Even at night, the summer climate still gives people a feeling of suffocation of breathlessness, coupled with the sound of strange insects from time to time from the dense and thriving weeds around, making this deserted town seem particularly strange and quiet.

Located in the middle of Wang Village in the northeast corner of Jumping Horse Township, there is a ruin of a farmhouse courtyard destroyed by the earthquake.

This is where the ancestral house of the little fat man is, and according to him, this courtyard has existed since his grandfather was a child, and has been renovated several times, which can be said to have contributed to the family's habitat plan for several generations.

At this time, in the open space in front of this ruin, a huge bonfire has been lit, and there are thirteen figures sitting around the bonfire, and all of them are silent and in a state of low spirits, these people are Chen Xiao and his party who came with the little fat man to find relatives.

And on the ruins not far behind the campfire, there was a newly built mound, about half a zhang high, five or six feet square, all of which were made of stone and gray bricks, and between the large and small crevices of the mound were stuffed with mud and sand of different colors.

At this time, above the grave, a wooden board made of Mi Xu Chang tombstone has been inserted, on which the names of several elders are written quite conspicuously, as well as the names of the people who erected the monument, and the name of the little fat man, Li Han and Chen Xiao is the name of the three people, it seems that this tomb is the little fat man for his family to set up a clothed tomb.

After Chen Xiao and his entourage came here before, they had silently paid tribute to their family with the little fat man, and after learning that the little fat man had affirmed that all his family members were killed, Chen Xiao and the others were sad, but they still thought of handling the funeral affairs for their brother's family, so they organized Han Zhengzhong and others to work together.

Everyone first looked around for usable materials to build the tomb, and then set up a tombstone for the little fat man's family, and after some kind words and persuasion, let the grief-stricken little fat man inscribe the inscription for the family.

And Chen Xiao and Li Han naturally added their names, after all, the previous two experiences of searching for relatives have already established the brotherhood of the three of them, and it is understandable to follow the example of the past at this time.

The three of them once again to the little fat man's family of the mound of clothes, before they began to make plans for the night camp, because the little fat man was not willing to leave his own land at this time, everyone had no choice but to decide to camp here, so everyone looked around for some firewood and clear water, ready to get together here tonight.

Because there are already few people here, not even a wild cat or wild dog is missing, and there are no big rivers and mountains nearby, the plan to hunt or look for food must be difficult to find, plus Chen Xiao and the other three are in a heavy mood, and they have no appetite to eat at all, so the thirteen people in the group did not mention the matter of eating, and the food left by everyone before has been fully distributed to An Dinghai and others, so sleeping in the open tonight is already a sure thing.

After everyone burned a bucket of boiling water with the gasoline barrel carried by the little fat man, they sat around the bonfire to drink water and rest, during which Han Zhengzhong and others and An Dinghai and others also comforted and encouraged the little fat man, and shared their own tragic experiences with the little fat man, although it did not let the little fat man completely come out of his sadness, but also let the little fat man return to a trace of normal.

Although the little fat man accepted everyone's persuasion and care, he still maintained that silent posture, but his expression was stunned and he was in a daze, and he only nodded slightly in response to others' persuasion, and he didn't know if he really listened to it, but his mental state was a little better than before.

Seeing this, everyone could only accompany him to be silent with a sentimental face, and even the two children beside An Dinghai, Ah Ling and Huzi, were very sensible and silent, just staring at the little fat man helplessly, with a sympathetic look.

Also, the words of consolation have been said so much, and they are still those old-fashioned words, for a person who is in extreme sadness, it is simply playing the piano to the cow, and there are some things that you still have to figure out by yourself.

"Alas! Little fat man, brother, I don't advise you anymore, I just want you to remember, don't be depressed because you lost your family, we are alive now, we are no longer simply living for ourselves, think about the expectations of your relatives for you! They all want you to live well, happily, and be a man who stands up to the sky! ”

Seeing that the atmosphere around him was so depressing, Chen Xiao couldn't help but sigh heavily, and played the family card at the little fat man with a look of concern, with a serious elder attitude.

"Yes, fat brother, aren't our three brothers all helpless now? You should cheer up! Didn't Brother Xiao and I survive too? In the future, the three of us brothers will depend on each other for their lives, aren't we your relatives? You have to be strong! ”

When Li Han heard Chen Xiao's words, he couldn't help but be a little anxious, and at the same time stared at the little fat man with a worried look.

"Little fat man, do you remember the oath of the three of us in T City? What did you say to me at the time? Tell me! ”

As soon as Chen Xiao saw that he and Li Han were chattering bitterly, the little fat man just glanced at the two of them expressionlessly, and then began to lose his mind again, and couldn't help but look a little unhappy, and shouted at the little fat man in a changed tone.

After the little fat man was startled by Chen Xiao's shout, he couldn't help but look stunned, and then muttered in a low voice with a complicated face: "We are brothers, we will never run for our lives alone, we will never betray our brothers, and we will never steal ......our lives."

"Yes, since we are brothers, shouldn't you consider the feelings of both of us? Can we be happy in our hearts when you are so listless? If you say that you will share weal and woe, live and die together, you have to think about our future! Pain is only temporary, you must not lose faith! I hope you can come out as soon as possible, and we have to build a new home! ”

Chen Xiao saw that the little fat man remembered the original brotherly oath, and his eyes also recovered a little brilliance, and he couldn't help but continue to shout coldly while the iron was hot, with a ruthless brother posture, of course, he spoke like this, but he was also afraid that the little fat man would sink into grief and couldn't extricate himself, and wanted to rekindle his confidence in the future.

"Fat brother, have you forgotten the folks in Panlong Town? Have you forgotten Xiao Guo and Ma Jing's sisters? They're all waiting for us to go back! If you don't cheer up, everyone will be so worried! ”

As soon as Li Han saw that the little fat man listened to Chen Xiao's words, his eyes gradually brightened, and he couldn't help but continue to persuade in high spirits, and also moved out a group of companions from Panlong Town, fully cooperating with Chen Xiao's words.

"Brother Xiao! Hanko! Rest assured, both of you! Although I am timid and can't withstand changes, I am not as cowardly as before, and after all kinds of things I have seen and heard along the way, in fact, I have long expected this ending! It's just that I have been regretting my previous cynicism and ignorance in my heart, and I have not lost faith in life! I won't let you worry about me, I'll be fine in a while! It's true! I wouldn't fail to think about it! ”

When the little fat man saw that Chen Xiao and Li Han were worried about his spirit, and had been seducing him step by step, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and then he made a sincere promise to the two, and his face also recovered a lot of brilliance.

The little fat man also knows that he is the most timid and afraid of things among the people, although he is very arrogant on weekdays, but when he really encounters a big event, he is timid, and he will always mess up, if he hadn't followed Chen Xiao to experience a lot of ups and downs along the way, I am afraid that his personality is not as calm and tenacious as he is now.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Xiao and others are afraid that he will not be able to think about it, worried that he will give up on himself because of great grief and will never recover, not that he will commit suicide or will not be able to overcome his grief.

"Brother Xiao, Hanzi, it's still the same sentence, since the three of us are really dependent on each other now, then we are brothers, and we will never run away alone in the future, never betray our brothers, and never steal our lives!"

After the little fat man took a deep breath, he sat up straight with his body that had been lying down, and said to Chen Xiao and Li Han with a firm face, with a tone of eloquent words, and at the same time, his eyes were also full of determination to look at the two.

"Excellent! This is our good brother, we must never abandon in the future, and then build a beautiful home together! No setbacks can defeat us! ”

When Chen Xiao saw the little fat man's energetic appearance, he couldn't help but look overjoyed, and while his heart was a little calm, his mouth was also full of gratifying praise.

……

After the little fat man's spirit returned to normal, everyone was naturally happy, and they chatted enthusiastically with the little fat man, and even the newly joined An Dinghai and others also looked a lot more relaxed, and everyone became talking and laughing.

The dullness and depression of the previous period of time choked these newcomers enough, coupled with the already empty belly, it really made these five people miserable, and they suffered both physically and mentally, especially the two twelve or thirteen-year-old children, who were made sleepy by the sad and depressed atmosphere......

After a night of nothing, after getting up early the next morning, Chen Xiao and his entourage embarked on the way back along the route they came, and everyone had completed the plan to help the little fat man find his relatives, and it was useless to stay in this place where things were wrong.

Moreover, Chen Xiao and the other three have been away from Panlong Town for three days, and the companions and villagers in the town are still waiting for them to go back to implement the development plan of the clan, and I don't know if there have been any changes or dangers in Panlong Town in the three days they have left......

However, even if it is in danger, with Xiao Guo's courage and maturity and calmness, he should be able to lead everyone to deal with the past, as long as he does not encounter a large number of other human races, I believe that the companions in Panlong Town will be safe and sound, and with Xiao Guo's superb archery skills and the many young men in the group, I believe that there will be no shortage of food in the town......

On the way, Chen Xiao couldn't help but feel more and more like an arrow when he thought of the many companions and villagers in the town, and even a faint sadness was faintly hung on his face, so that he, who was walking in front of the team, couldn't help but speed up his pace......
