I didn't have time to think about it, waved away the wanton lightning, wiped away the dark clouds in the sky—it was gray again. The boy leaned over and looked at Chen Feng, obviously frightened by the gale. Trembling lips told Chen Feng that he was taking a bath, but his other hand pointed to the still tumbling and muddy water: "There are still two ......"

"Go and call someone!"

Before the boy could hear what he was saying, Chen Feng was already in the air, and a fierce man plunged into the murky water. The water is no longer as clear as usual, and you can feel a muddy smell when you hold your breath. Forcibly open your eyes, mud and sand gurgling in. But in this filth, I vaguely saw a shadow, a ball hugging each other. Swimming past the impression of this moment, I felt two soft bodies.

When the stupid boy's head came out of the water, his feet stepped on the soft mud, and he dragged the two lifeless children to the shore and struggled, but his feet slipped and fell back into the muddy water.

The sudden fall caused dirty water to pour into Chen Feng's nose, and the suffocating feeling made him subconsciously open his mouth. The dirty water rushed into his throat again, and he panicked, and a child slipped out of his hand and sank quickly.

The sound of talking sounded in my ears, as if two people had jumped down. In the next moment, he had been pulled ashore, and there was a frightened boy standing on the shore, next to Erbao's wife and a man he didn't know. Two naked men were carrying the two children upside down, and the children's hands swayed weakly as the two men jumped. The fatter man is Erbao, and the thinner one is still a teenager, the son of Erbao, the teenage father.

The empty street soon became noisy, and Erbao's wife called all the men who could help, including the father and mother of the three children. For a while, the woman's cry blew away the gray moisture, and her frightened eyes looked at the two children with hope in their eyes, and put down the child with purple faces.

Hope turned into despair, and the women desperately picked up their respective sons, crying and grabbing the ground. The man sat in the muddy water on the shore and howled.

No one noticed Chen Feng, he swayed and crawled to the woman's side, breaking her hand and snatching the still soft and young body. He knew he was dead, but he still gave the child first aid. But no matter how much he helped the child to breathe, no matter how he tried to restore his heartbeat, all he got in exchange was the shaking of heads and sighs from onlookers.

Maybe it was self-blame, he didn't expect that just a few seconds of anger would cost two lives. In the complicated eyes of everyone, he seemed to see his grandfather staring at him on crutches. Close your eyes, blow hard into your child's mouth, and grasp the thread of life through your child's body.

"Maybe I can't bring you back to life, but I should be able to keep you from dying." Chen Feng thought to himself. "Tie a knot in this line, take those few minutes out, and let the future and the past come together......"

With a cough, a mortal miracle occurred before everyone's eyes. The man snatched his son in his arms, and the woman knelt on the ground and thanked Chen Feng for her kindness.

Another man saw that Chen Feng did not give up, and he also followed his example and blew and beat his son. Seeing that the child in Chen Feng's hand regained consciousness, the light in his eyes changed from despair to hope, and from hope to despair. Forced to stalk his neck and not look at the woman's eyes with an unknown future. Tears rolled in his bloodshot eyes, stubbornly refusing to fall.

Even now, before Chen Feng's magic went bankrupt, before people's hopes were disappointed, he pushed away the child's father and rubbed it on the child. It doesn't matter if this action doesn't seem to be saving people, and whether it's really useful or not, he just wants to touch the slippery body in front of him, while the thread of time hasn't faded from him.

Finally caught, he had to hold on, he had to pinching out this horrific experience accurately. Wake up, kid!

A faint cry, wonderfully like the cry of the newborn......

Grandpa's courtyard once again became the focus of people, and Chen Feng once again became the center of discussion. The villagers of several streets crowded the small courtyard, waiting for Chen Feng to wash off the mud and sand from Erbao's house, and came in through the door wearing big pants.

The moment he stepped into the gate, Chen Feng was greeted by the kneeling of three pairs of old men. It seems that the two children have been taken to the hospital by their parents for examination, and the grandparents are waiting in the yard to thank the life-saving benefactor.

The situation in front of him frightened the dizzy stupid boy, and the three pairs of old men knelt in front of them and thanked them for a thousand thanks, and Chen Feng stood for several seconds before he understood what was going on. I was at a loss to help, but I could only hunch over and talk to the person kneeling on the ground.

There was a cough from the house, and Grandpa appeared at the door of the hall with a cane, and the cigarette pouch and pot in his hand were smoking.

"Get up, how can he be a doll worthy of your worship."

The excitement didn't end until a call came from the hospital at noon to report safety. In the evening, the families of the two children actually worked together to set up a banquet and carried the two to the house almost stiffly. A large courtyard was filled with tables and chairs, and the few neighborhoods around it were gathered together. In front of life, in front of feelings, the livelihood that can't be put down on weekdays seems to be unimportant, and it seems that only toasts in turn can express their inner gratitude.

The wine culture in my hometown is very sound, and there are always countless rules for everyone to toast. But it didn't take long for Chen Feng to tell how many glasses he should drink and who he should drink with first, and there were always two catties of liquor in one night. Although he didn't drink badly, there was always a pound and two pots, but after all, he drank too much. When the banquet dispersed, the three young men took turns carrying him on his back before he was reluctantly sent home.

In a daze, the silly boy seemed to know that he had vomited several times, and it felt like several people were helping him clean up, and then he fell asleep. When I opened my eyes, it was already the second half of the night, and my grandfather should have not slept all the time, and he was wiping his grandson's arms with a towel. Seeing that the child opened his eyes, he put the towel back in the basin and brought a bowl of instant noodles that had been cooled to Chen Feng.

"Eat something, vomit it all."

Chen Feng took the bowl and chopsticks, glanced into the bowl, and took a bite hesitantly. After a night of turning over rivers and seas, he really has no appetite at all. But my stomach was empty, and I had to eat something, but I never expected it to be instant noodles.

"Master, what time is it?" Sitting cross-legged on the kang, Chen Feng said weakly. Grandpa seemed to have added a handful of firewood to the kang, which made him panic all over his body and sweat.

"Two o'clock. Still want to throw up? ”

"No more throwing up."

Seeing that his grandson was fine, the grandfather relaxed and sat aside. lit a cigarette that I don't know who gave it, it seems to be the kind of "Tarzan" for more than 20 yuan. Smoke spread through the room, wisps of air, stirred by the electric fan, and rushed towards the open windows.

"It's time for rain, right?" I took another bite of noodles and stared blankly at the cracks in the concrete floor, as if I was saying to my grandfather, and as if I was talking to myself.

Except for the crackling of moths around the energy-saving lamps and the whirring of the air flow of the electric fan, everything in the room is quiet.

"Iron Bull." Grandpa stood up tremblingly, extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray on the coffee table, turned around and sat back on the kangyan. With cloudy eyes open, I watched my grandson laboriously eat a bite of noodles.

"What's going on with those two boys today?"

Hearing his grandfather's words, Chen Feng was slightly stunned, did not speak, and tried his best to restrain himself from making himself appear nervous. But the speed at which he ate inadvertently accelerated, and he was still picking up and eating one by one just now, but now he swallowed it in his stomach one by one.

"You blew that gust of wind, right?"

The chopsticks stopped, and he turned his head to stare at his grandfather's old face and trembling fingers. Expressionlessly, he waited for the old man's next words. He could only wait, not squeezing a sound out of his twitching throat, trying to control his trembling breathing, even though he knew it was almost impossible.

"Tie Niu, it's time to marry a daughter-in-law." Grandpa changed the subject, cloudy tears moistened the old face, and the gray eyebrows were twisted together. "There have been immortals in our family, this is what my grandfather told me. I know this is true, and I know from the day I was born that I Tie Niu is not a grandson born to me. ”

Taking out a blue-patterned handkerchief, the old man wiped his tears with great difficulty and wiped his snot dry. It seemed that he suddenly saw something, and his demeanor changed imperceptibly, becoming solemn and strong. With a deep sigh, he continued:

"I also want to open, I Tie Niu is not a grandson born to me, I will bring Tie Niu up, marry him a daughter-in-law, and then bring a great grandson......"

"Don't you have a cow?" Chen Feng interrupted his grandfather's words and stared at the gray kang weir deadly.

……

The cramped bedroom fell silent again, and Grandpa slowly finished his cigarette, lit another one, and finished it again. The heat in my heart was mixed with the suffocating humidity of the summer, and the slimy sweat left on the banquet just now, which made people restless.

Grandpa didn't continue, and Chen Feng didn't explain anything. It seems that everyone in this family has secrets, and everyone knows it, but no one wants to be the first to explain it.

"It's so tiring to live." Chen Feng thought to himself.

Soon after, Grandpa heard the sound of water in the hut, coming from the yard. It must be the iron bull, who is pouring cold water on his body with a water scoop again. I don't listen to how many times I say it, maybe one day I will be honest if I really get sick. But in retrospect, this kid doesn't seem to have ever gotten sick from this kind of thing. He sighed and closed his eyes.

Outside the window, there are all kinds of water sounds, such as the sound of tap water rushing into a bucket, the sound of water scooping out, the sound of a grandson pouring water over his head, and the sound of a towel rinsing under the faucet. There's another sound of water, and the kid must have been peeing in the yard again.

Since he was born, he has been like this, and he can't walk when he sees water. It turned out that when it rained, they would run into the yard, and they would sit in the puddle which was deep. At that time, he liked to sit at the door and watch his grandson roll in the water, rolling like a little mud monkey, and he couldn't catch his whole body slipping up and down.

In his eyes, it is good for Tie Niu to be naughty, if it weren't for the fear that the child would freeze, he would have enjoyed the scene of his grandson rolling in muddy water. Sometimes he would hold the child and help him pee into the puddle, and the little white water column would rattle in the rain, just like the sound outside the window now.

How naughty this kid is, he just peed into the puddle and immediately jumped in again. When he has had enough, he washes him in a basin of water with warm water, which can wash out several pots of mud soup.

Thinking about it, grandpa smiled, in order to scare his grandson, he often used copper cigarette bags and pots to compare in front of the child, and once it really burned the child's cow, and there was such a big blister on the egg. The grandson howled in pain, and the grandfather shed tears in distress, holding his grandson's chick× and the chicken sat all night and didn't dare to move, for fear that the child would scratch it himself. Fortunately, after a few days, the blisters dried and a layer of skin fell off the eggs. Thinking of his grandson's such a tender gadget actually burned himself, his heart hurts violently until now.

Got up again, and stood at the door of the hall with a cane. Seeing his grandson's stronger body under the light, with a strong back, thick thighs, and a round and straight ass, I suddenly felt indescribably proud.

"Just wash it, don't catch a cold."

"Right away."

This kid has really grown up, and there is a gust of wind when he runs by. is no longer the little iron cow who can be held in his arms and run full of kang, he is already a big man of more than 1.8 meters. I think I was the same as him when I was young, the flesh on my body was as hard as iron, except that I was a little shorter than him, it was simply a mold.

"It's a good day to be young, it's time to marry a daughter-in-law for me Tie Niu! It's a pity that his grandmother died early, and she hadn't seen the Iron Bull, otherwise she would have been so happy......"
