I went to school at my husband's private school, and I studied all day. At noon, the older children had to help with lunch. When Lei Luo and Cho Yu arrived in the kitchen, there were already several students in the kitchen who were helping. The daughter of the gentleman, a woman of about forty or so, was arranging for everyone to do things, and when she saw Cho Yu and Lei Luo coming in, she hurriedly beckoned: "Lei Luo, Cho Yu, you two have great strength, go to the back of the house and chop firewood......

Children of all sizes sat around several large tables, and after lunch, they returned to the classroom to review their homework. Lei Luo is naturally concentrated, no matter how condescending the content is, he can always memorize it in the shortest possible time. For this reason, Mr. will always give Lei Luo more guidance and arrangements.

Besides, the jade chopping is a completely different scene. He didn't seem to have any intention of studying at all, and his eyes were always looking out. How he wished that the woman in the green gauze would pass by the window, but every time he saw it, it was the gentleman's face so black that he could wring out water.

This jade chopping is afraid that he is the richest boy within a radius of hundreds of miles. He and Lei Luo are not in the same village, and their village is dozens of miles away from Lei Luo's village. Although it is said that dozens of miles of road is a matter of casual walking for people in the mountains, Lei Luo has never been to the jade house. I just know that the Chopyu family is rich, but I don't know what his family does.

As soon as the sun turned west, the gentleman dispersed from school. Cho Yu also wanted to pull Lei Luo to see the woman in the green gauze dress, Lei Luo thought in his heart, and Wan Er's mother's illness, where is the mind? So he refused Cho Yu, picked up his schoolbag and ran home.

Chop Yu shouted in the back: "Lei Luo, I'm going to die soon, I don't have many friends, you want to come!" Lei Luo had something in his heart, and he didn't take Yu to heart when he said it, so he casually agreed, and hurried to his home.

The familiar mountain village appeared in front of her again, and she was about to see Wan'er, whether her family's food was enough, whether there was more water in the water tank, and the farm work in the fields......

When I entered the village, it was already evening, and Lei Luo didn't go home, so he went straight to Guan'er's house. From afar, I saw smoke rising from the roof of Guan Er's house. Lei Luo tiptoed towards Wan'er's house, he was not afraid of Guan'er, but afraid of Guan'er's mother. Lei Luo was very naughty when he was a child, and often went to the tree of Wan'er's house to steal pears to eat, and was chased by Wan'er's mother to the house and pulled his ears several times. As soon as she saw her mother's fierce and vicious appearance, Lei Luo felt furious, I really don't know why, Wan'er is so gentle, but she has such a vicious mother.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Guan Er come out with a bucket. As soon as he saw the thunder falling, Wan Er exclaimed: "Mom, the thunder is coming." Lei Luo hurriedly made a silent gesture, but it was too late, and Lei Luo's mother had already spoken: "Oh, that kid is here, please come into the house and sit." ”

How dare Lei Luo go in, divert the topic and say loudly: "Auntie, don't need it, I'll go and help Wan'er carry water first." As he spoke, he took the bucket from Guan Er's hand. Wan Er understood, took Lei Luo's hand, and ran out of the village.

Wan'er's hands are so cool.

The two of them ran to the well at the edge of the village in one breath, and then gasped and stopped. Wan Er didn't let go of his hand when he saw Lei Luo, and tried to pull his hand back, where could he move. Lei Luo This is the first time he has held Guan Er's hand, and when he saw that Guan Er wanted to pull it back, he grabbed it tighter. "Let go of me, someone will see. Wan'er protested quietly, his face already crimson.

"What are you afraid of, we are openly in love, and we are still afraid of what others say?" Lei Luo said that he was about to hug Wan'er, Wan'er gritted his teeth, pushed hard, pushed Lei Luo away, and withdrew his hand. "Who is going to fall in love with you?" Wan Er turned around, buried his head, straightened the corners of his clothes, and his voice was so low that he couldn't hear clearly, "You are a cultured and ambitious person, you are destined to walk out of this desolate mountain village in the future, how can I be worthy of you?"

Hearing Wan'er say this, Lei Luo was a little excited, hugged Wan'er from behind, and said: "I'm just going to study for you, don't worry, I will definitely take you to see the wonderful world outside." ”

Since Guan Er has grown up so big, when has he ever been hugged like this, and he is still a man he likes. The body couldn't help but tremble a little, and wanted to struggle to escape, but he was a little reluctant. For Lei Luo, how can he not be excited, the sound of his heart beating is like beating a drum. I finally held Wan'er in my arms......

"Hey, I said you two ......" A woman's voice suddenly came from behind, "You still can't get water......?"

Turning around, a middle-aged woman was looking at the two meaningfully, Lei Luo suddenly panicked, quickly let go, lifted the bucket, tied it to the bamboo pole, and then reached into the well to lift the water. Wan Er was so panicked that he didn't know what to do, he couldn't stand or walk, so he had to bury his head and keep looking at the corners of his clothes.

"What are you ashamed of?" said the middle-aged woman quipped, "I was married when I was your age." Don't you two just hug, what are you ashamed of? When Aunt Li leaves, you continue to hug ......"

I don't know if Aunt Li is really comforting or intentionally making fun of her, in short, it made Wan'er even more shy, and hurriedly ran home. Lei Luo was in a hurry, glanced at Aunt Li, and said, "Aunt Li, you have a lot of words. As he spoke, he carried a bucket of water and hurriedly chased after him.

"You stinky boy, you still think Aunt Li talks a lot, is Aunt Li helping you know?" Aunt Li said while tying a bucket to the bamboo pole, "Such a big person, love when you should love, what is there to hide, I think you kid is stupid to read." ”

Although Lei Luo ignored Aunt Li, Aunt Li's words gave him great courage, and he caught up with Wan'er in a few steps with a bucket in one hand, and took Guan'er's hand with the other. Wan'er was just when he was shy, seeing that Lei Luo was so bold, he was not comfortable for a while, so he hurriedly pulled his hand back, Lei Luo was unwilling, and once again took Guan Er's hand and held it tightly, Guan Er couldn't pull it back anymore, and moaned in his mouth: "You pinch me." ”

Lei Luo took Guan Er by the hand and strode towards Guan Er's house. He was going to show Wan'er's mother, and he made up his mind. From time to time, Wan Er looked up at the tall and sturdy man holding him, although his face was still full of red, but he was indescribably excited and surprised. Perhaps, she had been waiting for this man to make such a bold move for a long time.

Wan'er's home has appeared in front of him, Wan'er looked at Lei Luo, and asked in a low voice: "Are you really not afraid?" Lei Luo looked at Wan'er, resolutely looked at Wan'er's home in front of him, and said firmly: "Don't be afraid, we are all so old, what are you afraid of?"

"That's good. Wan'er said with a happy face, "The flowers you picked cured my mother's illness, and she is almost recovered, she can walk on the ground and cook." You go and tell her about us now, and she'll definitely agree......"

As he was talking, Wan'er's mother appeared at the door of the house, looking at Lei Luo who was holding Wan Er's hand, the woman who had been suffering from illness for several years suddenly yelled: "Lei Luo, you rabbit cub, what are you doing......?

Lei Luo was naturally afraid of this woman, and he swore just now, but as soon as he was scolded, he immediately let go of his hand, put down the bucket, turned around and ran, and fled in a panic like a rabbit.

Behind him, Wan'er's mother was still scolding: "Rabbit cub, you rebelled against you, you stole our pears when you were a child, and now you still want to steal our Wan'er, you dare to do this again, see if I don't sue the village chief, break your dog's legs......"

Guan Er looked at Lei Luo's panicked appearance, and actually laughed out loud.

"Laugh, embarrassed to laugh. Such a big woman, I don't know self-love. Mom's voice scolding was obviously much quieter, "Don't get back to me soon." ”

Wan Er lifted the bucket, glanced back at Lei Luo, who was still running for his life, and reluctantly returned to the house.

The strong man seemed to have known that Lei Luo was coming back, so he came from afar to greet Lei Luo. Surrounding his master, the strong man would jump into the grass and gouge a few times, and then jump up and catch the butterfly, and he was very happy. In the eyes of others, the strong man is just a dog, looking after the things of the family, but in the eyes of Lei Luo, it is his friend and a family member who cannot be missing at home.

My father was cutting bamboo sticks and weaving farm tools, and when he saw Lei Luo coming back, his face was full of joy, and he greeted Lei Luo warmly as if he didn't remember what happened to Lei Luo's truancy, and asked with concern: "Are you back?"

Lei Luo put down his schoolbag and walked to the kitchen, and replied to his father: "Mr. has taught a lot of historical knowledge, and also taught the way to govern the world, saying that I can try it in the township test next year......"

"That's good, that's good, you study hard, don't worry about tuition. A bright smile bloomed on my father's honest face, "I'll make a few more baskets and sell them for more money." The pigs in the pen are almost out of the pen......"

Lei Luo's mother was cooking in the kitchen, and as soon as Lei Luo saw her mother, she acted like a three-year-old doll, hugged her from behind and said, "Mom, I'm hungry." What's delicious to eat today?"

Lei Luo's mother is a short and stocky middle-aged woman, due to the perennial farm work, her skin looks dark, and when she sees her son holding her, her face is naturally happy.

"Your father said that you studied hard, killed a chicken, and ate chicken tonight. Leiluo's mother said happily, "Go wash your hands, it's almost ready." ”

The family was happily eating dinner, but Lei Luo quietly took a bowl of meat from the pot and hid it in the jar. He was ready to send it to Wan'er after dinner. Since the death of his father, life has become extremely difficult, and whenever there is something delicious, Lei Luo will quietly leave a copy for Wan'er. He thought that no one knew about his tricks, but in fact, his attentive mother had already seen all this.

Lei Luo finished gnawing on a chicken foot and threw the bone to the strong man, who was so happy that he jumped up and down, buried his head and bit it proudly.

Suddenly, a muffled thunder exploded overhead, like the loudest thunderbolt during a summer thunderstorm, shaking people's ears.

This muffled thunder frightened the thunderous father and mother both stood up, their faces were pale, and cold sweat was instantly all over their faces. Lei Luo was trying to make fun of his parents for being timid, but found that his parents' expressions were extremely abnormal. At this time, the strong man seemed to have heard something, and listened intently. There was a sound, and the strong man jumped to his feet, barking wildly and ran towards the door.

"Boss Lei, Boss Lei is not here, come out quickly. The village chief's voice rang out outside the house. Lei Luo's father is the boss, and everyone in the village calls him Lei Boss, listening to the village chief's voice so anxious, he quickly stopped the strong man and rushed outside the house.

The village chief and several uncles who were all in their fifties came together, and when they saw that no one came out for a long time, they were so anxious that they rushed in. Lei Luo came to the door with his father, and as soon as the door opened, the village chief said impatiently: "Boss Lei, come with me, Lei Tribulation is coming." After speaking, he also glanced at Lei Luo meaningfully.

Father seemed to have known that the village chief was coming, and said to Lei Luo: "Go, follow me to find Yu Lao." ”

"Then I'll ......" Lei Luo's mother was also panicked, shouting, "I'll go with you ......" Before the word was finished, the sky above his head was another muffled thunder. The thunder sounded as if it had been locked up for hundreds of years, and it was going to be completely unleashed tonight, and it sounded so unscrupulously.

It was dark outside, and when he came to the public cemetery, Lei Luo found that many people in the village, all of them were about fifty years old, some of them were carrying torches, and some of them had candles, and they were silent. The atmosphere was suffocating. Coupled with the constant explosion of thunder in the sky overhead, this scene looks strange and terrifying.

Lei Luo's heart beat the drum, from childhood to adulthood, no matter what happened, the people in the village had never been so nervous.

Before entering the house, Yu Lao himself came out first. He glanced around at everyone and only said one sentence: "Fate is hard to violate, I'll just take his family there." Everyone, please go back. The village chief wanted to say something, but Yu Lao waved his hand and stopped: "My Yu Lao has lived in your village for 18 years, and in the past 18 years, what my Yu Lao has done, can you still believe it? I promise that tomorrow morning, their family of three will appear in front of everyone safely." ”

When everyone heard Yu Lao say this, they dispersed in twos and threes. When everyone left, they would look at Lei Luo with concern, which made Lei Luo feel very uncomfortable, could it be that there was something big secret in him. Thinking of his own heart, thinking of the faint warm current in his chest, thinking of the thunder feather arrows in the cracks of the mountain wall, and the prophecy on the wall, Lei Luo seemed to feel that something was about to surface.

As soon as the cold wind blew, Lei Luo shook his whole body, and couldn't help but shrink his hand into his sleeve. Yu Lao said to Lei Luo: "Lei Luo, carry me on your back and go to the cliff of the Thunder Flower of Kites." ”

Lei Luo didn't say anything, even if there were too many conjectures in his heart, he didn't ask, because Lei Luo knew, he should understand, if he didn't ask, Yu Lao would also say.

"Let's go!" Yu Lao sighed, "Tonight you will understand what that kite thunder flower is." ”

Lei Luo carried Yu Lao on his back, and his parents followed Lei Lao to light it with torches, accompanied by the muffled thunder all the way, and walked towards the cliff. To be honest, Lei Luo has grown so big, and he has never carried Yu Lao. He was as light as a child on his back, but Lei Luo felt as heavy as carrying a mountain. Gradually, Lei Luo felt that the Yu Lao on his back was getting hotter and lighter, and Lei Luo's body was inexplicably hot.

"Yu Lao," Lei Luo hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, you seem to be ...... It's getting lighter and lighter. ”

"Silly boy, how can I be lighter? It's that your strength is getting stronger, you see you grow so strong. ”

"Yu Lao, that's not the case, you're really getting lighter, and you're still hot, do you have a fever?"

Yu Lao didn't answer Lei Luo, but said lightly: "Lei Luo, I am not from your village, I have lived in this village for eighteen years, and I have been with you for eighteen years, it seems that I should leave." ”

"Gone" usually refers to death in people's mouths, and Lei Luo couldn't help but shout: "Yu Lao, what nonsense are you talking about, you have such a great body and bones, and you go from house to house to show others feng shui or something in broad daylight......

"Thunderfall, everything has a definite number, do you remember those poems I taught you?" Yu Lao changed the topic, "You memorized "Thunder Hexagram Song" for me to listen to?"

Yu Lao's so-called "Thunder Hexagram Song" is full of meaningless sentences, Lei Luo spent a lot of effort to memorize them, but they are useless in the private school. So Lei Luo said angrily: "Old Yu, what kind of messy things you taught me are useless, Mr. Xuanqing in the school said that he hadn't heard of it, what are you doing behind it?"

"Whether it's useful or not, you should coax Yu Lao to be happy, and listen to it on your back. After Yu Lao said this, he coughed twice.

When is it, still memorize these. But then again, since he went to private school, Lei Luo has not memorized the so-called poems taught by Yu Lao, many years have passed, and now when I go to recall, I actually appear clearly in my mind word by word: "Heaven and earth are turbulent, illusion is impermanent, the wind comes from it, quiet as a mountain, borrowing strength and strength, following the trend, the virtual and the real are combined, and the qi runs through the yin and yang ......"

The old man on his back looked a little excited, and kept admiring it. and warned Lei Luo and said: "I taught you "Zhen Thunder Hexagram Song" and those sentences that are not written into chapters, you have to often take them out and memorize them...... "Before you know it, the cliff has arrived."

It was dark all around, and the thunder tree on the cliff had long since lost its faint halo, and it was impossible to see in the darkness. Looking at the dark night sky and the black mountain walls, Lei Luo beat a drum in his heart: what will happen?

At the signal of Yu Lao, Lei Luo put him down.

Lei Luo imagined that Yu Lao should be able to hold paper money in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, light paper money, spit wine, make a few gestures, and recite a few incantations or something. But Lei Luo was wrong. Yu Lao walked to the bottom of the cliff, and took out a round stone from his arms, black and dull, and took out a key, the shape was simple, and it looked like an old thing. Yu Lao held the stone, took the key, turned around, stuffed the key into Lei Luo's hand, and said to Lei Luo: "Child, Yu Lao still has one last word for you, you remember, mortals are guilty, sin is not to death, mortals are evil, evil should not be punished." Careful education, leading the good like a stream, is the right way!"

What Yu Lao was saying, Lei Luo didn't understand it at all, but Lei Luo didn't ask, Yu Lao's temperament he knew best, what should be said, Yu Lao would definitely say it, what should not be said, no matter how you ask, you won't say it.

After saying this, Yu Lao lifted the black and dull stone above his head, looked at the thunder and lightning that was constantly pouring out in the sky, looked at the ancient trees on the cliff that were already unrecognizable and completely unreal, looked at the incomprehensible strange scene, and shouted: "The thunder is a disaster, and the thunder is the first to solve." The universe is wild, and the mountain rain is coming. The original sin was punished, and the fog was lifted. The voice was high-pitched and loud, and the power penetrated through the nine heavens, making Ran feel an irresistible majesty. How could this old man have so much power?

Then, after Yu Lao read some sentences that Lei Luo didn't understand, the black stone in Yu Lao's hand actually flew up slowly and stopped about three feet above Yu Lao's head.

This scene, which can only appear in the novels of gods and monsters, appeared so directly and nakedly in front of Lei Luo.

At this moment, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky for no apparent reason, illuminating the whole world, followed by lightning and thunder, and the muffled thunder and lightning circled in the sky, as if they were about to rush down at any moment-the target they aimed at was the stone above Old Yu's head.

This terrifying scene made Lei Luo feel so shocked and inexplicable, but his parents were not the slightest surprised, as if they had all seen such a scene. Looking at Yu Lao again, with his back to himself, he looked like a clay sculpture, motionless. Lei Luo was in a hurry, rushed over and stretched out his hand to pull Yu Lao in front of him, and at the moment he touched Yu Lao, suddenly a purple lightning bolt hit straight down from the lightning group circling in the sky, and went straight to the top of Yu Lao and Lei Luo's heads, and the lightning was actually purple. Lei Luo clearly felt that the lightning was getting closer and closer to him, but he just couldn't avoid it, the purple lightning completely enveloped the two, and as soon as Yu Lao touched the purple lightning, his body weakened and fell.

The purple lightning instantly focused on Lei Luo's body, and Lei Luo only felt the pain of the bones in his body as if they were shattered, and he fainted after a convulsion.

The entire space was filled with dazzling lightning, and the huge sense of oppression made it impossible to breathe. The round black stone, after falling with thunder, was struck by a bolt of lightning and rushed out like an arrow from a string, embedded in the cliff.

It took about a quarter of an hour before the electricity died out, and the hillside finally returned to calm. Looking at Yu Lao on the ground and his unconscious son, the tears in Boss Lei's eyes could no longer be contained, and they rolled out of his eyes.

This strange scene is so familiar to Boss Lei. Walking to Lei Luo's side, Lei Boss reached out to help his son, put it on his back, and walked home without looking back. Lei Luo's mother looked at Yu Lao on the ground in a daze, Yu Lao's body had shrunk a whole circle, skin and bones, and it was pitch black. Lei Luo's mother trembled in her mouth, but she couldn't say a word, and finally, she still put Yu Lao on her back, turned around, and followed Lei Lao.

Next to the ancient tree on the cliff, a dark figure calmly looked at everything below, but the tears in his eyes could not be hidden. When he watched Lei Luo's mother carry Yu Lao on her back, the figure burst into tears and whispered stupidly: "Brother Yuhua, the thousands of beings of my human race will definitely remember the great sacrifice you made today. ”
