Finally stepped on the flat ground, climbed down from the towering giant peak, and sat paralyzed on the ground. His hands and faces were worn out, and blood stained his tattered clothes and trousers.

He struggled to his feet, staggering to his home, but as far as he could see, he could no longer see the familiar sight. The smoke and dust are full of boulder loess wrapped in trees and leaves, and there are still villages.

"Mother, where are you?" , "Yiyi, my brother is ...... here". Moving his body, He Wei shouted and cried, and finally sat on the ground.

After all, I was desperate, my home was gone, my family was gone, I couldn't find the familiar Tengqiao, the familiar private school, the familiar bamboo house and the familiar people, and everything was gone.

He Wei just sat there until the sky was full of red clouds, and the sun was about to set. The young man couldn't help but think of this time yesterday: at sunset, he and Ah Dao sat on the big stone by the vine bridge, watching the old Grandpa Kang gently pat the buffalo that looked older than him. A man and an ox staggered onto the drawbridge, the glow of the sun shining on them, and their old faces looked radiant. Herds of cattle and sheep descend slowly down the hillside on the other side of the river. A familiar mountain song sounded in his ears, and it was Brother Erniu's voice again. His voice is always so big, and he always likes to hold the mother lamb named Liangmei in his arms. After a while, Yiyi ran to call them home for dinner, and stretched out her hands to send two pieces of crispy meat into the mouths of herself and Ah Dao. In the evening, my father slapped open a jar of old plum wine and told a lot of the past when he was young, until he got himself drunk. Ah Dao helped his father get to bed and went back. The lady roasted sweet potatoes around the stove again. He Wei asked his mother a lot of past events. The mother said something funny, which caused their brother and sister to laugh, and she laughed too, and from the mother's face, he saw the ...... satisfaction.

"They didn't have time to suffer, did they?" Two lines of tears flowed down the boy's cheeks. The boy couldn't help but look up to the sky and howl, and the howling echoed for a long time in this strange night.

But it is said that the big turtle has arrived in the Roselle Swamp in an instant. With a shake of the turtle's back, he threw Wen Dao and He Yiyi into the grass. Without waiting for the two of them to get up, the giant twisted and went straight to the sinkhole waterfall.

Wen Dao and He Yiyi got up from the grass, in addition to being surprised, more inexplicable. Obviously, one was packing up his things and was about to leave, and the other was sad and ready to cry, but the next moment he was carried here by this strange turtle.

The two teenagers who narrowly escaped did not know that their village had been buried by the collapsed peak.

After listening to the Tao and watching for a while, it was known that this place was close to the Roselle Swamp, and to get to Los Angeles, you need to pass through the Roselle Swamp. "This giant tortoise may be giving itself a ride."

As for the origin of the giant tortoise, although he did not know, he occasionally saw his mother pouring wine into the water, and guessed that there was something in the water. It's just that I never expected that the thing would be a turtle, and it would be so huge.

"Why did this giant tortoise bring Yiyi with you?" I don't understand.

"In any case, this girl should be sent back first." Thinking of this, Wen Dao said to He Yiyi: "Yiyi, I'll send you home first, go back about thirty miles from now on, I'm afraid it's dark when I get home, we have to hurry." ”

Although He Yiyi was very reluctant, he also knew that it was impossible for him to follow him to Los Angeles, and there was no way to leave his parents and brother, so he had to nod and agree.

"I'm worried that there will be danger ahead, we will walk from the old mother mountain, and we will need to dress up." Hearing this, he went to the side of the road, folded some branches and leaves, and braided his coat and hat.

After tidying up, the two quietly sneaked into the woods, preparing to touch the old mother mountain where cattle and sheep frequented opposite the village.

When I arrived at the Old Mother Mountain, it was almost nightfall, and I heard the Tao and said, "Look! ”。

He Yiyi looked in the direction of his finger. I saw that the towering Divine Finger Peak had become smaller than one circle, and it had become black and thin.

"Brother Dao, how can this be?"

"If the Divine Finger Peak collapses, our village will definitely be buried." Wen Dao stood stunned for a moment, and said in a daze.

"Mother, father, brother" whispered a few times, and He Yiyi finally came back to his senses. "Mother!" With a roar, the girl pulled her legs and ran forward, and Wendao hurriedly followed.

"That's my brother's voice." He Yiyi suddenly couldn't hide her excitement. Wen Dao also heard the mournful roar, vaguely what is the voice.

"Let's go over and have a look," he said, pulling out a fire and lighting it.

The two walked down the mountain in the dark along the path trodden by the cattle and sheep.

"Brother, is that you?" He Yiyi shouted as he walked.

"Yiyi? Yiyi! Several hoarse shouts drew closer and closer, and at last they were too hoarse to be heard.

"Ah Wei, we lit a fire on the cattle and horse road." Hearing this, he hurriedly shouted.

In a few moments, a black figure came to him, his clothes ragged and covered in blood in the firelight.

Before he could see his face clearly, the man in black grabbed him and hugged He Yiyi tightly. "Yiyi!" The hoarse whimpering was heartbreaking.

"Brother!" He Yiyi heard her brother's crying, and before she could speak, she just hugged her brother and cried.

Hearing this, he had already guessed the situation, and silently approached a few steps with the fire fold, as if he wanted to warm the brother and sister who hugged and cried with the firelight in his hand.

The three of them stayed up all night on the Old Mother Mountain. The next day, they circled around again. It was found that this place was already full of dangers, and it was really not advisable to stay for long.

The Heavenly Stone Pillar formed after the collapse of the Divine Finger Peak had been surrounded by a faint cloud and mist at some point. After the three of them went in, it was difficult to argue with things, and every time they turned around and turned out.

After discussion, the three of them decided to go to Los Angeles together to join Uncle Na Longwei, as for whether he took in the He brothers and sisters, it was only a matter of taking one step at a time.

In this way, the three surviving children of the village bid farewell to their homes step by step, walked into the Roselle Swamp, and fell to the end of the world together.

Roselle Swamp, what is and Wendao parallel to the ancient road. He Yiyi is still asleep on He Wei's back.

Today is the fourth day that the three of them have left the village. For three days, the three of them suffered in the Roselle swamp. When you are hungry, you can only rely on wild fruits and the occasional fish caught to satisfy your hunger, and when you are sleepy, you can only sleep by the fire on the grass and the ground.

He Wei and Wendao had to take turns guarding the fire at night. For several nights, wolves salivated around the fire until dawn.

The three of them were already sad and tired, and they were still covered in injuries, and it was difficult to support them after a few days.

He Yiyi has rarely spoken for a few days, sleeping more and waking up less all day, and she was already hot last night.

"Ah Wei, it's time to change me". Hearing this, he helped He Yiyi to carry it on his back, and the two of them walked a little faster.

After walking for a while, the rumbling sound of water was already heard in front of me, and the air was also full of water vapor, and the world-shattering sinkhole waterfall was finally approaching.

There is a small town next to the Tiankeng Waterfall, called Tiankeng Town, which arose because of the appearance of the Tiankeng Waterfall. There, the three of them should have a good repair.

Wen Dao said: "Ah Wei, there is Tiankeng Town ahead, your clothes are torn, I am afraid that people will pay attention." Why don't you wait for me here, I'll go to the town to buy some supplies first. ”

"Okay, Ah Dao, you should be careful, just find some inconspicuous stores and buy some at will."

"I'll be careful." After hearing this, he turned around and left.

Seeing this younger brother, who was two years younger than himself, so calm and wise, He Wei was both happy and grateful in his heart.

The Ho siblings sat down to rest behind a small hill. After a while, Wen Dao came back with two cloth bags on his back. One cloth bag contained ordinary clothes, and the other bag contained hot food and fried medicinal stones.

He Wei woke up his sister, the three of them ate hot food, and He Wei fed his sister some medicine.

It wasn't until they finished dressing that the three of them looked for water nearby to freshen up, and finally changed their recent embarrassment and turned into the appearance of a small town child.

Tiankeng Town is built along the upper reaches of the waterfall, with a population of 5,006, most of whom are foreign business travelers and business trips, and a small number of people come here to maintain their health. Therefore, from the powerful and rich to the hawkers and pawns, the underworld and the white road all converge here. The corresponding restaurants and inns are also varied, such as the high-level palace compound, and the low-level such as the street canopy.

It was noon when the three of them arrived. The three of them asked for a room in an ordinary hotel, slept beautifully, and did not go to the lobby on the first floor until the afternoon to prepare a decent meal. He Yiyi's spirit has finally improved.

After the three of them sat down, they ordered a few kinds of meat and vegetables, and they also deliberately asked for ice cream and snacks.

Wen Dao said: "Ah Wei, I don't know what the situation is when I go to Los Angeles, and I don't know if I can go back here, tomorrow we will go to see the scenery of the Tiankeng Waterfall." ”

He Wei said in a deep voice: "Of course you can see the scenery, but to be honest, I don't know if our brother and sister following you to Los Angeles will displease that Uncle Long, after all, no one wants to be troubled." When the time comes, you should go and explore first, forget it, Los Angeles is so big, we always have a way to make a living. ”

Hearing this, he said: "Let's not talk about these things first, anyway, no matter when, the three of us will take care of each other."

"Dao, thank you so much!" He was moved when he heard the voice.

Wen Dao smiled and said, "What are you talking about, see me outside?" ”

"Here comes the ice cheese, please take it from the guest officer!" At this time, the shopkeeper held a tray in one hand, and the tray handed over contained two dishes and a white cup.

The glass was filled with a full glass of white cheese and a red cherry on top, which was thought to be ice cheese.

He Yiyi stretched out his hand to hold it, but unexpectedly, there was a tingling pain in the tentacles. He Yiyi screamed in surprise and hurriedly shook his hand, and threw the entire cup out with this flick. The cup flew straight to the window, and the full glass of cheese was thrown on the chest of one of the people sitting by the window.

It is also He Yiyi who has never seen ice cheese, which is made of cold ice mixed with milk and saccharin in the depths of the Tiankeng Waterfall Cave, which is a specialty of Tiankeng Town. Due to the abnormal freezing, the cup is also a goblet, and you need to hold a long cup to avoid freezing your hands when eating.

He Wei and the three of them were taken aback, and quickly turned their heads to look.

I saw two people sitting at a table by the window, both in their forties.

Among them, the man in the white robe was unusually emaciated, and the white robe appeared very wide on him, like a child wearing the clothes of an adult. But this man was very tall, and he sat at the same table but was a head taller than the table next to him.

At this moment, this person's chest was sprinkled with white cheese, making his already pale face even more gloomy at the moment.

At the same table with him was a fat man in a yellow robe, and he was not very fat. It's just that this person has a round face, and even his hands and feet are short and round, so people always mistakenly think that he is fat. Unlike the thin man, the fat man looked at He Yiyi with a playful smile on his face at the moment.

"Girl, come here and lick it", without waiting for the three of them to reflect, the white-robed guest said gloomily.
