Rainy season. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The rain came as soon as it came, and the sky, which had just been scattered with sunshine, was suddenly shrouded in dark and dreary clouds, and the rain poured down wildly, and the residents of the slums, who were thinking of coming out to do activities, immediately hid back in their houses in fear, for fear of being splashed by the rain.

Rainwater accumulated on the streets and spread quickly through the slums, and some low-lying slum houses had been flooded to the thresholds by rainwater, and the drainage system, which had not been repaired, had no effect at this moment, and in a moment, the entire outer wall of the slum had become a vast ocean.

In the Meishan Orphanage.

At the door of the house, a woman who looked to be in her thirties led a dozen children between the ages of seven and eight, eleven or twelve, hurriedly carrying sandbags that had already been made and piled them up on the threshold to block the surging rainwater.

"Dudian, don't come and help!"

"It's useless to call him, he's a fool."

"It's infuriating!"

Several boys were sweating profusely while holding sandbags, and they were a little angry when they saw a little boy standing quietly in front of the window not far away, but they knew that it was useless to say, so they could only grit their teeth and continue to send the sandbags in their hands to the door and put them on the door.

The little boy in front of the window looked about seven or eight years old, thin and weak, but his size was similar to that of other eleven or twelve-year-old children, and the most conspicuous thing was his complexion, which was extremely fair, even a little sickly pale, and compared with other people's darkened and dirty skin exposed to strong light and ultraviolet rays, which made many children envious.

But Du Di sighed in peace of mind, this is the sequelae caused by the freezer, although he has been out of the freezer for more than three months, his body has not recovered, the whole body can not lift the energy, in the words of modern medicine, it is myasthenia.

It's hard to just stand.

Not to mention carrying sandbags to keep the rain out.

However, such a situation can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune. After all, when the disaster spread to Huaxia, the scientific research institute had just made the first freezer, and before it had time to enter the experimental stage, no one knew whether there would be such and such failures, and it was already a small miracle that he could sleep intact in the freezer for three hundred years.

It's just that he doesn't feel happy.

He did survive, but his parents and sister, who made the freezer, stayed, facing the terrible disaster, even if they survived very, very lucky, now three hundred years later, they have long been buried in the dust.

In this vast world, he no longer has half of his relatives, and he will face this world alone, lonely.

He did not despair, although he was sad and sad, but his parents gave him two lives, he would never allow himself to be decadent, he not only had to live well, but also to live proudly, and also to make his parents and sister who had passed away proud of himself!!

Fortunately, God finally sheltered the human race, when he just crawled out of the freezer, he originally thought that he was the only one left on the earth today, a life, until he walked out of the garbage dump where the freezer was buried, only to find that the human race was not extinct, and it seems that a few people survived the disaster, and after three hundred years of reproduction and development, it has a good scale.

It is a pity that the civilization and technology of 300 years ago have been completely destroyed by the disaster, and what he has seen and heard during this period of time has not seen and heard any objects that symbolize the technology of the old era, and mankind has not only lost the power to conquer this planet, but also has lived a very difficult life.

As his thoughts drifted, the storm outside the window gradually stopped somehow.

Seeing that the water level in front of the threshold had stopped rising, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had experienced a protracted fierce battle, and everyone felt exhausted. At this time, the middle-aged woman looked at the sky, saw that the dark clouds gradually melted a little, revealing a cloudy skylight, and knew that it would not fall again for a while, so she immediately said: "I'm ready to go to the canteen to eat, and I wear wax and straw shoes." ”

When all the children heard the word "eat", their eyes lit up, and their previous tiredness was swept away, and they went back to their rooms to put on wax straw shoes and lined up in a row.

"Dean, let's get ready to put on our shoes and get ready for dinner." At this time, a voice at the back of the line called out to Dudian, who spoke to a boy of seven or eight years old, who, as if remembering something, patted his head, stepped forward and patted Dudian on the shoulder, gesturing with one hand and pointing in the direction of the cafeteria, but the sleeve of the other arm was empty.

Dudian remembered him, his name was Barton, and he was one of the few children in the hospital who had good intentions towards him, which probably had something to do with him, three hundred years of changes, the language had long been renovated, and when he first came to the orphanage, he could neither understand what others said nor speak their language, so he could only be silent, and over time, everyone thought he was a little stupid, and he might have a problem with his IQ.

So naturally, he was divided into a faction of deformities like Barton.

The children in the orphanage are divided into two factions, one is able-bodied and abandoned by their parents, and the other is physically deformed and abandoned by their parents.

Dudian nodded in understanding, and followed Barton to the back of the line. Barton just wanted to ask Du Dian to change into straw shoes first, but he inadvertently looked down, but found that Du Dian was already wearing a pair of light green high shoes under his trouser legs, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

In this world, plastic has not yet been invented, and the shoes and clothing made of wax have become the most commonly used rain gear, which is a natural mutated grass, which can be seen everywhere, with large leaves and a slightly raised wax layer on the surface that can effectively block radiation rain, and has become a must-have item for every household.

The crowd cautiously walked along a half-meter-high path paved with narrow stones in front of the threshold, the rain only reaching the ankles, and if they accidentally fell into the water, even the strongest adults would inevitably fall seriously ill.

When they arrived at the cafeteria, everyone immediately began to grab seats, and the limited seats were immediately swept away by the able-bodied children in front, Dudian and Barton and the other children with physical deformities had long been accustomed to, and came to the back corner, where there were several piles of stones, which were their dining tables.

"I heard that among the adopters who came this time, there were doctors and wall builders."

"Aunt Dai has said, let's seize this opportunity and behave well."

"If I can be adopted by a doctor, I am so happy."

"I'd rather be adopted by the wallbuilders, and maybe I might be able to climb the Sylvia wall and see the world beyond it."

Before the meal was delivered, Barton whispered to a few other children, none of whom looked normal because they either had fewer ears or half of their faces were covered in tiny bumps.

When Dudian heard their words, his eyes flashed and he was silent.

"It's a pity that Dean's brain is not good, otherwise with Dean's appearance and body, he will definitely be chosen by those people." After chatting for a while, Barton suddenly sighed, glanced at Dudian, and said with some regret.

The other children looked at Du Di'an, who was unresponsive, and all shook their heads and sighed.

They had already agreed that whoever was adopted would do their best to come back and help the rest, and in terms of appearance alone, Dudian was undoubtedly the most likely to be adopted, but there was something wrong with his brain, but it was more serious than his body, such as the child with half of his face full of flesh bumps, although he looked scary, but his hands and feet were sound, his IQ was normal, and he could at least do coolies and find a job.

"Hmph, a bunch of crippled things, and they want to compete with us for the opportunity to adopt." At this time, the thin child in a nearby seat heard the words of Barton and the others, and said with a cold snort and contempt.

His words immediately attracted the attention of the others, and for a while, the eyes of disdain and disgust fell on Dudian, Barton, and the others.

Compared with deformed children, these able-bodied but abandoned people have a heavier anger in their hearts.

Du Dian glanced at these people lightly and didn't say anything, although he was also a child, he had seen a lot of things, and there was a depth in his heart that many adults did not have.

And this picture of his, in the eyes of these people, is "stupid".

"Look at this fool, he can't even understand the scolding."

"Guy with a crippled head, no wonder he was abandoned!"

"Still want to be adopted? Wait until you are thirteen years old to be thrown into the mines! ”

These children do not hide their contempt and disgust in the slightest, and take pleasure in it.

At this time, the food was delivered, and the middle-aged woman who brought them over shouted softly: "Be quiet, don't you want to eat?" ”

Hearing this, these children's arrogance was reined in, and their faces were full of innocence, as if nothing had happened just now.

……

Next.

Silver-gray clouds gradually unfurled, and the sun shone down into the slums.

During the rainy season, it is a rare sunny day.

It just so happens that today is also a long-awaited big day for the children of Meishan Orphanage - Adoption Day!

All the families who made an appointment in advance rushed to the orphanage on this day to choose their satisfied children.

Early in the morning, Du Dian got up on time, although there is no alarm clock in this world, but his biological clock has never gone wrong, after getting up, he finished tidying up the bedding, washed his face with simple filtered well water, picked up another set of whitened coarse cloth clothes next to the pillow, and was just about to change into it, when he suddenly pinched a soft small ball inside, and when he felt it, he saw that it was a crumpled purple handkerchief.

Du Dian was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but think of the little girl who led him to this orphanage in that cold night, but unfortunately it was dark and he couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly.

There was still a residue of blackness left by wiping his face on the handkerchief, which could not be washed.

After a moment of silence, Dudian put the handkerchief in his arms, then changed his clothes and ran to the open space outside the orphanage.

Although he has only one parent in his heart, he has to let himself be adopted as soon as possible, if the child is not adopted by the age of thirteen, he will be abandoned by the orphanage and sent to the mine controlled by the Meishan Coal Miner Chamber of Commerce behind the Meishan orphanage, and become a permanent free laborer, until he dies of exhaustion and old age, and will never have a chance to see the light of day again.

Like Dudian, on this day, all the children in the orphanage "dressed up" to wash themselves clean, and put on clothes that they were reluctant to wear for a long time, and these clothes were coarse cloth clothes that were distributed when they first entered the orphanage.

If your body smells, no one wants to come near you.

These were the words that Aunt Dai had admonished them.

As far as the eye could see, in front of the rain-soaked sand in front of the orphanage, stood a large group of children, but faintly divided into two camps, the able-bodied and the deformed.

After all the children were standing, the adults who came to adopt, led by Aunt Dai and the other caretakers of the orphanage, came to the children and looked at the group of orphans who might be their own children.

"Hello uncle and aunt."

Under Aunt Dai's teaching, except for Du Dian and a few other deformed people who couldn't speak, the other children all shouted obediently, their dark eyes were full of innocence, and their faces were full of longing and hope to meet the adults.

Soon, the thin but tall Du Dian in the crowd became the target of all the adults' attention, his pale complexion was too eye-catching, and his temperament was completely different from the children around him, and the adults couldn't tell what was the difference, they just felt that the child was very calm, there was a kind of nobility, yes, it was extravagance.

This surprised many adults, who did not expect that there would be such outstanding seedlings in the orphanage in the slums.

For a while, many adults were moved.
