Turn back the clock to more than twenty years ago.

In the first year of Qingli, Emperor Jiaxing ascended the throne, and a hundred wastes were waiting to be revived.

In the small county town of Nanling, at the butcher's house on the street, there was a baby's cry.

The midwife opened the curtain, and the butcher with a meaty face hurriedly greeted her.

"Quick, come to the doctor, I'm afraid your lady is not good." The midwife, hurrying to arrive.

Butcher Hu was stunned for a moment, and the eldest son next to him, Juan, hurriedly ran to find the doctor on the corner of the street.

The moon was so desolate that night, and when Juan returned, his father was slumped at the foot of the bed, crying profusely.

On the bed, the woman who had beaten Juan with a poached egg in the morning stared wide, her legs wide open, and the blood spread.

Next to her, the newborn baby, wrapped in clean swaddling clothes, wailed and cried.

Six-year-old Juan realized for the first time that there is only a thin line between life and death.

Hu Niangzi, the second son who was exchanged for his life, looks really gratifying.

It's a pity that Butcher Hu never took a look.

It should be said that since Mrs. Hu left, Butcher Hu has never been sober.

I was drinking every day, and the sign of the Hu family's shop was never hung up again.

Hu Butcher didn't care about his second son, and Juan was worried about his younger brother, so he had to put it by his side.

Six-year-old Juan, who could only cook by himself, choked on the fireworks, wiped his tears, Juan boiled a bowl of porridge, brought it into the room and gave a bowl to the Hu butcher, and made a bowl by himself.

The little brother is well-behaved and ruthless, Juan doesn't get much milk from the neighbors, so he can only feed him with water, and he rarely cries.

As soon as Juan teased, he laughed out loud, and looked very happy.

Juan looked at his younger brother, sucked his fingers, smiled happily, and felt sour: "Just call you Lele." Lele is well-behaved~ Brother hopes that you will grow up happily. ”

Juan hugged his brother in a circle, and his brother smiled even more happily.

Hu Le was three years old, lying on his brother's back and following his brother up the mountain to dig wild vegetables. Juan stuffed a wild fruit for his brother, and Hu Le took a bite and gave it to Juan again.

Hu Le was six years old, standing next to his brother and helping him make a fire and cook. Before the heat was mastered, Hu Le burned a big face, Juan's dishes were also mushy, and the two of them laughed.

Hu Le was nine years old and saw that his brother was going out. "Lele is obedient at home, my brother comes back from work and buys candy for Lele to eat." A fifteen-year-old boy is still thin and weak, but he has shouldered the heavy responsibility of supporting his family.

Little Hu Le ran into the kitchen and burned his father and his own lunch.

On this day, Butcher Hu did not drink for the first time in a long time.

When Hu Butcher stepped into the kitchen, Xiao Hu Le stepped on the small bench to cook.

It's a hot summer, and the villain is not as tall as the butcher's waist, and the sweat is dripping.

"Lele?" Butcher Hu didn't speak for a long time, and his voice was a little hoarse.

Hu Le was startled, and then he saw that it was that person. In the past, he had been huddled in the room, smashing things without giving him wine, and even injured Juan several times, but now, he stood in the doorway, hunched over, his eyes glazed.

Hu Le reflexively held the spatula and blocked it in front of him, "I, I'll cook the rice right away." ”

Juan took a rock sugar gourd and returned home.

In front of the hall, Hu Le shrunk at the table alone, and the smell of rice came from the kitchen.

Hu Le looked at Juan, "Brother! "It's like a chick that sees its mother and cries.

Butcher Hu took a plate of vegetables and walked out of the kitchen.

Juan hadn't seen a father like this in a long time. He shaved off his beard and did not have a wine gourd on his body. For the first time, the gaze became clear, and there were the reflections of Juan and Hu Le in it.

For nine years, the butcher in the prime of life was soaked in nostalgia and remorse day and night, and his hair was gray.

"An'er~" Hu Butcher opened his mouth.

"Alright, let's eat." Juan calmly opened his mouth and handed Hu Le the rock sugar gourd, and Hu Le watched as the last hawthorn was crushed.

"Brother, are you crying?" Hu Le lay in bed at night and remembered.

The next few years were probably the happiest.

Juan slowly changed from a buddy to a second shopkeeper in the city, and also met a woman named Qinggu.

Hu Butcher stopped drinking and often went out to find some small work to do.

Hu Le has long ceased to be greedy for the candy in other people's mouths, and has become a little bully on the streets.

If you stay here, everything may be different.

In the twelfth year of Qingli, Hu Le was twelve years old, and the war situation in the frontier became more and more serious.

In small towns, conscription also began.

Hu Le is young, it doesn't matter, but Juan is just the right age.

Coincidentally, there was an accident in Juan's shop, Juan was beaten so much that he couldn't get out of bed, and Butcher Hu fell into the river on the way back from looking for the big shopkeeper.

When Butcher Hu was fished up, he was clutching a dime of broken silver tightly in his hand. Juan closed the eyes of the butcher Hu, knowing that this was the compensation that the old father had gone to get back.

Hu Le hugged Juan and hurriedly buried Hu Butcher.

At night, Juan coughed, remembering what he had heard in the evening that the monks in the temple were not required to serve in the military.

Thinking of his younger brother, he finally made a decision.

On the second day, Juan told Hu Le, twelve-year-old Hu Le, and asked ignorantly: "Brother, are you still coming back?" ”

Juan touched Hu Le's head: "Brother won't leave you." When hell freezes over. ”

Juan never told Hu Le what it meant to be a monk.

Green Lantern Ancient Temple, scribbled for a lifetime.

Twelve-year-old Hu Le, silently followed Juan, saw him enter the temple, saw his brother's green silk shaved, saw his brother go out, folded his hands with him, and said, "Amitabha, poor monk Mingcheng."

The day after Juan entered the temple, Qinggu came to the door, "Why don't you die!" You father and mother! How much more are you going to hurt your brother? ”

Hu Le ran into the temple, the cat was in the corner of the eaves, and saw his brother sweeping the fallen leaves, ringing the bell to worship the Buddha.

Hu Le wiped his tears and went home.

This temple is a small temple, and Mingcheng often has to go out to make a fortune, so he can go home to see Hu Le.

Every time I go home, I can see Hu Le cleaning the house and cleaning up himself, and he smiles softly and glutinously towards Mingcheng.

So, Mingcheng didn't know how many times after he left, Hu Le was knocked down in the alley, and how many times he saw the woman pull her children and prevent them from approaching this evil star.

Hu Le's fight became more and more ruthless, and occasionally he would think, didn't he say that he would take care of me all his life? Where are you?

Hu Le fought again and fought fiercely, lying in the alley, motionless.

A kick came over him, "Eh, are you still alive?" ”

The master of the small martial arts hall picked up Hu Le, and Hu Le worked in the martial arts hall for three years.

In three years, Ming Cheng went from the small temple to the White Dragon Temple, and it was becoming more and more difficult to go home, Hu Le grew from a thin child to a big man, and became the leader of the martial arts hall.

Mingcheng came to the town again and said goodbye to Hu Le, he was very pleased. "Lele, you have become a man who stands up to the sky. On the day you become your own child, I will come to see you again. ”

Unfortunately, none of them could wait for that day.

The southern part of the small city is close to Qushui, which feeds half of the families in Yangzhou City.

In this year, the newly arrived Taishou-sama presided over the construction of the dam.

This year, during the rainy season, the Qushui Dam collapsed.

This year, Hu Le watched that the peaceful and quiet town became a vast ocean of rivers and seas in an instant.

The eaves of the roofs from which he had sheltered from the rain collapsed.

Those who scolded him and relieved him are dead.

The past is like nothing.

People wake up from their dreams in a split second.

And it's not easy to have a sweet dream.

When Ming Cheng learned the news in the White Dragon Temple, Hu Le was walking towards Yangzhou City with a group of people.

However, Mingcheng didn't know.

Mingcheng said to the abbot, "Presiding, I have to go back." ”

The abbot looked at him: "Amitabha."

Mingcheng went and never came back.

The woman who delivered the news wept and fell down in front of the Buddha.

There was a child kneeling beside her, "Master Mingcheng, in order to save this child, he was swept away by the flood." ”

Hu Le stood aside, and Fa Xiaosi'er next to him spoke: "Big brother, I look at this child, it looks like you when you were a child."

Hu Le swallowed a mouthful of blood.

Looking at King Kong who was glaring angrily, "It's that this world can't tolerate me, it's not that I can't tolerate this world." ”

Hu Le took this group of people and fell into the grass.

In the summer of this year, when Hu Le came to worship, he heard that the great monk was preparing the wing room of the Taishou Mansion.

Hu Le shaved his head and saw the appearance of the monk in the mirror, "Brother, you wait for me." ”
