In Search of Old Bitter Tears (6)

I looked at the eldest sister and really felt useless, and I couldn't do anything about it when I watched her so miserable. I couldn't help but reach out, I wanted to comfort her, even if it was just to help her touch her wound. But my hand hung in the air and stopped, and I heard Nezha calling "sister":

"Sister, sister, sister......"

The sound of "sister" entered my ears, and the appearance of Nezha's death began to reappear in my mind, Nezha said:

"Sister, I'm in so much pain. Sister, help me. Sister, I hate you, you just want to get my tears, you don't treat me as your brother at all. Sister ......"

I looked at Nezha's appearance and shook my head frantically and said:

"No, Nezha, my sister treats you as a younger brother, and my sister will save you immediately."

I rushed forward to save Nezha and stop him from committing suicide. But the head of Nezha's fire-tipped spear suddenly fell and stabbed at me, I looked at Nezha with a frightened face, and instinctively blocked it with my hand, but this block flew Nezha's bullet out a long way. I looked at my hand in disbelief, and Nezha's angry voice came:

"You still lied to me, you killed me, you made me betray my relatives in order to get my tears, and now you still want to kill me, you are so vicious."

"I didn't."

I closed my eyes and shouted, I heard my echo in the cave, and when I opened my eyes, I found that there was no Nezha around, just I had entered my own nightmare. I looked at the eldest sister, and finally turned around and left silently, I thought:

"It's better to wait, let's not intersect, forget it."

I hid into the mountains and decided to wait for the eldest sister to cry before coming out, and then get the old bitter tears and leave directly. I feel like I've planned well and I feel like it's the best option. I think...... I still shouldn't have left the eldest sister, I turned around and went back to the eldest sister.

"Eldest sister, don't be sad, I'll help you apply some medicine, you bear with it, it won't hurt soon."

The eldest sister looked at me with surprise in her eyes.

"Girl, you are the god of the mountain, please save my son and save our village."

The eldest sister knelt down as she spoke, and I quickly helped her up.

"Big sister, I'm not a mountain god, get up quickly."

"Girl, the one who lives in this sinkhole is the mountain god, I know that you are the mountain god, and I won't get up if you don't promise to save the people in our village."

Faced with the eldest sister like this, I could only reluctantly promise her first:

"Big sister, I promise you, you get up first."

Seeing that I agreed, the eldest sister said excitedly:

"Thank you to the mountain god, thank you to the mountain god, thank you to the mountain god, I am willing to serve the mountain god forever."

The elder sister's words made me a little messy, and I felt that something was not quite right.

"Eldest sister, you said that you are willing to serve the mountain god forever, you said that you volunteered to serve the mountain god, didn't you leave it behind by your son?"

The eldest sister looked at me embarrassedly.

"Mountain God, it was me who discussed with my son that I would come to serve the mountain god, and my son was worried that the mountain god did not want to see me, so he applied this bitter plan, and asked the mountain god not to blame and save the people in our village."

"Is that so?"

I wondered, why is it so different from the rhetoric of a thousand years later?

"That's it, if the mountain god thinks that I used a bitter trick to deceive the mountain god, you show up and make you unhappy, please don't blame my son, everything is my idea, if the mountain god you want to punish, please also punish me. As long as you are happy, even if I am cut by a thousand knives, I will never complain, I just ask you to be merciful and save the people in our village after you have lost your anger. ”

Looking at the eldest sister like this, I was even more confused, all this is too far from what I imagined, and it is not the same thing as the eldest sister's statement thousands of years ago, is there something going on in the middle?

"Big sister, can you tell me what's going on?"

Seeing that I frowned, the eldest sister replied tremblingly:

"During the day, my son proposed a way to give up the old and protect the young in the village, but everyone disagreed. I felt that although this method was cruel, it was the only way at present, so I discussed with my son to let me find the mountain god, so I had the bitter plan behind. ”

"But no matter what, your son has abandoned you, and you don't resent his mother?"

Faced with my question, the eldest sister smiled with relief.

"How can there be a mother in the world who resents her son."

The eldest sister said this, which made me feel relieved.

"Eldest sister, don't worry, since I choose to see you, I won't sit idly by. It's almost dawn, so let's take a break and see how this famine is resolved. ”

The eldest sister replied like a warrior:

"Yes, mountain god."

Looking at the eldest sister, I suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"Don't call me the god of the mountain, and neither am I, but as long as you believe me, I will definitely do my best to help you."

The eldest sister is like a devout believer.

"I believe in you, as long as you can save us, you are our mountain god, and our entire village will worship you for generations."

"I can't promise that I will be able to save you, but I will do my best to save you, and I don't need your offerings."

It is said that people fight for a breath of Buddha to receive a stick of incense, but I know that the one who is enshrined is actually bearing people's endless desires. The more incense burns, the more desires, and there have been Buddhas who fell into demons because they couldn't bear these desires, so I said that I don't need to make offerings, and I absolutely mean it.

"I believe that the mountain god will be able to save us, the mountain god is really a good god, do good deeds without asking for anything in return, we will always remember you."

I smiled and thought to myself: How can there be any eternity in this world, Nuwa is the mother of the earth and has been forgotten by people, let alone one of the countless flowers and trees in my heaven and earth?

"Whatever you want."

Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, I took the eldest sister down the mountain, because she was so seriously injured that it was noon when we walked down the mountain. I wanted to send the eldest sister home to recuperate before making plans, so I said to the eldest sister:

"Eldest sister, your injuries are too serious, I'll send you home first."

"No, I want to follow the mountain god."

Seeing that the eldest sister refused, I had to pretend that she would implicate me if she followed me, so I pretended to be embarrassed and said:

"But it is a problem for you to walk like this, and if you follow me, it will delay me in solving the problem of famine."

The eldest sister really got hit and promised to go back to heal her injuries first and then come to me. I took her in the direction of her house, and saw all the young people of the village gathered at her house from a distance.

"What are you doing together?"

One guy said:

"The village chief asked us to gather and said that there was a way to save us all, but we had been waiting for a long time, and the village chief had not come out. Mother-in-law, since you're back, please go and see what's going on. ”

The eldest sister nodded, and I helped her into the house. And these few steps, separated by this wall, caused the tragedy of the eldest sister thousands of years later.
