Silo carried a futon in one hand and black bread in the other, looking for something under the city walls. netThis is the wall north of Alder, and the city wall is crowded with people. He squinted his eyes and found where he had been from memory, where the old man and the girl were still there.

He put the things in front of the two of them: "I have already brought the things, each person only has one loaf of bread a day, and I want to save some food." I know the brother who distributed the supplies, and he gave me a fairly warm quilt. ”

"Thank you, kid. Barov said.

Silo shook his head and didn't say anything, just sat down against Barov. In Alder, they could no longer find a place to live, even if it was three people in a room, so they could only huddle under the walls to collect the supplies they needed. It was also hard black bread and thin bedding, and Alder only tried to make sure that the refugees would not freeze or starve to death, but that was all.

However, the people who come here will not have too many requirements, most of them have experienced the disaster of the destruction of their hometown, so they are forced to come here, and for many people, it is very satisfying to be able to live. Xiluo heard that the imperial capital had been locked down, but Alder had not been locked down and had been receiving refugees.

But if this continues, even if the dragons never attack Alder, as long as it drags on for a few weeks, Alder will be full of dead corpses due to hunger and disease. And soon the cold winter will come, and the refugees' lives will be even more difficult.

Barov asked, "Aren't you a guard of the line? They didn't give you a place to live?"

"What more do deserters want?" said Silo mockingly, "it's not bad that they didn't put me to death." ”

"Child, you and I know very well that you are not a deserter. Barov said softly, "You saved a lot of people." ”

Silo shook his head and didn't speak, he looked at Lily in Barov's arms. The little girl had been crying for a whole day and a night, and her eyes were as swollen as walnuts. After that, she stopped crying, didn't say anything, gave her something to eat, and didn't cry out hungry if she didn't give it, like she was stupid.

But now that she was alive, Silo noticed that Lily's eyes were always on a boy beside her. It was a boy with a missing arm, about five or six years old, and the bleeding from the wound on the broken arm had not stopped. His face was pale, his teeth clenched in pity, and a woman who didn't know if it was his mother or his sister kept holding him, wiping her tears from time to time.

"If you don't take care of the wound, the child will die. Silo said.

Lily's body trembled slightly, and Barov also noticed the little boy, and his face couldn't bear it: "Do you have any help?"

"There is no good way but to treat the wound. Silo shook his head, "But herbs are the most scarce thing in Alder right now, and the hemostatic herbs are basically distributed to the guards of the city wall, and there will be no surplus for the refugees." After all, there are so many injured refugees. ”

"The wounded man—"

Barov noticed Silo's expression and was smart not to continue. When Siloh went to collect supplies, he saw that the guards had dug a huge pit at the gate of the city, and the pit was full of corpses, and the guards poured kerosene on the corpses and set them on fire. The fire burned for a long, long time, and it took at least an hour for Silo to come and go, and in this hour, the fire only grew stronger.

"If you want to talk to him, go ahead. Silo seemed to be talking to himself, and as if he was talking to someone, "If you don't have a chance in the future, I promise you'll regret it." ”

Lily, who was in Barov's arms, glanced back at Silo and hesitated for a moment, then her face showed a fortitude that was not appropriate for her age. She broke free from Barov's arms and ran quickly towards the boy. Barov looked at Lily's small back and said softly, "Disasters make people grow up. ”

Siloh pursed his lips and did not speak.

Lily ran up to the little boy, and the little boy's sister looked at her and smiled reluctantly, "Is there something wrong with the little girl?"

The little boy also raised his head, with a hint of goodness on his pained expression.

Lily hesitated for a moment and said, "My dad taught me before, if I feel uncomfortable or unhappy, just sing and sing. ”

The boy's sister was stunned, and after a few seconds, her eyes were red again. She hurriedly wiped away her tears, looked down at the little boy, and said softly: "Gu, this little sister wants to sing to you, don't you thank others?"

Gu Ye smiled with difficulty, and said in a trembling voice, "Thank you, sister." ”

He has a nice voice and white teeth.

Like Daddy.

Lily took a deep breath and remembered the tune of the song that her father used to pat her on the back in the middle of the night to lull her to sleep, and she hummed softly: "

The dark sky hangs low

Bright stars follow each other

Insects fly, insects fly

Who are you missing?

The stars of the sky shed tears

The roses of the earth wither

The cold wind blows the cold wind

As long as I have you with me

Insects fly and flowers sleep

One pair after another is beautiful

......”

Lily's voice wasn't loud, but it was powerful enough. Little did she know that as she hummed, the people around her lowered their voices, and everyone looked at Lily. This thin, short girl, in this environment, hums the simplest nursery rhyme to a little boy who has lost his arm and gritted his teeth to insist.

Xiluo felt that his face was a little wet, he subconsciously reached out and touched it, and found that his face was full of tears.

"What a child. Barov said with red eyes.

Arnold and Xiu, who had just arrived here from the City Lord's Mansion, happened to see such a scene. All the refugees put down their hands and gathered around a little girl with a ponytail, and the little girl hummed softly, which was obviously a very simple and popular song, but everyone present couldn't help but sob.

Arnold watched this scene silently, he had been the lord of the city for so many years, and there were few things that could move him. He turned his head to look at Xiu, and found that the latter's beautiful eyes were also shining with a sparkling light, and Arnold thought to himself, Xiu must have remembered his mother, and when his mother was still alive, he often taught Xiu to sing.

After his mother's death, Xiu never sang again.

But by the time Lily finished the last verse, the little boy was dead. But his face was no longer painful, and the boy's sister hugged the little boy's corpse and cried and said thank you to Lily.

"People have to leave. Barov said softly, "But there is always a difference between leaving with a smile and leaving with a cry." ”
