On a spring afternoon, the sun is shining.

In the territory of Nanyang County, by the mountain spring stream.

Gurgling water flows out of the mountain stream, happily through the gravel beach, and heading off into the distance.

Chen Erzhu was holding Biao Ge in front of him, carrying his son behind him, holding a cold and shining machete, and staggered out of the mountain forest.

For half a day and a night, he didn't know how he survived.

Chen Erzhu staggered to the edge of the stream, as if he wanted to squat down and drink saliva, but before he squatted down, the whole person could no longer control and fell to the side, in order not to hurt the child in his arms, he sat back heavily, and he couldn't get up when he sat down.

"Daddy...... Daddy......"

Xiaohuzi was behind him, and was hit by Chen Erzhu, almost holding his breath, he hurriedly untied the cloth belt on his body: "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”

He didn't want his father's back last night, but his feet hurt so badly. Thinking about resting on his father's shoulder and coming down, who knew that he was asleep.

"Uncle."

Lu Yangge raised his little face, raised his hand to wipe the blood foam on the corner of Chen Erzhu's mouth, and there were tears in his eyes, "Uncle, does it hurt?" ”

The little girl didn't know that her uncle had already exhausted his strength during this day and night of running, but he didn't dare to fall.

Chen Erzhu was afraid that if he fell, his two children would be eaten by wild beasts in this mountain forest, and there would be no scum left.

"It's okay...... It's okay...... Song ...... Don't be afraid of ......"

Chen Erzhu gasped heavily, like a fish that had been out of the water for a long time. The blood foam at the corner of his mouth gathered more and more, Lu Yangge wiped and flowed, wiped and flowed, and finally left a blood mark on the corner of his mouth, drop by drop on his clothes.

"Uncle......"

Lu Yangge opened his mouth wide to cry, but Chen Erzhu covered his mouth, "Don't cry, don't be afraid......"

The little girl choked and nodded, and stubbornly wiped the blood foam from the corner of Chen Erzhu's mouth with her sleeve over and over again.

"Whew...... Call...... Whew......"

Chen Erzhu gasped for a long time, and with the assistance of his son, he untied the cloth belt on his body and put down his son behind him and Xiao Yangge in his arms.

Xiao Ge's feet stepped on the ground and sighed with satisfaction.

This way curled up and held in his uncle's arms, the taste was really uncomfortable.

As soon as Xiaohuzi's feet landed, he immediately turned his head vigilantly to look at the bushes behind him, and he vaguely seemed to hear the fishy smell of wild beasts coming from the bushes. When the wind blows, the branches of the trees sway and rustle, and it makes people feel that the sound they just heard seems to be their own hallucination.

Chen Erzhu knelt on the ground, first holding on to the machete he was holding.

This machete was specially created for him by Lu Sange, it was sharp and pressing, and it was his most convenient weapon.

Chen Erzhu stuck the knife in the stone crack of the river beach, and the red silk that Xiuniang tied to him on the knife fluttered in the wind, and it was already slightly overcolored. Under the light of the sun, the blade glowing with cold light shocked the ghostly spirits that were about to move behind them.

"Dad, get up." Xiaohuzi leaned over to help Chen Erzhu.

"Tiger ......"

Chen Erzhu stopped his son from holding his hand, and said word by word: "Take, sister, sister, go." No, yes, come back......"

"Dad, where are my sister and I going?"

Xiaohuzi didn't understand where his father wanted him to take his sister.

"Go find your aunt, they are at the grandfather's house in Yangge, Nanyang County. Tell...... Tell your aunt and eldest brother and second brother that it was the government and Qingfeng Village that colluded to harm my third brother......"

Speaking of the word third brother, Chen Erzhu only felt a choke in his chest, and a fishy sweet breath rushed to his throat.

"Poof......

Bright red blood sprayed on the rocks in front of him, red and dazzling, red and dazzling.

How much grain did those white-eyed wolves eat from their Lujiazhuang, and they actually ...... Unexpectedly......

Chen Erzhu didn't know if what he was doing was right for a while, these were just two children, they knew the wolf ambition of Qingfeng Village, could they really go all the way to Nanyang County?

"Daddy...... Father...... You get up, you get up......" Xiaohuzi still wanted to help Chen Erzhu up from the ground.

Daddy sat on the rocky beach like this, which made him feel very scared.

"Daddy is tired."

Chen Erzhu's throat rolled, and there were faint blood and tears in the corners of his eyes: "Huzi, you take your sister to go first, Dad rests, don't forget what Dad said." ”

He is not afraid that Xiaohuzi will not find the Shen family, this child is very clever.

Every year, when the Lu family sends a gift to the Shen family, it is Chen Erzhu who sends it, and Xiaohuzi follows it a few times, and the Shen family who lives in Nanyang County, Xiaohuzi is still very familiar.

The only thing he was afraid of was whether these two children, without him by his side, would be able to walk safely to Nanyang County.

"Uncle."

Lu Yangge squatted in front of Chen Erzhu, wiped the blood foam from the corner of Chen Erzhu's mouth, and reached out to touch the hem of Chen Erzhu's clothes, "Yang Ge will beat his uncle's legs, and his uncle will not be tired." ”

Her father is like this, running around outside for a day, and when he comes back at night, as long as Yang Ge clenches his little fists and pounds his legs and shoulders, his father will not be tired.

Now that my uncle is tired, as long as I beat my uncle's legs, my uncle will not be tired.

"Song ......"

Chen Erzhu blocked Lu Yangge's hand, he couldn't let the children look at his legs and feet, he was afraid of scaring the children.

This mountain road, he walked eagerly and hurriedly. The shoes on his feet had rotted halfway through. His feet were worn out, and even his legs were blurred with flesh and blood, and white bones could be faintly seen in some places.

It was because of these two children that he was able to walk out of the mountains and forests with one foot of blood and one foot of mud.

Chen Erzhu raised his hand and touched Lu Yangge's little head in his arms: "Biaoge wants to listen to your little tiger brother, go to your mother, your eldest brother and second brother, do you know?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Yang Ge nodded obediently, "Yang Ge is obedient." ”

Chen Erzhu smiled with satisfaction, and he turned his head to look at his son seriously: "Huzi, take my sister away, leave now." ”

"Daddy......"

Huzi knew his father's temper and said nothing. I could only cry and get up and pull my sister forward.

The two children looked back as they walked, they didn't know why their father (uncle) wanted them to go, but they knew that they had to be obedient, and their father (uncle) said to let them go, so they had to go.

When Chen Erzhu saw the two children, he stood in front of the stream and hesitated, his heart became more and more anxious, and he couldn't help yelling: "Hurry up, don't come back, don't come back......"

"Daddy......"

Xiaohuzi shouted with a crying voice, wiped his tears, and pulled Lu Yangge into the still cool stream.

He has to be obedient, he is now his brother, his father said, his brother wants to protect his sister, he wants to hand over his sister to his aunt, he is the best brother.

Chen Erzhu watched as the two children trudged across the stream, staggering to the meadow in the distance, and then walked forward, through the bush, which is the county road in Nanyang County.

As long as they are on the county road, the two children are considered safe.

At the very least, it's safer than in this mountain forest.

The figures of the two children slowly disappeared from the field of vision, Chen Erzhu pulled out the knife inserted in the side, slowly sat up straight and turned to look behind him.

In the mountain forest behind him, two skinny lone wolves slowly walked out.

These two wolves actually followed them for a long time, and Chen Erzhu always knew.

The reason why the wolf has been holding still is that he is waiting for this opportunity.

Spring had just begun, and they hadn't eaten for a long time, and this time, the blow had to be hit, otherwise they would lose their wolves to survive the long winter.
