Chapter 14: Big Brother
Rushing towards the Buddha statue, a tear seeped out of the corner of Xu Siyu's eye, spread out behind her, but crashed into a strong chest and hugged her tightly.
A little dazed, Xu Siyu slowly raised his head, but looked at the handsome face under the light of the fire.
Slightly bowing his head, looking at the little girl with tears in his arms, the man in the long coat pursed his lips, and he didn't know what to say for a while, after all, this kind of thing happened, but let him watch this little girl who was only eleven or twelve years old die, but he couldn't do it, looking at the little girl in his arms, he just shook his head slowly.......
"Let go of me! Let me go! ”
"Let me die...... Let me die......" hugged the little girl who was struggling in his arms tightly, the man in the long coat tilted his head slightly, closed his eyes, and her cry of crying and crying continued to come from his ears, his heart was like colic, and he was silent for a long time.
"Let go of me, let go of me, ......" took a deep breath of cold air, the man in the long coat tightly hugged the little girl who was struggling in his arms, and kept screaming, the corners of her eyes were a little moist, and her heart was touched, and the voiceless cry made him feel painful, and also reminded him of himself at the beginning......
"Let go of me! Let me go! ”
"I'm going to kill them!
"Kill them!"
"Daddy! Mother! Eldest brother! Little sister ......" There was a sudden sharp pain in the arm, and the man in the long coat was pulled back, opened his somewhat moist eyes, looked down, and found that the little girl in his arms bit his arm, and his handsome face unexpectedly leaked a shallow smile, ignored it, and hugged it tightly.
Constantly venting the pain in his heart, gradually Xu Siyu stopped struggling, clinging to his arms and crying bitterly, like falling into the water and grabbing a life-saving straw, crying and catharsis......
Looking at the little girl who was not struggling in his arms and was crying, the man in the long coat let go of his hand, hugged her into his arms again, leaned her on his chest, held her with one hand, and touched her little head comfortingly with the other. Unconsciously, Xu Siyu's hand was also tightly hugging the man.
Touching her head, the man in the long coat quietly hugged her, and after a long time the crying gradually became smaller, and finally found that she was crying and falling asleep.
"Hey, it looks like I can't leave tonight!" Looking at the little girl who was crying and falling asleep in his arms, tears were still clearly visible on his cheeks, and the man in the long coat sighed lightly and said; Although he sighed, but because of this dissatisfaction and complaining, he was still on the main road, and when he heard the sound coming from the broken temple, he dismounted and rushed into the broken temple.
Looking down at the light blue robe wet by the rain, she couldn't let her hold herself like this all the time, right? The man in the long coat was slightly helpless, so he had to pick up the little girl and put her on the dry weeds by the fire, and at the same time saw her clothes that had been thrown aside.
Standing up, the man in the long coat suddenly fell on a puppy by the fire, the puppy seemed to be injured, and was slowly crawling in the direction of the little girl, the man breathed a sigh of relief, kindly picked up the puppy and put it beside her, and unavoidably, saw her body again.
A little helpless, he got up and walked out of the broken temple, led a white horse outside hiding from the rain under the eaves into the broken temple, stroked the horse's head with his hand, the man in long clothes smiled softly, and said a little apologetically: "Xiaobai, you can rest here tonight, you have been tired for so many days." ”
Looking at the little girl who was disheveled on the ground, with a lot of blood on her body, almost naked, the man in the long dress felt a little sad in his heart, and couldn't take care of her, so he had to treat her as a child, wet the cloth with water, and was ready to wipe her body, and was afraid of waking her up, so he roasted it by the fire, and after it was a little warm, he gently helped her wipe her body....
After wiping her body, the man in the long coat also found that the little girl was not ruined by those two, and she was also grateful for her quick arrival, so she sighed at the moment.
Put the dried laundry on for her, and when you're done. He hung his clothes by the fire and roasted them, looking at the dancing flames, and his thoughts fell into memories.
"Mother!" The sound of Didi Zinan suddenly sounded.
Turning his head, the man in the long coat looked at the little girl who was lying on the dry weeds and shrunk into a ball, hesitated slightly, but still took her into his arms, and the little dog also crawled to his side, leaning on him, his eyes stayed on the delicate and immature cheeks, reached out and touched it, stayed for a while, his eyes turned to the beating flames, and his thoughts were a little confused.
"Mother, why did these people kill us, is my father really dead?"
"Ming'er, remember, these people killed your father, your eldest brother, and your sister!"
.....
In the early morning, the fiery red early sun slowly rises, the rain has stopped, the mountains and forests are filled with a faint mist, after last night's heavy rain washing, the already clear air in the mountains and forests, more fresh, the grass on the side of the road, the leaves are bent and drooping, the tip of the leaves hangs a drop of crystal clear dewdrops, the dewdrops are more brilliant under the light of the early sun.
Xu Siyu slowly opened his eyes, although his eyelids were very heavy, he still opened them slowly, his eyes were a little blurry, and the optical fiber was slightly dazzling, but gradually returned to normal, and what came into his eyes was a very handsome face, which blinked slowly and hazyly, Xu Siyu said in a small voice: "Big brother..."
"Well, wake up!" Hearing the voice, the man in the long coat lowered his head, smiled softly, and said.
Seeing him looking down at himself, Xu Siyu was a little sober at this time, and he also remembered the incident of last night, and clearly knew that it was this person who saved him; found herself lying in his arms, her pretty face was a little red, and she quickly got up and took a few steps back, her little feet were a little numb because she didn't move, so that she couldn't stand on her feet and fell to the ground.
Last night's incident, one scene after another came to mind, his eyes were slightly red with his head down, and tears covered his eyes, Xu Siyu also found that the clothes were neatly worn on his body at this time, obviously he helped him put them on, raised his head, looked at the man in long clothes, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"How's it going, are you alright?" The man in the long coat hurriedly got up, came to Xu Siyu's side, looked at the tearful eyes, and asked worriedly.
Lowering her head, Xu Siyu shook her head slowly, and a teardrop dripped down and landed on her gray and white clothes, showing a mark of tears.
Looking at the tear marks that dripped on her white and gray clothes, the man in the long coat reached out and gently hugged her into his arms, patted her on the back gently, comforted her, and after a while, he let go of the hand holding her, took out a cake in the package behind him, handed it over, smiled and said softly: "Don't cry, are you hungry?" Give it, eat it. ”
Looking at the cake handed over, Xu Siyu looked up at the man in long clothes, then stretched out his little hand to take the cake, lowered his head and took a bite slowly, and ate it, his throat choked, but he couldn't swallow it.
The puppy barked twice and slowly came to her side.
Seeing that she tore off a piece of the cake and fed it to the puppy, the man in the long coat smiled slightly, took out a blue pattern embroidered in his arms, took out a dozen taels of silver, thought about it, worried that she had no place to put the silver, and put a few taels of silver in the money bag, and handed it over: "You take these silver taels, you are inconvenient, wait for me to send you to Chenjia Town." ”
In fact, he didn't have much silver, but he just searched the bodies of the two dead people, and it should be regarded as a small compensation.
Stirring the food in his mouth in unison, looking up at the blue money bag embroidered with patterns handed over, Xu Siyu didn't pick it up for a while, looked at the man in long clothes, bit his lip, hesitated, and finally said in a small voice: "Big brother, I'm ..... I want to follow you...."
The little heart beat slowly, Xu Siyu looked nervously at the handsome face of the man in the long robe, and the little hand holding the cake couldn't help but tighten a little, under this nervous gaze, I saw him slowly shake his head!
There was a pain in the little heart, as if he had been dismissed by a sharp needle, Xu Siyu stared at him unswervingly, but the tears in his eyes were a little thicker, last night's incident... Maybe he dislikes himself? This thought flashed in his heart, pursed his lips, Xu Siyu repeated the sentence just now, but this time his voice was much lower than before.
"I'm going to the front line, it's inconvenient to take you with me, you can take the money." The man in the long coat shook his head again and explained aloud, then grabbed her small hand and placed the money bag in her hand.
He knew, but he couldn't help it, more than one or two of these money could make an ordinary family live for a year, not to mention more than ten taels.
Xu Siyu slowly lowered his head, did not speak, his eyes fell on the little hand, the money bag embroidered with blue patterns, a tear fell again, on the gray and white clothes, showing a mark; A ray of light shone on her body in the dark, but in the blink of an eye, this ray of light was about to disappear, Xu Siyu was a little disheartened, and a little unwillingly, repeating the words just now in a hoarse voice: "Big brother, I want to follow you!" ”
The man in the long coat didn't speak, just stared at the little girl with her head down.
Tears fell again, showing on the gray clothes, the cake held in the little hand was a little deformed because of the excessive force, Xu Siyu choked with a hoarse voice, and the konjac sauce sounded again: "Big brother, I want to follow you!" ”
"Wang..."Feeling the sadness of the owner, the puppy on the side pouted and barked mournfully.
"Big brother, I want to follow you!"
"I want to follow you...."
Gasping lightly, his shoulders were slightly sensational, Xu Siyu with a hoarse voice of crying, once again in this quiet broken temple, konjac sauce sounded.
