In the early morning, the fiery red sun slowly rose from the east, with a warm sunshine, lightly sprinkled on the land; On an official road outside Chenjia Town, an old man with a somewhat rickety body carried a bag on his back, holding a cane in one hand, and the other old hand held the slender little hand of the little girl beside him.

"Grandpa, how long are we going to go?" After leaving the inn and saying goodbye to Miss Jiang and the others, he has also been walking for a while, Xu Siyu has a medicine box that is not very heavy on his shoulder, and he picks up the little dog who is also tired of walking, and asks Gong Qingyang beside him.

"Are you tired of walking? When you are tired, you can rest, there is still a way to go, and there is still some time to walk. ”

Xu Siyu shook his head: "I'm not tired." ”

The two chatted while hurrying on the road, and when they were tired, they sat on the stones by the side of the road to rest, and continued to hurry; At this time, some pedestrians who were also in a hurry could be seen on the official road, Xu Siyu ate the dry food in her hand, and asked Gong Qingyang these strange questions, then she suddenly saw a person lying on the side of the road in front of her, and suddenly stopped.

Suddenly stopped, Gong Qingyang was a little puzzled, with Xu Siyu's gaze, his eyes were not very good, he squinted, he also saw it, and then walked up quickly, Xu Siyu also followed.

As the two approached, their eyes became clearer, and there was a man who looked to be in his forties, with no clothes on his body, naked, only a pair of pants, his head tilted to one side, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Seeing this scene, Xu Siyu grabbed the corner of Gong Qingyang's shirt in fear and hid behind him, a little afraid to watch.

Gong Qingyang turned around and comforted her, then walked over to the middle-aged man who fell to the ground, and looked at the person, Gong Qingyang turned the person's head. Seeing that face, Xu Siyu suddenly took a few steps back in fright, and finally sat down on the ground.

Xu Siyu looked at the face with fear, and what entered her eyes was a very thin and dry face, and the cheeks of the face were even more sunken, as if there was no flesh, just a layer of skin, and the eye sockets were also sunken, showing that under the thin eyelids, the eyeballs were very obvious, the mouth was slightly open, and there was almost no blood on the lips..... Xu Siyu glanced at it and didn't dare to look at it.

Gong Qingyang glanced at this person and knew that he was also dead, but as a doctor, he still reached out and habitually checked the pulse of the person's neck, as he expected, this person died, obviously he should have been starved to death.

"Want Want."

Sighing softly, Gong Qingyang stood up, pulled Xu Siyu and continued to walk forward, the puppy was behind the two, his nose sniffed beside the man's corpse, and then barked twice and followed the two.

Putting down and holding the puppy in her arms, Xu Siyu still couldn't help but glance at the almost naked man's corpse, although the scene just now was in her heart, she was still afraid, but she still had some doubts and asked Gong Qingyang beside her: "Grandpa.... That..... Why is that man undressed....?"

Gong Qingyang was stunned, but he didn't know how to answer this little girl who didn't know anything. Obviously, after the man died, the clothes on his body were taken away by passers-by, or the man was so hungry that he couldn't walk, and fell on the road, and he was not dead for a while, and the passers-by forced the clothes on his body and finally died.....

After opening his mouth, Gong Qingyang still said, "Someone took it away..."

"......." Hearing this, Xu Siyu didn't know what to say for a while.

The atmosphere was a little quiet for a while, Xu Siyu didn't have as many questions as before, and there were a lot fewer words, but he couldn't help but grasp a little bit when Gong Qingyang held his hand....

After almost a day's journey, when it was dark, he finally arrived at a town, found an inn and sat down, while having dinner, Xu Siyu was still remembering the dead man he met today, some lingering, and when he was sleeping, he hugged Gong Qingyang's arm; Apparently left some shadows in my heart.

On the second day, after the two finished breakfast, Gong Qingyang added some dry food and continued to hurry with Xu Siyu.

"Grandpa, are there any wolves at night?" Xu Siyu raised her head and looked at Gong Qingyang, she heard Gong Qingyang say that she was going to spend the night in the mountains and forests tonight, so she asked with some concern.

Gong Qingyang shook his head, knowing that this little girl was timid, and smiled and comforted: "No, don't worry, girl." ”

"That'..... Then we can still take a boat for a long time!? Looking at the smile on Gong Qingyang's old face, Xu Siyu was still a little worried, and asked again.

"Tomorrow I will travel for another day, and the day after tomorrow I will almost be in Lincheng, and I can take the boat."

"Oh..."Xu Siyu replied softly.

After a day's journey, at night, Gong Qingyang looked for it, but didn't find any caves, so he had to make do under a slightly larger tree; Xu Siyu was scared in Gong Qingyang's arms, a blanket should be on the two of them, and there were constantly some strange sounds in the mountains and forests, which came into Xu Siyu's ears, making her very scared, in fact, a large part of it was psychological.

Gong Qingyang was a little helpless, and Xu Siyu spent a long time in this fear before he gradually fell asleep.

In the early morning, the birds in the mountains and forests were chirping, Xu Siyu woke up slowly, opened his hazy eyes, but found that Gong Qingyang had already woken up and looked at himself, and said with a smile: "Wake up?" ”

"Hmm...."

After the two of them sat and ate the dry food they brought, they continued to hurry, but after walking for long, they saw a naked corpse again, and unlike the previous corpse, this corpse also began to decompose, with a stench coming out, it stinks, and it is a woman.

Passing by the corpse, Xu Siyu didn't dare to look at it after a glance, the shadow in his heart slowly pressed down, but now he resurfaced in his heart...

Gong Qingyang had to sigh and explain: "Now that the country is in the autumn of war, the people are displaced, the people are struggling, the bandits are rioting, and now there will be refugees everywhere, such things will not be uncommon......

Xu Siyu pursed his lips, but he didn't speak, and for a moment he remembered the group of bandits who slaughtered his village.....

After walking along the road for a long time, the two of them took a break when they were tired, rested enough, and continued to walk forward, but they didn't walk for long, but they stopped....

On the side of the road ahead, there was a person crawling, and it seemed that he was still moving! Gong Qingyang walked up quickly, came to the man, took his body and hurriedly checked, found that there was still rescue, turned his head to Xu Siyu and said, "Girl, bring water!" ”

Xu Siyu was stunned when he heard this, then came back to his senses, hurriedly took out the kettle, and handed it over; Gong Qingyang took the kettle, helped the man up, put the kettle to the man's dry lips, and fed him slowly.

The cool water slowly flowed into his mouth, and the man suddenly became a little conscious, holding the kettle in both hands, drinking it in one gulp, putting down the kettle, raising his head weakly, and looking at the old man in front of him.

Gong Qingyang knew that he was hungry, so he took out some dry food for him, and when the man saw that the dry food was snatched up, he gobbled it up, and most of the dry food was wiped out in two clicks, and he took the kettle and drank a few sips, and continued to eat.

After a while, the man finally stopped eating, looking at the only half of the dry food that was also eaten, Xu Siyu asked out loud: "The dry food has been eaten by him, grandpa, what should we do..."

Hearing the inquiry, Gong Qingyang turned his head and comforted: "It's okay, girl, I'll be in Lincheng soon." ”

The man hurriedly put down the food in his hand, ate some dry food, had some strength, and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Gong Qingyang to thank him.

"Thank you for saving your life!"

"Thank you for your life-saving grace, I will definitely remember it in my heart! I will definitely repay it in the future! ”

.......

Looking at the man who kept kowtowing and thanking him, looking at that face, Xu Siyu hid behind Gong Qingyang in fear; The man had some sharp-beaked monkey gills, giving people the feeling of thief eyebrows and rat eyes.

Gong Qingyang hurriedly helped the man up: "Hurry up, get up!" ”

The man was helped up by Gong Qingyang, and said with some embarrassment: "Engong, your dry food has also been eaten so much by me, I'm really embarrassed, dare to ask Engongzun's surname, where is the person, and he will definitely repay today's life-saving grace in the future." ”

"It's okay, the rest of the dry food from these dry foods, you can take it, my granddaughter and I will be in Lincheng soon, and there is no need for the report, I am Sheng Tian, a person from Pingyang." Gong Qingyang said with a smile, but did not report his name.

Hearing this, the man also noticed the little girl hiding behind Gong Qingyang, Xu Siyu looked at the man with some thief eyebrows and eyes looking at him, and he was so scared that he didn't dare to come out.

The man also knew what he looked like, smiled awkwardly, and then knelt down and kowtowed to Gong Qingyang again, and was helped up by Gong Qingyang, and his eyes also had heavy tears.... He knew that he really met a good person this time and saved his life, without asking for anything in return, and he didn't even say his name....

Because at this moment on the road, in the wilderness, the man is also going to Lincheng, and the two of them are talking while walking; And Xu Siyu was a little scared whenever he saw that face with a little thief's eyebrows, and his little hand grabbed Gong Qingyang's hand tightly.

After some conversations, Gong Qingyang learned about the man, the man's name is Wang Shiming, a businessman, because he was intercepted by the bandits, robbed the goods, almost killed the bandits, escaped, and went to Lincheng, wanted to join a friend of his, and on the way, because there was no dry food, he finally fainted on the side of the road.

In the afternoon, he arrived at Lincheng, and at the time of separation, Wang Shiming knelt down and kowtowed in front of Gong Qingyang again before leaving.

Looking at Wang Shiming's distant back, Xu Siyu pursed his lips, looked up at Gong Qingyang beside him, and found that he still had a smile on his face, and asked with some doubts: "Grandpa... That man doesn't look like a good person, why did you save him? ”

Gong Qingyang was stunned, and said a little seriously: "Girl, who told you that good looks are good people?" According to your reasoning, if you don't look good, you're a bad person, right? ”

"Grandpa, I know....." Xu Siyu lowered his head and pursed his lips again, his voice was a little small.

Gong Qingyang retracted the seriousness on his face, slowly lowered his body, looked at Xu Siyu who lowered his head, and said softly: "Girl, you can't just look at people's appearance, you know?" ”

"Oh...... Siyu, got it...."
