Chapter 13: Three Lives and Three Worlds of Sorrow (I)
In a Hui-style ancient building, the house is relatively large, it is a three-in-three courtyard, in the innermost hall, a young man is sitting on the threshold looking at the rockery in the courtyard outside, there are two orioles on the rockery, are chattering to show affection, sometimes jumping, sometimes Qingqing me.
Just as the young man was fascinated, a hurried cry came from outside, "Helmsman, helmsman, there is an urgent report." As the voice came in, a man in his thirties walked in quickly, wearing a top hat, a tall figure, a rugged appearance, very masculine, with blazing eyes and thick hands.
At this time, the young man stood up, put his hand to his mouth and shhhed at the man who had just come in, still looking at the two orioles, the man who had just come in immediately stopped his voice, and looked at the two birds in the eyes of the young man, and the two orioles were disturbed by the footsteps of the man who had just come in, and with a poof, they flew away.
The man who stood up turned to look at the man who had just come in and said lightly, "What's the matter, divine power?" The young man was thin, with high cheekbones and clear eyes. Short hair.
"The helmsman has no intention of killing the helmsman in vain, and he has lost many of his subordinates. The middle-aged man named Shenli said.
"What about Yiyi?" asked the young man anxiously.
Chu Yiyi was recruited back to the helm by Miss. In addition, the young lady brought a message, no need to take revenge, and lurked as planned. The Divine Power replied.
"Yuan Shen Li, Yuan Shen Li, you just listen to Miss like this? This has provoked us at our doorstep, and if there is no action, it will inevitably make people underestimate our Black Lotus Sect." The young man said earnestly, "Who is the opponent?"
"Back to the words of the heartless helmsman, the opponent is a monk named Ma Yao. It should still be in Wu County these days. Before leaving, the young lady repeatedly instructed not to do anything to the horse. Yuan Shenli replied.
"If it doesn't affect Yiyi, I may not ask, but when it comes to Yiyi's safety, I can't ignore it, I promised Yiyi to protect him for the rest of his life. Ye Wuxin sighed and said.
"What about the young lady?" said Yuan Shenli uneasily.
"Miss, I'll explain, let's pack up our things and go to Wu County. ”
The weather was cold, the northwest wind had been blowing for three or four days, the sky was dark and heavy, a dilapidated street, potholes, some of the pits were shining brightly, it was the water in the pits frozen, there were two rows of thatched houses on the side of the street, this was a very remote town, the sky was getting dark, and a few people's houses had been lit with lanterns.
Occasionally, a few shouts made the quiet town a little angry, "Selling steamed buns, freshly baked steamed buns." "Lamb sold, steaming mutton soup. ”
In a thatched hut on the side of the street, a little boy held a little girl in his hands, and a lady lay on the bed, the lady had a sallow complexion, deep eye sockets, and coughed twice from time to time, the little boy's clothes were ragged, and he was so thin that he was almost out of shape, and the little girl was well-dressed, with a beautiful face, and her big eyes were full of timidity. The little girl heard the clamor outside, and timidly said to the little boy, "Brother, I'm hungry." ”
The little boy tightened the little girl's hand and replied, "Father will be back soon, and he will bring us food and medicine for mother." ”
The wind outside was getting tighter and tighter, the snow that had been holding back for a few days was dancing with the wind, the sky was completely dark, there was no light in the little boy's room, there was no oil in the house, and the wind beat the broken door with snowflakes, and the door was overwhelmed and made a creaking sound.
As the little boy and the little girl were dozing off, the door was pushed open with a bang, and a drunken man broke down the door and staggered into the house. "Daddy", the little boy quickly stood up from the edge of the table and greeted the man, who was full of beard, big copper eyes, scorched teeth, and a fishy smell.
The man ignored the child, ran to the woman's bed, reached out and grabbed the woman and threw it on the ground, scolding and scolding in his mouth: You stinky woman, broom star, lie on the bed every day and pretend to be dead, bad luck, and the harmful Lao Tzu lost again today. After speaking, he kicked twice at the woman.
"Grandma. The little boy hurriedly rushed over to protect his mother with his body, and the man kicked the boy in the back for the last time, and the man was stunned, feeling that he didn't kick the woman, so he bent down and grabbed the boy's neck and picked it up, and then slapped the boy on the cheek four times in a row.
The boy's face immediately swollen, and the man scolded in his mouth: "Little Wang Ba Lamb, I forgot who gave you food and drink, you want to be a hero, you are still too tender." I kill pigs every day to feed you useless things. It's not towards Lao Tzu yet. Lao Tzu beat you to death, a little king and eight lambs. At this time, the woman who fell to the ground pounced on her and protected the boy, "I want to beat you and hit me, don't embarrass the child." ”
When the man saw that both of them were targeting him, he immediately became furious and pushed the woman with his hand, and the back of the woman's head slammed into the corner of the bed. "I don't believe in evil, Lao Tzu will kill you two today. Turning around and kicking at the woman's front door, the woman snorted weakly, spitting blood and closing her eyes forever.
The boy saw the woman fall. In a hurry, he bit the man's hand hard, the man screamed, shook it hard, threw the boy to the corner of the house, turned around and picked up the little girl, "Lao Tzu has already given you to Wang Yuanwai to be a maid." Go with Lao Tzu. The little girl cried loudly, and reached out to the little boy and shouted, "Brother save me, brother save me, I don't want to leave you." ”
The little boy wiped the blood from his mouth with his hand, and his heart was like a knife. Picked up a sickle from behind and slashed it from behind, the man had already drunk too much, his gait was unsteady, and he had been making trouble for so long, and he was a little out of strength, and he couldn't avoid it, but his head was slightly off.
The boy's sickle happened to be cut on the neck, and immediately, the man's neck was bleeding like a column, and the girl in his hand slowly fell to the ground, and the man slowly fell to the ground and died.
The heavy snow has been falling for more than ten consecutive days, and the little boy is carrying the little girl on his back and walking on the road full of snow, and the snow is almost over the little boy's knees, only to hear the little daughter say, "Brother, I am hungry." The little boy put down the little girl and took out a steamed bun from his arms, which had been frozen hard.
The little boy struggled to break the steamed buns, but his strength was not enough, and the steamed buns couldn't be broken. The little boy couldn't help it, so he opened his mouth and took a bite hard, and it was hot and soft in his mouth, and fed it to the little girl mouth to mouth. The little girl took a few puffs, closed her eyes and fell asleep. The little girl's face was flushed, apparently with a fever.
Three days later, the little boy carried the little girl to the edge of a cliff on the mountainside, the little girl was already in a coma, the little boy stopped and put the little girl in the place to look, the little girl's feverish body had begun to turn cold.
The little boy palpitated, and cried out to the little girl, "Little sister, wake up." Little sister, don't sleep. We can escape from our town by climbing over this mountain. The little girl's eyes were closed and she did not respond.
The little boy was anxious, bit his wrist open, put his wrist to the little girl's mouth, the little girl sucked her mouth and opened her big eyes, looked at the little boy and said, "Brother, I'm going to find my mother, if there is an afterlife, I will still be your sister." ”
After speaking, he tilted his head and slept in the boy's arms, the boy was terrified, looked up to the sky and yelled, burst into tears, and then carried the little girl to the edge of the cliff, jumped and jumped.
