Due to her grandmother's careful care and her young background, Ling Xia's arm gradually healed after twenty days, and it seemed that the opening ceremony would not be delayed in ten days.

In the past few days, my grandmother has secretly sold a pair of silver bracelets that she has treasured for many years and gold earrings that she has passed down from her mother, but they are only a drop in the bucket for tuition.

Grandma was under a lot of pressure, and her white hair seemed to have a lot more, although she smiled casually in front of Ling Xia, but Ling Xia knew that in places she couldn't see, grandma had shed tears many times. She suddenly hated why she was hurt, why did she make this already difficult family worse?

She should find her own way to pay for school, so what's the matter of letting an old man who has passed her sixtieth birthday run around for herself?

Ling Xia suddenly realized that Ling Dong had been seeing the dragon for the past few days, going out very early in the morning, sometimes not coming back for lunch, and barely arriving home before sunset in the evening. When I asked him where he went, he couldn't come up with a reason.

In the end, it is a child, and it is still natural to like to be crazy outside. Ling Xia and his grandmother didn't care about him and let him go.

However, later, because he didn't pay attention to him at the beginning, later, on a night of thunder and lightning, Ling Dong had an accident.

On that day, as evening approached, the weather, which had been clear, suddenly became cloudy, and in a short time it was dark and the wind was blowing. This is a precursor to an impending storm.

Grandma kept looking out the door and said to herself, "It's about to rain heavily, why doesn't Dongzi know how to come back, where is she crazy?" ”

Ling Xia took an umbrella and said to her grandmother, "Why don't I go and look for it, maybe he forgot the time while playing at someone else's house?" ”

Grandma stopped her: "Hey, don't go, if your wound is wet by the rain, it will be troublesome, Dongzi is not ignorant, she should come back in a while." ”

But they waited for a long time, but they still didn't see Dongzi. At this time, the raindrops the size of beans have begun to fall, and after a while, they will develop into a torrential rain. For a while, only the rumbling sound of water remained between heaven and earth, as spectacular as a waterfall.

Grandma comforted herself vigorously that Fuyuko was just playing at someone else's house and forgot the time, and it would be fine. But I was still lying anxiously in my heart, and I had to go to the door every minute to look around, hoping to see that small figure in my sight in the next second.

The rain was pouring all the time, and the bright lightning and rumbling thunder were terrifying.

After an hour, the torrential rain gradually softened, and the raindrops were no longer so harsh, but gently sprinkled on the earth. The storm was coming to an end, but the rain was still falling.

It was completely dark, but Ling Dong never came back.

They were all panicking, it was so late, how could this kid not come back? Grandma asked Ling Xia to watch the door at home, and she took an umbrella to the house of someone in the village that Ling Dong might go to to look for it.

After Grandma left, Ling Xia anxiously paced around the house, always having a bad feeling in her heart, thinking of Ling Dong's abnormal behavior these days, she felt that it was absolutely impossible for him to forget the time at his friend's house at this time, he was not such an ignorant child.

So, where can he go?

Thinking of this, Ling Xia couldn't sit still any longer, took a large blue plaid cloth umbrella from the house, closed the door, and walked into the rain.

Starting from the west side of the village, she asked one by one if she had seen Ling Dong, but all she got was a negative answer. Ling Xia had never felt so tormented as he did now, every time he entered the door, there was hope, but when he came out, he was full of disappointment......

When she walked to Yao's house at the head of the village, when the enthusiastic Aunt Yao heard that Ling Dong was gone, she patted her thigh and said, "Dongzi hasn't come back yet?" In the past few days, I have often seen him go to the back mountains to collect medicine and sell it to drug dealers, what a capable child! ”

"What? He has been going to the back mountains to collect medicine these days? Ling Xia was taken aback.

Aunt Yao was even more surprised than her: "Don't you know about this? It must have been at least half a month, and I was still wondering how you could bear to let such a young child go to such a dangerous place alone. Although that kind of medicinal herb is very rare and can be sold for a good price, but because the place where it grows is too steep, not many people are willing to do it. ”

Ling Xia "chuckled" in his heart, no wonder, Dongzi has been going out early and returning late these days, and his body is always covered with dirt and blades of grass, so it turns out that he went to collect medicine and sell it for money. Cliff, oh my God, she couldn't help but get dizzy, if something happened to Fuyuko, she wouldn't forgive herself!

After stabilizing her mood, she then asked, "Auntie, do you know where that medicinal herb grows?" I went to look for him, and he didn't come back so late, I'm afraid ......"

Aunt Yao patted her shoulder and comforted: "Xia Xia, don't worry, I asked the two of them to accompany you up the mountain, one of your girls was injured, how can you go to that kind of place alone?" ”

As she spoke, she shouted into the room: "Yao Jian, Yao Kang, hurry up!" ”

After instructing her two sons, she said, "I'll go and tell your grandmother, don't let her worry, it's not easy to get old." Then, I'll mobilize the young men in the village to help you find it! ”

Ling Xia's heart was hot. In the twenty-four years of her previous life, she had been living in a big city with indifferent people, and the friendship between neighbors was limited to nodding and greetings, where would she put herself in the shoes of others and try to help others?

She said thank you, took the flashlight that Aunt Yao enthusiastically gave her, and went up the mountain with the two "brothers" of the Yao family.

Fortunately, the rain has stopped, but because it has just rained, the mountain road is very difficult to walk, and the soles of your feet will slip if you are not careful. Ling Xia had never walked such a difficult road, stepping into the air several times and almost falling.

The Yao brothers asked her to wait several times, but they went to look for it, found someone to meet her again, but she refused. Now Dongzi doesn't know what he's suffering, what are these few steps of mountain road? She gritted her teeth and persevered, trying not to hold the two brothers back.

There was a place where the stones were very steep, and Ling Xia was trying to climb up by herself, but when she met her, she stretched out her hand that had always been dark-skinned, and Yao Kang showed a simple smile at her: "Sister Xia, come, I'll pull you." ”

Ling Xia said thank you.

His palms were wide and warm, and he pulled her up at once. Then Yao Kang quickly let go, and two suspicious blushes appeared on his face, but fortunately, the night was dark enough that no one could notice.

He secretly hoped in his heart how good it would be to have some more such difficult paths.

Ling Xia has been very beautiful since she was a child, and there are not a few young men in the village who secretly like her.

With the help of Yao Kang, after going through many difficulties and dangers, his arms and legs were scraped in several places, and he walked to the edge of the cliff where that precious medicinal material grew. It's just that the lonely cliff is empty, and there is nothing.

Only the mountain wind is whirling.

Ling Xia panicked all of a sudden, she quickly ran to the edge of the cliff, looked down, it was pitch black below, she couldn't see anything, she called out a few times: "Dongzi!" Fuyuko! Where are you? Hurry up and come out, my sister is coming for you! ”

"Fuyuko! Fuyuko ......"

She shouted hoarsely, but no one answered, she was afraid, and tears of fear poured out, and large tears crossed her face.

Yao Jian and Yao Kang also panicked, they hurriedly dragged Ling Xia back from the edge of the cliff, comforting: "Don't be sad first, maybe he got lost on the way back?" Don't panic, we'll look over there, we'll find it! ”
