Chapter 3 It didn't go so well
The night sky was cloudless, and the bright moon was like an ice wheel hanging in the sky, venting its coldness outward. The river seemed to hear the call of the moon, and the rush took away the last bit of warmth. The autumn night was extremely cold, and the joy of regaining my freedom was wiped out by a patched single coat before it lasted ten minutes, and I was still suffering from a fever.
The direction should not be wrong. But in my current situation, navigating the damp and shady river is a real problem. But I only have this way, and I have no other way but to hope to get to a place where there are people as soon as possible.
The feverish little body had already reached its limit after ten minutes of running, but it was reassuring to look downstream that it was no longer in sight of the previous cell.
When you don't have a goal, the unknown road seems extraordinarily long. In order to dispel the fear of the night, I bothered and thought of some good things to calm my mood at this time.
"The traffickers in this world don't have enough IQ balance, the bad guys are so stupid, and the people here are hopeless. It seems that the witty one can easily be an emperor here. Wait a minute... It's not good to be an emperor, even if there are so many women, you can have everything that mortals seek. But when the emperor goes to work every day, a group of wives pile up at home and fight every day. One day when he retires, his sons will "fight" to death to the throne. Not good, not good. Okay, I'll just be a prince for it!"
I thought about the good things, and a smug smirk appeared on my face. But the smile disappeared immediately.
"I don't know how to get through this yet. I don't know how long my body can last, but if there is a tiger or wolf in the woods now, then I will die. ”
For a while after that, as I walked, I muttered like a mantra, "Brother Wolf, Brother Tiger, and all kinds of brothers, come to Guibao Land with no intention of offending." I have no two meats, and my bones are seriously deficient in calcium, and I have to stick two catties of diarrhea when I eat, when I am not there, when I am not there. "Jade Emperor, Buddha, God, God bless. Don't get close to demons and monsters. Amitabha, Amitabha. Something like that.
I don't know how far I went, until I couldn't walk and sat down on the ground. The cold is serious again, every part of the body hurts, and the consciousness is already a little blurry.
I shook my head, and then struggled to rub towards the river, trying to use water to clear my mind. Moving to the river, the current was relatively gentle, and my face was reflected in the moonlight. "This face is so cute" was my first reaction.
I saw that the facial features of the young man's face reflected in the river were perfectly distributed, and the black ash on his face and the white hair in the shape of a chicken nest did not cover the delicacy of this face. The most distinctive thing is that the iris of the big eyes under the white eyebrows is not the brown color that a normal person should have, but dark silver. The dark silver in his eyes has no blemishes, and it looks particularly mysterious in the dark night.
No wonder this "porcelain doll boy" will be kidnapped by traffickers. But I'm really lucky, I don't have to worry about deceiving children to eat candy with this look. I was just about to fantasize about selling cuteness and begging for money in the future, when my head suddenly sank and I fainted. I still had a glimmer of clarity in my consciousness before I passed out. At that time, I thought to myself, "I wasn't attacked by the outside world because I didn't have a fever, how could it be?"
Is this going to die again? That was the first thought I had when I woke up. At this time, my body still had feelings, but I was too weak to move, and every inch of flesh on my body was secretly aching, and the taste made me no longer feel the temperature outside.
My head still hurts, but this time the pain is a little more tricky than the pain of fever. Last time, the pain was the feeling that the brain was swollen when I had a fever, but this time the feeling was that the brain was not only swollen outward, but also pricked by countless fine needles, and the pain that had never appeared before was maddening.
"Hey, at least it was better last time, I didn't feel anything. This time, I was slowly waiting to die in pain. But for someone like me who has died twice and felt different when I die, I'm the only one in the world. When I turned around and saw Lord Yama and his old man, when chatting, I used those things as a talking point for their old man, and maybe I could even be an official. ”
Just as I was thinking in despair, a pair of large strong hands grabbed me by the back and made me sit up. Before I could react, something was stuffed into my mouth. The big hand only tapped me on the back, and the thing in my mouth somehow went down my stomach, and I didn't even feel it in my throat, and then I fell asleep.
I had a dream. In my dream, there is a football field, and on the side of the goal stands a person. I couldn't see the man's face clearly, but he felt like a father to me. This character, which I don't care about on the surface, hasn't dreamed of in years. In the dream, he held my hand lightly and ran forward with me. I don't know why he did this, but the warmth from his big strong hands made me feel more relieved, and I was pulled by him like this, and a glimmer of happiness flashed in my heart.
Suddenly, the figure of my father in front of me was illusory, I panicked, and I couldn't do anything but hug that hand with both hands, begging him not to leave... I don't know how long the stalemate lasted in the end, but this dream finally woke up. When I woke up, I was a little depressed, and I sat up and wiped away the tears that remained in the corners of my eyes.
"Huh!"
"My body was able to move, and now all the discomfort was gone, except for my stomach growling. Why am I alright?" I was shocked to find.
At first, I thought I was still dreaming, and pinched my thigh, only to realize that all this turned out to be true. Looking back on what happened at that time, it should be the owner of those big hands who saved me, and I have to thank people when I look back. This world should have martial arts and other things, remember that the big hand owner patted lightly, and the things in his mouth went in, and ordinary old Chinese medicine doctors would not have this hand. Doesn't it seem that the world is so boring? It would be nice if there was light work, and if you learned light work, you can match the face you are now... Hee-hee, just think about it...
While I was still making up the picture in my head, I heard a deep voice come and disrupt my thoughts. "Boy, you're awake. ”
"Well, wake up. I replied subconsciously
This must be the person who saved me, the voice is so familiar, it feels like I've heard it somewhere. Trying to remember, all of a sudden, the pores on my body seemed to explode, and the pores radiated cool air from the inside out.
I knew it couldn't have been so smooth, and he could have escaped so far to be found, and this time it was really the end.
I looked to the source of the voice. I saw an elongated version of a huge black iron rocking chair by the window on my left, and a man like an iron tower sat on the rocking chair. The man was about thirty years old, his hairless face was not lacking in majesty, and his strong arms were as thick as my waist. He lies in the rocking chair, giving the illusion that the rocking chair is about to fall apart. From the time I remembered the person's identity to the time I observed the person, it only took a few seconds.
The man listened to my answer and was slightly stunned. Open your eyes and smile slightly. His smile made me shudder, and the glint of his brown eyes gave me a bad feeling that it could only be seen in a child who was about to play with a new toy. And I knew deep down that his new toy wasn't me!
