smiled and said, "It's you two who are small, scare me."

Xing Yi beckoned them to come to him, and the two children hesitated for a moment, but walked over with a bowl. Among them, the little boy carefully sent the bowl in his hand to Xing Yi.

Xing Yi looked at the soup of bark and leaves in the bowl, and was slightly stunned, "You can eat, brother...... , my brother is not hungry".

The little boy brought the bowl closer, Xing Yi looked at the little boy's sincere eyes and resolute demeanor, he slowly took the bowl in the boy's hand and took a sip slightly. The little boy raised his hands slightly, signaling that Xingyi had finished eating,

Looking at the boy's hopeful eyes, Xing Yi raised his head and drank the soup, and then chewed the bark carefully. The soup is astringent, and the bark is bitter. But Xingyi's heart is sweet,

Xing Yi gently hugged the two children by his side and asked them some questions, they just gestured "ahhhh

Only then did Xing Yi know that they couldn't speak, so Xing Yi hugged their arms harder, and gently rubbed the cold little faces of the two children with his face.

The dream and the evil thoughts that had bred in his heart were temporarily suppressed by Xingyi's reason to the point of immobility.

It was late at night, looking at the two little dots snuggled next to him, which reminded Xing Yi of countless nights before, "I also snuggled up to my grandfather like this",

Thinking of this, the corners of Xing Yi's mouth hooked up a sweet smile, and a warm feeling lingered in his heart.

At this time, in Xing Yi's heart, a kind and amiable face appeared in his mind, "Now, what is Grandpa doing, has he fallen asleep, or is he sleepless thinking about this grandson in the distance, or...",

Thinking about it like this, Xing Yi's nose was sour, and he felt empty in his heart. A sense of sadness emerged from his heart, and in order to dispel this feeling, Xing Yi tried his best to control himself from thinking about it.

Turning his head to look around at the pitch black, thinking about his current situation, Xing Yi felt that he was in an illusion more than once, but everything he had experienced clearly told him that it was not an illusion.

Listening to the gurgling sound coming from his and his two children's stomachs, watching them gently squirm and swallow saliva in their sleep, hunger haunts them and torments them, "Now, the most important thing is to find food",

During the day, Xingyi turned over the entire village, and even looked for a place more than ten miles away from the village, and there was nothing for people to eat and drink. That's the worst thing. Xing Yi thought, "I'll take them out of here tomorrow, I can't sit still."

Thinking about it, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he slowly fell asleep with half-squinted eyes.

When they woke up the next day, before Xing Yi could say that they wanted to take them away, the two children pulled Xing Yi's two arms and said something "ahhhh

Seeing their eagerness, Xing Yi had no choice but to let them pull him forward. Walking through the collapsed houses, Xing Yi came to a ruin in the easternmost part of the village.

He had been here yesterday, but when he saw the ruins piled up like a hill in front of him, Xing Yi turned around and left. He didn't understand what the two children had brought him here for. It's hard to get something in there.

The children lifted the firewood next to the stone, revealing a stone cave more than half a person high, and they entered it one after another, and with the help of dim light, Xing Yi found that there was a small space inside.

There, a mulberry tree the size of a half zhang was erected there, there were not a few leaves on the tree, and the bark from the trunk to the top of the tree was almost stripped away. On the ground, a pool of yellow water lay quietly.

When the two children saw the mulberry tree and the water, their eyes showed excitement. They pulled Xing Yi to the edge of the water nest and pointed at the water, "Ahhhh Seeing their happy looks, Xing Yi was also happy.

They urged Xingyi to enjoy the water, and Xingyi leaned over to take some of it, leaned over to his chapped lips and sucked it deeply.

Although the water is yellow, it is so sweet and pleasant. It flows through Xingyi's dry body and nourishes Xingyi's heart.

After drinking, Xing Yi showed a sweet smile, and the two children showed their white teeth and smiled stupidly when they saw this.

At this moment, the innocence and simplicity in their hearts are undoubtedly displayed. It's just that Xing Yi smiled, smiling, and there were obvious tears flashing in his eyes.
