introduction
It is said that thunderstorms are born with lightning and thunder, and wind and rain are combined. It stands to reason that there shouldn't be such a big thunderstorm in September, so Mr. Murakami's literate private school gave him the name based on this celestial phenomenon.
Lei Yu had a lively and cheerful personality when he was a child, and his mouth was very sweet, which was very popular with his neighbors. But since he was eight years old, there was a sudden change in the family, which made Xiao Leiyu's personality seem to have changed as if he had changed a person, lively and cheerful, and he was replaced by a taciturn, deep and serious look, so that the neighbors who usually like him felt uncomfortable and worried about him, and he experienced such a huge blow at a young age.
His father worked as a carpenter in the town, and he was a man of great skill and generosity, often helping his neighbors. On the day of the accident, he was working at the Zhao family, who opened a pharmacy in the town.
The Zhao family opened a pharmacy in the town, and they were a wealthy family, rich and powerful.
Lei Yu's father was working at his house, and when he was on the beam, he accidentally fell off the roof and was seriously injured, and was carried home after being treated briefly.
Afterwards, the Zhao family not only did not make compensation, but also asked his family to kick his father out, threatening that all the pharmacies in the town would not sell him a pair of medicines. The crowd of onlookers who carried him to seek justice were afraid of the power of the Zhao family, and no one dared to stand up and say a fair word.
Since then, his mother went to the town to buy medicine to treat her injuries, although she went to all the pharmacies in the town, said all the good things, and even knelt on the ground and pleaded, none of the pharmacies were willing to sell medicine to her, saying that the shopkeeper Zhao said hello and could not sell medicine to her.
When he returned home, his parents were holding their heads and crying, and his father was sick and died soon after, and the pain and extreme grief and anger at the time of death were deeply engraved in Xiao Leiyu's heart.
The thunderstorm that witnessed this change planted the seeds of hatred in his young heart, and the hatred of wanting to grow up immediately, slash the Zhao family, and take revenge has always accompanied his growth, the injustice of the world, and the indifference between people also made him understand the cold of the world. Since then, he has never trusted anyone again, and has become very deep and silent.
After his father's accident, my mother was also severely hit by the collapse of her mental pillar, and soon after, she went insane and suffered from madness. When he was awake, he hugged the thunderstorm and cried bitterly, and when he was sick, he scolded the cruelty of the Zhao family, biting everything he saw, and treating the things he bit as if he was the Zhao family, as if he were eating his flesh.
In this case, how can she go out to help earn money, and the eating and housework of the mother and son all fall on the sensible little thunderstorm. At a young age, he picked up the burden of life, no matter whether the weather was sunny or rainy, the heat and cold, every day he went up the mountain to chop firewood, relied on a little money from selling firewood to maintain the family, went home to wash and cook by himself, took care of his sick mother, and silently undertook the entire housework at a young age, whenever he saw his mother's crazy and painful appearance, Lei Yu's heart was actually bleeding, and the heart of revenge was buried deep in his heart.
The originally happy and harmonious family was completely changed by his father's accident. In order to treat his mother's illness, all the things that the family could sell were sold, and Lei Yu could no longer read and read in a private school like children of the same age.
Since the age of eight, the happy childhood of thunderstorms has ended, at a young age, all day long to fill the stomach, for the livelihood of the rush, whenever the flash flood can not go up the mountain to chop wood for money, can only in the dilapidated home to endure hunger and cold. Poverty and the crazy screams of my mother when she became ill, and the evasion, ridicule, and insults of the people in the town grew up day by day.
One early summer morning, as usual, before dawn, the twelve-year-old Thunderstorm picked up a woodcutter and went to the mountains to chop firewood. After several years of trials and hardships, he has been trained very strongly, although he is a little thin, he is about a little taller than his peers, calm and capable, with a resolute personality and surprisingly courageous courage.
When he reached a ravine in the mountains, he put down his jacket, went to the stream to fetch a bowl of water, took out the buns he had brought, and walked to a big rock, where he wanted to sit down and eat something before working.
Suddenly, he noticed that there was a person crawling behind the boulder, and the blood flowing from his back had stained his clothes dark brown, and he was crawling there motionless, and it seemed that he had been crawling there for some time.
"Ah!", he exclaimed, unconsciously taking a few steps back. After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no movement, he boldly stepped forward and squatted down, and gently shook the man's shoulder, wanting to see if he was still alive. At this moment, the lifeless man rolled over and stood up, and a bright short sword rested on his neck.
"If you move again, you'll die," the man stared fiercely at Thunderstorm.
The thunderstorm was stunned, and the person who was crawling on the ground would actually put a knife on his neck, and he looked at the man motionlessly. The man saw that he was a child, and the slightest strength he had been agitating vanished, and he fell down again in a daze.
"Bring me some water," the man said majestically.
The water that Lei Yu was carrying had already been sprinkled, he ran to the stream and scooped up a bowl of water back to the man, helped him sit up, handed the bowl to him, took the bowl, and drank it in a big gulp.
When he drank water, Lei Yu saw the man's appearance clearly: "Sixty years old, thin, very different from the old people you usually see, with a kind face, and the long bun of hair on his head has been scattered. A scar ran from the neck to the back, deep into the bone, and the gray robe was almost soaked with blood, and in spite of all the blood shed, the man's eyes felt still bright."
After drinking some water, the old man's spirits looked better.
"Would you like to eat some steamed buns, grandpa", Lei Yu gently handed over the steamed buns in his hand. The man shook his head and closed his eyes silently.
"Grandpa, what should I do if you are so seriously injured?, or I will find someone to carry you to the town for treatment, I can't help you alone", Lei Yu looked at the old man in front of him, with an indescribable sense of intimacy, and asked the old man with concern.
"No need, little brother, xiexie you", the old man said slowly.
"Help me sit up", Lei Yu hugged the old man's shoulders with both hands, and carefully helped the old man to lean against the big stone, for fear of accidentally hurting the old man, so he stood up and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand after doing it.
The old man watched all this silently, then stared at the little thunderstorm without saying a word.
Lei Yu was a little hairy in his heart, and he didn't know what he would do next: "How can such a serious injury be cured?, does he have the intention of harming himself?"
"The qualifications are too poor, and there is no spiritual root, alas...... , just see that his heart is not bad, calm and calm, maybe it is arranged by God, fate should meet him?,, pity me for more than 50 years of penance, the dream of becoming an immortal, that's it...... , that's it, fate is really playing tricks".
Lei Yu stared at him blankly, looking at the old man's uncertain eyes, not knowing what to do, and not knowing how to help him.
"Grandpa, what do you want me to do to help you?, your wounds are all black", Lei Yu looked at the old man's wounds and asked softly in a very unbearable voice.
"What's your name, who's in the house, and where do you live?", the old man asked, waving his hand to show that he didn't care about his injuries.
Lei Yu answered one by one, and told the old man about the cause and effect of his father's death. Speaking of sadness, the choked tone was full of revenge.
"Sit next to me and listen to me, my time is running out". After listening to the story of Thunderstorm, the old man said softly, and Thunderstorm complied with the old man's request and sat beside him.
Lei Yu never expected: "This sitting, his life trajectory has undergone a fundamental change, it is likely that he can only spend his life in mediocrity, but because of this sitting, he has moved towards a new life, and a new page has been opened."
