Chapter 214: Begonia Blossoms
The horse team has a younger sister named Ma Xiaohua, who is eighteen years old this year, and she is the kind of girl who looks very good when she smiles and shows her teeth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Therefore, the coexistence of laughter and the advantages of simplicity, generosity, and kindness is everyone's evaluation of her.
But God is always unfair, what is good to give you, and what will be taken away.
She loves to laugh, but she can't speak, and she can't even hear any sounds in this world.
Since she was a child, the parents of the horse team have felt why God would be so unfair to such a lovely daughter, but she has never complained about the world, the light and shadow are like shuttles, the ups and downs of life, and she has grown up with sunshine in the stumbling years.
Having learned how to communicate and how to be a part of this world, she has always felt that she is no different from those ordinary people, kind people, and always uses kindness to be honest with others.
But you treat the world like a relative, but the world treats you like a dog.
This is not without reason, flowers and weeds pursue the sun and grow towards the sun; Birds and beasts chase after breeding, roosting, and nesting. Everything in the world is born with pursuits, let alone people.
She is the same, so in the eighteen years of her growth, if she wants to grow vigorously like others, perseverance alone is not enough, there is something called faith to support, and faith comes from everyone's pursuit.
The horse team didn't know how the seed of music fell into the heart of his sister, landed, took root, sprouted, and grew into a tree with intertwined roots.
Xiaohua loves music, but she can't sing, or even hear anyone else singing or any other instrument.
This is also the source of the pain, at first she went to a lot of schools, but she was rejected, and no one would teach a deaf person to sing and play an instrument, because it was a joke.
Fortunately, she can still dance, but ...... Her favorite is still the cello that the horse team gave her when she was ten years old.
It is a cello made of maple with a maple top, a back, headstock, neck, and side panels, a saddle of cow wood, a trim of basswood, and an ebony fretboard, string pillow, tail post, pin, and string plate.
Although the somewhat shabby and mottled cello was a birthday present that the horse team had drunk too much at a bar after a mission, the girl was still very happy.
This also laid the foundation for her dream of one day being able to perform with the orchestra in the sacred music hall, and it is also her belief that she will not give up.
But it is not easy for ordinary people to learn music, and to be a deaf and mute person to insist on doing this thing is difficult, or it is beyond one's own strength.
Words such as neurotic, disabled, and mentally retarded could not break her unshakable faith.
There was no one to teach, so she could only rely on herself to explore, to practice on her own, over and over again......
The horse team spared no expense to find teachers for guidance, but there were almost no mentors who were willing to persevere, which was an impossible thing for those teachers, and many people who were willing to teach her were not for money, but in the name of teaching to do academic research.
Fortunately, with years of persistence, Xiaohua can at least control a musical lady like the cello not inferior to ordinary people, but there is still some distance from the threshold of joining the performance orchestra.
The horse team was her older brother and the only listener.
So every time he went back from a mission, the horse team couldn't help but hum the sonata "Skylark" that she had played for himself when driving, and every time he listened to it, he could relax and wash himself in the tranquility of the long night, although his sister couldn't hear it, but her hands could let him into a different world.
This is the greatest charm of music, and it is also a spiritual paradise that many people do not have.
The caravan drove through the bustling city and down a long alley to an old-fashioned farm on the outskirts, with an old wooden house crawling with vines on the side of the road, with lights on the windows.
The team slowly parked the car, got out of the car, and walked towards the cozy house, where the soft sound of the cello fluttered again, and he lost his mind at the door.
Because the song he heard this time turned out to be "It Doesn't Matter" that he and his sister had heard the orchestra play in the recital hall before.
This is a somewhat melancholy and quiet song, with tenderness and sadness to tell about their own attitude to life, regardless of other people's attitudes and opinions, with lonely loneliness to continue to move forward, sad but firm, lonely but persistent.
It was the first thing the team heard, and it was one of her sister's favorite tunes.
In the hall, my sister sat in front of the cello, her eyes closed and she was playing to her heart's content, although there were some gaps in the interlude in several places, but it did not affect her trying her best to get closer to the artistic conception and emotion of this piece, and even the horse team had been brought to that atmosphere by her piano sound, at least she was successful.
When the whole piece was finished, she stopped, pouting with some sorrow and thinking back to the scale of the strength of the strings during the performance.
The horse team pushed open the door, walked in with a smile, and came to her sister, Xiaohua seriously recalled and didn't notice her eldest brother, the horse team picked up her hand and made several string scale fingering, and also played two sign languages, saying that the sound was too heavy.
Xiaohua came back to her senses and saw that it was her eldest brother, she immediately set up the cello happily and pounced on her eldest brother, who hugged her and rubbed her head dotingly.
Finally, Xiaohua pressed her eldest brother to the table, and then she went to the kitchen to make food.
Seeing her little sister busy in the kitchen, the horse team remembered her mother, who passed on her beauty to her little sister despite the death of her and her father in a terrorist rebellion.
This house is also the only product they have left, and it is also the home that their brother and sister have been guarding.
Soon, my sister came up with a pot of fragrant tomato noodles, and lay on the table to watch her eldest brother eat with a big mouthful, and the sound of the eldest brother swishing and sucking noodles made her feel relieved and warm, and gradually, she fell asleep on the table tiredly.
After the horse team finished eating, he took the silly girl back to the room and covered her with a quilt, and then came to the back door alone, picked up the watering can to the faucet, unscrewed the water and filled it, carried it to the backyard, and watered the two rows of begonia flowers rippling in the night breeze.
One row of white, one row of pink.
The autumn breeze is cool and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing.
After he finished watering the flowers, he sat on the grass, lit a cigarette, and watched these begonia flowers bloom in the early hours of the morning so moving.
He took a deep breath of smoke, looked at the dark night sky, and muttered.
"The begonias you planted are blooming again......"
……
The night sky was silent in the early hours of the morning, and neither was the hospital.
"In the mission in the Huoyan Island area, Yuanyuan went with Brother Jiu, I thought it was a B-level mission, just to fight the crystal rock beast, you know, this kind of thing is very easy to deal with, except for the hard rocks on the whole body, the marksmanship is better, and it is not a problem to aim at the beasts of the crystal beast to basically kill dozens of them." Fu Qinqin waved her hand vigorously, trying to calm down the story of Brother Jiu's mission.
"Do you imagine that a squad with a warrior in charge can have a problem on a mission that isn't a risk?" Fu Qinqin looked at Hua Feifei and said, without waiting for Hua Feifei to answer, she continued, "That ghost place has always been said to be cursed, no one believes it, and it has been used as a joke by us mercenaries for many years, but that ghost place hides a ...... Apex predator! ”
"Apex Predator!?" Hua Feifei raised his eyebrows, in the division of monster strength of the Free Federation, these sea giants are divided into minions, bosses, apex predators, ancients, and abysses......
"yes." Fu Qinqin nodded, "So from the beginning of the battle, you will know how tragic it is, similar to a one-sided massacre, or hunting." Want to know what that thing looks like? ”
Fu Qinqin stopped, looked at Hua Feifei curiously, a little playful, and continued: "It's a monster in the shape of a man four or five meters tall, walking on two feet, with a big mouth full of jagged teeth like a sucker, three scarlet tongues like pythons, and two hands like big pincers, which can easily tear people into pieces and swallow them into their stomachs." ”
Fu Qinqin said, and also made a depiction of tearing and stuffing something into his mouth.
Flower extraordinary can imagine what that kind of monster looks like.
"And then?" Flower Extraordinary asked.
"Later." Fu Qinqin smiled, "That person named Yuanyuan wanted to lure away this monster with other combatants in order to cover the retreat of the wounded, even if those who covered the retreat had the idea of dying together, they still ......."
She didn't say any more, and obviously, the results speak for themselves.
"Fortunately, the alarm was sent out in time, and it happened that the Federation contacted a nearby god of war who was on a special mission...... But the god of war was still a step too late.
Brother Jiu watched with his own eyes that the girl named Yuan was torn in half by the monster and thrown into his mouth. Of course, if she hadn't pushed Brother Jiu away, it is estimated that it would have been Brother Jiu who was swept into two pieces by her tongue. Fu Qinqin calmly looked at the ninth brother who was asleep on the hospital bed.
"The relationship between the girl called Yuanyuan and the shopkeeper?" The flower extraordinary captures the point.
"She is the sister of Su Niang's husband." Fu Qinqin explained, "Her brother used to be on the team, but he got seriously ill in the radiation area, so he retired, and now he is also living on the 'radiation antibiotic'." ”
Hua Feifei looked at the Ninth Master, and he suddenly understood why this man was facing those hooligans alone.
"What about you?" Fu Qinqin raised her head and looked at Hua Feifei and asked, "What medicine does your father's illness need to be cured?" ”
Hua Feifei was silent for a while, and replied: "'Golden Crow Holy Blood Pill'!" ”
Fu Qinqin was still stunned when she heard it.
"I've heard of it, but this thing ...... It seems like the auction house hasn't been around for years. Fu Qinqin thought about it and couldn't help but be a little worried about him, "Once there is a shortage of things on the market, the estimated price will definitely ......."
Hua Feifei understood what Fu Qinqin meant, scarcity is expensive, this thing is worth billion, but it has been missing for so many years, and he must be more than one person who is eager to get it, even if he saves enough one billion one day, this thing will definitely be fried to a high and terrible price!
"The value of an item is not only the price given by the demander, but also the value and benefit it brings to the beneficiary!" Fu Qinqin said suddenly.
"But people always have to live in hope, don't they?"
Hua Fei retorted to her.
Fu Qinqin looked at him for a while, not knowing whether to comfort or blow, and finally smiled.
"Hope is bread that the poor can't eat."
