Sun Quancai, who lives in Shazhou Village, is an old man in his fifties.

He was sitting in his dilapidated yard at the moment, sullenly smoking a cigarette pouch and pot.

Recently, I have had a very bad time, and my mood is very restless......

Since more than two months ago, all kinds of natural disasters have come one after another!

The earthquake trembled, and the fields collapsed......

It's a mess of the people.

Almost all the courtyards of the houses in Shazhou Village have been razed to the ground!

The thatched house built by Sun Quancai at the end of the village was naturally not spared.

At that time, when the thatched house collapsed, he and his youngest son, the third in the family, were working in the fields, so there was no big problem.

It's just that when my wife was preparing a meal at home, she broke her leg by falling wood.

Fortunately, it was not life-threatening.

The earth shook so much at that time! It's really nice to be able to survive in such a situation......

As far as Sun Quancai knew, when the natural disaster came, nearly half of the people in Shazhou Village died.

Until now, many of the bodies buried in the gravel rubble have not been dug up.

Here, there is no way to live......

A lot of people are thinking of running away and running away to the town next door!

Sun Quancai also thought.

His other two sons have started families in the town next door, and they are also very filial.

When I was a child, I wanted to let him go to live in the town with his wife.

However, in the past, I was reluctant to give up a few acres of land on the tail of Shazhou Village......

I thought to myself, let's talk about it after the third child also marries his daughter-in-law.

So he stayed in the village all the time.

In order to take care of the crops and fruits and vegetables in the field, he built a thatched house near this field with his wife and third son.

However, who would have expected ......

A natural disaster came suddenly!

In the tremor of the earthquake, all the fields and houses were destroyed, and Shazhou Village was also abandoned.

My wife was also injured......

Suddenly, I felt that it was no longer interesting to stay here.

I thought that I might as well move to the town next door and reunite as a family for a few years of stable life.

However......

Due to the tremor of the earthquake, the road out of the village was blocked by falling rocks, and the bridge collapsed.

For a while, I can't leave if I want to!

Other than that......

With the passage of time, Sun Quan began to realize.

I'm afraid the situation in the town next door is not as optimistic as in Shazhou Village!

Now, more than two months have passed, and the road out of the village has not been smooth.

The two sons who live in the town have not been heard from either.

He was anxious all day long, he didn't eat well, he couldn't sleep well.

This morning, after cooking a decoction for his injured wife, feeding her and going to sleep, the old man, who was over half a hundred years old, stayed alone in the courtyard and smoked a cigarette bag and pot.

The third son ran to the bridge out of the village before dawn to help.

The able-bodied people of the village are working there in the hope that the road out of the village will be cleared as soon as possible.

Sun Quancai also wanted to help, but he also had to take care of his wife with a broken leg, so he stayed at home.

Now.

He finished his bag of cigarettes and couldn't help but sigh.

Raise your cloudy old eyes and look at the dilapidated courtyard.

I thought, "No matter how hard life is, I have to continue to live......

Instead of sighing and sighing idlely, helplessly worrying about the two sons outside the village, it is better to do the things in front of you first!

Anyway, the earth has quieted down, and it's uncomfortable to be idle.

Therefore, Sun Quancai plans to repair the thatched house that was built simply before.

At the very least, it can shelter from the wind and rain, so that the injured wife can live a little more comfortably

Some......

Just do what you say.

He put away the cigarette pouch and pot and stood up from the wooden mound.

Get ready to work.

There's a lot of work to do today......

But don't be in a hurry, just take your time!

However.

That is, the kung fu of standing up and putting away the cigarette pouch and pot.

When he raised his eyes again, he found that in the dilapidated courtyard, a figure other than his Sun Quancai appeared.

That figure appeared too suddenly! Sun Quancai was taken aback.

He hadn't even heard the slightest sound of footsteps before......

So he hurriedly looked at the figure.

It was a very extravagant woman.

Wearing a gray robe and a purple mink jacket over his shoulders......

It's just that you can't see the face.

Because she was wearing a black scarf at the moment, and her head and face were gathered in the black shadow.

The old man was puzzled.

He asked, "Girl? Who are you looking for? ……」

After asking

"Uncle, can you give me something to eat?"

The voice was a little hoarse.

Hearing her speak, most of my vigilance disappeared.

I thought to myself, "It's a passer-by begging for food...... Judging by her dress, she seems to be the daughter of a rich family...... It was probably because of natural disasters and disasters that he was displaced......

Only, why cover your face with a black veil?

"Is it some kind of disease? Don't you dare to see people with their true faces? ……」

Sun Quancai muttered in his heart for a long time, "It looks like ...... Indeed, there is a great difficulty! Otherwise, such a rich woman would not have gone to the poor countryside to beg for food......

Covering your face may be really sick, or maybe you have many rules in a rich family...... You can't see the living.

But it doesn't matter.

Since he is begging for food, if he has surplus food, he will give some food, and if he does not have it, he will send it away.

No matter so much gossip.

In the end, it was decided to give her a few nest heads.

So he said to the strange woman, "Wait a minute, I'll get you something to eat."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the simple thatched hut.

In the morning, my wife wanted to sleep after drinking the decoction, and she didn't eat much.

So there were only three wowotou and half a bowl of porridge left.

Since the woman is in trouble, let her eat the leftovers.

It's not easy to have a bad year in a catastrophic year, and if you have the spare energy to help, then help.

It is regarded as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue.

It is also possible to accumulate some blessings for the two sons who have not heard from them......

I hope that when they are suffering, they will also have more people to help them.

At this time, Sun Quancai walked into the hut.

Stop at the broken table near my wife's bedside.

Dig through the messy broken table and find half a piece of yellow paper.

Wrap the three nests in it.

But.

While packing the nest, a question suddenly occurred to him.

"Isn't the road in and out of the village collapsed? …… This is obviously an out-of-town woman! …… How did she get here?"

Could it be that there are other paths in and out of Shazhou Village?!

When he thought of this, the old man's heart was secretly happy.

"Since she can come in, we people in Shazhou Village can get out!"

Then you don't have to work hard to build roads.

With joy, his hands became sharp.

"Maybe there's another way! You'll have to ask her!"

After wrapping the nest head, he took the bowl again.

I'm going to give it to the woman as well.

However, as soon as I turned around.

But I found that Yuan

The woman who was supposed to be waiting outside actually entered the house at this moment!

Just standing close to yourself......

At this time, the black veil that had draped over her head and face was gone.

Faces were exposed.

However, when he saw the woman's face clearly, Sun Quancai was suddenly shocked.

"Smack! ——」

With a shake of his hand, he dropped the porridge bowl to the ground.

I saw that on the neckline of the mink jacket, there was a shriveled and strange face on it!

This scene frightened the old man to the point that he hurriedly wanted to open his mouth and shout loudly.

But in the next moment, the woman with the skeletal face pounced on him and bit him on the neck......

It's not a small movement!

At this time, Sun Quancai's wife, who was sleeping on the bed, was woken up by these movements.

So he opened his eyes and looked.

In a blur, I saw that my man's back was constantly twitching.

So he rubbed his eyes and asked, "The ...... the master What's wrong with you?"

It was at this moment that she finally saw clearly!

There was a woman who was sucking the old man Sun, whose body was trembling, into a dry corpse.

The process is very fast!

Less than three breaths!

As soon as he woke up, he saw that his husband had been sucked into a skeletal frame wrapped in clothes......

The old woman with a broken leg lying on the bed was suddenly dumbfounded.

Kala-

Sun Laohan's bones were thrown to the ground.

Bumping against the fragments of the porridge bowl makes a crisp and eerie sound.

The old woman was terrified.

Staring at the figure in front of his bed!

What caught her eye at this moment was a beautiful woman in a gray robe and a mink jacket over her shoulders......
