Chapter 040: The Fate of the Pigeon

The old buildings were demolished more than ten years ago, and the stones and bricks of the so-called city gate were scattered in all directions, leaving only a ten-meter-long pedestal, which was also pried into pieces, and became a place for children to seek excitement on the weekend.

Adjacent to the platform was built a row of brick and wood houses, which were the warehouses of the county seed company. Next to it are three old houses, also brick and wood structures, but small green bricks, in contrast to the red bricks of the warehouse, the old house is the former residence of their family in the previous world.

Xing Yi clearly remembered that the owner of the old house was surnamed Cai, a teacher, living alone, not married, and I don't know why.

In the year when the family was admitted to live in, Mr. Cai brought a child from other places to live with him, and later learned that it was the son of Mr. Cai's cousin.

Mr. Cai was not in good health, had serious leg problems, and was often sick and hospitalized, Xing Yi's father often went to visit, and when the situation was urgent, he went to the hospital with him, and when he was discharged from the hospital, he went back to him.

Teacher Cai is not small, and Xing Yi's father sweats profusely every time he comes back.

The work of the seed warehouse is special, not emphasizing the eight hours a day, but when the weather is clear, my father and the other two custodians will seize the time, bag by bag, bag by bag to dry on the stone yard dam, and in the evening, when the heat dissipates and the seeds are cool, they will gather the seeds in the sack and bring them back with the moonlight.

A few seeds will be left on the corners of the stone yard dam, and the clever birds will fly in search of food, and there will be beautiful pigeons in between.

One day, two pigeons came, flew from nowhere, stopped on the roof of Mr. Cai's house, and then landed on the Shiyuan Dam, gave them a few pieces of rice and a small bowl of water, and they became much more courageous and did not leave. Xing Yi found a cardboard box, hung it under the eaves with wire, and let them live in.

The pigeon is a female and a male, the male feathers are like raindrops, often bulging round and shining purple and blue chests, circling around the beautiful silver and gray hens, being artificially arranged to live together, having feelings, soon laying eggs, and raising a pair of cubs together.

He had saved a little money by doing small jobs, so he went to buy peas to feed the pigeons. Every time you sprinkle them on time, there are more than a dozen grains, you don't need to eat full, you can be half full, you must save. When eating, the young pigeons take the lead, and the old pigeons eat five or six grains, they will get out of the way, go around, and peck some sand and grass seeds to replenish.

The stone courtyard dam is made of stone slabs, in addition to the corners, there are gaps in the joints of the stone slabs, occasionally there will be small seeds falling down, human fingers can not take it out, can only let it germinate, but it does not grow, lack of water, no soil, and finally can only wilt and die.

The pigeon's beak is thin, which just replaces the fingers of people, killing two birds with one stone, solving hunger and eliminating waste.

This was a good thing, but the person in charge of the warehouse, even the director, came to greet him, saying that this would not work, the seeds in the cracks in the stones would rather rot than let the pigeons eat them, and they must be dealt with, otherwise they will bear the consequences.

The father replied, "All right, I will let the children keep the pigeons in lock and not let them go to the yard." ”

Even the director said: "That's not good, not a single fur can be left, staying is a hidden danger at all, who knows when they will slip over?" ”

My father persisted for two days, but on the third day, he couldn't bear it, and the result of persevering was two, one was to move out of the warehouse, at least two kilometers away. The other one doesn't move out, but it has to leave.

On the mountainside, three kilometers away from the warehouse, Xing Yi followed his father, bent down and climbed to the top, and his father carried a cardboard box containing pigeons, and it took more than an hour for the father and son to climb to the top of the mountain.

There is a cold wind on the top of the mountain, and if you are not careful, you will be blown down by the wind, and the pigeons will be released here.

Father's meaning, here let them go, fly high and see far, you can find a place where they can be accommodated and there is food to eat.

The doves seemed to be reluctant to let them go, surrounded by their heads, and refused to leave, no one expected that there was danger hidden behind the mountain rocks, and two harrier eagles came out from behind the mountain rocks that towered into the sky.

At that time, it felt as if the harrier eagle's claws were about to reach into his chest, Xing Yi quickly picked up the stone, threw it at the harrier eagle fiercely, and shouted hoarsely to the sky. But the distance was too far, and in the eyes of the harrier eagle, he was like a clown, with teeth and claws, but it had no effect.

The ferocious harrier eagle swooped one after the other, swooping down on the pigeons, and then breaking them apart......

This incident that happened in the past life cannot be forgotten in this life, as soon as I close my eyes, I see the pigeon feathers floating in the air, and the bloody claws of the harrier eagle.

What if time permits, go back ten years and let him turn back into a teenager? I must go to the director of Nalian to reason, and tell him that the pigeon is a symbol of peace, the pigeon has spirituality, and the soul of the people, during the war years, the people who have been lost in the deep mountains, the canyon into a desperate situation, is to rely on the pigeon to transmit information, get effective rescue......

Providence is like this, life is over, but it does not let him return to the ignorant and fantasy teenager, but let him return to the young man full of youthful vitality, choose a new job, start falling in love, learn to think about problems, and know how to cherish the past......

He put away his memories and went downstairs to the courtyard, where there was a small car, which was driven by two travelers from other provinces, who drove out to run errands during the day and drove back to park at night.

I couldn't see the color clearly in the dimness, and I guessed that it was the kind of moon gray, because it was sideways, and I couldn't see the license plate number.

There is a row of flower ponds at the root of the wall, half blocked by the body, and there are several kinds of flowers and plants such as cochineal, henna, and irises in the flower pond, which have just been soaked by the rain, and the fragrance is full of water molecules.

There were several wooden chairs against the wall to provide a place for travelers to rest, and he sat down at the end of the wooden chair, which was right opposite the gate and could see a section of the road outside.

The street lights are on, and a pair of young people walk on the main road, shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand, it is a good time for a date.

Xing Yi felt a hot current in her heart, and she really wanted to see Ni Shuzhen, but the time was unlucky, so she went to participate in the cross-examination.

There are eleven counties in the whole region, divided into five counties in the east and six counties in the west.

That is, twelve days.

Even counting yesterday and today, there are still ten days.

The decision is like this, first help Hongda Company to do a good job of the irrigation station, no matter where the next step is, during this period, explain to Hu Yanli, let her play her strengths, ten days later, arrange to meet Ni Shuzhen officially.

A guest came in, with a tape recorder, and it was playing all the way, and it was a football match. I guess I like it very much, and I turn up the sound very loudly, shaking the floor.

The sports commentator is full of energy, pronounced clearly, and is very famous at the moment and is very popular with fans.

Listening to the voice of the commentator, the picture of the lottery ticket being sold in the stadium appeared in front of my eyes.
