In the quiet and old courtyard, the courtyard wall on one side has even fallen into decay. The courtyard was dilapidated, the grass was barren, the ground was full of fallen leaves, and a fiery red full moon hung in the night sky to support the lighting of the entire courtyard.

The mountain wind near autumn was a little cold, and it was cold and cold on people's bodies, so the boy knelt on the ground, looking at the middle-aged man who still had residual breath on the ground beside him, and couldn't help but shiver. The middle-aged man still had a smile on his face, and on the ground were the blood stains that had long since dried up after the torture. The middle-aged man shook his head at the boy, he was speechless, and could only use it to comfort him that he was okay.

The only room in the courtyard is lit with dim lights, and the shadows of the lights vaguely reflect the figures in the house. The man seemed to be meditating, and the wooden fish in his hand looked at it unhurriedly, as if he was meditating.

The boy's eyes secretly surveyed the yard, from the black crow resting on the old tree that was almost dead to the small house wrapped in vines and plants, he almost looked the whole yard, and felt that it was even more ghostly.

The beads of sweat on his forehead were also rolling down because of the fear of the one inside, because his legs had become numb from kneeling for a long time, and he was finally unable to resist because of his poor bones.

Looking at the old rice next to him who was about to fall into a coma due to excessive blood loss, the boy pursed his lips and made up his mind, "I was wrong. ”

"Huh?" Although he only asked one word, it still made the boy feel more stressed.

"I shouldn't have taken her out, if she hadn't gone out, nothing would have happened to her." The boy adjusted his position and continued, "It's all my fault, yes, I'm too cowardly to admit it. ”

The atmosphere was stiff, quiet, dead silent. The boy felt more and more terrible, as if the dark sky was about to devour him, and finally turn him into fertilizer for the wild grass in the courtyard.

"What else?" The sound of the wooden fish suddenly stopped, and the people in the inner room were looking forward to his next step.

The courtyard is silent, the wind blows the rustling of leaves, and the sound of cicadas and insects chirps from time to time in the fields of the countryside, tickling people's hearts.

It was her favorite voice, and she always pulled him and said they were talking to her. Although he laughed, he loved it because she liked it. However, now it was like a magic voice that disturbed his mind, as if, she was still there?

"And ......" he was nervous, his tongue seemed to be knotted, and the words were gagged back when they reached his mouth.

"What else?" The old man was unusually angry at his reaction, and the choking spicy smoke spread with the wind, enveloping him and almost suffocating him.

The boy knew that the master was really angry this time, and this was his punishment.

He breathed a sigh of relief, paused and said, "How much do you know about Ah Yan?" ”

"Know ......" the boy slurred, thinking of the girl's smiling eyes and the mournful face when she pretended to be old, what kind of person was she?

At this moment, he suddenly realized that he knew her ......

"You brought it back by Ah Yan." The tone was very serious, "So, I don't move you." Whatever she says, I cling to her. ”

The boy knelt on the ground and listened quietly, silent, but his thoughts were tumbling.........

The sound of the wooden fish in the house sounded again, as if he didn't want to pay attention to the two sinners outside the house, and he didn't know how long it took to hear a call, "Liu'er! ”

Liu Er is the maid of the family, and like Lao Mi, it is said that she was adopted by the old man when she was very young and has always been with her. Since the boy came to this house, she has been there, and when she was young, the old man was often not at home, and this willow has been taking care of her daily life. However, the people in the house called them Mother Liu and Uncle Mi, which shows that they are both old people.

It's just that I didn't expect that now in this miserable and miserable house, there are deep mountains and old forests with mass graves nearby, which can be said to be extremely hidden, but she, a woman, has the courage to follow her.

Seeing that the child seemed to be scared silly, she also persuaded her with kind words on the side, "Master, he is still a child." "First, because she has lost a child, seeing him touch, and secondly, because the family is already a busy mess, she doesn't want to send another black-haired person away.

"Ah Yan is also a child." The calm, stern voice came from the room again, "That's what he should have been." ”

Mother Liu stood in the corridor of the deserted courtyard, looking at the boy's face and finally a little unbearable, but she still nodded helplessly - yes.

"Kuye!" She beckoned to the boy, "Come here, come with me." ”

"Where are you going?" The boy's voice was full of confusion, looking at Uncle Mi, who was already a bloody man nodding to him on the ground, and looking back at the figure in the light room, his heart was empty.

"Remember, you're her eyes." As the boy stepped out of the yard, the man's voice rang out again, "If her eyes are dusty, I don't mind changing her one." ”

The boy swallowed, looked in that direction and shouted, "I know. ”

"I hope so!"

"There are a lot of people like you in this world, and some things don't have to be you."

"But I must be the best fit!" The boy seemed to be angered by his words, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the ground suddenly, "Everything is my fault, and it has nothing to do with Uncle Mi." I used to be timid, but I will definitely change it in the future. Please, please don't drive me away.

As long as I can stay, you can do whatever you want me to do! ”

"Master, this child ......" Mother Liu looked at the boy hesitantly, waiting for the final decision of the person in the house, she had seen everything that had happened to these two children over the years.

Although Ku Ye was picked up by Miss halfway, after all, after living together for so many years, Mother Liu has already regarded the two children as her own flesh and blood. She has to throw away two pieces of flesh and bone at once, so how can she give it?

What the young lady was thinking, she could guess roughly. What's more, how could the people of the Mo family die so easily, if Miss escaped this catastrophe one day and came back, how should she deal with it?

However, Mother Liu also knows the connection, the old man has always been not optimistic about Ah Ye, but he has endured it for the sake of Miss's face. After all, Ah Ye is only half a living person at most, and he can't help with many things, and even in the future, he will hold her back to a certain extent. And because of this, the master has wanted to replace him for a long time, and this accident is just a tipping point.

made up her mind, no matter what, she had to think of a way to save Ah Ye first. Because his body is still a good sacrifice, many people outside are staring, and if he leaves this home, he really has only one way to die.

The boy's forehead had been knocked out just a few times, and the blood flowed from his forehead and covered his eyes, but he still tirelessly knocked it again and again, like a strange tune, and the sound of the wooden fish inside.

"Whew!"

Finally, he heard the people in the room sigh and snort coldly, "She's gone, what's the use of you staying?" ”

"I ......" the boy thought for a moment and inadvertently glanced at the prickly red on his left shoulder, and his eyes became more and more determined, "She said that she would not leave me, even if she became a ghost, I believe she would come back to me."

So, what she didn't finish before, please let me do it for her. ”

"Oh, you have sharp teeth." The person in the back room shook his head, "That's it, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and the descendants are artificial, who can say accurately?" ”

"Sir? What do you mean? Liu's mother on the side was stunned for a moment and then rejoiced, and helped the boy up, "Ah Ye, you still don't thank the master, the master allowed you to stay." ”

"Thank you......"

Before the word "thanks" could be finished, it was interrupted by Shengsheng.

"Liu'er, since he's going to stay—" he paused, "it's okay, Ah Yan is gone, he should learn to be himself." ”
