Chapter 192: That's You
Mingyue's eyes were firmly fixed on the other straw mat, a pair of frozen almost transparent little feet were exposed, miserable and white, with bruises and purple marks on them, and the small toenails were not complete, all of them were half-cracked two or three toenails.
Mingyue stumbled over, and finally collapsed on the edge of the straw mat. His hand touched the straw mat, wanting to open it, but he didn't dare to open it.
Ming Song's toenails were so untidy, Liu said that they were "blind nails", and ordinary peasant children have these. When Mingyue heard this, she felt indescribably distressed, which showed that Mingsong's life in the Liu family in the first five years was not easy, where is this ordinary "blind toenails", which is obviously caused by lack of nutrition and lack of calcium.
Since then, Mingyue has always tried her best to make food for Mingsong, and originally planned to buy one or two dairy sheep, but before she could put it into action, Song'er was already lying here quietly, and she could no longer call herself a sister softly, and she could no longer compete with Mingyang about who was her sister and who was her brother, and she no longer had to worry about marrying out like Xiaocui's sister......
Mingyue's tears fell in a gargling manner, wetting her fingers, and she was cold.
Mingyue carefully rubbed the white toenails with her hands, trying to smooth the chapped toes, and trying to rub the cold soles of her feet, but the more she rubbed it, the cooler it became, and the more she rubbed it, the more white it became.
Mingyue fell to the ground when she landed, whimpered and cried, and said hoarsely: "Song'er, come back!" My sister will never scold you again, my sister will never beat you again, and my sister will no longer force you to read and write......"
The girl cried so much that she didn't pay attention to the two people who came behind her.
"Uh......" Xiao Mingsong rubbed his aching temples, pulled the man's clothes beside him, and gave the man a look of help, Wei Zhixing shrugged his shoulders, and didn't know how to interrupt the girl's subdued and heartfelt cry.
Song'er coughed lightly and said, "Sister, what you said is true?" Can I practice martial arts? ”
Mingyue stopped crying in surprise, and happily said as she lifted the straw mat and said: "Song'er, as long as you are willing, don't say that you are practicing martial arts, you just want to be the leader of the martial arts alliance, and my sister will also fully support you, so that you can fight invincible opponents all over the world." Sister will wrap up all the paper shops in the city in a while, and burn you with eighteen weapons, and my sister will draw Cheng Yue's five beasts to you first, and you should practice the basic skills first, and when my sister has the silver, I will search for the world's martial arts and burn it to you......"
Listening to the more the girl said, the more unpleasant it became, and the more she said it, the more outrageous it became, Wei Zhixing scolded Ming Song, who couldn't stop him with a happy face, and coughed in a serious way.
Mingyue didn't hear it, just cried and lifted the mat in her hand, showing a boy's face below, a thin face, a swarthy face, although mud and blood stained, but obviously not Song'er, although the same pitiful and sad, but Mingyue's throbbing heart was unconsciously relieved, and the crying instinctively stopped.
His head was dazed as if it was knotted, and Wei Zhixing had no choice but to raise his voice and cough again.
Mingyue turned around consciously and saw Wei Zhixing and Ming Song, who couldn't bear to look at her, flew over like a big peng spreading their wings, hugged Ming Song tightly in his arms, and cried with joy: "Song'er, are you okay?" It's okay, it's okay! ”
nervously stroked Song'er's little thin arm with his hand, and touched the little cheek that had been sunken, and said in his mouth: "If you are thin, you can feel the bones; Why are these lips dry like that? It's all cracked, and I have to wipe it with lard when I go back......"
Song'er was quite disgusted to avoid Mingyue's claws, but she couldn't dodge it, and she couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Sister, your hand just finished picking out the dead man's feet......"
Mingyue was stunned, her hand stopped in mid-air, she didn't touch it, she didn't put it, it took a long time to reflect, she quickly covered Mingsong's eyes, and scolded Wei Zhixing: "Why did you lead him to see the dead man, the little baby should have nightmares at night!" ”
Song'er stopped doing it when she heard this, took Mingyue's hand and took it aside, and said quite unhappily: "Sister, Brother Wei said, I will be a hero who fights violence and peace in the future, and I am a general who gallops on the killing field. ”
Originally, a timid little pine, after meeting Wei Zhixing, turned into such an arrogant look that regarded the world as nothing, and really responded to that sentence, learn from whom, don't learn from Wei Zhixing's stinky face that others owe him 800 yuan.
Mingyue's eyes pondered, stretched out her palm in front of Song'er, deliberately squeezed out a few tears and said, "Song'er, you only have you in your eyes now, Brother Wei, you don't believe your sister's words?" Look, this is what your big brother Wei punished! ”
The girl bit her lower lip, puffed out her cheeks, and looked resentful in her eyes, looking like a resentful woman in eleven boudoirs.
Song'er was distressed and blew on the mottled wound on Mingyue's palm, and said suspiciously: "Sister, is it really Brother Wei?" Isn't he your stepfather? It is not impossible for a stepfather to punish his daughter......"
"Song'er......" Mingyue's eyes had narrowed into a slit, like an angry cat, Song'er obviously received an overwhelming threat, and nodded violently: "My sister and I are of the same heart." ”
After speaking, the six-year-old Xiao Mingsong took Mingyue's hand and walked outside the yamen, throwing Brother Wei, who had just been admired by him, out of the clouds.
Wei Zhixing looked at the back of the girl and Song'er walking away guiltily, her heart was empty and uncomfortable, under this suppressed feeling, but it seemed to reveal a trace of timidity, the girl said the hurt so calmly, perhaps, in her heart, she did not blame herself and resent herself ----as it seemed on the surface, so it might be enough.
Song'er followed Mingyue in the direction of the inn, her little hand gently stroked Mingyue's hand, and asked suspiciously and timidly: "Sister, is it really Brother Wei who injured and hurt?" ”
Mingyue slumped her shoulders, squatted down, looked at Xiao Mingsong with firm eyes, and said innocently: "Has my sister lied to you before?" ”
Mingsong frowned and thought bitterly: "Sometimes it will be ......" just spit out four words, and suddenly remembered the "martial arts" promised by Mingyue just now, Xiao Mingsong covered his mouth in a panic, nodded vigorously and said: "Never, my sister has always been a good word, and it is difficult to chase a dead horse!" You said that Brother Wei made it, and Brother Wei made it, and Brother Wei is a big villain!! ”
Mingyue nodded with satisfaction, and then frowned and said, "It's a horse that's hard to chase, not a dead horse!" Also, I called Wei Zhixing 'father-in-law', why do you call him 'big brother'? ”
Ming Song blinked his eyes, and he didn't figure out why he changed his name for a long time, it seemed that Wei Zhixing asked him to call it that.
Mingyue was no longer embarrassed for Song'er, and seemed to say to herself: "What does it matter if you are called 'Yifu' or 'Father-in-law', or 'Big Brother'?" Left and right will not be related people in the future......"
Ming Song heard it in a fog and said in a low voice: "But, why did he rescue me and hurt so many people?" ”
"What?" Mingyue grabbed the tail of Mingsong's words, and couldn't help asking, talking about the process of Mingsong's rescue, Mingyue didn't know anything at all, and didn't want to ask, but since Mingsong mentioned it, she was no longer nervous and afraid, so she asked through the words.
Mingsong was strong and didn't cry, just tried to recall the tossing and turning of the past two days, telling the story, occasionally encountering tense and dangerous places, his body trembled slightly, but he couldn't bear to show it, which made Mingyue even more distressed.
At dusk that day, after Xiao Mingsong was tired of playing with Mandarin Duck's younger brother at Mandarin Duck's house, he went home alone, and met the lobby brother Yin Mingchao and Uncle Song, Song looked at Ming Song, a disdainful and sarcastic look at the three rooms, Ming Song remembered his sister's instructions on weekdays, so he walked far away from the two, was walking in front, and was suddenly pulled back, and then saw Song's face full of resentment, and then there was a pain in the back of his neck, and he lost consciousness.
After Ming Song woke up again, he was tied to an ox cart, and after a carriage, he was finally locked up in an extremely cold place, with no windows, no sunlight, no water source, and no food.
The leader had a black mask on his face, and his voice looked like he was in his twenties, and he was always playing with a knife flexibly in his hand, so frightened that Ming Song and a dozen male children didn't even dare to look at the person, for fear that the person would be in a bad mood, so they threw the knife over.
An eleven or twelve-year-old boy who arrived before Ming Song, patted his hungry belly, comforted the newcomer Song'er, and said that before he was brought in, nine teenagers were let out, and the masked man treated those teenagers very well.
The young man is extremely envious, although he is not given food or drink here for the time being, but as long as he survives for a few days, he can become rich and soar to the sky.
But things changed dramatically the next morning, and the boy and the three boys who had come with him were taken out after two nights and a day of starvation, and when they came back, there were only three people left, and the three of them were identical, covered in blood, with despair in their eyes, and throbbing all over their bodies, like three soulless corpses lying on the couch.
Song'er asked about the whereabouts of the young man, and the three teenagers shook their heads in horror.
Song'er opened her eyes wide, didn't dare to sleep, didn't dare to make noise, was so hungry that her heart was close to her back, and finally she could only lie on the couch weakly, looking at the black stone beams in a daze.
I don't know how long it took, but it was finally Song'er's turn to be taken out of the stone room and resettled in a brand new room, which was the same as the stone room, the same cold, but the difference was that you could feel a little sunshine.
More than a dozen male babies were placed here, one of which was an eight-year-old baby was taken to a room next door, and after a while, the sound of the baby's screams came, Song'er was so frightened that her legs trembled, and her hands and feet were nervous and she didn't know where to put them, and what came to her mind was the empty eyes and blood all over her body when the three teenagers came back the day before yesterday.
About half a pillar of incense passed, the baby was carried back, because of his young age, he screamed and cried out in pain, and his hands and feet were not honest, and he always wanted to grab the bloody body.
The man in the mask did not restrain the baby's hands and feet, and didn't care about the baby's yelling and messing around, but just said to all the babies with cold eyes: "I only say it once, if you scream indiscriminately, it will only make your physical strength pass faster; If you move around, you'll only bleed more. If you want to live, hold me up, and survive the remaining three days, and you will be like the previous batch of 'dogs', and you will be prosperous and prosperous from now on. ”
The boys crowded in the corner in horror, for fear that they would be the next to be pulled out.
Ming Song was the youngest, the smallest, and naturally the least powerful, and he was squeezed at the front by everyone.
The masked man pointed at Ming Song and said, "Then you." ”
