"Daddy and Auntie are gone, sister, you are obedient, eat well, don't leave your brother alone, okay?" He said in a rambling manner, but the little girl in his arms didn't react at all, and her eyes widened.
Dugu Xingqian looked at it, inexplicably sour, she is also a person with an elder brother now, if one day her brothers are also sad for her like a little boy, she thinks she will die of sadness.
She didn't know what kind of despair a person who was starved to death experienced before her death.
It's still a little girl of that age.
In her world, such a big child should go to kindergarten carefree under the care of his parents.
Under the feudal imperial power, human life is as cheap as mustard, and even she, the queen mother, is worried about the loss of her head at any time, let alone ordinary civilians.
She crouched down, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, she saw the little boy hugging his sister vigilantly.
Then, he reluctantly let go of his hand, let go of the little girl, and turned to kowtow heavily to Dugu Xingqi, "Brother, you are a doctor, can you save my sister?" She hasn't eaten for three days, please save her, I can make you a cow or a horse. ”
This one knocked his head extremely hard, his forehead was broken, and blood leached out, flowing down his cheeks into his neck socket, looking shocking.
"Please."
As he spoke, he wanted to kowtow to Dugu Xingqi again, but Dugu Xingqi pulled him up, "Your sister is no longer here." ”
This kind of talk is too cruel for a little boy of seven or eight years old.
"Nope! Sister she just ...... It's just ......," the little boy said, crying silently.
In fact, he knows very well that his sister, like his father, has left him forever.
But he didn't want to accept this fact, his sister was gone, and he would be alone in this world from now on.
No one loved him, and there was no one he loved, so he could only wait to die in loneliness.
"If only I ...... If she had gotten a sugar gourd earlier, she wouldn't have ...... It's not going to be gone...... I'm not a good brother and I didn't take good care of her. ”
He thought that as long as he found the sugar gourd she liked to eat, she would come back to life.
His tiny body trembled, his lips were bitten with blood, tears were dry, and he was so sad that he was terribly sad.
Dugu Xingqian looked at his appearance, held the little boy in his arms distressedly, and gently rubbed his head, "Although she is not in this world, she goes to another place to live happily, where there is no hunger, no pain, and no water, you have to be happy for her." ”
There is a pure spirit on the little girl's corpse, which is not contaminated by those resentments in Lizhou, and she does not look at it because she can't let go of her brother.
Dugu Xingqi said, and reached out to caress the little girl's face gently, and saw that the little girl's eyes were gently closed, and the expression on her face became very serene.
The little boy watched that from the day his sister stopped eating, he wanted her to close her eyes and sleep, but she couldn't close her eyes.
Now that the brother touched her gently, she closed her eyes.
In the eyes of the little boy, the image of Dugu Xingqi suddenly became extremely great.
Younger sister...... Did you really go to another place and live happily?
Dugu Xingqi let go of the little boy, detained the little girl's spirit from the corpse, and pinched a talisman to protect her spirit.
Sitting cross-legged, reciting a mantra devoutly, only to see the little girl's spirit emitting a burst of pure white light, under the protection of her charm, the little girl will enter the reincarnation safely, and there will be a good home in the next life.
The little boy looked up, as if he saw a bright light.
"Brother, can you take me to my sister?" He asked Dugu Xingqi.
"Someday you'll go, not now." Dugu Xingqian shook his head, picked up the little girl's body, and prepared to find a place to bury her.
Only when you are in the earth can the soul rest completely.
The little boy no longer stopped her, but just followed her.
When Dugu Xingqi was digging a pit, he was digging the soil with his bare hands next to him, his hands were rubbed off the skin, and he didn't say a word when he was bleeding.
After burying the little girl, it was already completely dark.
The little boy kowtowed in front of the grave, and put the rotten apple in front of the grave, "Sister, when I go to you in the future, I will definitely find you, and you must not forget me." ”
It's spring now, and the night wind in Lizhou is a little colder than the winter night in the imperial capital.
The wind was whining, as if there were thousands of ghosts screaming in their ears.
The boy seemed to be used to it, he followed Dugu Xingqi, and then said, "Is my brother here to find Lord Oa!" ”
"Hmm." Dugu Xingqi nodded, she led the horse, put the little boy on horseback, and walked in the direction of the broken temple.
"Lord Snake is not good, don't go to him." The little boy sat on the horse's back and shook his head at her.
"Huh? What do you know? Dugu Xingqi was a little surprised, she came to Lizhou on the way, heard a lot of praise to the king of the dragon, heard that when the Li River burst the embankment, the king of the dragon was even more desperate, to block the embankment with his body, if it was not forcibly pulled back by his subordinates, it is estimated that the king is gone.
I even heard that in order to relieve the victims, King Yu opened a granary in Lizhou, which was distributed on time every day, and even his own house was a clear porridge with a few grains of clear rice.
In the mouths of the people, he is definitely a good prince.
Such a well-received prince, in the mouth of a boy, why is it not good?
"One night I went to the palace of the king of the dragon to steal food for my sister, and I saw him eating meat, eating a lot of raw meat, and he lied to us." The little boy said, "He's a lying adult. ”
Dugu Xing's brows frowned slightly, and after thinking about it, she had already returned to the temple with the little boy.
The little boy, Huai'an, is a villager in Wugu Village, lower reaches of the Li River, where the river burst its banks and flooded his village, and he and his sister escaped and have been begging for a living in the city of Lizhou for the past few days.
The child hadn't eaten a full meal for several days, had multiple wounds on his body, and was almost on the verge of collapse with his sister now dead.
Dugu Xingqi helped him treat his wounds, applied medicine, and took off the cloak on his body to use as a quilt for him.
In the second half of the night, the wind outside blew even harder.
As if something was about to break in, Dugu Xingqi left the black-haired chicken in the broken temple and let it guard Xiao Huai'an.
She took out a few talismans, pasted them around the ruined temple, and finally glanced at the statue of the goddess with the head of the snake body, and straightened her, and by the way, she helped her remove the cobwebs on her body, and flicked the ashes on the statue with her sleeve, and then she took the nightmare to the palace of the king again.
As soon as she stepped out of the ruined temple, the statue of the goddess moved slightly.
